                “…O you hypocrites, you can discern the face of the sky; but                         can you not discern the signs of the times?”  -Jesus (Matt16:3)
 
   Over the past several weeks I have attempted to drive home one particular ‘sign of the times’: Man cannot curse what God has blessed! Balak, the king of Moab, attempted to persuade Balaam, the prophet of God, to curse Israel(Num23:7,11), whom God had already blessed (Gen12:1-3; Num22:12; Num23:8). In the end, the disobedience of both, did not bode well for either the prophet or the king!
   In my recent tidbit series, ‘Miracles of America’s Founding’ I contend--what should be very obvious—the Almighty God has blessed America!* There are few, if any nations in the history of the world that have prospered like America! How did it happen? The favor of God (Ps5:12; Pro14:34)! Or, the blessing of the Lord(Ps33:12)!
    Because of God’s favor,* i.e.God’s blessing on this nation—one should be very carefulspeaking against what God has blessed! God protects His own(Ps34:7; Deut28:7), and returns the curse on the head of those who curse what He has blessed(Gen12:1-3).  The Bible clearly warns: “Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” (1Chron16:22; Ps105:15). The principle that God protects His own is not limited to Israel; or to an individual; or to a prophet, but extends to anyone or anything with His calling, i.e. His blessing, i.e. His approval!

   Following are just a few examples of God’s hand of blessing upon America:
               1.There has been no other nation in the history of the world
                  that has facilitated prosperity for so many of its people!!
               2.An Unprecedented number of minorities, including an
                  unprecedented number of Blacks, have achieved, in many
                  instances---wild prosperity; more so than in any  other
                 nation on earth
— including Black African nations!!!
               3.Electing a Black president for not one, but two terms of office;
                  something no other  predominantly White, Hispanic, Asian, or
                   Arab (etc.) nation has ever done in the history of the
                   world!!!!
               4.Although slavery has been a blight on the past record of every
                  culture, nation, and ethnicity, America is the only nation in the
                   history of the world to willfully elect a descendent of the
                  enslaved group as its leader(president)!
               5.America is the only nation in the history of the world to elect
                   a former member of  the enslaved group as president in less
                  than 150 years after ending slavery!
               6.America was the second nation in the history of the world
                  (England-1833) to end slavery not by a slave uprising, but by
                  the conscience of the slave-holder!!!
               7.The conscience of America was changed by the
                  Judeao/Christian ethic, which created  Western culture, which
                  for the first time in the history of the world has led to many
                 nations abolishing slavery!!! America is the leader in exporting
                  the Judaeo/Christian ethic!!
 
   In spite of all these unprecedented accomplishments, according to liberalism, America is not only a racist nation, but THE MOST racist nation in the world! Sadly, even the NFL and NBA have fallen prey to this invented liberal myth!
   Interestingly, the NFL players, beginning with Colin Kaepernick, cite White police brutality (murder of young Black men) as their number ONE evidence*** for America’s racism. Every national video I have ever seen ONLY shows police shooting Blacks---in spite of the fact that police shoot nearly double the number of Whites!****
                                                       
2015                               2016
Whites -494                 White -466
Blacks -254                   Black – 233
Hispanics-172                Hispanic-160

  Liberalism declares America is racist, and police are racist, in spite of the fact that Black deaths by police do not even make the top 7 ways Blacks die:
            --Police shootings -233 (2016)                                                          
                      2011   
           7.HIV deaths-4,138
           6.Firearm Homocides-6,100 (over 6000 annual homicides of Black
               young men)
            5.Diabetes death-12,771
            4.Accidental deaths-12,299
            3.Cancer deaths-66,158
            2.Heart disease-90,888
             1.Abortion-Over 300,000 Black babies aborted annually!
                     (Toomanyaborted.com)
 
   Liberalism declares America is racist, and police are racist, in spite of the fact that on 9/20/16, Black man Keith Lamont Scott was killed by police, which ignited several days of rioting in Charlotte, North Carolina!!! Incredibly, there was not one word from the SAME media over ‘five’ White men who were killed by police on the very same day!!! http://killedbypolice.net/
 
Liberals, and especially the liberal media, purposely suppress truth!!! (Rom1:18)
 
  It is obvious to all but the willfully ignorant that God has blessed America! To curse what God has blessed…reverses the curse on the head of the curser! The Sovereign, eternal God will not be mocked:
               There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the
​                LORD  –Pro21:30
 
  
 
* I offer the miracles at America’s founding as evidence of God’s hand irrevocably upon this
nation! In other words, what God has called…no man can negate(Rom11:29)!
**America’s Declaration and Constitution have facilitated freedom not only for America, but for
the world!
***https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka0446tibig&t=457s  (1:36; 6:02)
****Liberals, particularly liberal Blacks and Hispanics, continually claim that “people of color”
(by which they mean Blacks and Hispanics) are being targeted by police, when the facts
indicate that more Whites are shot by police than Blacks and Hispanics combined!!!

As a independent (not liberal, not far right) black man as far as I can see no one is cursing America once again this article is like so meny I’ve read before deflecting from the reason Colin Kaepernick took a knee it seams like no one on the right wants to have an honest conversation about rhesus him and a miracle I do have to tell you after all of the articles and news programs I’ve watched ever since this whole debate about Kaepernick taking a knee really has me leaning towards the left and here’s why by the right deflecting the real reason Kaepernick has taken the knee no one is saying all police are racist nor are we saying that because you’re black you don’t deserve to be shot but what Kaepernick and now other athletes are protesting is these young black men being shot and killed that are unarmed now that we have video we can now see this to be true what I don’t understand is with the right and the evangelicals that are supposed to be pro life somehow are silent when we all see from the video’s that show these unarmed men being gunned down pro life is just that pro life not just when a women wants a abortion sadly this is another “black people issue” where it should be the whole nation’s issue so you see no one is cursing America we all love this country but as blacks we still have meny battles still to fight HIV, hypertension, obesity breast cancer,colon cancer all these illnesses are the leading causes more then any other group so when I see a young black brotha confronted and being in harms way by the police it’s disturbing and makes me angry because we as black people have to fight on so meny different fronts and what makes me just as mad and angry is people don’t want to talk about this problem they rather deflect and show how blessed we are and I guess we’re supposed to be good little negroes and be happy that we live in a country that is blessed and never mind of all what we have to indor and when I read articles like this from a black man somehow I feel like you’re saying just be grateful like a house nigger, you see house niggers get more on there plate then field niggers did they where more privilege but I’m from the school where I’m not free till my brothas and sistas are free so taking a knee has nothing to do with disrespecting the flag, or the military some people care more about disrespecting the flag then a human life oh and far as the military they fought for our freedom free to take a knee
