What Kind Of People Have We Become?

 


What Kind Of People Have We Become?

"Violence shall no more be heard in your land, devastation or destruction within your borders; you shall call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise."(Isaiah 60:18)

Walk-Line: It is very sad that we have to begin a new year with such horrible acts of violence and terror. With the deadly attack in New Orleans, leaving 15 dead, causes us to ask the question: What kind of a people have we become? Evil is very dominant in our country, as well as around the world. The nation of Israel was promised a time, when violence would not be heard in their land. Devastation and destruction would no longer be a reality. Ultimate peace would prevail in a coming kingdom. How Israel, as well as the world, longs for that today. Let us pray for Israel, America, and the whole world. A prayer that souls will accept Jesus, the Prince of Peace, as Savior, and Lord, today!

What have we become as a people today?
Have we become a vigilante state?
Where lives are ruined and destroyed,
Where violence has entered our gate?

As a nation, we need to look to God,
For the direction that we need.
To be a nation, caring for each other,
allowing the love of Christ to precede.
