Ex. 18-20 [The Message]
We linger another day.
When Jethro advised Moses to select men to help him in judging the Hebrews while in the desert, he recommended that “competent, incorruptible men” be selected. This makes total sense, and yet in our current election process, this principle is almost nowhere to be found. What a SHAME!!! Present day politicians have competent PR machines to create a false image, lots of ca$$$h, and can tell an untruth without blinking. How far have we fallen?
Our current political process turns electable nitwits into power-greedy gazillionaires. What happened to the “Honest Abe” type of person? (His is the only name I will mention)
Our nation needs prayer! In the same way Egypt’s sin and corruption became such a stink in God’s nostrils, He must be approaching that level with us now.
Omnipotent Father in Heaven, we ask You to uproot the corruption in our government and bring to the forefront competent, incorruptible men and women to rule us. Forgive us for criticism without faith and prayer. We ask in the Mighty Name of Jesus. We believe.
