"Repentance, prayer, and following God’s word is the way out. I don’t hold my breath on America turning back to the one true God, but that doesn’t abdicate us from doing as He commands."
What's interesting about your last sentence is that He is not asking the entire country to turn - just His people. "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chron 14:7 Yes?
There's always a remnant. You are right about His people repenting and turning back to Him, I suppose I was alluding to my disbelief that enough people will turn to Him, become His people and repent. Help my unbelief!
"And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out[a] and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!”" -Mark 9:23-24
