As we enter into our Independence Day Celebration this is an excellent time to remind ourselves that along with “independence” comes great responsibility. It is most certain that as a Nation we are a very blessed people, this in spite of the political, economic and environmental turmoil we currently find ourselves in. Let us take note of the scripture “the wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” (Ps. 9:17 KJV) Also “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord…” (Ps.33:12) and while there are those who wish to remove all elements of GOD from our history it remains clear that we as believer’s must uphold our fundamental right’s as Americans and our duty as Christians to keep before us our dependency on God.
