Psalm 33:12 & Proverbs 14:34

Our Moment of Divine Destiny “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord…” Psalm 33:12 “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.” Proverbs 14:34

The Price of Freedom Acts 22:28: “...With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.” Freedom for us, which began on July 4th, 1776, came at a very high price. Of the fifty-six men who signed the Declaration of Independence, nine died of wounds or hardships during the war and five were captured & imprisoned. Several lost their wives and children or their entire family. One of them lost all thirteen of his children. All fifty-six of them were victims of manhunts and were driven from their homes. Twelve had their homes burned. Seventeen of them lost everything they owned. Yet, not one of them defected. Yes, a great sum was paid for our freedom. Freedom that we too often take for granted. Let’s celebrate & thank God for America and those that paid a great price for our freedom. Pastor Bob

Lord, lead us to be obedient. “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.” Luke 11:28
