I Prayed have prayed
Lord, please forgive our nation of the terrible sins. May you deliver us from this evil and provide guidance, in Jesus' Name.

This list was compiled by The Federalist, what would have been on your list for 2021?

Events happened this year that would have been believed impossible not long ago, with new lows and technological advances.

The world seemed to get closer to spinning out of its orbit in 2021. If you’d told me five years ago that men would be treated as women, criminals would not be prosecuted, and censorship would be widespread, I wouldn’t have believed you.

What were once considered the most basic, scientific truths (such as that you’re born with your sex and can’t change it) have broken down. Governments are no longer serving their primary function of providing security and protecting borders.

There are many more. As I reflected on the past year, here are just some of the many things that happened in 2021 that I never would have believed possible if someone had foretold them to me just five years ago…

 

Men are now competing with women in sports and being housed with women in prison. In 2021, President Biden appointed a man as a four-star admiral and proclaimed this was the “first” “female” “four-star officer.”

A second shocker is that parents are enabling young children to try to change genders with dangerous surgeries and puberty blockers…

Third, the United States narrowly avoided a draft for women, which was supported by many elected officials in the “conservative” party.

In many U.S. cities, serious crimes are not being prosecuted and crime has surged, with a dozen cities breaking annual homicide records.

Millions of immigrants have crossed illegally into the United States this year, in record numbers…

The former president of the United States is still banned from Facebook and Twitter. Big Tech censors debate on the most important topics of the day…

Parents were labeled “domestic terrorists” by the Biden Justice Department for showing up at school board meetings with complaints…

President Biden misspeaks regularly, to the point that many commentators doubt he’s really the one running the country…

Initially sold as “two weeks to slow the spread,” lockdowns, mask, and vaccine mandates continue two years since COVID-19 started. Some U.S. cities such as Los Angeles, New York, and Washington D.C. are now segregating people from public places to penalize their independent assessment of their medical risks.

As we consider the various things in 2021 that we could not have imagined in 2011 or even 2015, we must remember that none of it, not one thing, surprised God. 

“Remember [carefully] the former things [which I did] from ages past;
For I am God, and there is no one else;
I am God, and there is no one like Me,

Declaring the end and the result from the beginning,
And from ancient times the things which have not [yet] been done,
Saying, ‘My purpose will be established,
And I will do all that pleases Me and fulfills My purpose’

(Is 46:9-10 AMP)

While I see the abominations in the nation, my heart cannot dwell there. We are told to think on ,”whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.” We do this to stay in His peace and hear from Him what He is doing in the midst of this evil onslaught . So my list includes Eph.3:20-21: “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,”
Ephesians 3:20 He is working! He sees and He hears us cry out! He is moving for His own glory and great names’ sake!

I am reading John 19:1ff:

“Father, thank you for loving us so much by giving us Your Only Begotten Son, our Lord and Savior, who endured so much at the hands of evil men in order to show us Your Glory and Power.

Continue showing us how to persevere during this time of national crisis, while knowing that You have already won the battle because Jesus came to destroy the works of the enemy. (I John 3:8)

So, while we walk in this victory, we will continue to press through this national crisis raising up Your Banner of love over us. (Song of Solomon 2:4)

We will shout Your Praises, Your Eternal goodness, as we face these ‘walls of Jericho’. (Joshua 6:5) For in the spirit, they have already come down.

We revel in the reality that Your will in Heaven is being done on earth. (Matthew 6:10)

So, we come against these obstacles of national crises that are mocking Your truth (Psalms 73:8) and declare that they will not prevail.

Show us, therefore, how we are to silence the foolishness of man (I Peter 2:15) by doing good, so that we can walk more closely with You in this truth
