President Joe Biden is having an extraordinarily difficult season as the pressure is mounting for him to resign over his obvious physical and cognitive decline.

0:18.4

And the question that everyone is asking is, who has the right to speak into this decision?

0:21.5

Well, first and foremost, it would be his wife and kids and

0:24.6

grandkids. That should be your first wise counsel. Those who are

0:28.6

trustworthy advisors, maybe past presidents, current business leaders some say that as well his

0:37.0

sister and he are very close and she should speak into the situation but I want to

0:40.6

Biden has a pastor I hope he has somebody who prays for him he can confide in they'll open the

1:36.9

scriptures with him and help him find the will of God not just the will of

1:40.8

the Democratic Party not just the will of the electorate not just the will of the Democratic Party, not just the will of the electorate, not just the will of the media pundits, but the will of God.

1:47.6

At the end of the day, if you claim to be a believer, then your highest loyalty is to the Lord Jesus,

1:52.4

and your ultimate goal is to do what is right in his eyes and to glorify him regardless of what other noise there might be.

1:59.0

And I was thinking about it. Pastors get this sacred unique opportunity to be invited into massive
