I received this word one day as I was praying. It was given at the time that Donald Trump was President, and most things had become very good here in the United States. Many criticized me for it, saying it was not a true Word from the Lord, but I think maybe they may have been wrong. Here it is.
Message of the Lord given 10-13-2017
Oh America, America! A nation I birthed to be a light in darkness. To bring glory to my name as a witness to me. I blessed you with greatness, that you would feed the world, bringing my hope to the hopeless. But you became arrogant and boasted of yourselves as the land of the free, and the home of the brave. So I ask you then: why are you clothed in chains and are trembling as a cold naked child in the winter snow? I hear of your many boasts in how great you are, but you have turned your back on that which made you great. You have slandered the name that is above all names. You have been puffed up with air, with no sustenance within your boastings. You turned from the truth, and have given yourselves over unto the lies of the past. Time and time again I have tried and reasoned with you to take a look at what you are becoming, but in your pride, you have refused. I have tried waking my people up but they remain asleep, refusing to see the light of the dawn. Time and time again I have sent disaster upon you, and you come to me for comfort and release, but your hearts have stayed steadfast from becoming one with me. As I try in my loving kindness to spare you from disaster, you continually run from the light into the darkness. You have become a nation of turmoil and conflict, no longer able to bring any peace, for it has far been removed from you. You have given yourselves over to the gods of this world, leaving the truth of righteousness behind you. You have turned the gospel of repentance into a false hope of grace without turning away from your sin. You have polluted my temple with your many idols, all while offering them up upon my alter as holy and pure as you refuse to rid yourselves of the lusts that burn within you. You have declared that which was holy as unholy and that which was right as wrong. You have raised yourself up as god, but you are not! I and I alone am God, and I will not allow anything that raises itself up against my word to stand. You have lifted your fist into the air against me, and have declared that you are the one who declares right and wrong. And as it was with Adam and Eve, after they had bitten into the lie of thinking they could determine what is right and what is wrong, I cast them from their paradise and into a land of ruin. So you have ignored my warnings. You have turned away from my hand to reach out to you and bring you into the safety of my presence with you. So I declare unto you this. You shall very quickly see that I am no longer with you. My presence is lifted from you, and I am about to shake you up. It will be a shaking like you have never known. I will cause your land to open up and swallow you into it. Many will be gone in an instant. The innocent blood you have shed is crying out to me from the earth, and I will cause it to swallow you up. I have shown you grace and mercy, in many times of not allowing you to be fully removed in the calamities that have come upon you, but you have refused to return to me with all your heart. Yet, this I know. I have a remnant who are still pure before me, who have not been given over to the lies and false gospels that have been taught by those who have claimed they teach the truth, but they have never known Me nor my ways. Greed was their hearts desire. But those that have remained pure will rise up from the ashes, and bring a light of hope to those that remain. They will be empowered with my Name written upon their hearts. They will bring healing oil to the needy, and be a balm to the broken hearted. They will turn to me, and they will know that I am the Lord their God. This was never my hearts desire, but you have come to that place of no return. I have sent you my prophets that have cried out against the sinfulness of this people that your hearts would turn to me. You refused, and now, I refuse you. Let not the prayers of the saints be lifted up that these things will not happen, for I have declared that they shall. I declare that my people pray that a great harvest will come out of the ruins of a people that will bow before me, and allow their hearts to be turned to me. As new life springs up from a great forest fire, so too, will new life spring forth in abundance after the fires of my mercy have come. Let those that are mine be strengthened. Let them put off all foolishness, and put on the robe of my righteousness. For I the Lord have spoken this, and I will do as I have spoken.
