Figures those a55@s over t’ap/yahoo would screw this up. She was stating her conviction regarding the contest. The Lord does not mess with human volition. It is the primary reason we are on this planet.
ruefully
I like her more and more every day!
I believe God already knows the outcome of the election.
"...we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave."I respect and praise Palin for being willing to state such truths openly and without fear.
If we work hard, have faith, rally others to our cause, teach truth, and remain committed, God can and will bless our efforts and help us.
I LOVE this lady.
She is GREAT!
This is one of the main reasons I like Mrs. Palin.
She gets it.
Most people take this phrase, and they think she's chalking the outcome up to 'fate'. Up to the 'whims of luck'.
No, she gets it. God IS in control. He isn't some helpless old man sitting out on a rock a billion light years away. HE IS, and cares for HIS people. HE might indeed take us out to the woodshed this election - but it HIS will and we know that all that HE does is good. Until then - pray for HIS mercy and HIS blessings.
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
17 This decision is by the decree of the watchers,
And the sentence by the word of the holy ones,
In order that the living may know
That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men,
Gives it to whomever He will,
And sets over it the lowest of men. -Daniel 4:17
I wonder how we got that idea.
God forbid we lose, but I am starting to give SERIOUS consideration to moving to Alaska.
We are so screwed.
The guy doesn’t know when talking about God it should be His, not his. Capital H!
I know exactly what prayer warriors are. A bunc of ‘em were praying for me during a heart attack thanks to my cousin. I’m still here! And by the way, it’s not just pentacostals who have prayer warriors.
It’s so uplifting to know we’ve got a VEEP candidate who believes so strongly. And I’ll bet she let McCain know that when he vetted her, too. And it’ll be wonderful when this woman is VEEP and later PRESIDENT.
