PRAY WITH US about natural moral law: Father God, we exalt You as Creator who called Your creation very good. But we violated Your only law. So now we experience both good and evil in a fallen world. Yet we thank You for giving us a heart written with Your law a conscience to witness its goodness. And also a mind to rightly accuse what is evil and defend what is good according to Your law.
So help us we decide what laws to put in our constitutions and what authorities to elect to uphold those laws. Because the enemy wants to corrupt our constitutions and our authorities with and even Your good creation. They want to remake genders in their own image and re-engineer and multiply their bitter fruit. Even to the point of making trans-human counterfeits of us. So overrule their rules, undermine their ungodly plots, and show that the nations rage against You in vain. Establish the course for all nations to conform to Your good will for us. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. In Jesus’ name, amen.
PRAYER ALERT: Natural Moral Law vs. Unnatural Immoral Laws
As Belize enters the last leg of our constitutional process, let’s look again at the basis of that process. Many external forces are pushing us—and other nations—to submit to unnatural, immoral manmade laws. True law begins with natural laws made by God.
“When Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves.” Why? Because “they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them” (Rom. 2:14-15).
Our God-given heart, conscience and mind work together to enforce the law within every person. When each one finds the law written on his heart by God, his conscience bears witness to that law. Based on that testimony of two witnesses the thoughts of the rational mind accuse or defend him.
So we cannot allow manmade laws on manmade genders or manmade quotas into our constitutions. Our God-given hearts and consciences won’t witness to them. Our rational minds will accuse them of violating our nature and God-given natural laws.
Pray as we conduct elections and make constitutions this year, that God will establish only what is right in His sight. And deliver us from the many evils which threaten to corrupt us.
