Bible Verses About The Presidential Election
God’s Sovereignty in Leadership
As we enter the presidential election, we may feel uncertain about the future and the leaders we choose. However, the Bible reminds us that God is ultimately in control of all authorities. God’s sovereignty extends over every leader and ruler, and we can trust that He establishes governments for His purposes. In Romans 13:1, we learn that every authority is established by God. This means that we are to respect and pray for our leaders, regardless of their personal beliefs or actions. Recognizing the divine hand in leadership can help us remain hopeful and committed to prayer during these times.
