By Pastor Reggie Kelley 

GOD’S IN CONTROL O’ AMERICA! HE PLACES THOSE IN CHARGE AND HE REMOVES THEM AT HIS WILL! AMERICA! WE MUST RETURN TO GOD IN ALL THINGS AND ALL WAYS! WITHOUT GOD AMERICA WILL FAIL! TRUST HIM!

GOD’S IN CONTROL O’ AMERICA! HE PLACES THOSE IN CHARGE AND HE REMOVES THEM AT HIS WILL! AMERICA! WE MUST RETURN TO GOD IN ALL THINGS AND ALL WAYS! WITHOUT GOD AMERICA WILL FAIL! TRUST HIM!

Isaiah 3:1-26 1For, behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water. 2The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient, 3The captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator. 4And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. 5And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honorable. 6When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand: 7In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.

8For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of his glory. 9The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. 10Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. 11Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. 12As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. 13The Lord standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people. 14The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.

15What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord God of hosts. 16Moreover the Lord saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: 17Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will discover their secret parts. 18In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon, 19The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers, 20The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings, 21The rings, and nose jewels, 22The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, 23The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.

24And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty. 25Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. 26And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.

LISTEN TO GOD O’ AMERICA! BE HIS NATION FIRST AND FOREMOST! OUR FOREFATHERS RESTED THEIR FAITH IN THE HAND OF GOD! WE, NOW, MUST PLACE OUR FAITH IN THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY GHOST! O’ AMERICA! BE GOD’S NATION!

In the name of Jesus Christ, I love you…Please come to church to hear, study and learn the WORD of God.

Just COME AS YOU ARE. God Bless!
