God Shed His Grace on America
Christie’s Auction House seems to be the model for our presidential election process. The voters are the auctioneer wanting to get all that is possible. The candidates are the bidders, each trying to top the other by offering more for the office. With each passing day the offers get higher. There is no way any candidate can provide all that is promised. No way.
November 5, 2024 is sure to be one of the most meaningful days in our nation’s history. Regardless of who wins there is sure to be a dramatic change.
One, Trump if elected will undertake the monolithic change of calling us back from the brink of an implosion.
The other, Harris is sure to lead us dramatically into the maze of leftist socialist decline.
Pray for our Lord to have at His disposal a new president open to His leadership. One who may not adhere to the faith as nearly as could be hoped, but one who is disposed to govern in such a way as to advance freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and the right of gun ownership.
Consider it is the duty of nations as well as men, to own their dependent upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and the recognition that the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
That did not come from a preacher, but a president. Appropriately quotation marks should be put around that statement and justifiably attributed to a president, President Abraham Lincoln. It is an extract from his March 30, 1863 “Proclamation Appointing a National Fast Day.”
Lincoln with his human frailties, like all of us, realized what some today try desperately to deny, there is a spiritual component to life. Until it is properly addressed and dealt with even the utopia promised by candidates would be a Gehenna.
We need a good president to lead us, but no president can do for us what is needed. Government can’t, only God can. The hearts of the people need changing in order for the nation to be changed.
Turn us again Lord, turn us again.
The days are few and the need for God’s people to pray is intensified thereby.
Neither candidate embodies biblical faith, but one mocks it, Harris, and the other, Trump is open to it and an ally of it. You chose which is more open to God.
