People who reject God (or have never studied Scripture) aggressively reject the concept that God could be using Trump.

Those who hate Trump also reject that concept.

Rejection of God and/or ignorance of Him got us to where we are today.

But God can get us out. And the God who came to us not as a rich ruler but as a child born to a peasant girl uses very unexpected methods indeed.

Very true. God used the Pharoah in Egypt without changing his heart. Trump is not invincible and must still be protected. Lowering the temperature of debate is not weakness. It takes more energy to hold our tongues. We must firstly, as brothers and sisters in Christ, share the Gospel, right? Increase faith and make people wonder why we're different and what we know so they will be encouraged to take the same path. I'm not saying I'm perfect in this manner; I fail way to often. I wish only to remind myself and other brothers and sisters what's really important. God bless everyone! Even Joe Biden, that man that is a slave to pride and arrogance and blinded from knowing his faults. Poor guy. He hasn't a chance to make it with his unrepentant heart.

And consider the number of times Pharaoh was just about to give in, when his heart was hardened yet again.

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob can also get us ‘through’.

We pray that He will get us ‘out’, but since we have been complicit in the sins committed by our own government through our very silence, I have a feeling we will have to go THROUGH some hard times, just as Israel did in the wilderness, just as the three Hebrew children going through the fire. But HE will be with us. May He Who wrestled with Jacob wrestle us and may HE win!!!!

I wish I could ❤️ love this a thousand time. He is always with us … he helps handle what we are given. We can do anything through him.

I just ordered a book called The Fourth Turning is Here. Might be something you'd wanna read. (I have NO idea if it's a good book or not. It just sounds like it's on the same wavelength you are.)
