FRANKLIN GRAHAM: "GOD HAS GIVEN US A NEW DAY IN THE LEADERSHIP OF THIS COUNTRY"

Franklin Graham: "God Has Given Us A New Day In The Leadership Of This Country"

HELLO CHRISTAIN

Rev. Franklin Graham will be praying and reading from God's word today, as Donald J. Trump is inaugurated as the 45th President of the Untied States. Having led thousands in prayer for the election in all 50 states, Graham has mobilized millions to seek God on this new era of politics. Now, as the time for a new president approaches, Graham again calls us to prayer, and to hope. 

"I told Fox News this morning that it wasn’t Donald J. Trump that divided this country, this country has been divided for a long time," writes Graham on Facebook. "As we are just hours away from inaugurating the 45th president of the United States, we need to all pull together as Americans. Prayer is what will make a difference—God has the answers, if we’ll look to Him."

"Last year I went to all 50 states and prayed with Christians on the steps of every state capitol. We confessed the sins of the nation and our own sins and asked God for help."

Now, Franklin believes that God has given us a new opportunity through our new leadership. "I believe He has given us a new opportunity—a new day in Washington and in the leadership of this country," he writes. "We need to go beyond politics and come together in prayer. Democrats and Republicans have to work together and make choices for the good of the nation."

Now, he urges, is a time for unity, not boycott. "Politicians need to drop their inauguration boycott plans and show unity. Maybe we need to get back to the challenge of John F. Kennedy in his 1961 Inaugural address:

“Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.”"
