America – Do You Want to Return to God?

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: O America, do you want to return to God? Then turn back to Him before it’s too late! God will respond positively to you! But your repentance must be honest and sincere. Be faithful to God, America! Remove the idols and all the detestable things from your lives that God hates! Stop going astray after your false gods. Then you will once again be “One nation under God.” Then you will once again be blessed by God. Then you will once again be an example to the world of a godly, God worshipping people and the nations of the world ask God to bless them and they will praise Him! 

The LORD says to the people of America: “O America, if you wanted to return to Me, you could. You could throw away your detestable false gods out of My sight and waver and stray away no more. Then when you would swear by My Name, saying, ‘As surely as the Lord lives,’ you could do so with truth, justice, and righteousness. Then you would be a blessing to the nations of the world, and all people would come and praise My Name.”[1] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: O America, return to God in true and genuine repentance—not just outward and superficial but inward and heartfelt—or God’s wrath will be released and burn like fire against you! Just as a farmer does not sow his seed on unplowed ground, so God does not sow His seed of blessing in unrepentant hearts. O people of America, the hour is late and you need to break up the unplowed ground of your hearts through sorrowful repentance! 

The LORD says to the people of America: “Plow up your unplowed fields; do not plant your seeds among thorns. Keep your covenant—‘One nation under God’—with Me your LORD and dedicate yourselves to Me, you people of America. If you don’t, My anger will burn like fire because of the evil things you have done. It will burn, and there will be no one to put it out.”[2] 

The Voice of Jeremiah’s plea: O America, overwhelming chaos is coming to your nation! [3] No matter where I look, the LORD shows me ruin and devastation! Even the stable mountains will shake! Only God’s mercy can keep you from complete destruction! [4] But the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world, specializes in hopeless cases. He breaks the power of sin and He sets the prisoner free from the bondage of his sin. [5] Repent, mourn your sin, turn back to God, and be saved before it is too late!
