Righteousness
Exalts a Nation
But
Sin is a Disgrace to any people.
(Proverbs
14:34)
If
you Fully Obey the Lord your God
And
carefully Follow His Commands I give you today,
The
Lord your God will Set you High above All the Nations on Earth.
All
the Blessings will come upon you and accompany you
If
you Obey the Lord your God:
You
will be blessed in the City and blessed in the Country.
The
Fruit of your womb will be blessed,
And
the crops of your land and the young our your livestock--
The
calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
You
basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.
You
will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
The
Lord will Grant that the Enemies who rise up against you
Will
be Defeated before you.
They
will come at you from one direction
But
flee from you in seven.
The
Lord will send a blessing on your barns
And
on everything you put your hand to.
The
Lord will Establish you as His Holy People,
As
He Promised you on Oath,
If
you Keep the Commands of the Lord your God
And
Walk In His Ways.
Then
All the Peoples on Earth will see
That
you are called by the Name of the Lord,
And
they will Fear you.
The
Lord will grant you abundant Prosperity--
In
the Fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock
And
the crops of your ground--
In
the Land He Swore to your Forefathers to give you.
The
Lord will Open the Heavens,
The
Storehouse of His Bounty,
To
send rain on your Land in Season
And
to bless All the Work of your Hands.
You
will Lend to Many Nations
But
Borrow from None.
THE
LORD WILL MAKE YOU THE HEAD , NOT THE TAIL.
If
you Pay Attention to the Commands of the Lord
And
Carefully Follow Them,
You
will Always be at the Top, Never at the Bottom.
DO
NOT TURN ASIDE FROM ANY OF THE COMMANDS I GIVE YOU TODAY,
TO
THE RIGHT OR TO THE LEFT,
FOLLOWING
OTHER GODS AND SERVING THEM.
(Deuteronomy
28:1-14)
This
is what Righteousness means before the Living God
And
what it brings.
Sin
is a Disgrace to any People
And
brings the Opposite of Righteousness before God Almighty.
Deuteronomy
28:15-68, tells what happens to a People
Who
Disregard the Commands of the Lord.
Every
Christian should understand
That
it is God and God Alone Who determines what Righteousness is;
That
it is Following His Commands;
That
those [or a Nation] who follow His Commands will be Blessed
And
those [or a Nation] that does not will be Cursed.
Today,
America is a Sinful Nation and Cursed because of this.
The
only thing that will remove the Curse is Repentance.
The
Challenge for every Christian in America,
Is
to maintain their Personal Righteousness
In
the midst of a Cursed Nation.
As
the Curse upon America Widens the Apostasy will Widen.
There
will be a Great Falling Away from the Faith.
(Matthew
24:10; 2 Thessalonians 2:3; Daniel 8:12)
As
Christ Jesus told us:
Because
of the Increase of Wickedness,
The
love of MOST will Grow Cold,
But
he [she] who Stands Firm to the End will be Saved.
(Matthew
24:12,13)
