We’ve Created A Monster – The Saturday Morning Post by Pastor Ted Stahl
Good morning? Remember: “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” (Psalm 118:24)
I’ve determined to rejoice and be glad no matter what this Tuesday may bring. It’s hard though, to watch your country – a country founded on God’s Word – be flushed down the tubes by those who embrace godless socialism and hate America.
God gave these words to Solomon to record for us. The first four verses of Proverbs 3 read: “My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.”
And we became a great nation, one blessed by God and loved by man. What happened? In 1962, the Supreme Court removed public prayer from our schools. In 1973, the Supreme Court legalized abortion. Just a short twelve years ago, copies of the Ten Commandments were ordered removed from courthouses and other government buildings. The godless socialists want you to forget about God. They want you to rely on Big Brother to supply your every need, not God. As individuals we need to do what we need to do: if you’re not registered to vote, get registered. Follow verses 5 through 10 of Proverbs 3: “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.”
Jesus said, “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” (Matthew 5:44-45)
Is it raining?
Peace. (Proverbs 3:6)

Well said! We must have faith that even a bad election outcome is still God’s will!
