On God in Society

Our society needs to return to a greater belief in and reliance on God.

Most of us (81%, or more than 4 out of every 5) believe in God.

Where is God in society?

We hardly hear mention of Him in public these days, unless it’s in a Hollywood movie, where His name and existence are often defamed or questioned.

We need to make publicly acknowledging God a normal thing again.

Remember that the American Nation’s motto is “In God we trust.” We are reminded of this on every coin! We acknowledge God’s existence, and we declare that we trust Him.

Remember that our Pledge of Allegiance affirms that we are one nation under God.

Remember these lines from great American music:

“God bless America”

“God shed his grace on thee”

Remember from our Declaration of Independence starts with reverential acknowledgement of God:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

I moved that we speak of God, acknowledge God, pray to God, give thanks to God, trust God, depend on God, obey God, and fear God.


As we look to God during hard times, when we need help, or when we feel anxiety, despair, or suicidal feelings, God will help us!

God is the missing part of our equation. We need God.

And He will bless and prosper us.
