Agent of Change

Every nation and its leaders are accountable to God. The decisions they make are moral choices with moral consequences. He alone determines a nation's "success" or lack thereof. He is the Roaring Lion of history--the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He can come as a lion to destroy or as a lion to deliver. Or both. Slow to anger, patient, but the God who gives you the harvest of your sowing--the consequences for your choices. His "requirements": seek Him. promote righteousness, punish wickedness, use your prosperity to help the oppressed and needy, worship Him in spirit and in truth, and give Him thanks. If a nation and its people think they can defy the "I will" of the omnipotent Creator God of the universe, they are delusional.
Pray for your leaders that God might bring them to Himself, open their eyes to His leading, be couragous in the face of the opposition that such leadership invaribly will face. Quit criticizing. Pray. The heart of the king is in His hands--not yours. He is the "Agent of Change."
