Remember that God is in control of everything
Well people, the election is over, but there are still those who won’t accept the fact that Donald J. Trump is our president; the one who God put in place!
Why don’t the people of the so-called “left,” the so-called “Hollywood elite,” just accept the fact? Why – because people don’t like change and don’t want someone to come into office and shake up their perfect life!
As the Bible says in John 3:19-21, men love darkness instead of light because their deeds are evil when you support the murder of unborn children (shame on you). They are a gift from God and what the Bible says about marriage among other things; not that I say these things, but God!
If you don’t like Donald Trump, move out of the country. Go somewhere to be ruled by a dictator, where your freedom is at stake. You don’t have to protest and destroy others’ property to do it.
I pray that God will give the president wisdom, knowledge, protection and guidance to lead this country and his administration to get this nation back on the right road with God’s help! This nation needs a shake-up, a great revival, to put God first on all things. At least President Trump acknowledges God! I believe that God has great plans for the United States.
Just like David the shepherd boy in the Bible, no one thought he could defeat the giant Goliath, but with God going before him, he killed Goliath with just his sling shot and a stone. What a great God!
There are somany other events are in the Bible about God going before his people in the line of battle and defeating the enemy. The greatest event of all was his son, Jesus Christ, coming as a baby and living his life on this earth for 33 years. He defeated death and Satan and will come again to execute his judgment and finally defeat evil. One thing about Jesus – his justice will be right!
Many people try to be stars in their world of entertainment only to find that their wealth and stardom is only temporary, as we have seen on the news of so many of their deaths, but God tells us that we can be eternal “stars” by being wise and righteous. All you have to do is look back throughout history and the events in God’s holy word; the Bible. How God is faithful, but how he also executes judgment on nations and people who don’t follow Him. He is long-suffering and full of mercy, grace and love, He is also a God of justice and will not let evil go on and also injustice.
People, we should pray for our president instead of looking at the “Hollywood elite” which is no better than you and I. Yes, the president isn’t perfect. Neither am I. Only Jesus is perfect. Look to Jesus. He is our only hope in this fallen world of sin! He is the answer to all life’s situations. He knows what is ahead. It is so great to know that God is in control. No matter how hopeless it seems, look up. Jesus will soon step out on the clouds and come back for his children.
God spoke to this world. God is merciful and gives people a chance to repent, but soon it will come to an end. All evil will be destroyed. This earth will be made new because it is slowly dying. His kingdom is coming. Do not repay evil with evil; do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath. “It is mine to avenge, I will repay,” said the Lord. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
So in closing, pray for our president, his family and his administration for God’s wisdom and God’s grace to be upon him and the knowledge and God’s guidance to lead this country; and to be humble and again let this nation “Be one nation under God.” God Bless!
