God has blessed the United States more than any nation in human history.
In turn, the United States has been a blessing to more nations than any nation in human history.
The United States has shared the reaping of its harvest to many nations with food, money, technology, inventions, health care, and education for more than two hundred years.
In return, the United States has received very little gratitude from nations it has helped---no, not even a "thank you" card of appreciation.
While the United States has helped other nations to get on their feet, many of these nations have done nothing to stand on their own feet and to provide better environments for their own citizens. It is as if they continue to stand in unemployment lines, waiting for another check, or in a food line, waiting for another meal. While those nations have received the education and the technology to reap the harvest of their own lands, and to provide for themselves, it is as if their plows have never touched the dirt.
Over the past two thousand years, God has blessed those nations that have received and accepted the Gospel of Jesus Christ---namely, the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Western Europe.
Whereas, nations that have rejected Christ have continued to live under the dome of paganism, witchcraft, voodoo, and the beating of drums to conjure evil spirits. By rejecting Christ, they have rejected the blessings of Almighty God; and from not receiving the blessings of God, they have also rejected education, technology, inventions, health care, and financial prosperity. Thus, for two thousand years, those nations have continued to live without proper sanitation systems, with sicknesses, starvation, diseases, shortened life expectancies, where babies do not receive daily baths, and where toddlers walk naked in villages and hamlets.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. (Psalm 33: 12)
Therefore, if this nation or any nation forgets that God is the LORD, we will suffer for a lack of gratitude. If we should cease from giving God thanks and appreciation, our blessings will become a curse.
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.
