If you live in the United States you are probably aware of the division that has occurred in the political arena. Republicans blame Democrats and the Democrats blame the Republicans for everything. Neither party is willing to work with others although there are some that do. Politicians and citizens believe they are right in their point of view and strive to make everyone else to believe as they do.
I am not one of those people wait maybe I am. I am under the opinion that a person will think that they are better than most people when it comes to leadership or jobs. There are many such people that believe they have better leadership skills than others and when I ask why their response is because I am a better leader than you my response…oh.
My leadership is bible based because I believe the bible contains truth if I make an error than I expect someone to correct me. If nobody corrects me then when I do realize the error I will apologize and correct myself.
My point is that people will have opinions and most people want to persuade you to their opinion. I may be one of those people that like to persuade other people. I believe that this world that we live in is God’s world and not our own. Humankind would like to claim this world as to be their own but cannot because they did not create it.
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1
God created people He breathed life into them
7 then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. Genesis 2:7
Essentially humankind is here on this world by God’s permission. It is not our world it is God’s world. Yet we see evil in the news almost every day we see wars and conflicts we see angry people. Even though this is God’s world the evil one or satan has his hands on people. Below is a scripture that I think is worth mentioning at this point.
19 We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. 1 John 5:19
The evil one or satan wants all of humankind to turn away from God because the evil one or satan believes man is always evil and sinful and that human kind should never go to God. Yes I know that there should be a capital “S” on satan but I think that gives the evil one or satan too much recognition or too much credit.
There are many people that have a love for money, cars and materialistic things in this world. They are the ones that do not love God. On the other hand there are many Christians that are wealthy but do not do the things that God has asked us to do. Greed and selfishness is prevalent in our present day world. The scripture below is for those Christians.
17 But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? 1 John 3:17
And this is for everyone else.
15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2:15
People always think that they know better than other people and other people think they know better than anyone else and they are called “Politicians.” Present day social media would call these people “Karen’s” other members of society would say they are “woke.” Admittedly some of these people have a Christian background which is somewhat embarrassing. Here is a reminder to all those people.
29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men. Acts 5:29
Remember:
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 NIV
God bless all that read this with His love, light, grace, mercy, and wisdom in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. Revelation 22:21
