THE MIRROR IN THE VOTING BOOTH

 

THE MIRROR IN THE VOTING BOOTH

  The election is kinda sorta over as there are those contesting the results, even claiming fraud. Such things stirring and not yet settled in the public eye.

  Slicing through all of the hoopla, smoke and curtains, what say you dear Christian was and is the most important matter in the election? Who now will be our political representatives?

  If this is so, we have missed the most important count.

  The most important count not being who is elected. Most important is have we voted in a way pleasing to Sovereign God Almighty!

  Elections come and go or are not at all, but standing before Him is the constant.

  Romans [ESV] 12:1-2 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. 

  James 1:22-25 … be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing. 

  Hebrews 4:12-13 … the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. [Gen.3:7]
