How many of us have Godly Spiritual parents that mentor us and train us up in the way that we should go. Are we submitting to those Spiritual parents as a child should obey their parents. Authority comes when we submit to authority. Whether it be political authority or civil authority any other authority that God has put on this earth.
(Romans 13:1 KJV)
Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
I often disagree with our current administration on some ideas, but I must honor my governmental authorities. In God I cannot slander them or disrespect them as Romans 13:1 says. I must pray for our president and ask God that He guide Him into making wise choices for our nation.
1 Timothy 2:1-6 KJV I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; (2) For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. (3) For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; (4) Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. (5) For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; (6) Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
All of our wise choices come from wise decisions that spring from prayer. Prayers for each other and prayers corporately as a collective church. So as we go to our voting booths be they electronic or otherwise. We must engage in actively seeking to shape how the executive branch looks.
If our leaders are corrupt so goes our nation. If our leaders are a blessing our nation will be blessed.
