The Game Plan For
Our Nation

"When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice:but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn".(Proverbs 29:2)

Then we need righteous leaders! When I take a stroll back and research the records of our forefathers. It is clear that these men truly engaged the political culture with Godly influence. I am greatly inspired. Today, politics is view by most as something to be shunned and most run away from opportunities to influence in this arena. Influence is God's way to impact the culture! be it politics, the media, the Internet or education. When we draw back we suffer, from our own lack of involvement, of course. We are the salt of the earth! If we do not impact a certain culture with our Godly influence, then how can righteousness flourish?

The unit of the Nation is the individual. The Government represents only the average intelligence of the units comprising that Nation. Therefore, our work is with the unit. When the thought of the individual has been renewed, the collective thought will take care of itself, but we try to reverse the process, in that; we try to change governments instead of individuals, which cannot be done. But with a little intelligent organized effort the present destructive thought could be readily changed into constructive thought. ~Charles Haanel~

"Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a disgrace to any people." Proverbs 14:34

The Internet is covered with pornography, 60% of websites are porn related. Now, when I embarked upon the construction of this website, it was not to do warfare with those sites, however; it was a way for me to render service and express my desire and passion for writing. ("I feel that the highest service that one can render is to teach mankind the knowledge of the truth, of his true Divine Image and his oneness with the Father through Jesus Christ, thus empowering him to reach his fullest potential".). I learned after the fact, that the Internet was 60% influenced by pornography. Now, knowing this, I am elated that I embarked upon this medium and that I am effecting a Godly influence in a culture where it is apparently needed.

America is a great nation, with a beautiful heritage! You are the salt of the earth; you are the light of the world! Love your country, have a very healthy respect for your Commander In Chief or President and for all of those who are in authority.

"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions,and giving of thanks, be made for all men;For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour" I Timothy 2:1-3

You should earnestly pray for your leaders. Pray that they, by wise counsel shall make war, in a multitude of counselors there is safety". (Proverbs 24:6)

Pray for the President, "The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water, he turns it whithersoever he will". (Proverbs 21:1)

Pray that our leaders will humbly submit themselves to God, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" James 4:7
When we are contemplating a candidate for office we should consider the values and principles that they stand for, the political affiliation, class or experience should be irrelevant. Consider a candidate who runs for the whole of mankind. One who has not limited himself/herself within the confines of a particular class or even within the walls of the United States of America, but one that can open themselves as a channel or beacon, if you will; for the positive advancement of the whole world.

The D Day Prayer by Franklin D. Roosevelt is my favorite "Address To The Nation". As an attorney pleads a case for his client. FDR pleaded his case to evoke the providential hand of God for our nation and the whole of humanity. Lets examine below:

My Fellow Americans:

Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our Allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far.

And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:

Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.

Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.

They will need Thy blessings. Their road will be long and hard. For the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces. Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again; and we know that by Thy grace, and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest -- until the victory is won. The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war.

For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and goodwill among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.

Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.

And for us at home -- fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas, whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them -- help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.

Many people have urged that I call the nation into a single day of special prayer. But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in a continuance of prayer. As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking Thy help to our efforts.

Give us strength, too -- strength in our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces.

And let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.

And, O Lord, give us faith. Give us faith in Thee; faith in our sons; faith in each other; faith in our united crusade. Let not the keeness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events, of temporal matters of but fleeting moment -- let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.

With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy. Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogances. Lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace -- a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men. And a peace that will let all of men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.

Thy will be done, Almighty God.

Amen.

Franklin D. Roosevelt - June 6, 1944

I absolutely love this "Presidential Address". This President clearly understood "The Will of God" and was able to intelligently formulate it into this "Address to the Nation." The Will Of God is "More Life and More Life Abundantly"! If you look at the areas that I have highlighted, these ideas point in that direction. I am deeply inspired by his knowledge of God's Plans and Patterns, how he carefully chose his words and the humility in which he delivered them.

I can imagine the confidence FDR had in the assurance of our victory because of the knowledge of the word of God. "And this is the confidence that we have in him: if we ask for anything according to his will, he listens to us. "And if we know that he listens to our requests, we can be sure that we have what we ask him for". I John 5:14-15

Our forefathers embraced righteousness. Our nation's heritage is one that is built upon Godly Principles. We see the influence of it inscribed on our medium of exchange, our monuments, within our courts, the Declaration of Independence, our national anthem, the Liberty Bell, we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, it's influence is upon our Flag and our President is sworn in on the Bible and much more.

The illusion of "separation of church and state" has almost but diminished our possible wider influence in our Nation's culture. Our influence is desperately needed, and in every aspect of it. If we are to see our nation return to her former Glory.

The term Separation of Church and State is actually an inverted derivative of a statement made by Thomas Jefferson in The (Connecticut) Danbury Baptist Letter, which he wrote to calm them of their fear of government interference. He wanted to assure them that the state would stay out of the church's affairs. What he actually wrote was that "a wall of separation" had been erected to protect them. Now, mind you; this letter was written 10 years after the First Amendment was composed. View unedited and final draft letter here: "Unedited Danbury Letter" "Final Danbury Letter"

The Constitution makes two declarations in regard to Government's authority concerning religion. There is "The Establishment Clause", which states that the congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion and then there is "The Free Exercise Clause", which states....prohibiting the free exercise thereof. These two laws restrict the government concerning the laws they pass and their interference with religion!

However, the two Clauses are now being promulgated exclusively to keep the church out of the states affairs!

There are no restrictions on religion, other than; a religion cannot become a state religion! The phrase "Separation Of Church and State, does not exist in our Constitution!

The term Separation Of Church and State was first used by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1878, thereafter; it was used in several other cases and now the term is flourishing throughout our nations culture and has been adopted by a few other countries as well! A foundation built upon a lie, can any good come of it?

It is God's Game Plan that we impact our Nation's culture with righteousness. Our nations "Righteous Deficit" can be renewed by our continued, courageous involvement. Let our Nation be on earth as it is in Heaven. Let Righteousness Reign!

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. Edmund Burke
