Pray for our nation
Purposely Follow
The
Founding Fathers of the United States understood the intense responsibility
they had in establishing a government for a new nation. Faith in God and His
leading determined their actions. Thomas Jefferson penned these words within
the Declaration of Independence: “With a firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes,
and our sacred Honor.”

By wisdom a house is built, and by
understanding it is established.
Proverbs 24:3

Even
before convening with the Continental Congress, Benjamin Franklin wrote an
essay in 1757 in which he advised, “Do not depend too much upon your own
industry and frugality…for they may all be blasted without the blessing of
Heaven.” In his autobiography, Franklin wrote that his daily prayers began with
these words: “Bountiful Father! Merciful Guide! Increase in me that wisdom.”
For many of the Founders, Bible reading was a part of their daily lives. They
stood in awe of the Lord. They purposefully followed His guidelines to
establish the best government for a free people.
Be encouraged in these difficult times to study Scripture. Pray for wisdom and discernment. Intercede for government leaders that they might know the One who guides. Then they will understand what is God’s best for this country.
