Enduring to the end ! A look at the lessons of the presidential election of 2024

 Former president Donald Trump has gained victory in the presidential election. Many around the nation and the world are shocked and astonished at the extraordinary success.

How can a man who left Washington in disgrace in the eyes of many in January 2021 return to the highest office in the land ?

Many thought at that time that Mr Trump was politically done and burried , here we are with him as the president elect .


How did Mr Trump do it ? He had a goal, the presidency and he persevered until the very end. Mr Trump was undeterred and unrelenting. He had set his face like flint and basically said no matter what comes my way, I will persevere until the very end. I remember reading an article after some negative event and Mr Trump saying he is as motivated as ever to run to race and win the biggest political prize in the world . 


On the way to his presidential election triumph Mr Trump faced lawsuits, criminal cases, assassinations attempts,  being abandoned by many in his own party after the  January 6 debacle, blamed for Republican losses in the 2022 congressional elections and yet he persevered until the very end and has achieved the greatest political comeback in the history of this country. Thought to be politically dead and has returned stronger than ever, with more power than before because he persevered to the end .

We can say what we want about president Trump, but if we as Christians were as persevering as he was to the presidency we will for certain inherit heaven.

Christians nowdays have no persevering faith, we are easily bogged down, easily discouraged.  At the slighest adversity we want to quit the faith, we make excuses as to why we shouldn't keep going. And yet God is looking for " soldiers" who will fight the good fight of faith . The Christian life is akin to a political campaign, a race and only those " who overcome will get to seat with Jesus on His throne as He overcame and have sat down with His Father on His throne." Book of revelation 

As Christians, we are called to persevere no matter what. Sickness comes ? Persevere. Family problems? Persevere. Immigration problems? Persevere. Financial problems? Persevere. Mental health issues? Persevere. Sin problems ? Persevere in Christ until the very end, the glorious end.

Like president Trump, as Christians we should let nothing, no difficulties, no power, no angels, no depth, no height to separate us from the love of God. 


Nothing less than persevering faith will take us to the greatest prize in the universe, the crown of life. The more we overcome obstacles through the power of God, the stronger we will become and the more certain our victory in the end. Yes, we will face dark days, yes we will have mountains to climb, sins to struggle with, negative thoughts to overcome,  prisons to come out of, Satan's bullets to escape, but the more the difficulties, the closer we should draw to  Christ and as we abide in His love, He will make us His elect, a wonder to the universe, the greatest comeback story in the universe. From sin to righteousness, from sinner to saint! Let us persevere until the very end. God bless

The sanctuary in Heaven

Let them construct a sanctuary for Me, that I may dwell among them. 9 "According to all that I am going to show you, as the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furniture. Exodus 25:8,9 God told Moses to build him a sanctuary according to the pattern that he sees. Does that mean God created a blue print for him or is it a pattern of something in heaven? Copy of the True Tabernacle The sanctuary that they built in the wilderness is a copy of the one that is in heaven. Yes there is a sanctuary in heaven. So if there is a sanctuary in heaven , does that mean there is a High Priest also? They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." Hebrews 8:5

True Riches

 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? (Luke 16:11) KJV New International Version So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? Would you want to be rich ? You may so know ,but truth is the majority of humankind would prefer to be rich then poor. And yet only a few people are rich while the rest are in the middle class or poor. Question? Which one would you rather be? 1. A farmer  2. A beggar I know the answer already. All of you would choose to be a farmer. Who in their right mind would want to be a beggar? A farmer provides to society and is a person who has resources; while a beggar, well, just begs and consumes. A farmer works hard to produce and provide, while a beggar waits for resources to be provided to him. One of the reasons rich people are few, is because it requires a lot of efforts to become rich. Supply chains While the beggar is waiti...

When God calls you. The fiery way to God

 Why is my life so hard ? Why are these things happening to me? I pray to God for healing but there's no healing. I pray to God for better finances but no money is forthcoming. I am so tired of these struggles. I am on the verge of given up. I might as live life the way I want to and hope to die soon. Have these thoughts ever come to your mind ? These are thoughts many will encounter as they ascend the mountain of God. For many of us life began good. We had a great time in our youth, we believed in love, we believed that the future was bright, we felt whole as a person. But somewhere along the way harship showed up. An illness, a broken heart, the death of a loved one, broken aspiration sent us into despair and grief. Suddenly life becomes dark and hopeless. But somewhere along the way, we heard the voice of God. We hear someone preached, " come to Jesus and all will be well, come to Jesus and He will give you the desires of your heart." And so we come to Jesus hoping tha...
