The Spiritual Side of This Election Season

While some, because of the religious freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution, may not and do not believe in God, their beliefs must be respected, but must not stand in the way of those of us who do believe in God.

As America prepares for the most significant election since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, it seems a good time to remind so many that this nation was founded on godly principles. “We The People” have always been a godly people. Our currency reflects that in the words “In God We Trust”. While some, because of the religious freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution, may not and do not believe in God, their beliefs must be respected, but must not stand in the way of those of us who do believe in God.

In this crucial election season, we must be and remain a nation of prayer. Those of us who believe in God must not be ashamed or afraid to pray, publicly. The scriptures of the Bible clearly point out the nature of our battle. In Ephesians 6: 12, the following words are found: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Through the MAGA movement and the abandonment of our Constitution by the Republican side of our government, we have and are seeing “spiritual wickedness in high places”. But we also see that God has an answer and that, in times such as these, he uses the wickedness to make way for the preservation of what he has given us. This being said, what we see in the ground swell of support for the Harris/Walz Campaign would not have been possible without the “Clear and Present Danger” of Donald Trump and his disciples masquerading as the Republican Party.

While we must register and vote, we must also PRAY. How we must pray is found in the scriptures in 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal the land”. Clearly, the land needs a healing. Notice in the scriptures, God says: “If my people”. The call is for those of us who know we are his people, to pray. Let’s make prayer the spiritual side of this election while we register and vote; let’s organize, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and work to save our nation. Let each one reach one and each one pray for the many. Let’s have a prayer chain from now until election day.
