I avoid the news because it is only meant to stir dissension and after working with lobbyists in the White House back in the day, I know that all politicians are friends. Much of their agenda is the same because they all answer to the same spirit. That spirit requires them to sell their soul for earthly glory. Redemption for them will cost them their lives and result in shunning much like being black-balled from any other secret society or fraternity. The world at large will not discern the same spirit fueling congress and most Christians wont either, its the same reason we have divorce as high as unbelievers, spirits put people together for the sake of alliances and answer to a hierarchy under the law. It can be taught to believers after deliverance but that has to be a personal choice.
Unfortunately our votes have no bearing on who will be in the white house bc that is a natural response to a spiritual problem. We need to fight with our whits, not our fists and pray for our leaders as we would our enemies. Often we pray for our loved ones out of desperation, hoping to see change in them because our emotions are so entwined, like a wife hoping that her husband stops looking at porn while believing it will never happen because history repeats itself. Praying for an enemy however can be easier once we release their future into the hands of God where we no longer give them a second thought. Their evil doings are expected and we find our prayers offer them pity and before we know it we are set free of vindication.
The real struggle is always close to home. So our candidates for President are both friend and foe, exactly what demons are, working on our behalf to blind us to their true nature so we discern only in part, all the while they hate us and long to destroy the Godly pursuit in us and will stop at nothing to do so. Therefore, praying for their personal influence over our lives to be stopped happens through praise and worship of our Savior and King and the blessings over the earthly ones. Daniel 2:21-22
