Hello,
It has been some time since the site has been updated and for that, I, Deb Nichols, apologize. This seed for this site was planted a little over 4 years ago, as the 2020 election approached. In the fall of 2020, the site url was reserved and little more was done until after the chaos of the 2020 election began. I had stalled in my work for the Lord and wow, did I have an election hangover like many others in our country.
During those months after the election, I kept praying for God’s almighty hand to take significant and swift action, but that wasn’t His plan. God wanted His followers to stand up! We Christ’s church, the Ekklesia, need to continue standing up for Christ, His Gospel of love and peace and for our Father Almighty in Heaven. Regardless of the outcome of the election, we each need to be open to God’s leading for new ways to serve Him and those around us in need of Christ’s love and the Gospel.
Throughout the Old Testament, Israel and Judah had both good and evil leaders, depending on the actions of God’s people, the Jews. As God’s people, aligned with the Founding Father’s who established a covenant with our Lord and Savior at the beginning of this country, we need to repent for the sin we have allowed and at times fostered in this country. We need to seek a way back to God the Father, desiring His path for a way to move forward with good leadership in our nation, states, cities and communities.
I pray for 2 things this election season:
- Righteous leadership will be put in place at all levels of our government, from the President to all positions at state and local levels.
- May we as Christians seek and better follow Your ways, evaluating our own ways and choices as critically as we do others. May we be willing to step out of our comfort zones, to take action for you Lord, as You lead us.
There is a wonderful organization called “Million Voices”. It is a non-profit, non-partisan organization focused on highlighting candidates view on various topics. Below are links to an English and Spanish version of a Presidential Candidate Fact Sheet:
Presidential Senate Candidate Fact Sheet – Million Voices (English)
Voter Guide (Trump/Harris) (8.5 x 11 in) (millionvoices.org) (Español)
Be encouraged to review more of the site, as it has a number of other fact sheets available for various states. God has blessed us Christians with citizenship that affords us the right to vote. We need to be responsible with that blessing, educate ourselves and take action.
May you prayerfully be responsible this election season!!
Now, as we love to do, let us close prayer:
Dear Lord,
We pray today for righteous leaders to be elected at all levels of our government on Tuesday. From the President to state and local officials, may those seeking to serve You and Your ways be put in positions of power. Marginalize any who seek to serve other, selfish and self-serving desires.
Father, may we again be a nation seeking to serve You. Teach us new ways to love our neighbors, ways that align to Your commandments. Teach us to discern Your plans and next steps for any and every situation.
May we all come together in love and prayer for our nation under You, Almighty God!
In Jesus Christ’s name we pray.
Amen.
God bless you, your family, our communities and our nation!
