I think the events of the election in the United States should remind us all of a lesson the Bible has been teaching us for as long as we each have been Believers in Yeshua the Messiah.
Psalm 20:7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
American Believers were looking to President Trump as the defender of conservative, godly values; anti-abortion, pro prayer in schools etc. Israeli Believers and unbelievers alike were looking to him as the best friend Israel ever had; military support, Jerusalem the Capital, peace with many Arab neighbors etc. The fact is, God does not need anyone to defend His values nor does He need a President to be Israel's best friend. God has supported, defended and watched over Israel since Abraham first left Ur thousand of years ago, and He is still able, willing and capable of doing it. As Believers in Yeshua the Messiah our eyes should be focused on Yeshua and not on man:
Psalm 33:20 Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and our shield.
Hi Ellen here…Well another jam-packed week spiritually. I only have a few lines for you today however I believe in my heart we all desire the will of God to be done, here goes… "Be still and know that I Am God; Let go and let God; When I am weak then I am strong; A wise man receives correction; Create in me O Lord a clean heart; Give thanks in all things; Pray unceasingly; Let us not grow weary in doing good; Out of the heart the mouth speak; Blessed are the peacemakers; Forgive them Lord for they do not know what they do…" Keep looking up, Yeshua is coming!
