UPON THIS ROCK, WE BUILD
While listening to the recounting of our Thanksgiving memorial as a nation, these few thoughts dropped in my spirit that I want to share today about the founding of this great nation we live in.
As our forefathers came to this land, several major miracles made the difference between success and failure.
First, we are the only nation founded as a Christian nation based upon the laws of God and the Bible from its inception. We are the only nation where rulership is from the bottom up, not the top down. This is what our Bill of Rights and Constitution means: the people have a voice regarding who is in charge and who will lead us.
Another central foundation stone in this nation is property rights, with a legal paper proving to the officials that we own this land we live on.
Another unique thing was that each person could get involved in a free market, trading and making a profit for themselves.
All these things were not true in the other nations the people came from. Yet God provided us a place to plant seeds of freedom that might grow into a tree big enough to bless the world.
The first two miracles that stood out to me in the early days are so identified with God's timing that they can't be denied.
The ones who founded Jamestown in Virginia came near starvation in the first year because they did not plant crops to eat through the winter. They ended up eating rats, dung, and shoelaces, so the historians tell us.
When the winner had ended, they packed their ship up, having given up on the founding of Jamestown, and headed for home. With all practical understanding, this experiment was over.
As they got to the mouth of the Potomac River, heading into the Great Ocean, they met another ship from England with all the supplies they needed and people to help them.
Only in a two-hour window of time did God perform a miracle. Did Jamestown become the founding city of that region?
The second miracle is even more impressive of God's timing and planning. It concerns the founding of the New England area with the pilgrims.
The Native American Indian that God had pre-arranged to be the one to save them from starvation and conflict with the neighboring native tribes is a miracle story in itself. Years before he was taken captive as an enslaved person, back to England, a group of monks purchased him and taught him English and Spanish and how to read and write. Then, they gave him his freedom, and he came back to his native land, joining himself in the neighboring tribe.
He was the one who walked into their camp one day, speaking English, teaching them about the seeds that would grow best, and negotiating peace with the tribes that were around.
Because of God's timing, the founding of this nation took seed.
We are definitely built on the rock Christ Jesus.
