The elections are over. I must say that I was a bit surprised but not overly shocked at the results. I am very sad to see that the U.S. has become so spiritually and morally blind as it has and as was shown so clearly by the elections yesterday. BUT that being said I know that God is in control no matter who is President. We need to pray for America and for all of those who were elected as the Bible says for us to do. We must follow what God and Jesus have said to do and not fear but pray and continue to be his hands and feet in this world to change it for the better! We need to love others and teach them the truth and stand up for what is right!
We need to pray more fervently than ever for our country to wake up from it's current path before we no longer have one. Pray that the U.S. will turn from being one that pushes God out and embraces sin and death over all other things. For things will not get better than they were by proceeding on the path of destruction that we are on. And people wonder why America doesn't prosper?
7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:7-9 KJV
God will not bless a nation that does not even want his name or his only Son our Lord and Saviour's Jesus's name mentioned unless they are using it blasphemously or as a profanity. When they continually want to push him out of everything - government, education, and all else and the only time that they DO want to call upon him or ask for his help is in times of tragedy and trouble.
God will not bless a country that turns its head and does nothing to try to stop the killing of almost 4000 innocent children's lives everyday in the name of choice. God will not bless a country that does not stand by Israel. Nor will he bless a country when it's citizens worry more about who will give them a handout and free things rather than who will do what is decent and right! That does not value honesty, human rights, and justice.
The list goes on and on and we wonder why the U.S. is in such hard times now? My friends the U.S. is daily turning it's back on God and his word and then expecting Him to bless them. It doesn't work that way. It's time for America to awaken out of it's sleep. To take the blinders OFF of it's eyes and do what is right before we no longer have a country. Is this TRULY the kind of country that we want our children and our grand children to live in? What kind of world are we building for them?
All of this is especially true of those of us that call themselves Christians and yet do nothing to try to help change things for the better as the Bible tells us too! We are not to be Christians in name only.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
James 1:22-25 KJV
Christians we can not turn our heads and remain silent and not speak up for what is right and expect God to be pleased with us. I say this in Christian love!
Wake up America! Wake up Christians before it is too late take the blinders off of your eyes. This is not about political parties! It is about doing and living for what is right!
Jesus said...
13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
Matthew 15:13-15 KJV
AMERICA we do not want to fall into the ditch! We need to pray for the U.S. diligently. And those who call themselves Christians it is high time to awake out of slumber and live as the Bible tells us to live. We have to stop being so afraid of being politically correct and hurting someones feelings that we are afraid to tell them the truth in love. This is NOT what Jesus did he told people the truth even if it hurt their feelings. And he did it out of love just as we should. Telling someone the truth is NOT judging them.
May God have mercy on and heal America and help us to once again get on the right path so that we may all live peacefully and loving and righteously again. And that our country will stand and it will be a good place for our children and their children to live in!
We must not give up but continue to stand up and be the voice for the 55 million children who have already lost their lives to abortion and the countless others that will lose their lives if we are silent. Keep fighting for the all of the unborn children and for an end to abortion! This is not the end it is just the beginning. We knew that no matter who won the election that we would still have to fight to end abortion. And so we will continue to peacefully and lovingly fight for the lives of our brothers and sisters! Stand up for life from womb to the tomb! Stand up for all human's rights not just some but ALL humans but especially the weak and defenseless for if we don't stand up for and defend them no one will!

As election day is almost here everyone needs to pray and vote...in that order! You need to ask yourself who would God and Jesus vote for of the candidates that are available? You also need to keep in mind that you are voting for more than just the President and remember to vote for those in the House and Senate who will stand up and vote and fight for what is right in this country!
Ask yourself this if a candidate will not even defend a person's most basic human rights...of which the foremost is the right to life, how can you trust that candidate to stand up for what is right on any other issue?
If you are a Christian you should only vote for those who stand up for life and are against abortion and euthanasia. All people are made in the image of God. Only God is able to give life and only God has the right to say when that same life ends. We need people in the White House, the Senate, and House and every other office that will do what is right and protect the sanctity of every life! Research all the candidates in your area and see where they stand on the issues before you vote! Don't just vote by what party they belong to but by how they stand on the issues! Know the facts and remember that many politicians that start off in the lower offices go on later to be in much higher offices and your vote can help them to get there. Every vote is important and every position that is held is important and could pave the way for those same candidates to make it into the White House one day. So please know where each candidate stands on the most important issues before you cast your vote for them. Pray and keep the important issues in your mind when you vote! May God bless America and help those to be elected who will do his will only!

- As a State Senator in Illinois, Barack Obama opposed legislation that would have provided equal protection for unborn babies who survive abortions. The legislation: “[Provided] that a live child born as a result of an abortion shall be fully recognized as a human person and accorded immediate protection under the law.”
- The legislation was introduced after Jill Stanek testified in 1999 that, while working as a nurse at Christ Hospital in Illinois, infants who survived induced abortions were being left to die in a utility room.
- In May 2012, the House of Representatives voted on legislation that would ban sex-selection abortions, which occur when the gender of the child is not preferred by the parents. A study by the Lozier Institute shows that sex-selection abortion is happening here in the United States, with unborn baby girls falling victim. The majority of U.S. representatives – 246-168 – voted in favor of this ban.
- President Obama opposed the ban on sex-selection abortions, saying, “The government should not intrude in medical decisions … in this way.”
- Under Obamacare, millions of Americans will unknowingly be enrolled in health plans that include abortion coverage. These plans will charge enrollees an “abortion surcharge” – that will go into a national abortion slush fund.
- Obamacare forces employers – whether religious or secular – to pay for insurance plans that cover abortion-inducing drugs and sterilization, regardless of religious or moral objections.

The following is a repost directly from LifeNews.com about Obama's extreme abortion stance and his lack of support for the Born Alive Infant Protection Act that would require medical care and save the lives of babies that were born alive during failed abortions.
The following article was written by Dave Andrusko
The title of Ramesh Ponnuru’s excellent post today captures a powerful truth–“Obama and Infanticide: The media still insist on defending his votes in favor of infanticide.” We will quote at length from his analysis, but it is very much worth reading in full at National Review Online.
Mr. Obama and those who defend his actions as a state Senator have offered a number of explanations for his opposition to a bill in Illinois that would have provided legal protection to babies who survived abortion. For example, as Ponnuru explains, “They said he opposed it because the law lacked a clause clarifying that it did not protect fetuses within the womb. In fact Obama opposed a version of the bill that contained one (not that there was ever any need for it).”
In fact, as Ponnuru notes, Obama understood it didn’t apply to babies in the womb and, more importantly, “never said otherwise.” To quote Ponnuru“His [Obama’s] point, to paraphrase it, was that granting legal protections to a pre-viable child was logically incompatible with Roe. He was wrong to predict the courts would see it that way: No court has struck down the type of legislation Illinois was considering; there is now a federal law on the books that is nearly identical to it. The Court’s jurisprudence makes the location of the developing human being — inside or outside the womb — decisive for whether it has a right to life, and not just its stage of development. (That’s one reason pro-lifers made partial-birth abortion an issue: to establish that a child partway out of the womb would be protected.)”
State Senator Obama raised a related objection to protections for pre-viable infants born alive (in commenting on a different piece of legislation), according to Ponnuru: “Granting them protection by requiring that a second doctor be present to treat any born-alive infant would ‘burden the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion.’ Legal protection for these infants, in addition to being wrong on principle, would inhibit abortion.”
In 2008 National Right to Life carefully documented Obama’s actions while a state Senator, but the media shield was impermeable. Surely, we were told, no one could seriously believe Obama would support the right to infanticide.
The issue has resurfaced again because pro-lifers refuse to allow the truth to stay buried. And that is that Obama (in Ponnuru’s words) “believed that certain infants — those at an early stage of development — should not have legal protection, and he believed it because he thought it would undermine the right to abortion.”
Having established Obama’s real position while a state Senator, Ponnuru spends a lot of time carefully dissecting the conclusions of the Washington Post’s Josh Hicks who “fact-checked” an ad by the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List. (You can read the analysis in its entirety atwww.nationalreview.com/articles/316590/obama-and-infanticide-ramesh-ponnuru.)
In general Hicks imputes positions to Obama he didn’t express, for example (as Ponnuru writes) “At no point does he [Obama] suggest that it would be okay to provide legal protection to pre-viable infants who survive abortions. That’s because he opposed such protection.”
And Hicks is determined to put the worst construction on comments made in the ad by abortion survivor Melissa Ohden and former Governor Mike Huckabee while giving Mr. Obama the benefit of the doubt (even when there isn’t any) —and more.
For instance, Hicks quotes Huckabee saying, “Obama “believes that human life is disposable and expendable . . . even beyond the womb.” Besides concluding it’s all so confusing to say anything definitively, Hicks announces “Nonetheless, we find it hard to fathom that the former senator expressed a belief that human life is disposable outside the womb.”
Yes, it would be, if it weren’t for that pesky record. As Ponnuru explains, “Huckabee was right: Obama did believe that at least some human lives, ‘even beyond the womb,’ are ‘disposable and expendable.’ He believed that for the law to treat them otherwise would be wrong. Whatever Hicks can or cannot fathom, Obama expressed that view both in his words and in his votes.”
Ponnuru concludes by d****** with faint praise:
“Hicks deserves credit, however, for noting that Obama has made false statements about his record on this issue. He even says that if he were grading his 2008 comments today, he would give him four Pinocchios. That’s an improvement over the Post’s performance in 2008, when it was the worst of a bad lot of ’fact-checkers.’ Perhaps when Obama’s third memoir comes out, the Post will finally be ready to admit that Obama supported a right to infanticide for pre-viable infants, and pro-lifers had it right all along.”
NRLC’s website contains definitive documentation on this issue, much of which is distilled in a comprehensive “white paper” written by NRLC Legislative Director Douglas Johnson and Senior Legislative Counsel Susan T. Muskett in August, 2008, which is here:http://www.nrlc.org/ObamaBAIPA/WhitePaperAugust282008.html
