From My Perspective - - -
There are several phenomena occurring. Today, Wednesday – March 4th – there has been a solicitation an call for this to be a National Day of Prayer and Fasting. On www.christianpost.com the following article appears: CHRISTIANS TO HOLD NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER, FASTING FOR AMERICA by Jennifer Riley. She writes: “Christians nationwide are joining together for a national day of prayer and fasting for America on Wednesday. Participants will pray and confess their sins to God and commit to obeying His laws in hopes that God will rescue the country from its current economic crisis. America's greatest need is to cry out to God about the sins in America, humble ourselves in prayer and start obeying what God says in the Holy Bible…” Question: Where has this been publicized? Who knew? How many will participate?
At the same time, an article entitled, THE OBAMA ECONOMY, Wall Street Journal - March 3rd, 2009 has been published. It reviews the financial plight of our nation and what they consider to be a root cause for the present state of affairs: “As 2009 opened, three weeks before Barack Obama took office, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 9034 on January 2, its highest level since the autumn panic. Yesterday the Dow fell another 4.24% to 6763, for an overall decline of 25% in two months and to its lowest level since 1997. The dismaying message here is that President Obama's policies have become part of the economy's problem. Americans have welcomed the Obama era in the same spirit of hope the President campaigned on. But after five weeks in office, it's become clear that Mr. Obama's policies are slowing, if not stopping, what would otherwise be the normal process of economic recovery. From punishing business to squandering scarce national public resources, Team Obama is creating more uncertainty and less confidence -- and thus a longer period of recession or sub-par growth. So what has happened in the last two months? One negative revelation has been the way he has chosen to spend his scarce resources on income transfers rather than growth promotion. Most of his "stimulus" spending was devoted to social programs, rather than public works, and nearly all of the tax cuts were devoted to income maintenance rather than to improving incentives to work or invest. His Treasury has been making a similar mistake with its financial bailout plans. The banking system needs to work through its losses, and one necessary use of public capital is to assist in burning down those bad assets as fast as possible. Yet most of Team Obama's ministrations so far have gone toward triage and life support, rather than repair and recovery.
Meanwhile, Fox News Reports today: RUSSIAN SCHOLAR SAYS U.S. WILL COLLAPSE NEXT YEAR. “If you're inclined to believe Igor Panarin, and the Kremlin wouldn't mind if you did, then President Barack Obama will order martial law this year, the U.S. will split into six rump-states before 2011, and Russia and China will become the backbones of a new world order. Panarin might be easy to ignore but for the fact that he is a dean at the Foreign Ministry's school for future diplomats and a regular on Russia's state-guided TV channels. And his predictions fit into the anti-American story line of the Kremlin leadership. There is a high probability that the collapse of the United States will occur by 2010," Panarin told dozens of students, professors and diplomats Tuesday at the Diplomatic Academy… Vladmir Putin, the former president who is now prime minister, has likened the United States to Nazi Germany's Third Reich and blames Washington for the global financial crisis that has pounded the Russian economy…”
Consider these things with me - - - It is possible The End is nearer than most suspect. However, even if that is the case, the person of faith should remember and practice PSALM 20:6-9, “Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving might of His right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright.” Many suggest that one should read the end of The Book (Bible) – We Win! God will prove Himself faithful to all who trust in Him. There’s a growing list of places and people who have duped many and are not worthy of trust. But The Lord – you can always Trust In Him – He Never Fails and is Always Faithful to His people!
