Tomorrow, the eyes of the world will be upon us.
Tomorrow, Christian, we must live and love as those who have a hope that will never find its strength in the ballot box or in any man or woman. No matter how you feel tomorrow, ours is a hope born out of faith and bought with the blood of the One who will never disappoint us.
Tomorrow, with our lives might we proclaim an everlasting kingdom whose citizenship does not hinge on any one nation or government or the success or failure of a grand experiment.
Tomorrow, let us collectively gaze heavenward at our perfect Ruler who cannot be contained in a White House or in an Oval Office.
This we know for certain:
Tomorrow King Jesus will be on the throne and His dominion will have no end.
Tomorrow, we will have a merciful and perfect Supreme Judge whose vengeance and justice are swift, thorough, and accurate, and lacking in nothing.
Tomorrow we will have a Defender and Protector who is “clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called the Word of God” whose armies in heaven are readied to follow Him on white horses. (Revelation 19:14)
Tomorrow we will have a righteous and holy Leader before whom none can stand on their own merit, and at His very name, every knee will bow and every tongue will one day confess He is Lord.
There has been much doubt and unrest leading up to this day and what we are to do at the polls, but we know with absolute certainty how Jesus wants us to proceed from here:
Tomorrow we come boldly before the One whose mercies are new every morning and whose steadfast love never ceases.
Tomorrow and every day, we put our trust in the only One who can save us, the King of kings and Lord of lords.
Tomorrow, let it be said of us that we love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength and we love our neighbors as ourselves.
Tomorrow love the Trumpeter, the Never Trumper, and the ones with her. As fellow image bearers, love deeply and sincerely, especially those who oppose us.
When we wake pray for our leaders and let blessing and not cursing be on our tongues.
Tomorrow, come and lay our burdens at His feet.
Tomorrow, put off our red and blue shrouds and take up our crosses and follow Him wherever He may lead us.
Tomorrow, continue to seek justice, fight the good fight, and finish the race.
Tomorrow, choose faith and not fear. For if we are submitted to Christ, there is nothing anyone can take from us that we have not already freely given to God. All of it belongs to Him: our money, our possessions, our happiness, even our freedom.
We are released from despair and freed to praise Him because our inheritance is secure and His kingship is not in jeopardy.
Tomorrow, Christian, let us prove our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ love and righteousness. We dare not trust in our vote or leader or government, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
Tomorrow and every day, Christian, proclaim to the watching world "’tis so sweet to trust in Jesus."
Oh for grace to trust Him more.
Oh for grace to trust Him more.
“And the government will rest on His shoulders. And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Almighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness from then on and forevermore.” Isaiah 9:6-7
“Some trust in chariots and some in horses but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Psalm 20:7
