Reverend Franklin Graham put a call out on Saturday for people to pray because there is much at stake as Election Day nears.

“Tonight I had the privilege of praying at an event in Greensboro, NC, for President Donald J. Trump. I went in a private capacity, not representing any organization,” Graham said in a social media post.

“It is always a privilege to point people to the only true hope we have — the Lord Jesus Christ. He is what America needs most. Thousands of people prayed together this evening as we asked for God’s help,” he added before calling on people to take action.

“I ask you to pray right now as well. Our country is in trouble, and there’s so much at stake. The election is just a couple of days away and may be the most important election in the history of the U.S. Pray that God will protect us from the evil that is before us,” Graham stated:

Social media users voiced their agreement with Graham.

“Thank you and I hear you. Praying for God’s grace and protection from any…ANY thing that tries to separate or erase the truth behind the very foundation of our country…the United States of America. Lord Father, we are many and believe you are near. Guide and protect us, Father,” individual commented.

“In God we trust…now and forevermore! Dear God, please deliver us from the very evil that is hiding under the cloak of the deep state. We pray that the root of this dark movement be removed and in all else…Lord God…with you all things are possible, but always your will be done,” another person wrote.

In October, the reverend highlighted the seriousness of the upcoming presidential election and pointed voters to the one who is truly the only hope for the nation, Breitbart News reported.

“I was asked to speak in Concord, North Carolina, tonight and lead in prayer at an event with President Donald J. Trump, Dr. Ben Carson, and other faith leaders. I told the crowd that rallies and positive polls won’t win this election—only God can do that,” Graham wrote in his post.

“God is the only hope for Donald Trump and He is the only hope for our nation. Would you take a moment tonight and do what we did inside the convention center—PRAY! Join me in praying for President Trump, for this nation, and for this election?” he added.

Trump (R) and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), are campaigning against Vice President Kamala Harris (D) and her running mate, radical leftist Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), for the White House. Election Day is Tuesday, November 5.

It is important to note that Trump is poised to secure a significant electoral victory in the race, according to Rasmussen’s lead pollster, Breitbart News reported on Saturday.

The outlet said the pollster “sees the current race favoring Trump in the national popular vote, suggesting a larger ‘political realignment’ is underway, and foreseeing an outcome that could echo — or even exceed — Ronald Reagan’s historic landslide win over Jimmy Carter in 1980.”
