My political message...

I sent this to several people on my e-mail list but some asked me to put it here on the blog, sooo here it is!

I don’t send political stuff but I thought this was appropriate to send.. I am to blame for everything in it!

“I’M Jack Hollis and I approve this message!!”

Jesus is Lord and His Kingdom will prevail, nevertheless His people should desire a “David” over a “Saul”. Neither was perfect but one was chosen to be predecessor. Now don’t write me something I already know, about how Jesus set us free and how you depend on Him… I know more about that than most people I know do! I still don’t want the wrong man in office for the sake of the unbeliever.

Scripture says that God proved to Nebuchadnezzar that “God rules in the kingdom of MEN and appoints over it whomsoever He wills!” (Dan 5:21) and in another place He said, “This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomsoever he will, and sets up over it the basest of men.” (Dan 4:17)

Often the people pick a man by voting and I think God says, “OK. If that’s what you want!” Then HE appoints them so that they are accountable to Him not us! I don’t think that it always is the man or woman God wants, but they are ALWAYS appointed by Him because they are over HIS family, so He makes them accountable to HIM!!!

I am secure no matter what the economy does because my Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills (and the hills)!!

I am secure no matter who rules the Nation from the oval office, because while I am secondly an American and a patriot, I am FIRST and Fully a Christian and a loyal subject in God’s Kingdom.

I will pray for whoever gets elected. I will pray for the nation! I pray daily for the Kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth just as it is in heaven!

I will continue to pray for my children and my grandchildren not to have to face some of the hardships I had to face and my parents had to face as well as many from other nations have had to! We are very spoiled in America!!

Some of you are trying to be so spiritual and you forget what it is to be an intercessor. As the Scripture says in Jer 29:7, “And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.”

Let me close by saying that I have never preached “threshold” preaching. (You know, where you get people on the edge of their seat looking for what is about to happen, good or bad.) However, let me tell you that it would be very advisable for you to live as though you were going to be here for a long time and you need to make a difference… but I would also suggest that you be ready for things never seen before (perhaps the end), and to be used of God for the Kingdom! This generation and the next may learn to experience what it means to have to stand up to persecution and hate with glory and power!

Jesus is wonderful!
Father is so good!
Ruwach (Spirit) is thrilling!

Jesus has no physical Body here except you and me. Do you really believe?? Did He really die for you? Is there really a Kingdom of Heaven or is it just church? Is there really a hell? Do you really love Him?

Would you be martyred for Him? Men and women die on foreign fields daily for freedom and loyalty to their country. Are you that committed to Christ? As my boy scout motto said, “Be Prepared”!

More later!
