Selecting Men of Integrity 00:03:06
Why do we support this president?
And why did we take a stand on this deal?
For us, you know, being a leading voice on the issue of immigration and, you know, worked with the last previous, the last three previous administrations on this issue and so forth, we were like, we put out, you know, over six million voter guides and immigration wasn't on it.
So you can imagine the hit, the heat, and the hit we're about to take because you should have that on there.
But for us, it was about the Supreme Court.
Because if we wanted to see revival, we need to take the courts.
God, I want to read this scripture in Isaiah 126.
It says, and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counselors as at the beginning.
Afterward, thou shalt be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
God says, if you want to see revival in America, I need the Supreme Court.
That's right.
And I was like, it don't matter.
They can call me what they want to call me.
They can throw me under the bus.
They can say whatever it is they want to say.
But we're going after this court, and we already know where she stands on this, and we know where he stands on this.
And you realize there is an anointing on this man.
Okay, there's no other way of doing it.
Because here's the thing: it's not about being a Christian.
It's about having the fear of the Lord.
Okay?
King David, we wouldn't have voted for King David.
Because if I would have put King David on a voter guide, he would have failed.
That's right.
But God called him a man after my own heart.
Amen.
And he raised this man up that was a murder, killer, adulterer.
I mean, the list goes on.
I could put him side by side with the president.
Okay, they look pretty identical on a voter guide.
Okay.
And so, and I mean, so from that standpoint, though, but God called him out.
God called him out and he didn't check with us.
Right.
Okay, because the prophet was like picking everybody else but King David.
Kind of like the church.
We were picking everybody else but this and this one.
Why?
Because God sees the heart.
Yes, he does.
God knows what needs to take place.
And when God began to, we know the story of Moses and Jethro when he was being overwhelmed.
And God said, select from among you able men that fear the Lord.
He was not Christian men.
That men that are able and have the fear of the Lord on the inside.
Hate bribery, hate covetousness.
Okay, so when he said, I'm not taking, I'm doing my own money.
I'm doing my own stuff.
He began to feel the criteria of Exodus 18, 21, which God says, this is the model I use to elect people, to select people.
The model was being placed before us.
And if we get caught up in the hype and in the media and we get out of biblical principles, that's what this whole thing is about.
What does the Bible say?
And even if it shakes up my psyche, I still got to do the book.
Can't Stand the Tweets 00:00:59
And if I do the book, God will bless my nation.
And that's why we had to say it's going to have to be the courts.
And when we did, God moved the army.
God moved the body of Christ, white, black, Asian, Hispanic.
They said, okay, we get it now.
And they began to move to a sound of the spirit that even though I don't get it, I can't stand the tweets.
I can't stand this or what he's done, his storyline, his history.
It doesn't matter.
He's been anointed by God for this hour.
And so let's quit shaking and baking.
Let's get busy and let's get this man elected.
And that's what took place in 2016.
And now it's our turn again to elect godly leaders in this midterm in 2018.
Because if not, I'm telling you, this thing could shift again.
And we cannot get apathetic.
We can't rest on our laurels and say, hey, we're okay.
We got a victory.
No, it's not over.
It's only the beginning.
Let's seize the moment in 2018 as well.
