Summary

It’s hard to believe Election Day is tomorrow. No matter which side of the aisle you’re on, we can be sure there is a battle still in front of us – but the battle ahead is not ours, it’s God’s. We need to remember to trust God. We don’t know what the results of the election will be, but God does and we can trust Him with tomorrow. We do not have to live in fear or with anxious hearts; we can stand in strength because we know who holds our future.Today on Fearless, I want you to be encouraged ...

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Sissy Graham Lynch.
0:04.2	Welcome to Fearless, helping you have a fearless faith in a compromising culture.
0:27.5	Welcome back to an episode of Fearless, and it's Monday before Election Day.
0:28.8	And I just want to thank you.
0:34.9	We have hit some heavy topics this past month and looking at the issues that we're going to face on the ballot.
0:36.6	So thank you for sticking with me.
0:42.4	There are a lot of new listeners. And thank you. Welcome to Fearless. But I was sitting here just thinking about the election and what does tomorrow hold? And so I wanted to record. I'm here my home. No producer. I'm
0:49.4	here with my computer in my own microphone and just wanted to share what was on my heart as we look on to
0:55.9	tomorrow. What does tomorrow hold? And I read this article about the anxiety that the election has
1:02.0	brought upon people. And I just want to take the time to share with you what's on my heart this
1:07.2	morning as we look at the election tomorrow. And whatever happens on November 5th,
1:11.5	even if the results don't go the way you want them to, the way I want them to, we can trust God
1:17.6	with the results, that we can rest in him, that we can cling to him during this time. And I believe that
1:23.7	no matter who takes office, if it's Republicans or if it's Democrats, I believe we're
1:28.0	facing dark days ahead. And you're like, well, why? Why? If, you know, if it goes the way we want,
1:32.2	why are we going to have dark days ahead? Because I believe that Satan is relentless, that Satan is
1:37.4	never satisfied, that he is on a war path of destruction. And so no matter who's in office,
1:46.4	we as Christians, or continue to do what God's called us to do. And that's to live to tell people about his love and to tell people
1:51.6	about the gospel. It's the gospel that pierces the hearts. It's the gospel that changes lives.
1:56.4	And I believe that this is not a place for fear. I had somebody right on my social media that I was just
2:03.0	launching fear into people's lives and I was trying to scare people. And honestly, that's the last thing I want. I want
2:08.2	people to be prepared. The storms. I want people to be excited to live out their faith in these times that we're in.
