This is our Psalm 37 moment.
The righteous are speaking to one another. They are baffled. How did it come to this? Just when we had hope, a massive, withering, crushing attack strikes the presidential election.
How can this election be close? No one in their right mind can fall for this. Or can they?
A widespread heaviness and sorrow grips God’s people over this election. What caused this sudden turn?
It is a masterstroke of Satan. It is his tried and true formula. He has done it over and over again.
Here is how he does it:
-Introduce a Trojan horse under the guise of justice and equality.
-Create a ruling class who will do anything for money and power.
-Use them to place puppets in government and media. Control the teleprompter. Let them mouth peace—but only as a mouthpiece.
-Seduce young minds to believe in something that has never worked—and will never work. Social justice is the perfect bait.
-Foment hate toward everything that made America prosperous, strong, and safe.
We have come to America’s darkest hour. We are witnessing a vast coalition of liars churning out the largest disinformation campaign in history.
Never have the wicked advanced like this. Never have the righteous been disgraced like this.
Is there any hope? What should we do in the face of this evil?
What I do know is that we must not falter before the wicked. Not now, when we are so close to a miracle.
Satan is using smoke and mirrors. He has created a mirage to knock the wind out of the remnant of God! How can we break the spell?
That is where Psalm 37 comes in.
The Holy Spirit said, “Read Psalm 37 again.” When I did, I got the shock of my life! Suddenly, it was as if David was speaking directly over this election.
I cannot do it justice in one blog, but here are four explosive truths that will wake you up and put you back in the race.
1. Do not fret. Evil will be cut down.
David said, 1 “Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.”
The current administration of our government, along with the news media and the leftist billionaires will fail. God has already passed sentence on them. As David says, “soon” they will be mowed down by their own evil.
Fret is a complex word. It is a combination of fear, dread, vain imaginations and deception. In all cases, fretting begins by believing a lie.
But when God opens your eyes to see through the lie, you will become powerful. More powerful than you can imagine.
Tucker Carlson said, “When honest people say what’s true, calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink and they become weaker. That’s the iron law of the universe. True things prevail.”
2. Do “good” even when it seems futile.
David said, 3 “Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.”
Trust means that, to you, God is true and every man is a liar.
Feeding on His faithfulness means to recount your past victories. Tell this present threat that it will be like everything else that ever tried to attack you!
1 Samuel 17:36 reveals that David had done this very thing. “Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God.”
37 Moreover David said, “The Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.”
You are doing it for God. You do not need instant results. Everything you do will bring results. God’s word is in you and it cannot return void. Even when it seems that God is doing nothing—He is doing more than you can imagine.
3.You are on a mission for God, and by God.
David said, 5 “Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.”
“What I do, I do by the power and authority of Almighty God.” If you can say that with conviction, you will not fear a thousand enemies.
You did not go to war by your own volition or power. Your actions are sanctioned by heaven. And all of heaven will stand behind you.
Your presence on this earth at this dark hour is not punishment. It is an honor.
4. You are the true justice warrior, not the Left.
David said, 6 “He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday.”
Justice and equality are just punchlines to them. The only source is God—the creator of justice and equality. David is telling us that we are chosen to bring these blessings to the world.
No politician can save America. America’s greatest hope is what you carry. That is why God has placed a wall of fire around you. That is why by standing in your identity as a soldier of Christ, you are indestructible.
Rest in the Lord.
Finally, David says, 7 “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.”
How can we rest when evil is on the march? We can rest because we know how the victory will come and that it will come.
What we are seeing in this election is a wicked scheme. We are not running against one person, but a multi-headed monster. But that monster is no match for God.
What we are watching in this campaign is a wicked scheme. A billion dollar hoodwinking. In an instant God can bring up the house lights and expose the lie.
David was so calm he could eat in front of his enemies. Psalm 23:5, “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies…”
Let us rest in the Lord. Then let us rise to do our duty. Every step we take from here on in will be intentional. It will be infused with purpose. It will operate from a place of trust in God.
THERE IS STILL A LIMITED AMOUNT OF FREE SEATS TO OUR SUPERNATURAL SOLUTIONS BRUNCH IN TULARE
Thank you for this good reminder.
Thank you for this powerful word. Love your boldness to stand.
Greetings Pastor Mario. I just want to say thank you for what you are doing for God and Country. I am wondering if you are possibly coming to Florida for a meeting before the election? I am thankful you are speaking out and I believe Floridians need to hear the same message especially the Spirit-filled churches and the ones Christian churches. So if you have a time that you are coming, please let me know so much Appreciate you be praying for you and your ministry, God bless ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing this I really needed this today it lifted me up I can feel the power of Almighty God reading the message
That was very insightful. I so appreciate your emails and I watch you on Wednesday’s. I pray for you and your tent events. Thank you for stepping up as a real man of GOD! The truth and only the truth!!!!
GLORY!!!!!
I worked with the Prayer Team when you visited Colorado Springs and while standing by the tent exit on the right side of the stage there was suddenly this tall blonde woman standing next to me. When I greeted her I knew her accent was Australian. She said to me, “Paul, it was so difficult to get out of my country. I had to show a vacc’s card at the border of every territory just to get to the airport and I barely made it out to get here. Australia and the rest of the World are counting on America to take down the darkness and expose this socialist plot to the World. are praying for you to be strong.” It broke my heart that my country is so far from being prayer warriors against the enemy. Stand firm on His Word and he will prevail before us! I am a Child of The One True4 king and a Soldier in The Army of The Living God! Who dare defy His Army! Blessings, in Him, always! Your Brother in Christ and fellow Warrior, Paul Mikoll
Praise God Thank you Father for your Goodness to the Children of men Blessed be the GOD ELSHADII WE GIVE YOU THANKS
Thank you for sharing
Pastor Mario Murillo I Have Registered, I Just Have No Way Of Getting There. I Don’t Even Have A Vehicle And Jesus Financial Didn’t Show Up Yet.
Words matter. Don’t have a ‘defeatist’ attitude. Start by thanking God for the ride He will provide for you to the poll. Ask those you know for a ride. All things are possible with God. It is time for the remnant to take a stand and to also stand on God’s Word. We are praying for you to stand strong in the name of the Lord. God placed you/us here for such a time as this. It’s time we all start acting like it. We are God’s Army on earth. Put your spiritual armor on, lace the boots tight, and stand strong in the Lord.
Paul Robertson, make it known that you need a ride and lunch money to get there within your community’s churches. God hears you and will make a way.
Remember July 13, when God intervened to spare the life of Donald Trump. The whole world witnessed this. God has a perfect plan and purpose for Donald Trump, and when it is accomplished, in a miraculous way, God alone will be glorified.
Wow. This is great.
I thought I was the only one feeling this way. The ole devil is whipping our a$$. But soon, God will step into the picture and whip his.
I recommend that Pastor Murillo watch the movie, “Prince Caspian”. This is one of the movies from “Chronicles of Narnia”. Boy, does it speak to our time. There are symbols and metaphors all through it alluding to the conflict between good and evil.
1. Prince Caspian is driven from the land of Narvia by his evil uncle who steals the throne and crowns himself king. Sound familiar?
2. Four former kings and queens of Narnia: Peter, Susan, Edmond and Lucy, and other Narnians help the rightful Prince gain his throne back through challenges (includes a dual and a war) to the evil king and his minions.
3. The dual is fought at The Stone Table. This table is a metaphor for the Cross. Interesting that the dual takes place there.
4. Aslan (allegorical figure for Jesus and possibly the Holy Spirit) joins the fight to take back Narnia.
5. During this allegory the four kings and queens of Narnia (who, in real liife, actually live in London during WWII) join in the fight and finally beat the white witch (symbol of the devil and his minions).
Even though it’s just a story, C.S. Lewis wrote the Narnia books to teach his family members about Christ and the Gospels.
Your article is so right-on re your upcoming election. I am embarrassed to say I am a Canadian – praying we will have a change in leadership in our next election. Believing for a miracle for President Trump on Tuesday. All things are possible to those who believe.
I’m a Canadian who stands with you!👍
I am greatly encouraged by this
Psalm 37 and I am reading Psalm 2, now is not a time to back up, shut up, but to speak up, yes God on the throne, but he is waiting for saints to WAKE UP, and take their rightful place, as his ambassadors, I for one am tired of this “Que Sera” attitude, I do believe God has a remnant who will speak truth, they have been hidden away, for such a time as this, man will judge on the outward appearance, but God judges the heart. They are on assignment from the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
“I completely agree with you Mario. I take courage and confidence away from your words and purpose to “having done all to stand, will stand therefore . . .”
God bless you now and your ministry in this hour.
Dear Mario,
Thank you for bringing hope to God’s people. If they have hope they can fight. The pollsters told the truth about Joe Biden’s polls, only because they wanted to get rid of him. Kamala is all they got – so now they need to lie. For 2 reasons. Discourage the people of God – say they have no chance for victory. Try to show that the margin is close so they can cheat. There are 2 pollsters – not as corrupt as the rest. Rasmussen and Nate Silver. But even they are not really correct. The Silent Majority exists but does not openly show their cards – due to serious and dangerous backlash. They want to keep their vote a secret. When pollsters call to speak – they usually say – “undecided”. Some may try to throw off the scent – by falsely claiming they will vote for Kamala! It is through fear of intimidation and attack. Warriors for Christ – ignore the polls – most are being manipulated. Kamala is totally disliked by most people.
Dan Bongino – gives a way forward. Execute. Every one take 10 or more people – to vote. Minimum 10. Vote early. There may be an attack on the voting apparatus. Black outs on election Day! Follow your vote. So important.
Expose the bad Marxist Policies of Kamala, in every way possible. Expose the lies of the Left. RNC – must have 1000s of Poll watches and lawyers. Never ever – leave the voting station. Eyes and ears everywhere! Report every suspicious move. Challenge. Follow the Trump policy – “Too Big To Rig”. Pray all the time. Never stop. Jesus said – “Ask and ye shall receive” – so keep asking God – for His help. Nothing will succeed without Him.
With God on our side, we cannot lose. But we must do our part and give Him all the Glory. Praying for Donald Trump for God’s help at the debate. ABC is evil and Marxist. May God bless President Trump and his followers. Vyvette – Australia.
Amen.
Pastor Mario, I read Psalm 37 this morning and felt encouraged. He calls us to REST in Him, TRUST Him ,DELIGHT in Him and not fret or be angry. He LAUGHS when the enemy llots
against the rightHouse and he gnashes at bom with his teeth. I am waiting to listen tonight for Hisligh. Only our powerful Lrd can bring confusion on the evil as they lie and lie and lie. I have really enjoyed hearing your messages and seeing signs and wonders at your tent meetings. WAIT and see what God is about to sow HIMSELF strong…….
Mario
I thank God for you!! This is so right on. Contact me or arrange for me to contact you. There is much we should discuss.
Stay strong IN THE LORD. Psalm 46 also
Mario Murillo your reminds of God’s superiority,God’s faithfulness was really as cold water to a thirsty land.
God bless you!
Thanks
Wow, thanks for this encouragement! I’ll be sharing this with my prayer group and family. Praying for God to make your path straight and true, Mario! So be it, in the name of Jesus!
So thankful for your ministery!
Thank you for this encouraging blog. There are so many verses that speak to waiting and trusting in God. Jesus came in the fullness of time. We must fix our gays on God and him alone.
Praise God for this encouraging word!
Please come to “California East” (New Jersey)
“Your presence on this earth at this dark hour is not punishment. It is an honor.”
I love this!
Great encouragement, General Mario! Thank you!
Praise the Lord! Psalm 37 has been my go to strength for many years. Thank you for sharing His Truth!
Right on Mario! Thanks for
encouraging the body of Christ. We do need to stand
up and speak up and do what
is right in God’s eyes, no matter
what it is. We can’t compromise Godly values in
any area of life!
This is one of the most encouraging word I have heard concerning this election. It brings strength and determination to the church.
Thank you for this post- I have been hearing the same things from the Lord. It’s nice to get confirmation. I pray that you will continue to share the truth and that truth will set many free.
I love how Mario puts it king David so calm could eat right in front of his enemies God bless you Mario Murillo your preaching very needed an welcomed to my heart
Amen and amen! You speak truth! I am so excited to hear you speak in Cleveland, TN next month! Praying for your safety!
Amen and Amen! Thank you for sharing your faith and courage ✝️👍🏼🇺🇸
Thank you for lifting us up in His Power and Might and Truth
Amen, and amen!!!God will never leave us nor forsake us! We as christians have to do our part, God has already taken care of everything. It is not time for us to sit back in recliners, it’s time for us to standup and run with what God has given us(His word) and fight, fight, like never before. We shall not, we will not stop!
Mario,
You and those who walk with you are America’s true leaders. I am an Australian who knows our nation depends on a strong, Godly America. May the LORD watch over and guide you for many years to come.
Hallelujah! Thank you for this encouraging post Mario! We have read the back of the book and we know that (with our awesome God) we win!!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow, praise Him all creatures here below…Praise stills the avenger – let there be a mighty shout of PRAISE to our God and King!
But what if you don’t particularly like either candidate? What if you feel apathetic about this year’s election? Pastor Gary makes the argument that voting is not just a right, but a duty, and he helps us to understand how Christians can be involved in the political process.

19:32 – What can we do to advance the Kingdom of God for the glory of God, and to stem the tide of evil in our land until Jesus comes?

Thank you. Please teach more on corporate prayer and the power of “us”.
Thank you oh God 💕 thank you Mario & Michelle Murillo for your obedience unto GOD 💕 LOVE HUGS PRAYERS 💕 BLESSINGS PRECIOUS ONES 💞 HERSHEY PA USA (” MAMA D”)(79) WIDOW 21YEARS SHALOM 💕🔥🔥🔥🫂
Good word,thank you for your work. I pray for you and your team daily.
Good word for this moment. My prayer is that Satan will overstep and expose his true self for the world to see. So often the young are emotion driven but God can open their eyes and ears then watch out.
AWESOME WORD and so needed in this hour! LET GOD ARISE IN HIS CHILDREN TO DO MIGHTY EXPLOITS!!
I do not believe evil will be cut down if those that name the Name of Jesus do not get on their knees and become Revived in The Holy Spirit.
The choice is deliverance through Repentance or Divine Discipline through a leftist persecution.
WHAT A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. WHAT CLARITY. WHAT DEPTH AND YES ABOVE ALL THE MARK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT’S WISDOM. THANK YOU AGAIN BROTHER MARIO FOR SPEAKING OF THE TRUTH AT SUCH A TIME AS THIS AS ONLY YOU CAN.. ALL OF US VALUE YOU AND LOVE YOU. YOUR OLD FRIEND BROTHER TOMMY
God Is good. He never fails. Amen
God is Good, He never fails. Hallelujah!
Thank you Mario for sharing this, and all that you do. I’ve been listening to Psalm 37 nearly every day for months to help me not fret or get angry, and to focus on the truth. God has got us covered. PTL!!
Love and Shalom 💜
I no longer listen to the LYING fake media, I go to foreign media to get the truth.
I have no doubt God will deal with the wicked. The Bible says you will look for them, but not find them. My eyes are wide open.
THERE it is, brother Mario! “Through GOD we shall do valiantly, for HE IT IS Who will tread down our enemies.” The so-called giants of the left are bread for us, and we’re NOT turning back, we’re NOT backing down. We’re going in to dine with God on God’s promises for America, armed for spiritual battle in faith, believing – and voting the will of the Lord this November!
please podcast your tent meeting, i like to watch
Thank you for this encouragement! We need to stand and be on the alert! Continue to pray!
AMEN AMEN AMEN AND AMEN! WE ARE THE REMNANT OF ABBA FATHER GOD NOW WE STAND IN FAITH AND IN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF ABBA FATHER GOD NOW ALL WE NEED TO DO IS REPENT AND SEE THE SALVATION OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR KING JESUS NOW IN THE MIGHT NAME OF JESUS! PSALM 37 NOW!!!
This blog comes at such a crucial time in history. It truly confirms my belief that my faith must be grounded in His faithfulness. I will not fear. I will stand firm with my Lord!!!
Thank You…I needed these words of encouragement 🙏🏽
“Fret begins by believing a lie”. I never put that together, but I now see 💯
If I fret over Evil ‘winning’…
If I fret over Evil ‘gaining victory’
If I fret over the recent “Polling”😳
I’m believing a lie!!
I’m believing that God can’t expose that Lie, that God can’t do the Impossible, that God has fail us…that our Victory is a Lie.
It’s on me ~ to know that I serve THE GOD of Impossible✝️
I fully expect the democrats to say they won whether they did or not, just like in 2020. I have two ideas if they do. (1)Do you think the conservative states should have their national guard troops ready in case they try to steal it again? (2)Or do you think we should have Trump and Elon Musk negotiate to divide the U.S. One half live under Trump’s leadership and one under the democrats? In that scenario, conservatives under Trump would create their own government, military, schools, infrastructure, etc. At this point, America is already divided between good and evil, politically and culturally. Why not try to peacefully divide the U.S. instead of having a civil war? I know God is in control and I know we should pray and fast, which Christians are doing; but should we also have a strategic plan like one of the two I suggested? I highly respect you and I’d love your input.
Thank you Mario!
I have been reading Psalm 37 regularly to navigate the evil we clearly see. Just yesterday morning I read it again and looked up “fret” and then today this comes to my email. THANK YOU GOD!
Also, I have been considering how David took out Goliath and we are in the same role. We are to not become subjects of the present day Philistines in the form of their demonic ideologies. God let us rise up like a multitude of David’s!
I believe when David flung that stone from his sling, he didn’t even care what Golith was doing or even watching to see what he was doing. I believe he was watching to see what that stone was doing. We, too, need to get our eyes off this Giant and keep them focused on the Rock.
Mario, thank you for your work in this hour. You may want to pass along the info to the National Faith Advisory Board’s Pre-Debate call today at 5PM (PT) with Rev. Jentezen Franklin, Paula Cain-White and others praying LIVE with President Trump (unmuted). Last time Pre-Biden/Trump Debate, 20,000+ of us prayed along with them in real time (muted). It is open to all. If you wish to register, go to http://www.nationalfaithadvisoryboard.org and sign-up, and share with your friends. More prayer = more power of God evident, as last call before the debate where truth and light were shown and pre-failed assassination attempt. We need to unify around the Throne of God in intercession in this hour, like the Brits did in World War III in the Big Ben Minute every day – turned the tide of that war. Blessings my friends.
Right on, Brother Mario! How foolish for the “church” to trust in human government.
“Of th increase of HIS government and peace, shall be NO END.” Isaiah 9:7
Bless, Brother.
I pray for you to come to Cincinnati.o or Tim Sheets church in Middletown, Ohio.
The sad part is that the church has been lied to by Christian leaders who are joining in with the Woke crowd, under the guise of social justice. They are totally for open borders and believe it is racist to close them. The Enemy has come in like a Trojan Horse and tricked these people by using their compassion for people, but what they are compassionate about is based on a lie. These people even hold the issue of the open border and allowing all these poor people to come in, over the issue of being pro-life. Pray that God will take the veil off their eyes. This article is very good and helpful.
Thank you Mario….what a reminder to pray that faithful Psalm….when I was going thru a divorce in the 6o’s I became a new believer, & while waiting for the judge to call me, God instructed me to read Psalm 37 for 8 hrs…..every promise in that Psalm came to pass in my life…..thank you for strengthening my faith in what God can & will do for those that love Him…..I am unable to come to any of your meetings, as I am 81, wheelchair bound & financially hard pressed…but I am praying for God to continually bless you & your team for all you do…..
marvelous, psalms 37 is a great comfort to all of us, as we approach the great tribulation. it is comforting to know that God will be with us, all the through it all, and see us protected until his second coming, immediately after the tribulation of those days.
Matthew 24 – “Immediately after the tribulation of those …

Thank you Mario for the encouragement . It also Confirms what we also are going through in govt job locally. I know that God is our true boss and sees everything at work place that is going on and will work it out for all good as well as what’s going on in our world and elections. God has never failed us and never will. We must stand firm and continue to do the right thing as we go our way each day but letting God work out what we can not see but that he can. We must continue to trust the God in us and his promises. God bless you! You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Great message. I am going to sign up and read those verses of the Old Testament in church .
AMEN and I laugh at their schemes. They think they can live forever in a machine! They will live forever but nit in a machine but either in Heaven or the lake of fire with their deceiver! Then I laugh again at their supposed smartness (and think how dumb they are). I love your word! May GOD richly bless your Ministry!
God bless you, Mario. May the Lord our God set you on high, comfort and defend you, send you help from the sanctuary and cause all your plans to succeed.
