"If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3)
From what I have gathered over the years, our text basically says, "The foundations are destroyed; there is nothing the righteous can do."
The United States of America is not what it used to be, because its citizens allowed its highest court to outlaw the Prayer of Jesus and the Words of Jesus in its education system. And there is nothing the, "the righteous [can] do", without The Foundation, Jesus Christ, no matter what the "latest word from the Lord" might be. But it is not only the American Government which has departed from its foundation.
"For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ." The Church in America needs to do as the First Century Church, "And daily in the temple, and in every house, they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus Christ." It is only the Church which can do this. The growing trend for some decades now in America has been an ever-increasing departure from, "....teaching and preaching Jesus Christ." Pray that the Church Universal will "get back" to the "pattern" of the Early Church, the Foundation, the Rock upon which Jesus said that He builds His Church, HIMSELF. This alone must be, "....what...the righteous do."
Father, in Jesus' Name, help me to do all I can to maintain, "the foundations." Amen.
