My husband and I went to the Republican watch party here in Colorado Springs last night. I realized as I was talking to the Lord that Christians, both Republican and Democrat were doing just what I was doing, praying for “our” candidate to win. I asked the Lord what He wanted and He said ” I want my Nation back”.
Our job as believers is to make sure that our agenda is really God’s agenda. We need to stay in agreement with Him at every turn. We may not understand why things happen but we do need to understand how very much the Lord loves us and is moving us toward His plan for our future.
Obviously my candidate did not win, but that did not change what the Lord had said to me before the polls even closed.
I am sharing with you some of what I have gleaned from what He said.
The Lord is Republican and Democrat. He is both and He is neither.
There is a plan and purpose that the Lord has created the United States to fulfill. If we are to possess our birthright as a nation then we must give our nation back to God. The time of compromising our values and ideals is quickly coming to an end. We must be careful to not fall into spiritual entitlement or worse still spiritual lethargy.
Republicans and Democrats are both needed and must find the common ground in the Lord to be able to move our nation forward.
Remember, we are one nation under GOD…..
