“There’s a feeling almost everywhere that there is something seriously wrong in America,” I wrote in my latest book, “Spirit-Led Living in an Upside-Down World.” That’s stating the obvious for those of us who see the Judeo-Christian values on which our nation was built eroding before our eyes. But with the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on July 13, and then the Democratic powers that be forcing President Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race, many non-Christians are also saying something has gone wrong and are starting to back Donald Trump.
You don’t have to be religious to believe it was a miracle that a bullet aimed at former President Trump’s head nicked his ear instead. Even Trump, not known for his spirituality, said at the Republican National Convention, “It was God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening.” He added: “We will fear not, but instead remain resilient in our faith and defiant in the face of wickedness.”

After the attempt on his life, former President Trump appears to be a bit more reflective, more willing to be led by God through the Holy Spirit, versus the bombastic New York real estate king with whom most of us have been familiar for many years. With his Democratic opponents in some disarray so far following Biden’s withdrawal, I think Trump is better situated for election victory than eight years ago in 2016. Biden’s remarks in his address Wednesday night, while charitable and pleasant, did nothing to increase the appeal of his party’s candidate. Here are five reasons that Trump’s difficulties, rough edges and trials may have prepared him to be reelected to the Oval Office and also fulfill the many prophetic words about his two terms in office.
1. Strong Base Support
One of the primary reasons Donald Trump could earn victory is the unwavering support of his base. Despite controversies and polarizing rhetoric, which I believe are just the result of his being the “disrupter” we need now, Trump’s supporters have remained loyal, perhaps never more so than this past few weeks in the aftermath of the thankfully failed assassination attempt. His base is characterized by high voter turnout and passionate advocacy.
Trump’s ability to galvanize his base is a critical factor in his electoral strategy, providing a reliable foundation for his campaigns. And that includes many in the Christian community who may not like the Republican party or some of Trump’s tweets but who resonate with his policies, if only because they are the opposite of the Democrat policies of pro-abortion, pro-transsexual, open borders, more government spending and more.
