Today is election day. I’m going to do what I always do or have done for many years. I’m going to go vote. And I am going to read Psalm 2. This Pslam has words to speak to us in moments such as this. This Psalm reminds us of this truth. The Lord is upon the throne. The nations may rage. They may plot, they may scheme, they may plan. But God is God. He is God today, on Election Day, and He will be God tomorrow. Today, vote, work for you person, and pray. But, in all things, trust. Why do the nations rage? God is God.

Good morning! It’s great to be here with you on this election day, an important day for us as citizens. Voting is a privilege and a right that many have sacrificed to secure. If you’re eligible, I’d encourage you to vote today. For those abroad, please keep us in your prayers as we exercise this responsibility.

On days like today, I often turn to Psalm 2 for reflection. It’s a reminder that, while nations and leaders may plot or rage, God remains steadfast on the throne. This Psalm assures us of His enduring sovereignty, especially when worldly matters feel overwhelming.

As Christians, we’re called to work toward a better world, locally and globally. We pray for “God’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven,” and that commitment should be seen in how we serve others, vote, and lead our lives. Regardless of tonight’s election outcome, we still have the kingdom’s work before us—to love God, love our neighbor, and trust in God’s unchanging presence.

A friend once shared a story with me about a governor and a legislator who knelt side by side at a church communion, setting aside their political differences for unity in Christ. I see this as a powerful reminder that, while our earthly affiliations matter, they should never overshadow our identity in Christ.

So, whether we’re celebrating or disappointed with election results tomorrow, let’s stay focused on God’s greater calling. We belong to His eternal kingdom, which provides peace beyond anything this world can offer.

Thank you for joining today, and we’ll continue with John tomorrow. Blessings on your day!
