The \u201cThen\u201d moment comes after the incident and at the point in time that we realize that God was, and is Lord over the incident. Everything I see and touch, I have to come to the \u201cThen\u201d moment and know that the Lord has designed and fashioned it, whether it is a tree, rock, river, dog, cat, and nation, whatever it is. It could be a troubled time in our life. It could be rebellion, personal or governmental time. There are many things that we didn\u2019t know that God was Lord over. I didn\u2019t know that He had planned for me to meet my wife. He was Lord over it before I even met her. \u201cThen\u201d I knew that He was Lord over our marriage. What a \u201cThen\u201d moment, of course when we first meet God that is the ultimate \u201cThen\u201d moment. Since then, there have been many \u201cThen\u201d moments. When God makes us to know the truth of a matter, those are \u201cThen\u201d moments.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>There are many \u201cThen moments coming in our lives in the future, also in our nation and in the world. What brings the \u201cThen\u201d moments? Unbelief!<\/p>\n<p>There are many in leadership positions in our nation filled with unbelief that God is Lord over our nation and all that\u2019s in it. God never loses any arguments on a matter. He always wins every one, because He is always right. It is so extremely important to God that the earth becomes as it is in heaven, He taught us to pray that way. He will trouble our nation until the \u201cThen\u201d moments come. Some will be gentle and some will be painful. In past times, when Israel put mention of God out of its Society, all kinds of corruption came in. Greed, lust, demon worship, (such as witchcraft), false religions and false gods, ushered in weakness and confusion. God sent prophets to speak to them to correct their course. Unheeding to the gentle correction, He summoned the Assyrian terrorist. When things got so bad that they cried out to God, acknowledging Him as Lord, they had a Great \u201cThen\u201d moment. He delivered them from the horror. By the way, has our nation seen any Assyrian terrorists lately? The ones we see today are of the same family as back then. Unless we acknowledge His Lordship over our nation we will see more of them coming. Our nation is in the latter stage of rebellion against God. We will hear and see more correction because He loves us. Even a rebellious child has a father.<\/p>\n<p>The scripture says, \u201cOur ways are not His ways and His ways are not our ways\u201d. The \u201cThen\u201d moments bring us in line with His way. There are no \u201cThen\u201d moments in heaven. The people in heaven had their \u201cThen\u201d moments on the earth, that\u2019s why they are in heaven.<\/p>\n<p>There will be painful \u201cThen\u201d moments in our nation now and in the future. The length of the pain is directly related to our stubbornness.<\/p>\n<p>I had rather our \u201cThen\u201d moment would come sooner than later, and God does too.<\/p>\n<p>David McClary<\/p>\n<p>Avoicefromthemountain.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThen You Will Know That I Am The Lord\u201d There are many \u201cThen\u201d moments in our lives.
