The recent election has left us with many lessons we need to think about—particularly for the body of Christ. In this critical moment, God is speaking clearly to us as Christ-followers who are engaged in the culture, highlighting the importance of our work and the direction we must take as we move forward in both ministry and service to others and our personal commitment to Jesus.
We saw many incredible victories around the nation as numerous Bible-believing Christians were elected or reelected to office. People who honor the sanctity of human life, protecting our children and grandchildren from harmful ideologies and policies, and those who try to promote religious freedom won in many cases.

Our organization, Christians Engaged, saw many victories as we mobilized more than 850,000 Christian voters in this election and every election that lies ahead. What we are building together offers a distinct approach to civic engagement, one that combines faith with action. As we reflect on the election, we must continue to allow God to move us forward and see how God can even use us in a greater way.
Here are the key things this election experience taught us that we, as Christians, need to cling to for the days ahead.

1. Prayer is powerful; it cannot be an afterthought. First and foremost, God hears our prayers, and He answers them. But prayer cannot be something we do only in emergencies. What if prayer became our lifestyle? What if our churches returned to being true “houses of prayer”?
In Mark 11:15-17, Jesus cleared the temple, declaring that His house should be called a “house of prayer for all nations.” We must reflect on this, not just as a call to action for our churches but as a personal challenge for our individual lives. Prayer can transform us and our nation. If we allow God to use us in the place of prayer, the results can be extraordinary.
