The Election

The presidential election is over here in the United States. About half the country thinks their man won, and the other half is… well, you know politics.

And then there are a few that cast their votes in a different way: they voted for the One that wins every time. In the election of life, it doesn’t matter how many votes He receives, what matters is that you casted your vote for Him. Then you are the winner.

This testimony will put a smile on your face.

Last voting season, after being questioned by my co-workers about voting in the Presidential Election and me not feeling to vote for either candidate, their reply was you must vote; it is a privilege in our country. “You can make a difference,” etc. So, as I thought on this, I reflected back to what Brother Branham said,

Have you all been reading the paper about this rally that's going on out here in California, how those men are talking about throwing off from one party to another... But of course, to me, I--I'm... I cast one vote; that was on Jesus Christ for my Saviour. I'm going to win. That's right. That's all right. I voted for the Lord Jesus to be my Saviour, and that's all.

I heard you could write in anyone in the voting machine, so I decided to cast my vote for the Lord Jesus Christ, and I did! Proudly wearing my, “I Voted” sticker they give you at the polls, no one could get on to me for not voting. When they asked me who I voted for, I told them “Jesus Christ,” because He already won! Amen! I got some strange looks.

We'll this year I decided to do the same thing, but while standing in the polling line I started thinking, “I'm just wasting my time. Maybe I shouldn't be here.” So as I moved up the line, a man behind me said, “It’s just so confusing, on who to trust.” I said, “Well, there’s one thing that’s not confusing, because He is not the author of confusion.” As I pointed up, he agreed, that is right. A lady in front of me, overhearing, said I wish we could vote for God!

Oh my! How I felt then. I said, “But you can! You can write Him in. You can vote your conscience.”

They replied, “I never thought about that.” As we looked at the sample ballots on the wall, I showed how you can write in on every choice.

I felt really good after that. I was not wasting my time anymore. I felt like singing, “I'm one of them, I’m one of them, I’m so glad that I can say I’m one of them!” So if anyone asks who I voted for, I proudly tell them, “The Lord Jesus Christ! For He already won!”
