#95 - One Nation Under God

Buenos dias! Did ya vote yet?? Gotta stay on ya'll about this voting thing! It's important!


OK.... let's get going...
Proverbs 2:2,6,7,21 - Yes, if you cry out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, or the Lord gives skillful and godly Wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. He hides away sound and godly Wisdom and stores it for the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with Him); He is a shield to those who walk uprightly and in integrity...For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the men of integrity, blameless and complete [in God's sight], shall remain in it...




Psalm 2:10-11 - Therefore, you kings, be wisebe warned, you rulers of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear and celebrate his rule with trembling. 
Proverbs 31:23 - Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
How appropriate that this subject would be the devotion for today. Raise YOUR Voice! 

Aside from some of the Voter Resources that are available, Psalm 2:10-11 gets pretty direct when talking about those in authority, specifically "rulers". It even throws out a "WARNING" to them. Psalm 2 talks about "kings" we could also include in there
Governors, House Representatives, Secretary, Treasurer, Vice President, President, Judges, etc, etc. Those running for a PUBLIC office. Back in the day of the Bible was written, public office was the KING. The Bible is specifically breaking down and WARNING the RULERS of the earth, those who make decisions for the people to SERVE THE LORD.

SO..... what is an EASY PREREQUISITE for you to know when you are voting?? Does this person SERVE THE LORD? Are they a BORN-AGAIN believer?? For us to stay "One Nation Under God", we need to VOTE people into office who are God-Fearing Believers. Who honor the Lord. We need to dig in and find out if they are a CHRISTIAN. And from there, how do their beliefs line up with the WORD OF GOD? Opinion does not matter, does their position on a subject line up with the Word or does it go against the Word? Brother and sister, the color of their skin is NOT the most important thing. Black, white or green, this does not matter. Are they a God-fearing Born-Again Believer. Is GOD, the ONE TRUE GOD, who they answer to? And as Christians, we know that the ONLY way to the ONE TRUE GOD is through his son Jesus. If they don't believe that, mark them OFF your ballot.

Truth. Truth. Truth. Vote with the WORD of God. Study those who you are voting for. Where do they stand? And, where do YOU stand? Do your beliefs line up with the WORD or do they line up with "Popular Opinion"?

To keep this Nation, "ONE NATION UNDER GOD", we need to vote for God-Fearing Men & Women of GOD!

November 2nd, 2010. Vote.
