ANNAMARIE: All right, so, uh, today is Friday, February 14 of 2025, and the Spirit of the Lord has come upon me very strongly, very intensely, very powerfully through the heart of Father God, uh, and He’s given me a prophetic word to speak, and I am going to just, right now, just submit myself to the Holy Spirit and let this word flow to me and through me to all of you. 

Hear the word of the Lord. It is a time for a renaissance among the children. They shall say. “It is like Divincis and Beethovens and Michelangelos have arisen in the children. How can this be? No one has taught them this. How can they pick up the paintbrush and the carving tools and sit at the musical instruments and create such masterpieces if they have not learned it in the schools and in the education systems?”

The Lord says, “HA! Your education systems have failed, but I, the Lord, do not. I am raising up the anointings in the children. I am raising them up as musical geniuses, artistic geniuses, craftsmen, and it shall be that the children shall walk away from the screens of their computers and their games, and they shall pick up their musical instruments and their paint brushes and their carving tools, and they shall say, “Mother, Father, I do not want the toys and games. I want to create. Give me the wood. Give me the musical instruments. Give me the dancing floors, for I want to create what is inside of me.” 

The children will not be able to hold back this creativity. It shall flow, and the adults shall be astounded, and they will say, “Where did this come from? How can it be?” But I, the Lord, have done it. I am raising up the children, the geniuses that shall flow, and these children shall come from every walk of life, from every home. For I, the Lord, have taught them through My Holy Spirit. They have been born with these gifts – double mantles, double anointings.

“The musical teachers and the teachers of art in the schools shall rejoice. They shall say, ‘Finally, finally, finally, I am able to teach the children because they’re coming to me already hungry for the music, already hungry for the dance, already hungry for the arts, already hungry for the poetry.’ And it shall flow from these children like wells of living water. For I have given the children the upper spring and the lower spring. I have given them the hot springs, the hot springs to soothe them and bathe them and purify them like I did in the years gone by, but I shall also give them the upper springs and the lower springs, and they shall have the cool, refreshing springs. My children shall drink of the living water. They shall be refreshed in the spirit – the Divincis, the Michaelangelos, the architects, the artists, the musicians. People will be astounded. It will be the children that will teach the teachers. It will be like My Son when He sat at the temple and spoke to the elders, and they were astounded at His wisdom, so it shall be in the children. 

“These children have gone from paupers to princes. They shall carry the children and raise them up, for I have covered them with the blood of My Son and the anointing of My Holy Spirit. They are clothed in dignity and wisdom. My prophets, teachers, and evangelists shall arise through the children. The children shall stand upon the stages and in the spotlights and teach of My Word and prophesy and lay hands of healing like the world has never seen before. And they will say, “Where did these children come from? How can it be? How can they know these things?

“But it is the work of My Holy Spirit, and the children shall say to their parents, ‘Arise, Mother. Arise, Father. Do you not know that you had a gift within you from a, a young age?’ And you shall use it again. And the children shall help stir the gifts back up in their parents, and their parents will be like little children again, and they shall say, ‘Ah, I picked up the paintbrush again. I have picked up the gardening tools.’

“And the children shall build and create beside their parents, and I shall finance these things,” says the Lord. “And I shall finance the art centers, and I shall finance these programs across the Nation of America and into the world, and there will be patent leather shoes of the children that shall run to the patent offices, and the children shall have patents for inventions, and they shall have such witty ideas. It’ll be like, ‘This is a renaissance. How can this be? Only since the time of Davinci has this been,’ but the Lord has said, ‘It is ME! For the wicked one have done everything in their power to hold back the gifts of the children, but NO MORE! I, the Lord, have spoken, and those wicked ones who have prostituted our children and done everything they could to make a slavery system out of the education system, they shall be slaves themselves. THEY SHALL BE MADE FOOLS OF! THEY SHALL GROVEL IN THE STONES AND KISS THE FEET OF THE CHILDREN WHO HAVE ALL THE WISDOM! 

“And the children shall be raised up on the shoulders of the parents. For I, the Lord, have contended with those who have contended with you – mothers and fathers and grandparents, aunts and uncles, and the teachers who have cried out into the midnight hour. I have contended with those who have contended with you, and I’ve saved the children. And I have put a leader at the helm and those who will come beside him who will advocate for the children. It is done. It is already written, and I, the Lord, shall be glorified in all of this for I have been there in the night. 

“I have seen and wrestled with the prayers of the weeping mothers and the weeping fathers and the weeping teachers. Yes, the teachers. I know the teachers have wanted this – the good teachers – because the mothers and the fathers and the teachers and the grandparents have wrestled with me deep into the night, says the Lord, and they have said to Me, ‘I am not letting go of you until You bless me,’ and like Jacob, I have blessed you. I am blessing the mothers and the fathers. I am blessing the grandparents and the aunts and the uncles and the teachers who have wrestled with me deep into the night. And I have said, ‘Yes, I will bless you.’ And your daughters shall be like the graceful pillars in a palace, and your sons shall be like a well-watered vine. 

“And this renaissance shall come, and there will be tabernacle choirs of children singing in every place. And the music shall rise, and it shall be like perfume to My nostrils as the musical performances shall come from the voices of the children. And, even in the schools, they shall sing the songs of great symphonies.”

And I hear in the spirit now, the children singing Isaiah. [Singing] He shall feed his flock like a shepherd. [End singing] 

“And I, the Good Shepherd, have led the children and their parents back to Me, back to My green pastures, back to My still waters, and I shall give them rest on all sides because the attacks on the children HAVE STOPPED TODAY! And now the children and the mothers and the fathers and the schools and the homeschooling, everywhere shall be schooled by My Holy Spirit and by My Son, Jesus Christ, and the children shall no lo, longer listen to the voice of the stranger. They shall listen to the voice of their Good Shepherd, MY SON, YESHUA! 

“And there shall be rejoicing and dancing in the street and great performances, and people shall be astounded at the ballerinas and the opera singers. They shall be astounded at the symphonies and the choirs of the children. They shall be astounded at the musical prodigies that have come forth. They shall be astounded at the masterpieces that these children are creating in paints and oils and watercolors, even in pencil drawings. They shall be astounded at the building that these children shall build.

“And how can this knowledge come upon the children? IT IS FROM ME,’ says the Lord. ‘For it is the children’s hour, and I shall bring the second trumpet next to the trumpet that I have raised up for this time. He is young, and he is a genius. He has wisdom beyond his years, not of this world but of mine, of my kingdom. And I’m raising up the leaders with an anointing from birth, and it is a double victory, and the parents shall be rejoicing because this is the generation that has sought My face. 

“And I’m releasing the generational bloodline promises and blessings upon this generation and the baby booms that shall come. Oh, it is glorious, and these children are being birthed in the earth FILLED WITH MY SPIRIT, and they will not be quiet. They will speak of such wisdom, and they will say, ‘How can these toddlers be speaking of such wisdom and such knowledge?’ And they will say, ‘Surely, this is God.’ [Inaudible] 

“And I, the Lord, shall be glorified in such a way like the world has never seen before, and I’m raising up five-fold ministries in these children – prophets, teachers, evangelists, healers. And they shall say, ‘Mother, Father, I must go and I must preach.’ 

“DO NO HOLD YOUR CHILDREN BACK! Nurture them in this. You nurture your children in this, there will be a crown waiting for you for I, the Lord, have already written it. It is done, and watch and see what I do to those who have held back the children. Watch and see what I will do to those who have held back the gifts of the children! They will grovel at your feet. The mothers and fathers that stayed up in the night and cried out to me, I have counted their tears. The mothers and the fathers who have said, ‘Why has my child had to go through such pain and bullying and abuse?’ For the evil ones have tried to raise up their evil villages, and they have tried to say, ‘It takes a village to raise a child.’ NO! That is a lie from the pit of hell! It takes two good parents – a mother and a father, a female and a male raising up the children according to My Word, according to My promises, in the name of My Son, Yeshua, through My Holy Spirit. 

“And children who have been raised up, and even those who have gone prodigal, and those parents who have prayed in the night who have done everything they could to keep their children focused on Me, and even if their children went prodigal, even if the demonic systems have tried to turn their children away from Me, IT HAS BEEN FUTILE! IT HAS BEEN FUTILE! I’M TALKING ABOUT THE DEMONIC SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN FUTILE, SAYS THE LORD, IT HAS BEEN A WASTE OF THEIR TIME!

“But I remember the time that the parents put in doing everything they could to instill My righteousness in the children. It has not been futile! It has not gone to waste! I, the Lord, remember all of it! And now those good seeds that you have sowed into your children and your children’s children, and even those good seeds from generations before that have been sowed into the generations in the name of My Son, Yeshua, in My name, through My Holy Spirit, those seeds are coming to harvest now in your children for my church, for my ecclesia, for my kingdom. They have not gone to waste. They have not been futile, for they have been incubated for a time, and now they are blossoming and blooming and perking up through the soil. Watch and see. For, My children, I have heard.

“Prodigals are no longer prodigal. Every lie that they have tried to instill in the children’s minds are being reversed right now. The parents who have cried out to Me in the night and the grandparents, I’ve heard your prayers and all the good seeds that you have sowed into your children of righteousness are blooming and blossoming and growing and coming to harvest. It has not been in vain; it has not. I, the Lord, have remembered you.

“Rachel no longer weeps for her children. The crying in the night has been heard. For I, the Lord, have raised up your children for this time, and I call your children blessed, for your prayers have blessed Me, says the Lord. I have not forgotten you. Mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, aunt, uncle, teacher, intercessor who has prayed for the children, contending for all these years crying out to Me, coming before My throne of grace, your prayers and your offerings and your seeds have accumulated before me, says the Lord, and I remember them today. And I’m dispatching My angels now to carry these out, and prepare to see My glory in the children and in your families and in your communities. And I’m raising up leaders to nurture your children that are filled with the Holy Spirit in such a way because these desires of the teachers that have My heart are finally to be fulfilled.”

Oh, the music teachers are rejoicing. The art teachers are rejoi, joicing. The dancing teachers are rejoicing. He says there will be shop classes again. The children will be building. They will say, “We do not want these screens of our phones and our iPads and our computers. No, we want to work with wood and tools and machines and wires and create and draw.” And the plans have rolled out, and the draftsman tables have been rolled back in, and the hunger these children have for this is incredible. And the daughters picking up the needles and the embroideries and the sewing machines, and they shall say, “I will work with wool and silks and linens and cottons. What are these plastics and these fake fabrics? Your daughters will want nothing to do with those.

And the sons and the daughters come beside the parents and say, “Mother, Father, let us create a garden. Let us grow the foods. Let us raise the livestock.” And I will give them land and the children and the livestock and the gardens and the families will grow. And I will walk with them in the land in the cool of the day, and they will say, “Look, Mama. Look, Papa. I see Jesus. He is walking with us in the garden. He is with us.”

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon the families and the children, and I have anointed them, and I proclaim this is a time of great favor, a renaissance of brilliance and beauty, of growth, of harvest, of singing and rejoicing like the world has never seen before. And My hand is upon it and My glory, and it is written and nothing can come against it. So be it,” says the Lord.

Thank You, Father. Thank You, Jesus. You’ve heard us. You’ve heard our prayers. You’ve heard us weeping in the night and contending and wrestling for our children. Our prayers have not been in vain. Thank You. We praise You today, and we worship you, Almighty God. You are faithful. We are in expectation of Your glory in the children. 

Father God, equip us to help these children, that Your Holy Spirit will lead us. Give us understanding of what You’re doing so that we can be obedient, Father God.

And He’s given me two scriptures – Isaiah 49 and Isaiah 61 – and Isaiah 61 is being fulfilled for our children, and Isaiah 49 is being fulfilled for our children. Because I know I’m one of those moms …

You know, it’s interesting, He kept showing me one of my mentoring students that I’ve had for some time. Her name is Anji Morgan-Thornton, and, uh, she’s a professor of music. She’s also a race car driver, and I coached and mentored her for years. But she has a child-like faith, incredible child-like faith, and her and I have been praying together for years. I mean, her and I have been together for years praying. And she has prayed and prayed and prayed and suffered, suffered as a music professor, suffered as a music teacher because the schools and the universities did everything they could to make her job difficult, did everything they could to strip her from budgets.

And many times, her and I would spend hours on the phone and on the Zoom calls praying for the children, praying for the schools and the universities, praying for these arts and music to come back for the children and to remove these evil, wicked agendas and bring back the, the, uh, the artistic, creative because that is the Father’s heart. And Anji has the Father’s heart, and I’m so excited to give her this word because this is something she’s been praying for for years. And Anji’s done everything she could to keep the, these, uh, these teachings and these gifts, uh, alive for the children. She has fought, and she will be so excited to hear this word from the Lord. Because did you hear him? He said He’s going to bring the budgets back for this. He’s going to finance it, and He’s going to help the teachers that have prayed for this for years and the children that are going to come forth into these programs. It’s going to be incredible, and it’s going to be music, the arts, all types of creative, and craftsmanship. It’s going to be beautiful, and God is doing this.

And He showed me, He showed me mothers and fathers in the spirit, like Jacob, wrestling with Him into the night, crying out, and I, I was one of those moms for years because my daughter is an artist. My daughter is a singer and a musician. My daughter is a horsewoman. 

And I remember He told me to sow a three-dollar seed. He told me to take $3.00 – 3 one dollar bills – and sow that seed to Him and name each dollar my daughter’s gift for art, my daughter’s gift for music, and my daughter’s gift for horsemanship. And He said to sow those one dollar seeds into His kingdom – and, I mean, this was back in 2014, 2015 – and put it in an envelope and write down what the seed was and sow it. 

He told me to bring it to church and put it in, in, in the offering plate and name that seed and that those gifts that He put in her would be used for His glory. And He reminded me of that seed again today.

Now, if you have sown a seed for your children, and you have named that seed for their God-given gifts to be used for the glory of God, call forth that seed to harvest right now because this is the timing we’re in. And the Lord is saying we’ve wrestled Him into the night and said, “I’m not letting go until you bless me, until You bless my children and my grandchildren,” and he said, “I’m blessing you.”

And, you know, I can remember asking my daughter to go to church and all those things, and she would, it was a struggle. It was a struggle. And the Lord is saying He’s going to reward the parents who did everything they could to instill the Word of God and righteousness into their children. Even though it was a struggle, He has not forgotten that, and those parents that have struggled with that, He said He will reward them and their children. And their children will be scholars of the Bible, of His Word, and will have five-fold ministries. He has not forgotten. 

Everything that you have tried to do with your children, it was not, it did not go to waste. It was not futile. He said, did you hear what He said? He said what was futile is the demonic brainwashing that they tried to instill in our children. That’s coming to nothing. But our efforts as parents to instill righteousness and good values in our children is what was rooted and shall blossom and grow and be fruitful. Thank You, God. 

And I saw behind the parents and the grandmothers and the grandparents when they were coming before the throne of grace for King Jesus, huge mighty angels. I saw it in the spirit that the Lord, ah, when you pray as a grandmother or a mother or as a father or a grandfather or as an intercessor and you went boldly to the throne of grace, even when you were being ridiculed, even when times were very hard, but you still went before that throne of grace, before the Father, He gave me a vision this morning. 

And He said when you did that, He immediately signed, assigned mighty angels to you and your children to protect you and your children through this time. I saw three angels per person for their children and their grandchildren – huge, massive, muscular, armored up.

So when you went before the Lord and contended and said, “I’m here for the children. I’m here for the grandchildren. Immediately, three mighty angels of the Lord were assigned to you to carry out your prayers for the children. I saw it in the spirit. That’s happening. 

Now, when He showed me the trumpet and He said, “This trumpet is President Trump, who is contending for the children, and there’s going to be a smaller, a younger trumpet that comes beside him.” Now, I don’t know if that is Barron or other younger men and women coming beside him. Now, I noticed that President Trump has assigned a lot of other younger leaders with children and a lot of young people into these places, and he’s giving them a voice. 

So I saw these double trumpets, and it’s like two horns on a freight train. You know how like the freight train is coming and it’s got the double horns on it, and nothing is going to stop this. This is the glory train. And Trump is the big trumpet, and there’s another smaller trumpet, younger one that is coming beside President Trump that is younger but it’s, it’s a, it’s a second powerful voice, and it’s for the children, and it’s a younger person.

And this younger person is going to be helping to raise up these child prodigies and these geniuses and giving them opportunities. I don’t know if this is Barron. I don’t know if this is Elon Musk. I don’t know, I’m not sure who it is. I just saw the main trumpet, President Trump, and then the second smaller trumpet. And He’s giving that person that voice. This is the Lord, and it’s going to be a, a younger person that is going to be speaking up for the children and raising up the children into places of authority because these children will be absolutely brilliant, and the demons are screaming. Too bad, they’re getting run over by the freight train, the glory train because the Lord says it’s written, it’s done. 

Now, when we get a prophetic word like this, we pray on it. And the Lord is giving us two scriptures, and I’m going to read from, we’re going to read, uh, right now Isaiah 41 [sic – meant 61]. And the Lord reminded me that He had me take Isaiah 41[sic – meant 61] and turn it into a prayer, into a decree over the children. And I’m going to read from that, and then we’re going to go … Okay, wait a minute. He’s saying He wants Isaiah 49 first and then Isaiah 61. Okay, Lord, I will do this. [Sigh] I mean, the anointing of the Holy Spirit is very heavy on me right now. I’m doing everything I can to be obedient with this word. Okay, Is, Isaiah, Isaiah, uh, 49. He wants us to pray on that scripture. I’m going to go to the King James version. 

Heavenly Father, Father God, we thank You for Your Word in Isaiah 49. We thank You, Lord, for this prophetic word this morning. We thank You, oh, Father, You are so faithful, and we believe Your word in Isaiah 49 when You say this is what You are doing for us right now and this is what You’re doing for the children. 

1 Listen, O isles, unto me, and hearken, ye people, from far; the Lord hath called me from the womb from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. 2 And He hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of His hand hath He his me and made me a polished shaft; in His quiver hath He hid me; 3 And said unto me, Thou art My servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified. 

And when He says, “O Israel,” He’s talking about His people – Jews and Christians.

4 Then I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain; yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God. 

And those of you who have labored and come before the Lord deep into the night in prayer, but hear the Word of the Lord. This is what He’s saying.

5 And now, saith the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him (right, his people), though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord, and my God shall be my strength. 

He’s talking about His people – Jews and Christians. 

6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give thee for a light unto the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the ends of the earth. 7 Thus saith the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, kings shall see and arise, princess shall also worship, because of the Lord that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee. 8 Thus saith the Lord, in an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation I have helped thee, and I will preserve thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages; 9 that thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth, to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places. 10 They shall not hunger or thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them; for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them. 11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. 12 Behold, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and the west; and these from the land of Sinam. 13 Sing, O heavens, and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains; for the Lord has comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. 14 But Zion said, the Lord hath forsaken me, and my God hath forgotten me. 

Moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, intercessors, I know you have felt that way, but the Lord is saying He hasn’t forgotten us. He hasn’t forgotten our prayers and our prayers for the children.

15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. 16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.

You know, another vision He gave me this morning, He said it’s our songs and the songs of worship that have destroyed and brought down the walls of bureaucracy and the walls of the demonic fortresses. And it’s His families and His children that are building up His fortresses, His buildings.

17 They children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made the waste shall go forth of thee. 

So those that have come against the children, those that have come against us that have tried to destroy us and destroy our children. They are going to flee from us and flee from our children.

18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth. 

Now the Lord showed me the lifting up of the children, carrying the children, and He showed me the children shall be carried as if on gold pillows, gold pillows. He’s made like these gold pillows for the children, and it’s like these children are being lifted up on gold pillows, and, uh, He’s saying the fathers and the mothers are carrying the children, and the children are like, uh, when the children on our shoulders, they’ll be like a crown. When the children are in our arms, they’ll be like an ornament, and the children are once again bound back to their families and to their mothers and their fathers and to their grandparents, and no one can snatch them away from us ever again. It’s like Jesus says that He has put us in the hand of the Father, like a pearl, and nothing can snatch us out of the hand of the Father, and Jesus is doing it again. And He’s turning the hearts of the sons back to the fathers and the hearts of the fathers back to the sons. And we’re seeing it happen with the children everywhere. Children are being carried by the parents, and the Lord is saying this is His doing. This is the Isaiah 49 happening.

19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away. 

So what He’s going to do is those evil wicked ones that have been trying to snatch our children, the ones that have gone and snatched children, the ones that are brainwashing our children, their paths have been made so narrow they can never find their way back to our children. It’s over. It’s done. They will be put in the, those evil wicked ones that have come against us and our children, they will be put in the desolate places, and they will not be able to find a path back to the children. It’s over. They will never be able to find a pa, path back to our schools. They will never be able to find a path back to our churches. They will never be able to find a path back to us in our homes.

20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, the place is too straight for me, give place to me that I may dwell. 

So, in other words, if you’ve lost children, if the children, if children that have been lost, the Lord is saying, “I’m making your path straight again. I’m giving you beautiful places to dwell in. “ And you will have more children, and you will have more grandchildren. And if you’re an intercessor or an aunt or an uncle, you are going to be blessed with  your nieces and your nephews. You’re going to be blessed with the children that you’ve prayed for. You will receive blessing.

21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, an removing to and fro? And who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?

I know what it was like praying for a prodigal, and you may have felt like things were lost. You don’t understand why you have prayed for your children for so many years. Your children were raised up in a godly home, and you’re blaming yourself like, “What did I do wrong? Why did my children go astray or go prodigal?” But the Lord is saying, “Do not lament anymore. Do not weep over your children, and do not weep over your adult children, for I, the Lord, am bringing your children back to you,” um hum, “and your grandchildren.” Come on.

22 Thus saith the Lord, behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people.

So the words, the Lord is going to go into those areas, those places where your children and your grandchildren were influenced by the enemy, by worldly ways, and He’s bringing your children out of the eme, enemy influence. He’s bringing your children out of those worldly influences, and He’s putting up a standard, a wall against those worldly influences. He’s putting up a wall against those demonic influences. He’s taking up your children, pulling them up out of those demonic worldly influences, and He’s bringing them back to you, and we will have our children and our grandchildren in our arms. They will be carried upon our shoulders, and they will be blessed. 

And they will be speaking the wisdom of the Lord. They will have the wisdom of the Lord and the blessing of the Lord upon them, and all that demonic influence, all that worldly influence will be completely, it’ll be like God took a wall and removed it away from your children. And they will not be able to go back to those worldly, demonic influences, ever. God will block it from your children and from your children’s children now and forevermore. And we are being rich in experiences with our children and with the Lord and with our grandchildren. Carrying them on our shoulders. Lifting them up. Lifting them up in hugs. It’s going to be so blessed with your children and grandchildren and the Lord and even the little ones and the adult children. Come on. 

22 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers, and they shall bow down to thee with their face towards the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet, and thou shall know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

In other words, those, those leaders, right, those leaders that are called up to government, God will make it their first priority to make sure that they do what the parents say, and they will have to nurture your children and bless your children the way you want it to be done from the Lord. 

In other words, we go to school board meetings, they’ll have to do what the parents say. They’ll literally be our, they’ll, they’ll have to nurture what we do. We will say, “You’re going to do this, this, and this for the children. Bible will be back in school. Prayer will be back in school. Art and music programs back in school,” and they will have to do it. They’ll have to do it. 

22b …and lick the dust of your feet, and they will know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

In other words, we will no longer have shame. We will no longer be shamed by these woke people. They will have to do what we say, led by the righteousness of God. They will have no choice, and if they don’t like it, they got to leave, and they won’t be able to find their way back. We pray for the fear of the Lord to come upon them and to turn from their wicked ways and fall to their knees in repentance because that’s also happening with all of this. 

24 Shall the prey be taken from the captive or the lawful captive delivered?

What does that mean? There has been demonic strongholds that have been coming against our children, the mighty, demonic strongholds, right? In the spirit realm, Jesus called them the strongman, and the strongman has all these demons. And a lot of times when kids go prodigal, there’s that stronghold that’s on them, right? Guess what? The strongman is defeated. God is saying it’s over for our children that have been in captivity, whether they’ve been prodigal or even those children that are actually being brought out of actual captivity, coming out of trafficking, and the children that are being held captive by a woke agenda, you know, I call it a demonic agenda, the Lord is saying right here….shall the prey be taken from the mighty or the lawful captive delivered? God is saying, “I’m getting your children out, and it, it might look like those evil wicked people have had power and those demons have had power, it’s nothing for God, nothing, easy. He’s bringing our children up out of captivity, whether they be prodigal – and even our adult children – and even children that are coming out of actual captivity, children that are actually coming out of trafficking. They’re all being brought out, and the demons are going to scream about their laws, but it’s over!! God’s law rules and reigns, and He’s saving our children. But sa …

25 But thus saith the Lord, even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered, for I, the Lord, will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.

It’s happening.

26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh, and they shall be drunken with their own blood as with sweet wine. And all the flesh shall know that I, the Lord, am thy Savior and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 

Watch and see what happens to these demonic people, led by the demonic. They’re going to be screeching and screaming, but, guess what? It’s only going to be against themselves. They will begin to devour each other. The wicked will begin to devour the wicked until there is none. They will fall down like they are drunk. They will not even be able to speak. It’ll be nothing but gibberish coming out of their mouths. 

It’s over for these wicked people who have come against our children and have tried to make slaves of God’s people. You’re going to see these wicked politicians and these wicked leaders, and, yes, it’ll even be people in the Church, they’ll be falling down. They’ll be like gibberish, like they won’t even be able to speak, um hmm. They’ll begin to devour each other, um hmm, because it’s over for them. 

And they’re going to know who God is because the fear of the Lord is not just coming on America. It’s coming across the world right now, and I pray that everyone comes to their knees in repentance, no matter who it is, and turns from their wicked ways and says, “Lord, I will obey you. I’m sorry for my sins.” And they will come forth and they will reveal the evil wickedness that they have done, and they will reveal where these children are. And they will expose their devices. 

And God is bringing justice. He’s bringing justice for the mothers and the fathers and the grandfathers and the grandmothers. He’s bringing justice for the generations of those who have prayed for the children. He’s bringing justice for the intercessors, and He’s bringing justice for us because the Spirit of the Lord God is coming upon the earth right now. Jesus is saying it’s done, and He is anointing us and anointing the children to proclaim the Good News of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. And this will be children right out of the womb proclaiming the time of the Lord’s favor. They will say it is like a renaissance, but what it really is is revival. 

And I’m going to read Isaiah 61. And this is the timing we’re in, my friends. And I’m going to be obedient to release this word, no matter how long it takes. And, everybody, just pray this along with me:

1 And the spirit of the Lord God is upon me because the Lord hath appointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek. He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all that mourn; 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified. 4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, and the desolations of many generations. 5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. 6 But ye shall be named priests of the Lord; men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the riches of the gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

7 For your shame, you shall have THE DOUBLE, and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore, in their land, they shall possess THE DOUBLE! Everlasting joy shall be unto them. 8 For I, the Lord, love judgment. I hate robbery for burnt offering, and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. 9 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles and their offspring among the people. All that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed. 10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord. My soul shall be joyful in my God, for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation. He hath covered me with the robe of righteousness. As a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with jewels, 11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. 

My friends, I had to bring that word in obedience this morning. Um, wow. So pray on this word. Keep believing on this word. Keep speaking on this word. Decree Isaiah 49 and Is, Isaiah 61 over the children, over your household, over your children and your children’s children. And today, being the 14th, that’s very, very prophetic. Fourteen means generational promises of God fulfilled. There is 14 generations between King David and King Jesus, and the more I think about it, think about 14 generations in your family. Who prayed? Who sowed seeds into the generations to come? Your grandparents, your great grandparents and those before them. 

The Lord is saying those seeds are coming to a goodly harvest for you and your family – generational promises and blessings coming upon you and your children like you’ve never seen before. This is the timing. The enemy did everything he could to hold it back, but he can’t. It’s going to come bursting forth like rivers of living water, like, like Niagra Falls. Nothing will be able to hold it back. This is God! Don’t look to man at all. This is God doing this, and God is saying, “I remember. It has come as a remembrance before me.” All the prayers and the offerings of your ancestors and you, that is going to pour out now upon you and your children.

I am just in awe of God right now. I am in awe of God. Thank You, Father. You have not forgotten us. You are so faithful. We are in expectation of Your glory in our lives and the lives of our children and our children’s children. 

So I want to thank my team and all of you for praying along with me. My team is going to put that word together in its own video along with the scriptures, and I’m going to ask my, uh, my scribe, Gynti Goose Gynpin, to transcribe the word and get it on my site. This is a treasure from Father right from His heart. What incredible times we are living in, my friends, incredible times. 

And, you know, I’m one of those people, and I know many of you, one of those moms, and I know there’s dads and there’s grandparents and intercessors that have gotten up in the night watch on their knees, on their faces, praying, contending at the feet of God for your children, your grandchildren, your adult children, for your families, for the children in the schools, for the children that have been put into trafficking – so many of you. And God is saying today He’s fulfilling out prayers, and it’s going to be greater than we ever asked or thought of. Oh, wow! My heart. 

And we finished that word at 12:12:16. Twelve is the perfect government of God manifested in the earth. The twelve tribes of Israel government with the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ government coming together as one with Jesus Christ at the head. And, um, number 16 means the reckless love of God for us. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that He sent His only Son ….” Come on. And I’m just in awe of God right now. I mean, the anointing is still on my very, very strong. I’m catching my breath here, and, um, I obediently released the word, and I pray you all received it and touch and agree and pray, um, on this and have great hope.

My friends, I had to bring that word in obedience this morning, um, wow, so pray on this word. Keep believing on this word. Keep speaking on this word. 

Prophetic Insight: Canada and Greenland Becoming US States It’s BIBLICAL

Prophetic Insight: Canada and Greenland Becoming US States It’s BIBLICAL

Transcription of the word that the Holy Spirit gave to Annamarie Strawhand, which she delivered during her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on January 8, 2025. 

This prophetic insight came when a viewer asked for an interpretation of the following dream:

Watch the video, and then read the transcript below.

 

ANNAMARIE: This is a dream of change – like money change or there’s something changing? Change, Canada, our calendar, the number 100, she saw the number 99, saw the American flag with 99 on it 99 times, one star at the bottom right-hand corner.

Okay, I want you to understand something. Everything that’s happening with Canada, Greenland, okay, is all about Jesus is expanding the pastures, right? What does the 99 speak of? The 99 speaks of Jesus will leave the 100, or He’ll leave the 99 to search for the one. Right? He leaves the 99 to search for the one, so everything having to do with Canada, everything having to do with Greenland has to do with bigger pastures to bring more people to Jesus. America’s leading the way. 

You see, America’s, America’s mission and prophetic destiny is to bring the Gospel to all the world. That is why America was founded. In 1605, Reverend Robert Hunt landed right here at these very shores of the First Landing here in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with the Jamestown Expedition and planted a cross there. I went back there and prayed and spoke the same words, and he said, “From these very shores shall go forth the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ out to all of the world, and into this land shall go the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and to every generation thereof. 

So, and there was also a prophetic word in 17, uh, 78 to George Washington, President George Washington. He wanted to annex Canada into the United States, and a reverend came to him and said, “Do not annex Canada right now. I have a word from the Lord. God wants to use Canada in the end times.” What? 

So your dream is prophetic confirmation that everything happening with Canada, Greenland – America is expanding her pastures, right, to bring more to Christ, to create more Christian nations because we are in a time where Jesus is riding into the harvest. It’s all about Jesus. 

People say, “Oh, Trump wants to buy Greenland. Trump wants to make Canada a state. Tru…is he, is he some globalist?” NO! He is fulfilling his assignment from God as a descendant of the bloodline of Judah. He is helping to what? Bring all the sheep nations, gathering the sheep nations to prepare for the return of Jesus Christ because Jesus is going to judge the nations when he returns. There’ll be sheep nations, and there’ll be goat nations. Sheep nations are the ones that are Christian nations. Goat nations are the ones that refuse to be, right? 

So Trump is, we’re, this is all about Jesus. This is all about the end-time harvest. This is, this is all about the, you know, leaving the hundred for the ninety-ni, leaving the ninety-nine for the hundred [Sic – meant to say “one”]. Jesus is the breaker. What’s the breaker? He breaks through the gates into the bigger pasture. America is expanding her flock so that Jesus will expand His flock. 

This is all about Jesus. This is all about bringing more souls to Jesus Christ. This is about bringing missions and to come beside Israel in the last days. So this is a fulfillment of prophecy. This is a fulfillment of the word of God. I just put this scripture this morning. 

[Back to the dream] Now, the one star on the bottom right cor, hand corner. Who is the bright morning star? Jesus Christ. So your dream is prophetic. It’s about what’s happening right now. It’s about Jesus. It’s about Jesus using America. And revival is gonna come to Canada and Greenland and Mexico like we’ve never seen before for Jesus Christ. It’s gonna be incredible. 

And why is this? I’ll tell you why. Let me read this to you. I just put it on my Telegram this morning. Matthew 25:32-45: “And before him shall be gathered all nations. He shall separate them one from another.” 

Who goes out and gathers the harvest? Who goes out and gathers the nations? Us! The laborers of the harvest, to present them before Jesus, and he is the one who separates them. 

“…one from another as a shepherd divideth his sheep and the goats, and he shall set the sheep at his right hand but the goats on the left.”

Come on.

“And shall the king say unto them on his right hand, ‘Come ye, blessed of my father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”

The world! The world! The kingdom of God is coming to earth. The earth is our inheritance. Those nations that are become Christian nations will be sheep nations. We will gather together with Jesus, and we’re gonna have our inheritance when he returns. We’re the ones that gather the nations to present before him. 

“For when I was hungered, and you gave me meat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in, naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.”

So this is discipleship. This is us going into these nations as Christians and doing this in an effort to bring people to Christ. 

“Then shall the righteous answer him saying, ‘Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?’”

Like the, the disciples were like, “When did we do this?” Jesus is the spirit of all prophecy. He’s speaking on what is to come in the future. 

“And the King shall answer and say, ‘Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. ‘“

This is why there’s a transference of wealth coming. The wealth of the wicked is being stripped and given to the righteous. President Trump, America will be so wealthy. It’s for the move of the Gospel of Jesus Christ into these nations. We are in a time of harvest. We are gathering the nations. 

And, you know, I love it, uh, Joshua Aaron, he gets it because he’s a Messianic Hebrew, and he has this biblical worldview understanding. And he does a concert every year called “Gather the Nations.” You see, he understands this prophecy is for right now. He understands that Jesus Christ will return one time on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, and we are to gather these nations, right, Jew and Gentile to come together as one in Christ Jesus so that we have to gather these nations together. We are the laborers in the harvest, and what are we to do, right? Present them to Jesus when He returns. 

You see, we are supposed to be going out doing this. President Trump is setting the stage for us to be able to do this. America is gonna finally fulfill her purpose, and Canada’s gonna come beside us, Greenland. It’s gonna be beautiful. And Mexico. Revival in Mexico. Get ready. It’s gonna be incredible. Hallelujah. So it’s the brilliant plan of God. Yes, it’s the brilliant plan of God. 

So anybody that’s going around saying, “Oh, Trump must be a globalist. He must be trying to do the one-world-order. He’s trying to get Canada. He’s trying to get Greenland. He’s trying to get … Check yourself before you wreck yourself, and go to Matthew Chapter 25 and understand the timing we’re in of the great harvest of souls for Jesus Christ. And when America has this un, Greenland under her covering, and America has, uh, Canada under her covering and all these places under her covering, it’s under the covering of the covenant of Almighty God because our nation is in covenant with Almighty God going all the way back to the Mayflower Compact. We’ve got the covering and protection of Jesus Christ, and America will fulfill her destiny of bringing the Gospel to all those places. You understand? And this has always been America’s calling. 

And even that reverend told, uh, President George Washington to wait on annexing Canada for this time! What?! Glory to God! I’m telling you, the Lord said revival in Canada will sweep across Canada that will be incredible for Jesus, incredible. Get ready. Get ready. 

So, Tammy, you had a prophetic dream, darling, of exactly what Jesus is doing right now. The star is Jesus, right? He’s the star. He’s the bright morning star. The heavens declare the glory of God. There’s, the Gospel is in the stars, right? The stars are speaking, not because of astrology. We don’t believe in astrology. The devil twisted that. We believe in God’s astronomy. God speaks in the stars and the timing, and it tells the Gospel of Jesus Christ preparing for His return. Okay? 

And we’re in a timing where Heaven is coming to earth. Jesus is riding into the harvest. It’s time for us to leave the 99 for the one and make sheep nations and gather these sheep nations to present before Jesus Christ. 

Listen, Jesus gotta get His wedding present when He returns. Not just souls but nations! We gotta get to work! And I want to thank God for raising up President Trump to help lead us in this. Okay? We got our part in it – Canadians, Americans, Greenlanders, Mexico. We’re all gonna be doing this together. 

There’s my prophetic word for Canada – Prophetic Word For Canada – Revival Sweeping Across Canada – Angels Of The Lord Are Thundering Across Canada. Hallelujah. 

Somebody asked me earlier, I think it was Phil, what caused, uh, Prime Minister – I call him “Eyebrows”. I’m not trying to be mean, but every time I look at him, I will never forget that day when Trudeau, when he was doing the speech and his eyebrow was falling. It looked like, it looked like a caterpillar crawling down his nose. I was like, “What’s going on with his eyebrows? What?!”

Anyway, Trudeau resigning, uh, I think it was settled when he went and met with President Trump in Mar-A-Lago. He even immediately lost all of his security. I think it was done. Mm hmm, Trudeau! Because they’ve got video of Trudeau going, he didn’t even get to stay at Mar-A-Lago or anything. They got him going to some regular hotel with like one guy for security. I mean, I think it was over then. It was over then. I, I think Trump is hinting to that, to us that Canada is already become a state under the United States of America.

You know, I keep going back to “Nancy Drew” – Kelly Marie Brady. The Lord keeps bringing me back to all those states that have flags, and she kept getting pictures of them. It’s called the, the Confederation of States, whatever. And they kept showing up, and she kept getting pictures of them. And they kept having these meetings, and it goes back to the word I had about the sovereignty of the states. Remember, there was the Esther word that I had. It was the winner of, of the Kentucky Derby, uh, called Medina Spirit, and the word Medina means sovereign city. And it only shows up once in the Book of Esther, Esther Chapter 8:8, where all of the cities, the, the, the Jewish cities, you know, the cities of the peo, people of God are rejoicing and dancing in streets because they’ve become sovereign again. They’ve come out under, you know, the, the, uh, the rule of the evil ones.

And, uh, I asked the Lord about that, and He said, “Watch,” He said Trump is giving the, the power back to the people. Trump and the good military is giving the power back to the people and the sovereignty of the states, and I wonder if Canada wasn’t already included in that way back, like a while ago, you know, because Kelly Marie Brady started seeing all these meetings with the state, the state, uh, she kept seeing it right around, started seeing it right around 2022 a lot. They had lots and lots of meetings, the sovereignty of the states.

And you hear, and another thing that’s been very unusual, that governor of Pennsylvania who’s completely turned, I believe he’s gonna become a Republican. This is about to get really interesting. And I had a word about Esther for Pennsylvania – Divine Reversal. Now, he’s not a very pretty Esther, but the state of vinc, Pennsylvania is a pretty Esther. I’m telling you, it’s gonna get so good, y’all. It’s gonna get so good, and we get to be a part of it in our lifetime and our children too. Glory to God!

Prophetic Confirmation: China, Xi and Trump / Brilliant Plan of God!

Prophetic Confirmation: China, Xi and Trump / Brilliant Plan of God!

Transcription of the word that the Holy Spirit gave to Annamarie Strawhand, which she delivered during her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on November 20, 2023.

Watch the video, and then read the transcript below.

 

ANNAMARIE: [Timestamp 31:22] And let’s remember, this is connected with Space Force as well and military intelligence with Trump. President Xi is helping President Trump to set the trap. 

Now, look at this. Look, every CEO that met with Xi in California just fell into a Trump and Space Force trap! “Oh, hey, you wanna meet with Xi [Inaudible] with China. Oh, let’s see what kind of “money deals” we can make.” They’re so greedy and so evil, you see, they think, “Oh, we’re gonna meet with Xi. We’re gonna meet,” right, “and we’re just going to get more of our pockets lined.” But they don’t realize they just fell into a huge military operation trap.

Pay attention to what CEOs wanted to meet with Xi of China. All of y’all that think, uh, oh, Elon Musk is a good guy, no. Now, could it be that Elon Musk and, uh, the governor of California are working with the good guys now? Could they be actors in masks working with the good guys? Possibly, but my discernment really is no, right now, because you look at the looks on their faces. They’re so excited to meet with Xi because they’re all about money. They don’t care about the people. They don’t care about the land. They care about their own pockets. 

And what is Elon about? He’s about artificial intelligence, okay? What are those evil, wicked politicians and a lot of these evil corporate types – they wanna what? Control the minds of the people. What does Elon make the most money on? What does he make the most money on? Data. Data. Why do you think he wanted to take over Twitter and act like he was a conservative? So he could get your data and sell it. I didn’t fall for it. 

Who’s he selling it to? Chinese corporations. You see the wicked plan they weave? You say, “Oh, they’re selling it to China.” No, they’re not selling it to Xi. They’re not selling it to the government. They’re selling it to the corporations, but they think that Xi is gonna help them out, right, and he’s gonna get that, those corporations and all that stuff in China to do what they want, and it’s gonna be money in their pocket. “You wanna buy my databases? Oh, look you can have mind control over all those, all those, uh, conservative types that are being fooled on Twitter to make them think it’s a conservative place to go. Oh, Elon loves America now. Oh, yeah…” Don’t fall for it! He’s just trying to get the conservative types back on Twitter. Oh, he calls it X. Right? To what? Get your info so he can sell it to people, and then they can track you and control you. Uh uh! 

Keep a very close eye on what CEOs met with Xi – Tim Cook, Elon Musk, right, Apple, Google, right, Facebook, Twitter, AI…all of those, those, uh, technology companies. Who is taking down big tech? Trump! Who’s working with him to take down big tech? Xi. It’s over for these CEOs. 

So back up your information. Get ready because Google, YouTube, all them are gonna be toast. They’re CEO … I mean, they all fell into a trap. I even wrote here, “They are toast!” They’re getting caught selling the United States – our information, our land – to China too, Chinese corporations. They’ll be tried as traitors to this nation. Understand, Xi wants out of the Deep State and went to Trump early and met with him at Mar-A-Lago. Remember? 

Mar-A-Lago is Space Force headquarters. Trump is helping Xi get out of this mess. Okay, so on April 6, 2017, Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives for his first meeting with President Trump for dinner at his Mar-A-Lago estate. Their first encounter before Friday talks. This was way in the beginning. 

Oh, my goodness, this is so amazing and brilliant. The brilliant plan of God. Those evil politicians and CEOs have to pay it all back to America. You remember my “Full Metal Jacket” word back in 2020 and the Lord said AI will be destroyed, that President Trump is like Joshua, the tip of the spear, that Trump and the good guys have created a diversion to fool these evil politicians and these evil CEOs, and they’re gonna go chasing that money and that evil diversion while Trump and the good guys destroy it? 

Mar-A-Lago is Space Force headquarters. There’s the lobby to Mar-A-Lago. That’s a picture of the reception entrance and the reception area. That picture was taken by, uh, Derek Johnson when he went to go meet with President Trump. You will see that, eh, if you notice, the Space Force logo is the tip of the spear – Joshua and the good guys, President Trump.

Where did Xi and Trump meet where they could not be spied on in 2000, it was actually in 2017 and 2016 in Mar-A-Lago. 

Was, what was the FBI really after when they raided Mar-A-Lago? They are so scared. Why? Because the Deep State – these evil, wicked politicians that are controlled by what? Chinese Corporations and American Corporations – were scared. All this information was there on them there. 

The Deep State and their Chinese payday and their wallets are now empty, and they fell into a trap. It’s over.

Remember the prophetic word that I had about California, that it would try to be a last stronghold, but God said, “NO!” 

Thank You, God, for showing me that picture with the fake military guy with his hands in the pockets, his pockets to remind me of the prophetic word about Newsom and that Newsom had his hands in his pockets protecting his wallet. God brings it all together. Glory to God.

Any CEO that met with Xi and the setup sting in California is toast. They all fell for it! They went out the front gate. Isn’t San Francisco known as a gate? 

Read the Book of Joshua and the Battle of Ai! God told Joshua to fool them, create a diversion, so they all ran out the front gate. Then, go in when they’re not paying attention, destroy it all. Then, kill all their leaders, and stack them up at the gate. San Francisco is a gate – a golden gate city. 

This was all done by Trump and the good guys. The same battle plan the Lord told me that he was giving President Trump, the same battle plan to take down artificial intelligence and big tech that he gave Joshua at the Battle of Ai. Go back and read the prophetic word. And we, the people, are gonna get all the plunder, all the blessings for it. Come on! 

I keep telling everyone that Musk it not a good guy. Apple, Google, Blackrock, they’re all toast. 

Proverbs 26:27 (AMP) – “Whoever digs a pit for another man’s feet with fall into it, and he who rolls a stone uphill to do mischief, it will come back on him.” This is how it all connects to the Word of God.

Here’s the Passion translation of the Proverbs 26:27, which is so good. “Go ahead, set a trap for others.” In other words, Trump and Xi are saying, “You want to set a trap for the people of America? You want to try to set a trap for Trump and the good guys? Guess what? Watch how it snaps back on you and starts a landslide, and you, you evil, wicked, vile, greedy, disgusting politicians and corporations, you’ll be the one who gets crushed!”

This is why Trump keeps using the word “landslide”. They’re gonna get crushed. Not a landslide for voting, by this brilliant plan that God is working through President Trump. Yes, because the enemy will be crushed in this landslide. Those American and Chinese corporations – it’s the corporations that sold us out – and the politicians getting kickbacks. What as Newsom guarding his back pockets? His wallet, the Lord said.

They were selling our land and our cities and even selling our information. They wanted to crush us, but it is they, IT IS THEY that will be crushed. We, the people, shall have restitution and even more because the Lord told us in this shaking there will be gold, and the gold shall be for the people.

My team was like, “Wow, I never saw that.” Like, they didn’t notice the hands in the pocket of Newsom, but God did and He told me.

Gynti says, “Wow, such incredible revelations.” She has always felt that Xi was good and working with Trump. “It seems like we are so very close to the end of this operation.” 

Yeah, we’re getting close. And I said, “Yes, if you go back to the meeting with Xi early on in 2017 with Trump at Mar-A-Lago and you watch Trump and Xi together, you will see they are allies and Xi capitulated to Trump. In other words, bowed to him, right? He said, “Hm, I’m going to bow to you. I will become part of your plan. Help me out here. Help get me and my country out of this.” Trump said, “Okay, let’s work together.”

You will see how Trump worked to expose the evil Chinese corporations. Xi capitulated to Trump. In other words, bowed to him, right? He said, “Hm, I’m going to bow to you. I will become part of your plan. Help me out here. Help me get me and my country out of this.” Trump said, “Okay, let’s work together.”

You will see how Trump worked to expose the evil Chinese corporations, and Xi helped [Inaudible].

Then to expose the US Corporations and politicians that were getting paid off by the Chinese corporations – all these corporations and these CEOs, my friends.

Yes, it’s amazing to see how all of these things are tied together and are converging now.

So, Xi was working to do the same thing in his country like President Trump has been doing here because being controlled by the corporations, and the evil CEOs and the wicked politicians that are getting paid by these CEOs.

Who wants to run and control the world? The CEOs! God is destroying them. It’s the Battle of Ai, my friends, of Joshua again. 

God told us in a prophetic word that every evil corporation will be removed, so all the CEOs that were named on that list that met with Xi this week in California just fell into a trap. Yeah, military trap. And any of them that are involved in child trafficking, OOOoohhhh! That’s why we need to prepare for Google and Apple and all that stuff to shut down. It’ll be taken over by Space Force, the good guys.

Remember when Trump’s granddaughter sang a song in Chinese to Xi and his wife. Remember when Melania visited all the children in China. She was sending a message that she knows those corporations are selling children too.  It’s disgusting!

They are in deep trouble. They are more than traitors; they’re child sex traffickers. 

The Trumps were showing us what was going on the entire time. Those children were in those Chinese tanker ships. Remember? 

It’s the corporations that are doing it. It’s the corporations that use those ships. Who’s getting the kickbacks? The evil politicians. 

Xi doesn’t want it in his country, and Trump doesn’t want it in his. And the good military are working to take this down. 

And these actors that are in masks that are around, uh, fake Biden are US Marshals working with military intelligence because US Marshals specialize in taking down child traffickers. Military intelligence takes down traitors. They’re working together.

Thank you, God, for President Trump and Xi being good men that God could use in this time. 

Gynti says, “Yes, I saw a post recently of the number of CEO resignations this year so far. It was a very large number.”

Plus all those Chinese corporations shutting down. Well, it’s about to get bigger and even American corporations that are involved in this. 

Trump and Xi and Space Force are working together. 

Get ready for revival in California for Jesus Christ like never before and revival in China for Jesus Christ like never before. This is all God.

Now, let’s go back to the inauguration of President Donald J. Trump. In 2017, Trump showed us that the good guys would show up wearing these caps. 

Military intelligence cap braid is the blue and judge advocate general is the black. When you see President Trump wearing a blue tie, it represents military intelligence operation that he’s involved in. 

I thought he was wearing a blue tie for Israel, but the Lord reminded me it’s actually to confirm, right, the military intelligence operation that Trump is under as CIC, Commander In Chief. So when I see Trump wearing a blue tie, I know that is connected to what he’s doing. 

Then I see Trump with the black and white striped tie. All right, that is connected to the judge advocate generals. And what they do is they actually do the military tribunal trials against these people, and they’re the one, you know, they call the JAC, all right. 

So, if you look at the colors on their, uh, their caps, when President Trump said these words, it was in the first three minutes of President Trump’s speech, uh, at his inauguration in 2017, all of these military intelligence officers from every branch of the military – these were the good guys that are working with Trump – Trump said these words, “On this day, we are giving the power back to you, the people.” 

What that was was a declaration of war against the Deep State, the evil corporations, and the evil politicians with these military intelligence and advocate generals standing behind him, and it was the start of the undercover military operation working with President Trump. And it’s still going on. And when you see these men show up with these bands on their hats, you know it’s a military intelligence operation. 

Here’s a post I found that can help you, uh, from we fight on: You are right, during his inauguration, Trump stated he was returning power back to the people, basically canceling the corporation, nullifying the president’s role over to that corporation. 

America was a corporation. President Trump bankrupted that corporation and turned it back into a republic. Thus, President Trump is still the Commander In Chief of the republic. All right? Everything that’s going on in the old government is a sting operation. They have no power. Anything that Biden signed, whatever, is worthless.

Are they allowing some of these things to happen? Yes, what? To wake up the people. There still is an awakening process for the people, and President Trump is giving us clues, the military’s giving us clues, they’re making it very obvious that Biden is an actor and is wearing a mask, so what? The people wake up because there has to be an awakening process in all of this. 

As part of that, first time ever, military steps forward and surrounds Trump. One side was military intelligence – gathers evidence. On the other side is judge advocate general – presides over military tribunal.

Who was at the airport that day with Xi? The blue and yellow hat band, military intelligence operation and Space Force was also there. 

Now, this is the insignia for Space Force. Right? Notice the tip of the spear, which connects to Trump and the Book of Joshua, okay, destroying AI, artificial intelligence and any evil technology, and it’s inside of a hexagon.

I’ve taught you all many, many times the hexagon is key. Biblically, a hexagon represents the inside of the star of King David. It represents the key of David, the government of David, which represents Jesus Christ. If you add up and connect mathematically – because our God is a mathematical God – uh, the hexagon adds up to the number 222, which means key. 

So, 444 is door; 222 is key, right. Isaiah 22:22 – “The key to the government is on his shoulder (Jesus Christ). Whatever doors he shuts, no man can open. Whatever doors he opens, no man can shut.  

Everything with the good military is a Space Force operation through Trump. Look at their insignia patch. It’s a hexagon. I’ve had many prophetic words on hexagons and the 222 key, all right?

So the man wearing the Space Force patch on his shoulder also had a hat band of military intelligence. 

I mean, these CEOs and these greedy politicians in California, they fell into a military intelligence trap. 

Space Force is the one in charge of this sting operation in California that just happened on the 17th.

January 20, 2017, okay, that goes back to President Trump saying, “I’m giving back the power back to you, the people.” He had the military intelligence standing behind him. They showed up there, military intelligence showed up there that day on the 17th of November, 2023, just this last week. Boom, there they are! 

These wicked politicians and these evil CEOs just all fell into a military intelligence trap in California. 

Look for the military intelligence (JAG) hat ribbon and look for the Space Force emblem and the hexagons, and you will know it’s the good guys working for Trump and us, the people.

Where else did we see the hexagons? Melania Trump’s dress. Do you remember when Melania Trump and President Trump returned back to Florida after they left the White House to go back to Florida and Melania Trump got off the plane, and she was wearing a dress with bright orange hexagons on it?

And I said it’s a key, Melania is … because I know biblically that the hexagon means key, and I knew biblically, uh, that Melania Trump was showing us that her and President Trump still have the keys, they still have the keys. They’re still in charge. They still hold all the keys. And I had a prophetic word on February 5, 2021, “Prophetic Signs in February: 222 Is A Key And A Marker.” 

Melania Trump’s dress is a clue with the hexagon. And they were pointing to Space Force. They were going back to Mar-A-Lago, uh, and back to the Space Force headquarters, uh, and, to continue working on this huge military sting operation, that President Trump was still Commander In Chief. They still have the keys. They still have the nuclear football. All of this is through Trump and Melania particularly, and both of them, for the children and also, uh, right, to destroy the evil.

Melania’s dress with the hexagons was pointing to the keys that CIC Trump still has with Space Force. I’ll have to get a picture of that dress. Maybe my team can pull up a picture of Melania’s dress that day. 

You see how it’s all connected? Trump has been telling us. Melania’s been telling us. You must go to the Holy Spirit, right, and He will reveal to you. That Trump still has the keys. He’s still CIC. It’s all through Space Force, headquartered in Mar-A-Lago.  These are all confirmations of our prophetic words. Okay, and you can go back through our prophetic words and read them and get confirmation, and it’s just incredible what the Lord has been showing us. And, um, definitely, I do want to talk about this and get your, uh, in, you know, your, um, what your thoughts are on this, and just remember, this is all revelation of the Holy Spirit confirming our prophetic words. 

And we’re gonna pray. We’re gonna pray about this sting operation. We’re gonna pray for Space Force. We’re gonna pray for President Trump. We’re gonna pray for the US Marshals. We’re gonna pray for President Xi. We’re gonna pray for China, and, uh, for the works of Jesus Christ to go forth, uh, of the kingdom and glory of God in China like never before. And, uh, my friends, this is incredible. [Timestamp: 56:50]

Is There A Difference Between Being Saved And Born Again?

Is There A Difference Between Being Saved And Born Again?

This is a transcription of an excerpt of the Life in the Faith Lane broadcast on November 15, 2023, where Annamarie Strawhand answered questions from viewers. A viewer asked the following question: “Coach Annamarie, when it comes to being on social media and someone is down and depressed, and we are trying to encourage her but she keeps saying, ‘Yes, but I understand, but…,’ what do I say to her?”

Watch the video and read the transcript below for her response.

 

ANNAMARIE: You stop, and you go into your prayer closet, and you ask the Holy Spirit to go to her. You see, you can sit there and tell somebody and tell somebody and tell somebody and tell somebody till you’re blue in the face, right? You keep speaking it. You keep speaking it, right, but if they’re not receiving it, then you go into your prayer closet and you ask the Holy Spirit to go to them and reveal it to them, lift the veils, drop the scales, and the Holy Spirit revealed to them. You pray for them to have an encounter with Christ.

Now, you can keep encouraging them in the process, right? You can keep loving them and encouraging them in the process, right, asking the Lord to take those little seeds that you’ve sown into them, ask the Holy Spirit to water them, right? But just, right now, all right, don’t frustrate yourself because you’re not their Savior, Jesus is. You’re there to sew the little seeds, right, okay, and intercede for them.

So, sew the seeds of encouragement. Sew a little seed, ask the Holy Spirit what to say to them. Sew that little seed, ask him to water it. Then, go in your prayer closet and stand in the gap for them. Intercede for them. Invite the Holy Spirit to go to them and speak to them because the Holy Spirit could do more with them in one day that would take you a year. He’s got to be the one to re make them realize it. He’s got to be the one to take the scales off their eyes and lift the veils, so just keep sewing those little seeds of kindness and love and encouragement, all right?

Ask the Holy Spirit to water those seeds. You’re doing your part, okay? Continue to speak and prophesy over them and pray for them and intercede for them, okay, and then ask the Holy Spirit to go to them.

What does the Holy Spirit do? His job is to point them to Jesus and give them an encounter with Jesus to, so they realize their true identity in Christ, okay? We have a lot of Christians a lot of people that say they’re Christians and received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. They are saved, right? They’re saved. They’ve got salvation. They’re going to heaven. They’re saved from hell, but they were never truly born again. They never received of what? The spirit of the Living God. They never received of what? That born again, uh, spirit into their spirit, okay?

So, a lot of people say to me is it, what’s the difference between being born again and salvation? There’s actually is a difference. Jesus was very clear. Jesus was very clear that being born again is, is different than salvation. Um, let me pull this up real quick.

So, there are people that are Christians, but they’re, they’re miserable. Why? Because they can’t see the kingdom. They can’t see their purpose for the kingdom. That means they’re not really born again. The difference between saved and born again – you can accept Jesus and go to church as a child, but that does not mean you have to, you have been born again. You are saved from hell, and you will go to heaven, but if you are not showing signs in your life that you are born again in Christ, in your spirit, your spirit must be born again. When your spirit is born again, your, your life shows direct signs of this. You have a hope of living for Christ and fulfilling all things through Christ.

So if a person is a Christian, they say they’re a Christian but they’re miserable, they’re dealing with depression, and they can’t see it. They can’t, they can’t see the hope of their glory. They can’t see the kingdom. They can’t, right, they, that means their Spirit man is not operating in the born again of the kingdom. You must ask to be born again in Christ. It’s a simple prayer. It’s a confirmation of asking to be born again of the spirit in Christ Jesus.

You must desire to be new and transformed, so what you, how you pray for this girl is you say, “Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, go to her and encounter her, and put the desire in her heart to be transformed.”

You see, if the desire in their heart to be transformed, and the desire in their heart to be a new creation in Christ isn’t there, they’re not really born again. They’ve received Jesus Christ. They’re saved. They’re going to heaven, but their spirit is lacking, right, and they must desire to be transformed, okay?

So, Jesus explains this in John 3:21, 3:1- 21. Three is the complete Father, Son, Holy Spirit. One is the one true God. Twenty-one is the Manifest presence of God, the Living God that lives within us. Jesus says in John 3:1-21 you must be born again.

“Now, there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, ‘Rabbi we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.’”

So he believed in Jesus Christ as a man of God. He was a Believer.

“Jesus answered him, ‘Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

What?! What?! Listen to me, unless Nicodemus believed in Jesus, he was a believer, got a lot of believers out there, right? They believe – believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be what? Saved. You’re saved from hell. You’re going to heaven, but are you born again? Did you receive the power of the Living God, Jesus Christ, into your spirit man to make you completely new, to desire that transformation?

So, unless that person is truly born again, they cannot see the Kingdom, right? Their spirit is not transformed. It’s not there yet, or it, it never was, so they have no hope. They can’t see the kingdom. They can’t see the kingdom of God. They can’t see the hope of the glory of the kingdom of God in the earth. They believe Jesus is the Son of God. They believe in him. They’re, they’re saved. They’re not going to hell.

You see, the kingdom of God is for us in the earth, unless where our spirit man is born again and there is actual evidence and signs of our spirit desiring the things of the Kingdom, we’re not really totally born again.

So, somebody that you’re, she’s a Christian, you’re encouraging her, you’re encouraging, you’re encouraging her.She’s not seeing it. She’s still depressed. She’s, she like, she still has no hope. She cannot see the hope of the glory. She cannot see the kingdom. She believes in Jesus. She knows, but her spirit man is not connecting because she’s not truly born again. Pray for her to have that desire to be transformed, okay?

“Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

She can’t see it, just can’t see it because her spirit man is not capable. It’s not born again.

“How can a man be born when he is old?” This is what Nicodemus is saying. “How could he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born? Jesus answered again, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh: and what is born of the spirit is spirit.”

So, people that are not, they could get baptized – born of the water. See, people, the church misses this. They miss it.They go, “Oh, you’re saved.” See, churches are all about salvation, salvation, salvation, salvation, don’t go to hell; don’t go to hell; salvation.”

But they’re, they’re, they’re forgetting about the born again. They’re forgetting about the kingdom part where people actually have evidence of complete transformation in their lives, and they want to be transformed, and they want the kingdom, and they desire the kingdom, and they operate in the Kingdom.  Or they’re like, “Oh, I got baptized, so I’m born again.”

That’s, that’s just half of it, right? The big part is that your spirit receives of it, and if your spirit is closed off, it doesn’t receive it, and there’s no desire there for the kingdom, there’s no desire to be transformed, there’s no desire – you can’t what? See the Kingdom.

So, you’re not really born again, and you need to lead that person again through repentance, right, and that they say with their mouth, “Lord Jesus, I desire my spirit to be born again and be transformed so I can see the kingdom.”

Listen to me, “That is of the flesh, is the flesh, which is born of the spirit, is the spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, you must be born again. The wind blows where it wishes, and what you hear is sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone that is born of the spirit.”

In other words, they’re people that really hear from the Holy Spirit. They’re born again. They’re born of the spirit.They’re receiving. They’re desiring. They’re desiring to be transformed. They’re desiring to be of the Kingdom, okay? There’s evidence of that in their life, but if they can’t see the kingdom, it means their spirit man has not been fully reborn.

Jesus is very clear here. They’re still operating from the flesh, not the spirit, okay? They’re saved. They’re going to heaven. They’ve been saved from hell. And see, this is why the kingdom age is coming. We’re coming out of this church age where churches and the religious establishments has all been about about salvation, salvation, salvation – make sure you don’t go hell – but they’re not teaching anybody the kingdom. They’re not teaching anybody to be of the kingdom, to do all the things that Jesus did, to do, desire to be that, to be transformed into full kingdom with Jesus Christ. This is all shifting. This is all changing, okay? You understand?

So huge difference, and if this person, as a Christian, she knows it, but she can’t see it she’s not truly born again. And you can pray this prayer over her. I’m getting ready to put this up on my website. Saved and born again are two different completely [Sic] things. Jesus is clear, right, call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.

Well, you’re saved from the fires of hell, right? You’re, you’re, you will go to heaven, but to be born again, you, to be able to see the kingdom in the earth operate in the kingdom, be completely and fully transformed in Christ here on the earth, Jesus has got to overtake your spirit. And you’ve got to want that, and you’ve got to want to be, right, you’ve got to completely submit your spirit to Christ and not operate out of the flesh.

And those people that are not fully, truly born again, they can’t see kingdom, they can’t see any hope. They can’t see … You see, it’s completely different, and the church has got to start teaching people kingdom and getting people to desire the kingdom. It’s more than just dunking in the water, right? It doesn’t automatically hit you. You’ve gotta desire it. You’ve gotta want it. You’ve gotta receive of it. See? All right?

And, um, you know, you see Christians walking around; they’re Christians; they’re believers; they’re saved; they’re going to heaven, but they have no hope. They’re walking around like, “Oh, just so terrible,” and you’re like, “But we have Jesus, but we have the kingdom but, we have God, but we have the Holy Spirit.” They’re like, “I know, I know.” But they can’t see it, and the fruit of their life doesn’t show anything of that.

It’s because they’re not taught this. It’s all about this religious stuff of the church. They’re all about, “Oh, we had a thousand salvations.” We had, then there, then, now what? “We had a thousand salvations. We had a thousand baptisms,” but is anybody helping them be fully born again and they’re transformed in the spirit and desire, and teaching them kingdom and how to walk in the spirit, how to operate in the spirit? No, what  do they do? They, they go to dusty churches after that, that just sits there and teaches rapture doctrine every weekend, doesn’t teach them how to operate in the kingdom. Doesn’t teach them how to walk around and do the things of Christ. That’s the difference.

So, if you’re trying to lead somebody out of depression that’s a Christian, that says they know, lead them into this born again prayer, or pray for them, right, for the Holy Spirit to go to them and start to work on their spirit and King Jesus to work on their spirit to bring that desire in them to want to see the kingdom because you can’t see it unless you’re born again. You just can’t. Jesus said it. You’re still operating out of the flesh, and you’re going to still be walking around depressed and miserable.

Okay, so, um, “In this, the born again, because they’re born of God, the children of God are manifest and the ch, and the children of the devil; whoever shall do the righteousness is not, not righteousness is not of God, neither that he loveth his brother.”

So, what happens in this is those who truly carry Christ in his righteousness and the kingdom of God is within them, they see it; they realize it; they know the hope and glory. Why do you think the Pharisees could not see it, other than Nicodemus? Nicodemus desired it. The Pharisees didn’t.

You see, the religious spirit doesn’t desire the born again. Oh well, you’re saved; you’re going to heaven. That’s great, well, but you’re still walking around miserable depressed because nobody’s teaching kingdom.

Now, here’s a prayer; I’m going to put this on my website because the Lord just revealed this to me last, over the last couple of days. Here you go. A lot of people think being saved and being born again are the same thing.

Saved means you’re not going to hell. You’re redeemed. You, right, call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. You’re, you’re safe from the fires of hell.

Being born again is being able to see the kingdom while you’re alive on earth and operating in the kingdom and desiring it and the kingdom of God working within you in your spirit, okay?

Do you know, don’t you know a lot of people that are believers in Jesus Christ, they’re saved, even been baptized in water, but they’re walking around miserable with no hope? Because they can’t see the kingdom. They’re not really born again all the way. They have to have that desire.

And, right now, Jesus, I believe right now in the Holy Spirit because we’re coming into a transformative time in the, in the world, okay, is shaking people awake and up out of this religious blindness and awakening the spirits of the people to desire this fully because we’re coming into a time very swiftly where we are going to be walking around doing all the things of Jesus Christ – full kingdom, fully born again. Jesus was the first of the born again, understand?

Um, the Church is focused more on getting saved and thinking it was the same thing as born again. Born again is really when you see and realize the kingdom of God within you.

Many Christians are not operating as born again, which is full kingdom. And, oh, her eyes can only be opened if you ask the Holy Spirit and King Jesus to go to her, encounter her, um, and awaken her spirit to desire this fully.

You can lead her through this prayer or you can, you can speak this prayer over her. Um, your spirit must be born again. When your spirit is born again, your life shows direct signs of this, of hope in living it for Christ and fulfilling all things through Christ.

You must ask to be born again in Christ. This is more than just the salvation. It’s a simple prayer. It’s a confirmation to be born again of the spirit in Christ Jesus. You must desire to be new and transformed. If you are still living from the flesh and you have no hope and purpose for the kingdom, you are still operating from the flesh and not the spirit because you can’t see the kingdom, according to John 3.

This is what you declare, “Lord Jesus Christ, I desire to to be born again in my spirit. I command my spirit to receive Jesus Christ and be completely new and transformed in Christ. I want all of you, Lord Jesus, to come inside my heart, mind, and spirit and be a new creation in Christ. Thank you, Jesus.” According to John 3:1-21

Now, the religious spirit isn’t going to like this. Too bad. Can you pray this over yourself? Can you pray this over other people? Absolutely. The Lord just gave me this revelation. And, uh, I’ll put this teaching up on my site this afternoon, and I will have, uh, my team send it out to you with this decree. Um, I have more notes to … I didn’t put it up the other, I didn’t put it up yesterday because I still have more notes, and, uh, with this, and, um, I encourage you all to really soak this in. Think about it. Jesus said you’ll know it by its fruit.

Why are the Christians that have salvation, they’re not going to hell, baptized in water, but they’re walking around miserable. And you sit there and tell them, “Be happy. It’s great.” Right? “Come on, let’s go on mission work together [Sound effects meaning, etc].” “[Moaning]” Why? Because they’re not truly born again. They’re operating from the flesh. They’re not operating from the spirit. They’re not really transformed of the spirit. They can’t see the kingdom. They can’t see it. They can’t see it. They can’t see it.

How do we get them to see? We ask the Holy Spirit to bring that desire in them, right, put a desire in them. Because they were taught the wrong doctrine. They’re like, “Oh, okay, I’m saved. I’m good. I’m good. I’m saved. I’m good. I’m not going to hell.”

What about the rest of it? Are you out doing the work of the kingdom? Are you really a transformed creation? Are you, if you’re not, then you’re not really born again. You’re saved. We want kingdom here! Jesus wants full kingdom. How about you?

Uh, Acts 6:29-31 “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, you and your household.”

So you can, you’ll have salvation. You’re not going to hell, and your household is saved when you’re a believer, but to be born again, to see the kingdom, to do the things of the kingdom, to come out of depression, you must be born again a – transformation into the image of Christ in your life and don’t want to desire it.

The Holy Spirit, when you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit begins to start a work in you, right, but you have to desire it. You have to want it, and when you’ve got people praying for you and saying, “Holy Spirit, bring them. Shake them. Bring them into the desire of being fully born again and coming out of the ways of the flesh.”

You see, that’s why it says that it’s a sharp sword that separates the soul from the spirit, because that person that’s still walking around in misery, “blah blah blah,” they’re Christian. They believe. They’re gonna get, they’re not going to hell, but they’re still operating from their flesh, from their soul, from their wounds, from their [Sound effect], right? They’re, they’re not operating from the spirit, and the Holy Spirit’s saying, “Come on, let’s get born again. You must desire this. I want you to see the Kingdom.”

So many people can’t see it, and it, it frustrates me, and I know It frustrated Jesus because He was like, “I’m right in front of you. Do you not see it?” The kingdom of God is within you, but the Pharisees, right, they couldn’t see. They couldn’t see, but Nicodemus desired it, so Jesus gave him this secret. He gave him. You desire, you have a desire, Nicodemus. You have a desire. You want it, right? You gotta desire to want to be like Jesus. You gotta desire to, to see the kingdom, want to operate in the kingdom.

It’s beautiful. That’s why people are just tired of the old dusty churches. They’re, they’re done with all that. People desire kingdom. We’re in that time. The earth is what? Birthing. The earth is shaking and birthing the sons of God, right, the ones who really desire that born-again-nature of the kingdom coming into this time, not walking around from sitting in our dusty pews waiting to be beamed out of here.

No, the Lord is, is, is awakening us to our born-again-nature to be doing the, the things of Christ and desiring it, and the earth is birthing us. Hallelujah! So, yes, there’s a difference.

“Coach,” she’s still walking around depressed, and she does want to be kingdom, and she have [Sic] asked so many times. Well, this prayer’s for you, and there could be things in your soul that are blocking it, right, wounds in your soul.

Why does Jesus clearly say you prosper in health as your soul prospereth? The, the, the scripture says that because if your soul is riddled with wounds still and offense and stuff like that, um, what happens is it’ll, it’ll block your spirit man even though you have that deep desire. That, those soul wounds can, can throw up blocks all the time. That’s why I tell you get your soul healed.

Can, you know, demonic, uh, spirits block this? Yeah, I mean, of course. You know, can Christians have demons? Sure, you know, but after you prayed for that person and they’ve gotten delivered and you rebuke the spirit of death, you rebuke the spirit of backwardness off them, you rebuke all those spirits, right, and they renounce all of them, they still have to have the desire to see the kingdom. There’s a lot of people that have been delivered by [Sic] evil spirits.

Listen to me. There’s a lot of people people that have been delivered by [Sic] evil spirits, but they still don’t see the kingdom, they’re still not fully operating in their kingdom purpose for Jesus. Delivering them of evil spirits, uh, delivering them from a spirit of death, delivering them of a spirit of backwardness, delivering them from all those things are, are important. Yes, okay? Helping them get their soul healed is important, but they also have to have a desire to want to be transformed to see the kingdom.

How many people do you know, “I’ve been delivered of this. I’ve been delivered of that. I’ve been delivered.” They’re going to deliverance ministries every week. They’re going to every conference on the East Coast to the West Coast to the North Coast to the South Coast for deliverance, deliverance, deliverance, deliverance.

They’ve been, they, they’re a Christian that’s been delivered of everything you can imagine, but are they operating in the kingdom? Are they fulfilling their ministry? Are they out sharing the hope and the glory? Can they see the kingdom, right? You could be delivered of every single demon, you could be delivered of everything. You get your soul healed, but you still have to what? Desire that full born again and, whooooo, want the kingdom, upgrade in the kingdom,  preach the Kingdom, operating in your kingdom purpose with boldness, fully alive in Christ.

So if you’re asking for this and you’re still not seeing it, it’s because there’s stuff in your soul blocking it, and you really got to want it. You got, there could be fear. A lot of people have fear, a spirit of fear. The spirit of fear blocks us.

The spirit of – listen, the two worst ones to block us from seeing full kingdom and operating in our full kingdom authority and going out and doing the works of Jesus Christ and being fully born again of the kingdom, the two things that block us the worst are fear and religion, fear of man. Because religion puts in the fear of man like, “Oh, if I start going out there being bold for Jesus and doing the things of Jesus full kingdom, people might think stuff of me, people might say stuff of me.”

So get that fear of man, rebuke the fear of man, renounce the fear of man, renounce all fear, and say, “I want full kingdom, and I will be fearless. I don’t care what man says.” Because the religious spirit says, “Oh, you better, oh, keep it down. Oh, you know, don’t be laying hands on people and healing them. Oh no.”

I don’t care, right, because I’ve been delivered of the fear of man. I don’t care what people say. I’m suited up every day. But you gotta desire to be more like Jesus even in public way more than what people would say. “Oh, I can’t do this unless my husband supports me. I can’t do this unless …” Right?

Who cares? You do what Jesus called you to do, right? You’re, you’re not of the fear of man whatsoever, and when you are full kingdom, you are an example to others and you start encouraging others to go that way.

So, fear will hold you back the worst. Religious beliefs will hold you back the worst. “Oh, women can’t preach. Women can’t … Oh, what?” That’s a religious lie. Why did Paul say that? It was those women specifically in that church because they were still doing idolatry, and he didn’t want their idolatry influencing the rest of the church.

Jesus wants women to preach. Women are going to be used greatly in the end days, so break off of those old religious beliefs. Break off all that fear. Rebuke it, and don’t be going to a hundred million deliverances, you know, like chasing down every deliverance conference, and look for the kingdom. Focus on kingdom. Who’s teaching kingdom? Who’s teaching how to lay hands on people and heal? Who’s teaching how to, people how to do the works of Jesus Christ?

You be the one doing deliverances. That’s when, “Oh, I desire that,” right? “I want to be in the image of Christ. I want to be of the Kingdom. I want to be the walking kingdom.” And then you’re fully born again.

You know, there’s gonna be people that say stuff to me. I don’t care anymore. I really don’t. I’m suited up. I’ve got the Lord. People gotta know this stuff.

The Tomato (marriage) Story – True Love Is Who Gets To Pick the First Garden Tomato…

The Tomato (marriage) Story – True Love Is Who Gets To Pick the First Garden Tomato…

The Tomato (marriage) Story – True Love Is Who Gets To Pick the First Garden Tomato…

My husband Michael loves a good fresh home grown tomato sandwich. It brings him back to the days of his childhood. Those balmy summer days in the early 1960’s in the back country of southern Virginia, helping his Granny and Papaw at the old Murphy’s Store at Creeds Corners. In the summers while helping his grandparents at the old store, Little Mikey would run out to the garden between the store and his granny’s house to pick a fresh ripe garden tomato, walking through the garden with just a salt shaker. His bare feet running through the warm freshly raked up soil, shading his eyes with one hand, scanning for red popping through green leaves. Then reaching in to pick a ripe tomato right off the vine. He could barely wait to bite into its warm juicy goodness. Once and a while he would find an over-ripe ‘mater’ (that’s southern for tomato) that fell to the ground and starting to rot – and he would pick those up and throw them in the barn paddock out back because Granny could not sell those. The goats and Billy Boy the pony would eat them right up. He would bring a few other ripe for slicing tomatoes into the store and Granny would make him a sandwich with fresh bologna cut from the store’s little meat counter. He would pair that with a cold coca cola in the glass bottle with a pack of salted peanuts poured in. These were some of the best memories a boy could ever have!

Murphy’s Store at Creeds Virginia – Michael’s Granny and Papaw, Helen and Floyd Murphy ran the store for 50 years.

When we were first dating in the 1990’s, Michael took me out to Creeds to meet his Granny and Papaw. They had retired from the running the old country store and Granny was still making him fresh garden tomato sandwiches. She made me one too. I loved those times of visiting them there at their house in Creeds, Virginia, (which is now our home today). To say that these first fresh home grown tomatoes on a sandwich are Mikey’s favorite in the whole wide world is an understatement. Mikey LOVES home grown ‘maters, especially that FIRST ONE of the season.

 

Michael and I on our wedding day, we were married on April 22, 2000 in Iron Station, NC

 

When Michael and I were married in the year 2000, we lived in North Carolina, in a small town north of Charlotte called Iron Station. We had a little rental house on a three acre lot. Now all grown up Big Mikey wanted to plant his very own first garden and grow fresh tomatoes like his Granny. The soil in North Carolina is a hard red clay, but Big Mikey was strong and determined to get tomato plants to grow. That spring Michael worked and worked a plot of red clay for days. He was like an Ox to the plow – breaking up the hard soil, digging, hoeing, raking, adding lime and fertilizer until he felt it was ready to plant. Then he carefully picked out his tomato plants and a few cucumber and peppers, and also some squash and zucchini plants for me at a local home improvement store. As newlyweds we proceeded to plant this beautifully prepared garden in hopeful expectation of our first harvest.

At that time early in our marriage, Michael was working in his own plumbing business and I was working at home doing some marketing consulting for NASCAR and helping Michael with his business office work. We were also trying to have our first baby. I had gotten off the road of traveling the NASCAR circuit to stay home and work by phone and email and in those days ‘Faximile’ ….. while Michael was building his plumbing business. I would be in the house busy with my work when Michael would pull in the driveway every evening. I would hear our two Chesapeake Bay Retriever dogs bark when he came home and sometimes he would throw the ball around for them for a while, so I did not realize he was actually walking over to the garden to deeply inspect it before he came in the house. What he was inspecting each and every day when he came home from work, was a teeny tiny first tomato that was beginning to grow on one of his plants.

Now as newlyweds everything is so peachy you know, huggy-kissy lovey-dovey when your husband comes home from work and you want to be a good wife. I was not much of a cook back then but I did the best I could. We were trying to pay the bills and a part of me was distracted as we both were working hard to keep money coming in – because my job was at home my phone was always ringing and many times I would make a meal at lunch time and have some ready to have for Big Mikey when he came in hungry that evening. This was our early marriage life. We were starting out life together and we thought we could finish each other’s sentences, read each other’s minds or we assumed so! Michael never mentioned to me about the tomato growing in the garden that he was so intently watching. I never even thought to ask about it.

As the summer weeks went by, every evening as soon as he pulled in the driveway Michael would get out of his pickup truck and immediately repeat his inspection of the garden, and every day that tomato would get a little bigger. He was intently waiting for it to come to full fruition, how long before it would be ready to pick, he wanted to make sure it was picked at the perfect time – and he was expectant to be the one to do it. Big Mikey could not wait for that moment, that he could come home from work and that would be the day he could pick his very first home-grown tomato, that he grew himself, and proudly bring it in the house and make his very first sandwich with it. That night the tomato was now big and turning red, looking perfect, almost ready to pick. It would just be a matter of days Mikey thought to himself and he could do the honors of picking, slicing and eating his first tomato. Oh the excitement, oh the expectation!

Again, lil ‘ol wifey (me) in the house was still completely oblivious to my beloved husband’s intentions for this very special first tomato…

That next afternoon while Michael was at work, I was busy at home with my own work and very hungry at lunchtime. I glanced out the window and wondered if there was anything in the garden I could pick for a quick lunch. I walked out back and looked around. Zucchinis were still too small, squash was small too and the peppers and cucumbers were still in the flowering stage. I walked around the garden and something caught my eye, one red, ripe tomato.

“Yes!” I said to myself. “This is perfect. I can have a tomato sandwich and save the rest for Big Mikey when he gets home.”

First Ripe Tomato
First Ripe Tomato

I quickly plucked the tomato, yes THE TOMATO, the one Mikey was intently checking and waiting on each and every day. It was nice, ripe and warm in my hand and I trotted happily back into the house with my two chessie dogs in tow. It was a very hot day and they needed to come in and get cool. However, the day was about to get hotter, and I don’t mean degrees, LOL.

I happily brought the tomato into my kitchen, washed it up and put it on a plate to slice it. I sliced half and made myself a sandwich and set the other half aside for Michael to have when he got home.

I thought to myself: “Michael will be so excited to see there is a tomato ready for him to eat from our garden and make a sandwich with tonight.”

I ate my sandwich and went back to work. As the sun began to set, I knew Mikey would be home soon and I let our chessie dogs, Ginny and Herschel back outside to wait for their dad to come home.

I went back to my work of faxes and calls in my little home office and heard the dogs barking – announcing Michael was home from work and in the driveway. “Still some daylight,” I thought. “He will throw the ball for the dogs for a bit before he came in for a sandwich.”

Well, that was not the case. Mikey did exactly like he had been doing for the last two months when he came home from work. Jumping out of his pickup truck and immediately walking over to the garden to inspect his harvest, particularly his tomato.

He began to walk closer to the garden, he did not see the red peeking through the green to greet him as he had the last two days before. Something was not right. He walked closer, went directly to the plant were the ripening tomato had been. There were other green tomatoes, but his first red and ripening tomato, the one he had been watching every single day…. IT WAS GONE.

Michael stopped in his tracks, looked all around the garden, then around the property. “Could a racoon or somethin’ come sneakin’ in here and stole his tomato?” He pondered.

He stopped and knelt down to look under the plants, maybe it had fell off and rolled. Nope.

Now, what could have happened to his precious first tomato?

He marched into the house, I was working in my office and jumped up to greet him with a hug and a kiss. No hug, no kiss…. I looked at his face – it was red and he was looking at me with his furrowed brow.

“What’s wrong Honey?” I asked.

“What happened to my tomato?” He announced shortly.

I looked at him blankly. “Your tomato?”

“Yes! My tomato! Did you pick my tomato? Did you?” His 6’5″ frame glared over my 5’3″ as I looked up at him wide eyed. I had a feeling I was in a pickle here.

“Ummm, well I did go out to the garden today at lunch to see if anything had ripened and I found a ripe tomato so I picked it and sliced it up for us, I made a sandwich and there is half of the tomato all sliced up and ready for you.” I explained sweetly.

Flashes of the “I Love Lucy” show came into my mind of how Lucy felt when her husband Ricky Riccardo would come home and she had some “splainin’ to do!

Big Mikey did not find this humorous or nostaligic and Ethel was not going to come in the door and help me in taking part of the blame here. I looked at our two Chessie dogs wagging their tails waiting for dad to pet them and they were not much help in this situation, Big Mikey was looking at me for what seemed like an hour just glaring, ignoring the dogs vyying for his attention. (Remind me next time I get two dogs to name them Fred and Ethel, or maybe Betty and Barney, or maybe Perry Mason and Della Reese I might have needed a good lawyer here. Ha.)

Then he threw up his hands. “You ruined it!”

I ruined it? I could not understand all the fuss over a tomato.

“Yep!” He exclaimed. “You ruined the whole thing. I don’t want no dang sliced up tomato!”

I was perplexed. I could not say a word. I just stood there. I had never seen my husband so upset.

He paced the room in front of the door, I wanted to go into the kitchen and take the plate of the sliced tomato and try to state my case that my intentions were good for him, but he was not having it.

“You don’t understand….” He had a sadness in his voice. “I waited all these years to plant my first garden. I wanted to have that first tomato because it reminded me of when I was a kid, happy times in my granny’s garden. I worked so hard and wanted to make that first tomato special. I was so proud of growing that tomato. I wanted to make that very moment of picking my first home grown tomato, and taking it into the house myself and making that first slice and sandwich – now it’s all ruined.”

My lip started to tremble and tears welled up in my eyes. My heart sank. I felt horrible. How could I have not known this? My big sweet Hubby with his big sweet heart! This was not about the tomato. This was about ‘who’ he was as a person. It was his nostalgia. Memories of his childhood were connected to that one tomato. It was more than a tomato, it was a legacy he was trying to continue and wanted that moment of victory. He looked at it as his ‘Victory Garden” and that first tomato was the prize!

“Oh Honey, I am so sorry! Please forgive me!” I reached out to hug him.

He leaned up against the door jam, shaking his head at the ceiling and with a groan, he hugged me back, I could smell the sweat and dirt on him from working at his plumbing on the construction sites all day. I loved that smell of my hard working man. He deserved to be blessed by his first tomato. I realized in that moment, I needed to be a better wife, and more than that a better friend. I needed to really ‘get to know’ the true heart of my husband. “I forgive ya.” He said with a slight huff. “But don’t ever do that again, ask me about these things, first allright?” “Allright.” I replied, and hugged him tighter.

Maybe I could have got angry back at him, maybe I could have got defensive and said to him; “Well you should have told me how you felt about the garden and the tomato when you planted it! You should have communicated better! I did not know, don’t get mad at me for picking the tomato when you should have explained all this to me before.”

But I did not say all that in that moment.

Shoulda coulda woulda….. God was teaching us something about marriage.

I would realize later it was one of the most important lessons we ever had.

Who is your husband? Who is your wife? What shaped them into who they are today. What is precious to them? Do you understand why certain things are important to them. These were questions I had to research and get understanding about the man I married. I did not realize how important this was until this very moment.

Marriage is not about working jobs, saving money and making sure food is on the table and hoping you will have a good retirement some day then you can talk and rest on the front porch or in a condo in Florida.

Marriage is a Victory Garden to be lovingly tended to daily. Jesus said that God looks at Marriage as His Masterpiece. God wanted to walk in the Garden with Adam and Eve in the cool of the day and talk with them. It was their set aside time that God, Adam and Eve and God looked forward to every day. We enter God’s rest in His presence. We should be at rest in our marriage, because it’s our happy place to be in each other’s presence, fellowshipping.

The first garden for Michael and I should have been our treasure together. We should have been going out to that garden together every day in expectation of the first tomato together. Not just Michael. This works both ways in a marriage, as Michael did the same for me with the things that were important to me.

I realized then that was a lesson also preparing us to be good parents to our child that we had been praying for our first year of marriage. We had to treasure our child together, dote on her together, share in the care, share in the expectation of growth and victories in her life. Both of us.

Marriage is loving each other’s legacy and making it your own. It’s not what is mine and what is his – it’s what is ours. Then your hope is to love the other person’s heart so much you never want to hurt it. That means getting your head out of your own stuff and taking the time to ‘walk in the garden’ with the ones you love. God made it that way. That’s how true relationships flourish, that’s how abundant harvests come for marriages and families. Great blessings come from great relationships.

Recently I was telling the “Tomato Story” at a family dinner with Me, Big Mikey and our now 18 year old daughter and her sweet boyfriend, Cory. We were all laughing at the story, even Big Mikey. I was glad we could laugh at it, now!

I was glad I had this lesson to teach our own daughter, for her own marriage. This is wisdom that must be passed on to the next generation.

Fixin a 'mater sandwich
Mike fixing his sandwich with the first tomato from his garden.

Now 20+ years into marriage, Big Mikey planted another garden. He planted tomatoes of course. Together we walk out to the garden and check the plants. We both get excited to watch the first tomato turn red. I cheer on Mikey and his tomato!

Out of tradition now, Michael picks the first tomato, brings it into the house, and I take a picture of him proudly slicing his first tomato. Our love is stronger than ever, but only strengthened by these important lessons along the way!

Big Mikey (my hubby) now living in Creeds, Virginia (we inherited Granny and Papaw’s house in 2008) Happily slicing his first home grown garden tomato. “Fixin’ to make that first tomato sandwich!” July 2020.

This story shared with love to all of you! I hope it blessed you! Here is a picture of Big Mikey, slicing his first garden tomato of the year 2020 – here in his granny’s old kitchen, now our kitchen. God is GOOD and so was this tomato – Mikey had him a big ‘ol tomato sandwich with Miracle whip of course – them I got the other half of the tomato with Dukes Mayo on mine (well you have to have some things that make you different from each other – that’s what brings the fun!)

Love you all and remember to LIVE LIFE LARGE,
