Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
Daniel 8:23-25
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
When does transgressors come to a full?
Hitler, Stalin, etc...
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
The message is repent and turn to God through the Messiah Jesus. The root of the problem is have rejected our Maker. There is only one destiny for nations that decide to do so. Every nation that turns it's back on God is destroyed confirmed by secular history.
Don't be surprised when you see foreign soldiers on American soil. When that happens, we will be reaping what we sowed.

Clavicle 2:21 states,
"He who killeth the lamb upon the stone of City-Data shall flurben greatly until thine thus widgets did hail from thee blerg. And it was good."
so I don't think we have anything to worry about.. you are just looking at the wrong verses.
Yep; anytime someone likens the running of a business or country to edicts from God, I get a chill down my spine because once anyone in power starts invoking the "will of God" in his speech patterns I know it's just a matter of time before a bunch of folks are going to die for financial reasons.
Whose God?
Your God, or my God?
Which God of the over 200 are we gonna march for?
How many dead are there moldering away all over this planet in the name of someone's God?
Leave God out of politics altogether; he wants no part of your partisan bickering invoked in his name.
Keep your God in your heart instead of on your sleeve and perhaps we can then demand others do so as well.
Thinking you are an emissary for any God is elevating your status above your station and risking the wrath of that very God, were he to actually exist.
In short; Keep your particular God to yourself and stop causing trouble in his name.

Funny it seems the most secular nations in Europe are flourishing. And what about China? One of the least Christian nations and also one of the oldest. Is God just saving their destruction for last?
Silly bible thumper
