Faith and President Barack Obama

Faith and President Barack Obama,

The journey has just begun for the President, and in only the first few months we have seen change. President Obama has made choices in leading this country, good or bad he has made the choice. In his spiritual life he has made choices too. We can look at his political choices to see what his Christianity or faith is like. When we look at these months of change we might see a man of faith, or do we? We might see a man of conviction, or do we? We might see a man of strengths, or do we? We might see a man of love, or do we?

What I see is a man, acting much like King Ahaz as in Isaiah 7.

He was fearful and led a people that shook like leaves in the wind. Making choices that led the people away from God. What I see is that this is the time for change in President Barack Obama’s life. As in Isaiah 7…we are the voice being sent to the ruler, by God to tell him to: Take heed, and be quiet; do not fear or be fainthearted. And to trust in God because: Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.

Let us not condemn a man, let alone the President of the United States in his time of trial/authority? It is time that we stop complaining and honor God for placing President Obama in power for this time. This could be and more likely will be the defining hours of how President Obama is brought to a true and full commitment to Jesus Christ.

Now…how about you?

Are you placing God first and looking to Him to see how we help our new President Make Godly choices. Are we the ones that are unfaithful by complaining about a President that does not understand our choices? I ask that each and every man, women and child to pray for our President. First and foremost to pray that He has a true and real encounter with Jesus Christ. In that the President would come to our Lord and Savior and repent of his sins. Please pray for the Salvation of him and his family. And that President Obama would lead by following Jesus and the calling that Christ would put on his heart.

Let us give all praise and glory to our God and King. May Jesus Christ rule and reign in our hearts. Let us seek His will in our lives and let us show His love to all mankind by telling everyone we meet how great and awesome our God is. Amen.
