I知 Praying For God To Bring Hillary Clinton Down And Confuse Her Mind

Another worthless prayer IGNORED

Yesterday on “Trunews,” Rick Wiles said that he has been praying for Donald Trump before each debate to ask God to protect him and guard him against demonic attacks from witches.

Before the third debate, Wiles decided that he will also be “praying that confusion would cloud Hillary Clinton’s mind and that fear would come upon her.”

“I’m praying that Hillary Clinton will fall in this debate in whatever manner God chooses to bring her down,” he said. “If the witches can pray against Donald Trump, the Christians can pray that Hillary Clinton will fall.”

That worked perfectly!

The other prayer, not so much.

and people would have commented that someone was in need of mental help. Even the religious who saw such comments as outside the realm of how they see their religion.

That still happens to some degree, but more and more people will defend that line of er...reasoning...simply because they have become so tetchy about their own religion, having bought into the ridiculous lie that religion is under attack.

It's gotten to be more acceptable to defend, excuse, and even embrace the fantastical than to call it out for what it is - pure ignorance.

those prayers seem to have tongue tied Hillary and turned her into a blith - no that was Trump! Must've missed his target.

Needs to work on that aim a bit.

Be good and pray, and you earn currency that can then be cashed-in for petty favors. That's the idea some people have, anyway. If it doesn't happen, it must be that they hadn't earned enough chips for the intervention requested, or those "mysterious ways."
