It is the Duty of all Nations to Acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God, to Obey His Will, be Grateful to Him, and Humbly ask His Protection

From July 3, 2011 -- Deuteronomy 28:1, "Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth."
