Divine instructions for us in political times

The following are excerpts from prophecies regarding the national situation:

For the Lord hath yet a purpose to perform within the remnant of His people. The Lord hath a thing that He shall bring to pass. Behold, the Lord would say unto thee that thou shalt not be passive in this matter, lest the purposes and the plans of God should be set aside many years, perhaps generations. But thou shalt believe, for there must be a performance of all that God hath begun within this very generation.

Rise in faith to believe that God can take this house and bless this nation; that the prayers, faith and the ministries that God raised up can be like the jawbone of an ass in the hand of Samson to bring down the high and mighty who would lead the nation to destruction. Behold, there are many who see the need but wander in confusion; for they know not what to do, and there are no weapons in their hands. But the Lord shall place within thy hands, O house of God, weapons of faith and prayer, that ye may turn the tide, if ye will believe to be that instrument in the hands of the Lord. Thou shalt be mindful of the words of Jonathan, “The Lord is not limited to save by many or to save by few.” Art thou willing to be that remnant in the land that shall contend for righteousness and see the Lord restore again the foundations? Can ye believe? Is thy heart so deceived that ye shall believe that this nation must surely fall under the hand of antichrists and Satan and be judged? Or will ye believe that this nation can be the salt that has not lost its savor?

Oh, rise in the Spirit, ye saints of the Lord, for it is the day to make thy claim before the Lord that this house shall walk wholly in the Spirit. Regardless of what persecution shall come, they shall rise in faith, in one accord, to be the instruments in the hand of the Lord to turn multitudes to righteousness and see the saving grace of the Lord visited upon a land that God hath brought forth. Yea, thou shalt arise in the Spirit and thou shalt rebuke the hordes of evil that should rise to bring revolution and destruction in the land. For hatred shall rage by devil power, but thou shalt believe the Lord and there shall be a flow of love, a love that shall cover and conquer. Thou shalt believe, and the Lord shall minister to the needs of many. Behold, the insidious plots shall be discovered and shall be tripped, not because there are wise men at the helm, but because there are intercessors in the closet who love the Lord their God and do contend for righteousness. Thou shalt not look upon the vicious systems and say, “Behold, they are corrupt beyond redemption.” Thou shalt look at the mighty hand of the Lord and say, “All things are possible to him that believeth.”

Be thou glad and rejoice in this that the Lord hath chosen thee to do. And say not, “My hands are helpless,” for in thy hands will the Lord place great grace. And in thy heart shall the Lord proclaim a word, and thou shalt be faithful to speak that word. Behold, it shall produce a trembling in the hearts of men of evil, and it shall produce a leaping within the breast of those who look unto the Lord for deliverance.

Would you be willing to stand as a part of a company that God will use in this land? Oh, this is a cause worth dying for. This is something worth living for with all your heart. We will print it; we will speak it; we will send it out wherever we can on radio; we will minister it by the force of our hands. We will bind at the throne of God principalities and powers and see them broken. Lord, give a revival in the land of righteousness. Let us pledge ourselves to be instruments in the hand of the Lord.

It is a time that He shall demand a commitment and a dedication from thee such as thou hast not walked in heretofore. He shall call upon thee to spend hours before His face, crying unto Him one for another. Travail shall enter upon the soul of many, for the Lord bringeth forth a new thing on the earth, the like of which has not come forth before. He shall gird thee with His strength, and thou shalt continue to labor and to travail and to pray until thou hast seen the hand of the Lord establish a great and a mighty thing in the earth. Rejoice in it, and if it should be thy life that ye should forfeit as a sacrifice for that which the Lord bringeth forth, count it a joyful thing, for few people have ever been permitted to walk before the face of the Lord and to know His greatness and know His power as the Body of Christ shall know it as they follow on to know the Lord.

The words that shall come to this house and to this land shall be very strong; for behold the wickedness and the iniquity of the people shall be proclaimed, and the treason in the land shall be uncovered. This which God is doing will not be a political movement or part of a party, but it will be a proclamation of the treason that is in the land. The unfaithfulness and the rebellion against the Lord God shall be made known, that there might be a turning of the hearts of the people unto the Lord. God is raising up a people who will speak forth His word with such a boldness, but it will not be a political movement; it will be a spiritual force. The people who hear the Lord will take action in the parties. God wants His Church to speak His word and to be that force for righteousness!

Be not dismayed, for the word of the Lord in the mouths of those with faith shall be as a chisel that shall chisel away at the walls of Babylon and bring them down. When the Lord did bring down a nation, did He not raise up a prophet? And the word of the Lord came unto that prophet to prophesy against that country. He did prophesy against it; and though it seemed to be flourishing and strong, it surely came down according to that Word. The Lord hath spoken unto thee and said, “Behold, thou shalt prophesy the word of the Lord.” For the word of the Lord shall grow and be multiplied, and it shall bless thee. The Lord shall bring down every false, haughty thing that has exalted itself against the knowledge of the Lord. Thou shalt indeed be a blessed people; rejoice in it!

The Lord thy God hath settled upon this house a mantle like that which was given to the prophet Elisha by Elijah. This mantle has been given unto thee as a sign of God’s presence in thee, even as it was prophesied in the word that God’s judgment shall be with this house. And this mantle shall be as a symbol that His judgment is with thee to be used against anything that shall rise against this house. It shall be used for that which comes against thee as individuals; and it shall be used against that which comes against thee as a Body. This judgment shall be used against anything that shall come against this country, for it is for us to use. Take ye the judgment, and use it even as God has given it unto thee; for He has given thee the sign that this mantle has been settled upon this house, even as Elijah gave his mantle unto Elisha. The word of the Lord shall be in thy mouth as a sharp two-edged sword and it shall bring judgment upon the evildoers who have set themselves to bring destruction to this nation.

Let the prophecy become creative. Let it become like a mighty machine of war. Ye shall prophesy, and there shall not be a stronghold of the enemy that will stand, for thou shalt be an instructed people that shall war by a word from the Lord.

Let there be a hearing ear to hear what the Lord hath proclaimed. For the word of the Lord shall be committed unto thee, and thou shalt speak it forth. Yes, thou shalt not cease to speak it forth. Day after day and week after week thou shalt not weary of it. Thou shalt not make thy prophecies according to the clouds upon the horizon or the wars or rumors of wars that shall attend the nations of the earth, nor shall they be of the distress of men’s hearts being perplexed. These things shall not invade thy thinking, but thou shalt be the people of the Lord who prophesy against Babylon and prophesy against the dragon that cometh forth; thou shalt speak the words that shall preserve a people in the midst of the earth.

For behold, the under regions are stirred, and they are disturbed because of the blessing that the Lord hath turned loose. Like an appointment of eternity, the calendar hath come to a certain day and hour, and they are aware that this is the day that they have dreaded. This is the hour that many of them shall be sent to the abyss and the judgments of the earth shall begin upon the earth. Yea, the wicked and ungodly and the devil powers shall be broken and be brought down, and it shall seem to be an hour of chaos until thou shalt behold the mighty hand of God that hath brought it forth; for the Lord shall have vengeance upon all who have rejected and mocked the ways of the Lord.

Behold, there shall be sincere men who shall seek thee out to find the prophet in thy midst. For in the midst of soothsayers and witchcraft, in the midst of evil, in the midst of devil-possessed men that shall harass the country, shall there not also be that which the Lord raiseth up that shall instruct men in the way of righteousness? For behold, the Lord saith, “Thou shalt be the salt of the earth, and thou shalt not lose thy savor; but thou shalt preserve in the midst of the land the workings of the Lord and that which the Lord bringeth forth.”

We cry unto Babylon that she shall come down by the word of the Lord. Babylon, thou art to fall! There is to be no remainder of the people of the Lord who are held captive and a prey within thee! For we cry unto the people of the Lord, wherever they be found; “Come out of her, come out of her, O people of the Lord! Be not a partaker of her sins, for the day has come! The day has come of thy liberation! Thy appointed judgments are completed, and now the Lord shall purge thee with hyssop. He shall search thee out until truth is found in thee.”

O God, let the purposes of Satan to create an adverse image of every righteous and good man that standeth forth in the land be rebuked and exposed, and let integrity come forth. O God, we would see Thee place some of Thy men in high places. Bring forth Thy Jeremiahs and Thy Isaiahs in this hour for the glory of God, for Thou art not slack concerning Thy promises. Lord, start it even now.

O thou nation raised up by the Lord, we bless thee. We bless thee that the Spirit of the Lord shall bring conviction unto thee and that sin shall once more be sin unto thee, and righteousness shall be righteousness unto thee. Behold, the righteous man shall not be made evil in thy sight, nor shall an evil man seem to be righteous in thy sight. But the day shall come that the Lord shall expose and bring down the refuge of lies in this nation. He shall bring His glory and His visitation upon it again.

Ye shall not break ranks, but ye shall march forth as the army of the Lord. And who shall stand against thy prayers, O house of the Lord, if ye be so united in the Lord. Oh, let there be a crying together again until the Lord shall move upon this land. We are not raised up to be blessed within these four walls. We are raised up that we shall be a voice that shall reach this nation. O my God, wilt Thou not open up the wisdom of prophets in this place, that statesmen and politicians and men in high places may seek it out, that there shall be wise counsel again?

Someone has to plead our country’s cause. Plead our country’s cause every day. The leaders are not doing this, but we must.

God is requiring action of His people. There shall be a prophesying against the confusion in the land, a prophesying against the rebellion, a prophesying against the leaders who are playing into the hands of Satan to bring confusion to this land. The principality of perversion that turns the hearts of the people and institutions to confusion is being broken.

Say not that the rulers and the courts of this land are right. They are not right. God raised this nation up, and He hath proclaimed it, and it is His! They may rule Him out of the schools and say that men may not call upon His name; they may bring many things to pass. But the Lord will yet humble this nation, and it shall pray—in school and out of school. The Lord will bring this nation unto a place where they must call upon the name of the Lord, but let it be that thou shalt cry unto the Lord that the judgment shall not be punitive, but that judgment shall instruct and that judgment shall correct: it shall be a corrective thing that shall come to the house of God and to the nation.

Let your heart rejoice, for this is the day that the word of the Lord shall come in creative power from the lips of the humblest saint. He shall prophesy and behold, there shall be the judgment and destruction of Babylon’s walls.

Behold, in a day when the Caesars were living, in the days in which the mighty conquerors were upon the earth and when there were men of valor, it was in those days that the Lord God did pick the tax collector, the fishermen, the men by the wayside, the one sitting under a fig tree, and said unto them, “Follow Me.” And behold, upon them did rest the anointing of the Lord that did turn a century and did bring down empires and did change the course of time and caused men to make their calendars from those days. So it shall be in this hour. Behold, they who think to bring revolution and change to the earth shall be forgotten before this generation hath passed away. And those who make havoc to the ends of the earth in purges of blood, they shall be forgotten before thy sons and daughters have come to maturity. But remembered shall be that heritage of the Lord that hath come forth in the time of travail, that had been manifested in an hour in which the world was prepared for their coming. They shall reap where they have not sown. They shall bring down by a Word, because it is prepared from of old that that Word should be spoken in the power of God.

Behold, thou art brought forth in the Lord to upset all the battles that Satan has worked in the kingdoms of this earth. Oh, that thy heart should look unto the Lord in this hour; for is it not devil power in government that hath brought about confusion and a state of anarchy within this land? Behold, riots have filled the land because of devil-possessed men who have moved into a place of rule. Thou shalt rise in the name of the Lord and know that this is indeed a word from God: there shall be prophets and there shall be companies of righteous ones that shall bind in the name of Jesus and bring down these things that have been a spoiling of the nation, and they shall bring an end to the slaughter and sacrifice of the innocent unto the gods of war. Thou shalt arise in the name of the Lord, and thou shalt bless and glorify the Lord of Hosts, for His is the power and the Kingdom and the glory forever. Thou shalt replace the usurper. Thou shalt bind him and bring him down, for he hath not the right to rule nor dominate a nation that God hath raised up for a destiny.

Be filled with the words of the Lord, that ye shall speak them and echo them again and again. For by the words of the Lord that shall come forth living and anointed in this hour shall the Lord do signs and wonders, shall He establish Zion, shall He bring utter confusion to Babylon and bring the counsels of the wicked to naught. Even principalities and powers shall destroy one another in an amazing reaction to their purposes being frustrated by the hand of the Lord God. Thine eyes shall see the conclusion of many things that have been the conflict and the controversy of ages. Thou hast been raised up to see a completion of all of these things. Hath He anointed thee for a beginning? Behold, He shall perform it.

We take the faith that was in God’s people as they stood at Jericho’s walls, and we cry for the fortresses of the enemy to come down in the name of the Lord. Let them come down in the name of the Lord! And that which the Lord hath proclaimed, we claim it.

The word cometh from the Lord in this hour the like of which men have yearned to see and have not known. Many shall stumble and draw back from it, but those who weigh it carefully and look to the Lord until it is confirmed and becomes a living, burning thing within their spirits, they shall walk in the miracle of the word of God in this hour.
