Walking the Point

“…the Philistines have invaded the land.”  1    Samuel 23:27

When leaders are outside the will of God they open up their nation, and its citizens, to all kinds of evil.

Saul was so consumed with destroying David that he neglected to govern properly. He forfeited his right to rule even though the new king had yet to take the throne, because God wasn’t finished schooling him yet. Saul knew he was done for, but it didn’t deter him from attempting to eliminate David once and for all (1 Samuel 15:28).

We know from the story in 1 Samuel 23 that God providentially intervened and protected David through this attack, but the fact remains there was a huge leadership void that allowed the enemy to enter unmolested.

The present policies of the Obama Administration could be opening up Americans to more violence and bloodshed. Recently, in Kaufman County Texas the district attorney and his wife were found murdered in their home. Preliminary reports indicate the door to the home was forced and the pair was shot execution style. Their killings followed the shooting death of one of the man’s assistant prosecutor’s in January, and law enforcement sources believe all were targeted.

Mainstream media has been trying pin the crime on the Aryan Brotherhood, a white supremacist group – and they may be right. However, many officers suspect Mexican Drug cartels are responsible because of the similar trail of violence they left throughout Mexico. One theory is that the AB could be working in concert with the Cartels, too.

President Obama has done nothing to secure our borders, has released hundreds of illegal immigrants and blamed it on budget cuts, failed to enforce immigration laws, while dispatching his attorney general to sue states that do. Think of that for a moment. The federal government is using your tax money against states who are protecting their residents from violent criminals that have entered the country illegally.

Fast and Furious was conceived to “encourage and even order American gun shops to sell guns — against the store owners’ better judgment — to “straw” purchasers who were funneling guns to Mexican drug gangs.” (1)

Many believe the real intent was “designed to manufacture evidence for tightening gun control legislation” and in the process caused the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and many citizens in Mexico.

Meanwhile, North Korea backed by China, is threatening to nuke us. The Arab Spring is blowing up in Obama’s face, Iran is supplying Islamic radicals with weaponry, while our president and politicians at all levels are out to destroy the 2nd Amendment.

We have an untested Administration given the fact that Secretary of State John Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel are new to their posts, while the president, the citizen of the world, has been in campaign mode since taking office.

Shouldn’t our leaders should be more concerned about weapons in the hands of our enemies rather than how many rounds you have in your mag? I think so.
