100 Steps To Eternity: Prophetic Relevance Of The Geography Of The United States By Terri Emmett
The most important element that distinguishes the beauty of America from the beauty of many other countries is the fact that AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL is one nation “UNDER GOD.” All nations each have their own physical elements of beauty, but America also shines with a “spiritual” beauty by its public proclamations among the world that we are one nation “Under God,” and that it is “In God We Trust.” These proclamations of faith set an example to the rest of the world and they, alone, set our nation apart from most other nations of the world.
Mt. McKinley is the highest peak in the United States. It’s gorgeously snow covered apparel mysteriously surrounded by the Northern Lights, the Aurora Borealis, set in the land of the Midnight sun, identically matches the description of the glorified Christ in Revelation 1:13-14, the great and high Summit of wisdom and understanding, who, surrounded by the light of truth, now majestically stands adorned in His glorious state in glistening white raiment, never to die again.
The area of lowest altitude in the United States is Death Valley, California, a barren and dry section of land surrounded by oppressive heat, strategically located at the edge of the nation’s “Pleasure Capital,” by man’s description, holding a significance all its own.
The fertile plains of the nation, majestic brooks and gorgeous waterfalls set among lush forests, tell their story through the abundance of their resources, throughout the area known as the “Bible Belt”.
The great Niagara Falls spectacle with its thundering roar of waters and its spectacular rainbows adds further magnificence to this grand display of God’s power and might.
Deep caves, rolling hills and towering bluffs are of well-calculated geographical relevance with each valley, hill and stream strategically figured in God’s story – how it has and will yet play its part in bringing God’s plan to pass.
The Black Hills and bizarre Badlands provide an awesome beauty amidst the desolate terrain. Long, dry stretches of desert provide hints to understanding the vital significance in the deliberate layout of the “wild” western states in comparison to the “Bible Belt” of the Midwest – the lush, green corn belt set within the heartland of the nation.
