President Trump's rallying cry is "MAGA" - "Make America Great Again", and he's succeeding on many levels despite fierce opposition. However, we, as a nation, cannot succeed in becoming great unless we define greatness from God's perspective, then seek that greatness. We must become spiritually great or our natural successes will avail us nothing, in the long run. Natural wealth exists for us to build spiritual wealth, not the other way around. So I say, make the Church in America great again! We, as Christians, should adopt this as our rallying cry! We should abandon our "religion" and embrace Christ instead for the Church in America is a far cry from the vibrant, Spirit filled and led, blood bought Church we see in the book of Acts, where miracles and the Holy Spirit's presence are the children's daily bread.
Throughout the New Testament, we see references to the saints as warriors, with penultimate power and authority given by God so they may literally be His ambassadors, His representatives on the earth in their generation, yet America continues to stink, spiritually. We are like the Laodicean church in America today - wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, spiritually, yet ignorant of our true condition, focused instead on money and material wealth, on possessions and status from a worldly perspective, saying in our hearts, we are increased with goods and have need of nothing - therefore God is pleased with us.
I find it interesting that "MAGA" in Hebrew means "contact combat". We must make contact with our enemy in order to defeat him. We cannot stand any longer on one side of the valley and shout at him on the other side but never actually engage him in combat. When he sends his Goliath's, we must not cower in fear. Like David, we must engage him in open warfare in the Spirit realm, as well as lay hands on the demon infested and cast them out. We must cleanse America of her demons!
To continue the idea of "MTCIAGA" - "Make The Church In America Great Again" - Just as Trump has encountered great opposition from people whom he only wishes to help and do good to, so too will anyone wishing to help the churches and the saints in them caught in religion. It's amazing to me that people who could be mightily blessed by embracing Trump and his agenda, choose instead to hate and resist him at every turn - yet many today treat Jesus the same way. His only desire is to rescue them and deliver them from evil, from mediocrity, from a life lacking true (spiritual) riches. Yet they deny Him, they resist Him, they quench the Holy Spirit in their midst at every opportunity. Just like the never-Trumpers and Democrats who refuse to accept any blessing if it comes through Trump. Madness has gripped some of the USA's citizens, a sizeable number in fact, just as madness has gripped many of the denizens of the kingdom og God. "I see madmen begetting madmen" to quote Moby Dick.
Let's all wake up and "Arise and be Doing"! Let's get this message out there to as many people as possible, copy and paste, share, share share! Download it into your heart so you can speak it again. Let's submit ourselves to the Holy Spirit and His agenda for our Father's children, our brethren. Let's individuallyobey Him, then corporately we'll become the people He wants us to be. LET'S MAKE THE CHURCH IN AMERICA AND AROUND THE WORLD GREAT AGAIN! Selah.
