Oh Say Can We See

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

How did we let this happen? We were complacent and believed that all people would do the right thing. Only now we see that the enemy is at work, deceiving and blinding the eyes of our very own people. Our Nation is under attack. Our God given decent rights are under attack. Our brothers blood is speaking………………..

 

Oh Say Can We See

What so proudly they hailed
At the twilights last gleam
Oh the stars and the stripes
Have we forgotten the dream

Oh say can you see
And did you ever imagine
That our Great Nation
Would shrink back, lagging

I can hear echoes of heroes
Telling this story
Accounts from history
Reliving the glory

If we could for a moment

Let’s get silent and hush

Listen in to their stories

What are they are speaking to us

Our hopes and our dreams yes very real
At the twilights last gleam
We fought with all our might because
We were one and shared this dream
The rockets’ red glare
burst right before our eyes.
So bright were the flares
They seemed to light up nights sky

This Great Nation, USA
The One Ordained by God
have you forgotten
Do you drift off and nod

When on your bed
Your head soft pillow lay
Do you stop and think
Freedoms price we paid

Consider and ponder
about your entitlement,
It was at our expense
Oh now deemed violent.

We believed in freedom
Forever may it ring,
Fight and secure our land
Our hearts song did sing

A place for moral freedom to grow
Usher in The Gospel hope
A land Blessed by God
Now on an immoral tightrope

Columbus did sail
With a cry in his soul
Did he really understand
The call or his role

The rebar of this country
History acknowledges is Christianity
How did we lose our way
To Accept this insanity

001
The Cross

Oh say will you look
At Amber waves of grain
remember our families
The trials and strain

Finders keepers,
if perfectly honest
losers weepers,
You still desire this promise

What so proudly we hailed
Now placing in your hands
We are counting on you
To preserve our great land

Many prayers were prayed
With rockets’ red glare
Over nights dark sky
Glance back; take a look if you dare

Now we ask one simple gesture
Just one moment on bended knee,
Praying America, America
God shed His grace on thee

A stanza
“O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!

img_8928 in the year of our Lord. That my friends is Jesus Christ. Not Buddha, not Mohammad, not Allah. No, the Lord over our Nation is The Lord  Jesus Christ. This document is not making reference to any false god’s or idols.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is preached to all the world from the United States of America. The technology that has been afforded our great Nation has made this possible.  The fight for our Nation is in the hands of Christians that still believe that God is true, Hell is real and salvation of souls is what will change our country.

This is a very real danger. Wake Up Church! The soldiers who fought and gave their lives for our great Nation I believe are counted with the blood of the martyrs.

Did they know so many years ago that the gospel could be preached via satellite to all the world? No, I am certain they did not. Did they realize what they were fighting for? Did they realize the role they would play in the big picture? How could they have known.

Today we must teach the truth. Hold on to the truth. These very truths are the truths that some in our country are fast attempting to erase. We must be ready to speak loudly with our votes. Christians you have no choice but to get involved.  Who hold the truths to be self evident? I do! Do You?

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessing of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution  for the Unites States……..

When interpreting legal document the courts are interested in understanding what the authors intentions and motives were when creating the document.

When the Constitution was written and dated it says; In the Year of Our Lord. Who is Our Lord? He is none other than Jesus Christ.

God bless you and keep you and make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord make His countenance rise upon you and give you Shalom.

Until next time, thank you for listening with me. Laurette
