Daniel realizes the captivity of Israel is almost over, and prays for the nation and forgiveness of sin, providing a model for Christians today in their approach to the nation and government.
Voters have a unique stewardship for the country. Unfortunately many Christians take their stewardship lightly, and fail to apply God’s Word to modern situations (such as elections and political matters).
Your vote is part of your Christian stewardship, and becomes more important as society attempts to purge God from all corners of society, as the country moves towards value and moral relativism — a time where “everyone does what is right in their own eyes” and the denial of absolutes reigns, and a failure to follow God’s law.
