A Bankrupt Future If We Don’t Repent

“The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.”
— Proverbs 22:7
We have given up the free enterprise economy the founders of this nation gave to us. We have followed the socialists, albeit a number of paces behind them, down that disastrous road. We are suffering the consequences right now. But we haven’t even begun to see the consequences that will be coming one day.
Our politicians are recklessly spending money like there is no tomorrow. The federal government spends regularly more than we take in. But if we just took the figure of $1.4 trillion (which is smaller than the amount of our federal spending) and you stacked it up in dollars, it would reach 88,000 miles—one-third of the distance to the moon. This is incredibly selfish because the government has no money of its own.
Author Rus Walton put it very well when he said: “Government is not a producer; it is a taker, a taxer, and a spender. Every dollar spent by the public sector is a dollar the government must take from the private sector, from the workers and earners and investors. The dollar taken by government cannot be spent or invested by that productive private sector.”
What is happening is that too many Americans are living off of the public trough—they are living off of the sweat and labor of their fellow Americans. 
And who will pay for all this? 
Our children and our children’s children. 
Because we have turned our back on God, our national greed is destroying the future.
Pray for revival.
Dear God, help us to get our national house in order and to stop spending money we don’t have. Thank You for what You have given us and help us to be good stewards of that which You have entrusted to us…
BY GOD’S STRENGTH,
WRONGS CAN BE RIGHTED.
