As he prepares to lead a prayer march in Washington, D.C., next week, evangelist Franklin Graham said the severe problems besetting the country are ones only the Almighty can give solution to as there is no one else.
In a phone interview with The Christian Post on Thursday about the upcoming prayer march he will oversee next Saturday on the National Mall, Graham explained that his heart behind calling the country to prayer is in part because of the deep divisions over many issues, divides that have been compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic and widespread loss of jobs due to state lockdowns and enforced closure of businesses, especially the pandemic. “I think there’s kind of a boiling point here with many people. We have seen injustice on our streets and some of our communities. The frustration that people aren’t heard, that people are marginalized. It seems that all of this is boiling at the same time,” he said, noting that these tensions are accentuated in an election year where politics often exploits the issues.
There are sometimes you accept that there is a greater power, even with all our technology, yet no one can solve the spiritual darkness besetting America, he emphasized.
