“Politically Powered to be Politically Correct… But Does that Apply to the Believer?”
Politics has some of the most interesting parameters that set the atmosphere, with an emphasis on not offending. From Places of Employment to Social Gatherings, we have been conditioned not to talk about Religion, Money, or Politics. How strategic is it for us to have an issue with doing either of the three? It goes without saying, people should be able to express their thoughts without immediate cancellation.
However, it is concerning for how much of a divide there is concerning churches, when it comes to Politics. There is such a diverse thought, even in churches when it comes to discussing Religion, Money, & Politics! Should that even be the case? Brace yourself for this next statement! I think what is the greatest fallacy for Politics in America is to think that either party is designated to align us with the Plan of Heaven. Both sides can be hugely culpable of a host of red flags and measures that are antithetical to the Word of God!
This is not a blog to sway your vote or influence you not to vote. It is a blog to cause you to think about how much we have been groomed to be quiet, all in the name of being Politically Correct. What appears to be Correct today is not going against the status quo or speaking up against a majority rule Voice.
The very life of the Believer will have you overstep the Politically Correct line so many times, that it will keep you on the Most Wanted List! It is not that you are waking up looking for trouble. It is the by-product of a heart and mind that has been transformed. The desire to please God more than being accepted by the World. After all, how will we be witnesses if we continue to shy away from opening our mouths?
November 2024 is upon us as a President will be elected. Your vote can be connected to someone’s Salvation! Do not allow an aisle divide to hinder you from keeping first things first! The only One who can Save us already did what only He could do! Challenges will continue to arise here on earth, but it will never impede the ability of God to keep us like He did the Hebrew Boys, even in captivity!
May our Stand overwhelmingly eclipse our bow! The more that we seek God; the more He will equip us to be an effective people in a time where the underline message is to silence us when our thoughts do not align with the World! To God, your commitment to stand for righteousness and holiness will always matter! Remember, the crowd is often not the picture, the remnant is knitted throughout scripture to keep us mindful!
The Most Powerful thing is for God to correctly use us to talk about any topic that can give listeners an understanding for who He is and what pleases Him!
DIVINE WORK & PRAY:
WORK:
Jot down in your journal topics that you have been apprehensive to bring up and why? Has God ever used you to dialogue with someone and it brought about questions concerning their Walk with God?
PRAY:
Father God, there is a freeness in you to cover topics that allow people to be set free! Your liberty is on display even in some of the most challenging times! You have equipped us to stand in this hour! Thank you for empowering us to love You and Your Word more than we fear backlash and persecution! Keep us sensitive to what you are doing in this hour! As we are on the cusp of an elected President, I pray that the church be a lighthouse and not an absent, uninhabited edifice! Oh God, keep us mindful of the great need for You!
