Yes. God sets up kings and takes them down. It is in the Bible. It’s just like when the people were begging for a king. The Lord gave them Saul.
Daniel answered and said:
“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
to whom belong wisdom and might.
He changes times and seasons;
He removes kings and sets up kings;
He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to those who have understanding;
Daniel 2:20-21
There is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Romans !3:1
Oops. Romans 13:1.
But wasn’t that ONLY for those Jews, at that TIME?
Surely you can’t believe that GOD anointed Obama, can you ?
