Psalm 145:2-9
2 Every day I will bless you
and praise your name forever and ever.
3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
and his greatness is unsearchable.
4 One generation shall commend your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
5 On the glorious splendor of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
6 They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds,
and I will declare your greatness.
7 They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
8 The Lord is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 The Lord is good to all,
and his mercy is over all that he has made.
"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here."
- Patrick Henry
"This is all the inheritance I can give my dear family. The religion of Christ can give them one which will make them rich indeed."
- Patrick Henry
"It is necessary for the welfare of the nation that men's lives be based on the principles of the Bible. No man, educated or uneducated, can afford to be ignorant of the Bible."
- Theodore Roosevelt
"We Recognize No Sovereign but God, and no King but Jesus!
- John Adams and John Hancock, Founding Fathers (April 18, 1775)
"Without God there is no virtue because there is no prompting of the conscience...without God there is a coarsening of the society; without God democracy will not and cannot long endure...If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a Nation gone under."
- Ronald Reagan
I do not believe that the Constitution was the offspring of inspiration, but I am as satisfied that it is as much the work of a Divine Providence as any of the miracles recorded in the Old and New Testament.
- Benjamin Rush
We overlook men trying to do the will of God. We try to judge their hearts in an attempt to understand what really made them tick. Why this debate, do we believe - If we do not pass the test of perfection, we cannot be a Christ follower. Surely we must join in men rejoicing in God's blessings.
Thank You, Father God, for Your Greatness. The Mighty Acts You've given to enjoy freedom. To bask in the efforts of people willing to do acts of greatness greater than their capabilities or giving us acts of sacrifice. Mankind blessing us with Your abundant goodness. You are good to all, and Your mercy is over all You have made. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
