The Urgency of God’s Politics

The Return of the King by J. R.R. Tolkien is a great book and movie. It is a classic story of good against evil. In the book (and movie) Aragorn needs help so…

Aragorn travels to the cave of the dead; recruiting the Army of the Dead with the promise to release them from their curse once they fulfill their oath to Isildur. Aragorn arrives with the Army of the Dead; they overcome the Orcs and win the battle. The Dead are released from their curse.

It is not so uncommon than what is going on today. America needs assistance or it will fall but only God can do this. God always offers a way out for His people and the nation they live in. God is interested in turning whole nations around not just communities. Who will answer His call to do this, “What say you?”

There is an urgency that accompanies the Politics of God. The choice is simple, either God’s Politics or political & religion political solutions. Too often elected officials and church leaders seek political solutions today, just as it was in the time of Christ. But, God is waiting for you! “What say you?” Will you promote the politics of God? The Gospel of Christ is not enough! It will take signs, miracles and healings at every level and type for a nation to turn around.

God’s politics required the fulfillment and acceptance of the Kingdom of God—righteousness, joy and peace in the Holy Spirit. God’s politics come with a fight in heaven and earth. “Everything will be shaken,” God says, but God wants you to stand strong during this fight between darkness and light. (One can read all the Ouch articles in my blog, wwjwmtd.com. to understand the purposes of God.)

I know this has been said before and we have seen this happen in America during its history, but we are indeed at a ‘cross-roads’ again. God is asking us, "Who will you serve and believe in?” The great failure today would be that ‘no one in the church bringing God’s Politics into the public arena’. Who will take the challenge? Who will be bold enough to challenge and offer hope to today’s leaders and the general public? Do not leave this task up to your priest or pastor. Do not leave this up to your local community organizations. Do not leave this to someone else—“What say you?”

I know you are a sinner, you lack confidence, and you have failed God in the past, just like the Army of the Dead. Do not let your past dictate your future and America’s future. Challenge leaders to make decisions based on the Will of God! Will you be bold and respond to the urgency of God? It is up to you to bring the politics and wonders of God into America’s political and religious institutions. “What say you?”
