Appoint us a King

"And said to him, Behold, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint us a king to rule over us like all the other nations." 1 Samuel 8:5 AMP. There really is no difference today. The people will vote in the man or woman they see fit for the job, and also according to what they desire. Just as back in Samuel's day, the people want their way not God's way. They desired to be like the other nations who were all about the works of the flesh and not of the Spirit. The Lord let them have what they wanted. He also let them know what the king was going to do as a leader of their country. God has warned us so many times, and regrettably many don't listen. No matter who is in office over our countries, it's our job as Christians to keep the fire of God's Spirit moving in our cities, towns, and our own homes. We have to vote "no" to the flesh and "yes" to the Holy Spirit. Remember the devil has his foot in just about everything around us. We need to be watchful and ready for the return of Christ, which can be any day. Gird up your loins, and praise the Lord for all He is doing. God Bless You.
