TWO TIMES IN JEREMIAH THE SCRIPTURE DECLARES, "I WILL APPOINT THE LEADER OF MY CHOICE" (Jer. 49:19; 50:44).
AND DANIEL 2:21 SAYS, "HE CONTROLS THE COURSE OF WORLD EVENTS; HE REMOVES KINGS AND SETS UP OTHER KINGS."
THESE STATEMENTS ARE BOTH REASSURING AND FRIGHTENING.
THOSE OF US WHO ARE BELIEVERS ARE COMFORTED BY THE THOUGHT THAT GOD IS RUNNING PLANET EARTH---AND EVEN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
OUR FAITH IS NOT IN POLITICAL RULERS OR IN THE POLITICAL SYSTEM. OUR FAITH IS BASED ON THE SOLID ROCK, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST! HE CONTINUES TO RULE IN THE AFFAIRS OF MEN.
THANK GOD THAT AT A TIME LIKE THIS WE HAVE HIM AS AN ANCHOR OF THE SOUL!
Daniel lived under wicked governments, and yet he prospered. This is hope for all of us who love God. The government may be wicked and corrupt, but God is still able to bless his people.
"So Daniel prospered during the reign of Darius and Cyrus the Persian" (Daniel 6:28).
BUT FOR THOSE WHO REALLY KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE SCRIPTURES, IT IS FRIGHTENING THAT OBAMA WAS ELECTED. WE KNOW THAT GOD GIVES A NATION WHAT IT DESERVES. AND, NATIONALLY, OUR SINS ARE PILED AS HIGH AS HEAVEN.
OUR SINS HAVE NOT GONE UN-NOTICED TO GOD.
SOME PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT THE U.S. IS BABYLON, OR A TYPE AND SHADOW OF THE FINAL BABYLON. THIS IS FRIGHTENING STUFF. GOD'S PEOPLE ARE TOLD REPEATEDLY TO FLEE BABYLON LEST WE SUFFER IN HER JUDGMENT.
THERE ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS WHO ARE ACTUALLY PERMANENTLY MOVING OUT OF THE UNITED STATES.
I'M NOT CONVINCED THAT GOD IS SAYING TO ME, "LEAVE THE U.S." . . . YET!
BUT IF WE HAVE EVER EARNESTLY LOOKED TO HIM FOR DIRECTION IT IS AT THIS HOUR. MANY MILLIONS OF GOOD AMERICANS ARE IN MOURNING. MANY OF MY FRIENDS SPENT THE NIGHT OF NOVEMBER 6TH WEEPING AND PRAYING. THEY WERE ALMOST BEWILDERED AND FELT DESPAIR OVERTAKING THEIR SOULS.
AT MY AGE I'M MUCH MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUTURE OF MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN, THAN ABOUT MYSELF.
IF OBAMA AND HIS WICKED CRONIES IN THE WHITE HOUSE CONTINUE TO DO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE DURING THESE PAST FOUR YEARS . . . OUR NATION IS DOOMED.
WHAT CONCERNS ME MOST IS THE FACT THAT HE IS WEAKENING OUR MILITARY.
AND, OF COURSE, SINCE HE HAS HAD ABSOLUTELY NO EXPERIENCE RUNNING ANYTHING, OUR ECONOMY WILL SOON BE IN THE TANK AND WE WILL BE RATED AS A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY.
HIS SOLUTION IS TO PRINT MORE MONEY. THE RESULT WILL BE THAT THE DOLLARS YOU HAVE SAVED WILL BE WORTH LESS AND LESS.
TRY TO IMAGINE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!
PERSONALLY, I BELIEVE THAT THE GOAL OF THIS PRESENT ADMINISTRATION IS TO DESTROY OUR NATION.
BUT IT IS NOT TOO LATE!
AS WE CRY OUT TO GOD OUR PRAYERS ARE HEARD ON HIGH. HE NOT ONLY PUTS LEADERS IN . . . HE TAKES THEM OUT.
OUR NATION CAN STILL BE SAVED.
"IT IS GOD ALONE WHO JUDGES; HE DECIDES WHO WILL RISE AND WHO WILL FALL" (PS. 75:7).
"HE WILL STRIKE DOWN MANY KINGS WHEN HIS ANGER ERUPTS" (PS. 110:5).
"THEIR LEADERS WILL BE KILLED BY THEIR ENEMIES" (Hosea 7:16).
A PROPHET FACES HOSTILITY EVEN IN THE HOUSE OF GOD" (Hosea 9:8).
