Americans love to read their bible as speaking to them individually, while God is speaking through His word to nations corporately, not to people individually. We miss much of what God is saying to nations, when we only can hear the word of God as individuals.

Reading Proverbs 24 this morning yielded an understanding that we are witnessing nations returning to the Lord in ways we may not recognize. When we are taught that certain nations are bad and other nations are good, we can miss what God is doing with a nation.

Jonah saw Nineveh as enemies of God, so when God called the prophet to go and preach “repent” to that nation, he did not want to go. Once he finally went, that nation repented from the king to the animals and everyone in between. Jonah was upset about this repentance of a nation, because he had been taught the nation called Nineveh was evil, and they were before they repented.

America is only one of many nations that are repenting right now. It is happening nations around the world. Kings are repenting, Prime Ministers are repenting, Presidents are repenting and in their repentance is coming justice for those who are not repenting. Nations we have been taught are evil are repenting in ways we do not even understand, but that justice will reveal.

Proverbs 24 explains this repentance better than I can. “He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,” Peoples will curse him, nations will abhor him; But to those who rebuke the wicked will be delight, And a good blessing will come upon them.”

When a nation starts abhorring wickedness and rebukes it as well, blessings are coming on those nations. America is repenting, listen carefully, repentance is in the air and so are many other nations. Wickedness is being judged not declared acceptable anymore, this is what national repentance sounds like. And this repentance is bringing untold blessings to nations.

Habakkuk 1:5 “Look among the nations! Observe! Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days— You would not believe if you were told.”
