America…

Yesterday we had the opportunity to see Senator John McCain at the Indianapolis International Airport. There were around 1500 or so people there to welcome him. It was an inspiring experience.
As I thought about today’s election of the next president of the United States. The well known verse in 2Chronicles 7:14 came to mind:
“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.”
I realized the need to pray and recognize that God alone is the One who can heal a land if His people, the church, would humble themselves and seek His face.
Whoever is elected today, I know that God allowed it and has a purpose in it. Let us all turn to the Lord on our knees and seek His face that He might show mercy upon our Nation. God bless America.
God’s will will be done in this country because of the prayers of His people. The Bible says “The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.” (Proverbs 21:1). Do you see it? The future and direction of this country does not depend on the king (President), but on the KING of kings!
May God bless America!
Wow – what an opportunity! Great photos.
What a blessing to know that He is indeed on the throne, reigning Sovereign over all things – even the 2008 U.S. Presidential election. The verse above reminds me once again where repentance and change must begin – my own heart and then unto my sphere of influence and throughout the whole world (Acts 1:8). I appreciate your persepctive, brother!
