Public Office Holders Should Ask for Help from God

​A man of faith running for public office is often targeted with questions pertaining to his beliefs and how such will affect his job performance. First of all, anyone running for public office would be insane to refuse help from God (1 Kings 9:2-7). But understand this, God is only going to help those who are faithful to Him (Psalm 34:8-17). So, if a President desires help from God, he must be doing what is pleasing to God. There is no way God will bless a President who is passing laws that are in conflict with His word (Proverbs 14:34, 11:11; Psalm 33:10-22; 1 Kings 15:25-26, 16:29-34).

If homosexuality, abortion, and state lotteries are contrary to the laws of God, then no person of faith serving in public office can be in favor of such. A man of faith is to live what he knows is right to God (2 Chronicles 26:3-5). Also the President will have the best interest of the nation in mind if he vetoes bills that establish sinful practices (2 Kings 18:1-8). Our nation is supposed to be a Christian founded upon religious principles. So why do we get angry and suspicious of a person with morals? Could it be most of us have none?
