The 1994 Wyoming race for House of Representatives ended in a tie. Republican Randall Luthi and Independent Larry Call agreed to a recount and the results were the same – dead even. Governor Mike Sullivan proposed a quick way to decide the race. He wrote each man’s name on a ping-pong ball, put them both in his cowboy hat, and pulled one out. Luthi’s name was drawn that day and he went on to serve for 13 years, eventually becoming Wyoming’s Speaker of the House.

Exodus 6:1

In Exodus, God sends Moses to the powerful Pharaoh over Egypt with a message to free His enslaved people…or else.

As you cast your vote today, you are a faithful messenger. It’s not an elected official or chance drawing determining the future of America. God continues to unfold His providential plan to reveal His risen Son, Jesus Christ, and deliver people from darkness. Pray, vote, and then watch and see what He is doing.
