When God says...
“Do not remove the ancient landmark Which your fathers have set.” (Proverbs 22:28 NKJV)Using the analogy of ancient landmark not to be removed (which is of the essence to the lives of the early days of Israel, and every nation of today, for that matter) this passage intends to remind us not to tamper on God's timeless landmark of truth. We are warned not to desecrate the boundaries of heavenly norms for living that He firmly established to guide in our journey to the future, from generation to generation.
This is right on the spot. We are continuously experiencing turmoil in our nation where landmarks set by our fathers are ravaged. Those landmarks were to remind us to honor the core on which this nation was founded which sadly were not only moved, but torn down and gutted on the ground. The ungodly and grateful are bent to trample on God's Word. They aim to destroy the legacy of the past generation. They have no respect and appreciation that knowledge and remembrance of the past, help in growing into a refined, strong and better future. Most especially, knowing that this great nation was founded on the Judeo-Christian beliefs and values, guides every citizen to stand on Biblical world view in building a prosperous nation.
We have been blessed and will continue to be blessed as long as our nation honors the sovereignty of Lord Jesus Christ and be governed by the standard of His holy and written Word. In His grace by faith, His promise stands, as it is written, God says: “When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among my people, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:13-14 ESV)
And I say, AMEN!
