A Message To The Conservative In These Trying Days

In these days of ever-growing Government, there is a great burden on the hearts of conservatives from the impact on our culture and society. All we could use to do was to hope that true Conservative leadership and policies to be return to our land. That optimistic dream has been smashed in light of the current election results and the GOP's marginalizing of true conservatives. There is hardly any Conservative leadership in Washington and the few who do stand up and raise their voices are slandered and beaten down by the Mainstream Leftist Media, the socially dependent lawless masses and are abandoned by the Republican Party. With the near total erosion of moral laws and absolutes and the dominance of moral relativism the effects are felt everywhere with seemingly no end is in sight. My friend's what is a Conservative to do in such days? Are we to place are trust in the optimistic delusional hopes and vain pep talks of the voices in the new media? God forbid my dear friends. The jig is up my friends and tragically countless conservatives have given themselves over to delusional hopes and dreams that cannot ever come to be. My friend, in the midst of the desperation and panic I would like to direct your attention away from the political and social problems that plague are day and that are so prevalent and point you to Almighty God and His Word!

1.) Look to and Seek The Lord!

"Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else (Isaiah 45:22). And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. And I will be found of you, saith the LORD…" (Jeremiah 29:13-14).

2.) Have Faith in Almighty God and His Word!

"Have Faith in God (Mark 11:22). and But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him" (Hebrews 11:6).

3.) Place your Hope and Expectations in Almighty God for both Time and Eternity! 

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones(Proverbs 3:5-8). And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28).

The following question needs to be asked by liberals and conservatives but mostly by conservatives: Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior as taught in the Holy Scriptures? Our moral virtues and conservative ideologies, no matter how good and noble, are not good enough for ETERNITY. To gain entrance into Heaven, we cannot and must not trust in our own goodness, but only in the righteousness that is found in Jesus Christ alone. The Bible states, "For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth" (Romans 10:2-4).

The most important question one needs to ask themselves today is not, "What about our country?" but this, "Do I have Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS that is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ?"

The most important question one needs to ask themselves today is not, "What about our country?" but this, "Do I have Almighty God's RIGHTEOUSNESS that is only found in the Lord Jesus Christ?" The answer to this SOBERING REALITY and QUESTION will determine one's own destiny for all ETERNITY. In these very difficult days may you redirect your hopeless hope for the future from Washington D.C. to the very ETERNAL Throne-Room of Heaven, (i.e., in the direction of Almighty God and His Word). It is there in Almighty God's Word that you as an individual will find ALL the answers to your most dire questions and personal remedies for your lost estate (John 3:16-17, 36, Acts 16:29-31). May you see the BIG ETERNAL PICTURE for indeed it will set you FREE (John 8:32-36)! May it be even so this day in your life my friend,

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! Will you be ready?
