Morning by Morning, October 30 - “We Have Our Voice Back!” - The “Speaker of the House” is a Follower of the Word as a Bible-believing Servant of God Who’s Not Backing Down Good morning, Lord Jesus. Take me by my heart and lead me by Your Spirit into all You desire for me to hear and speak today -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. ... “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16-17). A few days ago, the new Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States was installed into office after many challenges. His name is Mike Johnson. And from what I can see, he’s not backing down from his faith in God or his honor of the Bible as the Authority and Plumbline for what is right and true in the decisions of his heart, as he speaks on behalf of the representatives of the people of our nation. His position of “Speaker of the House” is prophetically significant. And the fact that it has taken many challenges for him to be positioned in this spiritually strategic position for such a time as this is no accident, mistake, or coincidence. And neither are the unrelenting attacks already taking place against his character and his faith for taking such a bold stand, with no surrender and no retreat from the authority of Scripture in his life and leadership. In my spirit, I believe it is a prophetic sign of a shifting in the heart of America. Actually, I believe it’s more of an affirmation of the true heart of America that’s been silent for too long but intimidated no more! Come, Holy Spirit. Stir up the true heart of America--the sons and daughters, the men and women who are free and bold to express their faith in You and Your Word as the Standard and Authority for our lives and the life of our nation. Under our Constitution You divinely formed in the minds and hearts of its writers and signatories, we honor and protect the freedom to believe and express any religion or faith. And whatever religion or faith we choose to embrace as the truth, we are free to express it and to live it--whether we’re the Speaker of the House or the leader of our own house. We’re free to declare and never back down from the determination of our hearts, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord” (Joshua 24:15). Congressman Johnson “speaks” for all, but he’s free to be guided by One. From his position of authority, he’s free to be led in his heart and life, and even in his strategic position of leadership in our nation by the One he knows to be the Author of all that is right and true. And You are that One. Your Word is True. Inspired. Inerrant. Infallible. “Alive and active and sharper than any two-edged sword” (Hebrews 4:12). Lord, forgive us for the voices of those who have spoken and led on our behalf in the past who did not believe and honor You or Your Word. Let us be cleansed from all unrighteousness by the Blood of the Lamb according to the Word of God that comes through repentance in our hearts and for our land (1 John 1:9; 2 Chronicles 7:14). Let us be restored and even revived and awakened to move forward in our destiny and in advance of Your Kingdom as “one nation under God.” As I write these words and pray this prayer, I hear in my heart, “We have our voice back!” Yes, Lord! Let it be so! “We have our voice back!” Let us now have ears to hear the Voice of the One who always leads the way into righteousness and truth. As You have said and continue to say, “My sheep hear My Voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
