Were The Prophets Wrong About American Presidential Elections 2020?

 Nearly every Christian prophetic voice in America, prophesied that Donald J. Trump will win the elections and be

re-elected to serve as President for the second term. Today, Joe Biden is projected as winner, unless the allegations of voter fraud are proven true and they are large enough to change the election outcome. This is still possible, however, even if Joe Biden does win, it does not necessarily mean that all Christians who said that they heard from God that Donald Trump will have a second term are wrong, and here is why.

The Bible teaches us patterns and is a  spiritual standard against which we must judge all prophecy. In the Bible, we see two types of prophecies. The first type is the one in which God shows us what His will is for the future, but the outcome is still dependent on our actions, and the ones in which He pulls the veil of time away and shows us what actually will happen in the future.

America is a democratic country in which the majority of Americans decide who is going to be their President by voting. This means that the outcome of Presidential elections in America depend on the will of majority of Americans. God respects the free will He has given us, so He will not force anyone to vote for one candidate or another against their will.

I believe that the prophecies given to Christians regarding this election were of the first type. They were revealing His will, but were conditional upon the actions and decisions of American people. God was showing many Americans and believers from other nations who pray for America, what His will for this election was, so that they would pray for discernment for the American people, but there were enough Americans ( if there was indeed no voter fraud) who voted against that vision and rejected God's will for their nation, and they will need to face the consequences of the decisions made by the leaders that they have chosen. This is indeed  is what Jonathan Cahn was warning America against in His book, "Harbinger II". He was not projecting a winner, but he was saying that if majority of American voters chose the candidate with ungodly platform, then God would no longer have a reason to protect America from the overdue judgment that is coming, but even when this happens, God will always protect those who were faithful to Him even in the midst of judgment.

It is also possible that God is going to bring His will to pass in a different way that people expected as theoretically Donald Trump could run for President again in 2024 and be elected for his second term if enough Americans will not be happy with what Biden administration will do or not do during the next four years. I guess, we will see about that when the election results officially come in this year or in 2024.
