How will you know when America is experiencing TRUE REVIVAL? Pastor Louie Giglio tells a powerful story about what he witnessed during the last one. Lord, please do it again 🙏

We'll have full election results breakdown / reaction on next Live Free episode, but some quick thoughts... 1) The Sovereignty of God over all things is a deep comfort. As the old Christian saying goes, "I don't know what tomorrow holds, but I know Who holds tomorrow." “For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm! God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.” (Psalm 47) 2) It is sad and grievous. Romans 1 says God’s “passive wrath” is when he “gives them up” to their sin and evil desires – when He stops restraining a people from destroying themselves and lets them have the evil things they want. The United States intentionally chose things like max-boosting infant murder up to the moment of birth, legislated sexual perversion that will wreak havoc on a rising generation, the expansion of Islamic influence on our nation, elected leaders openly hostile to Christianity, and in at least 2 cases (TX and Kansas) chose what the New Testamant would define as (and I do not say this lightly or flippantly) demonic, apostate false teachers to lead them. This is an example of Romans 1 playing out before your eyes. 3) There is no political solution to a spiritual problem. Politics cannot fix what politics did not break, and Mankind was broken long before any political system. The hope of the world has been and remains Jesus Christ, reformation and revival in our nation that has the ability to reach inside the chests of men and women and make them new men and women who want (and vote for) new things. Christ is the only way out of the chaos. 4) Important lessons to be learned for conservatives. Wisdom would not be to blame *everything* on "dumb / evil voters." Basic leadership: "Face the brutal facts (learn and adjust), maintain unwavering faith." 5) Sadness is ok, but despair is a sin. "Therefore, we DO NOT lose heart" (2 Cor 4:16). Head up, chest out, knees down, glory up... do not grow weary in doing good, we build and fight (Nehemiah). What are we going to do? Get up with joy in our eyes, love in our hearts, steel in our spines and keep assaulting heaven for an outpouring of God's Spirit, sharing Christ, planting churches, making disciples and deploying them in all areas of society in eager anticipation of the next Great Awakening in our land. Tomb's still empty, y'all :) 6) We do what the people of God have always done in time of need: WE PRAY. See you at Encounter tonight at all Lakepointe campuses at 7pm, doors open early for you to come and "pray for the prayer meeting."
