The King is STILL the Same!

                 "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." -Hebrews 13:8

    The Presidential Election of the United States of America is just around the corner, and two candidates have been placed before the people. For the Democrats, President Barack Obama, and for the Republicans, Mitt Romney. Both parties and candidates are trying to plead with the public for their vote of confidence for this upcoming election, making promises left and right and taking stands on issues to draw in support from one group or another. Some people would speak in support of one candidate over the other even going as far as finding evidence to smeer the other candidate so their candidate can win. This blog/devotion isnt meant to support one candidate or another but to reacknowledge a truth found in God's word. The thing is guys, Presidents come and go, and change polices and stand points like the wind, but The King is Still the same!

"It is better to truth in the LORD than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the LORD to put confidence in princes." -Psalm 118:8-9

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance. The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He Fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he delilever any by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, accodring as we hope in thee." -Psalm 12-22

"And I, brethren, which I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:that your fiath should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God."
                                                                                                                      -1st Corinthians 2:1-5

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness: but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." -2cd Peter 3:9

      No matter who wins this election, whether it be the conservative or the liberal, the democrat or the republican, Im telling you our faith should be in Almighty God, who never changes, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Whose Word is true and whose promises are certain and sure. Presidents change but our God stays the same and we should have faith and trust in him not the men who is running or in office.

"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, and of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." -Philippians 2:9-11

"And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever." -Revelation 5:13
