The Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.”
1 Samuel 16
He went to the house and there were several sons.. none of them were the one chosen. “do you have any more?” “Well, there is one out with the sheep... he’s young though” “go get him”. when David came in, he was the one chosen.
David did some hard things, for a man of God. But the reason he was chosen ... he was willing to do the will of God. God knew his heart and it was right with God.
I do not compare Pres Trump to anyone... but I do look at what God wanted and who he chose for His reasons. There is no other man we know who could do what Trump has done and there is no other man who could take the attacks and abuse and still go on and work the hours he does. His past life is not a question in all this.. it is the fact god saw in this man,.. someone who could do what had to be done... a repreive of a sort.. for we do not know what lies ahead after 8 years.
Trump is the most conservative. he includes Bibles, prayer, better schools. school choice.. takes care of the military.. and loves the country. If you can get rid of the hate and anger and animosity and envy. .. and look at the man... he is a giving person. he helps others.. he has old fashioned common sense that has been lacking in the country. He is doing it right.. and the those who can’t stand him are following the pit leader and doing what that entity wants.... it’s a spiritual war and it’s rough.. God had to find one who could do it.
While I’m on the subject... when Jesus walked the earth, he did all good.. he healed and he helped.. he offered life eternal. the high priests did not like him.... “he is from Nazareth... his father is but a carpenter”... who did He think he was... we were here first.. and he is going over our heads. and they took him to the cross....
they asked the crowd... who do you want? Jesus or Barnabus? and they said. “give us barnabus”.... today the left and media are calling for barnabus and they do not think Trump has paid his dues.. he is not one of them... no kidding!!!!!

Not Barnabus, but Barabbas.
Think of that name - Barabbas. Bar = Son and Abbas = Father. Son of the Father = Barabbas in Aramaic.
Things to think about and the IRONY involved.
