God, please bless America again

Submitted

Dear Lord, You once blessed this great nation that sought Your guidance But we turned our back on You and no longer allow You or Your teachings in our schools or in public settings Our nation, unfortunately is offended by You.

So I understand why You are no longer blessing America and we have seen the results of our actions in a world without Your favor. Let us turn from our wicked ways and seek You so that You will hear our prayers and heal our land

“Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has stumbled in the street, and uprightness cannot enter” - Isaiah 59:14

"If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." - 2

Chronicles 7:14

world God forgive us!

“And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness more than light, because their deeds were evil,” John 3:19

Jesus is the Light of the world and Satan is the darkness. Jesus spent His ministry being loved and hated by many He was loved by those who recognized Him as the Messiah and hated because He revealed the evilness of the world’s value system and works Those that violated God’s laws and loved the darkness didn’t want their evil hearts or deeds exposed Today’s darkness is as great as the evil in Noah’s time God will judge those who call evil good “How horrible it will be for those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness into light and light into darkness, who turn what is bitter into something sweet and what is sweet into something bitter,” Isaiah 5:20 Today the “church”, those that confess Jesus to be their Lord, refuse to make His ways the truth they make decisions by We are divided, not by brick but by hearts that decipher what is the truth, or not true in God’s Word by how they want to believe The church has embraced the darkness in the world and called it doctrine As the world got darker the church became politically correct so no person would be offended by the Light The darkness slowly deceived lukewarm believers of Jesus Divorce, cohabitation, corruption, foul language, alcoholism, abuse, selfishness, pride the church looks, sounds and acts like the

When did it become debatable that killing an unborn baby was evil? “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations," Jeremiah 1:5 “You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb,” Psalms 139:13 When did the church abandon God’s gift of a mate and marriage? Satan has begun his attack on a new generation Gay and lesbian lifestyles met little resistance and now embraced and celebrated Non-bias and gender choice curriculum has a single intent; to destroy our children’s belief system that the Bible is true Cartoons directed to 3 and 4 year olds, TV shows and movies marketed to teens are targeting a belief that a gay or lesbian life is the road to happiness Satan is the darkness that hates the light of the truth He has one agenda; competition with God he wants the world to bow to him instead of the Lord He has always, and will until Jesus comes back, led this world away from the Bible “So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place The Lord God created a woman from the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man,” Genesis 21:21-23 God gave Adam a woman, not another man, to be a partner and reproduce life God did not give Adam a choice He created him a wife a woman God called male and female, of every species, to the ark so that they could reproduce the world There would be no repopulating if He had brought same sex people or same sex creators God’s word is hated by the darkness we live in and the church’s silence has allowed it to be removed from public places Evil has taken the symbol of God’s promise to never destroy the earth by flood, the Rainbow, and uses it to celebrate pride of being in the darkness This is not by happenstance We have a common enemy, Satan, and he knows why the earth was destroyed before! Turning the Rainbow into a “Gay Pride” symbol is blasphemy! This is ‘evil being known as good ” Any and all that speaks against this evil is called a hater “good will be known as evil ” In reality it’s the opposite; it takes love to warn the lost people of the evil that lurks in the dark “If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as one of its own But because you do not belong to the world and I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you,” John 5:19

If you embrace the values of this world, the world will gladly embrace you But when you follow Jesus those who embrace the world’s values will ridicule and avoid you Some will hate you just as some hated Jesus When you accepted Jesus as the Truth and the Light, He called you out of darkness and into the light so let your light shine Those who desire the truth will see Him in you Live out loud and bring honor to the Lord by trusting Him and taking Him at His word The Bible is the only truth that will never change because it was not the opinions of men; it was, and remains, given to man by the breath of God “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind Then you will be able to discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God,” Romans 12:2 It takes the living word of God to change your mind to think like He does He is opposite of the darkness of this world and He opposes the world’s values The world draws the heart and soul (the mind, will and emotions) away from God; and the more the love of the world prevails, the more the love for God declines in the world Victory is won and lost in the heart The love of God will never fail and His word remains the light and the truth Stay in His word “Do not love the world, or the things in the world If any one loves the world, there is no love in his heart for the Father,” 1 John 2:15.

A few weeks ago we looked at some definitions for furniture “legs ” Today we will explore the wonderful world of furniture feet

A foot is the lower extremity of a leg; or the lowest, usually projecting, part of a legless piece of furniture, serving as a support. There are a variety of styles of feet:

Ball and claw (also called clawand-ball): carved foot in the form of the claw of an animal or bird holding a ball, the ball resting on the floor Fashionable in the 18th C and most frequently used to terminate a cabriole leg

Bear’s-claw foot: carved paw foot in which the paw is a bear’s

Bird’s –ball-and-claw foot: claw is a bird’s, usually the talon of a bird of prey

Bun foot (onion foot): rung, turned foot flattened at top and bottom The decorated style is called a melon foot

Cloven foot: hoof foot in which hoof is cloven

Dog (dog’s paw foot): paw is a dog’s and similar to the lion’s paw

Dolphin foot: carved foot in shape of a stylized fish Popular in the British Regency style in the early 19th century

Hoof foot: carved foot in the form of an animal’s hoof, either cloven or solid. Dates to ancient Egyptian furniture, and returned to popularity in the late 17th C

Rat’s claw foot: long, narrow, carved foot in the form of skinny animal claw, usually grasping an ovoid ball beneath it

Spade foot: block-shaped foot, higher than wide and tapering slightly toward the bottom, thus resembling in profile the blade of a shovel or spade

Spanish foot (paintbrush foot): carved foot terminating a leg and characterized by an inward-turning scroll at the bottom and vertical grooves above, creating ribs on the top surface of the scroll

When discussing furniture styles with fellow antiquers, remember these definitions to avoid putting your foot in your mouth
