Here’s a heavy weekend reading for us to ponder.
God ‘s promises to His people were often presented as “if-then” statements, meaning that they were conditional. God promised Israel blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience.
There are lessons for EVERY nation that respects the Bible.
“Now if you faithfully obey the Lord your Godand are careful to follow all his commands I am giving you today, the Lord your God will put you far above all the nations of the earth. All these blessings will come and overtake you, because you obey the Lord your God:
You will be blessed in the city
and blessed in the country.
Your offspring will be blessed,
and your land’s produce,
and the offspring of your livestock,
including the young of your herds
and the newborn of your flocks.
Your basket and kneading bowl will be blessed.
You will be blessed when you come in
and blessed when you go out. The Lord will cause the enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you. They will march out against you from one direction but flee from you in seven directions. The Lord will grant you a blessing on your barns and on everything you do; he will bless you in the land the Lord your God is giving you.”
Deuteronomy 28: 1-9 (CSB).
It is worthwhile for every Believer to read the entire chapter. I believe it speaks to what we have experienced in America.

I can’t help thinking that these are ill-gotten gains that illustrate a failure of the U.S. Civil Court system.

Greetings 👋
As Christians, it’s wise to regularly examine our hearts. Are we craving the world’s approval a little too much?
Jesus didn’t sugarcoat what following Him would cost:
“If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first. The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you.
Do you remember what I told you? ‘A slave is not greater than the master.’ Since they persecuted me, naturally they will persecute you. And if they had listened to me, they would listen to you. They will do all this to you because of me, for they have rejected the one who sent me.
They would not be guilty if I had not come and spoken to them. But now they have no excuse for their sin.
Anyone who hates me also hates my Father. If I hadn’t done such miraculous signs among them that no one else could do, they would not be guilty. But as it is, they have seen everything I did, yet they still ...
Today we learned that Senator Lindsey Graham has passed away after a sudden illness. He was 71.
It’s a sobering reminder that none of us is promised tomorrow. Our times are in His hands.
“My times are in your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies, from those who pursue me.” — Psalm 31:15
What kind of legacy do we want to leave?
Graham and Mitch McConnell were once two of the most powerful figures in American politics—men who helped shape foreign policy, the courts, and the direction of their party for decades. Now both are no longer positioned to influence world events.
Life moves quickly. Power fades. Influence passes. God is in control!
Let’s pray that God raises up a new generation of men and women leaders after His own heart—leaders marked by wisdom, courage, integrity, and a genuine fear of the Lord.
May the Lord comfort Senator Graham’s family, his staff, and all who mourn him today.
May Senator Graham rest in peace.
