The Bible Contains Wisdom for Nations, Not Merely for Individuals. Esther 8:11.

Guess what the pagan king gave the Jews after Haman was killed and his conspiracy foiled?

The king’s edict granted the Jews in every city the right to assemble and protect themselves; to destroy, kill and annihilate the armed men of any nationality or province who might attack them and their women and children, and to plunder the property of their enemies. Esther 8:11.

The king gave the Jews the right to assemble and the right to defend themselves. Don’t these sound like two key rights we have in the USA? See how God led our founding fathers to establish here many things that come from the Bible: freedom of religion, freedom of speech and press, freedom of assembly (in contrast to China, where Christians assemble in the woods at night so they can’t be caught and if they are, they can’t be tortured into turning in others) and the right to keep and bear arms. God put everything we need in the Bible, not only for your personal life, but for the nation, the law, the government. Praise Him.

Dad's Daily Devotional began as text messages to my family. I wanted my teenagers to know their father was reading the Bible. But they were at school by then. Initially, I sent them a favorite verse or an insight based on what I read each day. That grew into drafting a devotional readng which I would send them via text. I work as an attorney and an adjunct professor, and recently wrote a book called HOW TO MAKE A'S.
