“A
malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but in his heart he harbors
deceit. Though his speech is charming, do not believe him, for seven
abominations fill his heart. His malice may be concealed by deception, but his
wickedness will be exposed in the assembly” (Proverbs 26:24-26).
We
are looking for a new leader. But who will save us from all our troubles? Who
will take away all these hardships and disappointments plaguing us in our
times? We know we need a leader who has the ability required to lead us, one
who knows the laws and who can assume all the authority required of a good
leader. But who can do the job? The leader we want will be capable of making
important decisions on our behalf. Our appointed leader will be honest and
forthright and will possess the highest integrity before all people. The one we
choose will never waver from what is right and just. Our candidate must be
compassionate, yet firm and able to discipline when necessary. Our choice in a
leader will be one who loves us and will always have our best interest in mind
and never deceive us or mislead us but will always be here to guide us no
matter what happens.
Finding
the right candidate with all these wonderful credentials would seem almost
impossible were it not for the fact that such a person stands ready and able to
assume this highest position, all we must do is elect to receive Him. The one
whom I am speaking of is running on the Trust ticket. He is worthy! Our
candidate has been around for over 2,000 years and has all the authority of
heaven. He is already King, He is LORD already! He is Christ Jesus!
Elect
Jesus, He brings awesome “change worth having.”
