The Proper Perspective

It’s easy for us to criticize and offer political analysis of all things pertaining to Obama and Liberalism in general. We all do it and, for the most part, make valid points. Frankly, I LOVE political analysis, whether it’s reading it or writing it. From time to time, however, we need to step back and realize WHO is ultimately in charge. The Bible says: “For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another” (Psalm 75:6-7).

Have you ever asked yourself: “How in this world did Obama ever win the presidency?” I sure have. After all the mental gymnastics, all the shoulda-coulda-woulda armchair quarterbacking that we love to engage in, the Word of God has our answer: God Almighty put him there!

God gives nations WHAT they deserve, and often gives them MORE than they deserve. But he doesn’t give nations LESS than they deserve. In President Barack Obama, God gave America exactly what she deserved!

Now you might argue that America deserves better. Well, there are 55 million murdered babies that would argue against that notion. Take into account all the political corruption, the corporate greed, the kicking of God out of our schools and the public arena, our leaders calling right wrong and wrong right, and you have a cauldron of moral filth whose stench rises to the heavens.

The Obama government is the most corrupt in our history. Under Obama’s leadership America is fast becoming Sodom. For those who argue it already is, I’ll concede that point.

The next and more important question is: “Is America now under the judgment of God?” You draw your own conclusions. But I’ll say this. If we are, and it’s hard to see how that’s NOT the case, there is no political party, no President, no Cabinet and no amount of conservatism that will spare us from God’s plagues.

The ONLY way of escape from the calamity that is yet to come is GODLY SORROW followed by REPENTANCE coupled with CONFESSION! It must start first in God’s churches, whose lukewarmness is giving the Lord a divine stomach ache.

Yes, America’s NO. 1 problem is SIN…from the top down. The solution is nothing less than the precious blood of Jesus Christ!
