Franklin Graham Calls Christians to ‘Unite Our Hearts Together in Prayer’ for Biden, Harris By Tré Goins-Phillips for Faith Wire
GNN Note – We are boycotting the Inauguration today and will not be publishing one word about it. Our President, President Trump, has left the building and we are done with the #bidencrimefamily and the deep state swamp rats in Washington DC. A day of prayer is much needed at this time and we will be praying throughout the day. Won’t you join us? /END
The Rev. Franklin Graham, who has been a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump, said Thursday it is time for Christians “to unite our hearts together in prayer” for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.
Graham shared the edification in the wake of an attack by rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday afternoon as Vice President Mike Pence and members of Congress were convening to certify Biden’s Electoral College victory over outgoing President Donald Trump.

“The division in our country is as great as any time since the Civil War,” wrote Graham, president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association as well as its charitable arm, Samaritan’s Purse. “I am calling on Christians to unite our hearts together in prayer for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, and for the leadership in both parties.”
“Pray that everyone will stop the finger-pointing and realize that both parties bear responsibility for the problems we face today,” he continued. “Pray that they will come together and work together for the good of the American people.”

In the aftermath of the violent rioting in the Capitol Building, Graham said he was “deeply saddened” to have seen such chaos unfold in Washington, D.C.
“Our country is in trouble,” he wrote. “We need God’s healing and we need God’s help. Pray for peace and the protection of our nation. Let’s come together — on our knees.”
