HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, God keeps His promises, and the Lord your God is God
and is faithful to keep His promises for all time to come; and
WHEREAS, The promises of God are stated thusly in the Gospel
of John: "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand"; and
WHEREAS, God has given to us His great and precious promises
of love, hope, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
wisdom, and strength to sustain us through the life He has given us;
and
WHEREAS, God gives power to the weak, and to those who have no
might, He increases strength; and
WHEREAS, Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid because
of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you
nor forsake you; and
WHEREAS, The promise of God is His word, which is revelation
from Him, showing the way of Salvation, through His Son, Jesus
Christ, the Truth and Life, and encouraging the lives of many; and
WHEREAS, The Declaration of Independence clearly reveals the
fact that America was founded upon Biblical principles and
Christian values; the Bible had great influence on the founding of
our great nation; and
WHEREAS, God promises to heal our land according to
2 Chronicles 7:14: "If My people who are called by My name will
humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their
wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and forgive their sin and
heal their land"; now, therefore, be it
