Our government may be the best one ever contrived. I believe these are all indisputable facts.
But, neither Trump or our mighty fine government and our founding documents are the basis of my HOPE or expectation of help.
Psalm 121:1-2 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help? My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.

God often does some zig-zagging in our lives to make sure that HE is our focus... no one else.
God will protect his man. God will encourage his people. His people are the ones who put their trust and focus on Him, and not just when we are troubled by our situations.
That is what I am thinking.
Sometimes He lulls our enemies into a place where they think it is all over for us... think Egypt, Goliath or Sennacherib. The 400 prophets of Ba-al all thought that Elijah would be toast, not them.
But, Elijah slaughtered them all before the Lord and the people, who repented for their idolatry and rebellion against God, his people and his prophets. Please, remember Agag. God had a peculiarly horrific and instructive way of dealing with Agag... (I Samuel 15:33 great story)... I laugh out loud almost every time I read it.
Can you imagine that God might do the same kind of things here in our day and age? Just because we asked Him to help? Things get very interesting and messy, when Agag starts getting cocky with God and his people.
"They will not be laughing anymore! (after listening to the 80's must hear rock hit)
Happy Warrior President Trump, your help is your Lord God. Fear not.
