It seems prudent today to remind us that distractions are, if we will see it, confirmation that we are on target with our spiritual efforts.
As we pray for the 2020 US General Elections, distractions are at all-time highs. We cannot afford to lose focus.
We must remain fixed on God's goal: that everyone is saved and understands the truth (1 Timothy 2.4). That includes the candidates of our choice AND the candidates that are not our choice.
With all the noise going on across the USA and the world right now, there remains an age-old spiritual battle between good and evil.
This battle between good and evil is raging. We are compelled by Jesus' prayer for forgiveness on the Cross to understand that all of the candidates are engaged in this battle whether they understand it or not. And, because they are all engaged in this battle, they need PRAYER - they need God's help - they need God's forgiveness.
And, as WE understand how the Kingdom of God operates, they need OUR help and forgiveness!
When Jesus claimed "all authority" in Matthew 28, and then commissioned His followers to "go," it was in that same authority that He sent them. It was in that same authority that He sent US!
Let the souls of all the candidates be on your heart as you pray for this election. There is simply no Kingdom allowance for us to hold hatred and unforgiveness. None.
God help and forgive Donald Trump, Mike Pence, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. We JOIN YOU with our help and forgiveness! God, save the world, God, save the USA!
