Blessing That Leads to Blessing
God is not just concerned with what Christians will do at the ballot box, but who Christians will be. Not one human heart has ever been transformed by the outcome of an election. Heart transformation only comes about by the grace of God at work through the Spirit filled and sanctified church. We will never win hearts for the Kingdom of God by how we vote. We can only win hearts by how we live.

Embodying Kingdom Values
The church is the physical embodiment of Jesus Christ in the world by the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit. Peter refers to its individual members as “temporary residents and foreigners” who are in the world, but not of the world. As such, they are called to not only live by, but embody, the values of the greater Kingdom of God as secondary citizens of the kingdoms of the world.

Trusting the God of Providence
The reaction of the church in Acts to the growing tension and hostility it faced in the public sphere was to pray. Their prayer centered on the sovereign God of providence, superintending his world. It acknowledged not only who he is but that they too had a part to play. Their prayer desired before and above all else that his will be done and that he alone be glorified through every dimension of their lives. That’s the kind of prayer that shakes the ground.
