A Nation Under God

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people He has chosen as His own inheritance. Ps 33:12
I’ve seen the devastation of Haiti, the poorest nation in our hemisphere.
My prayer is for the people living there.
But I fail to understand why they are so poor.
America was a land on no commerce.
When the first settlers came to this land it was not to settle into a new cushy job; it was to carve out a nation.
The U. S. has been built from the ground up to become what she has been and is today.
Why can’t other nations, like Haiti, do the same?
Someone said in church that the country of Haiti gave itself over to satanic forces years ago.
If so, then that’s a problem.
Another problem is leadership.
While the people live in shanties the presidential palace was a just that, a palace.
What a nation needs to prosper is two things; people that seek after God and leaders that seek after God.
I fear that our nation is loosing both.
