The Hearts of Kings

Posted by Dan C. on

Psalm 21:1 tells us:

 “The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will.”

This applies to President Elect Trump, as well as every “king” on the planet. It would have applied to Hillary Clinton had she prevailed in the election. 

God is sovereign over all nations. Period. End of story.

Maybe it’s time to stop arguing, fighting, protesting, sniveling, crying, you name it. Time to personally get right with God and pray for the man, his leadership, and the country.

If you’re not sure what it means to ‘personally’ get right with God, it’s not rocket science. It means to realize you are a sinner, deserving of the just wrath of God because of that sin, repent of your sin (turn away from it) and believe that Christ died for your sin and bore the Holy wrath you (we all) richly deserve. 

Getting right with God is the starting point for dumping all the gloating on one side and all the protesting an sniveling on the other side. It’s also the starting point for praying effectually for Donald Trump and the future of our nation.

Let’s shut up and pray. . .

What if?

What if this election is about God punishing a nation for her many sins, no matter who wins on election day? What will all of the ‘national idolaters’ do then? Why do so many, including Christians, seem to think one candidate will destroy the US and the other one will ‘save’ her? After all, the good old US Of A has to be read INTO scripture, a really bad hermeneutic. Jesus Christ came, bled and died for the sins of God’s people, and only had one ‘chosen’ nation – the one through whom the Messiah came.

Regardless of who wins the election, we who profess Christ have ONE mission – to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost and dying all around us! I would add that the proclamation of the TRUE gospel needs to go forth INSIDE a whole lot of ‘church’ doors where thousands upon thousands of the deceived think Christ died for their ‘best lives now’. My friends, that is a lie from the pit of Hell.

Dear saint, are you mentally and spiritually prepared for your beloved nation to be tossed intomthe dustbin of history? ARE you? Are you ready to carry out your mission if things get really bad for us. ARE you? Or are we just going to keep fighting the wrong battle (for our ‘rights’) instead of the REAL battle for the souls of men.

I can’t help but think about U.S. Airborne jump commands. About 6 minutes out from the drop zone, the first one was shouted loudly (it’s noisy inside a C-130). GET READY!!!!!!

I don’t claim to be any kind of ‘prophet’, like many these days, but considering all the ‘noise’ these days, the reminiscing seems appropriate.

Be ready my friends – no matter the outcome. Our mission has NEVER changed!
