Hundreds of Thousands of American Christians Call Upon God During Prayer March 2020
Hundreds of Thousands of Americans Call Upon God During Prayer March 2020
The Bible says, “Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
Yesterday in Washington, DC, hundreds of thousands of Christians did just that. I’m so grateful for each one who made the effort to come — from all across the country — and to pray that God would help our nation in this time of need. We confessed our sins and the sins of our country, and we asked that the Lord would help us, heal us, and turn hearts to Him. We prayed for our leaders—Democrat, Republican, and Independent—as Scripture instructs.
Thank you to Dr. Alveda King, Tony Perkins, Darryl Strawberry, Pastor Skip Heitzig, Bishop Harry R. Jackson, Jr., Pastor Greg Laurie, Pastor Robert Morris, Pastor Paula White-Cain, Pastor Jentezen Franklin, Pastor Jack Graham, former Representative Michele Bachmann, Pastor Andrew Brunson, Congressman Frank Wolf, Jerry Prevo, Dr. Kelvin Cochran, Navajo Nation Vice President Myron Lizer, Lt. Col Oliver North, my son Lt. Col. Edward Graham, and my sister Anne Graham Lotz who led us in prayer at seven stops along the route of the Prayer March. And we are incredibly thankful that Vice President Mike Pence and Second Lady Karen Pence joined us at the Lincoln Memorial so that we could pray for them in person.
It is my hope that even though the March is over, the focus on prayer has just begun. I hope we have been revived and reminded of the need for prayer and the power in prayer.
If you didn’t watch it yesterday, be sure to watch the livestream program hosted by my daughter, Cissie Graham Lynch and Governor Mike Huckabee.
Share in the comments below if you came and where from, or if you prayed from home.
God bless you.
— Rev. Franklin Graham
