God Is The Final Authority

God Is The Final Authority "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established." Romans 13:1 In another three years we will be electing a President of our great nation, and this is a critical time where we can again have a part in this process. During our lifetime, we have set back and watched the morals of our society decay, to the point that God has almost been removed from our everyday life. Abortion mills continue to prosper, and the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman, has pretty much been removed as a way of life. For generations our forefathers kept God in the forefront of their lives and their families. Today, over half of all marriages end in divorce, and families do not have the right foundation, on which to build their lives. We can see throughout the Bible that when a society deteriorates to this point, that God took drastic action to punish the people. He destroyed the entire earth by a great flood, and only spared the family of Noah. He destroyed the great cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, when they turned their backs on Him, and His laws and commandments. Is our society facing God's wrath and judgment because of our transgressions? Will God soon unleash His punishment on our nation because of our unwillingness to follow His laws? We should have learned our lesson from reading the history of the Bible, but we haven't. When we take God out of the family, the government, and all aspects of our life, we are dangerously close to God sending His wrath and His judgment against us. When you vote for any elected official, look at the principles and character of the people who are running. Vote for a man that makes God first in his life, as God will govern through him, and provide him wisdom to lead us. My Daily Devotional Volume Six June 14 Robert William Brock, Jr.
