God is Still in Control
Filed Under Devotional
I seem to get more emotionally involved with Presidential elections with each one I watch. I’ve watched a few with excitement as my choice won. I’ve watched a few with disappointment when my choice didn’t. The next morning, though, things seem to even out. The highs aren’t so high as I consider all the issues my party of choice will have to deal with. The lows aren’t so low as I start to think about some better candidates in the future.
Regardless, I’m reminded that there’s Someone else in control.
“He changes times and seasons;
he sets up kings and deposes them.
He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to the discerning.” Daniel 2:21
God is placing these men in positions of leadership. God is placing this responsibility on their shoulders. We should pray for them. We should do all we can to help lead the country where God would have us go. We should do His will.
If your guy won, don’t get cocky. God is still in control.
If your guy lost, don’t worry. God is still in control.
