Hello Everyone,
Today marks another changing of the guard in Washington, D.C. We now have a new president and while there are many in this country that are excited about his arrival, there are many that are really upset about his arrival. Which group are you? Well regardless of which one, let me ask you this? Why are you excited or upset. The answer is that we all need a deeper revelation that God is our source. If God is truly your source, then it won't matter who's in leadership because you put your trust in Him not in him (or almost her).
See one of the problems with putting our trust in a man instead of God is we can be disappointed in them. Where God has always performed what he said he would perform. His record is perfect. Do you need peace in your life? Do you need prosperity? Do you need healing? Do you need forgiveness? Do you need redemption? No man can provide any of these but with God all things are possible.
Another problem is that as we begin to look to these men and women of our government as our source, many times we loose sight of love. Did you know that the Bible says God is love? Let me put that in a mathematical equation for you. God = Love. To put it another way, Love = God. You can't walk in true love without walking in true God and you can't walk in true love without walking in true God. But many of the feelings I see and hear about politicians these days are fear, hate, concern, worry, and the list goes on.
Guess what. Those things aren't pure, lovely, just or of a good report and we shouldn't think on them. I'm not saying that we shouldn't pay attention to what our leaders are doing and have an opinion but when hate guides your actions, you have the violent protests we are seeing today. We should pray for our leaders regardless of whether or not we voted for them.
So take heart. If you didn't vote for our president, remember that God loves you and He's still in control. If you did vote for our president, remember that He's not God. God is God and he loves you.
