Daily Prophetic Words--Praying for our Global Community

  Greetings in the Lord~ It's been quite some time ago, maybe two years or more, when the Lord put on my heart about how this administration would eventually fall apart.  In a vision, the Lord showed me a large, white dam wall holding back a major river.  This wall represented all the lies, schemes and scandals, and outright corruption done to keep back the rivers of righteousness from flowing in the United States.   At first, this wall seemed impenetrable, but as the river grew in size--from all of the concerned, hurt and angry voices speaking truth and persistent prayers of the faithful, the river grew and grew as more streams deposited into it.  Then, finally, one day, a small crack appeared!  So minute was the squirt of water that shot from the hairline crack--it seemed almost irrelevant, like there was no way this little crack could end up toppling the giant wall down.  But it did!!! "As goes Hunter, so goes the White House!" Yep, that's what...

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word, like many of the others I've given this year, is one of sounding the alarm.  I always hope it doesn't get to be like one who cries wolf, but I have to be faithful to the call He has put on my life.  More than that, it is a fulfillment of a scriptural promise: "Indeed, the Sovereign Lord never does anything until He reveals His plans to His servants the prophets."  Amos 3:7 So, in keeping with today's word from Amos 3, I will announce the things the Lord has been putting on my heart, which agrees with many other prophetic voices speaking at this hour:  it is time to repent and pray because there are major shakings being planned for the U.S. right now, some of which will definitely have an effect on other nations as well.   This season of shaking began at the eclipse on April 8th--as it was a sign of the season of judgments that we are in.  Earlier this year I wrote about that, and of all the natural and manmade disasters ...

Greetings in the Lord~ Last week the Methodists as a denomination met at their General Conference in Charlotte, NC to discuss and vote on many matters, including the controversial topic of allowing actively practicing homosexual persons to be ordained as pastors.  The vote was pretty overwhelmingly in support of that issue. Not only that, but they decided that gay marriages can be performed by such clergy in Methodist churches that are agreeable to this taking place in their church.   Needless to say, this approval goes far beyond finding common ground and unity within the denomination, as it basically endorses a tenet that is not compatible with Scripture.  But maybe more importantly, it is a beginning of fulfillment of prophetic End Time warnings given all throughout the New Testament.   These warnings can be found most directly in the 2nd chapter of the book of Revelation in reference to the sect of the Nicolaitans.  These Nicolaitan "Christians" ta...

  Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Joel 2, and is accompanied by a dream.  Let me first share about the passage from scripture.  In this passage, we read about the Lord directing an 'army' of locusts to come to devour and plunder the land as a form of judgment.  Interestingly, devouring locusts were one of the plagues that happened in Egypt long ago as a form of judgment to compel Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave their country--freeing them of their slavery.  Here, however, the plague of locusts come as a form of judgment upon His people for their persistent sin and stubborn rebellion against God.   "Ahead of them (locusts) the land lies as beautiful as the Garden of Eden.  Behind them is nothing but desolation, not one thing escapes....Look at them as they leap along the mountaintops.  Listen to the noise they make--like the rumbling of chariots, like the roar of fire sweeping across a field of stubble, or like an army movin...

Greetings in the Lord~ This week I've been reading from the book of Jeremiah, and quite frankly, it makes me nervous and a bit sad.  This whole book is basically about the overthrow and exile of Judah/Israel, and about His judgments to the pagan nations.  The Lord sends the prophet Jeremiah to warn the people to repent of their idolatrous ways and return to the Lord--for He desires to heal them of their wayward hearts.  However, a portion of the people and Judah's leaders do not listen, but rather, become even more insolent and rebellious.  They persecute Jeremiah and the godly people of the land ultimately, by continuing in their senseless destruction of the bountiful land the Lord had given them.  How?  By adopting the corrupt ways of the world -- desiring only wealth and power for themselves and throwing God's commands behind their backs.  Oh, they give God lip service, but reject seeking any of His counsel or wisdom and instead worship worthless id...

  Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Psalm 76.  This is a psalm that I've come to love over the years as it is usually given when the Lord is going to bring a victory of sorts.  Now, in my experience, the victory usually pertains to a spiritual victory, like a major break in spiritual warfare, where the spirit realm is suddenly peaceful, quiet and calm as spiritual forces of evil flee away completely defeated.  However, today I received a dream to go with this word and it seems to indicate a victory and recovery of things in the natural more than spiritual.  Let's discuss the psalm first. In Psalm 76 the Lord is praised and honored by His people because He has destroyed the "fiery arrows of the enemy", "the shields and swords and weapons of war."   Whatever and however the enemy has been attacking His people are suddenly destroyed by the Lord, and "at the blast of Your breath, O God of Jacob, their horses and chariots lay still."  ...

Greetings in the Lord~ This week the Supreme Court heard the arguments from the lawyers representing the (small group of) Colorado voters that wanted to have Trump removed from the state's ballot in the next election.  While their arguments were much less than convincing, in the bigger picture, the fact that the Supreme Court was even listening to their sophisticated whines has an important spiritual implication, as today's prophetic word comes from Micah 6.  This word has to do with the 'trial of the people,' as they represent just how far down and wide the rebellion against the Lord goes in the U.S. culture.  These folks are on trial with the Lord presiding, and it doesn't go well for them! First off, it is interesting that this passage begins with the Lord calling to the mountains and hills to hear their complaints: "Stand up and state your case against Me.  Let the mountains and hills be called to witness your complaints.  And now, O mountains, listen to th...

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, today's prophetic word comes from Jeremiah 6, and it is one of those that always give prophetic speakers a bad reputation, mainly because it is a word of warning.  But Jeremiah 6 is not just any warning, but it is their last warning.  In this 6th chapter from Jeremiah, we read about an army coming from the north to destroy Jerusalem because of the unrepentant sins of the highest to the common in the land.  They simply do not want to follow God's ways anymore.  But even in this warning of incoming trouble, the people refuse to listen.  They want to go their own way and close their ears to the warnings of the prophets; in fact, they scorn the word of the Lord.  Like Sinatra, they boldly and foolishly sing, "My Way!"  So now, the prophet decrees the fury of the Lord without hesitation or compassion.  He simply calls out all of those in power who could help the country and the people, but who instead lie to them and say, "...

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's prophetic word comes from Psalm 79, complete with accompanying dream.  It is a pretty intense psalm that uses very dramatic language to express the desperate cry of the people of God to the Lord for His saving grace and power, and ultimately, to rescue those in great need.  And it is the second psalm of petition and deliverance I've received on behalf of someone in the entertainment industry, for it is that time of year... "O God, pagan nations have conquered Your land, Your special possession.  They have defiled Your holy Temple and made Jerusalem a heap of ruins.  They have left the bodies of Your servants as food for the birds of heaven.  The flesh of Your godly ones has become food for the wild animals....We are mocked by our neighbors, an object of scorn and derision to those around us.  O Lord, how long will You be angry with us?" Pour out Your wrath on the nations that refuse to acknowledge You--on kingdoms that do not ...

  Greetings in the Lord~ This week's prophetic word comes from Amos 3 & 6, and Jeremiah 16, as well as an accompanying dream and visual confirmation--which usually means there is an urgency to the prophetic word.  Let's jump right in. These chapters in Amos pretty much say the same things: God's judgment is coming, mainly in the form of foreign invaders.  The Lord allows the invasion because His people for the most part have become apathetic in their faith, even outright idolatrous and corrupt, in their love of the world and false gods.  In chapter 3, the Lord will even invite other nations to witness the trouble and confirm that God was just in His decision to bring correction to His people.  The judgment is mostly directed at the rich leaders among His people, those that chose to better themselves at the expense of the country, who have summer and winter homes filled with luxurious things gotten by oppressing the poor and common in the land.  They thi...

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, here it is, 2024, and for many it couldn't have come a minute sooner!  I've heard it said several times already--"Good riddance!" to 2023, as people have struggled in many ways over the past year (and longer). In the language of scripture that the Lord uses to enlighten me, He talks about a Pharaoh oppressing His people.  Yes, as in the days of old, the U.S. is like the Israelites in ancient Egypt--slaving away at the behest of a cruel and godless master; Pharaoh thinks he is a god and imposes his agenda on the captives...but a day will come when he will rule the people no more! Yes, a day comes when the Lord says enough is enough. God meets with Moses in the backside of the desert and calls him to lead Israel out of Egypt.  So Moses goes with his brother, Aaron, to Pharaoh to ask that he let the Hebrews go out into the desert for three days to worship their God, God Almighty, but the Lord knows Pharaoh will never let them go unless the mi...

Greetings in the Lord~ This week I came across a national news article reporting on the result and aftermath of the November vote from a small town in Michigan.  In fact, this particular article didn't even give the name of the city it is so small, just the township name.  However, since it is my childhood hometown, I recognized it immediately!   Now, the article showed a picture of a guy changing the locks of a public building, town hall to be exact, and the headline said it all: "Small Michigan Town Votes Off All Members of Town Council and Changes Locks on Town Hall!"  Ha ha ha--they voted them off because each of them had been supporting a $2.4B Chinese project to be built in the small city which would be an environmental disaster and security risk.  SO, why would they be supporting something the majority of the town is against, you ask?  Bribe money.  It is a fact that some of the town council members had been offered huge amounts of money (i...

  Greetings in the Lord~ Over the course of the past three weeks, I have gotten the same word 3 times, each from a different place in Scripture.  Now, I know that 3 is an attention-getting number, so I will share this prophetic word today as it comes from Isaiah 30-31. "What sorrow awaits My rebellious children," says the Lord.  "You make plans that are contrary to Mine.  You make alliances not directed by My Spirit, thus piling up your sins.  For without consulting Me, you have gone down to Egypt for help.  You have put your trust in Pharaoh's protection. you have tried to hide in his shade.  But by trusting Pharaoh, you will be humiliated, and by depending on him, you will be disgraced. For though his power extends to Zoan and his officials have arrived in Hanes, all who trust in him will be ashamed.  He will not help you.  Instead, he will disgrace you.  The caravan moves slowly across the terrible desert to Egypt--donkeys weighed dow...

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word is based on a recent intense dream I had, one that came with an accompanying scripture passage to help give the depth and seriousness of the dream.  It went like this. A female musician/entertainer was attending an industry dinner out in either LA or NYC, that was put on by a major elite in the business.  She was enjoying the evening of networking and socializing, but realized that though she was popular enough to get invited, that she was still just one of many trying to move up in the business.   At her table were various industry people, not all actors or musicians, but some were assistants and behind the scenes people as well.  In the middle of the table on display were small ornate gifts which everyone curiously noticed, but didn't talk about.  Finally, towards the end of the dinner, the female musician/entertainer took the initiative to hand them out to each person at the table, thinking the gifts were like the smal...

Greetings in the Lord~ I think of all the scriptures in the Bible, those that have to do with wisdom are my favorite.  Of course, that goes without saying that the book of Proverbs tops my list.  But another book that doesn't always get the same fanfare that I really like is the book of Ecclesiastes.  And over the years, today's word is one that the Lord has spoken to me several times, which I always am amazed by its profoundness.   It is Ecclesiastes 7:8:  "The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride." It is a very encouraging word really, as it assures us that no matter how things look at the start--as most ventures are full of promise and positive expectation, or no matter how difficult the process may be going--as nothing worthwhile is achieved without some effort and conflict, that by the end of it we will have gained wisdom and peace by its closure.  It doesn't say that the ending will be in our favor or be...

  Greetings in the Lord, One of the things we read about in the news these days is the FBI giving us warnings of possible security threats in the U.S. from extremists who sympathize with Hamas.  The FBI doesn't give specifics, of course, but cites the obvious--thousands of illegal immigrants are pouring into our country every day without any oversight or knowledge about who they are or where they are going.  Indeed, this lack of good judgment and poor government policy is setting us up for all sorts of problems.   But prophetically speaking, we can know disaster and calamity is not as random as one would think.  In fact, the Lord gives us warnings of His judgments before these things hit the fan:   "The Sovereign Lord never does anything until He reveals His plans to His servants the prophets."  Amos 3:7 Now, God's judgments are different than incidents carried out by spontaneous human will, but that is another discussion about, "Why do bad t...

Greetings in the Lord, Today's word comes from Job 34:16-30, and frankly, it is pretty self explanatory.  "Now listen to me if you are wise.  Pay attention to what I say.  "Could God govern if He hated justice?"  Are you going to condemn the Almighty Judge?  For He says to kings, 'You are wicked,; and to nobles, 'You are unjust.'  He doesn't care how great a person may be, and He pays no more attention to the rich than to the poor.  He made them all. In a moment they die.  In the middle of the night they pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand. For God watches how people live; He sees everything they do.  No darkness is thick enough to hide the wicked from His eyes.  We don't set the time when we will come before God in judgment.  He brings the mighty to ruin without asking anyone, and He sets up others in their place.  He knows what they do, and in the night He overturns and destroys them.  He strikes them do...

  Greetings in the Lord~ Well, these past couple of years especially, we are seeing that many judges in the U.S. are for sale, and probably have been for quite some time.  As far back as 30 years ago, I recall being told firsthand by a guy whose job it was to deliver money from the Mexican mafia to Texan judges to look the other way regarding cases about the drug trade down near the southern border.  True or not, I'll never know, but just last Sunday a retired judge from Colorado talked about judges that wouldn't recuse themselves from cases even though they had received "$100,000 cars as gifts" from people involved in cases they presided over.  Absolutely unbelievable!  She also talked about how many judges do not always have legal expertise in the nature of the cases they were assigned to, and often had to get input from other judges who did.  Oh yes, judges need to be experts in evidence and process, but many times end up being overly reliant on attorney...

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word is from Isaiah 43:1-13. But now, O Jacob, listen to the one who created you.  O Israel, the One who formed you says,  "Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you.  I have called you by name; you are Mine.  When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.  When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown.  When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.  For I Am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.   I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom; I gave Cush and Seba in your place.  Other were given in exchange for you.  I traded their lives for yours because you are precious to Me.  You are honored, and I love you." "Do not be afraid, for I am with you.  I will gather you and your children from east and west.  I will say to the north and south, 'Bring My sons and daughters back to Israel from t...
