BELIEF AND POLITICS

The Political process is one of the evilest events on earth; because, most politicians will sell their souls, to win an election. They will change man laws to honor society’s wishes, instead of God’s will, to gain Vote from a certain group of people.  But, "Matthew 16:26 says, what shall a man profit, if he gains the world, and forfeit his soul.   It takes big shoulders to function politically correct; and most times in an election that means, “By any means necessary.” This is why it’s so important for us to vote for our candidates, “by the content of their character”; not for what they say or what they look like.   A person’s character cannot stay masked forever; listen to the Presidential debate, so we can get a glimpse of who they are.  “Luke 12:2 the time is coming when everything that is covered up will be revealed, and all that is secret will be made known.’

 Our responsibility as believers and leaders of our community; is to share the Word of God on all things, including social issues.  God is always in control, but we still have to do our part VOTE, for the lesser of the two evils.

Father, lead us in the way to go in this Presidential election; help us elect a candidate that fears You, and have a love for all people.  Lord, keep us dressed and ready for service; and keep our lamps burning, as we wait patiently for Your return.  Father, let Your Spirit and Words transform us; into the men and women, You designed us to be, not just religious fanatics.  Lord, thank You, for making us a new creation; please help us serve You with faith.  Father, help us become more Christ-like; and let us not worry about life: whether we will have enough food to eat or enough clothes to wear; but, keep us focused on Your face.  Father, Your Word tell us, that we are of one blood; so we are brothers and sisters; and if we do not see this way, we, do not know You.  Lord, keep a hedge of protection around our children; and punish those who harm them, especially for profit, hate, or fleshy desire.  Lord, let us not tempt our weaker brothers and sisters; by our unrighteous action, and keep us persistent in Your Word, in Jesus name, Amen.
