Send us a textThe Good King14 Common sense and success belong to me. Insight and strength are mine.15 Because of me, kings reign, and rulers make just decrees.Solomon, who wrote the Book of Proverbs, was a king. He knew that he was responsible for many people. When he was young, he wanted to be a good king. He studied wisdom so that he would rule wisely. All rulers and leaders can learn from him.A king should not use his power to steal money from other people. His people should not suffer so that he can have fun. He should care about the people. He should rule them fairly. His laws should be fair. He should use his power carefully. Everyone who has responsibility for other people should think about this. Employers, rulers and judges need God’s wisdom. Church leaders also need God’s wisdom.Proverbs states that God created governments so that therulers will decree justice for the people. There was a time whenAmerica’s political leaders would selflessly try to live up to beingGod’s agents for the good of the people.The Creator can handle power since he has soundknowledge and understanding. Power has a particular corruptingpower on humans.Unfortunately, today many of our political leaders areselfish and greedy, and try to amass personal power and moneyinstead of being God’s agents for good.Pray for our political leaders, that they will receive Godlycounsel and will have to courage to act upon that counsel.Contemplate: Do you pray that God will zappoliticians of the other party, or do you pray God will revealhimself to “those politicians” that they may come to know and dowhat is right?
