Pr. 28:28 [The Message]

When corruption takes over, good people go underground,
    but when the crooks are thrown out, it’s safe to come out.

This entire proverb is good to consider concerning government decay. Maintaining a culture of Godliness is nothing new. The Jews did it in their Egyptian bondage. They did it in their Babylonian bondage. The pilgrims were seeking religious freedom when they sailed to the shores of America on the Mayflower.

Personal faith, family devotions, faithful church attendance, enrolling your children in a Christian school … these are bastions of Christian culture that must be maintained when we see the culture of our nation in decline and decay.

Lord Jesus, bring about a spiritual revival for our nation.
