Are you your own worst critic? I tend to beat myself up over my shortcomings. Here’s the verse the Lord gave me last night. He speaks this to every believer.
“So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.
The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature.
So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins.
He did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us, who no longer follow our sinful nature but instead follow the Spirit.” Romans 8: 1-4 (NLT).

“Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story— those he redeemed from the hand of the foe.”

Here are some of my post-election thoughts about the midterm elections.
What does God have to say about this?
#BibleVerse #Daniel2:20 #worry #hope
Polls Can Be Wrong. Midterm Headwinds Are Real. 2028 Is a Different Election.
Polls and betting markets have several Republican Senate seats looking vulnerable today. The numbers put Susan Collins at roughly a 70-75% chance of losing in Maine, Mike Rogers around 75-80% in Michigan, Dan Sullivan near 70% in Alaska, Roger Marshall in the mid-60s in Kansas, and Ken Paxton around 70% in Texas.
These are just odds. Polls and markets get races wrong—sometimes badly.
Collins herself overcame a clear polling deficit in 2020. We’ll know the real results soon enough.
The larger pattern is harder to ignore. Midterms are usually a referendum on the party in power. Since 1946, the president’s party has lost House seats in 18 of 20 midterms, averaging roughly 26 seats. Senate losses are less automatic but still common (13 of those 20 cycles). Voters treat the midterms as a chance to send a message. That headwind is real.
It does not, however, decide the next presidential election. The correlation ...
This verse keeps coming back to me whenever people act like their personal sense of morality, justice, or goodness somehow outranks God’s.
Their thoughts are higher than the Creator’s?
That idea is both arrogant and absurd. It leaves me somewhere between an eye-roll and genuine sadness.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:8–9 (NIV)
