We can and should fully expect a miracle. I’ve often referenced the story of Gideon from the Book of Judges in which God made sure the odds were as stacked against the Israelites as possible before He brought them victory against the huge Midianite army. He did this so few if any would attribute the victory to the machinations of Gideon or the Israelites. He wanted everyone to know that He had delivered them. If God wills a victory for President Trump between January 6th and January 20th, we should acknowledge that it was a divine action. That means by the time it does happen, nearly every Trump supporter will have lost hope.

I won’t lose hope in God, ever. I know He is the only One who can step in and change things. I still believe, I’m still standing in prayer.
It's easy getting caught up in these earthly matters but once you realize that it's all so ridiculously minuscule in comparison to Universe and God that all doubt and desperation gets replaced with a sense of peace very quickly. No need to advertise it either.
Trump needs to do the insurrection act now!
I'll hold on to some thread of hope. I mentally feel like I ran a marathon though. Even though it's not that late in the day, I feel like I need to go to bed or something.
Lots of people on here tonight losing hope.I think they might be infiltrators. I always knew that sooner or later the enemy would try and drive a wedge between Trump and his base.I note that in his message he did not condemn the occupation, but identified with the protesters.Despite every other politician trying outdo each other with condemnation.
I always have hope in God, but that’s bigger picture. I’ve read the end of the Book dozens of times. He wins in the end. Unfortunately America is not mentioned in the end times prophecy of the Bible. America is not the endgame for God or His people. But God will always take care of His own, and He has a plan (unlike Q) that won’t fail.
Do I still have hope in Trump at this point? No. He either lied last night about Pence or was deceived. He lied about presenting new evidence today. He squandered the last hour of sanity when all of his supporters were listening to him prattle on about the last 4 years, twitter shadow banning, and presenting the fraud in such a haphazard way as to make it a joke. How you start is not important. How you finish is, and he is finishing terribly.
I agree. Last night, Mark Taylor (one of the prophetic voices who prophesied Trump's victory before the first election) warned that this might get to a point where it seems very few of us left will have hope. But that this will give all the glory to God, that we will know without a doubt it was His hand, when our victory comes.
I understand, though, that this would necessarily entail a lot of people giving up hope. And I can't blame them. Truth to be told, my faith that God has had His hands on Trump's presidency has been the main support for my hope in the last 4 years. I used to be very cynical and "doomerish" before November 2016, but Trump's first victory invigorated me with a new layer of faith. If not for that, I would likely be taking a hopeless outlook now as well.
Admittedly, I have spoken against doomers on here from time to time. But my issue was always that I thought the negative comments were counterproductive, more inclined to slow us down, that we would give up and roll over and do nothing. I never saw faith as a call to sit and do nothing, but as an encouragement to keep taking action where appropriate as well as to be patient where appropriate.
Depending on how things unfold for the rest of the day, I may elect to take a break from TheDonald.Win for a little while, maybe a couple of weeks. Just so I can sustain a more faithful state of mind for myself, until the time is right.
Today is the Orthodox Christmas eve. Tomorrow is Christmas. A miracle may be what's in the store for us.
