What Kind Of Nation Will We Be After This? [Psalm 33]
I have been praying that somehow the Lord would use this crazy pandemic to bring about a spiritual awakening in our country. We are a wealthy country, but we are neither a wise nor good country. I think Psalm 33 offers a challenge and an opportunity to us:
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!
All the wealth and military might in the world is not enough to save us if we are spiritually broken. It is from God that we can receive blessing and security, not from the work of our own hands. I like how Psalm 33 puts it:
16 The king is not saved by his great army;
a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.
17 The war horse is a false hope for salvation,
and by its great might it cannot rescue.
Are you putting your hope in the right place today?
