Speeches, conventions and promises aimed at winning votes fill the news. In the end, hope of economic relief and charisma win the election.
Jesus experienced this same phenomena.
A large crowd followed him one day. He fed 5,000 people by praying over one small lunch bag. The leftovers filled several very large baskets.
When the people saw the miracle, and their stomachs were filled, they cried out, ?He is the Prophet who will save us!?

Three years later, they exclaimed, ?Crucify him!?
Pray for the president.
