God is our rock, our trust and hope is in Him

The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my saviour; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. Psalm18:2.

Our trust and hope is in God and not in our elected governments. At this time of elections some will be pleased and others disappointed, but our hope must always be in God who can change the hearts and minds of people we can't reach. We are told to pray for our governments in 1 Timothy 2:1-2, I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. Prayer can change everything, so as we pray for whoever is in power, God can move to bring about His desired outcome. Praise God today that our hope is in Him and not in governments.
