Got Fruit ?

Yesterday was the National Day of Prayer (1st Thursday of May) and my church appropriately enough coordinated the kickoff of our Prayer Ministry to coincide with NDP.  During the event, one of our elders started the gathering off with prayer, followed by commentary and  some Scripture to reflect & meditate upon.  One of the passages of Scripture that I recall “Charles” reading to the group, comes from the book of Psalm 33 (specifically first half of verse 12):

Psalm 33:12
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

This is not an argument or opinion to make claim that the Scripture validates that the US is a Godly minded nation nor that it’s being blessed by God (it’s prosperity being the presumed indicator of such blessing).  I “hear” this as “The nation that through it’s ways; acknowledges & follows God is blessed because they have made the righteous decision”.

Grace and peace be with you.
