Faith leaders across America have been speaking out about this past weekend’s shocking event when a 20-year-old gunman tried to assassinate former president Donald Trump.
In a post on X, Paula White-Cain asked for believers to pray for Trump.
“They have tried to destroy this man from the day he walked down the escalator,” she wrote. “They lied on him, slandered him, tried to impeach him, tried to imprison him and now have tried to kill him. God is with him! Pray for President Donald J. Trump and his family!”

Reverend Franklin Graham, son of the late Billy Graham, also took to X to share his gratitude for Trump’s life.
“I thank God that former President @realDonaldTrump is alive,” Graham wrote.
Perry Stone also posted a statement on Facebook about the miracle of Trump still being alive.
“Only divine intervention! There is no other way to describe what we have seen happen with Trump – except a miracle,” Stone wrote.
“We must pray for God’s protection and God’s will in our lives and in the lives of our leaders,” he continued.
Pastor Jentezen Franklin also joined Paula White-Cain in prayer with the America First Policy Institute the night of the shooting.
“We praise You today that President Trump is gonna be alright,” Franklin prayed.
“We thank You that You were there,” Franklin prayed. “You persevered his life, and You don’t preserve anything You don’t have a purpose for. So, You have a mighty purpose for President Trump. He knows now like never before that he is not immortal, that one day he will stand before You in fear and trembling. And God, make him a man on a mission now.”
Pastor Greg Laurie also spoke on the disturbing incident as well.
“We often speak of someone ‘dodging a bullet,’ but for President Trump, this became reality. We thank God he was spared and pray for his complete recovery,” Laurie wrote on Facebook.
“America stands at a pivotal crossroads, and now more than ever, we need God, we need the Bible and we need the redemptive power of Jesus Christ,” he concluded.
This is a time for us all to reflect on our gratitude to God for miraculously saving Trump’s life.
