Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, members of His flock, of which Jesus is the Shepherd (John 10:16), Jesus being the first to preach His gift of repentance (Matthew 4:17), now calling on each of us also to preach repentance (Luke 24:47).
The key instruction Nehemiah received from God about 2500 years ago, and then spoke to those around him, speaks to you and me today:
So I stationed armed men behind the wall in the lowest places, at the open positions [where it was least protected]; and I stationed the people in families with their swords, spears, and bows. When I saw their fear, I stood and said to the nobles and officials and the rest of the people: “Do not be afraid of them; [confidently] remember the Lord who is great and awesome, and [with courage from Him] fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and for your homes.” (Nehemiah 4:13,14 amplified).
So we too have a fight on our hands. You and I have to take our places on the wall. We have a fight on our hands. Will this nation turn to its Godly roots in repentance? Or will we follow man's increasingly disastrous ways?
Pastor Steve Riggle, Grace Woodlands Church, posted this message:
Over the next two weeks Americans will be heading to the polls. The future direction of our nation will be decided by those who win the elections.
Both sides have told us where they intend to take us. The direction could not be more polar opposite, depending on who wins.
The cry for Marxism, socialism, and Islamic control are loud and sustained. The cries to destroy our system of capitalism that has given every person who wants it, an opportunity to pursue a life that is the envy of the world are unbelievable. The vitriol against those who are running to preserve the traditional family, life, Godly values and the American way of life is at a level I have never seen.
It begs the question…WHAT SHOULD THE RIGHTEOUS DO?
Nehemiah’s charge to the attacks and threats in his day serve us well in our day. Take your place on the wall, take your weapon in one hand and with the other, accomplish the task that is set before you.
In other words,
STAND BOLDLY…refuse to be intimidated by those who want to destroy our nation and silence your voice.
USE YOUR WEAPON OF INTERCESSION…pray through Psalms 140-144–David’s cries against his enemies and for God’s intervention. Let those words became the cries of the Godly in our nation against the AntiChrist spirit trying to destroy our society. You can “pray the Word” over our nation every day in a matter of minutes.
MAKE SURE YOU VOTE FOR CANDIDATES WHO WILL PRESERVE OUR HISTORIC VALUES…check out where every candidate stands. Don’t be fooled by slick and misleading rhetoric. Help the candidates by working the polls for them. Everything of the preservation of our nation depends on you.
I am asking every pastor to put out something like this to your congregation and your sphere of influence. Let’s not be silent or give in to the “it’s political” label.
IT IS TIME WE STAND…
IT IS TIME WE PRAY…
IT IS TIME WE ACT….VOTE EARLY!
