BARACK OBAMA!!!

Praise the Lord for our new president! Yes, praise the Lord. I didn’t vote for him only because I can’t support the Democrat’s stance on the killing of unborn children or legalizing gay marriage.  Otherwise, I do celebrate this historic moment. I look forward to the walls of racism continuing to fall in our nation. He is God’s man for this time and God will use him to fulfill His purposes.  Although, I didn’t support him with my vote, I will support him with my respect and prayers.

This, my friends, is our Biblical obligation. God expects us to submit, honor and pray for those in authority over us. It has nothing to do with whether we voted for them or agree with them. Consider Romans 13: 1-2. “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resists will bring judgment on themselves.”

1 Timothy 2: 1-2 says, “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.”

The burden and responsibility of our president is great. He will be faced with decisions that affect the moral fiber of our country, our safety and economic well being. We must pledge our prayers and support. He will need it. His family will need it and our great country will need it. Let’s join together and pray, God Bless Barack Obama and God Bless America.

With All of the Uncertainty…

Will it be Obama, Clinton or McCain? Will the feds drop the interest rates again? How long can the low rates continue? Will they do us any good? What’s going to happen to the housing market and home construction? Will the people getting foreclosed on get any help? What about this crazy stock market? How about health insurance? Who is going to pay for it and how much will it cost? Will the money ever run out? Will the government take our money and issue us all cards as a prelude to the mark of the beast? Will gas prices go any higher?

I wonder what North Korea and Iran are going to do with their nuclear weapons? What directions are they aimed? Where are the terrorists hiding and when will they strike again? Who is the Anti-Christ and where is he now? I wonder what buttons he’s pushing. What policies does he have to rescue us from all of the mess? Is he from Kansas? He’ll come and bring us all relief because he’ll have the answers. Who will vote for him? Who will follow him? Maybe, you. If you aren’t following Christ very closely now then the chances may be greater that you would follow the Anti-Christ.

Tornado season has officially kicked off in the mid-west. In one month, the hurricane season will kick off. Earthquakes happen anytime. Global warming, melting glaciers, heavy rains and flooding are problems. When’s the next Tsunami? Will it happen in Washington State? The experts said it could happen anytime and if it did Seattle would be under water. Could it be true?

What’s good to eat anymore? What causes cancer and what doesn’t? What lowers cholesterol? What raises metabolism and boosts energy? How am I going to die? When am I going to die? Only God knows. We definitely don’t have any of the answers but God does. The one thing that is for certain is that God is in charge. He is a sovereign God and is not surprised by any of our dilemmas, personally or globally. He really does have the whole world in His hands and that includes me and you. He is so involved in the affairs of this planet that He sees every little sparrow that falls to the ground. Please be assured of this, that if His eye is on the sparrow then you know He’s watching you. With all of the uncertainty, God is taking care of you.
