Impacting Our Nation (2 of 6)
Series: Impact
Jim Perdue
Psalm 33:1-22
Intro/Attention
Last week we began a journey together. A journey that encompasses our daily devotion times, our Life Group times, and our worship times. It ranges from the smallest children to our oldest adults. And it will culminate in our church moving forward in unity to impact our community, nation, and world with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Today, from Psalm 33, we will talk about Impacting Our Nation. We will study the entire chapter today but read just one verse. READ 33:12 - PRAY

Founding Fathers such as James Madison said ''we have staked our future upon the capacity of each of us to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.'' John Adams describes the purpose of America's existence in one sentence: ''The destiny of America is to carry the gospel of Jesus Christ to all men, everywhere.'' Today ''in an American school, any person can say anything he wants to against God. But Heaven forbid that he say anything in God's favor.'' Where did we go wrong? The Bible teaches us invariably that pride cometh before a fall. Because of the blessings America has received from God, we have become proud. Deuteronomy 8:10-14 portrays the picture of a prou ...
