When the Government is in Turmoil..

Remember it is ran by man.

Remember it puts its confidence in man.

Remember it looks to self rather than Christ.

Remember to not fear, though their decisions affect us, God is still and will always be in control.

Remember to pray.

Remember to look to Christ.

Remember to trust in God's promises.

Remember to not slander, just because they slander.

Remember to pray more for their souls to be saved.

Remember that Christ is our leader, our King, our Protector, our Financial provider, our Hope, our Daily Bread.

And finally, remember that Christ is all-knowing, all-seeing, all-sufficient, all-powerful, and is EVERYWHERE.

He knows every thought of the President, He knows every decision he will make. He knows who he serves. He knows every thought of every individual that makes up our Government. He knows their hearts, their every move, their every motive, everything.

Christ knows His children. He knows what we need, what we fear, what we think, what's in our hearts, our motives, etc. And He will always take care of us.

Remember what Paul told Timothy, well the same applies to us today, regardless of how we feel. Let's be obedient.

"I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth.  For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message God gave to the world at just the right time." 1 Timothy 2:1-6
