God uses the term "great" to describe an adulterous capital city, and by extension the rest of the unfaithful nation, ten times in the book of Revelation. Greatness, however, is not synonymous with goodness. America has grown great indeed and could very well be called the greatest nation. Yet, this is not a greatness of which to be proud. Despite the many blessings from God, including providence, a Judeo-Christian ethic in the Constitution, and abundant natural resources, the nation has failed to live up to its potential to glorify Him. Instead, this greatness becomes a liability as spiritual exhaustion sets in, marking a decline in the moral fabric of the society. Though wealth, power, resources, and technology have contributed to this greatness, it is all for naught unless the nation also becomes good.
