He increaseth the nations

“He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again.” (Job 12:23)

It is best that as a nation, if we put all of our trust in God. After all, He is the one and only at the helm. We may think we are in control of our destiny, but God’s will, will be done. And what is His will? It can be boiled down to one word. Love. Love of God. Love of each other. True love is holy and righteous, and that’s what God wants us to be.

“But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy” (1 Peter 1;15-16).

“…God is in the generation of the righteous” (Psalm 14:5).

God will course correct His children back to the way, the truth and the life, no matter how much we yell, kick or scream.
