Here we are on the 4th of July and it's a time to remember that God has given us incredible freedom in this country and so today

God has sent me to you as a scout from the front lines in the battle on religious freedom.

And the scripture he's given me is 2nd Kings 6 verses 15 through 17.

And you're probably aware of this story.

It's the story of the Prophet

Eliza and Eliza was in working with the king the Israel was under attack

from the enemies of Israel and God was giving a download to Elijah about where they were going

to be attacked and where to avoid.

And so the king of the enemy was very upset that Elijah was thwarting all of his plans against Israel.

And so, Elijah wakes up the next morning and his servant goes out and looks and the enemy

has figured out where Elijah is and surrounded the city with horses and chariots.

And the servant wakes up Elijah and Elijah says what? He says we're surrounded by the enemy and

Elijah then says something and again you probably remember this but he says

he's he prays and he says to the Lord Lord open his eyes so that he can see.

And when he does all of a sudden his servant can see that surrounding the enemy

were horses and chariots of fire from the Lord. They were totally

outnumbered. And so he just couldn't see it. And what I want to talk to you about

today is God is doing something dramatic in this country that he wants us to see and it's going to elicit

a response from us when we see what's happening.

Before I get into that, let me start with the basics. Who am I?

My name is Kelly Schakeford. I'm head of First Liberty Institute.

We're the largest legal group in the country that all we do is religious freedom.
