Isaiah 28: 5-6: In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, to the residue of His people. And for a spirit of judgment to him that sits in judgment and for strength to them that turn the battle at the gate.
November 11, 1918 was the end of World War I. Woodrow Wilson made this proclamation on November 11, 1919:
“A year ago today our enemies laid down their arms in accordance with an armistice which rendered them impotent to renew hostilities, and gave to the world an assured opportunity to reconstruct its shattered order and to work out in peace a new and just set of international relations. The soldiers and people of the European Allies had fought and endured for more than four years to uphold the barrier of civilization against the aggressions of armed force. We ourselves had been in the conflict something more than a year and a half.
With splendid forgetfulness of mere personal concerns, we remodeled our industries, concentrated our financial resources, increased our agricultural output, and assembled a great army, so that at the last our power was a decisive factor in the victory. We were able to bring the vast resources, material and moral, of a great and free people to the assistance of our associates in Europe who had suffered and sacrificed without limit in the cause for which we fought.
