Hello there,

There has been uproar in Britain about decisions being made concerning the economy in Britain. I personally have been shocked by it, and filled with indignation at the seeming lack of consultation that took place before it was instituted. It has since been modified, and changed, because of public protest. Yet I became aware that when expressing my condemnation of what was being done by the government, I was not praying for them: and prayer for those in authority is something that we are told to do, aren't we?

It is not easy having to take decisions of great magnitude, that can have an effect on the lives of so many people, and these representatives, who are elected into positions of power and authority on our behalf need our prayers.

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris

I told you. you ain't seen nothing yet. when the news cast start saying we got to pray, and the news asking GOD for help!:sob: GOD can you see,, come help us!:sob:

GOD is REAL:eyes:
22How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and scorners delight them in scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
23Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

24Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

26I also will laugh in the day of your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27When your fear cometh as a storm, and your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come upon you.

28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me diligently, but they shall not find me:

29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

============================================================================

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: "

>>>>>>>> TEACH THEM WHAT?

"Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen."


so let us observe.
Our government is not doing this "GOD IS":eyes:
 
New King James Version
I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these things.

New American Standard Bible
The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating disaster; I am the LORD who does all these things.

NASB 1995
The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these.


I understand humanity, they want GOD to be like them in what they call Goodness, and Respectability;

God Uses Cyrus

1This is what the LORD says to Cyrus His anointed,
Whom I have taken by the right hand,
To subdue nations before him

And [a]to undo the weapons belt on the waist of kings;
To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:

2“I will go before you and make the https://biblehub.com/nasb_/isaiah/45.htm#fnrough places smooth;
I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.

3“I will give you the [c]treasures of darkness
And hidden wealth of secret places,
So that you may know that it is I,
The LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.

4“For the sake of Jacob My servant,
And Israel [Jesus] My chosen one,
I have also called you by your name;
I have given you a title of honor
Though you have not known Me.

5“I am the LORD, and there is no one else;
There is no God except Me.
I will [d]arm you, though you have not known Me,

6So that people may know from the rising to the setting of the sun
That there is no one besides Me.
I am the LORD, and there is no one else,

7The One forming light and creating darkness,
Causing [e]well-being and creating disaster;
I am the LORD who does all these things."

What kind of changes have they been making to your economy, has it actually effected the currency and the monetary system? The biggest problem in the economic system (the economy is the names of things, specifically meaning which language things are named in) is always in the nomenclature of natural resources "creationist vs evolutionist". Beyond that, it has a fractal effect in in geography (meaning that your borders were effected) on the basis of the national origins of the languages.
 
We are to pray with all prayer and supplications……

The prayer of binding and loosening is needed to get people out of office that should not be there.

Individually by character? I'm not there yet, I'm still in the political arena trying to snap the absolute and across the board officeholder qualifications and legal parameters back to their original dimensions. One reason is that there are too many of to "pray out of office" individually, and another one is the parable of the man who cleansed his house of demons, and the demon came back with seven brothers.
 
I don’t vote anymore. I found that when I voted,I was voting against someone else rather than for.
If and when a true man of God enters the fray,I will vote.
My home however is not on earth,let the world do as they see fit.
I am reminded of John saying,”They speak of the world and the world listens “.
Nothing will change no matter who, or what Party is in office. The dye is set,we are headed to eternity,and faith in Jesus Christ is the order of the day.
