All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me...

~ Matthew 28:18

 

The American presidential election is coming up.  Who will Americans vote for?  The choices are fairly clear: McCain or Obama.  And most of us know who is in the lead...from the perspective of man.  But before Christians go to the polls to make their choice in the ballot box, they must choose the next president in the prayer closet.  And who must they choose?  Not Obama.  And not McCain.  Then who?  God.  Who will have more authority after the presidential election: the newly elected president or God?  Don't let that be a hard question to answer.  Our prayers must put God in the Oval Office...and in the Senate...and in the House of Representatives.  Prayer brings the presence of God into the high places.  God alone has ultimate authority.  And he has entrusted to us the task of enforcing that authority through prayer.  So, elect God for president.  Starting now.
