“Vote the Enemy Out” by Dr. Larry Ollison
We have the awesomeblessing and responsibility of being able to choose the leadership of ournation. We have the method in place whereby we can install godly men and womeninto office, and we can uninstall evil men and women from their office.
Unfortunately, thereis a default setting when it comes to voting. When we choose good leaders, ourleadership is good. When we choose evil leaders, our leadership is evil.However, if we become lazy, complacent, or apathetic, and for any reason failto choose, our vote is not neutral. Our vote goes to the default setting. Bynot choosing good, we choose evil by default. Let me explain.
In the kingdom of God choices are critical. Your salvationis based upon a choice that you have made. If you choose Jesus as your Lord andSavior, you will be saved. If you choose to reject Jesus, you will not besaved. However, if for any reason you decide to delay your choice or have the“everything will work itself out” mentality, you will not be saved. To besaved, you must choose to be saved. By not choosing, you actually choose the defaultsetting which is “lost.”
When Paul was talkingto King Agrippa, the king told Paul that he was “almost persuaded” to become aChristian. “Almost persuaded” or “almost decided” doesn’t work in God’skingdom. As a Christian we are in this world, but we are not of this world. Wemust act on God’s principles and not man’s. We must choose righteous leaders.Otherwise, evil leaders will prevail.
You have theresponsibility and the ability. Decide to choose. Do not allow complacency,laziness or busyness to derail you. Remember, by not choosing to vote for godlyleaders, by default you are choosing abortion, homosexuality and every evilwork that the enemy desires.
Therefore, submit toGod. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)
By voting for godlyleaders, we are submitting to God’s plan. By submitting to God’s plan, theenemy will flee. And the result is this. By voting for godly leaders, weautomatically vote the enemy out.
Righteousness exaltsa nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. (Proverbs 14:34)
