Christian Leaders Urge Nation To Pray After Second Attack
Former President Donald Trump narrowly avoided harm on Sunday when Secret Service agents intervened during an attempted assassination while he was golfing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. The assailant, who attempted to shoot Trump, fled the scene but was later apprehended in Martin County after a witness provided the license plate number of his vehicle.
This incident marks the second assassination attempt on Trump within the last two months. The previous attempt occurred at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where a gunshot grazed Trump’s ear, and the attack resulted in one death and several injuries.
The assassination attempt has prompted responses from prominent Christian leaders in the U.S. Rev. Franklin Graham, CEO of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, urged prayer for Trump, highlighting the seriousness of the situation despite limited details. Rev. Johnnie Moore, president of the Congress of Christian Leaders, praised the Secret Service for their quick response but also demanded greater security measures, suggesting that President Joe Biden should ensure Trump receives the same level of protection as a sitting president.
Worship artist Sean Feucht called for a “fast for America,” urging people to join him in prayer and fasting for three days in response to the attack. He emphasized the importance of spiritual action over mere rhetoric. Pastor Greg Laurie of Harvest Church expressed gratitude for Trump’s safety and called for a reduction in divisive rhetoric and a return to civility, urging Americans to pray for the nation’s leaders.
Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, condemned the assassination attempt as an attack on democratic values and freedom. He called for unity and collective prayer to overcome the forces of evil threatening the nation, emphasizing the need for solidarity and resilience in preserving American values.
The ASSnation attempt & ear injury was a joke & disappointment. I ain’t gonna fast for 3 days but I might pray for efficiency. Trump doesn’t know the meaning of civility, democratic OR American values, unity, or solidarity. He DOES know the meaning of evil. I pray that Kamala & Tim can restore & save our nation.
Are you as stupid as you look? DORK!!!!
I still believe that Kamala Harris is Joe Biden’s REAL daughter.
