It there even any such thing as government that is not corrupt, one that follows the wishes of the people who elected and gave them power? I don’t think so.

But God’s Word has something to say about government and we should heed it.

The only good governor is God. The only one who is completely righteous and just is God. The only one to show mercy and be totally honest is God. So, what are we to do since we don’t have a theocracy? We are commanded to pray for our leaders, even the ones whom we consider corrupt and perhaps beyond redemption. Who are we to say that God cannot sway their minds and change their hearts? God put whoever is in power right where they are. Instead of rebelliously cursing them and their ungodly attitude and actions, we are commanded to pray.

I may not approve of the current state of our nation or who is in power, but I will pray, diligently and daily. God is, after all, still in control!
