A Most Dangerous Time

 A Description of the Present Plight of America with a Prophetic Word!

Introduction

I want to follow up with what I posted yesterday about God’s call to repentance in order for Him to begin to heal the land of division, sin, rebellion, violence, murder, deceptions, and most important, America’s independence from God and going its own way. 

This oracle and the oracle previously posted titled "Mindset" demonstrates the seriousness of America’s present plight and the need for God’s people to be interceding hourly for America and its leadership.

America must move to a renewed mindset of inviting Him to come back to America.  Allow me to say, the ball is in the court of the church and the nation to wake up for the time grows shorter and shorter for the preparation of war is coming to the nations of the world.  

The Replacement of Peace with a Military Build Up for World War III Frame!

 We now are living in a most dangerous world which is getting more insane and out of control day by day. If you are not concerned or worried about what is happening in the world and especially in America, you should be. We are in the end-times, and the closing of this age is not far off.

Let me be bold and say that you are now witnessing DEFCON 2 (Near Nuclear War – Armed forces 6 hours ready to deploy).  

Rogue nations are gearing up (preparing) for nuclear exchange as the United Sates has now declared testing of nuclear weapons which America has not done for many years.

America is flexing its military might all over the world to counter other nations doing the same thing especially China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, etc. Fear and war gamesmanship runs high at the present time because nations do not trust one another and are vying to be #1 in world power and domination.

The Political Party Replacement Frame! 

 At the same time, America is now in the midst of the beginning of a hard-core revolution which is gaining strength by promoting the ideology of socialism which is the soft term for Marxism/communism.

  Sadly, 66% of the Democrats now favor socialism over capitalism. In fact, a Marxist/ Socialist wing of the democratic party has now taken control of the Democratic Party.

 It could now be called the Democratic Socialistic Party of America far from the Democratic Party of years ago.  I thought I would never see such things like this taking place in the “Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.”  But it is taking place at an alarming speed right under our noses.

America is now at a crossroad in terms of keeping its Constitution and Bill of Rights and traditions to govern the society which is under fire by the Marxist/Islamist Democratic Socialistic Party. 

They want to create a utopia of extreme central control over all aspects of the America society as we see in North Korea, Russia, China, Iran, Cuba, and other countries ruled by dictators. 

Currently we are seeing the penetration and spreading of Socialism/ Communism into the mayor positions in some big cities in America as well as into Governor offices, Congress, and other institutions.

 This is a creeping or spreading cancer infecting the America society while most Americans do not have a clue of how dangerous is the external factor of nations preparing for war and the internal rapid rise of Socialistic/ Marxism in America’s government and society.

Gary Bauer, just recently made this comment in his daily newsletter entitled American Values: Fighting for Faith, Family, and Freedom (April 28, 2026):

“There is a growing Marxist-Muslim alliance in America. It wants government to control everything. It wants religious liberty restricted.

It wants more babies to be aborted and more children brainwashed with LGBTQ propaganda and “transitioned” into another gender, which is impossible and insane. It believes America is an evil nation that must be “fundamentally transformed.

If it gains power, it will rule with an iron fist.”

There is also one other replacement frame causing internal decay of the American culture and its future effect on the next generation.

The Social Replacement Frame. 

 It seems that America has become “lovers of pleasure” – sports, movies, self-enhancement, materialism, mammon, education, climbing the social and economic ladders rather than “lovers of God”  who are seeking Him and desiring to live according to His principles He has given in the Book called the Bible. 

When God is replaced by the “lovers of pleasure and self,” bad things begin to take place. In other words, God’s displeasure begins to take place, and things begin to fall apart in a nation.  Do you see this happening now in America?

Leaders of the nation become the blind leading the blind at all levels of leadership from the halls of Congress, courts, governors, mayors of large cities, down to the local school boards.

  President Trump and Vice President Vance and their administration are attempting to rescue America from its downward course, but we will see how all this plays out in the very near future. There have already been 5 attempts on assassinating President Trump to clear the way for a socialistic takeover of America.

The Biblical Frame

In the meantime, we should not be surprised of all these things taking place when we read the Holy Spirit leading Apostle Paul two thousand years ago to pen the following regarding the end time description of lost humanity from a biblical frame of reference.

BUT UNDERSTAND this,

 that in the last days will come (set in)

 perilous times of great stress and trouble

[hard to deal with and hard to bear].

(My comment: Greek for “Perilous” – fierce, harsh, savage, dangerous)

For people will be

lovers of self

 and

[utterly] self-centered,

lovers of money

 and

aroused by an inordinate [greedy] desire for wealth,

proud and arrogant

and

contemptuous boasters.

 They will be

 abusive

 (blasphemous, scoffing),

 disobedient to parents,

 ungrateful,

 unholy

 and

 profane.

 [They will be]

without natural

 [human] affection

(callous and inhuman),

relentless

 (admitting of no truce or appeasement);

 [they will be]

slanderers

 (false accusers, troublemakers),

intemperate

and 

loose in morals

 and

conduct,

uncontrolled

and 

fierce, haters of good.

 [They will be]

treacherous

 [betrayers],

rash,

 [and]

 inflated with

 self-conceit.

 [They will be]

lovers of sensual pleasures

 and

vain amusements more

than

and 

rather than lovers of God.

2^nd Timothy 3:1-4, (AMP)

In addition, Apostle John also penned a last day warning.  It is a strong warning of the world winding down and approaching the Great Seven Year Tribulation time of God’s 21 judgments on a rebellious world as recorded by Apostle John in the Book of Revelation chapters 4-19.

   Could it be that America is too far down the road of decline and fall for it to return to the Creator God?  Again, I want to remind you of God’s Word to rogue nations who do not beed their knee to God’s instructions recorded in His book – the Holy Scriptures.

I do not wish to blow smoke, but these additional verses below represent how God treats backsliding nations and unbelieving nations who have chosen to go down a path of wickedness. God speaks:

  How long,

O simple ones

 [open to evil], will you love being simple?

 And the scoffers delight in scoffing

and

[self-confident]

fools hate knowledge?

 If you will turn

 (repent)

and 

give heed to my

reproof,

behold,

 I [Wisdom] will pour out my spirit upon you,

 I will make my words known to you.

 Because

I have called and you have refused

 [to answer

have stretched out my hand and

no man has heeded it,

and

you treated as nothing all my

 counsel

 and

would accept none of my reproof,

 I also will laugh at your

calamity;

 I will mock when the thing

comes that shall cause

 you

terror and panic—

 When your panic comes as a storm

and 

desolation

and

 your calamity comes on as a whirlwind,

when distress

and

anguish come upon you.

Then will they call upon me [Wisdom]

but I will not answer;

they will seek me early and diligently

 but they will not find me.

 Because they hated knowledge

and

did not

choose

 the reverent and worshipful

fear of the Lord,

 Would accept none of my

counsel,

 and

 despised all my

reproof,

Therefore shall they eat

of the fruit of their own way

and

be satiated with their own devices.

For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them,

 and

 the careless ease

 of [self-confident]

 fools

shall destroy them.

 But whoso hearkens to me

[Wisdom] shall dwell securely

 and

in confident trust and shall be quiet,

without fear or dread of evil.

Proverbs 1:22–33 (AMP)

The Negative Terms!

              Note the negative terms the Lord uses in the above against a declining nation who has turned its back on Him.  I have commented on some these selected terms to a show more robust meaning which could describe America’s and other nations in their present position and plight.

Anguish…..a nation deeply distressed, in pain physically, domestically, spiritually, suffering because of sin, transgression, iniquity, mentally not knowing where to turn, unable to find the right course, lost is its own created darkness of wickedness.

Backsliding…..a nation leaving the righteous path, abandoning what is Godly, noble, decent, holy, respectful, orderly, dwelling in sin and loving it, no fear of the Lord.

Calamity…..a nation experiencing weather disasters, war, social dysfunction, ruin, divine judgment as result of sin, God’s displeasures with individuals or nations, God’s allowed judgment for sin.

Council….a nation’s two types of council – false and true. Divine council or guidance and direction from the Lord or false council man’s guidance and council which often run counter to divine council.  Man refuses divine council and chooses to listen to false council.

Careless ease…..a nation of individuals and nations seeking their own way without God, slackness in morals and social decorum’s, focus on what pleases the flesh, rashness in decision making, rejection of truth. 

Distress…a nation experiencing anxiety, worry, illness, unable to think straight, misguided in dealing with life’s hardships and troubles, loss of direction.

Fear of the Lord…..a nation’s loss of deep respect and awe of the Lord for His righteousness and holiness, no expression of humility toward Him, not obeying His Word and commands, not trusting in His sovereign power and t authority, not loving Him and others.

Fools…..a nation of people who possess little to no concern or respect for the Lord and His commands and ways, not choosing to walk the ways of the world, tend to be workers of iniquity and evil, not teachable to the things of God.

Fruit of their own way…..a nation of fools becoming filled with their own lusts and fleshly desires and appetites, seekers of the things of the world, filled with wants and ambitions apart from God’s providence.

Panic…..a nation reaching a point of desperation and not knowing what to do.

Repent….a nation needing to turn around from doing what offends God and others. God calls to turn away from sin and walk righteously before Him. This is the key to returning to the Lord.

Reproof…..a nation refusing or ignoring to hear the disapproval of God for its waywardness from Him.

Scoffers…a nation of people who mock, ridicule, disrespect, and disdain the lows and principles of Almighty God.

Simple ones…..a nation of fools, open to good and evil, undiscerning between good and evil, accept evil for good and good for evil.

Wisdom…...a nation void of the wisdom of God.

Final Word

What you read here is not easy to write, read and digest.  But when one spends time in God’s Word, it becomes very clear that God is sovereign in all things and calls to nations and people in those nations to walk according to what He has communicated in His written Word.  The need for 2 Chronicles 7:14 is the only answer as I noted in the previous posted oracle “Mindset” for any nation to come to repentance and forego the jugment of God.

 To turn away from Him can be fatal. But for those who seek Him and His counsel, they “shall dwell securely and in confident trust shall be quiet, without fear or dread of evil”. So be it in the name of your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

Prophetic Word!

I will share this prophetic concerning the Lord's call to America..

God’s Call to America!

I was asleep for no more than an hour when I began to hear the Lord speak to me concerning America.  His first few words to me were, “I am calling America, I am calling America to a position of repentance before Me.”

As soon as I heard these words in my sleep state, I immediately knew that the Lord was speaking to me.  I woke up and came into my office, grabbed a pen and a legal pad, and begin scribing what He was saying to me. 

One page became two, and then two pages three, and then three pages four, and so on until the flow of His word stopped.  After I had handwritten His word, I turned on my computer and recorded His word electronically which is what you are reading.

Dear Saint, I do not know why He chose me to be a vessel of His sharing His intimate word with the brethren.  But I give you these words in hopes that  the Holy Spirit will speak to you and your part as you read and seek Him regarding this word about America.

I am calling America.

I am calling American to

a position of

 repentance before Me.

I am calling America to

rediscover its purpose –

to be a light –

a beacon of light

 of hope and strength

 in a world full of

darkness and gloom.

America, America,

awake from your stupor of sin

and transgression,

and rediscover your

destiny as only I, the One

and

only true God

intended it to be.

You are to be

a salt nation

 for My gospel

and

 a light nation of My truth.

You were birthed

by My hand

 for this purpose –

to carry My will and My ways

 to all the nations

 of the earth.

You were planted

with

special divine

care as a light on a hill

 and

 a lighthouse in the harbor

 to shine My

gospel light

 to guide the people’s

of the earth

from their own kingdoms

to

 My eternal kingdom.

But your salt as grown saltless

and

your light has grown dim

 as you have chosen other

paths to seek

 and walk on.

But, “I AM,” is returning to you –

calling you again

to forsake

your self-interests

 and

 your profaning ways

 and

come back to the

 God of your Fathers.

Your destiny of renewal

awaits as once again I desire

to bring national salvation

to America.

I am calling America 

to a path of repentance

 and

to a position of

humility before me.

I am calling America

to leave its high perch

of wealth seeking

 and

 luxury living

 and self-centeredness

 and

 bow itself to the God of

 Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

and

 the God of the Prophets;

To the God of awesome works –

the eternal God who knows

 no beginning or ending –

the God of America 

who stands

 ready to deliver

American from its

position of alienation

 and

 estrangement from Me.

Come, America,

let us reason together –

You know the right way,

 for I have taught you

from the beginning.

 You have My light

and

 My word.

 I call you to listen and heed

what you know from

what I have revealed to you.

You are without excuse.

America you are in the

 valley of decision

with darkness on the left

and light on the right.

  The enemy has made the

darkness appear as a false

light leading many down

 a path

of destruction.

Many are perishing

 because they do not follow

the true light.

America has far too long

 chose the wrong path

 and

 neglected the Light-path

that it once was

called to walk on.

I am calling

America

 to once again,

turn from it wicked ways,

and

 travel the path of

 righteousness,

justice,

 and

pursuit of the

 God of your Fathers.

America, I would say to you,

 that your restoration

 of your identity

as a salt and light nation

awaits your decision.

You can either turn to the Light,

or remain in darkness.

My call

is to the leaders

of the nation

 as well as the people

of the nation.

Come back America to Me,

for I once again

 I want to place

you as the forefront

of all the nations

on the earth

for the completion

 of your destiny

awaits you
