2012 Elections - I'm
Simply Not
Scared
He
knows the number of the stars and calls them all by
name.
 | I
have a confession to make. Last presidential election I was a
freak case. I totally freaked out and thought it was the end of the
world when Obama got into office. Letting all the fear tactics of
the evil one get to me, I lost focus and took my eyes off of Jesus,
in the moment.
And
that is exactly what the devil wants us to do, lose focus and not
see so clearly, to be blinded by our own fear and rendered useless
for the time. Well, this time is different. This presidential
election, I will not be moved. I will hold onto the promises of God
and know that He is more than able to deliver His people from what
ever comes our way.
There are two ways that Satan can render
a believer pretty much useless, and that is pride and fear. Both of
which require a strong focus on the Lord, in order to not fall
into temptation of.
The bible tells us that fear is not of
the Lord. Therefore allowing ourselves to cast a vote for even
the lesser of two evils out of fear, we can most assuredly know is
not of the Lord. I am not going to tell you who to vote for or who
not to vote for. I am not even going to tell you not to vote. I am
just suggestion to not allow fear to be the reason you do whatever
it is you do with your
vote.
No matter
what happens as a result of the 2012 presidential election, God will
still be in control. Nothing will come as a shock to Him.
Scripture says that God knows the number of all the stars,
billions of trillions of stars; He has even named them all.
Scripture also says that he has numbered every hair on our heads.
The way I figure it is if God takes the time to
name billions of trillions of stars and number all of the hairs
on all of our heads, He surely takes
the time to deliver those of us who are His out
of any and all evil that comes our way. Whether it be in
life or in death.
Psalms 147:4 He telleth the number of the
stars; he calleth them all by their
names.
