I admit I didn't vote for Obama, what the man stands for DEEP in his heart worries me.... his racial view toward white people is horrifying to me, and I feel I voted as God wanted me to vote, even though He knew His plan, He wants us to stand and be heard that the world know that we know the word, and stand for what the word teaches us... Having said that, I need to say this... no matter who is in the White House... God is still on the throne... He is still in control, and Obama could not even grace the front steps of the White House, much less sit in the Oval office if God had not allowed it. God has a plan, and He told us in His word that He has an expected end
for us... and that is peace and not evil...
"Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. "
some may say "that was to the Jews"... but my answer to that is that I AM an adpoted Jew, and according to the law, and adopted child is entitled to everything a natural child is entitled to... even more... parents can leave their own children out of their will, but NOT their adopted children, so we are not left out.. they are in the natural His FIRST chosen, but He did CHOOSE us too... it was His CHOISE to adopt us, wasn't it?
"Mt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. "
Jesus was talking to Peter about the Church here... if we look back at verse 17 we see that the rock that he was talking about was Peters knowledge and total belief that Jesus is the son of the Living God...
We who believe today as Peter did at that time are part of that same Church that God was talking about then... and we can rest assured that although the gates of Hell are trying to close in on us... they WILL NOT in any way prevail against God's church...
" Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD."
God said it... so believe it!
