Rev. Franklin Graham: 'Pray That God' Will 'Spare Our Nation From the Evil That is Before Us'
CNS News ^ | 12/28/2020 | Michael Chapman

In a Christmas Eve message about the state of affairs in the United States, Rev. Franklin Graham called on Americans to pray for President Donald Trump and for our nation, that God will spare us "from the evil that is before us."

In the Dec. 24 post on Facebook, Graham wrote, "Our country is in such a mess politically and spiritually. I would like to ask you to especially pray for our nation and our president this weekend."

Pray that God’s hand would be on President Donald J. Trump and protect him, and that He would give him wisdom in the coming days," said Graham.

"And pray that God would spare our nation from the evil that is before us," he added.

"Will you join me in praying?" said Graham. "God might still perform a miracle at the midnight hour. His power is without limits."

Two days before he posted this message, Rev. Graham cited former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) and a column he wrote about the 2020 election.

He quoted Gingrich as follows, "I write this in genuine sorrow, because I think we are headed toward a serious, bitter struggle in America. This extraordinary, coordinated four-year power grab threatens the fabric of our country and the freedom of every American."

America would be safer entrusting her destiny to any nine randomly selected American boys who died on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944 than she is entrusting her destiny to those nine justices serving on the US Supreme Court!

In fact, she was.

He’s not wrong. Personally, I see the country as having crossed the line, and that in its current form the country is beyond saving. And though I too would like to see the country spared and healed, when the murder of innocent babies is condoned, when homosexuality is legalized, when slavery still exists (all condoned and made possible by the Demoratic Party), then I honestly see no hope of that happening.

Yes Pastor Franklin. of course. thinking of another prayer, written long ago in the fields of France that one worked very well to vanquish an evil tyrant.

Father God, we humbly ask that you restrain this immoderate deep state—full of tyrannical officials, crony capitalist billionaires, feckless and venal politicians, and, worst of all, judges and lawyers who will hear any word of legal jargon, but refuse to hear the truth—with which we have been contending this year. That you, Lord, grant us a fair hearing, so that we and the truth may be victorious against our wicked enemies, foreign and domestic, in board rooms and state rooms, who desire to oppress and steal the birthrights of the good People of the United States of America. In Jesus Holy Name i ask, Amen.

My prayer is for God to send confusion and chaos and anarchy into the liberal party so that they turn on each other, and start blowing the whistle on their cohorts to expose the corruption and defeat the lying cheaters all by themselves-

My God cause the democrat party to be seen by the whoel workd for what it truly is- a corrupt cheating party that committed federal felonies and fraud in an ill fated attempt to get their guy into the whitehouse

I love Rev. Franklin Graham...he is a great man....but I also believe that the Lord, God, Almighty also respects and supports free people who help themselves. If the American people do not rise up in massive protest by the millions, to the illegal election that has put an absolute moron Democrat, Joe Biden in the position of POTUS....then America the Republic will die!!! Americans...toss Biden and his whole ilk of low life Democrat cheaters into the nearest garbage bin and install the real winner of the 2020 POTUS Election, Donald J. Trump as POTUS on January 20th, 2021!! Do it..or die America & Freedom Worldwide!!!!!!

American governance has gone from greatness, to mediocrity.

Mediocrity isn’t that bad, but the problem is - we are quickly moving past mediocrity to something bad.

We are already past bad, and the world will see it soon if President Trump reveals everything that has been going on for years. We are at the tipping point, and if we go the wrong way, coming back from it will be virtually impossible without massive bloodshed and indescribable loss. The time to fight is now rather than later. The odds against the good guys winning get worse with the passing of every day. I pray all of the truth comes out now while we have a much better chance to deal with it effectively.

We’ve been at a tipping point since the 2015 when Trump entered the Presidential race and then won.. His Presidency has put a tight wrench on the Demorats ultimate agendas for this nation and at the same time changed the trajectory of this nation. The ship turned!

What’s going on now in this coup was anticipated and we knew it would be possible as the Dems have made no secret at all in their desire to unseat our President for four years now..... the Republicans were not ready nor willing to fight these end battles as a united force.....nor are they now sufficient enough to stop what appears might happen January 20th. They just refuse to come together as a united force!

Graham. “God might still perform a miracle at the midnight hour. His power is without limits.”...

Amen....throughout the scriptures it’s not uncommon for God to act at the last minute. ..and it often occurs in the most unexpected ways... and He uses the most unexpected individuals.

I intend to continue to “Watch” with the hope that God will indeed act “at the midnight hour”....

Part of putting GOD above all is resisting tyrany. The Revelutionary Generation knew this. We do have one thing now, the courts.
