Who Did You Think, Was In Charge?

Good Morning!! Jesus Christ is not only the King of kings, and the Lord of lords - He is the President of presidents, the Sovereign over every sovereign. He rules in every place, no matter what form the local government takes. There is not a prime minister, or a dictator, or a guerrilla force, or a terrorist cell that is outside God's notice. No one is able to upset the immutable purposes of God or overthrow His supreme reign.

In the Lord’s hand the king’s heart is a stream of water that he channels toward all who please him.Proverbs 21:1 (NIV)

This is a great comfort, when we see that there are so many things outside of our own control. Whether it is a military coup in Africa or an election race in America, our hopes and plans are easily overthrown. But not so with God. God has shown His power to overthrow human purposes, even of the most august and revered leaders on earth. He brought down Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, Ahab, and Herod. He turned the heart of Pharaoh in Moses' day, Xerxes in Esther's day, and Saul of Tarsus in Ananias' day,...and it goes for Obama, or Romney in our day too,...fear not! 

No matter who's in charge, or what they have planed,...our God is in complete control.

Holy Spirit, help us to keep heart. Because God is still on his throne,...no matter what political or social or economic upheavals threaten to shake our world. Let us remember; the hearts of kings are still in God's hand. Amen!

"To walk with God,...our focus needs to be on God."
