The Long Game

To keep and bear arms is a right in this nation, yet eager are some to abolish this freedom from the list of Constitutionally protected amendments, as an unarmed citizenry poses less of a threat to the rule of a centralized government. And so, as if being attacked with a chisel there has been a chipping away at this amendment, with bans having been intentionally added to make owning a gun a more difficult process. 

Those who assert their right to be armed are demonized, for indeed has an aggressive campaign been launched, meant to sway public opinion in such a way that the average American will cave to societal pressure and voluntarily surrender this liberty without any form of retaliation.

However, should the American people give up this right, it won’t take long before their Constitution vanishes from sight, as what should have been highly valued was then left unprotected. And while I do not advocate for violence, still, a people should have the right to defend themselves from an attack, and not solely rely upon the government to keep them safe. For it is this exact mindset of dependency that those bureaucrats who ardently oppose the 2nd amendment are striving to create.

Though in the current generation of Americans there exists those who are still loyal to God and country, amongst the youth, however, this patriotic attitude is only held in a few, as too many have already embraced anti-American views. As such, these won’t have any qualms supporting efforts that would essentially nullify the Constitution. For in ignorance do the youth in this nation stand, as freedom was not something they had to earn, and therefore, its true significance is lost upon them. How quickly, then, would freedom become a thing of the past if the prevailing ideologies found in this younger generation are allowed to remain. For through them all that would then be lost would never again be regained.

And so it is that a two pronged assault must commence, where My warriors contend not only against the powers that are attacking the 2nd amendment, but also that the perception of America shifts amongst the younger generations; driving out the spirit of anger from amongst them.

Ah, then, it’s not just enough to pray that the efforts of those currently leading the charge in favor of more restrictive gun control measures are halted, but that the lies accepted by the youth in this nation about the 2nd amendment, and the Constitution overall, are broken off. For it is not only for this present day that you must do battle, but also for the future, in order that your children’s-children’s children are still found standing as free Americans.

Therefore, take up your shield and lay hold of your sword, then step onto this battlefield! For the enemy is already deeply entrenched upon this ground. To drive him out will take a continued effort, as it is according to “the long game” that he has set his lines. Do not be shortsighted in your warfare, only seeking peace in your time, but, instead, extend the length of your prayers to include those who shall come after you. Cover their days now so that America continues to be a free and prosperous nation for many generations to come.

“Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts. They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty and I will meditate on your wonderful works” Psalm 145:3-5
