TODAY’S BRIEFING

VANTAGE POINT DEVOTIONAL

  • Saturday, January 3

    President Donald Trump is withdrawing National Guard troops from Chicago, Illinois, Portland, Oregon, and Los Angeles, California, after the Supreme Court preliminarily found that he lacked authority to do so, specifically in Chicago.

    The court stated, “At this preliminary stage, the Government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois.”

    An appellate court already found that the executive branch is allowed to deploy the National Guard in the District of Columbia. Troops have also been deployed to Memphis, Tennessee, and New Orleans, Louisiana.

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For discernment for President Trump and federal law enforcement as they assess the rates of crime around the nation.
    • For the justices of the Supreme Court as they hear and rule on challenges to the president’s authority.
    • For the president and members of his Cabinet as they implement reforms and update policies nationwide.

  • A Holy Experiment

    Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.  – 1 Chronicles 29:11

    King Charles II granted 29 million acres to William Penn, a writer who became a member of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) at the age of 22. Penn wanted to make his colony, “Pennsylvania,” a “holy experiment” where Christians of different denominations who were persecuted for their faith in Europe could flee for refuge and live together. While most countries demanded that citizens believe as the government dictated, this colony allowed Christians, Jews, and others who believed in God to live together in religious toleration. On January 1, 1681, Penn declared that he would, “Make and establish such laws as shall best preserve true Christian and civil liberty, in all opposition to all unchristian… practices.” For example, Quakers, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Baptists, Moravians, Mennonites, Amish, Catholics, and Jews lived together in “Philadelphia,” the “city of brotherly love.”

    Pennsylvania’s first legislative act, “The Great Law of Pennsylvania,” stated: “No person who shall confess and acknowledge one Almighty God to be the Creator, Upholder and Ruler of the World shall in any case be molested or prejudiced for his, or her Conscientious persuasion or practice but shall freely and fully enjoy his or her Christian Liberty without any interruption.”

    Philadelphia was where the Continental Congress met, the Declaration of Independence was signed, the U.S. Constitution was written, and it temporarily served as the nation’s first capital. Due to Penn’s perseverance for religious freedom, many churches were established, and the Lord has been worshiped across that state for hundreds of years.

    So, as you worship your majestic Lord today, and the nation prepares for its 250th anniversary this year, pray that the public servants of the United States will also acknowledge the King of kings and act to protect priceless religious liberty in this nation.

    Today’s Verse: 1 Chronicles 29:11

    Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.

    And they sang a new song, saying,

    “Worthy are you to take the scroll
        and to open its seals,
    for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
        from every tribe and language and people and nation,
    10 and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
        and they shall reign on the earth.”

    11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice,

    “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
    to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might
    and honor and glory and blessing!”

    13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,

    “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
    be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”

    14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
