Do we need to clean our “kingdoms?”

TODAY’S PROVERB: A wise king winnows out the wicked. He turns a threshing wheel over them. Proverbs 20:26, TLV

Did you know you rule a “kingdom?” Your kingdom may be your family, your business, classroom, or even your vehicle when you drive to work or run errands. Whatever or wherever you “govern” or have authority, that is your mini-kingdom. Including our own minds.

So, whatever “kingdom” you rule, find the evil and either clean it out, or take authority and diffuse it.

Evil divides in order to conquer kingdoms. Evil steals to destabilize kingdoms. Evil deceives to usurp authority. There are many ploys of the enemy, therefore a king or queen must be diligent to protect not only their authority, but those they are responsible for.

If we serve under a “ruler,” do we pray for them? Pray for wisdom, discernment, knowledge, and understanding for them? Whether a boss, minister, president, governor, mayor, or parents, they need our prayers for the responsibilities they bear.

Whether we rule or are ruled, helping to winnow out the evil is a wise thing. Something we should do every day.

May we winnow out the evil in our kingdom, my friends.
