Looking Toward November 8 With Hope

Proverbs 21:1 The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; He turns it wherever He will.

As we look at the upcoming election and quite possibly get completely discouraged and hopeless, let us remember the truth of God’s Word.  Let us be forever hopeful remembering that yes, Hillary and Donald both have moral freedom, but the Lord turns and maneuvers their actions and decisions wherever He wills.  No matter how ridiculous, immoral, tyrannical, liberal or conservative our president is let us rest comfortably on the truth that our sovereign God uses whomever leads the USA and any other nation for HIS own purpose in HIS own way.  Let us pray that the Lord will give us a president that we do not deserve and rest in His perfection plan and decision that will be revealed to us on November 8.

Father God, let us rest completely in You as our God who directs presidents and kings throughout this world for Your purpose and plan.  Give us that level of trust that we can confidently say with utmost hope, “Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”  Let us as Your followers rest peacefully in Your decision as You move kings in their perspective office.  Remind us that we can only do this as we rest in what Your Son Jesus has accomplished for us on the cross, complete redemption from this temporary life on Earth.  In Jesus name!
