Judgement awaits us. However we do have a choice in the matter

Is 60:12 "For the nation and the kingdom which will not serve you will perish, And the nations will be utterly ruined.

I have been watching some of the pre-inaugural events here in DC. But what concerns me is the current unrepentant state of our nation. Our country is guilty of gross trespasses against the inspired Word of GOD.

We are not unlike Nineveh or even Sodom and Gomorrah and therefore the same pronouncement of judgement awaits us.  

However we do have a choice in the matter. We can repent and turn from wickedness and be spared judgement, as did the city of Nineveh. Or, we can stay on our present course and be destroyed like Sodom and Gomorrah.

I pray we recieve the former outcome described herein and choose the path of Ninevah.

Jon 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God revoked His [sentence of] evil that He had said that He would do to them and He did not do it [for He was comforted and eased concerning them].

Or are we going to reap the tragic outcome of judgement because we are stiff necked and willfully refuse to turn from sin.

Gen 19:24 Then the LORD rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven,
Gen 19:25 and He overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.
