We're a week away from what has been dubbed one of the most important
elections in the history of the U.S.A. While that may be true, it's my
belief that every election is critical and potentially a turning point. It's
our involvement that can make the difference.
Today, I'm beginning a countdown to Election Day next Tuesday. Each day I'd
like for us to ask ourselves a question, consider a Scripture (or two), and
then say a prayer.
Question:
If you're going to be my President, I need to know sir, will you care for
the poor and at the same time condemn laziness?
Scriptures:
"Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and
needy" (Pro. 31:9).
"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would
not work, neither should he eat" (2 Thes. 3:10).
Prayer:
Father, thank you for allowing us to live in this great nation. In just a
few days, we'll be voting on who we believe will be the best leader for our
country. Father, give us wisdom to elect someone who will care for people
who are struggling and at the same time condemn the laziness of those who
will not work. Father we know that there are folks who want to work, and can
work if given the chance, and Father we pray that doors of opportunity will
open to those who are diligently searching for employment. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
