No matter who you voted for, obey the Word, not your flesh...
and what does the
word say?
1 Timothy 2:2 "...Pray for...all those in authority
Paul replied, "Brothers... it is written: 'Do not speak evil about the ruler of your people.'
Romans 13:1 "Everyone must submit himself to the governing
authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established.
The authorities that exist have been established by God"
Titus 3:1-15 Remind them to be submissive to rulers and
authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of
no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward
all people. For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves
to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by
others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God
our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in
righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration
and renewal of the Holy Spirit, ...
Luke 21:8,19 "...do not be frightened. These
things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”
"... All men will hate you because of me. But not a hair of your head will
perish. By standing firm you will gain life"
Bottom Line:
Lead your family in a godly manner. Let them observe a godly response. We serve
a sovereign God. All authority is God placed, Pray for those in authority and do
not speak ill of the them. Obey the laws that do not contradict God's laws,
and joyfully suffer the consequences of obeying God's laws when they do, for you
are suffering for Christ's sake!
