Our great friend David Allan has shared his articles with us in the past. Here is a very appropriate blog about the Last Days. We are thankful to David for sharing his thoughts with us as we pray we all may be ready when the Lord comes again.
I truly believe the Prophet of the Lord Russell M Nelson is leading us in the Covenant Path and we need to get behind him. We have other evangelists and preachers that are trying to help as well. Anything that is Good is of God. May we utilize our stewardship the Lord has give us to further the work of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and serve the entire world in sharing our witness of the truth that Christ is coming again.
What Will It Take To Save America? by David W. Allan
What will it take to save America? If this nation goes down, there also goes liberty for the world.
Jonathan Cahn, wrote The Harbinger, a book about 9/11, which opened up to the world the great significance of many last day prophecies being fulfilled right before our eyes. We presently are on the brink of disaster.
What Can Be Done?
Cahn, and other spiritual leaders have called, all who will, to turn to prayer for the greatest nation in history. There will be ten days of prayer and repentance that coincide with the Biblical Feast of Trumpet and ending with the Day of Atonement (September 18th to September 28th.)
The Return
The Return is a joint national and global day of prayer and repentance that will be held on Saturday, the 26th of September 2020. They are asking as many as can to gather on the Washington D.C. Mall for this day of prayer – believing this is our last opportunity for this nation to receive the promise in the scriptures. Those who can’t make it there can, of course, have their own day of prayer wherever they are. The goal is to invoke the Lord’s blessing, if we do our part, which America critically needs:
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14
The Mayflower
On the 26th of September, we are looking back at our marvelous history, where God has greatly blessed us in the “Promise Land” of America. This September celebrates the 400th year of the sailing of the Mayflower. The event is 38 days before the election. It is a pivotal time for Americans. Will they choose God or continue on a path to moral decay and destruction?
The scriptures are clear: “…it is a land of promise, and whatsoever nation shall possess it shall serve God, or they shall be swept off when… they are ripened in iniquity.” (Ether 2:9)
The repentance of the citizens of America is critical for the temporal salvation of this Promised Land.
The Importance of Individual Repentance for Spiritual and Physical Safety
We know because of the infinite atonement that all of us are saved from the spiritual and physical deaths brought about by the fall of Adam and Eve. However, the extremely important conditional part of the infinite atonement depends upon each of our choices to repent of our sins and accept Christ or not.
Even though this nation will be saved in glory in due process, how it gets there is totally a function of the collective choices of each of us individually as Americans. We can choose wickedness or righteousness. We cannot be luke-warm (Rev. 3:16). No unclean thing can enter heaven; if that were so, it would not be heaven. We are all sinners, but through the cleansing power of the amazing infinite atonement, we can all be clean, as we come unto Him, who can and will perfect us, as we “come unto Christ.” (Moroni 10:32-33) We are in the valley of DECISION.
Righteous Leadership Has Made A Difference
George Washington, the father of our nation and our first President, led our troops to win the Revolutionary War, a fledgling nation defending our love of liberty against the greatest army on the planet. At the time, all conditions pointed to certain failure. However, Washington continually petitioned our troops to be moral and to seek the blessings of heaven, while the British troops had major problems with immorality. We won that war and Washington summarized it well. It was clearly by “Divine intervention.”
And again, we saw Divine intervention as we won the War of 1812 because of the blessings of heaven, as a Christian motivated nation. This was greatly evidenced during the British relentless barrage against Ft. McHenry, where Francis Scott Key composed our National Anthem; the third verse of which reads:
Oh, thus be it ever, when free men shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land
Praise the Pow’r that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust!
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
In this “Promised Land,” our inspired Declaration of Independence and Constitution made the individual sovereign and open to the blessings of liberty, according to Biblical ethics, which guided its foundation. Fortunately, we have had some incredibly moral presidents that gave us our beginnings and led us through difficult times: Washington, Adams, Jefferson… Lincoln.
But, this free nation, who knew better, had to be purged again by the bloodiest war we have ever fought because of the sin of slavery. In the end, the Civil War purging actually brought us closer to the freedom and liberty we all seek. How are we progressing in keeping these freedoms?
Where Are We Now?
Much of our government’s leadership and our education system have been liberalized and have moved more and more toward socialism and communistic-atheistic philosophies – where the state is sovereign and “God is dead!”. Because organic evolution has permeated our education system, atheism continues to increase, and this Christian based nation has moved far from its foundational moorings. In such a state, we cannot expect the “blessings of heaven.”
The Critical Need for Righteous Leadership Now
The United States of America and Israel are the only two nations founded on Biblical ethics. Materialism and secularism tend toward having science solve our problems and forgetting God. Jonathan Cahn shares how Benjamin Netanyahu was given a word from God to keep Israel’s Biblical covenant to be part of the coming restoration of the Tabernacle of David. Similarly, President Trump by his oath of office is under Biblical covenant. Regardless of their personal problems and life’s challenges, we need to pray for them to look to God in all they do. Watch the amazing movie documenting a true story: “The Trump Prophecy,” available on Amazon Prime.
Back To Our Christian Values
We were raised up as a Christian nation but have, in large measure, turned from Him. Let us join with Jonathan Cahn, and others on Saturday, Sept. 26th, in his invitation to invoke the Lord’s promise given in 2 Chronicles 7:14, and encourage as many as we can to do the same. We needn’t go to Washington D.C to join in effective prayer by calling on His name, humbling ourselves, seeking His face, and turning from all our wicked ways.
If you desire, you can participate in this event by way of Live Simulcast wherever you are, in your home, Church, town, or city. Notice, the invitation is to those who “are called by [His] name” that we might receive His promise.
We have a Living, Loving God
We have a living loving God who wants to protect us. As we are in the valley of decision, let each of us personally repent, turn to Him, and love Him with all our heart, might, mind, and strength by keeping His commandments, which includes loving our neighbors as our selves. Only then we will be entitled to receive the “blessings of heaven” and the “healing of our land.” God Bless America.
