Billy Graham is concerned about the continued moral decline and rejection of God by many in our nation. Now, she is calling for repentance.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent interview with <em>The Christian Post<\/em>, Lotz expressed how God has been progressively erased in society and explained how it would result in divine judgment, as viewed in Romans 1.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod gives us over to ourselves, and I believe that is where we are right now; it really is the judgment of God,\u201d Lotz asserted. \u201cAmerica has a window of opportunity to return to the Lord, but it\u2019s just a window, and it\u2019s going to close. We\u2019re going to find our nation without God, and without Him, we don\u2019t have His protection, we don\u2019t have His wisdom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we\u2019re not careful, we\u2019re going to totally lose our way. America will become unrecognizable. The world is a very dangerous place right now. We desperately need God,\u201d Lotz added.<\/p>\n<p>Lotz is set to participate in <em>The Return<\/em>, a global prayer event, put on by messianic pastor and best-selling author Jonathan Cahn, at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>This event will include leaders from over 150 nations. Those set to participate include Pat Robertson, Dr. James Dobson, Alveda King, Kevin Sorbo, Mike Lindell, Kevin Jessip, Michele Bachmann, Gordon Robertson, Marcus Lamb, Bishop Harry Jackson, in addition to others.<\/p>\n<p>Lotz formerly turned down similar opportunities with Cahn because she felt like revival would not come \u201cuntil we were desperate for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time Lotz has talked about the chaos and demise of our nation. She has addressed the pandemic, economic recession, in addition to the uprise of anarchy by \u201cevil people,\u201d using the deaths of people like George Floyd to spread their \u201cwicked agendas,\u201d <em>Christian Headlines<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s more than unrest. It feels like we\u2019re being attacked invisibly,\u201d she said. \u201cMy prayer is that this is the trigger. If this doesn\u2019t make us desperate for revival, if this doesn\u2019t make us return to the Lord and beg for His mercy, then I\u2019m not sure anything will. We\u2019re in a freefall.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The evangelist and daughter of the late Rev.
