You're welcome, Doc. I was following it a bit, too, but out of curiosity, not anxiety. No matter who wins the Whit House, all that truly matters is Who rules the throne of our hearts, and the throne in heaven! He neither slumbers nor sleeps. Any ruler, in any country, ultimately snswers to Him. As Jesus said to Pilate, "Thank you for this! Literally having a panic attack right now and this settled my heart a bit.
John 19:11 KJV
Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: ...
No ruler on this earth holds office except as it is given him "from above." Whether despot or diplomat, they can only serve as far as it is given to them by the will of the Father. They think they have the power to start wars and make peace, but it is not in them. It is all subject to God's will. Angels, we are told, are holding back the winds of strife until judgment is complete and His people are marked with His seal, (Rev. 7:1-3) and then God will come to claim His own .
Revelation 22:12 KJV
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
So, as we are told in
Philippians 4:6-7 KJV
Be careful for nothing; (some translations say don't be anxious about anything) but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. [7] And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
What a promise! What a God!
