High time to get on our knees!

Postby AliveAgain » Fri May 11, 2012 2:54 am

I heard on the news here yesterday that your president (whom I up until then actually thought seemed pretty good) approved of gay marriages. It is spreading all over the world, and that tells me we are in trouble. Big trouble.
Jesus says that at his coming it will be like in the days of Noah. People will marry and be given in marraige, and then distaster will overtake them suddenly. They knew nothing until the flood came. According to some, that statement means gay marriages. It was approved then, apparently, and is now. Also, the section in Revelation where it is spoken of the grapes of wrath, it is supposed to mean when we ny law bless something that God calls sin.
I feel powerless and somewhat drained by all this. It seems unstoppable and it does not seem that people want it stopped. It is like this very dark force mercilessly sweaping in and taking over. I don´t know why it isn´t stopped. I know there are those who do pray. But also, maybe, there are too many of us who do not. And who actually might think that this is ok. Sin is never ok, no matter what face it wears. I would like to encourage all of you to fall on your knees and pray. Pray for revival, for an awakening both inside the church and outside of it. And also for strength so stand up for the truth no matter what the cost. Cuz I have a nasty feeling things could get a bit rough in future....

Well, the Bible warns that things are not going to get better which is scary because I think they are already pretty bad, but I definitely feel a dark cloud over America right now. I will refrain from giving too much of my opinion about our current president, but I find it funny that on the brink of another election he comes out with this statement when he receives much of his funding and endorsements through the Hollywood crowd.

The wonderful thing about living in America is that if one person approves of something, we all do not have to approve of it or follow his wishes. We are free to choose (as is our President), and I know all those on this board will make the right choice!

We definitely need to pray for our country --- for many, many reasons---

We need to remember, honor and live by our motto--"In God We Trust"!!!

The good thing about America is that we have yet to be persecuted physically for our beliefs as Christians. When that starts happening, we're in some serious trouble. Fang, it becomes worrisome when it's the president of the United States saying these things because he's the one guy that can do something lawful about these things. Kristy, I seriously understand your concerns. We are living in dark times and need to pray in a serious way. May God be with us.
