Hello, thank you for joining me today for Give Him 15.

The title of our post today is A Time Sensitive Request.

God wasted no time before introducing the all-important concept of government in Scripture,

doing so in the very first chapter.

Genesis 1, 26 to 28.

Government is vital, whether it be in a home, city, nation, or any other grouping of people,

God's intent for government was that it served people by providing protection,

covering, instruction, justice, appropriate, and loving discipline, peace, and more.

I give several references. Righteous rule or government is God's primary method of

releasing these necessary actions and outcomes on earth. Proverbs 29, verse 2, tells us that this

brings joy to people.

When it does not occur, the result is mourning.

No wonder he told us to pray first for those in government.

1 Timothy 2, 1 to 4.

The Hebrew word used for mourn in Proverbs 292, which occurs when the wicked rule is a strong word.

Anak means not only to mourn, but to do so by moaning and weeping, gasping.

Proverbs 1434 adds that the sin these unrighteous rulers produce

causes shame and disgrace to a nation. The ungodly element in America's government has brought

disgrace and mourning by believing it has the right to kill babies in the womb,

approve the selling of the aborted baby's body parts.

Are you gasping yet?

Allow babies born alive during failed abortions to lie unattended until they die.
