How many Christians have prayed and prayed about something and felt like they never got an answer from God? No doubt there have been millions. There are many reasons that people do not get answers to prayer. One of them that is not discussed much is that God expects us to obey Him and use wisdom in our daily lives. God is certainly loving, kind, and 'rich in mercy,' but on the other hand, He is not a dispenser of 'cheap grace,' always responsible to rescue us from the problems we cause for ourselves
The former Vice President is like a Daniel. Let us all remember Daniel.

Remember Daniel 6:18-24 The best way to have a good night, is to keep a good conscience. We are sure of what the king doubted, that the servants of the living God have a Master well able to protect them. See the power of God over the fiercest creatures, and believe his power to restrain the roaring lion that goeth about continually seeking to devour. Daniel was kept perfectly safe, because he believed in his God. Those who boldly and cheerfully trust in God to protect them in the way of duty, shall always find him a present help. Thus the righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead. The short triumph of the wicked will end in their ruin.
The citizens of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts elected a legislature and a Governor, the legislature elected to change the law to replace the vacant seat in the Congress law. The citizens serve the Sovereign God of the Universe. The Constitution was made by the citizens. Let the law serve. Wait for the special election. Do not change the fate and faith of the Nation.

“Lord, I give myself to You, whatever the cost may be. Take every aspect of my life and use me for Your kingdom to glorify Your name. I’m not here on earth to do my own thing, to seek my own fulfillment or my own glory. I’m not here to indulge my desires, to increase my possessions, to impress people, to be popular, to prove I’m somebody important, or to promote myself. I’m not here even to be relevant or successful by human standards. I’m here to please You. To live like this, I yield myself to You, to know You, to worship You, to obey You, and to grow in Your Holy Fear. I’ll do anything that You want me to do, go anywhere You want me to go and say anything that You want me to say. Father, there isn’t any gift that You have for me that I don’t want. If You want to use me in a way that I’m not used to, I yield myself to that. Today I affirm my love for You my God and I choose to live and minister in Your way. I trust You Lord to do that which I cannot do for myself. Teach me, guide me, empower me to fear Your name. In Jesus name, Amen.”

“Abba Father, we are like the rebellious children of Isaiah’s time. We, Your Church, do not want to listen to Your instructions. We are rebellious children, unwilling to listen and to receive Your message for repentance… We do not want to be confronted with Your truths. We reject Your messages; instead, we rely on false teaching of other gods, we live in oppression and fraud and with plans to reject Your teachings. You have been calling us to repentance, but we do not want to have anything to do with it. You long to be gracious and compassionate to Your saints and You are calling us to come back into covenant relationship with Jesus Christ. You are the God of justice, giving blessing to those who depend on You. So through intercessory prayer O God, I ask for forgiveness and plead for revival… Pour out Your Spirit in these last days, O Lord, and revive Your Church! O Lord, speak powerfully to Your church exposing everything that is false, lascivious, and full of greed. O God of compassion, please exercise that compassion and send a mighty Holy Ghost revival to my Church and this nation…”

“Lord, I tearfully ask: Teach me to pray with groanings so that there are earthquakes in hell. Teach me the groanings of the Spirit until angels stand in awe. Teach me Spirit-born intercession that changes history. Teach me the birth pangs of the Holy Ghost until hell-shaking revival is born. Lead me into travail that will hold back divine judgment from the nations for a little season. Let me be a living sacrifice on the altar of prayer, ‘bleeding to bless’, until flood tides of mercy sweep the nations. Lord, break my heart in intercession until my eyes, like those of Jeremiah, are a fountain of tears weeping for the slain of an educated, but spiritually dead people.”
Leonard Ravenhill, “Revival God’s Way”
“O Breath of Life, come sweeping through us,
Revive Thy Church with life and pow’r;
O Breath of Life, come cleanse renew us,
And fit Thy Church to meet this hour.”

"Under the old Persian Empire a few of the nobility were permitted at any time to come in unto the king, and this was thought to be the highest privilege possessed by mortals. You and I, the people of God, have a permit, a passport to come before the throne of heaven at any time we will, and we are encouraged to come there with great boldness; but still let us not forget that it is no mean thing to be a courtier in the courts of heaven and earth, to worship him who made us and sustains us. Truly, when we attempt to pray, we may hear the voice saying out of the excellent glory: "Bow the knee." From all the spirits that behold the face of our Father who is in heaven, even now, I hear a voice which saith, "Oh, come let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; fear before him all the earth." Charles Spurgeon, Throne of Grace (sermon delivered November 19, 1871)

"When you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." Mark 11:24

"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Heb. 4:15,16
If we profess with the loudest voice and the clearest exposition every position of the truth of God except precisely that little point which worldly sins creep in, will set us free. The truth will set you free. Come to Jesus and learn of his love for his creation. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
The so-called term religious right is a misnomer placed on a group of believers' in a sovereign God above all man made religions. They do not hate anyone but pray to free each creation of a loving Father from the sins of this world, enveloping the promise given to them at birth with a hope of a eternity with the Savior of all mankind, Jesus Christ. The world wants to include them in a worldly religion, but they deal with a relationship as St. John describes in 1 John 4 "Perfect Love Casts out fear". Please trust in Jesus and his eternal love in you. All things are possible through God. Our country is a Christian Country. One founding father, a Christian, said we were the last best hope of all mankind. Keep the Faith..........
What is Political Railroading by the President of the United States and the Cambridge Massachusetts Police Department and a Harvard University Professor?
Will the Kennedy, Clinton, Pelosi, Reid, Obama, and Saetoro Political Machine railroad the Police Officer in Cambridge Massachusetts like Paula Jones, Vince Foster, and others?
