Do we want a godly President or a revival in our nation? Perhaps we can’t have both.
Maybe we can’t have revival with a “godly” leader in office that allows the church to continue to sit in on its comfortable sofa entrusting the righteousness of America into the hands of political leaders. It was never to be entrusting there. Righteousness for a nation is entrusted in God’s church.
Read MoreI’m Not Satisfied
I have walked the streets of notorious urban communities. I have ministered the Gospel in four continents. I have seen miracles. I have witnessed God’s hand rescuing people from darkness. But I am not satisfied. I am not content to stay where I am. I am not content to know what I know of Him and know no more.

“We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven; we have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no nation has ever grown. “But we have forgotten God.

Read MoreThere is still hope, America!
The United States of America has enjoyed the favor of God and His protection and blessings for over 200 years. Founded on Biblical principles and in the fear of the Lord, bowing their knees and praying to God were common acts of our Forefathers in forming this nation. At his first inauguration, George Washington prayed…

If I had to choose, I would choose the church under a tree with these qualities over a performance that stirs my emotions but does not rend my soul.
