You ever wonder why the US seems to be under condemnation and is suffering through some of the most difficult times?
Let the words of the prophet, Isaiah, give you a taste of how God deals with the sins of nations.
sa 3:16 Moreover Jehovah said, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet;
Isa 3:17 therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and Jehovah will lay bare their secret parts.
Isa 3:18 In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of their anklets, and the cauls, and the crescents;
Isa 3:19 the pendants, and the bracelets, and the mufflers;
Isa 3:20 the headtires, and the ankle chains, and the sashes, and the perfume-boxes, and the amulets;
Isa 3:21 the rings, and the nose-jewels;
Isa 3:22 the festival robes, and the mantles, and the shawls, and the satchels;
Isa 3:23 the hand-mirrors, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the veils.
Isa 3:24 And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet spices there shall be rottenness; and instead of a girdle, a rope; and instead of well set hair, baldness; and instead of a robe, a girding of sackcloth; branding instead of beauty.
Isa 3:25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
Isa 3:26 And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall be desolate and sit upon the ground.
This is how God removes the dross from his people. Who he blesses, he protects. But only a remnant.
Perhaps you are attempting to fight against the judgements of God against a wayward nation. Have you considered this?
