Qualifications


May we all join in prayer for tomorrow's election. The only way to restore morals and righteousness in America is to elect godly people to positions of authority. Proverbs 29:2 tells us; With good men in authority, the people rejoice; but with the wicked in power, they groan” .
The Word of God gives us the basic qualifications of a good
candidate. ‘’Find some capable, godly, honest men who hate
bribes, and… let these men be responsible to serve the 
people with justice at all times” (Exodus 18:21-22).
The six qualifications listed in this passage are:
1. A demonstrated capability in managing business
2. Godliness - spiritual maturity
3. Honesty
4. Integrity
5. Industriousness
6. Justice
May we apply the God-given standards carefully and prayerfully in selecting our candidate.

Amen?
