Jamaica has more churches per capita than any other nation in the world so why is it not blessed when the Bible says in Psalm 33:12, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord!"
Why does it have such a poor economy when the Bible says in Deuteronomy 28:11 - 15 -"The Lord shall make you have a surplus of prosperity, through the fruit of your body, of your livestock, and of your ground, in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you.
The Lord shall open to you His good treasury, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.
And the Lord shall make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God.
And you shall not turn aside from any of the words of God, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments and His statutes....then many, many curses shall come upon you and overtake you!!!
I believe that Jamaica will never prosper as a nation as long as its peoples' faith in Jesus is just a lip service faith.
