TB Joshua has prophesied that President Donald Trump’s challenger, Joe Biden, will emerge as the next president of the United States.
Citizens in the US are deciding today, November 3, 2020, who will lead, in the next four years, the ‘most powerful country’ in the world.
Incumbent President Trump of the Republican party is facing a stiff challenge from Democratic hopeful Joe Biden in a poll that has already tilted in favour of the former US president, Biden.
According to the BBC, Mr Biden has a healthy national lead in the latest polls but his advantage is narrower in key states which could decide the final result.
In the American voting system, the president is not elected by a popular vote as is the case in Nigeria, but by a system known as the electoral college, where a group of election officials – 538 of them – would finally vote to decide who wins, after voters have decided at the state level.

Back to the prophecy, TB Joshua, who is the leader and founder of The Synagogue, Church of All Nations, hinted that President Trump’s undoing would be his tongue.
“What is happening in the American election is as a result of the power in the tongue,” Joshua said in a video posted on his YouTube channel, Emmanuel TV.
“The word we speak determines the life we enjoy. The tongue can either work for us or against us – death and life lie in the tongue.”
He went on: “We Christians would have loved it to go the way we wanted,” he said, echoing Mr Trump’s popularity among African Christians, particularly Nigerians. “But the Bible says it is never proper to base our faith on our improvement after prayer.”
He said Christians should not be worried by Mr Trump’s potential failure at the polls but rather derive joy that the new Supreme Court Judge, Amy Coney Barrett, who was nominated by the President, will be an instrument of check.
“There is likely going to be pockets of resistance [after Biden’s victory] here and there but nothing will change,” Joshua said.
“Let me reserve what I am seeing until the inauguration of the new president,” he added.
Meanwhile, last month, South Sudan President Salva Kiir Mayardit invited TB Joshua after the Nigerian prophet’s prophecy came to pass.
In March, Tb Joshua was criticised for allegedly issuing false prophecies, after the 57-year-old predicted that the coronavirus would disappear before the month-end.
