Pastors say there's 'concentrated Satanic attack' against Donald Trump, and they're praying to stop it

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump speaks to the Bethel United Methodist Church congregation in Flint, Michigan on Sept. 14, 2016.

Throughout his campaign to win the White House, Republican Party presidential nominee Donald Trump has encountered a lot of controversies, and has been the subject of black propaganda from his opponents. A Christian pastor thinks he has an idea who is behind these attacks against Trump: the demon itself.

This week, New Spirit Revival Center Church Pastor Rev. Darrell Scott declared that there is a "concentrated Satanic attack" being waged against Trump, who some Christian pastors believe to be God's choice for the next American leader. This is why these Christian leaders are praying hard for the Republican presidential bet.

Speaking at the Midwest Vision and Values Pastors Leadership Conference in his church, Scott recalled that a "nationally known" preacher, whom he did not identify, had already warned Trump about a demonic campaign against him even before he launched his bid for the White House.

"He said there's going to be a demon, principalities and powers that are going to wage war against you on a level that you've never seen before and I'm watching it every day," the Christian pastor said, as quoted by The Christian Post.

Scott, the chief executive officer of the National Diversity Coalition for Trump, led other Christian pastors in the laying on of hands on Trump to ward off the alleged attack and to help him accomplish God's will.

Trump's vice presidential pick, Mike Pence, and campaign leaders Ben Carson, Michael Cohen and Omarosa Manigault also joined in praying for the candidate. In the prayer, Trump was described as "someone that will honour our beliefs and our faith and our feelings."

"Father, we thank you in the name of Jesus for raising up a man for such a time as this. God, we ask you right now that your choice is this choice. We believe, Lord God, that You ordain things. You said all authority is of You. Now God, I ask that you would touch this man, Donald J. Trump, give him the anointing to lead this nation," the pastors said in prayer.
