Our President

I have not said anything about President Obama, because I believe this is who God has destined for this time. We are told to honor the king in scripture and the powers that be are ordained of God. So from that view point I thought to say "If you can't say anything good don't say nothing at all!" However there are few things I would like to say about our president.

First, I would like to say it is a historical moment that we have the first black president. However this is still a racial issue, until it doesn't matter what race our president is. According to his own heritage President Obama is bi-racial having a Caucasian mother and an African father. I'm sure all African Americans feel somewhat vindicated for the plight there ancestors suffered.

This said; let’s go on to my second point. We have a man who is president that is a generic "talker". His campaign was based on very little specifics. He is doing the same thing since coming in the white house. He offers an executive order (which means he is suppose to draft this himself) and signs it, but doesn't know what it included in it. He repeals laws that limit abortion. He has proposed a large spending bill that is suppose to be a stimulus package. Thank God the GOP is sticking together on opposing this one. This is the same old liberal democrat politics and we will see more of this in his remaining time in office. I am not saying President Obama is not a nice, knowledgeable man. However he is not my choice and his policies are bad for America. My children and grandchildren will be paying for all his and this liberal congress policies.

Now, spiritually...He claims to be a Christian, yet part of his heritage is Muslim. By no means am I saying that he is a Muslim, but I feel he may be able to sympathize with this faith. I don't care if it was President Bush, President Obama, or Rev. Billy Graham, the Muslim religion is false doctrine and heresy. Yes, all Muslims have freedom of religion to practice there faith in America, and I have no problem with this. I have the freedom to practice my faith. However, the religion is a religion of hate. I understand not all Muslims are radical or terrorists, but there Holy Book the Koran is instilled with teachings of Jihad and hate. We don't need a sympathizer in the White House. (I really do believe we will see this eventually.)

Lastly, let’s look at the meaning of his 3 names. Barack means a lighting flash. Some have mistakenly have said his name means blessed, this is not true. Hussein means small and handsome. Obama means crooked. I believe some names have great meaning. Is it a coquincidence names means these things. President Obama came on the scene quickly like a flash of lighting. I really believe his presidency will also be a quick one (one term). I also believe he is small in the eyes of people. What I mean by small is that his persona is a common man. However he is far from common, being a community organizer (lobbyist) and Harvard grad. He also has a handsome package. Not just a nice looking gentleman, he also come off with a nice handsome package. He has a beautiful wife and two little girls. He speaks eloquently. He is a good communicator. Yet there is no substance to most things he says. Obama means crooked or bent. I think this sums up President Barack Hussein Obama. He is somewhat bent in his look at America. It is as if a site on gun is bent, even if you aim for the bull’s eye the site will throw you off.

I want you to think of the story of Barack in scripture. He was called of God to lead his chosen people, but would not step up to the challenge. God had to send a woman Deborah to be the judge of Israel and lead the people to victory. (I hope we see a repeat of this story, but our Deborah may have the name "Sarah".) I really believe President Obama is comparable to Barack in scripture. He looks for the approval of someone else. He will not go out and make a decision for himself. Watch his presidency over the next four years and see what I mean.

With all this said, I believe we as Christian are called to pray for President Obama and our government. We want God's perfect will for the United States. This could be a great time of revival for our country. When someone is in office so anti-Christian in there policies we need to stand up by falling to our knees. Now, God may have let us have President Obama to allow this country to see some hard times (especially financially and morally), so we can have a revival. All we can do is pray!

God promised he would pour out his Spirit in these last days. It just pays to be ready. God Bless President Barack Obama and God Bless America. Even So Lord Jesus Come Quickly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
