By now, the political slogans should be ringing more hollow than ever. But here is a statement that rings true: “Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusts in man.” We have placed our trust in man, and as the Prophet Jeremiah wrote, we are suffering for it.
It’s not delusional to think that this nation is cursed. In fact, it’s delusional not to. Can you recognize it? The Bible prophesies that America is facing a cursed future, politically, economically, morally and militarily. This is how it describes America’s coming days: curses befalling a nation that has turned itself completely away from the God who gave it its abundant blessings in the first place. For a thorough scriptural study of these prophecies—and to see the ultimately inspiring reason for which God is bringing them to pass—request a free copy of Herbert W. Armstrong’s book The United States and Britain in Prophecy.
This sequence of curses is already beginning to ravage the U.S. at an accelerating tempo. It is not difficult to imagine that, despite Mr. Stephens’s hope, there won’t bea “next election.”
But thankfully, that is not the end of the story. Change is coming. Hope is coming. Yes, even greatness is coming. But not from politicians.
“The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever” (Revelation 11:15). That truly is change you can believe in.
After saying you’re cursed if you trust a man, Jeremiah then said, “Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.”
In whom are you placing your trust?
