“One Nation Under God” is about the movement in American back to its Judeo-Christian roots, and Make America GODLY Again (MAGA). Each of the 120 in the “Upper Room” were prayerfully selected, and have played a role in the movement of our nation back to Godly values. They are not all believers (yet), but they each tell a part of the story. Jesus Christ (Lion of Judah and Holy Spirit) is on the throne at the capital. I’m grateful to God for the election results of 2024, and It is my prayer that this nation seek God in all things, as we cannot win any battles without Him. "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and I will heal their land" (2 Chronicles 7:14) While there is much debate recently about our nations Judaeo Christian roots, the original 13 American colonies required a religious oath to hold public office, which often included professing belief in Jesus Christ. Our public officials are sworn in on a Holy Bible. Not long ago, all those witnessing in court were required to swear in on the Bible. From the first to the last sentence of The Declaration of Independence, it boldly credits God as the guide for our nation and the source that endows humans with unalienable rights. While I would argue that this and many other things definitively point to our nations foundation on Godly principles, I would say that our current state is far from that. America has fallen away from its roots and wickedness has been allowed to reign for far too long. Our nation is largely dead in Christ…we have forgotten who we are and have become “lovers of self”, just as the word of God prophesied. As a nation we must humble ourselves, repent (turn around), and seek God’s wisdom in ALL things. We cannot win any battles against the “woke mind virus”, or any other evil, without God. "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land" (2 Chronicles 7:14). We are nothing apart from God. Without roots, the vine withers and dies. BUT, with God…”we are more than conquers”. “If God is for us, who can be against us”? Every person in this painting, and YOU were born “for a time such as this”. We’ve been conditioned to believe that it is impolite to discuss politics and religion. But I ask you, should the Godless, govern the Godly? If the God fearing believers in the Gospel of Jesus and the Holy Bible do not impact our governance with righteous biblical principles…then does that not mean that the God ”less” govern them and all of God’s people? Would it not be a much better country, if more TRUE followers of Jesus stepped up to lead our nation? On November 5th 2024, the freedom bells rang once again. By overwhelming majority, a mandate to STOP the madness, and to restore TRUTH and JUSTICE (who is Jesus). Common sense, has been uncommon as of late. God has used what His enemy meant for evil to wake up a host of sleeping lions…and we are ready to take our country back and save America! THE UPPER ROOM: Why 120 people in the painting? The number signifies the passing away of the age of the flesh and the beginning of the age of the Spirit. According to the Holy Bible, 120 were gathered in the upper room when the Holy Spirit came upon them. This is often referred to as the day of “Pentecost”, when Jesus ascended to heaven after defeating death and the father of lies. The Church was born in the upper room. The baptism of the Holy Spirit was to mark the birth of the infant Church; and for ten days this company were gathered in the place of united prayer, until the heavens were opened and they were all “filled with the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:4). During this time, Peter stood up in the company—there were about 120 of them in the room at the time—and said, “Friends, long ago the Holy Spirit spoke through David regarding Judas, who became the guide to those who arrested Jesus. That Scripture had to be fulfilled, and now has been.” (Acts 1:15-26). Yes, even Jesus had a Judas in his closest 12, so odds are there are at least 10 in this painting. Only God knows who they are. But I encourage you to explore each person’s bio before you pass judgment. Don’t trust what you have heard in the “fake news”. Look at the videos, and ask God for His wisdom and discernment. Just before he ascended to heaven, Jesus told his disciples to wait in Jerusalem until they received power from God. There were 120 people waiting. The Upper Room where Jesus appeared to His disciples is the same place where He washed the feet of His disciples, instituted the Eucharist, and gave the “Great co-mission” to go and preach the good news to all nations and people. After the Ascension, the Eleven “went up to the upper room” (Acts 1:13). There, the Holy Spirit descended in the form of tongues of fire on the day of Pentecost - giving birth to the first church. 120 is also interestingly found in Genesis 6:3, “Then the Lord said, ‘My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.’” Jesus taught that the Kingdom would start out small like a mustard seed and work invisibly like yeast. He also said that there would be unbelief even if someone rose from the dead. He also said that his disciples would do greater works then he did. (Matthew 13:31–33; Luke 16:19–31; John 14:12). 120 may seem like a small start, but the very first day of Pentecost 3000 more were added…and that number continues to grow around the world today. Similarly, the movement of truth and common sense, anti-globalism, anti-evil is growing here in America daily…and around the world. People are waking up to the deceptive “fake news” propaganda, and demanding a responsible, fair, just, and TRANSPARENT government. A government “by the people, FOR the people.” These 120 patriots in the “Upper room” of “One Nation Under God”, are representative of the birth of a movement in our great Nation BACK to God. There is so much biblical prophecy being fulfilled in these days. Many believe that we are in the end times…and the fourth quarter of that. After much hardship and a fierce battle, in the end times, Satan will be bound, and Jesus will return and reign for 1000 years as the Messianic King. His reign will be perfectly just and fair. (Revelation 20:1–10) So, what should we focus on if Jesus is returning soon? God has chosen to work through Jesus’ followers empowered by his Spirit to change the world by the message of the Gospel and the witness of godly lives. His word does NOT say to stay out of politics and avoid talking about Him (God). That is a lie from the pits of hell. Satan and his minions want us to be silent and afraid to share the truth and be bold in governance (which is Jesus). So be bold. Lead with faith, and seek GOD’S wisdom and discernment in ALL things. Live your life by the word of God. Act as if every word you speak and deed you do is being recorded by God…because it is. Yes, when we believe in Jesus and follow Him, all of our sins are forgiven…but when the Holy Spirit dwells with us, we no longer desire to sin against God. His greatest commandment is to “Love the Lord God with all your heart, mind, and soul”, and secondly, to “love your neighbor as yourself”. So go out, be fruitful, and multiply for the Kingdom of God is at hand!
