Obama scares me. I am not going to use fancy rhetoric to be politically correct. He cares nothing about the unborn, nothing about the family, and he thinks taxing the rich to make everyone equal will move this country forward. He is under such deception and it is scary.
I put my hope and trust in Jesus and I am praying for the church to wake up and pray. I feel called to do something radical. I have been praying about my faith walk and truly trusting God. I am praying for discernment between the burden of prayer and trusting God. I challenge you to do this with me. Pray fervently but..............
Philippians 4:6 (New International Version)
6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Thank you Lord for your Word and your protection. I love you Lord and recognize I am nothing without you. Please make order out of the disorder of this country. I repent for not praying more about this. I commit to be in your word and to not be anxious about anything. You are the Faithful One.
TRUST HIM AND PRAY
There is nothing like good discernment. Good discernment comes from God. I love the following verse from 1 John 2:27 that says the anointing of God teaches us. While I value a great sermon, Christian book or discussion, this verse says the Holy Spirit is the true teacher of all things.
The Lord told me a long time ago, "Carol, you cannot live off of someone else's revelation, I will give you your own." I believe this was good council to say, read what you will but my will and truth for your life comes from my word and my anointing.
At the end of the day, aren't you glad you do not have to trust man for truth. Read the word, pray and live in the anointing.
1 John 2:27 (New International Version)
27As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him.
