Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
In our Constitutional Republic, the peaceful transfer of power from one administration to the next is one of the most important elements that keep our Nation going. Nevertheless, there are always individuals from the previous administration that have, to put it nicely, "Divided Loyalties". How often do we read of an outrageous legal ruling from a Federal Judge who was appointed by a president three administrations ago, and who seems totally out of touch with current events? I am not suggesting that a new administration send out goon squads to "liquidate" employees of a previous administration, like some dictatorships do, (YIKES!), but on the other hand, the New President has a legal right to FIRE staff members who are working against him, and to appoint new people who will support and work with him. He also has the constitutional right and duty to appoint new judges and ambassadors, with the advice and consent of Congress. That is how it's SUPPOSED to work.
From even before Solomon's first day on the job, he had to deal with his father's enemies. Not only that, he had his usurper half-brother Adonijah to deal with, The treasonous General Joab, and Shimei, who cursed King David and threw rocks at him when he was fleeing from Saul. The royal court was full of half-brothers and sisters, ex-wives and concubines, flatterers, military, and hangers-on who could derail Solomon's reign before it even started. King David, even in his elderly dotage, knew of this and advised Solomon to Take Charge right away and say to the whole lot,
"YOU'RE FIRED!"
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
