I Prayed have prayed
Father God, pour out Your Holy Spirit on us so that Christians turn to You in true repentance. Have mercy on us and help us.
Reading Time: 5 minutes

From about November of 2019, until February of 2020, many were prophesying what 2020 would be like. 90% of the predictions tagged 2020 as a year of amazing prosperity, breakthrough, and revival.

You may remember how—based on a decades-old ‘prophetic word’—national revival was supposed to come on the heels of the Kansas City Chiefs winning the Super Bowl.  Instead of revival, we got a pandemic. Instead of prosperity, we got massive unemployment and the fastest destruction of an economy in history. Instead of a breakthrough, we got a lockdown. Instead of churches thriving, they were totally empty. Instead of righteousness flowing like a river, the worst demonstrations since the 1960s tore our nation apart, after a heinous murder ignited rage, fear, and deep division.

Here is an excerpt from a blog I wrote on November 9th, 2019, entitled THE OUTWARDLY SUCCESSFUL CHURCH ISN’T STOPPING OUR IMPENDING NATIONAL DISASTER: “Why does the American Church think she is successful?  Her outward success hasn’t even tapped the brakes of our impending national disaster.  I wish I could say we had stopped the flood of filth and addiction.  I’d even be happy if I could say we had slowed the flood.  But no, as the flood rises, we take pride in how well we can keep people safe and dry in artificial arks of glass and stainless steel.  We celebrate things that are utterly irrelevant in the disaster that is even now at the door.” You can read the rest of that blog here:

The first cases of coronavirus began only weeks after the Holy Spirit ordered me to predict national disaster. But those who rebuked the church, including myself, were rejected for not joining the chorus with those who were singing the praises of 2020.

Don’t you wish you had heard something from your pulpit that could have warned and prepared you for what we are facing right now? Those voices were drowned out by a spirit in the Body of Christ that—even after all we have been through for 6 months now—still wants to hear a giddy message of false hope.

Jeremiah called out the false prophets who refused to believe Babylon would invade Judah. They were prophesying that Babylon, not Judah, would fall, and in less than two years, but Jeremiah declared that Judah would fall and enter a 70 year-long captivity. That captivity came, and some of those false prophets were taken to Babylon. And you know what?  Fantastically, even in chains, they insisted on saying that it would soon be over. They continued to lie, even in the face of the absolute proof they were liars. . . .

Read Jeremiah 38 and you will see something chilling. There was one clear difference between the true prophet and the false ones: The false prophets never called for repentance. That is how you can tell the real from the false preachers right now—if they are not proclaiming national repentance, run the other way!

I said all that, because once again, I must make a prediction and issue a warning.  Some will be offended by what I am going to say next: The worst part of the storm is almost upon us. In the next few weeks, you will see a tidal wave of rioting, persecution, censorship, and crime. The evil that is going to be spoken and done against Christians, President Trump, the forces of law and order, and any patriot who dares to take a stand for America, will be unlike anything you have seen so far. Hell itself will be unleashed, in order to crush freedom in our nation. . . .

The next few weeks will embody 2 Timothy 3:1-5, “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” . . .

Here is my warning from the Lord: The church must be the first to turn from her wicked ways. The church must preach repentance, the Cross, the Blood and passionately seek a fresh out-pouring of the Holy Spirit. Preachers must cast off all pretense of trying to save their jobs. They must preach with such force that they pierce hearts and drive home the gravity of the situation, and clearly proclaim what the true stakes of this moment are.

Someone asked me if the Lord had shown me that Trump would win a second term. I told them, “No, He has not.” I told them what I am telling you now, that the single greatest threat to Trump’s reelection is the hesitancy of preachers to rally their people to vote. It boggles my mind that this is still possible! But it is symptomatic of the deep deception that characterizes this hour.

Just as dark and impossible as it may seem, just as vile as this moment appears, there is still a miracle waiting in the wings. Our God—our awesome God—our God Who comes out of nowhere, is sending a clear and undeniable signal to a remnant. They have already been tried in the fire, and now they will come forth like gold. Look for nobodies to get battlefield promotions and raise up armies of righteousness.

At this moment Satan is trembling with fear at the thought of their appearing. At this hour the devil shivers before the inevitable return of new lions—warriors with tongues of fire, healing in their hands and irresistible words of Life. They are coming. Oh, yes, they are!

As Nehemiah recalled: “Therefore You delivered them into the hand of their oppressors who oppressed them, but when they cried to You in the time of their distress, You heard from heaven, and according to Your great compassion You gave them deliverers who delivered them from the hand of their oppressors.” (Nehemiah 9:27)

Let the lukewarm believer collapse before God in conviction. Let the hidden warrior take heart that God is about to force the situation in your favor. The difference between true vessels of God and hirelings is about to become extremely clear and undeniable.

I beseech you, before God: heed this warning and believe the promises!

God, I do not know how true these modern “prophecies” are. Too often self-described prophets turn out to be wrong. However, what I ask is this: If this is true, prepare my heart and the hearts of all of Your people, so that we are ready in every way, spiritually, mentally and physically.

Please…

A reply to a friend of mine:

Hi Linda,

I agree with much of what Lisa says but I have a different perspective on what constitutes “our nation.” All countries, including the United States, are kingdoms of the world. They are populated by both believers and unbelievers. Now, think of a photograph of the night side of Earth taken from space. You don’t see borders but you do see lights all over the place, but in varying densities – some areas have many lights, others are more sparse. The lights come and go, so the scene is always in flux, ever-changing. Likewise, believers are all over the world in varying densities, constituting territory of the kingdom of God – our nation.

That is why (when I have a flagpole), I fly a flag for the kingdom of God (our nation), rather than a flag for a kingdom of the world (not our nation):

http://www.kingdomofgodflag.info/index.html

    Keith
    July 10, 2020

    God Himself institutes these worldly kingdoms, and He takes them seriously. You should too.

    Yes, our Heavenly citizenship is the most important and significant, since it is eternal. But, God sets up nations for a reason, and we ought not take our earthly responsibilities lightly. How we vote, how we pray for our nation, how we serve it in various ways, affects our fellow citizens. You don’t vote, and some nut may get in and the people may die. Ask the 73% of NYC voters who did not vote in the last mayoral election. Well, they got DiBlasio. Sure, NYC is worldly and the government there is a temporal authority. But, worldly entities and institutions still have big impacts on peoples’ lives.

    So, while you’re concerning yourself with God’s work on earth and with your fellow Christians around the world, understand that you’re (so far) safe in this magnificent, but albeit, worldly authority, that God instituted. Show your thankfulness for that by voting and praying for the church here, for the lost here, and for the various influencers (pols, journalists and teachers).

      Scott Smith
      July 11, 2020

      “You don’t vote, and some nut may get in and the people may die.” The last time I voted for a Republican or Democratic presidential candidate, my choice unnecessarily invaded Iraq and people died. Lots of people — both American and Iraqi. The Christian population of Iraq was devastated by the resulting social upheaval.

      After living the first 60 years of my life in America, I moved to the country against which we rebelled in 1776. Should I pray for the church here, for the lost here and for the various influencers here? If so, why should my prayers stop at the border?

        Keith
        July 11, 2020

        Voting never guarantees that you will get everything you want. That is naive. But, it increases your odds. Why would anyone shun an increase in the odds in their favor?

        Not voting got NYC DiBlasio (73% did not come out to vote last mayoral election). I’ll let you decide how well that’s worked out.

        NYC voted for Giuliani, the Republican, and later Bloomberg (Independent), and the city experienced a renaissance for 25 years.

        Vote for a Lefty for president, and you get Sotomayor or Ginsburg on your highest court. Vote Republican, and you get Thomas or Alito. I hope I don’t have to explain the significance of that.

        I did not say you should not pray for other nations or believers abroad. I do. I pray for our brethren especially in highly dangerous zones. I also pray for the overthrow of North Korea and for the Christianization of Japan. This is not the issue I have.

        Your nation was established by God. He doesn’t do things just for the heck of it. That should be your priority in your prayers. In your case, this is now England. And, you should get out and vote, the least of which for the reasons I itemized above. It is how you can play a part in the quality of life for your fellow citizens, which is an act of love on your part. It is also how you can help decide how Godly your nation will (likely) be or won’t. God will judge the nations. So, your voice — or lack thereof — in how it operates I do believe God will hold you accountable for.

        Now, if and when things still don’t work the way you hoped, you can at least say you fought and did what you could with what you had. Otherwise, you are part of the problem.

        Curious: Why are you part of a website / org that is fighting a cultural and spiritual war on behalf of a specific nation-state?

          Scott Smith
          July 12, 2020

          Could you elaborate on that last question please?

        Keith
        July 12, 2020

        I don’t understand your confusion. This site is a patriotic one, wanting to see spiritual and cultural revival in the United States. Your position is that worldly nations do not matter, just the ‘nation’ of the Church.

        Since you do not have a special burden for America in your heart, I’m curious to know why you’re here.

          Scott Smith
          July 13, 2020

          To provide a different perspective.

          Now let me ask you a question: Do you personally display a national flag?

        Keith
        July 13, 2020

        I live in an apartment with no way to hang a flag. However, I express my patriotism via bumper stickers 🙂 Among them is a Betsy Ross flag.

I can see some truth in this. But, I am always reticent about accepting modern-day prophecies as most fail to be realized.

On the issue of Trump’s re-election, how that does not happen after all of this far-left insanity is beyond me. I don’t know why there wouldn’t be a red wave the size of the one that hit the eastern seaboard in Deep Impact. But, I suppose the ability of the human being to be deceived I should not underestimate.

That all being said, there is nothing unGodly about seeking God for sins that we need to repent of and combat. We always need to keep cleaning house until God gives us our new bodies.

(On that note, WHY doesn’t He do that NOW?? I mean, the soul and spirit get rejuvenated, but not the body? Our sinful nature is not completely wiped out. Why not? Anyway… this is a digression.)

Yes, 2 Chronicles 7:14. The church must rise up and proclaim the gospel, for it is the power of God unto salvation to all who believe. There is no other name by which we may be saved. His is the name above every name, the Creator and our Redeemer, who has become our salvation!! The gates of hell shall not prevail against the church. It is believers, filled with God’s Spirit, proclaiming His truth in love, going into all the world to preach the gospel! Let God arise and the enemy be scattered, let the church arise and proclaim the good news, there is a way to be saved that He alone has provided for all who will believe!

This is a message from GOD to our hearts we must take these words form God’s man and seek our Lord with all our hearts for this work and for our country to come to Jesus with repentant hearts and to Salvation. Christians have not been serious about winning souls for Jesus we must put on our armor and pray and fight with love of Jesus to save a sin sick country.

Yes, this message is true. God is calling His Remnant, throughout the world, to believe and stand on His word. Everything in the Word will come to pass, the good as well as the bad. True believers will be persecuted, God will have a church without spot, wrinkle, or blemish. It is the pressure and the crushing that purifies and removes the spots and blemishes. God is also calling His people to believe that He is the God of the impossible. He is the answer to all the questions of mankind. He is our healer, our deliverer, or provider, and everything else we need. Our wholeness is in Him. Our world cannot have peace or love apart from God, and we can come to the Father only through Jesus. The Kingdom of God has come. Jesus is the King, we are His people. Our lives is to be lived according to the standard of His word. Man says religious unity can bring peace and love. But, what determines what peace and love looks like. God, in His word, is the one that sets the standard for peace and love. Man’s peace is an illusion. I Thessalonians 5:3 declares: “For when they say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.” We, His Body, must return to Him, with repentance, fasting and prayer. He is our only hope.

This is true!! Our nation needs revival. Revival only comes after/with repentance. Repentance must start with the complacent church. Holy Spirit, in Your mercy move upon all those who call themselves by the name of Jesus, to repent as You lead, to obey as You lead, to seek the Your Face oh God!

Portia McGehee
June 22, 2020

The message DEFINITELY rings TRUE with me. It is based on God’s ways. We know He does not change. We can see clearly from the Old Testament what He does when His people do not repent and keep on going their own way. So far, I have seen no true repentance in the church of our Lord Jesus Christ in the USA. Mario Murillo sees accurately that the blame lies on weak pastors and preaching. Too many are cowards. Too many are not aware of the times .

Mary R Varghese
June 22, 2020

Yes. I agree.
I have had this sense from the very beginning when Covid hit us, that these are part of Christ preparing the world stage for his Second coming and then with riots on top of that, everybody has recognized these are unusual times.
Clearly one cansee demonic forces are behind what is happening infact from when Trump announced his presidency. I have senses just like many others for such a time as this, he is our president.
The church needs to wake up and fight and take control. The last chance for USA before the inevitable.

In my spirit, i sense that this is truly a message for today. So much of our culture is geared to returning to the way it was before the pandemic. Well, the way it was, was not
that pleasing to God. we have wallowed in and enjoyed sin for too long. Lord, help us to truly repent and seek first the kingdom of God. He is waiting with open arms, if we will but seek Him with all our hearts. We need true revival!

It is Happening in our small assembly now! the pastor is like a fire. His administrations to the congregation , though small, are powerful through the Holy Spirit moving in our midst with tears and joyful consolations. The applications of anointing oil is producing changes in serious conditions and encouraged to ministry soberly to those who are in need in the order of the saints of the new testament reporting standards, administrations and good reports.

Absolutely rings true except the part about Trump being a banner for the calling of the church to repentance. Donald J Trump is the very antithesis for repentance. He pride in fraudulent business practices, his arrogant misogyny, his open Philandering is the very catalyst for the body Christ no reason to repent if the leader their Holy Movement is a slutty whore monger and gives hearty approval of followers who drink from his blasphemous cup. Instead of having disdain for the contemptible actions of the ICE and rogue police officers he honors and rewards their behavior. When the majority of the leadership of evangelical churches in America have Their secret sexual proclivities. The Christian community has the latest percentage of abortions. And why is that? Because the relative godless counter part use safe birth control. Self righteous Christian shame their children about sex before Marriage but secretly indulge their depravity by watch porn child or adult, underage boys or girls or worse condoning purchasing humans for sex.
My God man your waving the red flag abortion and homosexualIty as murder and Debauchery. All the while every Christian home has at least medicine cabinet the have birth control pills ( that can be abortifacients) or use an IUD which outright abortifacient. No wonder the church is unrepentant when the found a leader publicly praises those behaviors in himself and others.
Everything in this article I absolutely agree with accept thinking that the follower of Jeffery Epstein is a Godly Christian president.
MIND BOGGLING

    Deborah Brown
    June 23, 2020

    I believe God allowed President Trump to be in office for His purposes. Read Habakkuk. He complained to God about the sins of the people and asked God when He would step in and do something about it. God responded that He was sending the Babylonians to bring judgement. Habakkuk complained to God again about using the Babylonians because they were such sinful people. God let him know that the Babylonians would be judged as well. It was God, in His sovereignty to use President Trump. God knows how to humble him just as He did King Nebuchadnezzar. In the end, only God will get the glory. President Trump is an indictment against the Body of Christ. If we were in position, making an impact for the kingdom of God, we would have a righteous person as president. When God gets through with Trump, he like King Nebuchadnezzar will have to acknowledge that there is only one true God and He alone is to be worshiped.

The message is totally consistent with what I have suspected was going to be the case in our country but I refrained from saying so, save to one other believer who leaned in the same direction. I always felt I was the lone wolf, thinking negatively, but What I have been sensing is that we will experience nearly an identical carrying away into captivity like Israel to Babylon. For a time; the Lord will hide/spare his church/the remnant who trust His direction to go and serve the captors, but those who don’t go along with the captivity will suffer a miserable fate. And, finally, that the Lord will, once again, restore and revive the remnant in due time; the victory is theirs in the end.
Aforementioned friend and I are quite consistently “on the same page” as this prophet, and much appreciate his boldness and clarity.

Amen Brother Mario! As a Born-Again, Holy Ghost Baptized, Tongue Talking, Demon Discerning, Christian Counselor, and Son of the Living God, I have felt the way you have expressed so vividly and truthfully, regarding the Church and its so-called, self-appointed leaders. The messages being preached for the past 20-years have nothing to do with Repentance and Salvation. It is all about doing good, being attentive every time the doors are open, tithing, condemnation, and self-centeredness! Wake up Brothers and Sisters in Christ before evil completely overthrows America! We are headed down the road of destruction and irrelevance as a Nation due to the FAILURE of the leadership of the Church of Jesus the Christ!

Clarence Mitchell
June 20, 2020

The scripture in Chronicals tell us that “if my people will repent, turn from their wickedness, and pray, then (and only then) will we hear from heaven…..The church has tolerated wickedness for far to long. And as the prophecy declares above, preachers have been patting them selves on the back, Oh! what a good boy am I” The frightening scenario played out every night on our tv’s should wake us up to the reality that something horrible is happening to our nation. The rioters declare “no justice no peace” I declare there is no justice or peace if Almighty God is not in the mix. Only God can bring us back from the edge of total destruction. He only asks us to repent and pray and He will do the rest.

I have known and followed Mario Murillo’s ministry for decades. He never misses a beat. He is a true prophetic voice. His words do not “tickle the ears”. Instead his message is rend your hearts not your garments. In this desperate hour, I am praying that the “ekklesia” will hear this word and respond to what the Lord is calling it to. God help us if we do not.

America is at a tipping point. We must hear the word of the Lord and repent, then rise up to storm the gates of hell!

I have been troubled by the continuous printing of prosperity and the obviously false prophecies that are coming out. If we don’t go out and vote and Trump doesn’t will the next election it will mean the end of the United States. It will mean the end of the great land that the Lord established. I have long been troubled by the fact that the church has not stood against the rising tide of her people choosing to walk against the evil in her midst. It is time for the church to rise up against the evil in our country. Even when I speak against it to my fellow Christians, I get a silent reaction, they are blind to what is going on and what is coming. They choose to ignore it they choose to want it to be as it was in olden times. Well, it isn’t and it is time to rise up against it.

Jerry E Sauls
June 19, 2020

It does resonate with me very clearly. Before Trump was elected I was praying for God to send our nation a reprieve as I know others were. Well, He did and now it is up to the believers to bow our knew before Him and pour our souls and spirits out to Him asking Him to send a great Revival in our world, a revival of repentance for those who are attempting to say in the middle. I believe if the Church does not fall to its knees and cry out to God in forgiveness and intercession, we will not see another reprieve. The CHURCH must see another great awakening sent by God to change the direction of the Church. The will and purpose of God is to see the unsaved brought to Him, that is His greatest purpose and that is why we are here to see it happen. So, what must we do? First, we MUST PRAY and intercede more than ever before; second, we must ask God to lead us personally to seek and save those that are lost and brought into the kingdom of God. “Lift up your eyes and look at the fields for they are already white for harvest. ” John 4:34 (NKJV). John 3:16 simply states God’s plan, “For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” This Brothers and Sisters is God’s ultimate plan, everything else falls to a lower level. May God help us to follow His purposes. Amen!

Thank you, thank you. John 10:12 spoke to me this week.
We pray for the hirelings to be restored to the God of their salvation for their own sakes and for the sake of the sheep. We pray Titus 2:12-14, that Jesus would purify these hirelings unto Himself so that they would be zealous of good works to serve the living God with consciences that are purged from the dead works of a compromised gospel message that has deluded them and their flocks. Now, Father, we ask according to Nehemiah 9:27 that you raise up true deliverers in the body of Christ for the sake of the sheep. We cry out to You as the good shepherd to intervene now to prevent the scattering of the sheep. Forgive us for itching ears that have allowed this delusion to entertain us. Deliver us through truth to truth. Please, Father, restore Your people and restore this nation to the destiny You hold for it. Thank you that You are faithful when we are faithless. We ask for the zeal of The Lord to perform this.

Yes! Yes! This time has been a time of awakening has been a time of blessing for the spiritual awakening of His bride and of the lost. because we have been sleeping and the devil has kept us satisfied in our flesh with no conviction in our spirit no outcry for the abortions and infanticide and the homosexual marriages and homosexual ministers there’s been no outcry there’s been silence from the pulpit we thought that we were healthy and fat and happy and didn’t know that we were On the verge of death and starvation and our eyes were blind and we are full of sores so the Lord has helped us to stop in our tracks and to go deep and ask is it well with my soul yes this word of repentance is necessary very necessary thank you for sharing it!

In October 2016 God gave me a word, He said, “if the Church does not repent, great catastrophe, great calamity, and great chaos is coming”. I shared this word yet I have not seen the real repentance. Many proclaim 2 Chron. 7:14 yet I have been hearing this used since 1995! I have yet to see the fruit of it as our land being healed. As this article states the Church needs true repentance.
Many years ago in 1997 God gave me a vision. He showed me the Church on her face crying out and in repentance was key to the revival breaking out.
In August 2019 He gave me another vision. I had a tent vision. Isaiah 54:2-4 is the scripture for that one. The tent stretched across the whole nation. The prayers of the saints were holding up the poles keeping the tent pegs up. He also showed planting a very large acorn in the middle. For that part I got oak of righteousness. I shared the 2016 word of repentance and the Tent Vision on Facebook.
In May of 2015 I had a dream warning the enemy had a plan to attack and it would begin in WV. A fire would be burning and when it went off it was a signal to other places to start the fires in other cities. Then darkness came and I saw troops parachuting in. There is more to this dream but on Tuesday June 16 I received word from a dear friend that a certain group associated with the riots have begun buying office space in the Capitol of WV. WV is known for it’s oil refineries. The fires in the dream were very large explosive fires. These fires caught many off guard as no one expected nor suspected them. Then after the fires I saw wilderness and gross darkness and troops decending down with parachutes. I believe this is coming as I asked the Father after many prayers had it happened or had my requests of intercession prevented it? My friend calling me “out of the blue” and nit knowing why she was sharing the information of them buying office space in WV brought back the dream in vivid detail. I have yet to share this dream in detail. I plan to post it soon so we may all pray and be prepared. I do not share what He shows me unless I sense it’s time. God bless. May the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

Praying that the Church will be aware of the devil’s schemes, his deception, how he will manipulate their sense of compassion into a falsehood. There are ways to be compassionate without laying down and letting the devil walk all over us, swallowing all his lies. So I’m praying for eyes to be opened to the wolf under the sheep’s clothing. He tries to look good, but underneath it all, he just wants to destroy our country, he wants to destroy people.

I am in agreement that the nation and her people need to repent and seek God like never before. However, it seems that we are putting too much stock in one “man” and forgetting the One that put him there. God is the One who raises up kings and brings down kingdoms!

There is no question this message is true! It is probably the most important message the church needs to respond to appropriately as soon as possible. It starts with prayer, prayer for ourselves, our families, our churches and our country. We must pray for our leaders starting with President Trump. I personally believe President Trump already knows all this and continues to encourage the church to support him and pray for him. He has known all along the importance of the church arising in this hour to do what is necessary to allow us to have godly leaders remain in office. If we don’t pray and don’t vote that will not happen. It is up to the church for this country to remain strong spiritually and defeat the enemy who wants to destroy us. We are at war and warriors are needed! Rise up church and let’s do our job!

I have said for 10 years that persecution is coming to America, come back to the Lord in my church, but sadly no one believed me, even my family thinks that I am crazy, not a prophet. Here is the proof, I have sent diaster upon diaster on this world since Agnes, no response from the churches in America.
I am not doing what I was called to do as one with mantle of Elijah- a call for repentance. God told me that He wants a relationship with His people- come back to Me, let me have your caes and worrys, spend time with Me, live for Me and do want what I require of you. This has been the message that God has given me. How many has to die before people listen to my voice- since Agnes, I have killed 4 billion people who could have lived if they repented.

For revival to come, there must first be a humble, heartfelt, crying out to the Lord in repentance for our sins and the sins of our nation. It usually takes dire circumstances for people to realize they are not in control of what happens in this world and to look to the Almighty God for help and mercy. The Lord is shaking what can be shaken to bring us into brokenness so we align ourselves with the solid Rock. I believe the Lord is looking for believers who love not their lives unto death, who fearlessly stand up for righteousness and will not be silenced by political correctness. We are citizens of heaven, ambassadors in a foreign land who are called to fulfill the will of the King. It is a time as never before to draw near to the Lord, to hear His voice, to boldly carry out His purposes through the power of the Holy Spirit. The Kingdom of heaven is at hand through us. “My sheep hear My voice and I know them and they follow Me.” John 10:27

    Ignorance and a lack of Knowledge, Godly Wisdom as well, as you allow Satan to deceive, distort and delude you. The Highest Call is upon your life in these last moments before the Rapture of the Born-Again Believers.

      Take a good long look in the mirror, I have seen and heard much about this subject and this man Mario.

      Apply ignorance and lack of knowledge to yourself Cleveland. Mario goes way back to 1960s Berkeley college issues. I am 76 and long versed in prophetic issue and end time issues. For all of these warnings he issues much has not been spread very far as to what he has and is saying.

      My prayer for the eyes of my understanding is long ongoing, way before your reply. No attitude, just being straight forward with you.

      Does any of you study indicate the HOLY Spirit ” ORDERS ” any of us to do this or that ? Not as Jesus describes in the gosples I have read. Leading, guiding constraining, not ordering.

        Cleveland Douglas Gentry
        June 20, 2020

        Amen! We are to be instant (ready) in season and out. The past where Murillo is concerned is just that, the past. His message here is 100% accurate regarding the non-leadership of 95% of churches today. No one wants to face the truth as to the losing of this Nation to Satan and his demonically influenced patriots. America is well on its way to irrelevance in world position and this is where the church has failed, and continues to fail. As a Missionary/Evangelist/Teacher to Ukraine since 1993, I have witnessed more embracing of true Christianity, as stated by Our Lord Himself (John 14:12) than at any time here in America. America is now under the strongest and most deliberate attack than ever before because the very core of democracy and morality is influenced so directly by Satan and his realm of darkness. I meant no disrespect in any way for we are Brothers in Christ, fighting against evil.

It was truly refreshing to read through this article. My heart is heavy as I wondered, why are we not taking time to repent, fast, seek the LORD and call out for a miracle only HE can accomplish. Why are we NOT sharing that we will be held accountable for who we vote for? One brings life–the other death. There is no gray area any longer-it is plain-light and darkness! Thank you for speaking out the truth! If the church does not arise in repentance and listen for the direction and leading of the LORD, I shudder to imagine what will happen to my children and grandchildren. LORD, have mercy on us–we have sinned and turned from YOUR ways, picking up idols in all forms and fashions, indulging our own desires instead of yours, and basking in comfort instead of taking stands for righteousness. Forgive us LORD-bring us back to your heart and heal our land. Forgive our sins of idol worship, self-gratification, comfort, and popularity teaching doctrins that only tickle man’s ears. Draw us to your heart and break our harden ones. Lead us and guide us showing us what you desire for us at this moment in history. Forgive us for sitting in comfort as we allowed men and women to lead us astray. Bring us back to a heart of worship for you alone. Fill our president with wisdom
and surround him with people who have a heart after yours-who will lead him in righteousness in Jesus name.

    Cathy:

    I love my pastor. He has spoken powerfully under the anointing and he has done so recently. And I am speaking this with some degree of humility because I want to be careful about “touching God’s anointed.” However, there are topics that my pastor generally does not speak on. One of them is politics and public policy.

    One of the core values of our church is “Efficiency: we believe numbers matter because people count.” On the surface this sound good because people really do matter! However, the flip side is that he is reluctant to address some topics because he is afraid of offending someone; particularly visitors. Therefore, he is reluctant to talk on money or politics. He is reluctant to talk on money because of the perception that churches “always” talk on money. The other is politics. He is reluctant to talk politics because he does not want to offend visitors who belong to a specific political party. He speaks strongly on repentance from relational sins that result in divorce and separation. He is reluctant to address repentance from idolatry.

    The focus seems to be more on obtaining healing from societal woes rather than preventing them in the first place. Healing is easy because people go from sick to well. I got better; so, I will stay here. Prevention is less popular. It requires taking responsibility. This can involve bitter medicine. That could result in people leaving. Because size generally is determined by the number of visitors that come in the door, anything that could be viewed as reducing that number is frowned upon.

      David:
      Our church before the “pandemic” was about 60 people. Since we have started back we have about 12-16. Our Pastors have been preaching on the fact we MUST be careful who we vote for and if they do NOT have Godly values, we better think twice before voting for them. They are also not concerned with numbers, but that those who are there are fed the TRUE WORD OF GOD, no sugar-coating. They have called for prayer with our church body, however, there is a small “remnant” that is on the prayer line. Our Prayers are powerful and full of repentance for the Church, government, Pastors, Leaders, and for God’s people. We pray for our nation and all aspects of darkness to be overcome with Light and the Love of God and ask God to use us during this time of brokenness to be bold and a witness. Because of their Pure Hearts, our Pastors have been blessed in every way during this time, along with those who are faithful in our church body. God is blessing those who are standing on the Truth during this time and who will not bow down to the darkness. And I am not speaking just financial blessings. I might add my Pastors are white, my husband and I are white and the rest of our body is African-American or mixed couples, with 2 single white females.

      If a Pastor and/or church is only concerned about the numbers to help support them and what their church stands for, then that is not a place where God resides, nor will it be a last day remnant church. God’s Anointed can still be going against the Word of God, yet have a “number-thriving” congregation and an appearance “all is well” within the body. I would encourage you to find some place that agrees with your convictions and get involved in being the last day remnant, if that is where your heart’s desire is. We are given freedom of choice and are not bound to stay where we disagree with the Shepherd’s voice and are not being fed the Truth in EVERY AREA, not just those “comfortable” for the time and to draw more financial support and numbers in the door. This has been one of my prayers that TRUTH be spoken from every pulpit, no matter how uncomfortable, controversial, no matter the ridicule or disdain from the body of Christ and that every Pastor and Teacher would come to full repentance for their “idol worship” of things that have taken them from their first true love-GOD. I will pray that God show you the direction to go and that you follow his lead.

I believe that what we are seeing now is just a foretaste of what God will be doing after we are raptured from the earth. Can you imagine the chaos, lawlessness, anger and hatred that will come then? We must be vigilant, diligent in prayer, good stewards of His gifts and blessings and doers of the word not just hearers.
I love praying bold prayers and truly delight to see God answer them.
God is no respecter of persons and if we pray and He agrees, it is a “done deal”.

Spot-on. Much Truth spoken here.

Today, IF you hear His voice, DO NOT HARDEN your heart! Remember the parable of the Sower & the Seed! How is your soil? Are you able to receive the Word I’m implanted which is able to SAVE your soul?

James!, great book for the days we live. Church correction & Church growth.

We cry for revival and deliverance. As Jesus plans for His return, the light of His glory, begins to reveal all darkness, within the church and without. The closer He gets the more I’m revealed. Humility & Radical Repentance is my only Hope.

I we walk in the Light as He is in Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus will cleanse us if all unrighteousness! Or, as I like to think, self-righteousness!

1 John & James! Read the Gospels and NT when you are being shook to the core, the Church was born in times like these!

I wonder if our hope is in prosperity, ease, material blessing and that is not what the early church in the book of Acts experienced. So many riots there, persecution and hardships, yet a faith and love for our Lord that was counting it a privilege to suffer. My flesh does not like that!!!! Repentance and humility so so so important. I want to seek first His kingdom even in the midst of unrest. Seek what will cause the unsaved to repent, believe in Jesus, and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Lord work in my life as Philippians 2:13 says “for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure” Baptize us with Your strength, truth, repentance and humility. In Jesus name Amen

Father, forgive us for listening to false prophets rather than memorizing, internalizing, sharing the eternal Word of God which is sufficient. We have chased after false teachers that tickle our ears instead of being the 5 virgins waiting for the voice of her Bridegroom. Lord, call Your people out of these gimmicky charlatan churches that we may be washed with the pure water of the Word. Help us to be Bereans to test all things by Your Word alone, in Christ alone, for His Glory alone. Amen

    Aside from keeping a short account with God for our own sins, we can take back ground which the enemy has stolen by doing neighborhood prayer walks. Praying for the Lord to forgive us and our families for the crimes and bloodshed committed by others which have cursed the land and affected us and our loved ones. In Jesus’ name, declare every curse on the land to be broken and lifted and ask God to restore His blessings upon it.

The opposing Revival has sparked in Tampa Florida by Pastor Rodney Howard Browne who refused to bow to baal and got arrested while fighting for the church. How many other pastors took that level of stand and were willing to get arrested to keep the church open! In 2005 God gave Pastor Rodney a vision of ‘Field’ meetings like in Africa all over America with tens of thousands coming and ‘no name’ people of Faith having meetings with the Fire and Glory of God Present and powerful signs, wonders, and miracles happening constantly. This HAS started, it started at his church on Pentecost Sunday. Every REAL Christian needs to reject their feckless pastors and either get to Tampa or open your own field and do it yourself!

Heb 5:11 Of whom we have many things to say (Jesus/Melchisedec). & are hard to be uttered, seeing you are dull of hearing. 12. For when the time you ought to be teachers, you have a need that someone teaches you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; & are become such as have need of milk & not strong meat. 13. For every one that uses milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. 14. But strong meat belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good & evil.

Lord, as the works of the enemy swirl all around us as a whirlpool trying to sink us into the depths of despair; as we see America changing in such ungodly ways, we cry out to You to turn the tide of lies into
a time of Your truth like never before, truly!
“Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; let those who hate Him flee before Him.
But let the righteous be glad; Let them rejoice before God; Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.” Psalm 68:1

This is not the time for despair, this is the time for hope, for believing that our God answers prayer!
And so we pray ~ Lord, Revive ALL of America again! Remember Kate Smith singing “God Bless America?”

“God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her, and guide her, with The light, that shines bright
bright from above. From the mountains to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam; God bless America, my
home sweet home, God bless America my home sweet home.”

I hope I got all those words to that song correct, doing it from memory. (At 79)
Blessings everyone, and remember, we serve a mighty God! Keep praying, Anita

    Lord, Jesus,
    I repent for the sins of my people. Forgive us for not loving our neighbors as ourselves. Forgive us for idolatry, murders, adultery, thievery, lies, abortion, homosexuality, pedophilia, child abuse, domestic violence, etc. We have blood on our hands as a nation. Please renew our minds and help us to know the difference between righteousness and evil, right and wrong. Please bring the works of darkness into the light and expose the evil to every one. Let justice fall like rain! Please have mercy on our nation. Let us not take vengeance out of your hands and take it upon ourselves. Please help President Trump to lead us rightly and in a godly way. Give him godly counselors and close his ears to ungodly counsel. Root out anything that is not of you in our government, our homes, our churches, and businesses. Teach us to live righteously and love one another as you have loved us. Lord God, we need you desperately! Invade our hearts with your wisdom and power and grace! I plead Your precious and holy blood over the inhabitants of this nation. Please forgive us of all our unrighteousness. In the powerful and mighty name of Jesus! Amen.

This message resonates with me. God puts me on fasts and prayer vigils like Anna in the Bible. He has once again called me to a Daniel fast. He also wakes me around 2 a.m. and has me pray at length for His church. He has given me so many prayers for His church and night after we have been praying. I didn’t understand why because I thought the worse was over – thinking isn’t revival just around the corner, Lord? I will keep praying and more vigorously. Come on church, respond!!! I have a pastor who is one preaching on repentance and he has been in the Book of Lamentations. It is very powerful. Keep pressing into the Lord. I have first-hand experience that He is working. Praise You, Lord!!
