The Biden Administration has been a Grim Tunnel of National Darkness!

God’s hand of grace has once again showered the United States with mercy and love as he placed Donald J. Trump back in the Whitehouse! The four years of the Biden administration saw a proliferation of evil and sin that started at the top and permeated to all levels of our nation!

It is thrilling to hope that Biblical principles may once again become a factor in the decisions made by the government of the United States. Over the last four years, too many decisions, coming from Washington, have been unmitigated nonsense.

President Elect, Trump has often mentioned the need for a return to “common sense” and I enthusiastically endorse a national return to common sense!

A nation, just like a business, must operate sensibly and follow some semblance of economic propriety. The nation’s ability to print money provides some latitude, but, as this nation has discovered, there are limits on how far that can be taken.

The Soveriegn Will of God

I am a strong believer in the Bible and acknowledge the basic truth contained in Romans 13:1 where it is written:

“13 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.”

 Consequently, I acknowledge the successive presidencies of Trump, Biden, Trump were all part of God’s plan. I believe, however, God was sending a message to his people and the world reminding us, perhaps, of Daniel 4:17 where it is written:

¹⁷ “‘The decision is announced by messengers, the holy ones declare the verdict, so that the living may know that the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes and sets over them the lowliest of people.’

Christian Responsibility

God, in his mercy, has shown us examples of the best, and the worst, Trump and Biden; it is now our responsibility, as Christians, to faithfully serve our Lord Jesus Christ and carefully follow the commands we have been given in Matthew 28:18-20:

“¹⁸ Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. ¹⁹ Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

I read of large numbers of people finding salvation in Jesus Christ all over the world; the Holy Spirit is moving in other nations, let us pray the Holy Spirit will move many in the United States as well. Let us see these next fours years as an opportunity to bring a Spirit led revival to this country!

May our Lord Jesus Christ bless, strengthen, and guide you in 2025!
