When God’s people were carried off to Babylon, He told them through Jeremiah to seek the welfare of the city where He had sent them and to pray to the Lord on its behalf. Believers today live the same way, as citizens of heaven and exiles on earth who are still called to turn the world upside down for Christ. Every political issue affects the good of the community and carries a moral weight, so Christians can’t stay on the sidelines, and they’re called to vote for biblical values instead of calling evil good and good evil. Because the deepest problems in our nation are spiritual, the answer is found in God, and He promises to heal the land when His people humble themselves, pray, seek His face, and engage in the process.
