Romans 13:1 (NIV) - "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."
Barack Obama is the new President of the United States of America. His first day as president is not even over, and he's already up to his eyeballs in messy situations and problems, among them the international financial crisis and the ever-looming threat of terrorism.
Please pray for President Obama, whether or not you voted for him or support his policies. He's going to need it.
Two of President Obama's main themes during his campaign, as well as during his inaugural speech this afternoon, were change and hope. And so today I want to ask you these two questions:
1. What do you need to change in your spiritual life and in your ministry in order to grow closer to God, grow more Christ-like, and bear much more fruit?
2. What hope has waned in your spiritual life and in your ministry, and how can you bolster your faith in order to re-kindle this hope?
Whether you agree with President Obama or not, these two issues are vital ones to address, be it in presidential politics or in international ministry.
