Participant
Last night, Thursday 4th, during a short group impromptu prayer time that focused on current and vital issues in America, 2 short visions were received
I share them here, but I’ve been unable to use graphics to help with the content.
Vision 1 Seesaw (Thur 4th)
I saw a wooden seesaw
It was weighed down on the right side by men in “silhouette form” (men dressed in black) , holding 3 things in their hands
Unrighteousness \ injustice \ lies
These 3 things seemed to be winning, weighing the nation down… the weight held the opposite (left side) … up in the air.
Then I saw again, the same seesaw but it now looked different.
From the left side, God now took a step and placed one foot, one boot of God standing on the left side, holding it, weighing it down
Also that represented that side as being weighed down by 3 things.
Righteousness / justice / truth
The side that was previously weighed down with/by unrighteousness \ lies \ injustice
was now …up in the air … with nowhere to go. Because it was weighed down by God’s characteristics, weight and focus and not mans.
No matter how much they tried, they, the right hand side, could not move, or budge one iota the left side weighed down by God. His Foot, Boot of righteousness / justice / truth.
Neither could they move, alter or shift from their ‘up in the air’ place.
Boot in scripture represents battle, boot of a warrior in battle. Reflective of a firm, bold stance.
But earlier today, Friday 5th. It’s noted that Veronica West posted, on FB, a video, of a dream she had Thursday night. Of the Lion of Judah on the stairs of The Supreme Court.
A WORD FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA; THE LION OF JUDAH ON THE STAIRS OF THE SUPREME COURT…!“LISTEN! THE ROAR OF HIS…
Posted by Veronika West on Friday, October 5, 2018
In her dream she vividly outlines how The Lion of Judah with roars and the attendance of archangels send forth Righteousness, Justice and Truth … offering confirmation, and scope for further prayer.
Following the 1st Seesaw vision was a 2nd short vision … called “conjoined”
Conjoined: Thur eve 4th.
I saw the outline of the USA with all its states in different colours and state boundaries marked out.
And I heard …How can two walk together unless they agree
This is from Amos 3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
As I looked at the coloured blocks of states I thought … they are not in agreement…, they are all individual and not cohesive.
And the thought that darkness loves to keep it this way … because it causes/fosters division.
I then saw 2 neighbouring states, that seemed to have one common boundary line –
And down the length of the join of that common line … I saw God drawing His line along on top.
Only that it was drawn in fire and where the fire touched the common boundary line … it turned to … molten red lava… this had the effect of welding, sealing the boundary line, melding what was two, into one
For example the common boundary line one a map, between say Colorado and Utah (SW USA)
But then, as a result of His action, one could see the central common boundary line had disappeared all together – resulting in the 2 states becoming one.
And Utah/Colorado would turn all pink or all brown using the example of the states colour on a map… the colour I actually saw the two states meld into, in the vision was, the colour red.
They were now one … but really they were the same 2 but walking in agreement.
And I saw this happening again, in various other parts of the USA with other states that were neighbours.
UNTIL
there were more pairs of conjoined states than there was the sum total of the separate, individual ones combined.
The conjoined ones were all in agreement with each other.
My thoughts, suggested, this might well be, a healthy thing and that it would determine that the total number of conjoined states – Had the majority over those states that were still individual
.
50 states … as I’m from the UK, I think that means at the very least … 13 pairs need be conjoined to represent any majority.
… both pictures – seem to be Gods response – that came out of the ascending prayers during the end time of that meeting.
Which no doubt also bears the weight of many other groups and individuals elsewhere, that have yearned for Gods intervention
Each state has 2 senators…so there is a dynamic internally to each state as well, that will determine any leaning, result.
The question is … Is the introduction of the conjoining aspects of the States, to be seen as characteristic of voting patterns! If so what vote is being represented and if so, where, if so when?
Today as I write, it is Friday 5th … and we only now see the result of an initial vote.
Which is one regarding Judge Kavanaugh and the Supreme Court nomination.The result as being 51- 49 in favour of the proposal going through to a final vote . There is tomorrow’s (Saturday) vote to come.
Veronika’s dream, is situated on the stairs of the Supreme Court, before any vote was taken. The understood common factors between the dream and mini visions were the announcing, highlighting of Righteousness, Justice and Truth, with … that were to be instigated from there. There is a need to gain understanding.
So it is Saturday … the concluding vote will be known here after 2030 here in the UK
Whatever transpires …or when. For it seems that some form of representation, with the inclusion of a numerical process. Is brought into the timeline. For the Lion of Judah has shown what He purposes, whether it be sooner in His time and/or later.
The following comes to mind. May He who begun a good work, perfect it
Shall I bring to the point of birth and not give delivery?” says the Lord. “Or shall I who gives delivery shut the womb?” says your God.
This morning while contemplating the fallen state of man as it relates to this 3rd dimensional world, the following Words were spoken: “LAW AND ORDER IN EVERYTHING”.  VISION: Seeing people in an expansive and very dark place. Suddenly at the top of this scene an area brightens up. A hole in the fabric of this darkness begins to open up wider and a brilliant white light appears.
INTERPRETATION:
As New Covenant, Born-again, Believers we are no longer subjected to legalistic laws nor to the laws of this world. Instead we live by grace and its associative spiritual laws that are engraved by the Holy Spirit and the Word in one’s heart and mind. By living this way, we no longer activate the law of cause and effect that is associated with darkness. And this is the Light which is Christ which is GOD that is breaking through the darkness of the hardened human heart and slothful carnal mind. This is the hope, the understanding that is emerging for many who are still enslaved by the dissensions, debaucheries, evils, immoralities, and wickedness of this fallen world. And this is the Light that will bring order into countless lives and into everything. This time-limited dispensation of undeserved benevolence is made available for all who seek to know Him and believe in GOD’s plan of redemption through His Son Jesus Christ.
Whoever you are and whatever negative situation you are in, do not despair. There is more than hope in Jesus Christ. There is Light, Life, Love and Freedom for you and for all who abide in Him.
RELATED VERSES:
“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh. That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. “ (Rom. 8:1-8)
“Be indebted to no one, except to one another in love, for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law. The commandments “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and any other commandments, are summed up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law. And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night (darkness) is nearly over; the day (light) has drawn near. So let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.” (Rom. 8:11)
“We love because he first loved us.” (1 Jn. 4:19)
Keep your Heart Soft and Keep the Faith in His Finished Works.

Therefore get wisdom.
And in all your getting, get understanding.

By Lana Vawser 
Recently I had an encounter with the Lord where He showed me an assignment of the enemy that is about to be released into the body of Christ in the United States of America regarding the US election that is about to take place in a little over a month. 


Before I share this encounter with you, I want to state this and make it clear that since I felt the Lord speak of Donald Trump in this encounter, firstly I am not releasing this word from any “political standpoint” of reviewing any policies or agendas. I am simply releasing this word from an encounter that I had with the Lord and felt a strong urgency to release it.  


Secondly considering the video released yesterday from 2005, I want to say firstly that the Lord DOES NOT condone sin, and by releasing this encounter I am not condoning Donald’s past actions, but felt an urgency to publish this encounter as a warning to the body of Christ.  
As I pondered this encounter in light of yesterday’s video, I felt a stirring from the Lord to not focus on the past but what God is saying TODAY in THIS SEASON right now. 


I was standing in what looked like a “commission room” in hell and so much darkness around. I saw the enemy and he was about to release a horde of demons upon the earth into the United States with a specific target against believers. 

 
What I noticed about these demonic spirits was that they had blindfolds in their hands and they were ready to “move”. 

 
I asked Jesus what these demonic spirits were and he said that they were “spirits of deception”. 


I then heard… “My people that are not pressing in for discernment, to hear My heart concerning the US election and who I have anointed for the next Presidential Term, will be brought to a place right now in this season where they will be blinded by deception. This army that is about to be released into the body of Christ in the USA are coming to blind people to the truth that I have anointed Donald Trump and Mike Pence and the people of God need to hear this so that they keep pressing in for discernment despite what the media and the ‘natural world’ says. Things are going to continue to escalate and pressure intensify to push Donald Trump out, but My people need to take their place and stand with Me to see My purposes come to fruition.” 
The sense surrounded me that this is a very strategic moment, a time of urgency and a time to pray even more fervently. The sense of ‘laying down agenda(s) and simply seeking the heart of God for this new season for the nation of America that is approaching.  
I felt this reminder from the Lord to His people in the USA to be praying for discernment right now and to lift their eyes up higher. Place not your eyes on ‘media’ or the ‘natural’ but really continue seeking His heart. I felt such a strong sense of an ‘increase in onslaught’ in this US election in this “last leg”, and God’s people are going to need eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit is saying more than ever before.  


As I have sat with the Lord on this word, I have felt the Lord’s heart for His people to not get “caught up” in what is going on in the “natural”.  
The very heart of this word ultimately was I felt a call from the Lord for His people to “come up higher”. To not be bound up by what is being reported or what is not being reported. The fate of a nation does not hang on MAN, it’s in the hand of the Lord and the ONUS is on the Church right now.  
I believe Jesus is calling His people in light of everything going on in this messy situation in the USA with Clinton and Trump, to seek His heart above ALL ELSE.
Put your hope in Jesus. To cry out for the Lord to bring a cleansing and a turning in this nation. To really individually continue to seek out the heart of God and ask the Spirit of God to give eye salve so there may be clear spiritual sight regarding this election and the destiny of the USA. 


“Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see” ~ Revelation 3:18 


This is not just about Donald Trump/Mike Pence, this is about the destiny and the fate of the United States of America. The Lord sees BEYOND today, and it’s time to really seek His heart and His ways.  
 
This is really a time of repentance for America and calling forth the plans and purposes of God in the nation and a surrendering of agendas to align with His ways, even when we don’t understand. It’s time to stand in the gap more than ever before for a move of God in the nation. I felt that this is a very strategic moment right now, the fate and destiny of the nation hangs in the balance.

Love gives. Loves goes the extra mile. Love endures.
That love is not always reciprocated.
As Christ followers, we strive to give love from a pure heart that doesn’t require a person to love us perfectly in return. We intentionally allow God to be our source of perfect love, and we relinquish the right to demand it from others. In obedience to God and His Word, we set our hearts on being patient and kind. We commit to modeling Jesus’ sacrificial love. But sometimes the person we give our love to consistently betrays and wounds us. How do we give 1 Corinthians 13 love in that situation?
Kuddos to Debbie McDaniel for her insight in "How to Protect Yourself from these 10 Toxic People." McDaniel wisely suggests we set boundaries and limit the control an unhealthy person might be placing on our life. She also notes when "we look deep into the mirror of our souls, we may realize that we are the ones who have some unhealthy tendencies that God wants to change."

Exposing Dysfunctional Patterns

I’ve got a really strong mercy streak. For decades, I’ve looked for the best in everyone. I pursued relationships with very emotionally unhealthy people. I was sure God loved them and I could, too, but I had no idea how to employ boundaries. I gave love no matter how much pain was delivered to me in return. I was too timid to speak the truth in love.
I lived with a desperate fear of confrontation. My rational thinking dropped into a coma if I sensed any threat of an explosive reaction. Eventually resentment wrestled mercy to the ground. Wounded and exhausted, I would just walk away from the relationship.
That is how I handled my first marriage. Years later, I was very close to repeating the pattern in my second marriage.
A major crisis in our marriage led me to intense Bible study and prayer counseling. God exposed many of my own toxic relationship patterns. I was addicted to the approval of others. I was a great blamer and gossiper. If there had been a contest for arrogant victims, I would have won the crown.
I once was blind, but now I see.

Restoration is God’s Work

Pride kept me from seeing these things about myself. It also kept me focused on how the “other person” needed to change so I could be ok. With amazing grace, God revealed the truth for the purpose of restoring me to wholeness.
He sent His Word and healed me and delivered me from self-destruction. (Psalm 107:20, my paraphrase)
God offers healing and freedom to everyone.
He is waiting to transform the lives of everyone leaking nuclear emotions and throwing verbal grenades. The controller, the abuser, and the too-easily angered are not immune to the power of God’s Word. We are promised that nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37, Mark 10:27). There is hope for the bully, the addict, and the one whose mind is stuck in a negative gear. The blamer, the gossiper, the arrogant, and the victim are all offered fresh doses of mercy from God each and every day.
God created those who hurt us. He has a good plan for their lives. He knows the “why” behind their destructive behaviors. He knows the lies they believe about themselves. He knows what stands in the way of their wholeness. He is a Shepherd who pursues every sheep that wanders away from all He offers.

Partnering with God

We are temples of God’s Holy Spirit, empowered by Him to believe in what we cannot yet see. We are vessels of His mercy, His wisdom, and His Word. His mighty power is at work within us to accomplish infinitely more than we can ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20).
We do not wrestle against flesh and blood (Ephesians 6:12).
There is a dark force of evil behind every lethal personality disorder and self-defensive coping mechanism. Every casualty in a relationship war has fallen prey to the one who steals, kills, and destroys.
The great news is... God has far more power than Satan. The God of angel armies makes us ready for battle with His truth, salvation, faith, righteousness, peace, and the sword—the Word of God. His banner of victory flies over us. When we arm ourselves and pray, we salute His authority and partner with His plan for the family of God.
What would delight our God more than for us to turn our minds away from the problems and focus on Him? He is our solution.
Praising God is a powerful first line of defense. We can worship and adore Him, our wonderful counselor and supreme relationship expert.
Holy God. You are full of mercy and compassion, slow to anger and full of love. No one can measure Your greatness. You open your hand to satisfy the needs of everyone.
You protected Daniel in the lion’s den. You provided an ark before the flood. You create streams in deserts. No situation is too dire for You. Everything is possible because You are the Creator and Redeemer.
You love imperfect people extravagantly. Your perfect love drives out fear.
You are mighty to save!
We can choose to live prayerfully and humbly before God. He can help us love those who do not love us well with a pure heart.
Father, I may be blind to my own role in toxic relationships. Help me see the truth about myself. Apply the healing power of Your Word to my heart and mind. Deliver me from any stronghold that causes me to harm people with my words and actions. Save me from self-destructive patterns.
I struggle in my relationship with ______. I need You to give me wisdom on how to love ____ well. You are my shield and defender. Show me how, when and where to erect boundaries in our relationship. I believe You are my healer and I trust You to guard my heart and mind.
I need Your specific directions on how to interact with ______.
I want to love _____ with a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. (1 Timothy 1:5)
Help me to love ______ courageously. Fill me with Your truth and compel me to fearlessly tell the truth with love. Let Your perfect love cast out all of my fears related to our relationship.
I forgive ______ for hurting me. I ask You to forgive me for _______ and _______. I acknowledge my emotions: _______, _________, and _______. And I invite You to steady my heart so my emotions do not rule my decisions
I surrender what I think our relationship should be. Please transform it so that it honors You.
In Jesus, I pray. Amen
The toxic person in your life may feel like an enemy. That is certainly how Satan wants you to feel about your husband, your family member, your church leader, etc. But remember the real culprit is Satan.
God has given us clear instructions to bless those who curse us and pray for the people who mistreat us (Luke 6:27–28). Jesus modeled this pure love for us on the cross, and when He washed Judas’ feet knowing he was going to betray Him.
Praying for your enemy is like training for the Christian Olympics. The stakes are high. The requirements are intense. But the reward is far greater than any gold medal. Your prayer can be used by God in a person’s life, their family, and the generations after them.
Use this prayer prompt to launch an ongoing conversation with God on behalf of the toxic person in your life.
God, I acknowledge You as _______’s provider. Thank You for providing all ______ needs to live in peace and harmony with me and others.
Your Word is alive and a gift of healing to ______. I invite You to fill _____’s life with It. Let It be a salve to _____’s wounds. Use it to set ______ free from the snare of the enemy.
You are the Good Shepherd. Please rescue _______ from paths of destruction.
You are the Wonderful Counselor. Break down the walls in _____’s heart and mind with Your battering ram of revelation. Give ____ spiritual wisdom and insight to know You. Flood ______’s heart with Your light.
Where _____ has endured shame, pour double portions of honor into _____’s life.
Your Holy Spirit intercedes for _____ 24/7. Use me to do the same and raise up an army of intercessors on _______’s behalf. Let heaven and earth work in tandem to deliver ____ from evil.
Make _____ ready to hear me and others speak Your truth in love. Help ____ to experience Your love and Your presence.
You are the One who can enable _____ to hunger for Your Word and obey Your commands. Let that be so for ________.
With faith in Jesus, I pray. Amen
