Now That I'd Even Pray For
Bishop Eddie Long had a conversation with Barack in New Orleans, before Obama even ran for the presidency. Barack told Bishop, he was running for president. Bishop, chuckeld because he knew it was impossible for Barack to win. Long said to Obama, "what made you want to run for president, don't you know you can't win." Barack knew his time and season. He simply said, " God told him to run, and if he wins, he knew it was God who spoken it. If he lost, then he knew he was tripping (paraphrased)."
but God wants to see us help ourselves by putting people back to work," Obama said.
MR. CARNEY: Well, I believe the phrase from the Bible* is, “The Lord helps those who help themselves.” And I think the point the President is making is that we should -- we have it within our capacity to do the things to help the American people.
* This common phrase does not appear in the Bible.
I trust in God, but God wants to see us help ourselves by putting people back to work," the president said.
