The united States Of America, in the journals of history, is a very young nation. Just over 200 years old. Never before in historical times has a nation claimed independence and rose up to be a superpower in so few years. How can this happen? Simple, Gods grace. Our founding fathers knew in order to be a great nation, we would have to be a "nation under God". And God did in fact bless this nation.

President John Adams, one of only two signers of the Bill of Rights and the First Amendment, said “As the safety and prosperity of nations ultimately and essentially depend on the protection and the blessing of Almighty God, and the national acknowledgement of this truth is not only an indispensable duty which the people owe to Him”.

President Andrew Jackson declared the Bible “is the rock on which our Republic rests”.

President Abraham Lincoln declared the Bible “is the best gift God has given to men….But for it we could not know right from wrong.”

President William McKinley declared “Our faith teaches us that there is no safer reliance than upon the God of our fathers, Who has so singularly favored the American people in every national trial and Who will not forsake us so long as we obey His commandments and walk humbly in His footsteps.”

One of the carvings inside the Jefferson Memorial declares these words of Jefferson, “God who gave us life, gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are gifts of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever.” The Lincoln Memorial includes the words “we here highly resolve…this nation under God…shall not perish from the earth.”

The Fall From Grace Begins... Our country began a philosophical social shift in 1947 with the infamous U.S. Supreme Court ruling about "the separation of church and state." Since then the nation has been experiencing a frightening trend in social breakdown. We are engulfed in a tidal wave of immorality and violence. Surely, evil has been with us since the Garden of Eden. But evil's statistics in the United States were relatively minute until we removed God, the Bible and prayer from the schools. The year 1962 was when the statistics began a sharp trend upward.

God was violently expelled from school by a Supreme Court decision in 1962 (Engle vs. Vitale). He was banished from the schoolyard and His Commandments removed from the school wall in two other Supreme Court decisions (Abbington vs. Schemp, 1963 and Stone vs. Graham 1977). He has been replaced with police guards, metal detectors, drugs, condoms, gangs, assault, rape, murder and violence of unprecedented order.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (AP) — An atheist who has spent four years trying to ban the Pledge of Allegiance from being recited in public schools is now challenging the motto printed on U.S. currency because it refers to God.

Michael Newdow seeks to remove "In God We Trust" from U.S. coins and dollar bills, claiming in a federal lawsuit that the motto is an unconstitutional endorsement of religion. Newdow, a Sacramento doctor and lawyer, used a similar argument when he challenged the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools because it contains the words "under God." He took his pledge fight to the U.S. Supreme Court, which in 2004 said he lacked standing to bring the case because he did not have custody of the daughter he sued on behalf of.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — A fire station memorial to the Sept. 11 terror attack victims that included the phrase "God Bless America" was ordered altered by a city official who said it improperly mixed government and religion. The memorial erected by firefighters at Murfreesboro Fire Station No. 6 now consists of a model of the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the edited phrase "Bless America."

EL PASO, Texas — A West Texas high school's marquee with the words "God Bless America" on it was removed after a senior suggested that it could be offensive to some. The sign at Eastwood High School now reads, "United We Stand."

These are just a few examples. The sad part is, this nation has been spiraling down hill since the 1960's. The moral values of this nation have been in decline at a record setting pace. The moral decline had gone unchecked until President Reagan began the healing process. Through his faith and Christian beliefs, he began to bring this nation back. The problem was, he only had eight years to reverse decades of pestilence. He simply did not have enough time. Since then each of the following presidents of the United States has systematically destroyed any hope of healing or bringing this nation out of it's decline. We are no longer a nation that fears God. We have become a nation of self. For myself and by myself! God has nothing to do with it. We will have what we want and will find ways to justify it. If Gods word says it's wrong, then we will ignore Him and do it anyhow.

For the people by the people, this has not been the case for decades! Each of our elected officials run on the premise of doing something for the people. They make promise after promise. Once elected, they pursue their own agenda's and totally ignore those who put them in office. Now because of their greed, you and I, the tax payers, have been handed a 10 Trillion dollar deficit. That's enough money to give every man, woman and child in the United State a million dollars and still have money left over. Where did we go wrong? We elected them! We allowed this to happen! This brings me to my next point.

Even though we have no say in what they do in office, we will pay the price. Once again our morals come into play. Let me give you an example. During this years Presidential election, we voted for change. We did not care how it came, just as long as we got change. Obama was elected by a landslide. However, the nation was not voting on moral grounds or on a persons moral background. This was clearly evident during the debates. On every moral issue, Obama made it clear he was not going to take a christian stance. Instead he did the exact opposite. Once elected, the first two things he did as President was to reverse the bans on abortion and embryonic stem cell research. These two thing alone are enough to put this nation at odds with God. As time goes on you will see more issues that will cause us to lose our blessings. Such as Obama passing into law the same sex medical insurance for the federal government. These things may seem minor, but to God, they are major. Now most of us at this point would say, we didn't know Obama would do these things. We are not to blame for his faults or his wrong doings. That's where you are dead wrong!! In Gods eyes, we are totally at blame. When we elect a person to represent us, be it President, Senator or Congressman, we are stating that this is who we are. He is our voice for the people. Because we voted this person into office, we are responsible for his or her actions and must accept the consequences good or bad. This nation can very well live or die by the hand of those we choose to elect.

The defining moment in our nations history is yet to come. In the next few months we will determine the fate of our nation. God still has the last word. We will either be blessed or cursed. The bible says, "God will bless those who bless Israel" and "God will curse those who curse Israel." We have always supported Israel, and thus far we have received blessings, but a critical decision is coming. If we force Israel to give land to Palestine in order to make a Palestinian state, we will in fact, come directly under Gods wrath. Israel is His and no-one has the authority to divide it. If we cause them to divide their land, God will divide our land. Don't be surprised if you see a major earthquake on American soil that may quite literally split the nation in two! If this does happen, our nation will crumble as a superpower and all blessings from God will cease!
