America: Awake or Perish?
by Ken Trivette
An unknown author has given us these words: ''I was born on July 4, 1776, and the Declaration of Independence is my birth certificate. The bloodlines of the world run in my veins, because I offered freedom to the oppressed. I am the 180 million living souls, and the ghosts of millions who have lived and died for me. I am Nathan Hale and Paul Revere. I stood at Lexington and fired the shot heard around the world. I am Washington, Jefferson and Patrick Henry. I am John Paul Jones, the Green Mountain Boys and Davy Crockett. I am Lee, Grant, and Abe Lincoln. I am the Brooklyn Bridge, the wheat lands of...
A Song for America
by Jerry Vines
Music is always a part of our national celebrations. At Thanksgiving we have - Come Ye Thankful People Come and Count Your Many Blessings. Christmas is always a time of beautiful music which celebrates the holiday and the season of the year. We have our Jingle Bells and Away in a Manger. We have White Christmas and O, Holy Night. What would Christmas be without beautiful music. The same thing is true for 4th of July celebrations. Music is always a part of them. This afternoon at 5:00 we will have wonderful, glorious, patriotic music and also music of the heart as well as testimonies that will stir the heart...
What's Right about America?
by Stan Coffey
One of the most important days in the life of our nation each year is Independence Day. During the American revolution the legal separation of the American colonies from Great Britain occurred on July 2, 1776, when the Second Continental Congress voted to approve a resolution of independence that had been proposed in June by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia. After voting for independence, Congress turned its attention to the Declaration of Independence, a statement explaining this decision, which had been prepared by a committee but with Thomas Jefferson as its principal author. Congress debated and revised the...
God Bless America
by James Merritt
Our nation is on a true high right now. Our position, our prestige, our power has been restored in the minds of many to a place of unquestioned preeminence. Operation Desert Storm confirmed too many that we are still the most powerful nation on earth. We are still the number one military power to be reckoned with. Old fashion patriotism seems to be back in vogue. I am reminded of a story of a Baptist who was being bothered by one of these religious groups that are known for going door-to-door in the community. This particular religious group had been bothering this man quite frequently. This man was a southerner. He was...
Is God Still Blessing America?
by Curt Dodd
Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. He gathers the waters of the sea into jars; he puts the deep into storehouses. Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere him. For he spoke, and it...
Blessings for America
by Adrian Rogers
Turn please to Psalm 85, if you would. In just a moment we're going to look at verses four through six. I preached to you in the last message when we were together about the critical situation in our land today. We may be on the brink of a world holocaust. Many of us feel that we are very close to the Rapture of the church and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The heartthrob of my heart tonight and my passion as your pastor and as your preacher tonight is that there will be in America a God blessed, heaven sent, Christ exalting, devil defying, sin killing, soul saving, old fashioned revival. I believe with all of my heart that...
America: An Upside-Down Nation
by Jerry Watts
As a kid, I used to love the 'jungle gym' - you remember that? We, as the less sophisticated people, called them the monkey bars. And they were rightly named so because we would hang upside down for extended periods of time. Have you ever hung upside down? The world looks different. If you stay in that position for an extended period of time, you'll discover some unusual things happening. Instead of citing all the physiological problems which could occur, just make a note that the big problem is our circulatory system. The way the body is made up with its veins, arteries and heart, it uses gravity to get the...
The Only Hope for America (5 of 7)
by Joe Alain
An unrivaled world leader, a powerful and prosperous nation whose influence reaches out to every nation on the earth. No, I'm not talking about the United States, I'm referring to ancient Babylon. Yet while I'm referring to Babylon, Daniel chapter 4 is a timely prophetic word for our nation (i.e., us) and for our leaders. Because it is true that those who do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. God has ordained government, "for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are instituted by God" (Rom. 13:1). Government is established by God for the benefit of people, their...
America's Only Hope
by Ernest Easley
Today ... as we celebrate the 228th birthday of our nation ... join me in the Old Testament book of 2 Chronicles. And once there, turn to chapter 7. Years ago one of our American submarines sank off the eastern coast. Divers attempted to rescue them and when they went down, they could hear the survivors tapping on the side of that submarine in Morse Code. They were tapping a question: ''Is there any hope? Is there any hope?'' And that same question is being asked today across America: ''Is there any hope for America?'' Well on this the 228th birthday of America ... I want to show you from God's Word that there is hope...
A God Blessed America (5 of 11)
by Roger Thomas
It just doesn't seem like the Fourth of July without all the fireworks and festivities. I know. I will never forget the Fourth of July we spent where nobody else celebrated. No parades. No parties. No fireworks. It just didn't seem right. Of course, there was a good reason. Rose and I were in Canada on that particular Fourth of July. We had just started a month long camping adventure up the Alaska Highway for our 25th wedding anniversary. We had crossed from Montana into Alberta. Late in the afternoon on July 1, we pulled into a municipal campground in High River, just south of Calgary. I was surprised to see the...
Fasting: America's Last Great Hope
by Richard Bradley
As the church we've been asked to declare November 1 as a day of fasting and prayer and this is entirely fitting because our country is holding probably it's most important election in history on November 8. This is an election that, more than any other, holds the potential to radically change the future of our great republic. I know what you're thinking. Many of you are thinking, ''Preacher I don't identify with either candidate.'' I know how you feel. Frankly, neither of these two would be my choice. But here we sit because only two legitimate candidates are running. Since someone is going to be elected why not elect the...
The Healing of America
by Terry J. Hallock
2nd Chronicles 7:14 makes it clear that Israel would only be healed when their hearts were humbled, their lips opened in prayer, their eyes turned toward the Lord, and their lives turned away from sin. ''If my people, who are called by my name, will humbles themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, THEN will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.'' America stands in need of healing. She has been wounded in the heart by terror, suffering, and death. America not only stands in need of healing; she stands ready to receive it. People who before September 11th never...
America's Greatness
by Daniel Rodgers
I have a very simple message this morning--nothing profound, and I'm sure, nothing you have not heard before. The purpose of this message is to cause us to think about the things that have made America great--to reaffirm the principles and standards that have been the very foundation of America's soul. Let me say at the outset, America's greatness has not been because of technological advancement or medical discovery. America's greatness has not been the result of powerful and influential leaders, nor is it because of great presidents, though we have had a few. I thank God for the memory of President Ronald...
America in Crisis
by J. Gerald Harris
We were told that it could happen. We never dreamed that it would. The devastation and death in New York City, the devastation and death at the Pentagon in Washington, DC, the plane crash in Somerset, Pennsylvania, it's mind boggling, it's heart rending and it ought to produce some soul searching. Democratic Senator Christopher Dodd of Connecticut said, "We stand completely and totally behind our President. We may have our differences from time to time, but on a day like this, which rivals the attack on Pearl Harbor, we stand united behind our President and our government. The President said in his first speech...
America in Crisis (1 of 10)
by Stan Coffey
Today's message is entitled ''America In Crisis.'' We could talk about all kinds of crisis's America faces today. The crisis that comes to our mind immediately of course is the war on terror. And the crisis that we face there with our troops spread around the world guarding and fighting for our freedom today. We never need to forget those men and women who are serving, who are standing in our stead doing their duty. We could talk about the spiritual crisis in America today and I want to address that more than anything else because I think that is the real crisis that the American people face today. The crisis in the church, the body...
Will God Bless America?
by Fenton Moorhead
That was full of energy, full of life, full of the desire for the freedom to press on, to move higher, the right kind of freedom. One of the easiest things to abuse and harm is freedom. Let's pray right now as we approach the Word of God. ''Lord, we come to you today asking for a fresh and new understanding of what you have truly given to us in this land, the opportunity that is ours. Help us to understand it, help us to see freedom as opportunity, to freely express our love for you, and devotion for you, to freely obey you, instead of the freedom to do as we please. Help us to see that that is a license that will only lead to harm. So show...
Youth in America Today
by Nelson Price
Jesus Christ gave new dignity to the home when He, the Son of God, chose it as the environment into which He came when He visited earth. Marriage was the first institution established by God. Little wonder that it is a primary object of attack today. Thus, with marriage as the basis the home was the institution initially established by God. One of the most strategic roles played by any human being is that of a parent. It is a challenge to be cherished. Let's explore some realms of family life you may never have considered. Let's take a look at youth in America today. Let me urge you not to stop listening until this...
America, Still Afloat, But Adrift!
by David Cawston
America was birthed by a group of dedicated people that fought storms, hardship and opposition to create a land that would provide liberty, opportunity and freedom for all. Patrick Henry "Give me liberty or give me death" "We understand certain truths to be self evident that all men are created equal and are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. The right of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Preamble to the Bill of rights. But there were some basic characteristics that these people possessed that contexualized their writings and life. These characteristics were based upon their strong...
Living Free: The Key to America
by Randal Ross
There is one sacred word to Americans: It is freedom. 1. Freedom is the IDEAL of our nation. The ''Holy Grail'' which our forefathers sought 2. There is no other word that matters as much to Americans than the land of freedom. B. America was born of a hunter for freedom. 1. The PILGRIMS risked all to find a place where they could be free. Raise families free. 2. Founding fathers declared that Freedom was more important than life, wealth or comfort. ILL. When they signed the declaration of independence they declared the God-given right for freedom, life, liberty and pursuit of happiness...
America At War
by Dr. Ed Young
The first church I pastored was the First Baptist Church of Erwin, North Carolina. Not far from that little town in North Carolina is a historic Presbyterian church. In fact, it’s one of the oldest Presbyterian churches in America, it’s founding date prior to the Revolutionary War. The name of that church is the Barbeque Presbyterian Church. You just can’t get a better name than that! The pastor was a strict and pious young Presbyterian minister - seminary-trained, biblical, articulate, and legalistic. One Sunday morning, with the rumblings of a coming revolution sweeping across the land, this young pastor prayed for the American...
