Who's Your King?


Who's Your King?
Mary Ann Wray




I hate to be a bearer of bad news folks, but an earthly ruler, president or political figure can’t save us now any more than Herod or the Roman Rule could save the Jews in Jesus’ day. Many of the Jews (mainly the spiritual leaders) rejected Jesus because he did not come politically as they hoped. Those Jews who did believe and receive Yeshua as Messiah, understood their greater need. Many of the Gentiles believed in Jesus also, when Paul the Apostle began his missionary work to them after Jesus’ Ascension and personal appearance on the road to Damascus.


Jesus came to save His people (Jew and Gentile alike) from their sins. That’s what we need saved from. That is what has separated us from God and that is what kills. We need to understand that the answer to America’s or any nations’s issues (including our own) are not and will not be found in a political or religious figure. If we maintain that type of mentality, when the False Prophet and Anti-Christ appear on the World Scene promising “peace”, people will be duped into thinking those persons are the answer. They are NOT. They will be wolves in sheep‘s clothing! We need to pray for spiritual discernment and be well schooled in the word of God. Beware!


The answer is the same now as it was then...JESUS Christ and TRUST in His sinless blood atoning sacrifice! Yes, we need to pray for our leaders, our country and its people, and we need to vote responsibly, but let’s stop putting our trust in princes and put our trust in the KING! We Christians need to remember that we have been given the ministry of reconciliation! There are lost souls we need to be reaching with the gospel of Jesus Christ and prayer.


Did't Jesus say that we need to beware of the Leaven of Herod? What is that? It is the teachings which are political in nature, that creep into the house of God and taint the glorious good news. All this type of teaching does is divide people, and create schisms even in the church! Jesus said, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and give to God what is His." Leave politics out of the gospel and watch what God will do!


It’s time to get back to preaching the PURE gospel of Jesus Christ with signs and wonders following. His House is to be a House of Prayer-not debate and political wranglings.Sheep crave still water and pure fodder not the rumbling rushing water of heated political opinions.


“It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.”


Psalms 118:8-9 | KJV
