Understanding Nationhood Series 16.
Nations Without God.
The second word that defines nations or individuals who are far from God is ALIEN. The word alien is taking from a Greek word appolotrios it means to alienate, estrange, to be shut out from one's fellowship and intimacy. To expand this idea, legendary apostle Paul also used the allotrios; to belong to another, foreign, strange, not of one's family, alien, an enemy.
The implication is, when a nation is not in sync with God they become strangers to God. Amazingly, because man is designed to worship and consequently must be involved in some form of worship, man automatically finds something to submit or give himself absolutely to. Because of man's new found love or object of worship...worshipping created things instead of the creator, they automatically detach themselves from God.These experiences automatically pitch man or nations against God.
As a matter of fact, under these circumstances these nations estrange, separate and disconnect themselves from whatever form of grace and blessings that come from God. God sees them as enemies, foreigners and strangers in the Commonwealth of God.
Are we on God's side as a nation or are we on our own? The answer to this question explains where we are today as a nation. We can change the destiny of a nation by changing the focus of worship.
