She quoted Trump as saying, “We worship God, not government,” as a segue into her prayer. After invoking the name of Jesus and thanking God for the “great United States,” the president and God’s blessings, she prayed, “Father, You have raised President Trump up for such a time as this,” invoking blessings from Psalms and the book of Daniel about revealing “the secrets and the deep things” to the president. Then she began to pray against “principalities and powers”—terminology rarely heard or understood outside the walls of a charismatic or Pentecostal church.

This binary worldview, held by virtually all Spirit-filled Christians, played a major role in electing Donald J. Trump as our nation’s president in 2016. Now, four years later, the spiritual battle lines have been drawn, and the stakes are even higher.
