Giving Honor to Whom Honor is Due (Rom 13:1-2, 5-7)

“Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves. Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience’ sake. For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Render to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.”

[Cheryl "The Earthly Angel"]

Linda, you do realize why the US has the Electoral College. This is to be fair with all voters in the US. Example Ca. may have 38 million voters and Louisiana may have 5 million voters. You take several of these larger states on East and West coast that have large populations and the states with smaller populations will not have a chance to be represented. The Electoral College is a body of electors established by the United States Constitution, constituted every four years for the sole purpose of electing the president and vice president of the United States. The Electoral College consists of 538 electors, and an absolute majority of 270 electoral votes is required to win an election. A state's number of electors equals the number of representatives plus two electors for both senators the state has in the United States Congress. The number of representatives is based on the respective populations, determined every 10 years by the United States Census.

Our Country (USA) is in need of serious Pray! There are many devious people that are trying to destroy our country. Take the top 16 people in the FBI having been removed after Plotting to remove a Pres. before he was in office. Also, the Head of the CIA. The Hateful Squad of five congresswoman. Some of the deceitful actions from the previous administration members that lied to us over and over again. Hillary Clinton supported the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Hillary Rodham Clinton. She could have said NO. The Clinton foundation made nearly 230 Million dollars off the backs of the American People. (Pay to Play) List goes on why this country needs to clean shop (swamp) and we must pray for good leadership. Don't forget the news media and Hollow weird groups that spits out so much hatred towards the Pres. Trump and American people for not agreeing with them. There is no respect for current Pres. of US. We may not have to like or love everything that is sad or done by the current administration, but as God Loving People we should give them the respect for trying to improve our lives and saving our country. God wants us to pray. We need to pray for each other, for our country, and for our leadership to continue to bring us together in Peace. You and Intercessor are both good leaders. You both are open to speak and help with someone needs council, I have watched each of you touch someone's heart when in pain. Let us put our difference down and pray together. Let us call upon the Holy Spirit to bring us peace, wisdom, hope, faith, and love. Come Holy Spirit and fill the Hearts of your Faithful Kindle in them the Fire of your Love. Lay your hands on the United States & us and Heal with your Love Lord. Amen

My loving thoughts and prayers are with both of you!

I used to take the bait and "fight back" against the Trump haters, but as it gets closer to November,I'm more like,well,it's a better blow to them if Trump wipes out that old fool Joe Biden.An incumbent president, especially in time of a national crisis, the odds usually don't favor them being voted out.Also, Biden is confused, he gets mixed up what city he's in ,etc.{and not once, a lot}That's all we need in a time of crisis.But again the proof is in the pudding, November...

Thank You and that is what I am here for. I don't hate Trump. I don't like a lot of the things he has done. I watch him on TV daily (enough said). I pray for him if he is a Christian that he will allow God to change his heart and stop acting in so many ungodly ways. And if he is not a Christian, I pray he will truly give his life to God, accept Jesus as his Savior and Lord, and live his life to please God. That is my prayer for Trump. And I pray the prayer below ofter over his life and my life.

Let Us All Pray And Continue To Pray: God I ask You in Jesus' name cleanse President Trump, myself, and the writer of this prayer of anything and everything that breaks Your heart! Wash us thoroughly from all immorality and cleanse us from all our sins. Create in each of us a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within us. Let us only live our lives for God's glory, approval, and applause. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

I pray we would spend half as much time looking at China’s christian-killing government that falsifies the condition of the virus, does not allow free speech or free religion and supports the media in our country! I ask God gives discernment as to why the spirit of antichrist hates the constitution, hates The U.S. and hates Trump. Thankfully most God-fearing Christians that have a Bible plan to start in Genesis and end in Revelation once a year have no problem understanding what’s going on. I ask for that plan to spread, for intercessors for America to be raised up and for us to not bite the apple in Jesus’ Name

Unfortunately,Trump Derangement Syndrome warps their minds so they can't see the forest for the trees.{Also, the fact that they're sore losers because they lost the election when they were so smug they would win it.}
