Remind you of anything??? As a World War II buff, I am reminded of the Third Reich. They were quite an outfit, very disciplined, very determined, but very, very wrong. How? Their oath of allegiance was to Adolf Hitler himself. He and he alone was to be their leader; God was to be out of the picture; they were bound to fail! Here is the formula for success.
Josh 1:6-9
6 Be strong and of good courage; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
7 Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you: don't turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate thereon day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
9 Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; don't be afraid, neither be dismayed: for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.WEB

How many kingdoms have risen only to fall since these words were spoken? Yet, the followers of the God of Creation are still following HIS WORD. Tell you anything? Success isn't in blind obedience to any man, but rather to GOD ALONE! Adolf Hitler came to power because of economic hard times and a sense of failure; don't let that sort of thing happen in this country. We need to let our leaders know that they do NOT HAVE ABSOLUTE CONTROL OVER US; because GOD holds that position. America, are you listening?
