POLITICAL SALT

Adding spiritual salt to the meat of politics... in the pursuit of good government.

 

"Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned, as it were, with salt,
so that you may know how you should respond to each person."

- Colossians 4:6

This "voice in the desert" is born out of a heart to see Arizona and our nation return to God. Along with friends who join with me to contribute experience and insight in the pursuit of good government, we will address many of the difficult political issues of the day. Through November 7, this will also serve as a blog for "SIEGE I" and "SIEGE II" times of prayer and fasting for good government, restoration and revival for our state and nation.

Serious Business

For God, government is serious business and the Bible includes many serious warnings from God addressed to those who abuse power. God's judgments may not always be immediate, but they are inevitable. "Now therefore, O kings, show discernment; take warning, O judges of the earth" (Psalm 2:10). "Woe to those who enact evil statutes, and to those who constantly record unjust decisions" (Isaiah 10:1). The right of governing is a sacred trust that requires the fear of God (Micah 6:8-9).
