Does God intervene with POLITICS?

Question

Hear me out now. In the Bible, God would intervene and lead countries to greatness, but he can also let the country have a downfall. Here's my theory, meant to disrespect no one. On a regular basis, Conservatives consider more religious beliefs in politics dealing with ethical laws, more than Liberals do, usually. So, since we've taken God out of so much, maybe he's gonna let us elect a Liberal president, so we can fall flat on our faces, because he wants everyone to honor Him in everything they do? It's just a THEORY, not attempting to make anyone mad!! Thanks for your answers in advance. :)

NO mythology.
This question is...
NOT for ATHIESTS!

Answer 1

Sure He intervenes in politics. It's all throughout the Scriptures where God casts down one regime and raises up another. As to what God might or might not do in this country, if you care about it you need to get down on your knees and pray for his mercy, and that He would cause the fire of true Christ revival to burn across this nation and turn us from our sins and from being wise in our own eyes, in Jesus' name, amen!

2 Chronicles 7:13 When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among my people, 14 if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Answer 2

The mechanism seems a little quirky. America has a self-professed "Christian" president who seems intent on enriching the rich, disempowering the powerless, and war for its own sake. And so far, he and his handlers have successfully turned out the conservative, evangelical Christian vote on only a few, very narrow moral issues, abortion/stem-cell research and gay marriage, ignoring the massive and growing social inustice issues. But since his team doesn't seem to be delivering on those core issues, many evangelicals are thinking about skipping the next election. So how, under your theory, does God "lead a country to greatness"?

Answer 3

When people explicitly tried to get Jesus to intervene in the political arena, he flat-out refused. "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's." God cares primarily about the character you develop, the kind of person you become. And that is really irrelevant to the political situation you live in. Jesus declared that the Kingdom of God is already here - it's present in the hearts and lives of individuals who do his will and Love God with all their heart, soul and strength, and Love their neighbor as themselves. Do you REALLY think it matters that much - in the big picture - whether we have a Liberal or Conservative president? How does that change the kind of person you are? How does it affect whether you're showing love to people around you?

Peace to you.

God is not interested in politics, but He DOES honor those who honor Him.
Following are some verses you might consider as an answer to your question.

Chron. 7:13-14

Answer 7

maximum think of that 666 skill the devil whilst in actuality it stands for international government, the 666 is stamped on the chest of the wild beast(the logo for international government). The scriptures say that the wild beast and the fake prophet are solid in to the symbolic lake of hearth. we are additionally informed that faux faith the symbolic Babylon the excellent, a harlot alongside with international government and all wickedness is going to be destroyed throughout the time of Armageddon. making use of history of Bible situations as rationalization for conflict at present could be a faux reasoning, Dan 2:40 4 shows that God has set up a Kingdom which will destroy all different Kingdoms, we as Christians are concern of this Kingdom the place Christ is our King, we shop faraway from the Kingdoms of this international, they're controlled by devil, undergo in strategies that devil offered the Kingdoms of this international to Jesus if Jesus might do merely one act of worship to him, devil might desire to in basic terms furnish what he controls. experience all governments are set up for the income of administration over guy and ran by devil the devil why might any actual Christian kill their fellow guy because of the fact the government tells them to. All wars that have been fought have produced guy killing people who're of an analogous concept, it is the artwork of devil, it quite is why we are informed to no longer touch the unclean factor and to get out of fake faith(Rev 18:4). actual Christians won't kill interior the call of government, actual Christians stick to what Mark 12:31 says, we like our neighbor as ourselves. the three statements you quoted are what actual Christians have faith and in case you want to discover the "in basic terms" actual Christians then seek for the only that has no longer something to do with conflict, they gained't kill nor will they artwork in any ingredient that contributes to any conflict attempt.

Answer 8

Yes. Who was it that said "all men must be ruled from within or without; from within by the Bible, and if they will not; from without by the bayonet."
Religion/God/Politics/Morals are inextriably intertwined. Whether you agree with the politics/religion of Adolph Hitler or Dr. Billy Graham, you will vote your religion or lack of it.
Who said "all that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing?"
To quote Benjamin Franklin--"If a sparrow cannot fall from its nest without His knowledge, how can an empire rise without his blessing?"
When Nehemiah prayed and asked for God's protection in rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, he stood up and posted a guard. (Nehemiah Chapter 4)
The price of Liberty is Eternal Vigilance; and we exercise this in the ballot box; so that we don't have to reach for the bullet box.
Don't get me wrong; I'm not an anarchist; I'm a Christian. I firmly believe we have a Godly responsibility to VOTE. How many God-fearing men have paid for that right for us in blood? And with our responsiblilty to vote, is our responsibilty to vote Godly men into Office.

And I also firmly believe that IF MY PEOPLE, WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME, WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND I WILL HEAL THEIR LAND.

Either God intervenes in politics, or he is a liar. May God have mercy on America. We are currently sacrificing babies to the god of promiscuity. Didn't Thomas Jefferson say "I tremble for my Country, when I realize that God is just?"

Edit:
I agree with your theory, I just want to be wrong.
