Counsel to the Nation 1

“By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.” Proverbs 8:15(KJV)

Today, I want to share with you five essentials necessary for a nation to succeed. These essentials were proposed by the best economist in the world. They said that such a nation must have:

1.A rich modern highly productive agricultural base.
2.A rich base of energy bearing materials.
3.An abundant supply of non energy bearing materials.
4.A highly-developed technology.
5.A highly educated and sophisticated population.

So these five essentials, according to the best economists in the world, are necessary for a nation to succeed.

But I want to let you know that there is more needed than just those five essentials. Other essentials like justice is also needed.

Justice is important because no nation can thrive without the Rule of Law. So long as there is no justice, there will be perpetuated corruption. And so long as there is corruption, no one will be loyal to the nation.

It is important you note that, “no nation can rise beyond the loyalty of her own people.”

So that’s where we must begin as a nation, if we are going to rise and succeed as we desire to, there must be justice, and the rule of law must be upheld. There must be penalties for corruption. This is what will bring about increased loyalty of our people to the nation.

PRAYER
Dear Father I pray for every one of our political leaders, from the President to the least person in the position of authority - grant them wisdom and an understanding heart to be able to carry out the affairs of this nation rightly in Jesus Name. Amen.
