This is what I can say as a result of the election:
We need to be in the Word. A nation's staying power is directly linked to its spiritual strength and vitality.
Our country needs a spiritual awakening. We need to return to the Word of God. We need to return to the worship of God. And we need to return to the ways of God.
I pray today, Lord, that You will forgive us of our sins. Draw us back to You as a nation. Awaken Your Church for this hour in which we live. And, Lord, send one more revival to our nation, that the Word would go forth, lives would be transformed, and eternity would be impacted.
I pray and ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.

The church needs to be the moral guide of the state. But to do so, we must be rooted in God’s word.

The Republican Party stripped a lot of its core values from its platform.
We have to acknowledge that abortion rates in this country have gone up by over 20% because of policies that are kept in place by the Trump administration.
I don't think God honors that. Part of these election results may be a chastisement upon a Party that became complacent on moral and value issues.

"A lot of this [election result] is a verdict on the second term of President Trump. President Trump's approval ratings are the lowest they've been since 2015-2016." @johnrogersal, @cygnal
"Iran and tariffs... how they've played out in the economy."
@CaseyHarper33
"The Republican Party, coming out of this... cannot take any of their voters for granted.
Those pro-life evangelicals and pro-life Catholics that make up the core of the Party, Republicans are going to have to respect their voices and work with them."

"The Biden administration did this [policy] by pure administrative fiat; there's no reason this shouldn't have been corrected in President Trump's first day in office."
Boyfriends, husbands, human traffickers, etc., "are forcing abortion drugs on women and killing their unborn children. It's absolutely diabolical."
