In just a few days our nation will have a new president. After months of campaign commercials and stump speeches, Barak Obama is about to take office. The Bible commands us to pray for our leaders and those the HE (God) has set in places of authority over us. Romans 13:1 tells us, "there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."So our first job is to pray for the sovereign hand of God to direct his steps as the head of our country. But, as Christians, we also have an obligation to stand for what is right. In the days to come I believe there will be many opportunities for us to stand up and defend the family, the unborn and the Christian way of life.
As these basic freedoms come under attack, we are given the chance to stand unwavering upon the principles of God's Word for that which is right, while continuing to pray for God's hand to be upon those whom He (God) has put in place to lead our nation.
