Adapted from Dr. Lee Roberson by Pastor Rick Jackson
Israel was warned but Israel
forgot. In America we started out with people whose intent was to serve God and
worship Him- the puritans, the pilgrims, the early colonists, the founding
fathers… but America has forgotten. America has left and laughed at the
fundamentals of the faith [salvation by grace, Heaven, Hell, the second coming,
etc.]. America has desecrated God’s day. Sunday is a holyday not a holiday. It
is the Lord’s Day. America has come to worship two idols- money and pleasure.
We need to remember-
I. THE HOLY WORD OF
GOD [Teach it, believe it, preach it, practice it, share it!]
1. Don’t Forget it is God’s Gift to us! [2 Peter 1:19-21]
The Bible is the rock on which this Republic rests. - Andrew
Jackson
2. Don’t Forget it is God’s Word [2 Tim. 2:15]
A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a
college education. - Theodore Roosevelt
3. Don’t Forget it is God’s Will [2 Tim. 3:16-17]
Hold fast to the Bible. To the influence of this Book we are
indebted for all the progress made in true civilization and to this we must
look as our guide in the future. - Ulysses S. Grant
Within the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the
problems men face. - Ronald Reagan
II. TO SPEAK TO GOD
IN PRAYER
1. It is the Way of
Obedience [Lk. 18:1, I Thess. 5:17]
2. It is the Way to Get Our Needs [James 4:2]
3. It is the Way to
Have Revival [2 Chr. 7:14]
III. TO SERVE GOD
1. Serve God Willingly [Hebrews 12:28]
2. Serve God Lovingly [Dt. 6:5, I Cor. 13]
3. Serve God Joyfully [Phil. ]
