This past weekend I happened to watch a documentary titled: “The Obama Deception”; which caused me to 
reflect a little deeper on the current financial,social, and more importantly, spiritual condition of the country.
Before moving on, I hope it’s understood by readers that the intentions of posting the link to the video mentioned above is not an endorsement, political statement, nor a call for patriotism over God and faith. I’m also not suggesting that the film is 100% accurate in any of it’s assumptions or that anyone should become occupied with conspiracy theory hunting as a means to finding a solution.
What is suggested, in view of the descent of the country (spiritual,moral,social,financial etc;), is a concern especially for those of the faith that appear to be so wrapped up in their dissatisfaction with the present administration, that they miss seeing the bigger picture (Biblical implications) of the turn of events, this in my opinion due to misplaced ideas and desires to place blame on someone.. anyone.
The sermon below which was forwarded to me via email this morning “connects the dots” so to speak as for how I believe we as Christians are called to view the present situation. Given that the sermon was emailed it could very well be made up, however, in principle I agree with most of the thoughts from this “sermon”. In the final few paragraphs the “preacher” makes reference to the president, of which I’m assuming that the “preacher’s” intentions were not to make any political statement on the pulpit, but rather a plea to his congregation to not put faith in anyone other than Christ; regardless of their political ties, nationality, race,denomination or what have you.
The Spanish philosopher said, "Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
This is a sermon from a church in Virginia …. Genesis 47:13-27
Good morning, brothers and sisters; it’s always a delight to see the hall crowded, and so eager to get into God’s Word. Turn with me in your Bibles, if you will, to the 47th chapter of Genesis; we’ll begin our reading at verse 13, and go through verse 27.
Brother Ray, would you stand and read that great passage for us?…. Thank you for that fine reading, Brother Ray.. So we see that economic hard times fell upon Egypt , and the people turned to the government of Pharaoh to deal with this for them. 
And Pharaoh nationalized the grain harvest, and placed the grain in great storehouses that he had built. So the people brought their money to Pharaoh, like a great tax increase, and gave it all to him willingly in return for grain. And this went on until their money ran out, and they were hungry again.
So when they went to Pharaoh after that, they brought their livestock – their cattle, their horses, their sheep, and their donkey – to barter for grain, and verse 17 says that only took them through the end of that year.
But the famine wasn’t over, was it?
So the next year, the people came before Pharaoh and admitted they had nothing left, except their land and their own lives. "There is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our land. Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for food, and we with our land will be servants to Pharaoh." So they surrendered their homes, their land, and their real estate to Pharaoh’s government, and then sold themselves into slavery to him, in return for grain.
What can we learn from this, brothers and sisters?
That turning to the government instead of to God to be our provider in hard times only leads to slavery? That the only reason government wants to be our provider is to also become our master?
But look how that passage ends! Thus Israel settled in the land of Egypt , in the land of Goshen . And they gained possessions in it, and were fruitful and multiplied greatly." God provided for His people, just as He always has! They didn’t end up giving all their possessions to the government, no, it says they gained possessions!
But I also tell you a great truth today, and an ominous one. We see the same thing happening today – the government today wants to "share the wealth" once again, to take it from us and redistribute it back to us. It wants to take control of healthcare, just as it has taken control of education, and ration it back to us, and when government rations it, then government decides who gets it, and how much, and what kind.
And if we go along with it, and do it willingly, then we will wind up no differently than the people of Egypt did four thousand years ago - as slaves to the government, and as slaves to our leaders.
What Mr. Obama’s government is doing now is no different from what Pharaoh’s government did then, and it will end the same.. And a lot of people like to call Mr. Obama a "Messiah," don’t they? Is he a Messiah? A savior? Didn’t the Egyptians say, after Pharaoh made them his slaves, "You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be servants to Pharaoh"?
Well, I tell you this – I know the Messiah; and Mr. Obama is no Messiah! No, brothers and sisters, if Mr. Obama is a character from the Bible, then he is Pharaoh.
Bow with me in prayer, if you will.
"Lord, You alone are worthy to be served, and we rely on You, and You alone. We confess that the government is not our deliverer, and never rightly will be. We read in the eighth chapter of 1st Samuel, when Samuel warned the people of what a ruler would do, where it says "And in that day you will cry out because of your king, whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the LORD will not answer you in that day." And Lord, we acknowledge that day has come. We cry out to you because of the ruler that we have chosen for ourselves as a nation..Lord, we pray for this nation. We pray for revival, and we pray for deliverance from those who would be our masters. Give us hearts to seek You and hands to serve You, and protect Your people from the atrocities of Pharaoh’s government."
Grace and peace be with you.
