Greetings and welcome to all of you who are joining me with this edition of Faith to Live
By.
I'm the host of this weekly podcast where I seek to help us explore current events from
a biblical and prophetic perspective so we, as God's children, can know how He wants us
to respond.
We have been forewarned repeatedly from God through His prophets that the month of October
2024 would be unlike any other with all manner of events and surprises jolting us into a
final opportunity to wake up and see the extent of evil and corruption that has been allowed
to advance in our lifetimes, in our respective nations.
One of the greatest tragedies is what the people who were in the path of Hurricane Helene
continue to suffer.
The loss of all material possessions, heirlooms, and other sentimental items is bad enough.
The tremendous loss of life is unimaginable.
But the betrayal by our own government is incomprehensible.
Fearing the eyewitness accounts of how people are being forced to live, for lack of food,
water, and power, resulting in the likelihood of health complications and more death in
the month's ahead, are exceedingly heartbreaking.
Most definitely, our helping to fund humanitarian relief efforts is needed.
We are being warned, however, not to give to the Red Cross and other organizations known
for disaster fraud.
I've personally given through Dutch Sheets Hurricane Relief Fund and I also trust Samaritan's
Purse.
And today I found another way that we can provide support with downloadable and printable spiritual
encouragement provided through BeyondDisaster.Bible, which is a joint effort of the Trauma Healing
Institute and the American Bible Society.
They have materials for survivors, churches, youth, and first responders who have suffered
any type of disaster.
The Bible's Hurricane Helene victims had were lost in the flood.
This is one additional way we can help them find their emotional and spiritual center
in these exceedingly difficult times.
Please use the links in the show notes to do what you can.
And also, just so you know, I'm not affiliated with Dutch Sheets Ministry, Samaritan's Purse,
or the Trauma Healing Institute, or the American Bible Society.
I simply know of and trust these organizations and can recommend them as resources you may
want to avail.
We have witnessed repeated, unthinkable evil, especially since 2020, but the fact that evil
has advanced to the level it has is a matter we, as God's people, must own.
I have said many times the reason the world is in the mess it's in today is because God's
people, worldwide, have failed to be the salt and light.
We have failed to live according to the instructions of God.
We have failed to be the victorious influence over evil by the authority of Jesus Christ
and the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit, which we uniquely possess in this New Testament
era.
Imagine what it must be like for the Father and the Son and Holy Spirit to observe His
own children, for whom He has gone to unimaginable lengths to redeem and position for victory,
to see us rejecting everything God wants us to have.
Even though these years, since 2020, have been the most difficult consecutive years,
we must also recognize they have been years of extreme grace, where God is allowing each
one of us to see the truth about our world and ourselves and give us opportunity to repent
so that we can avoid the fullness of the ramifications we deserve.
We have come to a point of critical mass for this time in the history of the world.
Critical mass is the minimum amount of something required to start or maintain any project
or venture.
Any movement or venture has to reach critical mass to carry on and succeed.
After four long years since 2020, thanks to God's intervention and exposure of all manner
of evil and corruption, and just before the most important election in the history of
the United States, the movement for truth and righteous government has reached critical
mass, where the success for God's truth to prevail is actually within our reach.
And we, each one do with truth, at this point in time, will determine the trajectory for
the future of the world.
And that's not an overstatement.
Depending on how each one of us respond to events immediately before us, we'll determine
our individual future and the future of the nations of the world.
I'm grateful to have Amanda Grayson as my guest today and next week.
I actually interviewed her on October 10th, and I must say, every day since then, Amanda
has been exceedingly busy with downloads from the Lord to help us understand the critical
importance of these days following Yom Kippur, also known as the Day of Atonement, which began
the eve of October 11th and ran through the eve of October 12th.
That was the day when God's heavenly court handed down verdicts that will become visibly
demonstrated in the weeks ahead.
As of the time of this episode, initially posting, October is only halfway through.
You can expect and must be prepared for what is yet to unfold.
I will share the first part of my interview with Amanda now and then come back to offer
you some specific considerations so you can endure what lies ahead, confident you are
positioned in God's protection and provision.
Here's my interview with Amanda Grace, Part 1.
Amanda Grace, once again, I get to have you on our podcast at such a critical time, I
think in all of the history of the world.
The Lord has been exposing so much evil and corruption wherever it exists, and we know
He's not doing this for sensationalism.
He's doing it so He can judge it and bring justice.
With all of that in mind and with my desire to really help my audience discover and live
in life-giving truth, not fear, that's from the enemy, but the truth of God and His promises,
what would you like to share with my audience today?
Well we've got quite a bit we can share.
I'm just going to say what I always say first and we'll be off and running here with the
Lord today.
So 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 Jesus'
name.
Father, allow us the humble privilege of being vessels of your power.
Thank you, Lord.
Amen.
Well, what was interesting about what you said with the Lord bringing times of judgment,
right, is that people sometimes think God is delaying a victory and He's really not delaying
the victory.
Sometimes He's allowing the charges to mount.
And I'll give you a very good example of this in Scripture.
For Samuel 17, 45 through 50, right, it starts really at verse 38 around, but when David comes
and he's got to face Goliath, and by this time David shows up as a young shepherd boy,
Goliath has been blaspheming God's name for 40 days.
The God of heaven, creator of all things.
He has allowed Goliath to do this and without immediately dealing with Goliath.
And the reason why is because he was allowing the charges to mount against Goliath and the
Philistines in his court to bring down a more severe judgment that then would in turn bring
a very great victory for Israel.
Because Saul at that point, you know, he was for show.
Saul, you know, was not willing to fight Goliath.
He was an old wineskin.
In fact, he tried to put his armor on David and it didn't fit because you can't put new
wine in an old wineskin because it'll burst and that was the old wineskin.
And that old wineskin could not fight Goliath with the strategy God wanted at foot, which
was on the grounds of covenant.
And in verse 45, and this was the verse, this was the verses that the Lord told me to give
to the Trump family the first the night of prayer, July 7th, 2024.
You come to me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord
of hosts, the God of the army of Israel whom you have taunted.
And so, you know, what that translates to is you come at me with physical weapons to
kill me, but I come to you on the Lord's official covenant business in which you have violated.
That's what that verse translates to.
And once that was said, the reason David came is because the verdict came down.
The verdict came down for now it was time for Goliath's fall.
And so the Lord brings the verdict through a young brazen shepherd boy who understands
covenant better than the king of Israel at the time, Saul, and he understood what it
meant to attack that covenant and to taunt Almighty God and to blaspheme him and Israel's
army.
He knew what that meant.
It was a very serious charge.
And so a shepherd boy comes and God sets Goliath up because Goliath laughs at this.
He doesn't realize that his day of judgment has come because he is not seeing past the
fact this is a young shepherd boy into the realm of the spirit, the anointing that David
carries even at that age.
So he's not looking into that.
He's looking at him as a young, foolish shepherd boy that he's going to kill and be done with.
And instead, God sets him up for a great fall before his entire army that ended up scattering
the Philistines.
By the way, if any of you viewers didn't know, Palestine means Philistine.
So it's connected.
And so we have to understand that when God delays, it's not always a denial.
It's allowing a charge to mount in his courts to actually bring down the end of something.
Had he immediately dealt with Goliath, Goliath may have gotten a slap on the hand and gone
on his way and caused more problems for Israel later on.
So this is what we see happening in the nation right now.
The Lord is allowing the charges to mount in his courts against the leaders of this nation,
against the leaders of New York State, against leaders in other states.
These charges have mounted.
And now during this time that has happened of Russia, Shana, 10 days of all Yom Kippur,
we saw the charges begin to come down now.
The charges turn into judgments that have begun to come down now into the natural.
And we see what's happening in New York City right now.
We see what's happening with Mayor Adams with his second in command stepping down.
This is going all the way to Albany and the Attorney General of New York.
This is going all the way up the line to the governor's seat, to the Attorney General.
God has given them time.
He's allowed the charges to mount.
They didn't turn.
And now we're seeing that during a very serious time because yes, yes, Russia, Shana, 10 days
of all Yom Kippur, the Jews believe when Russia, Shana finishes and the 10 days of all begin,
a trial happens in God's court in heaven and the verdict comes down on Yom Kippur, the
day of atonement.
And so interestingly enough, after that, right, after that is a very delicate time because
if the if the verdicts come down on Yom Kippur, that means they have to be carried out the
rest of the year.
And that is a very delicate time.
Absolutely.
For the sake of the audience, Yom Kippur was the 12th basically.
Yes, it was 11 to the 12th.
So we're at a time right now where we need to really be observing what God is doing that
we would see the judgment and the justice that he is administrating.
Yes, exactly.
And be watchman right now.
We have to be watchman because we as children of the Most High God have been gifted abilities
to be able to some of us because we all have different gifts to see what's coming before
it happens.
And those watchmen have to get up on the wall right now and start shouting and sounding
the alarm about it because it's coming.
You know, people want to argue whether these hurricanes were man made or not, whether they
were man made or not, they still came.
That's the problem.
They're still coming, right?
Yes, the source of it may be different depending on what happened.
But if we remember in Luke chapter eight, just because Jesus was in the boat with the disciples
doesn't mean the storm never came.
The storm still came.
The enemy sent an enormous storm that would be equivalent to the winds of a hurricane at
Jesus to prevent him from getting to Gateron.
So Jesus being in the boat didn't stop the storm from coming.
So when the storm came, the power and authority he had been given, he rebuked it.
And you know what he went after first?
He went after the wind.
He went after the source because the waves and the disciples panicking were all a result
of the wind.
The wind was the source of the storm.
You go after the source, you go after that spirit first, you go after the root of it
because then everything else then will come.
Everything else will come from there.
You deal with the root, everything else pipes down.
And so we saw that in Luke chapter eight.
And so storms come when areas are about to get freed.
Now that makes me think of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton.
Yes.
Now Hurricane Helene, I personally was taken off guard and I was very concerned for the
people and the damage and the destruction.
And of course we've learned a whole lot since and there's a lot more yet to be learned about
what really took place with Hurricane Helene.
Now with Hurricane Milton being on the heels of Helene, there was a lot of Christians who
were praying down that hurricane.
And I know that on Tuesday before it ever hit, it was up to a category five.
It went down to a four.
And then on Wednesday it went back up to a category five.
But now I'm hearing it went down to a two and to a one.
And I believe with all my heart that's because Christians were united in praying against this
thing.
We're finally learning how to wield the weapons of warfare we have.
Yes, and we did the same thing with Milton.
You did with your audience.
Yes, we did with our audience.
And I said we need to come into agreement right now because the power that raised Christ
from the dead dwells within us and we need to use that power right now and utilize it.
And so we did, we all came together and we all prayed and rebuked and commanded it to
weaken in the name of Jesus Christ and the source of it to lose its power and all of
this well by morning, Milton ended up hitting as a three.
And then by morning it was a one.
Praise God.
So praise the Lord for that because the effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth
much.
And so that's what we need to do right now.
You know, the Lord has given us authority.
He has given us power to trample on serpents and scorpions against all the power of the
enemy so nothing shall be any means hurt us.
We need to use it.
He's given it to us.
Yes, we could petition God's throne for certain things.
Yes, we could do that.
But he's given us power and authority that we need to utilize as believers in this hour
because you see all of this happening because there's a great war in the heavenlies happening
for the United States of America.
And this is a spiritual war first with natural consequences.
You're seeing these natural consequences and they're so large because there is a battle
for the deliverance of this nation, just like that large storm that came at them in Luke
chapter eight, the enemy sent that storm.
He sent that storm to stop Jesus from getting to Gadarán because he knew once that man
that was demon possessed in the tombs was freed, he was going to evangelize the entire
city, that city was going to get freed.
Those territorial spirits were going to be driven out because they asked to be driven
into the pigs and then the pigs drowned themselves and they didn't have a host and they were
driven out of the area and that whole area was delivered.
So when the enemy knows that anointed people are sent by God to deliver an area, he is
going to throw everything he can to try to stop that mission from being completed.
This is why you saw these storms come, one on the heels of Rosh Hashanah, the other during
the 10 days of all, right before Yom Kippur.
There's no coincidence with that because the enemy even knows the day of atonement judgments
come down.
So this is why you saw these storms come the way they did.
I've said many times to my audience that this election, 2024 election, although God has
said he does not need an election to save a country.
No, he doesn't.
But we are at a time that is the most pivotal for the United States of America.
That's part of why things have intensified.
Now a parallel is the nation of Israel.
And I believe in the same way that our government has been infiltrated with people who want
to see a one world government.
The same has happened with the government of Israel.
Can you address anything about that?
I can address that.
I actually, I have to see where it is.
I can look for it really fast after I get to this, but I'm going to read to you something,
okay?
Last year when Israel was attacked, I was up on a high place.
I was up on Windham Mountain in New York, very interesting place.
I stay at a place.
The owners love the Lord.
The presence of the Lord is on that property.
You can feel it.
And I was there when this attack happened.
Now the attack actually happened on October 7th.
October 7th, 2023, it happened.
So then we're going to get to judges 10, 7 though.
That's where I'm going out with this, but okay.
So this year, the Lord sends me back.
Chris's birthday is October 6th.
He wants to go to Windham.
The Lord sends me back to a high place to be up there when October 7th, the one year
anniversary occurs.
So the Lord took me to judges chapter 10, verse seven, initially 10, 7 October 7th,
10, 7, and he takes me then eight through nine.
And in judges 10, 7, it says, so the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel and
he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, which is Palestine means Philistine and the
Ammonites and they oppressed and crushed Israel that year.
Now this is interesting because this is 10, 7, and that's the date of the attack.
And then it goes on, which is fascinating.
Judges 10, 8 through 9 for 18 years, they oppressed all the Israelites who were beyond
the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is Gilead.
Now isn't that interesting that Gilead is mentioned in this because that was the drug
company that was putting out solutions to C19 that was actually more oppressive of people
than it was helping deliver people.
So I just found that very interesting.
Verse nine, the Ammonites crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin and the house
of Ephraim so that Israel was greatly distressed.
Now says this happened for 18 years.
If you take away 18 years from the year 2024, you get 2006.
In 2006, the Lebanon war happened that was precipitated by Hezbollah, who did a cross
border raid and they fired rockets to distract them so they can do an anti-tank missile attack
on Israel's side.
And they ended up breaking through on Israel's side and the ambush left three soldiers dead.
What happened just now in Israel?
They invaded Lebanon.
They crossed the border and they invaded Lebanon.
So this is all connected to Judges chapters 10 verses seven through nine, especially what
we see happening because things work in cycles.
The enemy tries to work in cycles because he thrives in cycles.
This is why it's so important for all of you, break your cycles, break your family cycles,
break them.
You want deliverance, you want to see provision, you want to see the floodgates open, break
those cycles because as long as the enemy can stay in that cycle, he can keep you oppressed.
People did this also in Judges seven.
So we see it in Judges seven, Judges 10, and I believe Judges 13, where they stray from
the Lord and then they have to cry out to God because they're attacked by their regional
enemies and then they come back to the Lord and the Lord delivers them.
And you see this cycle back and forth with Israel.
Interestingly enough, before this attack happened in Israel in 2023, that June they had one
of the biggest gay pride celebrations they've ever had.
That's right, they did.
I'd forgotten about that.
They did.
And so it's interesting because every time Israel strays into areas that are blasphemous
to God or forsakes God for idols, you see their regional enemies, a door is open to attack
them.
And so there are people in the cabinet, not only in the cabinet, but within the Israeli
government that have sold out their own people.
They have sold out their own people for Israel's destruction.
And while we're talking, I'm going to find that word because that word is pretty powerful.
This was from September 23rd, 2024.
So about a little over a week before Rosh Hashanah.
And there was a word from the Lord I gave.
And in that word it says, and says the spirit of the Lord this day, what they plot around
the time of October.
Now this has a double meaning, phase two of the red flood says the Lord.
Now that has a double meaning for us here and Israel.
Phase two of the red flood, because if you look at the states getting flooded right now
and hit, they're all states that would vote red.
Yes, you're absolutely right.
Okay.
So October phase two of the red flood says the Lord.
So it's for Israel and America, I believe.
And then he says in capitals, Israel, be sober minded and vigilant for those within your
cabinets have given information to proxies.
A multi-city attack has been plotted and other countries have put money into their pot beyond
Iran and Russia.
The forked tongue dragon is out to hunt says the Lord fire and smoke.
Jerusalem says the Lord Jerusalem.
Pray my children for Jerusalem.
That is the honey pot and the purse prize and they plot greater around October.
Just watch says the Lord.
All right.
Specifically, the Lord used the word October.
Are you thinking that means within the 10 days of all?
Yeah, even Yankepur just like that time.
Yeah, around that time.
That's why he says around the time of October, right?
Because it could be a week after the 10 days of all, but it's going to be around that time.
Okay.
Now the forked tongue dragon, is that China?
You know, that's interesting because you know the forked tongue dragon, biblically speaking,
was Marduk.
The Babylonians worship Marduk.
The Babylonians were in Persia as well as I think it stretched out their kingdom, you
know, into the area perhaps where China was.
But this is the year of the dragon in China.
So that could mean two nations.
That could have to do with China and it could have to do with Iran because Iran is plotting
an even greater attack against Israel.
Don't kid yourselves.
In the news, we've also seen that Iran has done a lot to interfere with our elections
and to even plot an assassination on Donald Trump.
You know why?
Because they know our leadership is weak and our leadership on 9-11 handed them $6 billion
that they then have used to attack our allies.
So I'm trying to get to this one word because something happened that was very significant.
Here it is.
So on August 29th, 2024, I gave a word from the Lord.
In that word, it says, around the time of the High Holy Days, phenomenons in the sky,
which we had one of the biggest solar flares to ever happen during, I believe, around the
time of Rosh Hashanah, it happened.
You can look it up.
That did happen and they said Earth was in the line of fire of it.
They had some a little concerned, I guess, about it.
Mountains in the sky and a sifting for they must sift through now, says the Lord.
For what the wicked have planned with those submitted to do terror, they have planned
for around a month from the elections, says the Lord.
Pray now, my children, that this is thwarted for this is meant to stop the process and
declare emergencies.
So that's the word.
Now I'm going to give you the news article so you can look it up because I want to make
sure to give you the accurate information.
Okay.
So it was on October 7th, the arrest happened.
Afghan man arrested an alleged US Election Day attack plot.
The US Department of Justice has arrested a man who allegedly planned an attack on Election
Day in the name of the Islamic State group.
Really, he's connected to ISIS.
ISIS motivated him to do this and he stockpiled firearms.
He liquidated assets.
He was doing all sorts of things.
This Afghani man.
Now that word said a month before the election, correct?
They arrested this man for this plot, October 7th, one month before the election.
Right.
And on the unobstructed date of the war in Israel.
Yes.
So they arrested him on that date.
And that word of the Lord said from August 29th, about a month before the election.
And that's when they happened to uncover this terror plot and arrest him.
So A, praise God for accuracy because that was back in August that that word was given.
And it also speaks to prayer, the power of prayer again.
Like we were talking about with the hurricane.
God said, my children pray.
So he was telling us to pray in advance and look at the power of prayer.
We need to not underestimate the power of prayer.
Prayer is a weapon.
I don't think people realize that.
The weapons of warfare and a carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down and destruction
of strongholds.
What's a hurricane?
It's a stronghold.
It's a force.
The Lord says that those weapons of our warfare that are not carnal prayer is one of them.
You know, pulls down those strongholds.
We have to use our spiritual weapons.
Too many churches have made their sheep, put them down and they have left them vulnerable
to be ravaged by the wolves and the serpents that the church have welcomed in in the name
of tolerance.
Jesus didn't tolerate the Pharisees.
He dealt with them.
There's a big difference.
He didn't let them into ravage his disciples with their, you know, legalistic, holier than
now image when in the dark they were doing terrible things.
You ever wonder how they called Mary Magdalene and go caught in adultery?
You ever wonder how they caught her?
In the act, the Bible says, unless one of them was there.
Yeah.
So they were not clean.
That's why he called them whitewash tombs.
They were, they were spiritually dead.
You know, they were compromised.
They were in the back pocket of Rome and too many churches have done this now.
And this is why you have seen them go silent.
And a lot of churches that I hate to say this took these PPP loans from the government have
gone silent.
Right.
So I give all of this just to give everybody a history lesson here.
So we, so we understand in the founding of our country, in the declaration of independence,
there is a prayer and an appeal to almighty God.
And when the first 13 colonies were formed, all 13 of them required a declaration of faith
to serve in government.
12 Protestant, one Catholic.
So 12 of the colonies were Protestant.
One was Catholic.
All 13 of them required a declaration of faith.
The New York assembly in the 1800s declared, we are a Christian nation.
Though we let freedom of religion and people coming to worship, we are a Christian nation.
And we are.
And that covenant is founded upon that.
And that's the history of this country.
So when the church wants to say we shouldn't get involved, when the government wants to,
you know, say, oh, you know, Christians shouldn't serve or we don't believe this.
Excuse me.
That's how the 13 colonies started out.
And they required that declaration of faith.
Separation of church and state has nothing to do with speaking out politically.
It means there shall be no state sponsored religion.
That's a big difference.
But the state don't mind sponsoring BLM, PLO, transgenderism, wokeism and every other idolatrous,
you know, idolatrous secular humanism religion that is out there.
So we have to understand as the church, we are meant to stand.
We are meant to stand in the gap.
We are meant to.
We as the shepherds, right?
There's a big difference between shepherds and showmen.
The Lord is dropping that plumb line.
One of the greatest we have ever seen, one of the most intense we have ever seen.
We are seeing it now because there is a huge difference.
The shepherd will get in front of their flock and will defend.
The shepherd doesn't open up the gate and let snakes and wolves in to compromise their
flock.
And now half the church has done that.
Well, we don't want to get involved, we're watering down sermons, we've stripped the
people of the armor of God, we've stripped them of biblically knowing, you know, who
they are in Christ and using the authority of the believer to water it down to make it
good motivational messages.
If you want to go to have motivational message, please go seek out Tony Robbins.
He gives them all the time.
That's what you want.
Right, right.
But the church is meant for the sick to get well.
It is not meant to make the sick sicker to put sin in an incubator and grow it.
It's not meant for those things.
And that's partially what's happened.
You know what?
I can actually speak to that.
And I got very angry when I saw this article.
It was just released on October 7th, 2024 by the George Barnard, who is the director of
Barnard Research Group.
And it said that 104 million people of faith, including 32 million Christian regular church
goers are projected to abstain from voting in November.
I'd like to speak to those 104 million people.
You are not doing your God given duty if you don't vote in the Declaration of Independence.
We are given a God given duty as a Christian nation founded upon Judeo-Christian values
to vote.
And when you do not want to do your God given privilege and duty to vote, you have zip zero
right to complain about anything going on.
Doesn't that also address what you were just saying about the pastors not addressing the
real world issues being performers instead of pastors?
Well, they are doing that and they're performing like circus elephants in front of their congregation
all because they're paying to see a show.
There's a big difference between seeing a show and getting fed.
And you could get fed in a way to a degree that keeps your attention.
But it's meant to get fed.
And for the people that are abstaining and saying, I don't want to vote, you have no
right to complain about anything going on in this country.
You have no right to complain about what they're doing to you or your children.
You have no right because you don't want to participate.
And if you don't want to participate, you are part of the problem, not the solution
because silence in the face of evil is still evil.
According to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, prophet of the Lord, who saw what was happening with
the church before the Nazi regime rose, he saw what was happening.
He saw the complacency in the church and he created a document called the Confessing
Church.
There were 18,000 Protestant pastors at the time in Germany.
Only three of the 18,000 signed that document.
Another 3,000 pastors sided with Hitler and the Nazi regime and decided to support them
as something good and wonderful as we see some of the pastors out there doing today
with those that want to murder children, with those that want to push transgenderism, with
those that want to push dark agendas, you see them siding with that.
And then you have 12,000 that were left.
And you know what those 12,000 did?
The same thing these 104 million people are doing.
We don't want to get involved.
This isn't our fight.
We're not getting involved.
We just want to play church.
And you know what happened?
Hitler came to power because had 3,000 more pastors signed that Confessing Church document,
Hitler would have never come to power.
It would have never happened.
That's the kind of power the church has.
And the church said, we're not getting involved.
We're abstaining.
This isn't our fight.
And guess what?
The church suffered under the Nazi regime and the Jews suffered horrifically under the
Nazi regime.
So when you say you're not getting involved, then you have no right to be upset if things
happen to you or your children because you decided not to get involved.
With what we have it in this nature right now, with the wickedness we have coming through
the southern border, you have no right to get upset if that wickedness hits your front
door then.
If you say you don't want to be involved.
This is our God given right to vote.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are all connected to freedom.
Freedom is freedom with responsibility.
That responsibility is for us to vote.
That responsibility is for us to stand on what God has given us, His word, to stand on His
promises, to stand on that covenant, to stand.
That's what we've been given a duty as soldiers in the armies of the living God and servants
of the Most High God to do.
And the problem is people have been taught spiritually to be lazy.
Right.
Very lazy.
They have dumbed you down.
So you are no longer a threat to the kingdom of darkness or his interests.
And you know what the Lord does with those?
They're called Lukewarm and he spits them out of his mouth.
He would rather have you be hotter cold than be Lukewarm.
And that gets back to what you said about prayer being a weapon and how we are being
told God is revealing the importance of us using the spiritual weapons that we have now
in this hour and a natural weapon as you're pointing out, a privilege to get to vote in
this upcoming election.
And I'm with you.
I'd like to talk to that 104 million people as well.
Amanda, this is going to broadcast on October 23rd.
And I think you've got a couple of events that people should know about.
Yes.
I have a reawaken America that is coming up.
And then October 26th, I'm going to be in East Palestine, Ohio.
Believe members of the Trump family are going to be there as well for this event.
And then we'll announce for November.
We're solidifying November right now.
Okay.
And I also learned that you've got a special prayer time of prayer for Donald Trump and
his family.
Yes.
So October 27th, mark your calendars night of prayer for the nation and the Trump family.
Members of the Trump family will be joining us.
We are solidifying the lineup right now.
We have some incredible people coming on on this one to just come together as soldiers
in the army of the living God and to pray.
This is the most crucial night of prayer.
It is right before the election.
So come prepared.
Pray for us as we go into this because this is, you know, it can get heavy.
So pray for us.
But October 27th, starting at 5pm Eastern Standard Time, night of prayer for the nation
and the Trump family on Ark of Grace Ministries.
All right.
And so it's arkagrapesministries.com is where they would find the event.
It would go to arkofgrace.org.
And there is a tab you click on.
Okay, so you go to the media tab and you click on ways to connect and watch.
And you'll see YouTube, Facebook, rumble.
You'll see Instagram, Twitter, Roku, and you can connect to any one of those.
Okay.
You know, we've talked about a few things here in our time together today.
And with that, I'm just going to turn it over to you and ask you to close us out in prayer
or with a word of encouragement, whatever the Lord lays on your heart.
Let me see, Lord, what do you want me to do, Lord?
Okay.
Pray.
Okay.
Father God, in the precious name of your son, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, Hamashiach, Lord,
we come before you, Father, today.
Father, we praise you for this time, Lord.
We praise you, you are Almighty God, you are high and lifted up for above every power,
principality, and might.
We humble ourselves before you, we ask you to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us of
all unrighteousness, Father.
Father, forgive us of every way we've sinned and fallen short, Lord.
We praise you.
Your mercies are new every single day.
Lord, and we acknowledge you, centrist on Jesus Christ to the earth, and the word became
flesh and dwelt among us.
He was the Passover lamb and the sacrifice for our sins.
He willingly died at Calvary.
He purchased us by the shedding of his own blood.
He redeemed us.
He reconciled us back to you.
He miraculously rose again in three days.
He ascended back into heaven.
He took his rightful place at the right hand of the Father.
He is the King of kings, the Lord of lords.
He is the name above all names, where he rules and reigns forevermore.
He is our advocate without ceasing before your throne, and we honor that before you
this day.
Father, we just ask in the name of Jesus Christ in this hour, Father God.
Lord, that you would loose, send, and dispatch your holy angels of all offices, rankings,
and divisions, Lord, to protect your children, Father God, to surround and protect them,
Father God, in areas of the nation as well that have been ravaged right now, Father God.
Father, we praise you, Lord, that not all things are good, but you work all things together
for good for those who love God and are called according to his purpose.
And we thank you for the miracles that are going to come out of those areas.
Father, we praise you, Lord, right now, Father God, that you are the Alpha and Omega, the
beginning and the ending, the first and the last, that you see far beyond what we can
see.
And we praise you, Lord, you are leading us through this valley of decision right now,
Father God.
You are leading us through this valley of dry bones, Father.
Lord, we praise you that a Lazarus moment is coming to America, Father God.
Lord, we praise you that when Jesus went to the tomb for Lazarus and he said, roll away
the stone.
And they said he's been dead four days because they believed that the soul left the body
on the fourth day, that he said, roll away the stone anyway.
And they rolled away the stone because the two sisters said, Lord, had you been here,
my brother would not have died and he looked at her and he said, I am the resurrection.
And he looked into that cold, dark doom and he said, Lazarus, come out.
And Lazarus came out to everyone's astonishment, Lord, in his grave clothes and Jesus looked
at them and said, untie him and let him go.
Because even though he was out, he was still in his grave clothes.
The grave still had him.
He said, untie him and let him go.
Father, we praise you that that moment is coming to the United States of America, Father
God, that they are the tomb of Sodom.
They have tried to place it in and now put the stone over, Father God, that the United
States, the America, Lord, the nation you have a covenant with is going to be called
forth out of that cold, dark tomb in its grave clothes, Father.
Lord, and your voice is going to come forth and say, untie America and let her go.
And we praise you, Father God, for that we praise you.
This moment is coming, Father God.
Lord, we see the disaster.
We see the shaking right now happening, Father God, but we also know you have given unto
us authority under heaven to trample upon serpents and scorpions and against all the
power of the enemy.
So nothing shall by any means hurt us.
Father, help us to use that authority in this hour.
Father, help us to use prayer as a weapon and the shield of faith up the armor of God
on Father.
Lord, in Jesus' name, help us to stand up right now.
Buck up, Father God.
Stand in the boldness of the Lord, Father God.
Stand in the boldness that David did facing Goliath, Father God.
Lord, we thank you for that boldness in this hour.
We thank you for the wisdom and the strategy and the counsel, Father God, being poured
into your people.
Father, I am asking you, you heal your people and you give them the strategies to stay well,
because part of Satan's strategy has been to make the church sick and to make them sick
through different means, the people.
And Father, I am asking you, Lord, to help people become disciplined in this hour, in
their walk, in their health, in their minds, in your word, help them to become disciplined
in an hour of lawlessness and chaos, Father God, and enabling, enabling sin to just grow
into a man-eating plant.
Father, we just thank you, Lord, that you are sharpening your people, Lord, that you
are readying them for what is coming, Lord, for the intenseness that is coming, Father
God, leading to the election in the end of the year, Lord.
We thank you, Father God, that you are equipping us, that no good thing will you withhold from
those who walk uprightly.
And we thank you, Father God, we are being sharpened in this hour, equipped, Father God,
give us eyes to see and ears to hear what the Holy Spirit, the Rakhakodesh, has to say,
Father God, Lord, we thank you, Lord, that we can call on you and you will answer us
and show us great and mighty things that we know not.
You say, fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God.
Behold, I will strengthen you while I uphold you with my righteous right hand, says the
Lord of hosts.
And we thank you, Lord, in this hour, your children that have been in this nation crying
out for it, humbling themselves, Father God, that that outcry has come before your throne,
Father God, and that you are moved to act in such an hour of destruction, Father God,
it will be an hour of deliverance.
And we thank you for it.
We give you all the glory, honor, and praise today, Father God, let your name be glorified
above all.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray, amen and amen.
Very powerful.
The life felt that.
Amanda, thank you so very much.
I look forward to having you back again in the future, as always.
And I want to just thank you for strengthening the body of Christ and investing so much of
yourself in us that we can rise up to be the people God intends us to be.
Oh, well, glory goes to God.
I appreciate that, Pam.
I really do.
All right.
I'll stop here for now, and we'll pick up at this point for next week.
I appreciate what Amanda brought out, explaining that what seems like delays in God's intervention
is actually His grace and strategy to allow a fullness of sin and evil to play itself
out so God can judge the entirety of the matter.
If He were to make judgment before the fullness of the inequities, sin that had not yet manifest
would remain to cause problems later.
That reminds me of how God instructed His people in the Old Testament to make certain
to completely conquer the surrounding nations that opposed God.
However, reread, they stopped short of completely eradicating their enemy whose influence has
remained on earth to wreak havoc to this very day.
As always, our failure in completely obeying what God instructs results in problems for
us in the future.
The point is, if we do not do what God wants His children to do, especially at this point
in time, we will bring needless suffering and hardships upon ourselves.
The apathy and disengagement we have had in being the salt and light in our respective
countries failing to hold government leadership accountable wherever possible, failing to
stand up for righteousness when it comes to all manner of deviation from God's revealed
standards for life and living in society with one another must never be allowed again.
God is willing to clear out the evil from every aspect of the seven mountains of society
with the expectation that His people will become engaged and step into the positions
He clears.
The seven mountains are religion, government, family, business slash finance, education,
media and arts slash entertainment.
I am asking you to personally seek the Lord to know how you can transition your skills,
education, gifts, talents and passion into areas of society that need reformation.
Yes, the United States is a government that requires citizen involvement as a constitutional
republic that is to be governed for and by the people.
I realize not all world governments allow for such hands-on involvement.
However, the kingdom of God does.
The kingdom of God that is present wherever His people are demands God's people be engaged
and involved in being the influence for truth and righteousness over all sin and evil.
The kingdom of God on earth requires God's people to tap into the victory Christ has
already died to give us in any and every nation where God's people dwell.
Consider what has upset you the most about the wickedness we've been caused to suffer.
Is it how innocent children are being indoctrinated about gender?
Is it how parental rights have been stripped away allowing ill-intended people to persuade
our children against their parents?
Is it how we've been subject to medical mandates of all sorts that have actually been proven
harmful?
Is it how church leadership has succumbed to the demands of government?
Is it how our finances have been manipulated by greedy politicians through taxes and even
the stock market?
Is it how our borders being open have fueled the horrendous activity of human trafficking
and drug cartels?
Is it how the media and movies have intentionally been used to program our cultures?
Whatever has been the most egregious to you is an indicator that God has called and equipped
you to make a kingdom difference in that sphere of influence.
God is willing to clear the mountains of culture to make room for His people to step in and
take back what has been stolen from us.
What is God calling you to do?
Gone are the days of apathy and remaining a spectator.
We are living in the days of accountability.
Yom Kippur was October 12.
God's verdict concerning your individual life and my individual life and concerning
the future of nations has already been made.
He is exceedingly gracious and if we repent and commit to honoring God and doing what
He wants from us before the actual sentence is pronounced, we can escape judgment.
Each and every one of us will stand before God and be required to give an account for
our choices.
We do that each year before God on Yom Kippur the day of Atonement, which is intended by
God to help us advance His kingdom on earth so that when our final day of judgment arrives,
we are fully prepared and ready to receive the rewards He longs to give us.
We are at a time of critical mass, but that doesn't mean our hopes for restoration of
our nations is a done deal.
What makes anything God offers us a done deal is how we respond.
Next week, Amanda Grace will be back as my guest with part two of our interview.
The second half of the interview took a sharp turn which you won't want to miss.
Please be sure to share this episode with friends and family and invite them to participate
with next week's podcast so they too can be in position of God's protection and provision.
As I mentioned, I interviewed Amanda on October 10.
Then on the 11th, the Lord began downloading another word for her.
She jumped on the internet on the 12th to give it out.
He was called Urgent Word from the Lord on Yom Kippur.
It's quite extensive and includes information about judgments and verdicts that we can expect
to see all around the world in the weeks to come.
God cautioned that this very hour is the most treacherous.
He said, and I quote,
Lots have been cast in my courts for the righteous and in the earth for the wicked.
The enemy has one last plan to destroy opponents and their family.
God said, In this time, in this hour, I am weighing the matters of men and nations in
my courts.
I am weighing the matters of governments and leaders of the church in my courts.
For I, the Lord God, Elohim, am the righteous judge.
I sit on the highest throne.
I am your righteousness, and in my courts righteousness is the foundation of my ruling.
I am weighing what wicked men have done and what righteous men have done, and those judgments
will come down at this time.
End quote.
One statement that really stood out to me was when the Lord said,
Judgment and deliverance you shall see in a day.
End quote.
I really want you to hear what the Lord said, so look for the link in the show notes.
Amanda Grace Urgent Word from the Lord on Yom Kippur.
I also want to be sure you know about the last Reawakened America tour stop that will
be held on October 18th and 19th.
You can learn how to attend or join online using the link in the show notes.
At this event there will also be an opportunity to send aid to victims of Hurricane Helene.
Also Clay Clark's America's Faith Leaders event, which I was invited to but I won't
be able to attend, will be October 21st.
Then as you'll learn more about next week, Amanda has a Night of Prayer plan for October
27th, which everyone should join online considering the United States presidential election is
November 5th.
Be sure to check out the show notes to get these important links.
Now, I ask you to listen to my announcements and to take advantage of the many goods and
services I bring you in an effort to at least cover the costs for this podcast.
It may seem far off, but most people make plans for a significant vacation about a year
in advance, so if you haven't already expressed interest in traveling with us in October 2025,
now is the time to do so.
We want to have about 30 people total because this size group works best for the specific
tour I have in mind.
We'll be walking the footsteps of the Apostle Paul.
I'm using the time between now and February 2025 to determine if we have enough interest
and the trend indicates we definitely should.
We have just about 30 people on the list now, but I'd like to have more because when it
comes to the actual day of making a commitment, things could have changed and I want to be
able to have at least 30 actually attend the tour.
So if you think you'd like to be part of the Faith to Live by Christian tour with me in
Greece during October 2025, now is the time to get your name and number in your party
on the list.
There's no obligation at this point.
You're just expressing your interest.
While the specific details are subject to change, as it stands now, the week-long tour
will include four nights at Devani Palace Acropolis Hotel in Athens, which includes breakfast,
one night at Amelia Hotel in Delphi, which includes breakfast, one night at Grand Meteora
Hotel in Kalambaka with breakfast, two nights at Mediterranean Palace Hotel in Thessaloniki,
that includes breakfast, two dinners at local restaurants, tour guide throughout, deluxe
coach throughout, admissions to museums and sites, tips to guides, drivers and restaurants,
and all local taxes.
Estimated cost per person double occupancy room is about $3,000.
Attendees need to arrange their own air travel to and from the Athens International Airport.
To get your name on the list, send an email to faithtilivby at Pamelachristianministries.com
with the word Greece in the subject line.
In the body of the email, provide your name, contact information, and number of people you
expect to be in your party.
This will place your name on the interested in attending list, but does not obligate you
in any way.
It merely assures you have first right of refusal come February 2025 when down payments
are due.
