"Choose God's Indelible Word..."

 


With what has just been projected by the media that Joe Biden won the presidency, my heart doesn't break because my absolute source is in the providential hand of God. I have to contend to the Solid Rock I know and His name is Jesus... And I remain steadfast in praying, Thy will be done, Lord."

 Isaiah 55:8-9 says, " For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts...

My thoughts right now are much smaller than the mustard seed in comparison to what God is signaling us in the faith to do. I know that He wants us to be Still...; that even the result of the election doesn't translate the voice of truth, I know that God is in control. That even the physical realm of things suggests a sheer tragic loss in our minds, God's ultimate will and plan prevail. I just have to quiet my mind and continue to trust Him for in Him I truly live no matter who is in the White House.

My wishful thinking still reverberates that it would have been so right, good, and accepting if integrity and honesty, and conviction are unequivocally present in this election. Then and only then, I would be at peace and confident in the system.

I learned the hard facts of life in this election; people will tend to vote for someone who's calm and collected in the external without researching what his platform entails; people are running scared and fearful of the coronavirus without even considering that maybe and just maybe there's something about this virus that has a mind of its own given by those who will propagate their agendas-- the election. So, maybe now, the virus is relegated in the background, has taken its backseat, and will reappear when it's needed for justification. It's also disconcerting that a multitude of believers and Christians have compromised their stance on how to vote for the Kingdom and how many of them stayed home not exercising the right to vote which is a very crucial right, fought by our forefathers' sweat & blood. I'm gonna cry over this but deep inside me, I hear the wind of the Holy Spirit breathing in my gut that it is not over until the last trump of God sounds...

If you don't stand for anything that is of God and just go with the flow, how would you even say that life is worth living? For only in our personal relationship with the Lord brings groundedness and centrality--to a clear path.

Lord Jesus, let the truth, wisdom, and the power of your Word continue to delight me and color my world with the rainbow of your promise that you're coming back "and every tongue shall confess that you are the Lord of all and every head will bow to your majesty."

Life & Death Are In The Power Of Your Vote...




Blogging is a platform for me where I share my thoughts conservatively. Oftentimes, that didn't click with my readers because I wasn't quite forthcoming and not bold enough to share the real issues. As a writer in my own right, it is very important to me that I make a connection with my readers, otherwise, my writing; the words I put unto the page is just a form of discourse which is void of depth and purpose. If that's the case, I am guilty of having presumptuous pride in having such a given gift...
Where am I going with this perception? I know that I have been slacking off with writing consistently. Sometimes, I think I make a bundle of excuses for not doing so and have mastered it through the years. Having said that, not writing even when you don't feel like it, is not a mark of a writer. You call yourself a writer when you still write even when experiencing writer's block. Just write why you have to--that makes sense.

So... Today, my muse to writing is the upcoming election here in the U.S. I already cast my vote. This time, I was armed with the knowledge of which platform of the presidential candidate is Biblical based. So glad that our church has posted the platforms of both parties.
Are you aware that your vote will be judged before the Lord and be accounted for whether you voted secularly or biblically? Please don't call or profess yourself a Christian or a Godly believer if you voted for a party that advocates abortion, you know that's murder on all counts. What about redefining marriage? Are we that oblivious over what God says about a marriage between a man and a woman? Do we really hate God that much that everything that is of this world is transformed to nullifying what God says about that? Think about our first Constitutional amendment! Once you voted for the wrong presidential candidate, you can say goodbye to your right to worship, to the God that created us all...These are my three main concerns; the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman; the rights of the unborn and our first constitutional amendment not to be curtailed and dictated. Once these three truths are securely in place, all the other issues will follow through. I have never been so intentional and purposeful in what to share till now. I believe that if we all exercise the right to vote and choose wisely, America, being the most powerful and prosperous country in the world will remain like what it is now. And I know that with steadfast prayers, obedience to the Word of God, humility not greed, a heart of gratitude for all the blessings that God has continually blessed this country, God's grace will have the final pursuit...on Tuesday! Another thing to remember that America is great because of our affinity with Israel. That's one of the caveats to our country's flourishing...Whoever shows support to Israel as a nation will be noteworthy in the eyes of God...
"God Bless America... the land of the free!

2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
