If the foundations are destroyed, What can the righteous do (Psalms 11:3)?

America’s Christian foundation has been eroding at a rapid pace. One major reason for this eroding is the disconnect between the average Christian and politics. How did this occur? Our founding leaders who birthed this great nation, the Constitution, freedom and liberty were very active politically and shed their blood for its establishment. Many of the founders were brave God loving and God fearing men. Sadly many Christians take what they gave us for granted by being apathetic, uninformed, uninvolved when it comes to politics. Many Christians say God is in control and it will all work out, while sitting back and doing very little politically. As a result of this laid back attitude of Christians demonic strongholds have been set up in our nation’s capital and around this country with diabolical plans to remove God from this country. Lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices (2 Corinthians 2:11). Our focus is Jesus Christ and the Gospel (good news) but that does not mean we are ignorant of demonic activity set up in our nation. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12).

As someone who ministers a great deal internationally I see most countries are greatly influenced by what happens in our nation’s capital. Christians who take on the right mindset when it comes to politics can greatly impact our nation and the world for the better.

In this book I share how we can restore this great land. We need to unite and get proactive instead of reactive when it comes to politics in America. Charles Finney ushered in the 2nd Great Awakening in the USA. He said “The time has come that Christians take consistent ground in politics. Christians have been exceedingly guilty in this matter. But the time has come when they must act differently. Christians seem to act as if they thought God did not see what they do in politics. But I tell you He does see it – and He will bless or curse this nation according to the course they [Christians] take [in politics].”

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act” – Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Edmund Burke said “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” He also said “Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.”
