But anyway we just want to welcome you Amanda to Influence Church. Not her first time here by the way. It was I'm gonna guess it was July or August of 2020 would that have been 21 right? Yeah so we we stayed open during the plan-demic and we hosted here ReAwaken America Tour with Clay Clark and we had a lot of the people that were here at that event are now in the office in Washington. Most of them they tried to arrest or DID arrest but somehow God got us through that and and so we really feel like it's just kind of a par t of a of an army that we were a part of and God blessed us. So I just want you to stand your feet put your hands together give a warm welcome to Amanda Grace. Thank you. Praise the Lord. That was some worship. Praise the Lord. I'm gonna ask for a moment my husband Chris to come up for a moment. I do this every time before I speak. I'll turn the mic on for a moment here. Thank you. I always like to have Chris pray before I begin. Then I'm gonna let it rip I promise. It's good to see all the people here. Thank you for coming here. First of people. Chris is a musician by the way. So good. Chris plays the piano and the guitar. So he's moved by music. So we're gonna pray. Okay. Oh Lord Jesus thank you. Your presence is filling this temple right now. Jesus we're praising you Lord. Oh Lord. Thank you for your life-giving power into our bodies with every breath Lord, we praise you Lord right now in the temple right here. All the people saying, amen. By the power of the blood of Jesus Christ by the spirit of the one true living God. May only the truth and power of Almighty God with authority now come forth Lord in the name of Jesus Christ. Father let nothing pass through my mouth that doesn't pass through your throne first. Allow me the humble privilege Lord of being a vessel of your power father. Thank you. We submit this to you Lord. You're welcome to have your way in this place. Amen. So we're here all the way from New York. I'm a born in Bronx.... We're like the bookends of the nation. California, New York, we're the bookends... we live in a similar atmosphere. We live in a similar atmosphere politically and so I understand well although when I got here you know the palm trees distracted me more. From the atmosphere it's very beautiful here and I'm from the Bronx New York. I'm a born and bred New York City girl or borough girl that the Lord thought it would be funny to take and put on a farm and have me marry a country boy and we have a pig, and we are the remake of Green Acres all over again and so we have Ark of Grace Ministries and we have Ark of Grace Sanctuary and the amazing part about the sanctuary is the Lord taught me stewardship and being faithful no matter how I felt through those animals and that part of the ministry is a reflection of the heart of God because God finds us in our broken abandoned orphan state and he sees into us and he goes I can work with that and I find these animals in their broken abandoned neglected orphan state and I see something in them and I go I can work with that I can work with that so it's a reflection of the heart of God and I had sent some pictures because the Lord sends prophetically animals at different times at Ark of Grace. Right before the indictments he sent a German shepherd named Cyrus he came with that name he came with that name before Cyrus a year prior on Passover he sent a baby lamb named Moses that was truly a Passover lamb that's Joshua because Joshua came after Moses and Joshua was rescued from market and Joshua kicked the window out on Dr. Angel our vet is named Dr. Angel I can't make this up his name is Dr. Angel from Bentley veterinary and Joshua strapping young boy totally different personality and when Joshua came I said to the Lord well what do you want me to name him and he said well I want you to name him Joshua now keep in mind he came like I don't know maybe August of 2024 and I want you to name him Joshua because Moses is not the one who led the people into the promise it was Joshua and so I named him Joshua months prior to the election and Joshua has been a joy to try to pull things out of because he was a very neglected sheep and the Lord has taught me a lot about this and we'll get into that what I have here in a moment but he's taught me a lot about shepherding because he told me years ago I'm gonna teach you firsthand why I call my people sheep and I'm gonna send you sheep so he sent sheep and he made me get in the sheep pen and it's a dirty place I do not dress like this when I am in the sheep pen I can guarantee you that and so sheep have a very interesting personality they are pretty much defenseless without their shepherd and on top of that they are overly curious and want to consume everything they shouldn't so you constantly have to watch the pen and what's getting into the pen because if they're sent their systems are so sensitive that if they over consume something or take something they're not supposed to there are actually toxins within their belly that can be released and kill them so the Lord sent me sheep and then he made me protect them so my husband will tell you at 2 a.m. now I pray off predators and for the most part they don't show up but every now and then there's a pack that comes this pack of coyotes that come I'd go tearing out two a.m. and my bathrobe out the door out the door running towards them in the woods by the way so I'm heading towards them because I know in this situation I have the authority they don't and my husband goes where you going I can't explain just come out when you can and I'm like out the door and he's gotten used to this behavior from me because Italian women have a nuclear button and when you detonate it you have about ten seconds to hide behind a piece of furniture because we're gonna blow which works really well for the prophetic so instead of me chasing my husband with a frying pan like old-school Italians would I grew up in that type of family by the way I grew up at that kind of family that we're always saying we're not arguing we're having a conversation and they're screaming at each other arguing over trivial pursuit with the demitas set out at Christmas this is the type of family I grew up in a very city Italian family that was highly dysfunctional so I understand what it's like to have that be your normal and then you come out of that with the Lord and break those cycles it was truly baptism by fire for me because since the time I was in the womb the enemy tried to kill me my mother smoked almost all the way through the pregnancy with me and I had developed very serious health issues by the age of four and that partly was the reason and so I was sick most of my childhood because spiritually I was so sensitive and what was going on in my parents marriage was so dysfunctional and terrible that my body was absorbing it and I was ending up in the hospital all the time and the Lord really brought and he took a very broken little girl and he put me on the Potter's wheel and he put me back together and he raised me up out of a pit to do what I do now so I know you are capable of doing that I know you are because God is no respecter of persons... he did it for me he could do it for you but it takes being faithful every day no matter how you feel because your emotions will run you into a ditch you know hard it is for an Italian woman to whittle down her emotions do you know how hard it is for me to sit there for 40 minutes with my mouth shut well God gives me a word and I can't ask one question not one but it's good training right crucifies the flesh and the Lord basically took me through a process for that you cannot circumvent the process whatever you're going through if you leapfrog the process you're gonna fall on your face at some point in the journey because the process is meant to prepare you to bring you into a promise to make you walk victoriously in the Lord because he doesn't want to set you up to fail he wants to set you up to give you victory in your life and bring glory to his name and have your life affect others and bring others into the kingdom so you can't circumvent the process I don't care if you're a person or a nation you can't do that and so what we're going to talk about tonight is where we're in a very interesting time right now in our nation very interesting and basically we are in a time where we are in this window between Purim and Passover and Purim happened March 13th this year from the book of Esther where a decree of destruction goes out and Almighty God ends up reversing that decree and delivering his people and also the name of God is never mentioned once in the book of Esther because it's proving God is working all the time even if you don't see him you don't feel him he's working and praise God for that praise God he is he is always working he is always moving whether you feel him or not he is living active on the throne and he is dealing with the matters of men and nations in the earth and so we entered this window March 13th and I want to read to you before we get into everything that has happened because I knew we were going to have an issue entering this window I knew it was going to get turbulent I knew we were going to have an issue entering it because of the time we're in in the nation right now because we went through a very biblical election back in November and entering into this time this Purim was marked by a blood moon and next Purim is marked by a blood moon so literally the first year of this administration is flanked by blood moons and we entered this season and we entered this time and we entered a 30 day window between Purim and Passover which actually starts oh I think in about three days or so Passover begins and that'll last about eight days and so I want to read to you some excerpts from the word of the Lord and I'm going to read to you from Isaiah and then we're going to talk about what happened when we entered this window and where we're going from it because this is probably one of the most pivotal and crucial and powerful and prophetic windows we entered was this past 30 days and if you one after the other we saw rapid fire and I will tell you something the enemy hates this time he hates this time he hates Passover because Passover reminds him of not only that God broke his superpower with Egypt God broke his superpower but it also reminds him of the sacrifice the Passover lamb Jesus Christ himself so the enemy tends to go into fits of rage about these things and you'll start to see certain things getting stirred up within the earth prophetically you'll start to see certain nations getting stirred up and you'll start to see certain things happen so I want to go back to April 2nd 2021 this was right before ReAwaken America started right before ReAwaken starts the Lord gives me this word and he says and the spirit of the Lord says this day those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings like eagles they shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not be faint or grow tired says the Lord that's Isaiah 40 31 now is the time my children of great pressure and a great pressing for as my children press toward the mark of the high calling the wicked shall find themselves being pressed they shall find themselves at the threshing floor for I the Lord shall thresh the wicked and as that occurs what has been concealed shall come out and forth before the people of this nation says the Lord of hosts this day September 27th 2023 my children this is the hour of your conscience to rise as the church to shout for the victory and raise the standard to cry out that I the Lord thy God stay my capital hand and do not allow further judgments to come upon the nation for the blood that cries out before me he capitalized that for it is the remnant of the church that has kept the lampstand burning so it has not been snuffed out says the Lord a beacon of light for the eagle to see to guide the eagle through the darkness in the storm for you shall be taken above it says the Lord the breath of my word that's capital shall cause an updraft my children mount up mount up capitals with wings like eagles for those who wait on the Lord shall and will renew their strength in this hour of the leg of the race that shall go over very bumpy and harsh terrain however there shall be the miraculous in the mist you shall see judges suddenly recuse you shall see attacks on churches and events thwarted miraculously so he gives that and we're entering that time of Isaiah 40 31 those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings like eagles they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not be faint or grow tired this is 2024 was the valley of decision for the nation 2025 was the valley of decision for the church because the church needs to do its job for what they're going to attempt in 2028 and we'll get into a little bit of that because 2028 is going to be a cataclysmic year if the church does not do its job this next four years because we are meant to be the standard we are the standard when then it when the enemy comes in like a flood the spirit of the Lord raises a standard against him a standard we are the standard the church the people of God it is us we are meant to bear that standard we are meant to be the voices crying in the wilderness Prepare Ye the way of the Lord Most High! Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand we are meant to be that in this nation we are meant to be that and cut through that dark company of voices that is still feverishly at work right now trying to cause these plans to derail Isaiah 46 verses 9 through 11 remember the former things of old for I Am God and there is no other I Am God and there is none like Me declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things are to not yet done saying my counsel shall stand and I will do all my pleasure calling a bird of prey from the east the man who executes my counsel from a far country indeed I have spoken it I will also bring it to pass I have purpose it I will also do it now that's interesting that's Isaiah 46 because during the 46th presidency there was a man that was called he was called and an eagle happens to be a bird of prey as well. They're an apex predator bald eagles they're at the top Isaiah 47 verses 9 through 11 but these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day: the loss of children and widowhood. they shall come upon you in their fullness because of the multitude of your sorceries for the great abundance of your enchantments for you have trusted in your wickedness you have said no one sees me your wisdom and your knowledge have warped you and you have said in your heart I am and there is no one else beside me therefore evil shall come upon you you shall not know from where it arises and troubles shall fall upon you you will not be able to put it off and desolation shall come upon you suddenly which you shall not know that is the time right now that scripture of not only what happened in November but what is going to happen to the pagan nations of this earth that have blasphemed the name of God and that have continued in it and continued in their sorceries because there are appointed times where the cup of iniquity becomes full and the Lord says it must be poured out it must be dealt with and we're reaching that boiling point in many nations right now in the earth and we have to pray and intercede before the throne of God that the enemy does not have the fullness of what he wants to accomplish to derail like he did back in 2017 because he attempted to derail in 2017 and a couple years later we watched a plague hit the earth because the church needs to do its job so thank God your pastor stayed open and he stood thank God for that because that's a shepherd a shepherd is brazen in the face of evil they say I'm not moving you're moving they don't allow predators in their pack and they don't allow serpents in their pulpits we are watching God drop one of the greatest plumb lines in history between the shepherd and the showman right now he is dropping one of the greatest divides we have ever seen and he's doing it purposely he's doing it purposely because the time of playing around is over the time of playing around from the pulpit is over the time of Simon the sorcerers and entertaining and smoke and mirrors so people don't have to feel guilty about their sin they don't have to feel uncomfortable for a moment so God can deal with it is over that time is over praise the Lord and this is why you see you see what you see right now because there is a righteous cleansing happening in the church there is there's a righteous cleansing happening but at the same time the enemy wants to get in there and create a lot of confusion about it as well but the shepherds and the showmen this is the great divide these next four years and this year especially because it's the Valley of Decision for the church and based on the church's decision is going to be based on then how God acts towards the church because the Lord really wants the church to rise up in the midst right now of what's happening literally rise up we are about we are on the cusp and the precipice if we will just understand this as the people of God in the ecclesia of the Acts church hitting the nation we are on the precipice of this right now we are on the precipice of entering the time like the Acts church where you see that increased power that increased glory you see that increased move of God you see miracles in great number you see the Holy Spirit moving the Ruach HaKodesh, you see him moving that he's welcome in to move and have his way in the pulpits of America because some of them evicted him and you know what he's doing now he's evicting them instead and he's coming back in and he's cleanin' house we cannot cry out to God for the nation and say God judge the wicked of this nation and expect he's not going to come do an inspection of his house first and see what's going on in his house because right now what's happening in the government is happening in the church and what's happening in the church is happening in the government it's running in tandem they're running together right now and that's because at the crux of it God is dealing with the same deep root because this is the time of the great excavation this is a time of a ratified excavation that God has ratified to be done in this nation in the book of numbers it says your sin will find you out and it will this is why we have a merciful God praise God but I will tell you the Lord will come to you many times privately to get you to course correct before he will ever do anything publicly he will come to you many times privately and the church is in a unique position right now in this nation it's not the time to shy away get complacent right we celebrated and now we time like the times of Nehemiah we got to roll up our sleeves we got to get to work notice the first command God gave Nehemiah was to go build the wall go build the wall rebuild it they had a sword in one hand and they were building in the other and then they had the fake news of the day that were coming and they were trying to disrupt the work stop work orders you know you got Ezra and Nehemiah there and there they go with their stop work orders which is kind of what happened to us in 2020 we got to stop work order and four years later the decree was found by Almighty God and he commanded the work to resume and when we entered this very serious window I'm going to tell you everything we've gone through in this window so far because it's going to give you a picture of what we're up against over the next four years in the nation because it's going to get very very very intense and bumpy at times and turbulent at times but it's all meant in order to shake and sift because when you shake and sift there's turbulence things move things are thrown up in the air but it exposes when you sift flower it exposes all those pieces that were hidden within it that you couldn't see but when you start sifting that's when the exposure happens on Purim, Trump Tower was stormed the day of Purim, it was stormed by a crowd of pro-Palestinian protesters operating in the same spirit of Amalek that Haman came from that line who came after the Jews Haman and Hamas are separated by one letter just one and it was stormed that should have given us an idea of the outcry that that these ancient spirits were going to bring in this time and so that happens also on Purim, Russia China and Iran met and they put pressure against President Trump with the sanctions so they came together in a triangular formation the JFK files after decades were released, unredacted and sifted and exposed all the players that were involved within this nation. We also saw the security clearances of presidential candidates from the past as well as those in my state of New York including Alvin Bragg and Letitia James revoked. The security clearance was revoked within this window. Now what's interesting is Haman's security clearance was revoked so it's interesting the timing of this because when he went before the king and Esther with this banquet that was being given it was all a setup when he went before them the second the plot was found out and the king realized he had put out a decree to kill his own wife which would have been a huge PR imagine if they had social media back then imagine what would have happened but the king revokes Haman's security clearance revokes it and removes that ring that gave him that clearance so it's interesting that that happened within this window we've had multiple enormous earthquakes Israel without warning broke a two-month ceasefire and claimed they were going to open "the gates of hell" that was there saying I thought isn't that interesting given what's going to happen with the abomination of desolation in the book of Revelation isn't that interesting terminology that was used. Also we saw the tariffs get introduced within this window and double and triple down on and that goes all the way back to the Civil War that's the first time tariffs started getting lowered and they started introducing an income tax was the Civil War so this is a deep dark route that goes back to the Civil War what has happened in this nation as far as what the government has decided to do with with lynching the people and misappropriating what they get also the American stock market plummeted within this window as gold hit an all-time high and I'll tell you why that's interesting in a minute and then the Chinese stock market had its worst crash since 1997 - 28 years... you know why that's significant because there was someone who reigned 28 years in the Bible and his name was Jehu and he reigned for 28 years and second Kings chapter 9 verses 4 through 10 says so the young man the servant of the prophet went to Ramoth-Gilead when he arrived the captains of the army were sitting outside and he said I have a message for you O captain Jehu said to which one of us and he said for you O captain so Jehu got up and they went into the house he poured the oil on Jehu's head and said to him thus says the Lord the God of Israel I have anointed you King over the people of the Lord over Israel you shall strike the house of Ahab your master so that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets and the blood of all the servants of the Lord who died at the hands of Jezebel for the entire house of Ahab shall perish and I will cut off from Ahab every male both bond and free in Israel I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat and like the house of Basha the son of Aha'jah and the dogs will eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel and there will be no one to bury her then he opened the door and fled because that was the instruction anoint him give the word and get your butt out of there because all havoc was about to break loose and so Jehu's reign was marked and it was marked by sweeping political upheaval the fulfillment of prophetic judgments against the house of Ahab and a dramatic shift in the nation's religious practices although his zeal in removing idol worship was very much a part of his reign he destroyed the house of Ba'al he destroyed the prophets of Ba'al he destroyed the house of Ahab his commitment to the law of the Lord fell short so even though he did what he was anointed to do his own commitment in areas of his life had fallen short and so Jehu reigned 28 years and isn't it interesting that the man that comes into office right sort of drives like a mad-man like Jehu did in some ways and 28 years after the horrible crash in 1997 under that office the Chinese stock market crashes I don't think that's a coincidence and the fact it happened between Purim and Passover should be even more of a signal to us that God is moving to deal with these nations that he's moving to deal with them in this time how much time do I have plenty okay we'll keep going okay I just want to make sure I was like make sure and I will tell you that the crash happened five days before Passover begins so that's something else to note and the Lord actually given me a dream about this in October of 2021 he had given me a dream and basically the dream was it was dark outside I was going to what looked like a house that was a business so keep in mind it's dark out right so it's a dark time I'm walking to a house that's a business my husband's uncle was there because he worked for Regeneron at the time and he dealt in the stock market so he was there in the dream and also there were TV screens all over in this house that was a business with what appeared to be reporting on Wall Street in the stock market there were men in there it appeared they may have been doing like stock trading and transactions suddenly in gold words the word urgent appears all capitals flashing across the screen and what happened after that is the men got very tense because the stocks plummeted they started to plummet and they kept on reporting the numbers going lower and lower and lower and the words urgent in gold letters was flashing across the screen what's interesting is that this president is associated many times with with gold he is associated with that but also we saw gold hit all-time high as we saw stocks plummet which is interesting as well so I had this dream three years ago and we're watching in a way this happened in a very delicate time in our nation within this window because I believe this is happening for multiple reasons the Lord is dealing things with things in this nation going all the way back to the Civil War and what happened so I believe that route goes back that far and he's dealing with that there was a shift that happened in the nation when that war happened and then from far beyond we began to see the corruption more and more take place within the government so I believe that the Lord is going back that far with this to begin to deal with this because if man can create wars or they can create a crisis they can increase tax and they can also increase their powers so isn't it interesting that President Trump is trying to end the wars and stop the financial crisis by doing something that is an enormous shift for the nation and the fact he's doing it so close to Passover is interesting because we're gonna get to Egypt in a minute here also I'm just gonna point this out because I saw this today and I thought hmm, maybe I'll say this tonight I was praying about it halfway through President Trump's second term he's gonna turn 80 years old he's gonna be 80 that is the age Moses was when the Lord called him at the burning bush that's the age he was the bush was on fire but it was never consumed because the people of God had been on fire in Egypt for generations but they were never consumed they were never destroyed and that's what the Bush represented when the Lord called Moses through that sign Moses was called about 1446 BC is the time he was called right interestingly enough and I just find this just fascinating President Trump's birthday is June 14th and he was born 1946 so I believe halfway through his presidency we're gonna see a type of burning bush moment come into his life and into the White House and into Washington DC I do believe that is coming 1446 when he called Moses and Moses didn't want to do it initially and the Lord basically tried to reason with Moses in a way and Moses finally went and he went to Egypt and he was one of the most incredible you know individuals of that time and what he did and what he did for the Lord and the sacrifices he was willing to make to do what God was asking him to do because what God was asking him to do was not easy he had a death sentence on him in Egypt and he was asking him to go back and free his people so when Moses went back when he had to go back into Egypt the Lord took him and Aaron and brought them before Pharaoh when it took about a year's time for ten plagues to be dealt and the Lord went after Egypt's economy he did and it's interesting that that stock market crash happened five days before Passover and the fifth plague that God imposed on Egypt was pestilence on all the livestock including cattle horses donkeys found in the fields were destroyed and the Jewish cattle were unharmed so much so Pharaoh went out himself and inspected the Jewish cattle and the Jewish livestock and not one was harmed why pestilence on the livestock why would that be the fifth plague because the Egyptians not only worship many animals and they had many animal-headed deities false deities that they worshipped but they were highly valuable horses and cattle they were a big part of their economy they were a big part of how they made their money Egypt bred horses and so basically by God doing that he was disrupting their economy and getting their attention in fact the God the false god Apis in Egypt was a bull was represented by a bull and Ba'al is represented by a bull so it's kind of like the same spirit working in different territories of the earth and it's interesting that our stock market is a bull for a strong stock market and so the Lord began to take from Egypt everything he had given he had allowed them to ascertain because the Lord allowed Egypt not that he agreed with them but he allowed them at that point to gain what they had gained and now he was going to take it away and all that wealth power and resources that they had that ancient demons utilized in order to raise up a superpower that they could use and dominate territories the Lord took the Lord took those he took the commodities he took the livestock he took he disrupted their economy he disrupted their lives all because they wouldn't obey one simple order, Let my people go. Let them go. Had they let them go we probably wouldn't have seen all the plagues we saw but they didn't and Pharaoh heartened his heart and this took about a year and we saw ten plagues happen and that's what's upon us right now and because of that there is a shift happening in the soul of this nation there is a shift happening in other nations that have blasphemed the name of God when the Lord went into Egypt and he did what he did it shifted the entire nation of Egypt and took away everything they used to dominate everything they worshiped every bit of commerce he came in and he disrupted and he disrupted it at the hands of two men Moses and Aaron Moses and Aaron were meant to deliver the judgments coming down from the court of God and they were utilized by God in that way at the hands of two men because of God and his power and his judgments Egypt fell and we're seeing that global shift happen right now and we're seeing these nations and all their hands have built and all the work of their hands and everything they've been getting away with all of a sudden it's the day of reckoning all of a sudden between Purim and Passover there's a day of reckoning that is now fast approaching and it's because it's an appointed time to deal with these nations right now in the earth and it's because there has been an enormous shift that happened in the earth and what we saw just happen with these events has actually triggered in the realm of the Spirit one of the largest changing of the guards we are going to see throughout the earth it's coming it's coming it has been triggered and it's coming and China is one of them because the blood that has been shed the innocent blood of those people and God's creation testifies against them Abel's blood testified the Word of God says that it testifies against them right now what's going on in France testifies against them in England we're about to see a Purim - Esther moment there in England that's percolating and arising and the Parliament the Lord is going to shake the Parliament so severely that is going to Brexit's going to pale in comparison to what's going to happen because this is an appointed time within the earth and based on what God is leading this nation to do is leading the leadership to do right now you're seeing it being triggered in the other nations you're seeing the tremors go forth into the other nations which is signaling not only an enormous shift but an enormous changing of the guard that is happening and I'm going to tell you this happened to in the New Testament this just didn't happen in the Old Testament Luke chapter 8 this happened as well when Jesus went to Gadarenes and what happened in Luke chapter 8 is that I'm going to get to it 8:26 through 40 that's what we're going to read then they sailed to a country of the garrisseens which is east of Galilee now when Jesus stepped out on the land he was met by a man from the city who was possessed with demons for a long time he had worn no clothes he was not living in a house but among the tombs he was among the dead seeing Jesus he cried out and fell down before him and shouted loudly what business do we have in common with each other Jesus son of the most high God I beg you do not torment me before the appointed time of judgment now he already was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man for it had seized him violently many times and he was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert then Jesus asked him what is your name and he answered legion because many demons had entered him they continually begged him not to command them to go into the abyss now a large herd of pigs was feeding there on the mountain the demons begged Jesus to allow them to enter the pigs and he gave them permission [this was a setup] then the demons came out of the man and entered the pigs and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned when the herdsmen saw what had happened they ran away told it to the city and out in the country and people came out to see what had happened they came to Jesus they found the man from whom the demons had gone sitting at Jesus's feet clothed and in his right mind and they were frightened those who had seen it told them how the man who had been demon possessed had been healed then all the people of the country of the Gadarenes and the surrounding district asked him to leave them because they were overwhelmed with fear so Jesus got into the boat and returned but the man from whom the demons had gone out kept begging him pleading to go with him but Jesus sent him away saying return home and tell about all the great things God has done for you so the man went away proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him Jesus delivered one man and that one man evangelized the whole city one man delivered one man and that one man evangelized the whole city and right before this the enemy sends a storm to stop him he sends a storm Jesus is sleeping the disciples are screaming this is the scene they wake him up and he gets up and he rebukes the wind he rebukes the waves and everything becomes calm now the enemy sent that storm and the enemy sent that storm because he knew if Jesus the second he stepped his foot on the soil of the Gadarenes that was the eviction notice for those territorial principalities that they were gonna go the second His foot touched the soil they were trying to prevent him literally from touching down on the soil of that area because it would transform it and the second he did he touched that soil a shift occurred a shift immediately occurred and they immediately went into panic the kingdom of darkness and this is why they sent the man in the tombs throwing him before Jesus begging not to be sent back to the abyss because they had a lock on that whole area they had a lock on that whole territory they had the whole economy going there and let's make a deal happens between Jesus and this Legion about where they can go see we think this is a new game show let's make a deal it's not they played it back then and they asked to be sent into the pigs now why first of all that area those pigs were a big part of their economy those pigs were used to worship false gods those pigs were also used for food they were used for sacrifices and so if the demons could go into them they could still keep a hold on the area what they probably didn't know is that pigs are one of the smartest animals on the planet they have the intelligence of a four-year-old child I should know I have multiple and they can open doors locks and do all sorts of funny things I have poppy she knows how to open her door you shut her in at night there's poppy back I'm gonna tell the poppy story quick before I go and I got to tell the poppy story very fast the Lord made me take this piggy she is now 300 pounds she's going to be 500 pounds dr. Angel and for me I said we'll put a saddle on her we'll write her to the mailbox we'll give her a job we'll do something with her so poppy was at the Duchess County Fair and my husband drug me against my will there he wanted to go we kept at it so I finally okay I give-in... we're gonna go and poppy is tagged for market and she was raised in 4-H and her owner was a teenage girl named Kaitlyn and I talked to Kaitlyn and Chris is just fascinated with this pig and I'm going Lord is he feeling okay because he's never fascinated like never interested in taking an animal it's a fight when I have to take an animal in you know we play let's make a deal at that point so so I give Kaitlyn my number just in case anything ever happens or you know they ever needed assistance with an animal or something four days later I get a text Amanda can you please intervene and take poppy there's somebody else interested in her I can't have this happen to her I want her to go live out her life on a sanctuary so I go okay Lord I'm going to intervene in faith but this is a big animal so I need some confirmation here on this so I intervene right I speak to the uncle now we're gonna get poppy okay now we're gonna take poppy at the sanctuary so I go okay Lord I'm doing this in faith I need confirmation on this now nobody knows we're taking in poppy I haven't announced it nobody knows a thing we go to church that Sunday was around the time of my birthday in August and pastor Sam and Jamie's two kids come running up to me Caleb and Ellie they're adorable and they're very sweet and they had a white bag and they said this is for your birthday Miss Amanda now pastor Sam and Jamie didn't know anything either so nobody knew so I make a big deal and I sit down with them but what did you get me and I make it a big deal for them and I pull the necklace out it was necklace and on the necklace it said August poppy it said August poppy and I looked up in the middle of church and I went I hear you Lord I'm taking the pig I'm taking the pig and this has happened many times but pigs are one of the smartest animals on the planet they knew something entered them they knew and they drowned themselves because even the pigs knew how dark it was the pigs knew that man was in the tombs with the dead he didn't drown himself he didn't run us towards a cliff those pigs the second that entered them they went to go drown themselves because they knew what had entered them and how dark it was and when this happened their whole economy was disrupted their whole area was disrupted that man that was in the tombs is now of a sound mind the pigs are drowned their livestock and their commerce is ruined and when they all come to see what Jesus did because he literally shifted that whole area blew the chains off delivered a man that would become the evangelist of Gadarenes and disrupted what what the enemy was giving them financially to prosper he disrupted it and they begged Jesus to leave after that instead of surrendering instead of submitting instead of humbling themselves they begged him to leave because what Satan gave them they desired more than what Jesus Christ just demonstrated before them that's what we have to get a grasp of in this nation too if the Lord right now is purposefully shifting things to break chains of bondage to disrupt economies to get the attention of billionaires get their attention what their hands have built he could take away in a moment then we should welcome that because it's about time the church starts learning God's economy about time and not the world he doesn't submit to the world's economy they submit to him the earth is the Lord's in the fullness thereof his eyes wander to and fro the earth is his footstool it's about time the church learns God's economy because it will shift things immensely for the church in this next four years if they understand that because sometimes what the world gives us the physical the tangible we want to hold on to while driving God out we want to hold on to that we want to drive him out that is what the United States did over decades that is what part of the church did over decades that is what China did over decades and here comes Jehu annointed and driving like a madman here he comes and here comes Jesus Christ stepping his foot down on Gadarenes and making the whole kingdom of darkness quake because when God anoints someone or appoints someone the enemy is going to send a storm he's going to send a road block he's going to try to trip them up he's going to try to destroy him if he did it to Jesus Christ in that boat he's going to try to do it to you and when Jesus rebuked it and rebuked the storm and immediately continued on his mission all of Satan's interests were interfered with all of them at that moment were in danger because what Satan did didn't stop it and then Almighty God came and turned it on a tip because the Lord's economy works a little bit different and we are going to see that in this season and we're already seeing that because the church in this time is facing their Gadarenes moment they're facing it when a cleansing happened in Gadarenes the people told Jesus to leave because it upset their whole system and way of life it upset what they were accustomed to it upset what they deem normal and here comes the supernatural into crush their normal and here comes the supernatural into crush China's normal and to crush Wall Street's normal here it comes but we're facing that Gadarenes moment and will the church welcome that in for God to shift things in order to bring his word and evangelize the most unreachable of areas and shift that economy and shift how business is done there or are they going to tell him to leave because they're too accustomed to what the enemy's feeding them that's the choice because like I said what's happening in the government is happening in the church and what's happening in the church is happening in the government because God is dealing with the same root and on Wall Street and China in the stock market the Lord what's being faced there is the pharaohs of the world are facing God entering their commodity their commerce their trade their way of life what they have and in this moment the kingdom of darkness is scrambling to find lesser hosts to go into in order to try to stay in that area but those lesser hosts will be driven out to because this is the time in the hour for it it's here praise the Lord it's here and here and what will we do as the church as we face this and we're facing an incredibly prophetic Passover I'm expecting more of a shaking this Passover than in the years past and I'm expecting it because that's what God had to do to Egypt to set his people free and that's what God has to do to the nations to set his people free the underground church that's been crying out in Iran and in China do we think God is not going to answer those cries in this season because he is and God is about to shake Iran like they have never been shaken in decades because it's the appointed time for him to come in and disrupt them and their court and their economy and their generals and their livestock and their livelihood he's coming in to disrupt it because when God disrupts it the enemies eviction notice goes out when he disrupts it he's disrupting the lifeline the enemy has given a people to keep them oppressed and in bondage he's disrupting it and that's what what the Lord wants to do with some of you he wants to disrupt the lifeline the enemy has given you and he wants to disrupt it in order to bring about a greater deliverance in your life and push you in to break through that you have been pounding on that locked door for years we are in a time where there is a window of heaven open it is it is an appointed powerful time in the earth right now and you can see it when you watch the kingdom of darkness mobilize in different areas you could tell how frantic they are you could tell whether it's gone to ludicrous level by how they mobilize so we have to recognize that we have to be like the sons of Issachar discerning the times and the seasons that's what we should be as the church we should be able to recognize the work of our father and the work of our adversary we should be able to recognize both David always recognized the work of the Philistines and he recognized the work of the hand of God in his life he wasn't perfect but he recognized it and we need to be that right now in this nation we need to be able to recognize as the church the work and hand of God and the work of the adversary and the opponent at work because we have the authority of the believer Satan does not he may comb the word of God looking to use it in fact he used it against Jesus in the world and as he quoted Psalm 91 so he knows the word but he misuses it he misappropriates it he perverts it the power that raised Christ from the dead dwells within us it's within us it's not within him it's not within his agents they don't have an answer for that power because it defeated them and it broke them and the reason why Satan at the cross was so humiliated because it was Egypt all over again the Lord tricked him in goaded him in him lured him in and then broke what was his and the same thing happened at the cross and that's why the earth shook and the veil to the holy of holies tore and gave us access to Jesus Christ to Almighty God that's why we are going to have to go deeper with the Lord in this time press in more seek him more be in his word more that is your real soul food I understand fried chicken and grits are amazing but that the real soul food is the word of God beloved I wish above all you would prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers your soul has to prosper for your life to prosper the soul of the nation has to prosper for the nation to prosper and we are in that war for the soul of the nation it is us this is a forefoot on spiritual grounds for its soul this is a war for the soul of the church because the enemy has attempted to ensnare it we should war on those legal grounds of the word of God legal ground spiritually because I will tell you something intellectualism does not have the answer for a spiritual war it doesn't intellectualism will gaslight and start more wars than it doesn't and those who are intellectuals and they've been gifted don't get me wrong demons will run circles around intellectuals that don't know God circles around them because they're not a threat they're a tool they're a tool to them when you fight that war on spiritual grounds there is not a demon in hell that has an answer for that there is not a demon in hell that can ultimately override that when you stand rightfully before your father in that authority in submission surrender worship praise for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down the destruction of strongholds and let me tell you something over this next four years some high places are going to fall in this nation some very serious high places are going to fall in the nation because that spirit that inhabited Jezebel and others is getting evicted from certain areas of the nation the Lord has sent out an eviction notice against it including in the church including in the church and this is why you see coming to a feverish pitch this revelation a reward that we're in because we're in one we're in a war of revelation God's revelation versus the corrupted revelation of the enemy that's what it is it's a war of revelation right now and we have been given a living active book in the word of God living active full of revelation full of power and what the enemy wants to make you think is you speaking those words ain't going to do nothing to change your circumstance and he's a liar he's a liar because he knows the second you start speaking it and swinging that sword it's going to be very difficult for him to get near you the word of God says the enemy roams about like a lion seeking whom he may devour when lions roam they're circling their prey they're studying them they're watching them they're watching them feed they're watching the hurts and then they look for the weakest entry point because they want the least amount of collateral damage to them when they take down prey what we need to get as the church is we become so expensive for the enemy so many resources allocated that he goes this isn't worth it and he retreats we want to get that much to him that he's going to get that much collateral damage if he dare tries to take what our father has given us that's the point we have to get to because right now his resources are being judged in certain areas he's losing resources in certain areas he's getting desperate and he's going to turn his visceral on the church he's about to turn his complete visceral on the church and we've got two options we cower and we water things down to his liking or we evict him and kick his sorry butt out of the church if the schools would get this they wouldn't be in the shape they're in but I will tell you something there was a monumental shift in this nation and prayer is coming back to the schools of America I promise you in this season in this time it is prayer is coming back because we are experiencing one of the most incredible shifts in our nation that have ever happened and I will tell you very quick 2028 we are facing an election year the next Shmita year every seven years is Shmita year 9 - 11 happened on a Shmita year the 2008 banking crisis happened on a Shmita year election year beginning of a Shmita year Jewish leap year which means double Purims Little Purim and Purim we are facing all of these things at once and a blood moon on New Year's Eve that year going into the next year there's a reason for that the warning is now that warning is being put out now for 2028 because these things are going to come in a cataclysmic crash that we have to be equipped ready for seeing coming and interceding way before it happens that's what we're meant to do we're meant to see it coming in the distance and engage it there and we have to do that we have to do that so what I'm going to do is I'm going to hand it back over to pastor Phil and pastor Tammy and if they want to do prayer we'll do prayer now there's something you don't know about me Erica do we have that picture that's me can you see it oh my gosh you don't know I was a pig farmer see the Lord works in incredible ways he does all right eat more bacon I'm just kidding all right I love you hey you know I know you've been inspired I know you've been challenged I know you've been moved spiritual all those kind of things and the question is what will you do with it you know what will you do with you go you will you walk away go that was cool you walk away go like I'd like you hear more but I think whenever inspiration comes the enemy wants to grab that and take it away and take away decision and decision is really where it all happens isn't it so what I want you to do is we're gonna we're gonna just have the bands sing through one song just one chorus actually and while they do I want you right now just to bow your head I want you to think one thing what is the one thing God is showing you you need to make a decision on tonight okay and then be willing to release it I guarantee you if it's the one thing that God is showing you it's probably gonna be harder to release and you're gonna want to go down the list of something easy to release but why not just say God I'd like to go ahead and make a big step into the kingdom amen all right so let's just bow our heads let's just you seek God right where you are you just pray right where you are you can pray out loud you can pray quietly but seek the Lord right now and just listen to this chorus as the band plays....
