The great commander Joshua gathered the nation of Israel to assemble at the sacred place of Shechem to share the word of the Lord:
“I have given you a land for which you did not labor, and cities which you did not build, and you dwell in them; you eat of the vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant.’“Now therefore, fear the LORD, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the LORD” Joshua 24:13-15
Joshua’s farewell address to a nation who had to choose which way they were going to move forward. Worshiping the gods that their forefathers worshiped and forgetting the faithfulness, the protection, the mercy and grace of Yahweh, or would they choose that day to consecrate themselves to the Lord and remember that it is His grace and His mercy that brought about their deliverance.
If they wanted to see the prosperity and the fulfillment of His covenant promises, then they must serve Him and Him alone.
God has kept America safe. Though she is not perfect, she has a purpose and that is to be a beaming light of Hope to the Nations of the World. We must realize, it is His Mercy and Grace, that has allowed us to prosper in such a way, and it is His Mercy and Grace now, that we need more than ever.
We must return back to Him, to desire Him, to serve Him, to glorify him, to trust Him, to welcome Him as the true commander in Chief over the affairs of men. If we truly want to see all God has for this nation come to pass, then we must choose this day to serve Him will all of our heart.
