We are now hopeful that our newly elected president was assigned for a purpose by God to bring the wicked oppressors to justice and much of the disgusting display of heinous acts brought to an end. Maybe the out-of-control spending will stop, the prices of goods and services will become affordable again, the poison will be removed from our food, the pharmaceutical companies will be controlled, and the depressed state of our country will become a happy existence again. However, we must continue to pray that his speaking the name of Jesus is the truth and that he is not part of the evil plot to bring about the new world order.

I can’t make this stuff up. The following paragraph came from Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible for James 5. It’s almost eerie how this came up perfectly and right on time. If you don’t think God is in control of our everyday lives, read this:

“The Lord of hosts, who has all ranks of beings and creatures at his disposal, and who sets all in their several places, hears the oppressed when they cry by reason of the cruelty or injustice of the oppressor, and he will give orders to some of those hosts that are under him (angels, devils, storms, distempers, or the like) to avenge the wrongs done to those who are dealt with unrighteously and unmercifully. Take heed of this sin of defrauding and oppressing, and avoid the very appearances of it.”

Those of us who trust in the Lord are a blessed people; he will see us through to the end and protect us from the bad guys.

Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. James 5:7-8
