Psalm 33:12 - America, This Is Your Wake-Up Call.

Psalm 33:12 (NKJV) Blessed is the nation 
whose God is the LORD, The people He has chosen as 
His own inheritance.  

Psalm 33:12 (NLT) What joy for the nation 
whose God is the Lord, whose people he has chosen 
as his inheritance. 

COMMENTARY

Our Nations Two Choices
   The 75th Anniversary issue of Forbes 
magazine featured the theme Why we feel so bad 
when we have it so good. It noted that 
Americans live better than any other people on the 
planet, yet so many in our culture seem depressed. 
   Then-editor James Michaels wrote, Why 
is this nation that marched so proudly into the 
20th century slouching so dejectedly toward the 
third millennium? The article went on to cite 
the alarming loss of values, absolutes, and 
meaning in contemporary life. 
   Whats gone wrong? The person on the 
lowest rung of the economic ladder in America has 
it better than most other people in the world 
today. We have all these things that citizens of 
other countries dream about, yet we still have a 
sense of emptiness. Why? 
   I think Abraham Lincoln answered it well 
when he said, We have forgotten God. We have 
forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in 
peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened 
us; and we have vainly imagined, in the 
deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were 
produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our 
own. 
   President Lincoln was right. We have 
forgotten God. And its even truer today than when 
he made that proclamation in 1863. Weve 
tried to push God out of the courtroom, out of the 
classroom, and, for all practical purposes, out of our 
culture. 
   Will good ever prevail over evil? Or, are 
we simply doomed to failure? The answer to 
Americas problems is not political; its spiritual. 
We need to turn back to God. 
   Therefore, it is my belief that our 
country has two choices before it: One is judgment. 
The other is a spiritual awakening or revival. 
And that is what we need to pray for today in 
the United States of America. [Greg Laurie from
