It was December, 1777.  George Washington’s army filed silently into their winter camp at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.  Washington would tell of the amazing commitment of these men by reporting how you could trace their path by the bloody tracks they were leaving.  A great many of the 11,000 were barefooted; many were nearly naked in this freezing cold.  More than 2,000 would die that winter from lack of food and shelter.  Yet the miracle was—they didn’t leave.  Why?

While it won’t be revealed completely until we stand before the Lord at the Judgment, at least one reason is the praying that George Washington did that winter.  There were different reports by people who said they came unexpectedly upon Washington kneeling in the snow in the woods, earnestly pleading with God for the cause of his nation.  While Washington was a very private person, and not at all given to showy religion, people close to him reported of his consistent devotions to God.  No doubt the last words his mother said to him before he left home to embark on his military career had greatly impacted him.  Mary Washington had Continue reading

When God created Israel’s civil government, He commanded Moses:

“…thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers…” (Exodus 18:21)

Thus, God gives us His qualifications for government servants.  I believe Kentucky Governor, Matt Bevin, has fulfilled these qualifications better than any governor in my lifetime of sixty-nine years.  While certainly not a perfect man, he’s done remarkably well at fulfilling this command.  Only the socialists who hate him scream otherwise:  As if they could put forth a perfect man.

Governor Bevin has proven himself to be an “able” man:  Leading the Kentucky Legislature to draft and pass some eight Pro-Life bills.  No other Kentucky Governor since abortion was “legalized” has Continue reading

Recently three different Pastors told me of disgraceful incidents in which Kentucky Governor, Matt Bevin, had difficulty in speaking to a group because of “hecklers” in the crowd he was addressing.  In one of those incidents, the media reported the Governor just had to leave the stage without being able to say hardly anything.  Another Pastor told me he was saddened and embarrassed by people in his community whose language toward the Governor was certainly not civil, let alone Christian.  But the third experience was almost beyond belief.  At a Pro-Life rally in Frankfort, Kentucky’s Capitol, again there were “hecklers” who rudely spoke up to interrupt the Governor’s remarks.  These “hecklers”, who claimed to be representing the teachers of Kentucky concerning the pension plan crisis here, were asked later why they would interrupt such a solemn gathering, the aim of which was to save children from being murdered in their mother’s womb.  Their weak answer was that they didn’t know it was a Pro-Life rally.  Yet, there were banners and signs all around which made it plain to everyone what this gathering was.  This is simply uncivilized behavior in the civil realm!  I’m only glad to say I do not believe that this kind of behavior is approved of by most of the teachers in this state.

We should have very strong feelings concerning political issues; because they Continue reading
