The Christian Flag

I never thought that in my lifetime I would see our great land attacked on our own soil.  History will record for future generations the travesty that was inflicted upon our land.  And to think that some in this great land did not want the perpetrators brought to justice.  It was God’s desire that we had a leader in place that would follow the paths of our forefathers and make amends for wrongs done to the United States.  Men fought for this land in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812 and many other great conflicts and battles of the past.  It took men with a back bone to accomplish God’s desires for this great country.  Thank You President Bush.

Our Nation's Flag is a stirring sight

 

As it flutters proudly in the breeze

Its colors of blue, red and white

Mean so much to you and me

Red stands for courage and hardiness

The white means innocence and purity

Blue for justice, perserverance and vigilance

In its promise to keep us free.

 

This banner stands for a bountiful land,

Its government, people, and ideals,

The stripes from the thirteen colonies stand,

Its symbolism is very real.

Each State now is represented

By a star of white on blue

President Washington first presented

The American Flag to You.

 

Many brave men have fought and died

To protect it from dishonor and disgrace.

Wives have mourned and mothers have cried

So we could remain...the United States.

The sight of this Banner brings feeling of joy,

Of courage, pride and freedom to all.

A symbol of our nation in all it's glory,

On the moon Old Glory stands tall

 

 

 

I am the flag of the United States of America.
My name is Old Glory.
I fly atop the world's tallest buildings.
I stand watch in America's halls of justice.
I fly majestically over great institutions of learning.
I stand guard with the greatest military power in the world.
Look up and see me!
I stand for peace, honor, truth and justice.
I stand for freedom.
I am confident.
I am arrogant.
I am proud.
When I am flown with my fellow banners, my head is a little higher, my colors a little truer.
I bow to no one.
I am recognized all over the world.
I am worshipped, I am loved, and I am feared!
I have fought in every battle of every war for more than 200 years: Gettysburg, Shilo, Appomattox, San Juan Hill, the trenches of Normandy, Guam, Okinawa, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, in the Persian Gulf, and a score of places long forgotten by all but those who were there with me.
I was there!
I led my soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen.
I followed them and watched over them. They loved me.
I was on a small hill in Iwo Jima.
I was dirty, battle-worn and tired.
But my soldiers cheered me!
And I was proud!
I have been soiled, burned, torn, and trampled on the streets of countries that I have helped set free.
It does not hurt - for I am invincible.
I have been soiled, burned, torn and trampled on the streets of my own country, and when it is by those whom I have served with in battle, it hurts - for I am their own.
But I shall overcome.
For I am strong!
I have slipped the bonds of earth and from my vantage point on the moon,
I stand watch over the uncharted new frontiers of space.
I have been a silent witness to all of America's finest hours. But my finest hour comes when I am torn in strips to be used as bandages For healing my wounded comrades on the field of battle; when I fly at half mast to honor my soldiers, my sailors, my airmen, my Marines, and my Coast Guardsmen; and when I lie in the trembling arms of a grieving mother, at the graveside of her fallen son or daughter.
I am proud.
My name is "Old Glory" long may I wave, dear God, long may I wave!

If there was ever a time to Pray for America, it is now.  Psalms 33:12 tells us Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.  Exodus 33:13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee; that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.  The nation Israel was set aside in Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.  I believe this was America, God’s people are still the Israelites, but he has bestowed upon this nation tremendous blessings.  We have enjoyed the fruits thereof, we need to continue to support Israel, we need to keep this nation a Christian nation that honors and glorifies God.  I do not want to lose the fruits that have been bestowed upon this land.  We need to repent and come back to God with a fervor that once belonged to our Founding Fathers of this great nation—America.

How could we ever forget?  But there will be those that will forget the thousands of lives lost that day.  Innocent civilians that were murdered by cowards that can not stand up and fight like a man against a real army.  I will not forget.  Help us O’ Lord.
