“Key Priorities for a Nation!” 2 Chronicles 7:11-18

What a magnificent building Solomon’s Temple must have been… This is but an artist’s depiction of it…

Our text calls for repentance. America needs to repent. America needs to seek the “ancient paths” and get to those key priorities that made her not just a good nation, but a GREAT nation!

Purpose: to reexamine key principles that need to once again become our priorities as a nation

IThe Principle of GOD- CENTERED EDUCATION

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 “Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on hour heart; and you shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. And you shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead…”

IThe Principle of GOD- CENTERED EDUCATION -Beginning stages of our education system… -In recent years… -Schools under the influence... What made America great…

IIThe Principle of MODESTY AND COMMON DECENCY

Ephesians 5:3-5 “But do not let immorality or any impurity or greed even be named among you, as is proper among saints; and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving thanks. For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.”

IIThe Principle of MODESTY AND COMMON DECENCY -What is true for an individual is certainly true for a nation...

Where has modesty and common decency gone?

IIIThe Principle of THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN LIFE

Proverbs 24:11-12 “Deliver those who are being taken away to death, and those who are staggering to slaughter. O, hold them back if you say, ‘See, we did not know this,’ does He not consider it who weighs the hearts? And does He not know it who keeps your soul? And will He not render to man according to his work?”

IIIThe Principle of THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN LIFE -These verses speak to the sanctity of human life…

It’s wrong because God says it’s wrong!!

IIIThe Principle of THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN LIFE -These verses speak to the sanctity of human life… -America is certainly showing contempt for human life… What made America great…

IVThe Principle of FREEDOM

John 8:32 “And you shall know the truth and the truth shall made you free.”

IVThe Principle of FREEDOM -Freedom was in the fore- front of our founder’s…

“God grants liberty only to those who live it, and are always ready to guard it!”

IVThe Principle of FREEDOM -Freedom was in the fore- front of our founder’s… -Ready to promote, defend and live truth… What made America great…

VThe Principle of THE HOME

Ephesians 5:28-33 “So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself; for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church, because we are members of His body. For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is great…”

VThe Principle of THE HOME -Home is one of two divine institutions…

VIThe Principle of CHRIST’S CHURCH

Ephesians 5:25 “Husbands, love your wives just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her.”

VIThe Principle of CHRIST’S CHURCH -Lord’s Church has a divine purpose and pattern… -As the home goes, so goes the church… What made America great…

Peter Marshall (author and preacher) “The choice before us is plain. Christ or chaos, conviction or compromise, discipline or disintegration. I am rather tired of hearing about our rights and privileges as American citizens. The time has come, it now is when we ought to hear about the duties and responsibilities of our citizenship…”

Conclusion and Summary God, however said it best: “If My people, who are called by My name, will 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 heal their land.”
