It Looks Like President Obama at this Point

Well at 9:30 pm and all the major nextworks having already called Pennsylvania and Ohio for Obama - its beginning to look like an Obama win. If it holds, according to the media, America's government is moving more to the left or the liberal side. This really should not surprise us as Americans. With immigration, secularization, a very liberal and immoral media, and add to that a very weak, anemic church in America...our government is a reflection of the grass roots. Research shows that as a nation we are becoming less moral and more pluralistic.

What does that mean for we that are Christians? It means that we must let the light of Christ shine like never before. We must be bold for Christ and stop assuming or living like we live in a "christian" nation. We must get back to the fundamentals of the Christian faith like prayer, fasting, Bible reading, godly living, and we must see corporate revival in the American church. We have to stop the complacency and truly repent from our sins. I really believe we are in for some very difficult times in 2009 and not just because President Obama will be in power. This is truly a time "to draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to us" (James 4:8).

The election changes nothing for the true follower of Christ. Our best is yet to come! Remember, what we sang Sunday "...surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all these days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever..." (Psalm 23).
