And now a warrior for the word of God and the Constitution of the United States, a, Marine The Core veteran, a Harvard trade attorney, Bishop of the Call churches, and founder and president of Stand, Staying True to America's National Destiny, the voice of the Awakening, your host, Bishop E.W. jackson.
Bishop EW Jackson Welcome to the Awakening podcast. I'm your host, Bishop E.W. jackson. And I'll tell you what, just as filled with faith and hope as ever. Even though I am coming to you the day after the election in which conservatives and Republicans took a, figuratively a bloodbath, outcome was terrible, terrible, in fact, historic in its implications. and we'll get into that in a moment. But the first thing I want to say to you all, because a lot of you can turn on television anytime and get all the rundown on the numbers for each race and all that. And I'm sure by now you probably heard all those, if you haven't.
Spiritual Analysis of Election Results and Specific Race Outcomes in Michigan and Florida
So I want to get into a little bit of that. But that's not what you tune in here for. you tune in here for spiritual analysis of what is going on and a spiritual understanding. You know, since I was up until, oh, I don't know, 1am on election night, when I went to bed, the results of the Michigan race had not come in. As we all know, the Muslim Abdul, El Sayed won that race against, Mike Rogers by about four points. I, went to bed before that happened, woke up this morning. But I could see the trend because the candidates who won had been pretty much leading all night. And the general trend was most of the Democrats demon crats still to me won by 10 and 11 points. Some of the closer races were 4 or 5 points. where Republicans had the biggest victory in Florida, they run those, won those races by only one or two points. I'll tell you something, it does not portend well. And I'm going to get into that in a moment. So let me proceed with the plan I have for giving you something to think about. The biblical reference I have had on my mind since I began to understand what the outcome was. And I could see it early on. I mean I knew, my goodness, polls closed in most places by about 7 Eastern time. I knew by 8 or 9 o' clock it was bad news. You could see the margins in the races were so large and having run for office, I know when an opponent builds up a margin that's very, very large, then the question is, are there enough votes knowing that you're not going to win 100% anywhere are there enough votes left to make up that large margin? I was looking at those margins, looking at Talarico's margin, for example, and thinking, I don't see, looking at Syed's margin as well, the two races we probably paid most attention to, and thinking, I don't see them. I don't see them making up that margin. And though we were told that Rogers people looked at the numbers and thought they were well positioned, as I saw the numbers come in, it just. It didn't portend well. So I was kind of expecting a bad night based upon the numbers. Still believing God, of course, for a miraculous victory. And frankly, given the way things went, I considered Florida to be a miracle in and of itself. The fact that Florida used to be purplish, I guess, at best. and then it turned deep red by Desantis. And I'd say the outcome of, Tuesday's election suggests to me Florida's definitely reddish. I wouldn't call it a deep red, not based on that outcome. But now, thank God, Bryan Donalds, won a, very important race. and so did, who's the woman who ran for Senate, but so did the candidate for Senate. I didn't pay as much attention to that race. I kind of expected a win. But here again, Angie Nixon. I certainly haven't forgotten her name because she's bat crazy. Angie Nixon only lost by two points. By two points, folks. Let me find that race here. why is it on here? Ah, let's say these charts and whatnot. Some of them are just exasperating. Yeah, I don't see the Florida race reflected here. I see Texas, I see Alaska. but at any rate, yeah, I mean, Angie Nixon lost by only two points. Well, I guess you could say four. But 40. She got 48% of the vote. And the woman is certifiably nuts. Okay, again, before I get into some of all of that, I should. I just expected Florida to come out the way it did, so I didn't pay as much attention to the Florida race. that was Ashley Moody. That's right, Ashley Moody. She won that race. Thank God. But look, she only won it by 50. She had 50.87%. So not quite 51% of the vote. And Angie Nixon got 47.98% of the vote, Folks, in terms of the actual numbers, it looks like about 8 million votes cast. And Angie Nixon lost that race by only a couple hundred thousand votes. With 8 million votes cast. 8 million votes cast. She lost it by A couple hundred thousand. I mean, you had almost 4 million people vote for Angie Nixon again. It's crazy. Well, let me not get ahead of myself, because there's so much to talk about here. but here's what came to mind. Biblically, do you remember the story of the Levite, who had a concubine, who left him for reasons that are not entirely unclear. I mean, not entirely clear, except that she played the harlot according to scripture, so she was apparently unfaithful. I don't know whether that was sexually unfaithful or just not being, the companion, the mate that she was supposed to be. And concubine doesn't seem to mean wife, so I won't get into all that. But she left. She went back to her father's house. Well, he apparently cared about her and left and went to go get her and, you know, spent some time with this, with her father, and. And so she left with him, Left to go back, but it was a long journey. And they finally left, and they came to the Benjamites territory, in Gibeah. And they were about to stay out overnight in the square, and a man came along and said, look, you know, don't. Don't stay out here. You know, come. Come stay with me. And so that's what happened. He went and stayed with this man. he said, you know, do not, you know, just. He said, let your needs be my responsibility. I'm quoting that. He said, let your needs be my responsibility. Don't I spend the night in the open square. So he brought them into his house and gave fodder to the donkeys, and they washed their feet and ate and drank. But then sometime that night, men showed up. The Bible calls them perverted men. That means these were homosexuals. These were sodomites. they showed up and they said, bring out the man, the man who came to your house, that we may know him carnally. In other words, we want to have sex with this man in your house. And the guest, kind of like lot did with the angel, said, man, don't. Don't. Don't do this. Don't do this. He said, don't commit this, this. This outrage. And the man said, look, I got a virgin daughter, and the man's concubine. Let me bring them out. You. I don't understand the culture of this, but this is what, you know, the Bible's accurately pointing what happened. But the men said, no. They said, no, we want to have sex with man. I mean, These were disgusting people in the Bible, you know, people like Talarico. The Bible doesn't say anything about homosexuality. Give me a break. So at any rate, the man took his concubine out. The traveling Levi took his concubine out. And so they took the concubine, I guess, as a consolation prize, and abused her all night. She came back, fell down at the door of the house, and died. In other words, they literally raped her to death. Who knows what else they did to her? Who knows how they abuse her? But the woman died. The man cut her up and cut her body up into pieces and sent it throughout Israel as a. As a message of what these Benjamites had done to this woman and told the story. So the eleven tribes of Israel got together and said, we're going to hold the Benjamites accountable. We're going to hold these men accountable. And they went to the Benjamites and told them, we want you to bring these men out because they deserve to be punished. And the Benjamin said, no, we're not bringing them out. No. And basically they essentially justified the men. And so all of Israel got together for war against the Benjamites, the eleven tribes for war against this one tribe. Now, here's what's interesting about this. 11 tribes against one. They went up against the Benjamites the first time, and they lost 18,000 men. 18,000. The Bible says in Judges 20, verse 23, it says, and the children of Israel went up and wept before the Lord and asked counsel, saying, shall I again draw near to battle against the children of my brother Benjamin? And the Lord said, go up against them. So Israel went up against them again, and they lost another 18,000 men, 18,000 more. So now they've lost 18. Well, actually, I think it was 22,000 the first time and 18,000 the second time. That's total of 40,000 men. They've lost 11 tribes against one. They lost both times, it says. So the children of Israel inquired of the Lord, saying, shall I again go out to battle against the children of my brother Benjamin? Shall I cease? And the Lord said, go up, for tomorrow I will deliver them into your hand. And they did. And that's what happened. And they, for all practical purposes, they wiped out all the men of the tribe of Benjamin. But first they lost 40,000 men in two battles. Now, I thought of that story because you think, well, wait a minute. Why did they have to suffer those losses in order to get the victory?
Lessons on Victory, Hardship, and Spiritual Toughness in a Fallen World
I don't know that I have a definitive answer to that. But I'll tell you one thing I can say. I really believe God wants his people to understand that victory does not come m without hardship and heartache. Because we don't live in a perfect world. In a perfect world, God says, do it. Boom. Everything goes according to plan, everything falls into place, everything happens the way you want it to, and that's that. In a perfect world. But we don't live in a perfect world, do we? We live in a fallen and sinful world, a world in which God has given us authority and responsibility. And God does not, and I use this word advisably advisedly because I don't mean any disrespect at all. God does not magically give us immediate victory in every situation because if he did that, he'd be teaching us that we live in a fantasy world and we don't. God wants us, frankly. I mean, if you can receive this. God wants us to toughen up. He wants us to understand no, things aren't going to be handed to us on a silver platter. He wants us to toughen up. And I think what the lesson we have gotten from this election on Tuesday is don't curl up, toughen up. Now there's the word of the day. Don't curl up, you know, into a little fetal ball. Don't curl up, toughen up. I mean, these tribes lost 40,000 men before God said, okay, now go up and take them. I'm gonna give you the victory. You got it. Now, we just lost a major election. I mean, demon, crats now have a commanding lead in the House and the Senate. They don't have a veto proof majority, but they're going to be able to give President Trump fits. And some of them are already saying, lawyer up, everybody. All you Republicans better lawyer up because they're going to try to put people in jail because this is the way they think. Not because anybody's done anything illegal. If they claim that they have, they haven't pointed it out to us yet, have they? It's just a whole lot of innuendo. Trump is fighting in a legal war and Trump is, you know, just a whole bunch of nonsense. Because, because these people are so filled with hatred of Donald Trump and mainly because Donald Trump defends this country without apology or compromise or equivocation. And they just can't stand that. Because they think America needs a comeuppance. They think America needs to be brought down some notches. I mean, Obama actually said that, that we needed to be brought down a notch. That's why he went around apologizing to the world. That's the way these demon crats think. They're not grateful to God for what he's given us. They think that they can be God and they can make this wonderful constitutional republic God has given us. They can make it better by turning it into a pure democracy. So basically, they can vote anything they want to vote. They can vote away your First Amendment liberties, they can censor you, they can put you in prison, they can do whatever they want to do to you because they don't like you, because they don't like the positions that you take. How dare you criticize their, their baby killing frenzy with these, with abortion being, a sacrament to their cult of religion. How dare you. How dare you misgender people and say, I refuse to call a man by a woman's name or pronouns, whatever, because he's, he's a man. Oh, how dare you. We want to lock you up for that. How dare you suggest that we're grooming children by talking to them about being born in the wrong body and trying to get a girl to be a boy and get a boy to be a girl and not wanting to tell the parents. How dare you criticize us for that? Yeah, we criticize you for that because you're demonic, you're abusers, you're groomers, you're manipulators of children. They say, well, Bishop Jackson, if all of that is true, what in the world happened on Tuesday, November 3, 2026? I'll tell you what happened. We saw at work the results of a, long practiced, long standing propaganda and indoctrination machine that works over time to a lot of people. It includes the mainstream media, the Alphabet networks, abc, NBC, cnn, msn, you, name it, all of these so called legacy media, these leftist media. Because you know what the interesting thing is? Talarico, when asked what is he passionate about, he said, the transgender children that came to see me, I mean, what is this man? That's why I call him Pee Wee Herman. What? The transgender children, that's what you're passionate about? Well, exactly what do you want with them? I mean, when you operate on them, you want to do it yourself. I mean, that's the weirdest answer to a political question I've ever heard in my life. I'm passionate about the transgender children. Oh my goodness. He got the nerve to call himself a Christian. This story should be a lesson to us. Just because you lose the first time, just because you lose a second time doesn't mean God intends for you to lose. God wants us to learn the virtue of perseverance. He wants us to learn the virtue of, toughness, spiritual toughness. So don't curl up. Toughen up. M. Now this is going to be a rather disgusting two years we have to contend with because I've already heard Talarico talking about. His battle was about battle between David and Goliath. No, that's wrong. His battle was a battle between the imps and demons of Satan trying to undermine the state of Texas and ultimately our constitutional republic. James Talarico is not a Christian. He's a liar. He is not a Christian. When you go to a church that doesn't even know, can't tell you that we don't know if Jesus actually existed. You're not going to a church. You're going to a cult, a demonic cult in which the pastor, claiming to represent Jesus instead blasphemes his name by raising doubt whether Jesus ever even existed. We have no proof of that. Well, obviously you don't know him, you dummy, because anybody who's had a true encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ doesn't just think or doesn't even just believe he exists. We know he exists. We know it. You know, we talk about faith. And there are aspects of Christ Christianity that we function, with by faith because we can't on any kind of, intellectual basis, know. So, for example, I just learned of someone very dear to me who's been struck with a very serious illness. I have faith for that person's healing, complete, total and absolute. But I can't say I know unless God tells me. And God does speak to me at times in situations like this. But most of the time I can't say I know that this person will be healed. I have faith that the person will. But I've had faith that people would be healed and they didn't get healed. And I won't get into all the theology that goes into that. But I think there are lots of reasons for things like that happening, some of which we know, some which we don't know.
Certainty in Faith versus Doubt, Especially Regarding Jesus Christ's Existence
But there are also some things I absolutely, unequivocally know. If you say, well, you just believe that Jesus exists. You don't know that. No, I know that. I know that Jesus is real. I know that Jesus is the Savior. I know that he is the Son of God, come in the flesh to die on the cross for our sins. I know that he rose on the third day. I'll just believe it. I know it. I know I'm going to heaven. I know it. I just believe it. I know it. So how can you say you know it? There are. There are things that God deposits so deep in you that you know that you know that you know that you know. Okay. And you got Talarico running around in the church. Well, we don't really know that. Jesus. Well, what are you. What are you following? The one who might exist, might have lived, might not. I mean, Talarico, the pastor, probably. Most people going to that church are not Christians. If any of them are Christians, they better get out of there before it's too late, because they're liable to throw away their salvation following those idiots. So he's going to tell me the story right there. David and Goliath. Just like it was a David and Goliath battle. I mean, stop blaspheming God and using these biblical images for your demonic mess.
Critique of Transgender Ideology and Political Figures, Highlighting Moral and Spiritual Concerns
I guess he used the same image after cutting off some little boy's genitalia. It was a David and Goliath battle. There were so many people, the parents, who didn't want me to do it and who didn't want it to happen. But we fought and we. We got Johnny turned into Joan. It was a victory for God. Oh, My goodness gracious. I mean. Ugh. And, you know, I was thinking, it is going to be disgusting to have to hear him for the next two years. Now, don't get me wrong. I don't hate that man. I feel sorry for him, frankly, because he's a deeply confused individual. But I tell you what, I also feel sorry for the people who voted for him. I don't even know how any thinking person could vote for that reprobate. Because he is a reprobate. I mean, like I said, he reminds me of Pee Wee Herman. And you know what Pee Wee Herman was? He was a rather disgusting human being. I don't know whether he's alive or not, but you know what I'm talking about. so there's. Here we are. Okay. Don't curl up. Toughen up. Okay, that's number one. Here's the number two thing I think we need to be aware of. And I wrote a piece about this, which you'll be able to check out on Truth and Liberty. I haven't submitted it yet, but it's on the way. You know, the mistake that people make. And I hope Christians do not make this mistake. I hope Christians never make this mistake. Gas prices are high. Last time I put gas in my car, I Paid close to five bucks a gallon. But I have a big truck and I have to use high tests so my gas is close to five bucks a gallon. I fill up now it cost me 100 to 110, 115 bucks. fortunately I don't commute so I don't burn up as much gas as somebody who had to commute back and forth to a job to send 20, 30 miles away every day. I don't have to do that. but. It is extremely short sighted devote one's temporary economic pain, hardship over the long term interests, spiritual, cultural and economic of your country. It is extremely short sighted but I know people do it. Christians shouldn't do it because look, does anybody really believe that the demon crat party understands or cares about America's free market economy? Does anybody really believe that? I m think that the people who voted for these demon crats, these reprobates, I think the people who voted for them are frankly indoctrinated to believe that somehow, well, some of them voted for them, really believe in that whole philosophy and they're just as demonic as the people they're voting for. So some of the people are like that. But for some of the people may have crossed over who believe that, well, you know, we need balance and we need, sometimes you need to teach the other party a lesson, all that. I mean, I don't know what to say for you M. Because the economy is cyclical. I mean I don't care, I don't care what the policies are, I don't care who is in office. The reality is, I'm not saying it doesn't make a difference. It does. I. Obviously better policies make for a better economy, no question about that. Low taxes, low regulations, you know, fostering entrepreneurship, all of these things help our economy to grow and to move. But the fact of the matter is no matter what policies are in place, the economy moves in cycles. It expands and it contracts. It goes up and it comes down, it grows and it shrinks. We have inflationary periods and then we have non inflationary periods. In a perfect world, none of that would be true. In a perfect world, our economy would just be humming along at 6% growth with no inflation, no problems, jobs for everybody. Everything would always be hunky dory, everything would always be great. But that's not the world we live in. So if I'm facing economic hardship right now, say for example in trying to put gas in my car, and I think, well, okay, well that's because of the Iran war. And so I'm going to vote against Republicans because they've gotten us into a war that's costing me more money at the pump. The fact of the matter is, all of that is going to change. You know, it's going to change. The war is eventually going to end. I mean, to kinetic wars, for all practical purposes, over. Although Donald Trump continues to hold, he holds the card of using force whenever necessary against Iran. Listen, remember, Iran is the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world. Let's remember that Iran has an apocalyptic view of the world, believing in the coming of the 12th Imam, the Mahdi, the equivalent of the Muslim Messiah, who's going to rule the world as a worldwide caliphate. Remember, they believe all that crazy stuff, all that Islamic nonsense. These people are dangerous. If they had a nuclear weapon, how. What impact you think that might have on the economy? If they launched it, what impact do you think that might have? And anybody who believes that Barack Obama was going to stop Iran from having a nuclear weapon. I, don't know what to say for you. Barack Obama couldn't stop a gnat because Barack Obama is a wimp. I'm shocked that he even gave the order to have Osama bin Laden killed, to tell you the truth, because I think Barack Obama is a wet noodle of a man. Yeah, I said it because I mean it. I believe it with all my heart. I mean, this man couldn't even defend his own country. He went around the world apologizing, telling people how bad America is. So what kind of man is that? That's like a man running around telling all his friends about how terrible his family is. Well, it may or may not be true, but you think, what kind of man is that who goes around telling everybody how bad his family is, denouncing his own family? What kind of idiot is that? Would you respect a man like that? I wouldn't. I say, even if it's true, that's none of our business. And you ought to be. You ought to be trying to make your family better and defending the honor of your family, not running around denouncing it to other people. What's the matter with you? That's about as punkish as it gets. And Barack Obama did that his whole presidency. He never had anything good to have. A lot of good things to say about Islam, had a lot of good things to say about homosexuality. He didn't have anything good to say about America. That's what we now got in office, controlling the House and the Senate. And we have to endure this for a couple years. So here is my counsel to you in terms of. Okay, Mr. Jackson, that's all true. What do we need to do? We need to do the same thing we've always done. We've got to keep praying. We got to keep engaging. We've got to keep educating people. We've got to keep working, and we got to keep believing God for the breakthrough that our country needs to get us out of this mess that we're in. As you realize, this victory was a victory for socialism. It was a victory for Islam. It was a victory for the Democratic Socialists of America because they elected several House members. Now, you know, we gotyeah. We've got openly declared socialists now serving in the US House of Representatives. And El Sayed, even though he's not a member of the Socialists, the Democratic Socialists of America, he is. He's a member. He's like Howard Zinn. You, know, the guy who wrote People's History of the United States, one of the worst history books ever written. a polemic against our country that's indoctrinated and brainwashed more Americans to hate their country than any any other single volume ever written. Howard Zinn was a communist, but he would always say, I was never a member of the Communist Party. He was a communist, and he hated America. And El Sayed is a socialist, and he hates America. So we've just got to keep working and praying and believing and asking God to give us wisdom. And, and by the way, I realize something now because, of course, whenever God gives you an instruction, you always hope that you're going to see immediate results from it. Well, just like I showed you in Judges, chapter 20, 11 tribes fought two great battles, lost 22,000 men in one battle, 18,000 men in another, before they ultimately won the victory over the tribe of Benjamin M. That refused to hold accountable the men who had tried to rape their guest, their male guest, and ended up raping to death the concubine that had been turned over to them. All they wanted to do was hold these men accountable. And the tribe of Benjamin said, no, we're not giving you these men, period. No. In other words, homosexuality is no big deal to us, just like the liberals of today. And when they fought them the first time and they suffered this tremendous defeat, they went back to God and said, God, Lord, what is going on? Should we really go up and fight them again? And God said, yeah, go up. They lost 22,000 men, yet God said, yeah, go fight them again. They went up this time lost 18,000 men. Now we're up to 40,000 men. Lord. Oh, Lord. Oh, my goodness gracious, Lord. We're trying to uphold the standard of righteousness and we're getting our heads handed to us. Should you really want to, Did we hear you right? Do you really want us to go up and fight him again? God said, yep, go fight him again. And this time they wanted an, absolute decisive victory. And like I said, pretty much wiped out all the men in the tribe of Benjamin. There were a few left, and they paired them with some women so that they could rebuild the tribe because then they felt terrible that they had, in effect, destroyed, for all practical purposes, destroyed, the tribe of Israel. But of course they didn't destroy it because we know the Apostle Paul was of the tribe of Benjamin. So the tribe of Benjamin was rebuilt. I don't know exactly what the year was that that happened, but that was obviously hundreds of years before Paul came on the scene. That was before, that was long before, David and long before Saul, and David, Samuel, Saul and David were on the scene. So it was hundreds of years, but the tribe of Benjamin was ultimately rebuilt. And the correction was ultimately made. But I'll tell you what, it took, major, it took two major defeats for that to happen. I mean, again, folks, I think that that's God's way of saying, don't expect me to just kind of magically hand you victory because you'll never have the fortitude and the perseverance that you need in order to deal with this fallen world. And God wants us to be people of, ah, perseverance and fortitude and toughness. So I'd say dust yourself off, pick yourself up and say, okay, well, Lord, this is what it is for now we're believing you for victory for the United States of America. And we're going to continue to stand until we get it, period. That's the way I feel. You notice you don't hear me weeping. I'm not weeping. I'm not crying. I'm not happy about the outcome, obviously, but my faith is in Jesus Christ. I'll look to the hills. From whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth. And I know, see, I look, you all know I've talked about my jubilee coming up. My jubilee is coming up, on December 5th and 6th. if you want to learn more about that, go to thecalled.org, the called org t h e c a l l e d thecall.org and if you're in the Virginia area and you want to come by, come on by. We have a banquet on Saturday at 5pm and we have two services on Sunday at 9 and 11am Andrew Wommack is going to be our guest speaker on the Sunday services. And Pastor Cecil Bly from Louisville, Kentucky, he's going to be our guest speaker on Saturday. But I didn't mention that to promote my jubilee. I really said that to say, in my 50 years of, walking with God, victory in any situation has never been a straight line. It has always been something of a zigzag. You start out, you think, well, okay, this is it. Well, no, that's not quite it. You know, you turn here and you go, that. But that's. That's not. But eventually. Eventually under. In every situation. In every situation, God has brought me to victory. God has brought me to overcome victory. Hasn't always even looked like what I thought it might look like. But I'll tell you what, I've always come out victorious. Always. Doesn't happen. Sometimes as soon as I like it, would like it to happen. But I always come out victorious. Always. And that's not bragging on E.W. jackson. That's bragging on God. That's bragging on Jesus. Because he's the one who gives us the victory. As the song says, the war was won by Jesus on a hill called Calvary when he gave his life for you and me Dry your eyes don't you cry Everything is going to be all right Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning time so fight on Fight through the rain Fight through the pain Fight when you're up, Fight when you're down. press through those fears. Press through those tears We've already got the victory. Fight on. And that's what I'm telling you, because that's certainly what I intend to do. Our rampant office. I know what it is to have these kinds of disappointments. and I'm looking at the trend, and believe me, I'm not liking it. But just like the children of Israel had two big battles and two major setbacks, two major defeats, but victory was on the way.
Perseverance Through Setbacks, Drawing Parallels to the Fight Against Injustice
All they had to do is persevere, stay at it, and God gave them the victory. And by the way, it was the same kind of situation. They were fighting against the sexual deviancy and moral relativism and all that and just disgusting behavior and the willingness of the tribe of Benjamin, I guess the demon Crat party of their Time to just justify it and, and make up excuses for it and defend it and all of that. But the children of Israel said, oh, no, no, no, no, no. You are going to pay for this injustice. And eventually they won the victory. I believe God for victory. The Bible says he always causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus. We are more than conquerors through him that loved us. I believe that. Look, my friends, thank you for your support. Thank you for all that you do to make American Family Radio possible and the entire constellation of organizations and ministries supported by American Family association. Go to afr.net to help us. Afr.net and, I just thank you all so much for your continued support and fortitude. So don't you in any way be discouraged. Be disheartened. Don't let it happen.

And now a warrior for the word of God and the Constitution of the United States, a, Marine The Core veteran, a Harvard trade attorney, Bishop of the Call churches, and founder and president of Stand, Staying True to America's National Destiny, the voice of the Awakening, your host, Bishop E.W. jackson.
Bishop EW Jackson Welcome to the Awakening podcast. I'm your host, Bishop E.W. jackson. And I'll tell you what, just as filled with faith and hope as ever. Even though I am coming to you the day after the election in which conservatives and Republicans took a, figuratively a bloodbath, outcome was terrible, terrible, in fact, historic in its implications. and we'll get into that in a moment. But the first thing I want to say to you all, because a lot of you can turn on television anytime and get all the rundown on the numbers for each race and all that. And I'm sure by now you probably heard all those, if you haven't.
Spiritual Analysis of Election Results and Specific Race Outcomes in Michigan and Florida
So I want to get into a little bit of that. But that's not what you tune in here for. you tune in here for spiritual analysis of what is going on and a spiritual understanding. You know, since I was up until, oh, I don't know, 1am on election night, when I went to bed, the results of the Michigan race had not come in. As we all know, the Muslim Abdul, El Sayed won that race against, Mike Rogers by about four points. I, went to bed before that happened, woke up this morning. But I could see the trend because the candidates who won had been pretty much leading all night. And the general trend was most of the Democrats demon crats still to me won by 10 and 11 points. Some of the closer races were 4 or 5 points. where Republicans had the biggest victory in Florida, they run those, won those races by only one or two points. I'll tell you something, it does not portend well. And I'm going to get into that in a moment. So let me proceed with the plan I have for giving you something to think about. The biblical reference I have had on my mind since I began to understand what the outcome was. And I could see it early on. I mean I knew, my goodness, polls closed in most places by about 7 Eastern time. I knew by 8 or 9 o' clock it was bad news. You could see the margins in the races were so large and having run for office, I know when an opponent builds up a margin that's very, very large, then the question is, are there enough votes knowing that you're not going to win 100% anywhere are there enough votes left to make up that large margin? I was looking at those margins, looking at Talarico's margin, for example, and thinking, I don't see, looking at Syed's margin as well, the two races we probably paid most attention to, and thinking, I don't see them. I don't see them making up that margin. And though we were told that Rogers people looked at the numbers and thought they were well positioned, as I saw the numbers come in, it just. It didn't portend well. So I was kind of expecting a bad night based upon the numbers. Still believing God, of course, for a miraculous victory. And frankly, given the way things went, I considered Florida to be a miracle in and of itself. The fact that Florida used to be purplish, I guess, at best. and then it turned deep red by Desantis. And I'd say the outcome of, Tuesday's election suggests to me Florida's definitely reddish. I wouldn't call it a deep red, not based on that outcome. But now, thank God, Bryan Donalds, won a, very important race. and so did, who's the woman who ran for Senate, but so did the candidate for Senate. I didn't pay as much attention to that race. I kind of expected a win. But here again, Angie Nixon. I certainly haven't forgotten her name because she's bat crazy. Angie Nixon only lost by two points. By two points, folks. Let me find that race here. why is it on here? Ah, let's say these charts and whatnot. Some of them are just exasperating. Yeah, I don't see the Florida race reflected here. I see Texas, I see Alaska. but at any rate, yeah, I mean, Angie Nixon lost by only two points. Well, I guess you could say four. But 40. She got 48% of the vote. And the woman is certifiably nuts. Okay, again, before I get into some of all of that, I should. I just expected Florida to come out the way it did, so I didn't pay as much attention to the Florida race. that was Ashley Moody. That's right, Ashley Moody. She won that race. Thank God. But look, she only won it by 50. She had 50.87%. So not quite 51% of the vote. And Angie Nixon got 47.98% of the vote, Folks, in terms of the actual numbers, it looks like about 8 million votes cast. And Angie Nixon lost that race by only a couple hundred thousand votes. With 8 million votes cast. 8 million votes cast. She lost it by A couple hundred thousand. I mean, you had almost 4 million people vote for Angie Nixon again. It's crazy. Well, let me not get ahead of myself, because there's so much to talk about here. but here's what came to mind. Biblically, do you remember the story of the Levite, who had a concubine, who left him for reasons that are not entirely unclear. I mean, not entirely clear, except that she played the harlot according to scripture, so she was apparently unfaithful. I don't know whether that was sexually unfaithful or just not being, the companion, the mate that she was supposed to be. And concubine doesn't seem to mean wife, so I won't get into all that. But she left. She went back to her father's house. Well, he apparently cared about her and left and went to go get her and, you know, spent some time with this, with her father, and. And so she left with him, Left to go back, but it was a long journey. And they finally left, and they came to the Benjamites territory, in Gibeah. And they were about to stay out overnight in the square, and a man came along and said, look, you know, don't. Don't stay out here. You know, come. Come stay with me. And so that's what happened. He went and stayed with this man. he said, you know, do not, you know, just. He said, let your needs be my responsibility. I'm quoting that. He said, let your needs be my responsibility. Don't I spend the night in the open square. So he brought them into his house and gave fodder to the donkeys, and they washed their feet and ate and drank. But then sometime that night, men showed up. The Bible calls them perverted men. That means these were homosexuals. These were sodomites. they showed up and they said, bring out the man, the man who came to your house, that we may know him carnally. In other words, we want to have sex with this man in your house. And the guest, kind of like lot did with the angel, said, man, don't. Don't. Don't do this. Don't do this. He said, don't commit this, this. This outrage. And the man said, look, I got a virgin daughter, and the man's concubine. Let me bring them out. You. I don't understand the culture of this, but this is what, you know, the Bible's accurately pointing what happened. But the men said, no. They said, no, we want to have sex with man. I mean, These were disgusting people in the Bible, you know, people like Talarico. The Bible doesn't say anything about homosexuality. Give me a break. So at any rate, the man took his concubine out. The traveling Levi took his concubine out. And so they took the concubine, I guess, as a consolation prize, and abused her all night. She came back, fell down at the door of the house, and died. In other words, they literally raped her to death. Who knows what else they did to her? Who knows how they abuse her? But the woman died. The man cut her up and cut her body up into pieces and sent it throughout Israel as a. As a message of what these Benjamites had done to this woman and told the story. So the eleven tribes of Israel got together and said, we're going to hold the Benjamites accountable. We're going to hold these men accountable. And they went to the Benjamites and told them, we want you to bring these men out because they deserve to be punished. And the Benjamin said, no, we're not bringing them out. No. And basically they essentially justified the men. And so all of Israel got together for war against the Benjamites, the eleven tribes for war against this one tribe. Now, here's what's interesting about this. 11 tribes against one. They went up against the Benjamites the first time, and they lost 18,000 men. 18,000. The Bible says in Judges 20, verse 23, it says, and the children of Israel went up and wept before the Lord and asked counsel, saying, shall I again draw near to battle against the children of my brother Benjamin? And the Lord said, go up against them. So Israel went up against them again, and they lost another 18,000 men, 18,000 more. So now they've lost 18. Well, actually, I think it was 22,000 the first time and 18,000 the second time. That's total of 40,000 men. They've lost 11 tribes against one. They lost both times, it says. So the children of Israel inquired of the Lord, saying, shall I again go out to battle against the children of my brother Benjamin? Shall I cease? And the Lord said, go up, for tomorrow I will deliver them into your hand. And they did. And that's what happened. And they, for all practical purposes, they wiped out all the men of the tribe of Benjamin. But first they lost 40,000 men in two battles. Now, I thought of that story because you think, well, wait a minute. Why did they have to suffer those losses in order to get the victory?
Lessons on Victory, Hardship, and Spiritual Toughness in a Fallen World
I don't know that I have a definitive answer to that. But I'll tell you one thing I can say. I really believe God wants his people to understand that victory does not come m without hardship and heartache. Because we don't live in a perfect world. In a perfect world, God says, do it. Boom. Everything goes according to plan, everything falls into place, everything happens the way you want it to, and that's that. In a perfect world. But we don't live in a perfect world, do we? We live in a fallen and sinful world, a world in which God has given us authority and responsibility. And God does not, and I use this word advisably advisedly because I don't mean any disrespect at all. God does not magically give us immediate victory in every situation because if he did that, he'd be teaching us that we live in a fantasy world and we don't. God wants us, frankly. I mean, if you can receive this. God wants us to toughen up. He wants us to understand no, things aren't going to be handed to us on a silver platter. He wants us to toughen up. And I think what the lesson we have gotten from this election on Tuesday is don't curl up, toughen up. Now there's the word of the day. Don't curl up, you know, into a little fetal ball. Don't curl up, toughen up. I mean, these tribes lost 40,000 men before God said, okay, now go up and take them. I'm gonna give you the victory. You got it. Now, we just lost a major election. I mean, demon, crats now have a commanding lead in the House and the Senate. They don't have a veto proof majority, but they're going to be able to give President Trump fits. And some of them are already saying, lawyer up, everybody. All you Republicans better lawyer up because they're going to try to put people in jail because this is the way they think. Not because anybody's done anything illegal. If they claim that they have, they haven't pointed it out to us yet, have they? It's just a whole lot of innuendo. Trump is fighting in a legal war and Trump is, you know, just a whole bunch of nonsense. Because, because these people are so filled with hatred of Donald Trump and mainly because Donald Trump defends this country without apology or compromise or equivocation. And they just can't stand that. Because they think America needs a comeuppance. They think America needs to be brought down some notches. I mean, Obama actually said that, that we needed to be brought down a notch. That's why he went around apologizing to the world. That's the way these demon crats think. They're not grateful to God for what he's given us. They think that they can be God and they can make this wonderful constitutional republic God has given us. They can make it better by turning it into a pure democracy. So basically, they can vote anything they want to vote. They can vote away your First Amendment liberties, they can censor you, they can put you in prison, they can do whatever they want to do to you because they don't like you, because they don't like the positions that you take. How dare you criticize their, their baby killing frenzy with these, with abortion being, a sacrament to their cult of religion. How dare you. How dare you misgender people and say, I refuse to call a man by a woman's name or pronouns, whatever, because he's, he's a man. Oh, how dare you. We want to lock you up for that. How dare you suggest that we're grooming children by talking to them about being born in the wrong body and trying to get a girl to be a boy and get a boy to be a girl and not wanting to tell the parents. How dare you criticize us for that? Yeah, we criticize you for that because you're demonic, you're abusers, you're groomers, you're manipulators of children. They say, well, Bishop Jackson, if all of that is true, what in the world happened on Tuesday, November 3, 2026? I'll tell you what happened. We saw at work the results of a, long practiced, long standing propaganda and indoctrination machine that works over time to a lot of people. It includes the mainstream media, the Alphabet networks, abc, NBC, cnn, msn, you, name it, all of these so called legacy media, these leftist media. Because you know what the interesting thing is? Talarico, when asked what is he passionate about, he said, the transgender children that came to see me, I mean, what is this man? That's why I call him Pee Wee Herman. What? The transgender children, that's what you're passionate about? Well, exactly what do you want with them? I mean, when you operate on them, you want to do it yourself. I mean, that's the weirdest answer to a political question I've ever heard in my life. I'm passionate about the transgender children. Oh my goodness. He got the nerve to call himself a Christian. This story should be a lesson to us. Just because you lose the first time, just because you lose a second time doesn't mean God intends for you to lose. God wants us to learn the virtue of perseverance. He wants us to learn the virtue of, toughness, spiritual toughness. So don't curl up. Toughen up. M. Now this is going to be a rather disgusting two years we have to contend with because I've already heard Talarico talking about. His battle was about battle between David and Goliath. No, that's wrong. His battle was a battle between the imps and demons of Satan trying to undermine the state of Texas and ultimately our constitutional republic. James Talarico is not a Christian. He's a liar. He is not a Christian. When you go to a church that doesn't even know, can't tell you that we don't know if Jesus actually existed. You're not going to a church. You're going to a cult, a demonic cult in which the pastor, claiming to represent Jesus instead blasphemes his name by raising doubt whether Jesus ever even existed. We have no proof of that. Well, obviously you don't know him, you dummy, because anybody who's had a true encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ doesn't just think or doesn't even just believe he exists. We know he exists. We know it. You know, we talk about faith. And there are aspects of Christ Christianity that we function, with by faith because we can't on any kind of, intellectual basis, know. So, for example, I just learned of someone very dear to me who's been struck with a very serious illness. I have faith for that person's healing, complete, total and absolute. But I can't say I know unless God tells me. And God does speak to me at times in situations like this. But most of the time I can't say I know that this person will be healed. I have faith that the person will. But I've had faith that people would be healed and they didn't get healed. And I won't get into all the theology that goes into that. But I think there are lots of reasons for things like that happening, some of which we know, some which we don't know.
Certainty in Faith versus Doubt, Especially Regarding Jesus Christ's Existence
But there are also some things I absolutely, unequivocally know. If you say, well, you just believe that Jesus exists. You don't know that. No, I know that. I know that Jesus is real. I know that Jesus is the Savior. I know that he is the Son of God, come in the flesh to die on the cross for our sins. I know that he rose on the third day. I'll just believe it. I know it. I know I'm going to heaven. I know it. I just believe it. I know it. So how can you say you know it? There are. There are things that God deposits so deep in you that you know that you know that you know that you know. Okay. And you got Talarico running around in the church. Well, we don't really know that. Jesus. Well, what are you. What are you following? The one who might exist, might have lived, might not. I mean, Talarico, the pastor, probably. Most people going to that church are not Christians. If any of them are Christians, they better get out of there before it's too late, because they're liable to throw away their salvation following those idiots. So he's going to tell me the story right there. David and Goliath. Just like it was a David and Goliath battle. I mean, stop blaspheming God and using these biblical images for your demonic mess.
Critique of Transgender Ideology and Political Figures, Highlighting Moral and Spiritual Concerns
I guess he used the same image after cutting off some little boy's genitalia. It was a David and Goliath battle. There were so many people, the parents, who didn't want me to do it and who didn't want it to happen. But we fought and we. We got Johnny turned into Joan. It was a victory for God. Oh, My goodness gracious. I mean. Ugh. And, you know, I was thinking, it is going to be disgusting to have to hear him for the next two years. Now, don't get me wrong. I don't hate that man. I feel sorry for him, frankly, because he's a deeply confused individual. But I tell you what, I also feel sorry for the people who voted for him. I don't even know how any thinking person could vote for that reprobate. Because he is a reprobate. I mean, like I said, he reminds me of Pee Wee Herman. And you know what Pee Wee Herman was? He was a rather disgusting human being. I don't know whether he's alive or not, but you know what I'm talking about. so there's. Here we are. Okay. Don't curl up. Toughen up. Okay, that's number one. Here's the number two thing I think we need to be aware of. And I wrote a piece about this, which you'll be able to check out on Truth and Liberty. I haven't submitted it yet, but it's on the way. You know, the mistake that people make. And I hope Christians do not make this mistake. I hope Christians never make this mistake. Gas prices are high. Last time I put gas in my car, I Paid close to five bucks a gallon. But I have a big truck and I have to use high tests so my gas is close to five bucks a gallon. I fill up now it cost me 100 to 110, 115 bucks. fortunately I don't commute so I don't burn up as much gas as somebody who had to commute back and forth to a job to send 20, 30 miles away every day. I don't have to do that. but. It is extremely short sighted devote one's temporary economic pain, hardship over the long term interests, spiritual, cultural and economic of your country. It is extremely short sighted but I know people do it. Christians shouldn't do it because look, does anybody really believe that the demon crat party understands or cares about America's free market economy? Does anybody really believe that? I m think that the people who voted for these demon crats, these reprobates, I think the people who voted for them are frankly indoctrinated to believe that somehow, well, some of them voted for them, really believe in that whole philosophy and they're just as demonic as the people they're voting for. So some of the people are like that. But for some of the people may have crossed over who believe that, well, you know, we need balance and we need, sometimes you need to teach the other party a lesson, all that. I mean, I don't know what to say for you M. Because the economy is cyclical. I mean I don't care, I don't care what the policies are, I don't care who is in office. The reality is, I'm not saying it doesn't make a difference. It does. I. Obviously better policies make for a better economy, no question about that. Low taxes, low regulations, you know, fostering entrepreneurship, all of these things help our economy to grow and to move. But the fact of the matter is no matter what policies are in place, the economy moves in cycles. It expands and it contracts. It goes up and it comes down, it grows and it shrinks. We have inflationary periods and then we have non inflationary periods. In a perfect world, none of that would be true. In a perfect world, our economy would just be humming along at 6% growth with no inflation, no problems, jobs for everybody. Everything would always be hunky dory, everything would always be great. But that's not the world we live in. So if I'm facing economic hardship right now, say for example in trying to put gas in my car, and I think, well, okay, well that's because of the Iran war. And so I'm going to vote against Republicans because they've gotten us into a war that's costing me more money at the pump. The fact of the matter is, all of that is going to change. You know, it's going to change. The war is eventually going to end. I mean, to kinetic wars, for all practical purposes, over. Although Donald Trump continues to hold, he holds the card of using force whenever necessary against Iran. Listen, remember, Iran is the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world. Let's remember that Iran has an apocalyptic view of the world, believing in the coming of the 12th Imam, the Mahdi, the equivalent of the Muslim Messiah, who's going to rule the world as a worldwide caliphate. Remember, they believe all that crazy stuff, all that Islamic nonsense. These people are dangerous. If they had a nuclear weapon, how. What impact you think that might have on the economy? If they launched it, what impact do you think that might have? And anybody who believes that Barack Obama was going to stop Iran from having a nuclear weapon. I, don't know what to say for you. Barack Obama couldn't stop a gnat because Barack Obama is a wimp. I'm shocked that he even gave the order to have Osama bin Laden killed, to tell you the truth, because I think Barack Obama is a wet noodle of a man. Yeah, I said it because I mean it. I believe it with all my heart. I mean, this man couldn't even defend his own country. He went around the world apologizing, telling people how bad America is. So what kind of man is that? That's like a man running around telling all his friends about how terrible his family is. Well, it may or may not be true, but you think, what kind of man is that who goes around telling everybody how bad his family is, denouncing his own family? What kind of idiot is that? Would you respect a man like that? I wouldn't. I say, even if it's true, that's none of our business. And you ought to be. You ought to be trying to make your family better and defending the honor of your family, not running around denouncing it to other people. What's the matter with you? That's about as punkish as it gets. And Barack Obama did that his whole presidency. He never had anything good to have. A lot of good things to say about Islam, had a lot of good things to say about homosexuality. He didn't have anything good to say about America. That's what we now got in office, controlling the House and the Senate. And we have to endure this for a couple years. So here is my counsel to you in terms of. Okay, Mr. Jackson, that's all true. What do we need to do? We need to do the same thing we've always done. We've got to keep praying. We got to keep engaging. We've got to keep educating people. We've got to keep working, and we got to keep believing God for the breakthrough that our country needs to get us out of this mess that we're in. As you realize, this victory was a victory for socialism. It was a victory for Islam. It was a victory for the Democratic Socialists of America because they elected several House members. Now, you know, we gotyeah. We've got openly declared socialists now serving in the US House of Representatives. And El Sayed, even though he's not a member of the Socialists, the Democratic Socialists of America, he is. He's a member. He's like Howard Zinn. You, know, the guy who wrote People's History of the United States, one of the worst history books ever written. a polemic against our country that's indoctrinated and brainwashed more Americans to hate their country than any any other single volume ever written. Howard Zinn was a communist, but he would always say, I was never a member of the Communist Party. He was a communist, and he hated America. And El Sayed is a socialist, and he hates America. So we've just got to keep working and praying and believing and asking God to give us wisdom. And, and by the way, I realize something now because, of course, whenever God gives you an instruction, you always hope that you're going to see immediate results from it. Well, just like I showed you in Judges, chapter 20, 11 tribes fought two great battles, lost 22,000 men in one battle, 18,000 men in another, before they ultimately won the victory over the tribe of Benjamin M. That refused to hold accountable the men who had tried to rape their guest, their male guest, and ended up raping to death the concubine that had been turned over to them. All they wanted to do was hold these men accountable. And the tribe of Benjamin said, no, we're not giving you these men, period. No. In other words, homosexuality is no big deal to us, just like the liberals of today. And when they fought them the first time and they suffered this tremendous defeat, they went back to God and said, God, Lord, what is going on? Should we really go up and fight them again? And God said, yeah, go up. They lost 22,000 men, yet God said, yeah, go fight them again. They went up this time lost 18,000 men. Now we're up to 40,000 men. Lord. Oh, Lord. Oh, my goodness gracious, Lord. We're trying to uphold the standard of righteousness and we're getting our heads handed to us. Should you really want to, Did we hear you right? Do you really want us to go up and fight him again? God said, yep, go fight him again. And this time they wanted an, absolute decisive victory. And like I said, pretty much wiped out all the men in the tribe of Benjamin. There were a few left, and they paired them with some women so that they could rebuild the tribe because then they felt terrible that they had, in effect, destroyed, for all practical purposes, destroyed, the tribe of Israel. But of course they didn't destroy it because we know the Apostle Paul was of the tribe of Benjamin. So the tribe of Benjamin was rebuilt. I don't know exactly what the year was that that happened, but that was obviously hundreds of years before Paul came on the scene. That was before, that was long before, David and long before Saul, and David, Samuel, Saul and David were on the scene. So it was hundreds of years, but the tribe of Benjamin was ultimately rebuilt. And the correction was ultimately made. But I'll tell you what, it took, major, it took two major defeats for that to happen. I mean, again, folks, I think that that's God's way of saying, don't expect me to just kind of magically hand you victory because you'll never have the fortitude and the perseverance that you need in order to deal with this fallen world. And God wants us to be people of, ah, perseverance and fortitude and toughness. So I'd say dust yourself off, pick yourself up and say, okay, well, Lord, this is what it is for now we're believing you for victory for the United States of America. And we're going to continue to stand until we get it, period. That's the way I feel. You notice you don't hear me weeping. I'm not weeping. I'm not crying. I'm not happy about the outcome, obviously, but my faith is in Jesus Christ. I'll look to the hills. From whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth. And I know, see, I look, you all know I've talked about my jubilee coming up. My jubilee is coming up, on December 5th and 6th. if you want to learn more about that, go to thecalled.org, the called org t h e c a l l e d thecall.org and if you're in the Virginia area and you want to come by, come on by. We have a banquet on Saturday at 5pm and we have two services on Sunday at 9 and 11am Andrew Wommack is going to be our guest speaker on the Sunday services. And Pastor Cecil Bly from Louisville, Kentucky, he's going to be our guest speaker on Saturday. But I didn't mention that to promote my jubilee. I really said that to say, in my 50 years of, walking with God, victory in any situation has never been a straight line. It has always been something of a zigzag. You start out, you think, well, okay, this is it. Well, no, that's not quite it. You know, you turn here and you go, that. But that's. That's not. But eventually. Eventually under. In every situation. In every situation, God has brought me to victory. God has brought me to overcome victory. Hasn't always even looked like what I thought it might look like. But I'll tell you what, I've always come out victorious. Always. Doesn't happen. Sometimes as soon as I like it, would like it to happen. But I always come out victorious. Always. And that's not bragging on E.W. jackson. That's bragging on God. That's bragging on Jesus. Because he's the one who gives us the victory. As the song says, the war was won by Jesus on a hill called Calvary when he gave his life for you and me Dry your eyes don't you cry Everything is going to be all right Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning time so fight on Fight through the rain Fight through the pain Fight when you're up, Fight when you're down. press through those fears. Press through those tears We've already got the victory. Fight on. And that's what I'm telling you, because that's certainly what I intend to do. Our rampant office. I know what it is to have these kinds of disappointments. and I'm looking at the trend, and believe me, I'm not liking it. But just like the children of Israel had two big battles and two major setbacks, two major defeats, but victory was on the way.
Perseverance Through Setbacks, Drawing Parallels to the Fight Against Injustice
All they had to do is persevere, stay at it, and God gave them the victory. And by the way, it was the same kind of situation. They were fighting against the sexual deviancy and moral relativism and all that and just disgusting behavior and the willingness of the tribe of Benjamin, I guess the demon Crat party of their Time to just justify it and, and make up excuses for it and defend it and all of that. But the children of Israel said, oh, no, no, no, no, no. You are going to pay for this injustice. And eventually they won the victory. I believe God for victory. The Bible says he always causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus. We are more than conquerors through him that loved us. I believe that. Look, my friends, thank you for your support. Thank you for all that you do to make American Family Radio possible and the entire constellation of organizations and ministries supported by American Family association. Go to afr.net to help us. Afr.net and, I just thank you all so much for your continued support and fortitude. So don't you in any way be discouraged. Be disheartened. Don't let it happen. Jesus said, let not your heart be troubled. He didn't say. He didn't say, well, your heart is troubled. That's too bad. I understand. He said, don't let your heart be troubled. Your heart will try to be troubled, but you know, you're not going to be trouble. You're triumphant in the name of Jesus. And that's. I'm going to stand on that. I'm going to stand on that. We are triumphant in the name of Jesus. I don't care what the circumstances look like. We walk by faith and not by sight. So God bless each and every one of you. so you know what to do. It's no different today than it was before the election. It'll be no different tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, the next five years, the next 10 years. I'm going to keep saying the same thing. Stand up, step up, speak up, refuse to back up. Because we cannot be defeated if we will not quit because we are on God's side. God bless everybody.
After a disappointing election, Bishop E.. W. Jackson urges listeners not to lose heart or retreat from public life. Drawing on the account of Israel’s repeated battles against Benjamin in Judge 20, he frames setbacks as a call to perseverance: keep praying, speaking up, educating others, and trusting God through hardship. Jackson also reflects on political polarization, the economy, media influence, and the importance of holding fast to Christian convictions. His closing message is a rallying cry for resilience: stand up, step up, speak up, and refuse to back up.
