As God’s people, would you agree one of our greatest challenges is figuring out how to live God honoring lives in the places in our world where our governments are fully opposed to God, God’s Truth, God’s Purposes and even God’s people!
Do you often pray for Christian people who live in such places? Perhaps you live in a place where you still feel reasonably free to worship God, own a Bible and even speak of Jesus, yet probably, if you look closely, you can see significant spiritual shifts happening as influential people, or even your government leaders, seem to be pushing God OUT of your society. Come with me back to Jerusalem in about 722bc and we’ll see it was happening there!
