God’s Instructions to a New Nation (Bible Verses That Made America) Day 5 of 5
From Bible Verses That Made America by Robert Morgan December 11, 1783 In his book Reading the Bible with the Founding Fathers, Daniel L. Dreisbach observes that the leaders of the American Revolution repeatedly referred to Micah 6:8. “The literature of the founding era has numerous references and allusions to this biblical text,” he wrote. This includes John Winthrop, John Adams quoted it frequently, and George Washington. It was also a key text used by George Duffield, a Presbyterian minister in Philadelphia who served as chaplain of the Continental Congress. Duffield’s story is interesting. He was appointed pastor of the Pine Street Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia in 1771, but when he arrived at his church on his first Sunday the door had been locked by a group opposed to his appointment. His supporters pushed him into the sanctuary through an open window, and thus he began his ministry. The Colonies were in turmoil, trying to decide whether to sever their ties with England, and Duffield became a vocal advocate for independence. So many of the Founding Fathers crowded into his pews that Pine Street became known as the Church of the Patriots. During the Revolutionary War, the British put a price on Duffield’s head, and when Philadelphia was occupied, his church was converted into a hospital and the pews were burned to keep the wounded British soldiers warm. Duffield put his gifts to work as chaplain of the Continental Congress and chaplain of the Pennsylvania regiment. He also counseled and comforted General George Washington at Valley Forge. After the War was won and peace established, Congress appointed December 11, 1783, as a Day of Thanksgiving, and Duffield gave a powerful sermon praising God for His providence: Who indeed hath heard such a thing? Who, but a few years back, would have believed the report, had a prophet himself declared it? . . . Who since time began, hath seen such events take place so soon? The earth has indeed brought forth, as in a day. A nation has indeed been born, as at once. . . . Let us look back, on what God hath done; and contemplate the prospect He opens before us. Then, like so many other early American preachers, he referenced Micah 6:8 and reminded us of our greatest obligations as citizens of a great nation and as followers of God: Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? It is, that we love the Lord our God, to walk in his ways, and keep his commandments, to observe his statutes and his judgments. That a sacred regard be maintained to righteousness and truth. That we do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God. Then shall God delight to dwell amongst us. And these United States shall long remain, a great, a glorious, and a happy people. Which may God, of his infinite mercy, grant. Amen.[1] To Duffield, Micah 6:8 represented God’s instructions to the new nation. In a world adrift with moral confusion and ethical lapses, there’s no better instruction for any nation—or for any of us as individuals—than the proclamation of the prophet Micah. God isn’t as interested in our rituals as He is in our righteousness. “The Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8). If this plan encouraged you or deepened your appreciation for God’s Word in history, continue the journey with Robert J. Morgan’s book, 100 Bible Verses That Made America. Through compelling stories, historical insight, and biblical encouragement, you’ll discover how Scripture has influenced the heart of a nation and why it still matters now more than ever.

The Victory Sermon at Yorktown (Bible Verses That Made America) Day 4 of 5
From Bible Verses That Made America by Robert Morgan October 19, 1781 The Battle of Yorktown effectively ended the American Revolution. British General Charles Cornwallis, badly outnumbered and isolated, sent out a white flag and surrendered to George Washington. Israel Evans was there to preach a sermon of victory to the American forces. A native of Pennsylvania, Evans had served as a chaplain throughout the War. His sermons had strengthened George Washington at Valley Forge, and he was standing beside Washington at Yorktown when they were both nearly hit by a cannonball. On October 20, 1781, the day after the victorious battle, Evans preached to the euphoric troops from 1 Samuel 7:12, which is a quotation from the prophet Samuel after a battlefield victory over the Philistines. 1 Samuel 7:12 Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen and called its name Ebenezer; for he said, “Till now the Lord has helped us.” Samuel wanted to commemorate the victory, so he established a monument and called it Ebenezer, which meant, “Thus far has the Lord helped us.” “Praise the Lord, who hath redeemed us from our enemies, for His mercy endureth forever!” Evans shouted to the generals and all the troops gathered before him. He also reminded them of the twists of providence and the rather miraculous moments that had saved America from expected disaster. That the colonial army, ragtag and unproven and outmatched, should defeat the greatest military power in the world was a remarkable exhibition of providence, virtually unseen since the days of Samuel. Israel Evans’s sermon on October 20 looked backward at God’s providential hand over the course of the War. But later he preached another victory sermon in New York City, in which he looked ahead and painted a picture of what America could be. His words were almost prophetic, and they picture America as she should be. The great Continent of America . . . is now free and independent! The blood and treasure of the sons of freedom have purchased these privileges.. . . Oh, blessed day which brings us to the possession of all we have been contending for and enables us to erect the standard of liberty and glory upon one of the four great divisions of earth! Hail auspicious morning of the rising empire. Hail arts and sciences, America is the new theatre of your improvements. . . . Commerce and trade shall spread their sails and waft the riches of distant lands to this great continent. Now, without fear of an insulting enemy, the industrious husbandman shall sow his enlarged fields and reap his rich and joyful harvests. Here the oppressed shall find a secure retreat from all the poverty and misery of merciless tyranny. Religion and learning shall raise their drooping heads and flourish again. Now shall the brave soldier claim the honor of being a free and independent citizen of the United States of America. The blessed soil of independence shall strive to reward him for his persevering valor. . . . May peace and love and human affection be once more planted in the human mind, and there grow and flourish till time shall be no more.[1] The Revolutionary leaders of America understood the meaning of Ebenezer— hitherto has the Lord helped us! There wasn’t a better word in the dictionary to describe their feelings on that day of final victory. And those among them who understood the role of providence knew that the God who had helped them thus far was needed now more than ever for the future. We all have Ebenezer moments in our lives. Looking back, we can see God’s help; and looking forward we can see God’s hand. Hitherto has the Lord helped us.___________[1] John Calvin Thorne, A Monograph of the Rev. Israel Evans (monograph, Sixtieth Annual Meeting of the Concord Congregational Union, October 20, 1902), 12.

The Fog Of War (Bible Verses That Made America) Day 3 of 5
From Bible Verses That Made America by Robert Morgan August 29, 1776 After their humiliation in Boston, the British fleet retired to Canada to lick their wounds and repair their vessels, then sailed straight for New York City. Washington also moved his troops to New York and began building siege works along Brooklyn Heights. When British ships, carrying thirty- two thousand troops, sailed into New York, their masts tilting with the tides, they looked like a forest of trees swaying in the wind. One observer said, “I thought all London was afloat.”[1] It was “the largest, most powerful force ever sent forth from Britain or any nation.”[2] Washington didn’t stand a chance. The British invasion began before dawn on Thursday, August 22, and within days the Revolutionary Army was trapped in Brooklyn across the East River from Manhattan and facing annihilation, which would have ended the War less than two months after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Late on the afternoon of August 29, Washington gave the order to retreat. The escape of nine thousand weary, rain-soaked troops across a mile-wide river was a desperate gamble. If the British caught on, the entire army would be decimated. Many of the men wrote their last wills and testaments on the spot. Just after nightfall the weakest warriors headed for the ferry landing as the retreat began. Immediately the weather became an ally. A strong northeast wind kept British ships from venturing into the area; yet at about 11:00 p.m. the wind died down, allowing Washington’s hastily assembled armada to cross the river without danger. Sympathetic New York sailors and fishermen mobilized, loading soldiers, horses, wagons, cannons, and all manner of equipment onto boats. Wagon wheels were wrapped in cloth to muffle their sounds on the cobblestones and not a word was spoken. The soldiers were told not to cough or make any sounds, and orders passed through the ranks by whispers. Campfires were kept burning to deceive the enemy. All night, boats silently ferried the army back and forth across the river, yet when the sun arose, a large portion of the army was still trapped. But a fog had rolled in during the night, thick as velvet, shielding the remaining evacuees, and it remained until the evacuation was completed. One soldier wrote: In this fearful dilemma fervent prayers went up to Him who alone could deliver. As if in answer to those prayers, when the night deepened, a dense fog came rolling in, and settled on land and water. . . .Under cover of this fog . . . Washington silently withdrew his entire army across to New York.[3] When the fog lifted, the Americans were gone. Historian David McCullough wrote, “The immediate reaction of the British was utter astonishment. That the rebel army had silently vanished in the night under their very noses was almost inconceivable.”[4] James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. The “fervent prayers” of the army were answered. Thirteen years later, General Washington took the presidential oath of office at the old Federal Building in lower Manhattan, just a few moments’ walk from the spot he had stepped ashore in 1776, divinely shielded by the fog of war. America was forged by men and women who believed in fervent prayer. That adjective has largely been lost to us today. It means earnest, warm, persistent prayer. Imagine the silent but strong prayers rising to heaven from Washington’s desperate army. The Lord responds to prayers like that, for the Bible says, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective”.__________[1] Thomas Balch, Papers Relating Chiefly to the Maryland Line During the Revolution (Philadelphia: Seventy-Six Society, 1857), 40.[2] David McCullough, 1776 (New York: Simon & Schuster, 2005), 148.[3] J.
