A new president

As America goes out and votes today and this great Nation appoints it's next president let us not forget our role and duty as citizens and Christians. We are to vote!! We are to vote not on popularity or age, but we are to vote sensibly and practically. Ask a few questions to yourself; who has more experience?? Who upholds biblical values like anti-abortion and sacred marriage? Who has a better track record? Who will do better for our countries morality?(Remember, a man's decisions from his past are a good indicator of his decisions in the future.)

You must understand that all pre-election campaigning is, is smoke and mirrors. All candidates will tell us what we want to hear; after all they are looking for our vote. Very seldom do the promises of a campaign runner come to fruition; they all end up being wishful thinking, or just good ideas at the time. I am not sayin, that ALL they say are lies, I am pushing the point though that they ARE looking for your vote.

I do thank God though that our hands as believers are not tied behind our back. When an authority rises up we are called to pray!! "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, (I Timothy 2:1-3)

We are to pray, regardless of who gets voted in. Once what's done get's done we can do nothing else but call to God for mercy and ask Him to give our new president wisdom to make right decisions. Pray that the fear of God mark His life, and that he surround himself with godly advisors. We are to pray and believe that God will answer our prayers.


2 Chronicles 7:14 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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

God bless America
