THIS IS A EXCERPT FROM MY BOOK WINDS OF MEGIDDO
The Sound of the Trumpet 2015
The announcement America had waited for?
What would Trump do as President? “I would do various things very quickly,” he says. Crush the Islamic State. Beat China. Build a “great wall” on the southern border and send the bill to Mexico. Is this even possible? Does it matter?
One of the newsmen began to say that he was a racist and he would destroy America. I remember hearing his speech where he proclaimed his entrance into the race for President. I had looked at all the men that had placed their name on the Republication ballot and when I heard that he was running I instantly felt like this was the man that I would back but I also had thought about backing Senator Cruz. Later that day as I was looking on face book, I came across an article that was posted by a Florida Pastor and written by a senator in Florida that defamed Donald Trump and brought up all of his past. After reading the article that the pastor had placed, I read his remarks and was shocked. Later when I looked at the article again, I noted that the minister that had placed the article on his page was trying to stop people from backing Donald Trump. As a matter of fact, he had left a negative reply. I was shocked that a minister that I knew that had himself been forgiven of so much would appear to be unforgiving about another’s past. So, I replied to the article on how in the past before I came to Christ that I was guilty of all of the things that they had accused Donald Trump of. The next day I noted that I was no longer friends on face book with this minister. As time went by I also began to notice that the news media and many Democrats, as well as Republicans, were really trying to destroy him, but it appeared that the more that they did to hurt him, the more that people began to take notice of his running for president. Because of the onslaught of hatred and allegations, I began to check out the statements that were being made against him. Whenever I would hear a bad report on TV regarding something that had been made against Trump, I would go to you tube and listen to the alleged report. Then I would listen to the speech made by Trump that the media had quoted him from. Shocked at what I found by all the false reports I began an attempt to discover why this man was being attacked in the manner that he was by politicians and the news media. I had for many years heard about Donald Trump and his often-quoted words that he used on his TV series.” You are fired.” I had always heard well of him but now everyone had turned against him. First, I found that he had in the past been a Democrat and had changed parties later in life. Well so had I when I learned to read. Then I made a discovery. While searching on you tube, I saw a video of a CBN broadcast where a fireman was being interviewed by telephonic communication. The fireman related that God had spoken to him and told him that he had chosen Donald Trump to be president and that he would shake the world with the changes that he would perform. I began to follow in my Brother Bob’s path. Bob had been a news reporter in Washington DC who stood against the crooked politicians in Congress who promised the world but never delivered on their promise.
One day while Pastor Dee was reminiscing about what was happening in the world arena, he suddenly thought about what David had told him regarding the build up in the Middle East. Then he made a sudden discovery. Around the time that David had messaged him about being on Cyprus and seeing the huge armada of ships, Donald Trump had just won the nomination for president.
Both events turned out to have occurred at the same time. Was this a coincidence or not? Was the dream that David had an actual event? Had God altered the timing of this battle in Megiddo?
And so, I began to do research on the possibility of a prophecy that I had heard where God had spoken and said he was going to allow a reprieve for the world. For some months I thought it was in the fireman’s prophecy but later I found out that it was not part of his prophecy. I searched again and finally I found that the statement had been made in another prophecy regarding Donald Trump. So, was it possible that God had granted a reprieve in his final judgment? Did this reprieve allow for more time which David and the world needed? Was David also being given a reprieve at a time when God was about to eradicate those nations that would defy him and seek to destroy his people. So as time continued to move did the winds stop blowing for awhile as they do in a hurricane when the eye moves over the area? When we look around, we notice that the world under Trump does not seem to have a desire to change as the people continue to sink deeper and deeper into immorality. Think about this as the clocks tick away because the prophecy was made about Donald Trump and Israel is coming to fruition. The Spirit of God says I will protect America and Israel, for this next President will be a man of his word. So, was his prophecy accurate? If one had observed what happened when Donald Trump campaigned, they would have noticed that when he would attend a meeting thousands of people would stand in lines and wait for hours just to hear his speech. One would also notice that seldom did the news media televise the huge crowds that were present. The crowds that were attending his campaign meetings should have made them aware that the common man and the Christians were coming out of their lairs to see if this was a man that would toss the robes of a lying politician and do what he promised that he would do. A taxi driver related to her customer that she felt Donald Trump is anointed by God,” This Uber driver confided as to why she had Trump/Pence stickers on her rear bumper. It was the day before the presidential election and she was asked because she was a decorous, middle-aged black woman. “Well,” she’d begun, “I’m a Christian and I’m very much against abortion, and I don’t approve of same-s*x marriage either. I have never understood why a woman would desire to kill her baby or to marry the same s*x. And, Mr. Trump has said he’ll appoint Supreme Court justices who agree.” He doesn’t have to be a Christian to be part of God’s plan. Our minister says he’s come to tear down the corrupt order just as Nebuchadnezzar did.” And just as the pagan Nebuchadnezzar had the prophet, Daniel, to counsel him, “Mr. Trump has godly men around him. Let me ask you something does your whole congregation believe this, and who are they? “Oh yes,” she said. “We all do. And we’re multicultural, too. Black and white and Hispanic. Although,” she added, “There are also many who believe that Mr. Trump is not Nebuchadnezzar but a Cyrus.” Nebuchadnezzar, had destroyed the first temple in Jerusalem, forcing the Jews into the Babylonian captivity. Cyrus, the pagan Persian king who was called “the Great”, had conquered Babylon in 539 BC, freed the Jews, and returned them to Jerusalem where they would rebuild the temple. So, is God using Donald Trump?
2 Kings used to perform God’s will
Cyrus might not have been one of God’s people, the thinking among some Christians goes, but he still served God’s plans. Every since Donald Trump won the election for President of the United States, Christians have been pointing to the book of Isaiah and comparing Trump with the ancient Persian King Cyrus. Some have even claimed that God has revealed to them that He will use Trump for the good of America just as He used Cyrus for the good of the Jewish people, even though Cyrus was a "pagan" king. He is mentioned in a majestic passage in Isaiah where the Lord says of Cyrus, "'He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my desire'; and he declares to Jerusalem, 'You shall be built,' and to the temple, 'Your foundation shall be laid'" (Is. 44:28). In other words, Cyrus would be the one who would cause Jerusalem to be rebuilt after it had been destroyed decades earlier by the Babylonians. But there's more that Isaiah says about Cyrus as the prophecy continues into chapter 45: "Thus says the Lord to Cyrus, His anointed, whose right hand I have held—to subdue nations before him and to loosen the loins of kings, to open doors before him so that the gates will not be shut: I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and shatter the bars of iron. And I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places so that you may know that I, the Lord, who calls you by your name, am the God of Israel. For Jacob My servant's sake and Israel My chosen one, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known me'" (Is. 45:1-4). Notice the beginning and the end of this passage. First, Cyrus, a non-Israelite king, is called God's anointed, a term elsewhere only used for Israelite leaders. Second, Cyrus, although called by the God of Israel, doesn't actually know the God of Israel. Instead, like the vast majority of people in the ancient world, he worshipped different deities in the form of idols. In fulfillment of this prophecy, the Scriptures record how Cyrus made this decree to the Jewish people living in Babylon, where they had been taken in exile: "The LORD [meaning Yahweh] God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and He has commanded me to build for Him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever is among you of all His people, may the LORD [Yahweh] his God be with him. Let him go up" (2 Chr. 36:23). So, a pagan king encouraged the Jewish people to return to their homeland and rebuild their temple, also helping to finance the endeavor. But Cyrus did not only do this for the people of Israel. This became a standard Persian policy, allowing exiles to return to their homelands and rebuild their temples as subjects of the Persian Empire. Could Donald Trump, then, be a modern-day Cyrus? Could it be that Trump, like Cyrus, clearly does not know the Lord in a real and personal way but could still be used by God to accomplish His purposes? As the saying goes, let God be God, meaning, it's up to Him to do what He wants to do. Only He can answer this question for sure. Or, from a more secular perspective, only time will tell. There was another ancient king named Nebuchadnezzar, the Babylonian leader who, decades before Cyrus became king, led his armies to destroy Jerusalem, burn down the temple and send the Jewish people into exile in 586 B.C. He too was an idol worshipper, yet shockingly, Yahweh called him "My servant," stating plainly, "I will send and take all the families of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land [meaning Judah] and its inhabitants, and against all these surrounding nations; I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, a hissing, and perpetual desolations" (Jer. 25:9; see also 27:6; 43:10). So, Cyrus was anointed by God to restore the Jewish people from captivity and to rebuild Jerusalem after Nebuchadnezzar, as a vessel of divine judgment, was called by God to send the Jewish people into exile and to destroy Jerusalem. Two pagan kings, one raised up to bring judgment and the other raised up to bring restoration. In the year of his campaign, Trump was described by a variety of religious supporters as “the last Trumpet” who would galvanize the second coming of Christ, and a modern King David, as well as Nebuchadnezzar. Most often, however, he was recognized as “Cyrus” the King who allowed the Jews to rebuild their temple.
The Final Trump?
On November the 8th I stayed up very late in
the evening watching the news reports as they came in regarding the election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Around midnight with the full results of the election not in I decided to go to bed and get up early in the morning to find out the final results. Around 05:00 am I awakened to find out that Donald was elected as the 45th USA president. I had expected this to occur because of the prophecy that I had heard and the confirmation given to me by the Spirit when I heard the fireman give it on CBN. Later I was able to listen to his victory speech where he said
"I pledge to be president for all Americans," "We are going to rebuild our inner cities. We will rebuild our infrastructure, which will become second to none." He also pledged to create jobs and take care of veterans. So, just as the prophecy was made it came to pass. But the question I ask again is, has God given the world a reprieve? Has it been done for the elect’s sake? Even as I write these words the clock is ticking making way for that day. How much did God set the clock back? How long do we have? Not long the Spirit says. The last days are still upon us and just because we have a reprieve, time is still running out.
As soon as he was sworn into office the liberal politicians, swamp Republicans, Democrats, and the liberal news media continued the assault on him. But the more that they railed against him the firmer he stood. The first item that he settled was the appointments of a supreme court that he felt would back the rights of Christians in America.
In the first year his accomplishments were many but did his critics give him credit? Here is some of what he did in the first year: Appointed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and more than 75 other constitutionally sound federal judges, 30 of whom are serving. Reinstated an expanded Mexico City Policy blocking foreign aid from being used for abortions. Cracked down on illegal immigration and “sanctuary cities.” As Attorney General Jeff Sessions put it: “The lawlessness, the abdication of the duty to enforce our laws, and the catch and release policies of the past are over.” Issued an order killing two federal regulations for every new one. In actuality, 16 were cut for every new one in his first year, saving billions. Engineered a historic tax cut that will save money for more than 80 percent of American households. Withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement, ending the threat of U.S. governance by international bureaucrats. Reversed onerous Obama environmental rules that gave the EPA ham-handed authority to destroy the coal industry and abrogate landowners’ rights. Kick-started America’s energy sector by curtailing regulations, facilitating the Keystone XL Pipeline and opening up vast federal areas to oil and gas exploration. Presided over an economic and stock market boom, lowered unemployment and brought manufacturing jobs back to America from overseas. Rebuilt the nation’s military, destroyed ISIS, and faced down North Korea’s “Rocket Man.” Issued an order enforcing First Amendment protections for religious liberty. Restored the freedom of military chaplains to espouse biblical morality, and essentially reversed Mr. Obama’s transgender military policy. Revoked the Education Department’s order that public schools allow gender-confused males access to girls’ restrooms and locker rooms. Cracked down on s*x trafficking. President Trump signed a law allowing states to move against s*x-ad Internet sites, and the Justice Department on April 6 seized and shut down Backpage.com, which carried ads for prostitution, including trafficked children. Overhauled the mismanaged V.A administration and gave veterans more healthcare choices. Replaced Obamacare, beginning with a repeal of the individual mandate. Imposed sanctions on Venezuela’s socialist dictatorship and revised Obama’s deals with communist Cuba. Recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and repaired damage that Obama did to the U.S.-Israel relationship. Worked with Central American nations to crack down on MS-13 gangs. Then he cancelled the agreement between Iran and the USA which had been made by Muslim President Obama. But as time continued to pass by the world still continued to be headed down the wrong path. A good sign of what would occur after President Trump leaves office could be seen in what Vice President Pence had done by honoring the swearing in of a homos*xual male to an esteemed office.
Could you even begin to imagine what would have transpired if Hillary Clinton had been elected? More government funding for abortions. LGBT political agenda on Tax increases – not a tax cut – to fund a vast expansion of nanny government. More Obama Care More radical judges like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Kagan and Sotomayor on the Supreme Court. Massive illegal immigration, along with the Justice Department attacking states that have strong voter ID laws.
A shutdown of all inquiries into Clinton corruption. A naïve foreign policy that would have emboldened Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran to test American resolve. Even though President Trump was fighting to right the wrongs you could still see the glimmerings of shame waiting in the dark corridors. Seemingly out of nowhere immorality began to arise in great numbers. The far left began to hunt for women of ill repute that would support their cause to discredit the president or anyone that stood with him. In their quest aided by the Liberal News media they found women that suggested they had been r***d or manipulated by men in his organization. Some declared they were r***d and paid off many years ago. But suddenly this attempt to locate women that would expose The Trump administration backfired. Suddenly women were coming forward declaring that they had been r***d by someone in the News media or the Democratic Party. Lawsuits were being filed constantly with even a p**n star wanting publicity for being used by Donald Trump 10 years before Donald was president. Somehow the Trump survived all the attempts to get him out of office but the lies continued but the good work he was doing slowly began to be felt in the job market, stock market, and American Industry. One thing that liars never understand is that one day their deceit will come home. After a year in office there were more jobs and stock and industry growth was so good that big corporations began to give bonuses and raises in salary. The Democrats fumed about what he was achieving. The News media foamed and the birth of fake news was heard around the world as the people began to find out they had been had. As all of this unfolded a plan was devised to place Obama as the head of a world organization. But would it succeed? Only time would tell.
During this time James had completed his study on what the different religions believed in regards to prophecy so he decided that the wisest thing to do was to make sure you are ready to meet God no matter when he comes because if the story about Jimmy and Johnny were something to go by then God can call you home before any rapture or tribulation. He remembered an evangelist ministering recently that told the story about Jimmy and Johnny. Johnny was a homeless boy that sold newspapers on the streets of a large city. Many times, after the sun had set Johnny would find a place to shelter and spend the night. One day as he was selling his papers on the corner a car lost control and came up on the sidewalk striking him. The ambulance came with the sirens screaming and their lights flashing. They picked up Johnny’s body and carried him to a local hospital. The next morning Johnny began to come out of his coma and heard a voice from the bed next to his speaking to him. “Hello, are you alright”? Johnny said I guess so but I am in so much pain. The voice said I am Jimmy what is your name? My name is Johnny. Throughout the day Johnny and Jimmy conversed with each other. Later Johnny looked over at Jimmy and told him that he was still in so much pain and did not know if he could bear it. Jimmy looked over at Johnny and told him, “Johnny after the lights are turned off I have a friend that comes in the room that takes away my pain. Tonight, I am going to ask him to heal me completely and I know that he will.” “What is the name of your friend, Johnny asked?” His name is Jesus and maybe if you call out to him, he will heal you also. So that night after the lights were turned out Jimmy helped Johnny into a position where his arms were lifted up as in prayer. Just as Jimmy had said Jesus did walk down the corridor and came into the room where the boys were. The next morning Jimmy arose out of bed and called out to Johnny asking him if Jesus had healed him and took away his pain. There was no answer. Jimmy asked again Johnny did Jesus come? Then Jimmy realized that Jesus had come that night and he had healed Johnny but decided that he would take Johnny home with him. When Tom had heard this story, he could not hold back the tears and noted that others were also touched by the story of Jimmy and Johnny. As James got more into the word of God, he was able to recognize that the world was headed in the wrong direction. Hell had opened its mouth. The following Sunday over in the U.K. a young man came to accept the full gospel message. God filled him with the Holy Ghost and the Minister had baptized him in the name of the Lord. From that day forward he began his walk up the path to victory. A year later Frank felt that he needed to get deeper in the word of God so he decided to attend the bible school classes that were being held in one of the London churches. During one of the classes God opened up his understanding of the Mighty God in Christ. After this illumination of the scriptures Frank felt his calling into the ministry. There was a Missionary that was opening a new work in one of the large cities about 60 miles from London so when he was asked, he quickly volunteered to be involved in this new venture. Frank began to do outreach knocking on doors and passing out leaflets along with another older minister. One day when they were doing outreach Frank met a young man by the name of Doyle. Doyle was with a couple of young girls and Frank asked them to come out and be in a church service. In the service God touched them in a way they had never felt before. That night Frank testified as to how bad of a sinner he had been but now Jesus Christ had changed his life. After the service was ended Doyle wanted to know what Frank believed about Homos*xuality. Frank began to relate how the word of God was against it and that God had destroyed S***m and Gomorrah because of it. It was just too much for Doyle to listen to. He was not going to give up his way of life. Then Doyle cursed and walked out the door deciding he would never give up his lifestyle. He was part of the ushering in of the last days.
