Today’s
Thought “Support Onto A Monarch” G.
Ward
Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes all things to work together for
good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His
purpose.
While believers are called to pray for leaders (spiritually
and politically), theirs must be preeminently faithful to the King of every
king. As a pastor I’m often asked by congregants where I stand on politics to
which my response always shares that true resolve for every matter is solely
found in Jesus. HE can take man’s impropriety, transposing evil therein to serve
this present age. Moreover and altogether what did HE do? Did HE talk God and
country? Did HE campaign for the emperor because that same emperor supported
two issues relative to His Father’s agenda? You, human being, don’t have to awaken
heaven to sufferings in earth, but must awake to His rule while having breath!
Divisiveness then, remains divisiveness now and the cure is still the same and
ambivalence to completely adjust to the Master’s way (particularly in that
regard) reveals a lack of trust in His Sufficiency (incidentally, that’s called
blatant sin). To know my politics AND/ALONG with my Redeemer never witnesses to
a world needing Jesus’ forgiveness.
