He Wins!

This past month was our last time to meet in advance of the Presidential elections. I truly expected the evening would be one of serious warfare and declarations of God's Word. Instead, it was an evening of sweet worship and encouragement. But the evening was punctuated with one, bold prophetic utterance which seemed to settle any concerns we may have brought into the evening.

It went something like this: "Do I not hear the cries of My people calling out to Me for a righteous ruler? And you do well to do so, for do I not wish to intervene on your behalf? Have not your prayers and tears been heard in heaven? Indeed, I respond to your cry to me for righteousness. Therefore, I declare victory in this season! Look and you shall see it. It is right before you! I proclaim Myself King over your hearts if you will have Me! Are you not called to be to Me a nation of priests and prophets? Are you not to be to Me a people separated from amongst all the nations of the earth?

"Then I invite you to give your allegiance to Me and Me alone! Have I not demonstrated My devotion to you by My Blood shed to purchase you, My people? Have I not earned your devotion to Me by My sufferings for you and washing your sin from you? I present Myself before you as your King. Choose Me above all else," says the Lord, "Choose Me, for there is no other who will sustain you as I will. There is none who will defeat your enemies before you as will I! I declare My Sovereignty over all the earth. I welcome you into My Kingdom. My Kingdom shall prevail when all others will fall, for I am the King of kings and the Lord of lords and there is none like unto Me. I declare victory and My people who are Mine are with me in this hour!" says the Lord.

What an invitation! What an opportunity! Here we stand in a moment of history in which we determine if we ultimately pledge our allegiance to the flag or to the Lamb? This is not to diminish our dedication to make this free nation all it can be. Rather it is to be certain we do not pin our hopes on it!

This is an hour for extreme intercession for our land. Not since the very founding of this nation has so much been at stake! We stand to lose all the underpinnings this nation was established upon. There is a gross deception blanketing this nation. II Timothy 3:13 is clear, "But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived."

Perhaps you've seen the video the AFA has promoted. It was produced to encourage Catholic voters to take a moral stand in the upcoming elections, but I found very inspiring and extremely well done. To view it, paste the following into your browser:
