God is not desperate. Everyone knows that feeling of impassioned anxiety, and most have made powerful pleas to God from there. But the reality is there is absolutely nothing in your life that has God worried or anxious. Including politics.
If His goal is for you to become like Him (2 Cor. 3:18, Gal. 2:20, Eph. 4:22–24), then staying hopeless, stressed, and overwhelmed is never His desire for you. Religion may elevate desperation to a fruit of the Spirit, but the Holy Spirit’s goal is for you to be overflowing with the opposite—outrageous love, confident joy, and complete peace.
Your prayers don’t have to be desperate for Him to hear you. Your worship doesn’t have to be desperate for Him to receive it. You don’t have to live in desperation to function. That’s the enemy’s reality, not yours. He lives in diminishing resource, but your life is in Christ, in unending grace and increasing favor.
The success of your life doesn’t depend on choosing a President, but on which reality you’re going to choose to live in—God’s kingdom perspective of righteousness, peace, and joy (Rom. 14:17), or the enemy’s desperate one, fueled by fear, bitterness, and self–pity. You empower the one to which you give the most attention.
“For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet He did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need” (Hebrews 4:15–16).
