TURN TO GOD

This great nation, Jamaica land we love, was chosen by God as spiritual Jerusalem; to live the will of God in the earth for the rest of the world to observe and adopt. It is for this reason we were given such highly spiritual motto, anthem and pledge which should form the basis of our daily lifestyle as Jamaicans. God did not choose us because we are labelled the most religious country in the world, as this does not impress God. We agreed at independence that we would stand before God and all mankind, living every word of the pledge for the glory of Almighty God and thus allowing him to exalt us before the rest of the world.

God intended for us not just to be the sprint capital of the world but that we would be a great nation that truly loves God and worship him in spirit and in truth.
