In Light of Today’s Political Environment
God Remains Sovereign!
Sovereign means supreme; preeminent; indisputable. It also means greatest in degree; utmost or extreme. Therefore, God is supreme; preeminent; indisputable; greatest in degree and utmost. He is above all of the current affairs of man. I am reminded of Daniel 2:20b-22;
“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
to whom belong wisdom and might.
21 He changes times and seasons;
He removes kings and sets up kings;
to whom belong wisdom and might.
21 He changes times and seasons;
He removes kings and sets up kings;
He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding;
22 He reveals deep and hidden things;
He knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with Him.”
22 He reveals deep and hidden things;
He knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with Him.”
God alone knows the outcome of our elections and He has a purpose in it. I may not like the choices set before me but as a believer, it is my duty, privilege, and honor to cast my vote. God knows my future and I know that this is not my home. At the appointed time, I will go to be with Him in heaven but for now, I am giving a task to be His ambassador to take forth the message of reconciliation. His grace is enough for me. Yet, I too often forget and begin to fret. Reading my Bible and taking time to spend time with God, He so easily reminds me that HE is in control.

Tweet ThisMy Prayer: Dear Sovereign Lord, You have the power to remove kings and set up kings. You are in control and I am to trust You in whatever comes my way. You alone know what the future holds and I am to be secure in that knowledge. Forgive me, Father, when I question You. I ask for wisdom to understand what is taking place. Amen.
