God has used [and still does] a lot of flawed men to work out His plans.
None of us can know what plans He has for Trump.
Considering that the screaming heads are now calling him a “religious zealot/bigot”, maybe his conversion is not far behind.
Nobody mortal has a really clear view into Trump’s future. However nobody knows the end of a chess game from the beginning, and still if it’s a chess master doing it versus a fumbling amateur, you have a pretty fair sense he’s going to win.
A lot of people have Trump’s ear, and he’s been meeting with some evangelists who are doubtless making the case to Trump that he is embarked on a course marked out by the Lord.
I could very easily see Trump coming out of this a believer even if he didn’t go into it that way. Theologians sometimes call such set-ups “prevenient grace.”
And... it would be a divine answer of kindness to what has been prayed around the land as it has groaned under Barack Obama.
The more and more I watch, the more I am amazed at the things that God does. And there is a pattern to this kind of event, a pattern that plays out through the bible. We might be coming out of a chastisement phase into a blessing and encouragement phase. This doesn’t guarantee our progeny will continue on such a course, but we sometimes can only play this a day at a time.
