God has a strategy and solution from Heaven for South Africa at this time!
South Africa is one of the only countries in the world that have a Christian political party founded on Godly principles, without compromise – the ACDP. In past years, one would be less blatant about one’s political views, however, South Africa is facing such a crisis, if we all continue private and silent, voting according to personal preference, we will still end up with a fragmented government with our Christian votes spread thinly over a variety of parties, diluting the strength of our Christian influence, vote, and presence in government.
There is a clear pattern throughout history – the freedom and safety of Christians are directly linked to the governing body of that time. As a Christian nation, will we so recklessly hand our nation over to an ungodly system, or will we be wise enough to perceive the real battle at present and our position and call in it? Will we remember and understand that the Lord doesn’t need the multitudes to win the battle? He needs pure, devoted, faith-filled children who trust undoubtedly in Him, knowing that He is the One who delivers and saves, establishes and blesses those who fear Him.
It’s not about casting our lots with the best opposition party, whilst turning a blind eye to evil policies that bring a curse on our nation. It’s about making our cross and aligning ourselves with the policies, beliefs, and values of a party that is established on Godly Principles, releasing God’s blessing and favour upon our land. We need the Daniels in government, will you vote them in? They are your voice in government… they speak on your behalf and fight for your freedom and safety.
Just as God gave Gideon a blueprint download of how to win the battle, He is giving us a practical strategy to build our nation for His Glory, releasing His blessing upon our beautiful nation. Sometimes we pray, trusting that He will establish His Will in our lives, but neglect to hear the instructions needed to actually inherit that which we are trusting for. Let’s recognize our opportunity and be bold and courageous to take our place in this battle, being the Deborahs and Davids of our generation.
Psalm 33
The Steadfast Love of the LORD
1Shout for joy in the LORD, O you righteous!
Praise befits the upright.
2Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre;
make melody to him with the harp of ten strings!
3Sing to him a new song;
play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts.4For the word of the LORD is upright,
and all his work is done in faithfulness.
5He loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of the steadfast love of the LORD.6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made,
and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
7He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap;
he puts the deeps in storehouses.8Let all the earth fear the LORD;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
9For he spoke, and it came to be;
he commanded, and it stood firm.10The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
he frustrates the plans of the peoples.
11The counsel of the LORD stands forever,
the plans of his heart to all generations.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD,
the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!13The LORD looks down from heaven;
he sees all the children of man;
14from where he sits enthroned he looks out
on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15he who fashions the hearts of them all
and observes all their deeds.
16The king is not saved by his great army;
a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.
17The war horse is a false hope for salvation,
and by its great might it cannot rescue.18Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love,
19that he may deliver their soul from death
and keep them alive in famine.20Our soul waits for the LORD;
he is our help and our shield.
21For our heart is glad in him,
because we trust in his holy name.
22Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us,
even as we hope in you.
