"But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar." Luke 19:15
When the religious leaders were asked about Jesus, they rejected him as their King. They said that Cesar was their King. For us, it is just the opposite. Our King is Jesus Christ. No matter who is elected as President, Prime Minister, the human leader of the nation we live in, Jesus Christ is our eternal King. People come and people go, but Jesus is our eternal King. That is something we can take comfort in.
I am reminded of the children of Israel in Egypt. They dwelt safely in the land of Goshen, while the plagues came upon all the rest of the people in Egypt. God can keep his people safe, no matter what is going on, even if we are seeing bad things happening all around us. We cannot easily secede from a nation to form our own country, but there is no need to. We are already citizens of the Kingdom of God if we are saved. Let us remember that, and be encouraged, and let us always have our allegiance to the Kingdom of God above all nations on this earth. Trust God to see you through and live by Kingdom principals, no matter what others do.

Matthew 27:25 All the people answered, "His blood is on us and on our children!" "But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar." Luke 19:15 A.D. 70 Titus Destroys Jerusalem.

As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42and said, "If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace-but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. 44They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God's coming to you."

Is it not the same for America and the World? Only the Wrath for the world and the State of Israel.John 5:43 43I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.
