America: A Nation in Prophecy?

[Steve Myers] For most Americans, the 4th of July means fireworks, flags, and freedom. But let’s be honest—this isn’t just about one day on the calendar. When you talk about “freedom,” you’ve got to ask: What kind of freedom are you really celebrating?

America was built on values like liberty, justice, and moral responsibility. But let’s be real—something feels off.

You see the division. The violence. The broken trust in leadership. It leaves you wondering: Where is God in all of this?

Scripture makes it clear—turning away from God has consequences. He gave this warning: “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God . . . that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you.” (Deuteronomy 28:15)

This isn’t just ancient history. It’s relevant right now. Want to know how this prophecy connects to today?” Check out the free Bible study aid: United States and Britain in Bible Prophecy at UCG.org.

Great nations don’t usually fall because of enemies on the outside. History—and prophecy—show they collapse from within, starting with moral failure long before any enemy even arrives.

God said, “I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.” In other words, when a nation turns from God, He removes stability—even good leadership. (Isaiah 3:4) Sound familiar?

And the turmoil isn’t just here. Look at the Middle East—it’s a major flashpoint. Bible prophecy shows it’s only going to intensify in the end times.

But this isn’t just about warnings— prophecy also offers hope.

God promises: “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face . . . I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).

God hasn’t given up on your nation. More importantly—He hasn’t given up on you. But time is short. And the change doesn’t start somewhere else—it starts with you. 
 

So the real question is: Will you just wave the flag . . . or will you turn to God?

Jesus said: “If the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).

That’s the freedom you were made for. Not a temporary fix—but lasting truth. The kind that prepares you for what’s coming—because He’s returning. And prophecy is moving fast.

Real freedom—it doesn’t come from politics or slogans. It comes from knowing God, following His ways, and focusing your life on His Kingdom.

Don’t wait. Now’s the time. Choose spiritual freedom.
