Editorial Special Section: Ricci Johnson-Wilson: “Reign in Behind Me!”

Message : Ricci Johnson-Wilson Date: August 23, 2024    Source : World for Christ Ministries

A large chunk of our family went camping a couple weeks ago. On day two, I was sitting in my tent in the early morning hours and as I picked up my Bible to spend time with the Lord before everyone awoke, the Lord said, “The Judgment of Jehu is here…reign in behind Me!”

I immediately opened my Bible to 2 Kings 9 to refresh my memory regarding this unconventional King of the Northern Kingdom. I remembered clearly the Word the Lord gave me back in 2020 about this issue saying, “the Judgment of Jehu would mark President Trump’s Second term.”

What is the Judgment of Jehu?

2 Kings 9:1-9  “And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead: ² and when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber; ³ then take the box of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.”

“Gird up thy loins” is God-Speak for hurry up, prepare to run, this mission requires immediate action.

The Scribes teach that this unnamed prophet was none other than Jonah, the one who was sent to Ninevah later in his life. At this time, he was young and yet unknown but had been under the tutelage of Elisha at the School of the Prophets.

2 Kings 9:4 “⁴ So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead. ⁵ And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain. And Jehu said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee, O captain. ⁶ And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel. ⁷ And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezebel. ⁸ For the whole house of Ahab shall perish: and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel: : (prophesied in 1 Kings 14:10-11)  ⁹ and I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah: (prophesied in 1 Kings 16:3-5, 11-12) ¹⁰ and the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.”

Couple things:

First, this is the second anointing of Jehu. 1 Kings 19:16 Elijah anointed him while Ahab was still king, this was about 15-17 years earlier. I think it’s important to note also, that Jehu is the only Northern King to be anointed and that’s likely because of the call and commission of God upon his life.

Secondly, Jeroboam and Baasha led Israel into such Idolatry, their lineage was completely cut off by the Lord. Ahab lineage is next in line for this type of judgment from the Lord.

Continuing on in 2 Kings 9:11

“¹¹ Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said unto him, Is all well? wherefore came this mad fellow to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and his communication. ¹² And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee king over Israel. ¹³ Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king. 

Jehu, 14-15 years later, has the anointing, and the commission of the Lord to execute His justice in the land and his men—the warriors—reign in behind him.

“¹⁴ So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria. ¹⁵ But king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your minds, then let none go forth nor escape out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel. ¹⁶ So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram. ¹⁷ And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace? ¹⁸ So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. (AMPC says “Reign in behind me!”) And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again. ¹⁹ Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. ²⁰ And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously. ²¹ And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite. ²² And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?”

The hammer of justice falls

I want to address a few things here:

The Transfer of Power: When Joram approached Jehu here, we have to remember, for all intents and purposes, Joram was king. He wore the crown. He could have commanded those men to take Jehu out, but he sensed the transfer of power. Jehu now wore the mantle and Joram felt it when he approached him. The mantle of Kings and Presidents, Prime Ministers and so on, is incredibly weighty. This is why they say Presidents can age up to 20 years in a 4-year term, because it’s a heavy burden to carry a nation. If you are not mantled to do so, you will age at an even faster rate.

This mantle also equips world leaders to engage with one another on a fairly level playing field. There’s mutual respect, even between leaders of the free world and dictators, large or small, they meet on that same playing field of respect.Here in this passage, we see that Joram was no longer able to reign his men in, they were reigned in behind God’s chosen candidate, Jehu.

2)     The Fear of God is falling on the land:  Jehu asks, “What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?” This is a power-packed statement, isn’t it? Apart from being so politically incorrect modern-day social justice warriors would be left in tears on the floor over this statement, we also know that Joram could have had Jehu’s head removed if he still had the mantle of the crown. However, the fear of God was falling upon the land as the righteous and Holy Justice of His Hammer was sweeping across the areas of injustice in the nation of Israel in this moment.

The Hammer of Justice falls on the Injustices: Jezebel, we learn in 1 Kings 16:31, 1 Kings 18, was the wife of Ahab. She was instrumental in ushering in the horrific idolatrous practices of Ba’al and Ashtaroth worship. Even though God used Elijah mightily to expose and bring judgment on the worship of Ba’al in 1 Kings 16, over the last decade and a half, Jezebel managed to recover and implement these horrific crimes against their nation’s most innocent again. Now is the time, God is releasing the Hammer of Justice on Ahab, Jezebel and their idolatrous ways! 

Worship of Baal and Ashtaroth

What was the worship of Ba’al and Ashtaroth?

• The worship of Ba’al involved child sacrifice. They had hollow bronze idols made with outstretched arms for your sacrifice. The priests would fill them with wood and set the wood on fire. The entire idol would heat up to a flaming red color and as the priests and dancers chanted and banged on their drums, they would place their baby upon the glowing hands of that idol. The arms would be hoisted back, and the baby would roll into the belly of the idol. The drums would beat louder to drown out the screams of the infant.
• The worship of Ashtaroth involved lude and lascivious acts with temple prostitutes, many of whom were young boys who’d been castrated and young girls who’d been dedicated to the temple for this purpose. In addition to this, men and women were involved in the ceremonial practices, lavish orgies ensued and women would become pregnant, 9-10 months later, these children would be offered in a ceremonial ritual to Ba’al. It was a vicious cycle of idolatry and bloodletting in the nation.

Sounds like the prequel of Planned Parenthood.

This is why the judgment had been proclaimed and now, judgment was here as we read in 2 Kings 9:23-28 which details the death of Joram and Ahaziah the King of Judah, both direct descendants of Ahab.

How Jehu came into a position of power

Let’s look at what it took to bring Jehu to a position of power:

Proper Preparation of Jehu so he would engage in the battle: God anointed him first over 15 years earlier, during that time, he witnessed the corruption of the king, his household, and how Jezebel led the people into the most inhuman and horrific acts of idolatry.

Proper Preparation of the people to engage in the battle: In addition to Jehu, those who worked in the palace, the soldiers who served, the citizens of the nation, they all witnessed the steady decline of their country due to the corruption of Jezebel, Ahab, and Ahab’s children.

Supporters of Jehu

There are four groups in this passage that had the privilege and call to Reign in behind the Commission given to Jehu to weep and sweep across the land:

1. The warriors who aligned themselves with commissioning of Jehu as King
2. he watchmen on the wall
3. The messengers  
4. The people – which we will see as we read through 2 Kings 10

1 Kings 9:30-33 details the Judgment of Jehu on the priestess of this horrific idolatry and how the servants engage in this judgment:

³⁰ And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window. ³¹ And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master? ³² And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs. ³³ And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trod her under foot.” (Fulfilling 1 Kings 12:23-25)

Jehu carries out God’s judgment on the house of Ahab

Jehu, the Rod of God. He heard the Word of the Lord and executed that Word.

2 Kings 10:1-18 details the judgment of God upon the house of Ahab. This judgment fell upon his entire family, his children, and his extended family. They were to be removed from the gene pool.

Two key point that we want to draw from 2 Kings 10 is the involvement of the people of Israel and the judgment upon the worshipers of Ba’al.

1. The People Reign in behind Jehu and take a stand against Ahab. We see this in 2 Kings 10:6-8.  “⁶ Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye be mine, and if ye will hearken unto my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, which brought them up. ⁷ And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king’s sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent him them to Jezreel.⁸ And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entering in of the gate until the morning.”
2.  Judgment on the worshipers of Ba’al, and destruction of the house of Ba’al. We see this in 2 Kings 10:18-28 “¹⁸ And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said unto them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu shall serve him much. ¹⁹ Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal. ²⁰ And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it. ²¹ And Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another. ²² And he said unto him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments. ²³ And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, (note: he was a reformer who protested corruption and immorality in both Israel & Judah Jer 35) into the house of Baal, and said unto the worshippers of Baal, Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of the Lord, but the worshippers of Baal only. ²⁴ And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed fourscore men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth him go, his life shall be for the life of him. ²⁵ And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal. ²⁶ And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them. ²⁷ And they brake down the image of Baal, and brake down the house of Baal, and made it a draught house unto this day. ²⁸ Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.”

As we learn from these passages, the judgment of Jehu is the execution of God’s judgment in the nation of Israel for their state-sponsored idolatry and bloodletting.

Now, I’m not suggesting we take this approach, but I do believe we need to pray for God’s justice for our preborn children and that He will deal with these people who are pushing abortion at such a rapid rate. I believe we need to vote them out of public office and work to de-fund these organizations.

What was involved? 1)     Child Sacrifice 2)     Human trafficking 3)     Satanic ritual abuse 4)     Transgenderism (the temple prostitutes were often castrated)

I’ve said many times that the Bible presents us with an example for every situation we face and He, in His Word, provides a solution to that problem. Individually or as a nation, we can learn from what occurred then, and apply it to today, so we do not fall under the same judgments in our nation.

Turn around and follow God and His plan

2 Kings 9-10 teach us clearly, how we, the children of God, should be responding to the crisis within our nation.

In short, we need to reign in behind God and His plan in our land.

First, let’s look at the crisis and the similarities of this passage in 2 Kings, to our nation today:

In the last eight years, we’ve watched the democrat party reveal themselves in ways that are outright aggressive to the righteous, oppressive to the innocent, and unbelievably offensive to the Word of God.

The last two presidential elections, the DNC has made two issues their primary focus:

1. “Reproductive rights” which is code for the freedom to sacrifice our nation’s children on the altar of Ba’al. They want abortions up to birth and many, including Kamala Harris and Governor Walz, have pushed for fourth term abortions, which involves the murder of children who survive abortions.
2. “LGTBQ+ rights” which is less focused on the adults living in this lifestyle and more focused on introducing it to children in the classroom. The introduction of this ideology includes exposing our children to graphic images, the introduction of terms and imagery that the average American would recoil at should they be exposed to it, and discussions surrounding gender ideology that is contrary to the Word of God. Before the 1970s individuals facing gender-dysphoria were placed in mental institutions. Today it’s taught and even encouraged as an acceptable lifestyle to children not cognitively capable of making such permanent, life-altering decisions.

Planned Parenthood, who in 2016, for the first time since its inception donated to a presidential candidate. Hillary Clinton. This organization is the lead funder and educator on both fronts. I call out Planned Parenthood because all other abortion providers have modeled themselves after the culture of death spread by Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood. Which, by the way, is a 501©3 so it is able to receive large grants, and donations, including our taxpayer dollars, which they in turn use to purchase products necessary to abort or sterilize our young people without any tax liability.

Sanger believed in two things:

1. Sexual revolution
2.  Eugenics aka abortion. Today, eugenics is also being played out through the sterilization of our children by puberty blockers and hormone treatments.

These are among the highest offense unto God.

Make no mistake, this is not only for the purposes of decimating the population of certain people groups along with any stragglers they can catch along the way, but there is a great deal of wealth involved in Planned Parenthood operations. They received $1 billion last year to kill our babies and educate our children on sexual perversion and transgender ideology. They are now one of the top providers of puberty blockers and hormone replacement treatment. They receive millions and millions of taxpayer funds to do so.

We the people of God, need to reign in behind God’s plans and purposes for our nation, and I bring this type of message before you under the unction of the Lord and to help educate you in these critical issues.

The Bible says in Hosea 4:6

“⁶ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you that you shall be no priest to Me; seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.”

I do not want God to destroy us, I want us to fulfill our destiny.

What’s that destiny, again?

1)     to be a nation created by God to take the Gospel unto all the earth

2)     to be a (priestly) father to the nations

3)     to cover Israel

4)     to be a refuge nation in the end times

This is our destiny, and tonight, I want to educate you on the issue of LIFE so you know what is at stake, you know what the Word of God says, and what Science says about when Life begins, and you too can reign in behind God’s plan for our country.

What does the Word of God say?

Psalms 139:13-16 (AMPC) says:  For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well.  My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery]. Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them.

Jeremiah 1:5 (AMPC) says:  Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.

These two passages teach us that the destiny of an individual is in place prior to their conception. We are not accidents; we are brought into this world by God’s choice.

Genesis 20:18 says: that “God closed every womb in Abimelech’s house because he’d taken Sarah, Abraham’s wife” that in Genesis 30:22-23 it says that “God opened Rachel’s womb, and she conceived.”

God knows us, our days, our calling, everything about us is written on our scroll before we are even knit in our mother’s womb, which HE opens.  He chose you to be born in this hour, to the parents you have, in the country that you live, in the environment in which you are raised, in the oppression or liberty that you possess, He chose it and you accepted the commission before you were born. Why? So that even in difficulties, you can be a living example of one who overcomes. He works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purposes. (Romans 8:28) What is our purpose? To reign in behind Him!

It’s also important to understand that when we abort our children, we are aborting the destiny of our posterity. That’s the true intent of eugenics, it’s a genocide of the unwanted, the perceived undesirables, those who God ordained to be born.

What does Science say about LIFE?

According to an American College of Pediatrics article from March of 2017:

“The predominance of human biological research confirms that human life begins at conception—fertilization. At fertilization, the human being emerges as a whole, genetically distinct, individuated zygotic living human organism, a member of the species Homo sapiens, needing only the proper environment in order to grow and develop. The difference between the individual in its adult stage and in its zygotic stage is one of form, not nature. This statement focuses on the scientific evidence of when an individual human life begins.

“It has been recognized for millennia that both a paternal (semen) and a maternal contribution are required for the formation of a new human life. The first recorded embryological reports are in the fifth century B.C. books of Hippocrates, who noted from the study of incubating chicken eggs that the nature of the bird can be likened to that of the man.

“ In 1677, Hamm and Leeuwenhoek observed spermatozoa under the microscope, but thought they contained miniature humans. Spallanzani demonstrated in 1775 that both oocyte and sperm were necessary. In 1827, von Baer observed oocytes in the ovarian follicle and in the Fallopian tube and blastocysts in the uterus of a dog.¹

“Finally, it was with the advent of the cell theory developed by Schleiden and Schwann in 1839 that it was recognized that the embryo develops from the single-celled zygote.¹ Directly based upon this observation and the knowledge that the single-celled zygote was alive and an independent being, in 1859 the American Medical Association published a statement strongly opposing abortion, particularly commenting on the independence of the zygote (aka embryo/baby) during the time between its formation and its implantation.^2,3

“Although the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1965 attempted to redefine “conception” to mean implantation rather than fertilization,⁴ medical dictionaries and even English language dictionaries both before and after 1966^5,6 define “conception” as synonymous with fertilization (sometimes via the intermediary term of “fecundation”).^7,8,9 Moore’s 1974 edition of a human embryology textbook states that development is a continuous process that begins when an ovum is fertilized by a sperm and ends at death. It is a process of change and growth that transforms the zygote, a single cell, into a multicellular adult human being.¹⁰ Moore’s 2008 edition emphasizes that development does not end at birth but extends into early adulthood.¹ Professor Emeritus of Human Embryology of the University of Arizona School of Medicine, Dr. C. Ward Kischer, affirms that “Every human embryologist, worldwide, states that the life of the new individual human being begins at fertilization (conception).” Click here for the full article.

That is what Science says about LIFE. “LIFE Begins at Conception” Believe it or not, true science often confirms the Word of God.

When the Lord says, “the Judgment of Jehu is here in America, reign in behind Me (the Lord)” He is saying to us, I’m about to bring the hammer of justice down on this horrific sin against the most innocent, and it’s time we reign in behind Him to tackle this issue head on! What sin? The sin of abortion and human trafficking. This involves the abortion pill as well as surgical procedures that tear children from the womb. It includes promiscuity, sexual perversions, MAPS, pedophilia, the push for transgender drugs and surgeries in minors, the gender ideological brainwashing of our youth and so on. We also know that judgment begins at the house of God. (1 Peter 4:17) Compromise has weakened the Church, let us, the Body of Christ, reign in behind Him to root this out of our Church and then our nation!

Jehu was an unconventional ruler, rough around the edges, his focus was not politics, it was transforming the nation by eliminating the corruption at the top. Jehu is one who the Bible describes as so unique in the way he moved; the watchmen recognized him coming from a great distance. We have leaders today that can and should make a difference if we get behind them!

We as a ministry have been praying over these issues for some time and we are about to see breakthroughs. However, there are those who have become passive, apathetic even in their fight for our youth. As we pray over bloodletting, we need to pray that God will ignite His people to engage in this fight!

Remember the four groups in these passages that had the privilege and call to Reign in behind the Commission given to Jehu to weep and sweep across the land?

1)     The warriors to aligned themselves with commissioning of Jehu as King

2)     The watchmen on the wall

3)     The messengers who approached Jehu

4)     The people

We can all be these things in our nation.

1)     People of Prayer-the watchmen

2)     Voice for the voiceless -the messenger

3)     Engage with the political landscape-which requires you to be a warrior

4)     Get out and take action vote

That said, I recognize that the RNC has become lax in their stance on the issue of LIFE. And as intercessors, we need to reach out to them and tell them this issue is important to us, so they push it back up to the top of their list.

However, the Church is the heartbeat of a nation, and we are called to be the barometer or plumbline of the nation. We must take a staunch stand for life and to be honest, many pastors today refuse to preach a message about life because it’s “too controversial” or they don’t want to “offend or hurt anyone sitting in their pews” or they get tremendous backlash. We should be encouraging them to proceed with messages such as when life begins and what God has to say about protecting life. Counteract the negative with your encouragement. Why?

Three reasons

1)     The silence of pastors on this issue prevents women who’ve had abortions or men who’ve encouraged abortions from repenting and receiving God’s forgiveness and healing. His Grace is sufficient.

2)     The congregation needs to know what the Word of God says about life in the womb. Pew Research did a study on this and concluded that nearly 60% of Christians believe the Bible is unclear on this issue! Understanding empowers them to make the right decision for their own lives.

3)     This is the kind of thing that brings judgment on a nation. If the evangelical Christian knew and understood these things, and the importance of voting according to Biblical principles, we’d have a different America.

For the intercessors, I firmly believe that if we pray God will move on our behalf and begin to deal with and ultimately heal the Church! If you remember the vision I had about the “Fractured Body, Rising Warrior” the Church’s stance, or lack thereof, on the issue of abortion plays a huge role on why it’s so ineffective in this hour. The Church needs prayer, and it needs to become that Rising Warrior!

America’s destiny

I’m going to share a few visions the Lord gave me in 2022 to encourage us in our intercession.

1/15/22 Flipping the Nation!!

I had a vision of the nation: it was shaped like a submarine with the sail allowing the viewing and communication instruments to elevate securely above the vessel. This particular sail had a viewing window in addition to the periscope. Unlike typical submarines, this one had a sail on the top and the bottom.

The submarine was vertical instead of horizontal. I asked the Lord about this, and He said, “it’s because the intercessors are within, praying to turn this vessel upside down.”

He opened my eyes to see the intercessors inside the vessel, they were running faster than any human I have ever seen run. Their efforts were propelling the nation in a circular motion, and with an increased anointing upon the intercessors, they were lifting the vessel up to flip it so it can be set right in the eyes of God as well as in the eyes of man.

2/7/22 The Lord, the Intercessors, and the Great Flip to LIFE!

I had a dream, it picked up where the vision left off. This dream was in full color. I saw the submarine again, it was as though someone took two submarines and cut them in half horizontally, then fused the top portions together. There was a sail on the top and the bottom. The top was red, the bottom was made of titanium, but this had an added component that made it impenetrable.

The submarine was now moving from a 90-degree angle toward the left to complete the 180-degree flip necessary to turn this submarine (nation) around.

Since the submarine had two sails, I could clearly see into both viewing stations. The red half had an image of Baal trying to navigate, he was furiously trying to take control and bring this submarine back under his command. The ocean on his side, was an ocean of blood.

The titanium side was driven by the Lord and the determination in His face was unmatched. The ocean that He was bringing with Him was such a clear, purified liquid, it looked like the beautiful waters surrounding Hawaii.

As the intercessor’s prayed from within the vessel, they were creating momentum, this momentum was matched by the determination I saw in our Lord’s face. We were one, functioning in unity, to turn this nation right side up. I cannot begin to tell you the intensity of our collective efforts.

At the appointed moment, this vessel flipped! There was a tremendous wave that propelled forward and overtook the bloody waters. At this point, the pure waters penetrated every drop of blood and cleansed the bloody water and the vessel launched forward! I saw a sonic boom in the spirit realm! Our nation was thrust forward in a place of right standing with God! It then became a vacuum which drew other nations into the path we were on! We were on a prolife path!

Meanwhile, the enemy was plunged into the depths of the sea, bound and ineffective.

As I prayed over these two experiences, I had another vision. You see, the elite flipped this nation with bloodletting, the greater the bloodletting, the thicker the callous is over our eyes. As the intercessions of the saints aligned with the will of God, and that ship flipped, the scales fell off the eyes of the people and their eyes were opened to the full truth about abortion.

I saw “LIFE IN THE WOMB” written across the nation and as though it were a brand-new revelation released, the eyes of young and old were opened to the beauty and wonder of the development of a child within the womb. The psalmist weeps before God as he receives the revelation of his own life, known and formed by God from the moment of conception (Psalms 139). The revelation was so great, the people of the nation rose to fight for life in the womb! The youth were set free, justices were fulfilling their destiny, and states were picking up the mantle to protect the life of the unborn! I saw other nations brought into this experience and they too picked up the mantle to end abortion in their land!

2/10/22 “The Fight for LIFE!”

I saw the Lord proclaim the word, “LIFE!” it reverberated across the globe! When the Lord sent out the call, a world-wide phenomenon occurred: the young and the old, they all heard the cry to fight for LIFE as it sounded… “come and fight with Me!” bellowed from the heavens! The people turned and responded with a resounding “YES, we will fight with you!”

They ran to a central place, there was woman with a child in her womb. The people circled the child, they formed another circle outside the first, and that continued outward until it was as far as the eye could see. I was taken up above this vast number of people and saw the wonder and beauty that occurred, the people became a human shield for this unborn child! I saw the serpent, (the same one I saw December 17^th, 2021, who came to whisper into the mother’s ear…it’s too much, you cannot do this, he will leave you, you’ll never have your success, school will be over, there’s no hope, this “thing” will ruin your life… ) but this human shield, completely blocked the entry of the serpent! He tried and tried, slithering around trying to access from every angle, but the human shield kept expanding, more and more were added to their number, he was a continent away from his prey!

Suddenly, the Lord came, picked him up and tore him in two! The scream was horrific, but there was a tangible oppression lifted when that occurred.

This human shield not only protected that baby, but it also shielded the mother from attack. She felt safe, she knew she could make it, she could take care of her baby, she had no fear, she was secure!

It was a most amazing experience.

2/6/22 in my time with the Lord, I saw “LIFE AT CONCEPTION” etched in gold in our US Constitution. There was such a breakthrough in our nation. Every penny that goes into abortion, vaccines, big pharma, corrupt politicians, lobbyists, began to leak out of these corrupt systems and into programs to support young mothers, proper adoptions, and LIFE!

The culture of death was broken.

Why? Because, when the Judgment of Jehu came, the warriors, the watchmen, the messengers and the people reigned in behind what God was doing in our land and He moved mightily on their behalf!

Don’t settle, don’t delay, stay in the fight because this fight is not just for us, it’s for our posterity.

Editorial Special Section: Tim Sheets: The New Season of Miracles

Message: Tim Sheets    Date: August 29, 2024    Source: GiveHim15

We are moving into a supernatural, transformational, and reformational era where the glory and power of the Lord are being amped up at much higher levels. The Holy Spirit has consistently emphasized that healings and notable miracles are to be part of this era. They will now come in greater measure.

The divine healing ministry is a part of my heritage. My roots go back to what is called “The Voice of Healing” movement, a time when healing evangelists held healing and miracle meetings in America and other nations. All manner of sicknesses and diseases were healed, even incurable diseases, by the power of God. Well-known ministers of that time were Gordon Lindsay, A.A. Allen, William Branham, Jack Coe, Kathryn Kuhlman, Oral Roberts, and many others.

When I was a boy, my dad was also used by the Lord greatly in the healing ministry. My brother Dutch and I regularly worked at the altars, and we saw the power of God manifest time after time. I have seen many miracles occur, including incurable diseases, blindness, and deafness. I once watched as a man’s crippled and twisted body in a wheelchair completely straightened, completely realigned, and became completely restored.
Over the years, I have received many prophetic words about moving in the healing and miracle heritage from my childhood, and I believe Holy Spirit is now accelerating this assignment. It is time for supernatural events to happen on the earth, as was seen throughout the Scriptures. Notable miracles will now help change history, as was seen in the Book of Acts.

We are moving into days when notable miracles will accelerate through Kingdom Ekklesias. The miraculous will flow into towns, cities, regions, states, and nations. It is time to believe for this supernatural power of the living God to move in our churches with signs, wonders, miracles, and healings.

In light of recent words and visions I have received, Holy Spirit has recently prompted me to pray for healings and miracles quite often. I asked the Lord one day to give me a prophetic understanding regarding these dreams and visions, and He gave me another unique dream regarding notable miracles.

THE DREAM

I was in a very large room with what looked to be around a hundred people. All age groups were represented, from young children to the elderly. I could see each individual very clearly. I looked over to one side and saw a blind man standing, holding a white cane. I looked around the room and saw people who were obviously deaf using sign language. I saw other people with sores covering their bodies. The sores looked infected, and I knew it was some kind of skin disease or cancer. I saw others who were extremely sick, in the last stages of deadly diseases. I saw some who appeared to be stroke victims, paralyzed and dragging a leg or unable to use an arm. I saw a few others in wheelchairs.  

It was as if I was in a hospital ward with people experiencing all sorts of debilitating sickness and diseases. I could see the hollow look in their eyes, the fear and hopelessness written on their faces. I remember in the dream feeling so sad for them that I wanted to get out of the room. I didn’t want them to see me cry. 

At this point in the dream, I decided to walk to another room across the hall. When I walked into this room, it also was inhabited by a hundred or so people. However, these people were completely different from the others – happy, joyous, laughing, and energetic, the absolute picture of health – interacting with one another. Obviously, I noticed the contrast between the two rooms. As I stood there for a moment, a man walked up to me whom I had never before met, but instantly recognized.  

(It was T.L. Osborn, who is now in heaven. He was one of the famous healing evangelists who moved in the healing and miracle ministry during the days of “The Voice of Healing” movement. I’ve seen videos of his crusades where dozens of wheelchairs and crutches were left behind at the altar. Notable miracles happened through this great man’s ministry.)

The dream continued: He and another person walked up to me. T.L. Osborn asked me if I recognized the other man. I replied, “No sir, I don’t think I do.” He brought someone else over to me and asked if I recognized him. Again I said, “No, Dr. Osborn, I don’t think I know him.” He continued bringing people to me, asking if I knew them, and I continued to reply that I did not. Then, Dr. Osborn beamed at me with his broad smile and asked me to look very closely at each person. I did, but again said that I did not recognize them.

He then said to me, “You were just in the room across the hall with these very same people.” He pointed to one person and said, “This is the one who had sores all over their body, and a part of their face was disfigured. He gestured to another person and said, “This person was the one in the wheelchair over against the wall.” He continued pointing out others, “This one was the stroke victim who could not move her arm. These people were the ones in the last stages of cancer, barely able to stand. And remember this man? He was the blind man with the white cane. Here are the children you saw that were so sick and in such pain, they could hardly move, let alone try to play.”  
One after the other, Dr. Osborn introduced me to these people, who were now so healthy and transformed that I did not recognize them. They were those whom I had seen across the hall. Then Dr. Osborn asked me if I knew what room I was in, to which I replied, “No. I just wanted out of the other room, so I came into this one.”

Editorial Special Section: 【Voice of Fig】Behold the 47th Week of Torah Gleaning

Information: Jenny Lee   Date: September 1, 2024   Audio:  [Voice of Fig] YouTube audio   arrangement: Song of Wei Mu

Scripture Progress:

• Torah: Deuteronomy 11:26-16:17
• Prophets: Isaiah 54:11-55:5
• New Testament: John 7: 37-52

Prophetic Words of Encouragement

• Now I suddenly see a little growth! God requires you to fit in a little bit to carry it. Get ready for a sudden increase now! God requires that you be prepared and fit to carry it. I look forward to your changes! Learn to make yourself unaffected by the opinions of others.
• You can expect that your life will become smoother and less hectic than before. You’ll find simple solutions to difficult problems and be able to accomplish tasks that seem beyond your capabilities. Indeed I have gone before you, making straight the crooked places. Isaiah 45:2-3 I will go before you and make the rough places straight; I will break down the gates of bronze and cut in pieces the bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness and secret treasures, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls you by name .
• It’s time to stop fighting. 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on God, because He cares for you. You’ve been holding on to something for so long that your hand hurts. Open your hands and release everything to God. You think that if you just stick with it, things will stay the same. In fact, you are preventing God from moving forward in a powerful way. I have so much more for you – more than you can imagine. Receive what God has in store for you! 1 Peter 5:7 (TLB) “Let him bear all your anxieties and anxieties, because he is always thinking about you and has regard for everything that concerns you.” 

• God has big plans for you… He will prosper you and give you the results He desires!
• This is a time to re-evaluate your use of abilities and streamline your activities so you can be more efficient. There are things you do out of habit that are no longer relevant to your existence. Let go of those things and you can move forward unimpeded. Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 

• The suffering you have experienced will now be returned/compensated to you in the form of blessings and restoration of what was lost in the past. God has set the time for His sovereign plan! If you don’t give up/quit, your season is coming! Never stop giving up on the dreams God has given you. Timing is everything.
• I keep hearing the lyrics of an old song – pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start over. That’s really good advice for these days. Let today be a new day and a new beginning/beginning. Let go of the past and look toward the future with hope. Isaiah 43:18-19 This is what the LORD says: Remember not the things of old, nor think about the things of old. Behold, I am about to do a new thing; now I am about to discover it, don’t you know it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
• Please be prepared to receive divine intervention from God’s hand! Divine intervention is coming into your situation/situation to the glory of God! What are you trusting God for in this season?

• God is about to show His power for you in a huge way. As long as (you) stick to it. Sometimes, judging/judging others can prevent us from experiencing the breakthroughs and personal renewal we need in our lives.
• As we move from judging to blessing, we open the heaven above us to receive the full measure of revelation.
• Refuse to spend your precious time regretting and wishing you had made better choices, or lived your life with more integrity, or loved and been loved more completely. Today, start over with better choices and love in your heart and for those around you. Because you are still alive and can still make a difference.
• John 15:12-13 This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than laying down his life for his friends.

• The power of forgiveness will make you a stronger, more peaceful person.
• Comparison is a trap. You can feel those who are trying to compete with you. I say, don’t get involved in this kind of game and stay away from this type of conflict. There will always be people who want what you have. Here’s the thing. They can have what they want, but they don’t trust Me for it. Please continue your journey and thank Me for everything you have. You are surrounded by the comfort (of the Holy Spirit) and the knowledge that I am with you along with My blessings. Exodus 20:17 (AMP Literal Translation) “You shall not covet [i.e., selfishly desire and try to acquire] your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or his donkey, or anything that is his.”

Look!

• Deuteronomy 11:26-28 Behold, I set before you today blessings and curses. You will be blessed if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today. You will suffer disaster if you disobey the commandments of the LORD your God and turn aside from the way I command you today and serve other gods you have never known.
• Watch carefully, listen and obey, and use your free will to choose to bless or curse, just like Adam and Eve back then.
• Moses makes one thing clear when he teaches us: The great choice is between blessing and curse, between following the voice of God or the seductive calls of instinct and desire . Not only for individuals but also for groups. Only when a country becomes a moral community can freedom be maintained. When we lift others up, and they lift us up, any moral community can achieve great things that far exceed their numbers. This is also the reason why Israel can defeat the enemy with a small number, but if it loses the blessing of God’s presence, Israel will eventually be cursed and even be expelled from the Promised Land.
• Moses makes one thing clear when he teaches us: The great choice is between blessing and curse, between following the voice of God or the seductive calls of instinct and desire. Not only for individuals but also for groups. Only when a country becomes a moral community can freedom be maintained. When we lift others up, and they lift us up, any moral community can achieve great things that far exceed their numbers. This is also the reason why Israel can defeat the enemy with a small number, but if it loses the blessing of God’s presence, Israel will eventually be cursed and even be expelled from the Promised Land.
• What Moses is doing here is defining reality for the next generation and for all generations. He does this as a preface to the many chapters that follow, a systematic restatement of Jewish law that covers every aspect of the new nation’s life in the land.
• Moses didn’t want people to get overwhelmed by the details and lose the big picture. Trapped by the detailed Jewish law and its 613 commands. The Torah is intended to sanctify all aspects of life, from daily rituals to the structure of society and its institutions. Its purpose is to shape a new social world in which we can turn even seemingly mundane occasions into encounters with the divine. Even though there are many details, the choice I put before you is really simple , Moses said.

• Joshua entered the Promised Land, the first altar, because Abraham’s first altar was also in Shechem.
• Mount Ebal faces the Dead Sea (the curse of death) and is dry and rainless.
• Mount Gerizim faces Galilee (life blessing) and is rich in vegetation.
• Not far away, under the Moreh oak tree, Abraham built the first altar [See Genesis : 6-7 ]

Priority (Altar)

• This week’s Torah “Behold” details a series of laws that preceded the Israelites’ entry into the Land of Israel. These included the obligation to destroy idolatry, tithe and charity laws, dietary laws, festival laws, and the prohibition of offering sacrifices in places other than those designated by God.
• Entering the Promised Land, the first thing to do is to set up the altar and tear down the high place
• Deuteronomy 12:2-3 You shall destroy every place where the nations you have driven out worshiped God, on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree; you shall also tear down their altars and smash their altars in pieces. and burned their idols with fire, and cut down their carved images of their gods, and destroyed their names from that place.

After Decision Comes Action

• Deuteronomy 12:8  This is what we are doing here today, each one doing what is right in his own eyes . You shall not do this in the future.
• Deuteronomy 12:25b …so it shall be well with you and your descendants, if you do what is right in the sight of the LORD .

Our Faith is A Practiced Faith

• Grand thoughts, expressions of everyday life
• Deuteronomy 12:5 But wheresoever the LORD your God chooses from among your tribes to be the dwelling place for his name , you shall go and ask (Jerusalem)
• The joy of three festivals a year
• clean and unclean food
• Use of money, tithing and remembering Levites and orphans and widows
• Place, time, food, money, sanctification is not just a theory but manifests itself in daily life

Avoid Temptation

• Deuteronomy 13:1-2 If a prophet or dreamer among you arises and shows you a sign or wonder, and says to you, “Let us go and follow other gods, which you have never known, and serve them.” Although the signs and wonders he performed came to pass,
• Deuteronomy 13:6 If any of your brothers, your sons or your daughters, or the wife of your bosom , or your friend who is as dear to your life , seduce you secretly, saying, Let us serve you and your ancestors. Unknown other gods
• Deuteronomy 13:12 If you hear in any of the cities where the LORD your God gives you a place to live, that some robbers have come out from one of your cities to seduce its inhabitants, saying, “We might as well go and serve you, which you have never done.” Know other gods ;

What are Your Actions?

• Travel to Jerusalem
• How to celebrate the holidays
• Donate of money
• Acts of kindness
• Cleansing or other self-cleaning of food
• Bless you to seize the last month and prepare to enter 5785 new blessings

Editorial Special Section: Lou Engle & Christy Johnston: “A 90-Day Call to Prayer for the U.S. Elections”

Message: Lou Engle & Christy Johnstona Date: August 9, 2024  Source : Elijah List

Editor’s Note: Christy Johnston is an Australian writer, prophetic teacher, and one of the best intercessors in the United States (even though she is Australian!). Dreams were nothing new to Christie, but few inspired the faith of countless intercessors like this one.

90 Days

On August 7th, our friend Christy Johnston had an urgent dream in which she saw herself calling for 90 days of prayer leading up to the U.S. elections. She knew it was a clarion call from Heaven that went far beyond the reach of her own sphere of influence. Christy then saw a tremendous response from the Ekklesia. It was a 2 Chronicles 7:14 moment. Hundreds of thousands of people from every nation were falling on their knees and crying out for the United States of America. She also saw hordes of demonic beings that looked like orcs from The Lord of the Rings movies. As she watched in the dream, their hands suddenly became shackled and their plans were interrupted by the power of intercession from the people of God.

Christy understood that this dream was not just about America, but about the nations of the earth. Meanwhile, there is a demonic agenda in the United States that must be stopped. When she woke from the dream, Christy contacted Lou Engle. They did the math to find out when 90 days before the elections (on November 5th) would be. It turned out to be this past Wednesday, August 7th, the very day she had the dream! Christy and Lou acted quickly to release a live Instagram message to herald this call to prayer. We urge you to watch it and share it far and wide. But if all else fails, just DO THE DREAM with us and pray each day for 90 days!

In the video, Lou explains how Psalm 149 is key to understanding the dream. The psalmist wrote:

“Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand, to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples; to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; to execute on them the written judgment—this honor have all His saints. Praise the LORD!” (Psalm 149:6–9)

Lou believes that great principalities and powers are in a cosmic conflict over the elections and over Israel right now. There is also a battle over which ideologies are going to be loosed into these nations. Lou mentioned Derek Prince’s book, Shaping History through Prayer and Fasting, and how it tells of how “governments are shifted in prayer and fasting, as it was in the days of Daniel and as in the days of Esther.” Lou went on to say, “I believe right now God is saying, urgently, put high praises of God in your mouth. Carry it to your beds. Pray on your beds and declare the binding of kings and nobles, and the shackling of the principalities and powers, so God can actually establish His purposes” (both now and in these elections).

Christy and Lou addressed the principalities associated with the ancient goddess Ishtar, and the gods Molech and Baal, as mentioned in Jonathan Cahn’s book, The Return of the Gods. The premise of the book is that when America removed God from the public sector in the 60s, and in the 70s, then demons came back seven times worse to repossess the nation. Ishtar was the goddess of sexuality, homosexuality, prostitution, and transgenderism. Lou acknowledged that the influence of this unseen entity is being manifest on the ground level in our nation as never before. Even certain elements of the Olympic ceremony exemplified her perversions.

Lou also emphasized that when those in positions of authority make decrees and agreements with wickedness, or with righteousness, it opens portals in the heavenly realms—whether for evil or for good. For example, he explained that when the president awarded a transgender woman as “Woman of the Year,” he was opening a portal for transgender ideologies and spirits to come in and affect our nation. Knowing what a controversial topic this is, Lou said, “I would rather be controversial than to be halting between two opinions and missing the very moment that the Elijahs of God, and the Esthers of God, are being called into.”

Would you join us in these 90 days of intercession by setting your alarm to pray at either 4:14 AM or 4:14 PM? The time is based on Esther 4:14, which says, “For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”

Also, our Nigerian friend, Folake Kellogg, had a dream in which the Lord told her, “You cannot have Esther 4:14 without Nehemiah 4:14.”

“And I looked, and arose and said to the nobles, to the leaders, and to the rest of the people, ‘Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, great and awesome, and fight for your brethren, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.'” (Nehemiah 4:14)

We shudder to think of what will happen for our generation and the generation to come if we do not triumph over the plans of darkness in this hour of history.

So, at 4:14 in your own time zone, we ask that wherever you are you stop and take Communion. Stand in the gap on behalf of 1) Israel, 2) your own nation, and 3) America.

Years ago, the Lord told us in a dream that it would “honor the body and the blood to pray for His Israel each day before the sun sets.” Let us “execute the judgment written” by decreeing the Word of God and calling forth His purposes while, at the same time, decreeing the judgment of the Cross over powers and principalities. In doing so, over the next 90 days, we will be establishing national altars of righteousness and opening portals of God’s favor as mentioned in 2 Chronicles 7:14.

Additional Prayer Points

For those who would appreciate more guidance for your intercession, consider agreeing with us in the following prayer objectives inspired by Lou and Christy’s exhortation:

1. Let us pray for the restraining of the demonic principalities and wicked governments that seek Israel’s destruction and have brought death and suffering upon their own people. “Make haste, O God, to deliver me! Make haste to help me, O Lord! Let them be ashamed and confounded who seek my life; let them be turned back and confused who desire my hurt.” (Psalm 70:1–2)
2. Repent on behalf of your nation, Israel, and America, for every unholy agreement and blood covenant. Plead the better blood of Jesus and His greater covenant. Call for the dismantling of witchcraft and the occult in every sphere of our government and society.  “…’How can there be peace,’ Jehu replied, ‘as long as all the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?'” (2 Kings 9:22)
3. Pray for the presidential elections, that America and the globe will be spared from the demonic agendas being espoused by the Democratic party.  “For how can I endure to see the evil that will come to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my countrymen?” (Esther 8:6)
4. Pray for the restraining of World War III, for the sake of the global missions movement and the reaping of a mass harvest of souls.  “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9)
5. Decree that America is going to come back to her original covenant with the Lord. Welcome Him back into our nation, our schools, and every sphere of society.
6. Pray forth the opening of the womb of America for the rebirth of the nation and the birthing of many souls into salvation. “Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.” (Psalm 90:2)
7. Pray for mercy to triumph over judgment and for a great awakening to sweep across this generation with deliverance from all kinds of addictions, sin patterns, mental illness, and identity confusion.  “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free.” (Luke 4:18)
