I first posted the following under the above title....on March 3, 2017....about six weeks after the inauguration,,,,,before I even started reading about Donald Trump....a quest which resulted in reading over eighty books on his entire life. It's only the last paragraph after a litany of offenses that all of us Americans in one way and to one degree or another have waved in the face of God. No...the whole MAGA was not from God. It was rather only part of the judgment that God let us blindly fall into....as it proved very clearly how our hope and trust was taken off of Jesus Christ....and put not only elsewhere....but on a man who was a genuine biblical false prophet. (Does he still say...."We are one glorious nation under God.....and the best is yet to come?)

God Did Not Commission......'Make America Great Again'
Quite Frankly...God has not sanctioned this 'Make America Great Again.' We did not even consult God beforehand on this. He has not commissioned this president....we alone have done this. We will fail just as the Israelites failed when they entered into battle without God's approbation. This is not to say that we should not have voted as we did or attempt the changes that we do. It is rather a clarion call to this man and those around him, to others in America, to us, and to me, to proclaim with every fiber of our being that we have erred, that we have not sought God's direction, that we have not admitted our own culpability, that we are utterly undone....and then to look to Him who holds every molecule in this universe together and implore of Him undeserved mercy....forgiveness....wisdom and strength....and this entirely for the glory of His name alone....of which we have heretofore grossly presumed upon and trampled....and resolve from this moment on to call upon Jesus Christ...our Redeemer....our King...and our Fortress....as our only refuge.
"So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he gave them over to plunderers, who plundered them. And he sold them into the hand of their surrounding enemies, so that they could no longer withstand their enemies. (Judges 2:14 ESV)
