"God intervened in the election to stop godless, atheistic agenda in the US" - Rev Graham

Rev Franklin Graham, President of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association has spoken on Tuesday's presidential election that produced Donald Trump as the next President of the United States. The popular evangelist and missionary described the outcome of the election as God's way of stopping "the godless, atheistic progressive agenda"in the country.

"Did God show up? In watching the news after the election, the secular media keep asking “How did this happen?” “What went wrong?” “How did we miss this?” Some are in shock. Political pundits are stunned. Many thought the Trump/Pence ticket didn’t have a chance. None of them understand the God-factor", Graham wrote on Facebook. .


He went on that "hundreds of thousands of Christians from across the United States have been praying. This year they came out to every state capitol to pray for this election and for the future of America. Prayer groups were started. Families prayed. Churches prayed. Then Christians went to the polls, and God showed up.

While the media scratches their heads and tries to understand how this happened, I believe that God’s hand intervened Tuesday night to stop the godless, atheistic progressive agenda from taking control of our country.

President-elect Donald J. Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence are going to need a lot of help and they will continue to need a lot of prayer. I pray that President-elect Trump will surround himself with godly men and women to help advise and counsel him as he leads the nation. My prayer is that God will bless America again!"
