1 Sam. 12 [The Message]

This is a big conditional “IF.” When kings, presidents, leaders follow God, things will go much better. For one thing, Christians will have a lot more confidence in the leader. It gets tough when a leader does not follow the Lord and His Ways.

What to do? Pray! As long as you’re not required to do something that is totally against your conscience or your moral values, do your best to comply with their rules. If you submit to them as unto God, God’s GIANT HAMMER enters the picture. He will lower the boom on the leader and all who are his operatives. In time, God’s retribution or recompense will be apparent. Saul messed up. God sent Samuel to him to announce, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day and has given it to a neighbor of yours who is better than you.” [1 Sam. 15:28]
