How I Processed My Inaccurate Prophetic Word (Your Top Questions Answered)

I’ve received a lot of questions from you the past several weeks about prophecy, politics, and what’s happening in our country right now. On this week’s video blog, I wanted to address two commonly asked questions. 


QUESTION 1: ARE YOU STILL A PROPHET, EVEN THOUGH TRUMP ISN’T OUR PRESIDENT? 
In a nutshell: 
  • I want to bring some clarity on the prophetic ministry and what’s happening in our country. 
  • 1 Corinthians 14:29 says, “Have two or three prophets speak, and have the others pass judgment.”
  • God gave us a way to judge prophecies because He didn’t expect people to be infallible. God put checks and balances into the body of Christ. 
  • In the New Testament, there’s nowhere that says getting a false prophetic word makes you a false prophet. It’s all about the heart!  False prophets  are people who lead people astray on purpose. 
  • When I realized I got the prophetic word wrong about Trump, I asked the Lord what should I do; He told me to  apologize , not contend. I had to be true to what I felt the Holy Spirit said to me. 
  • I feel like the Lord is cleansing all areas of culture, including the prophetic movement. He’s pruning us to become noble people that live with convictions. 

QUESTION 2: SHOULD I BE AFRAID OF THE GOVERNMENT? 
In a nutshell: 
  • A lot of people are fearful of the government. 
  • If we’re going to change history, it’s important that we change hearts! 
  • We live in a country where you’re innocent until you’re proven guilty. When we decide that someone is guilty without a trial and then we behave as if they’re guilty, is that not mob justice (the very thing we’re trying not to become)? 
  • The people that are shaping history are the ones who are winning hearts, not the war. 
  • Social justice and morality issues are the fruit of something deeper happening. We need to influence people from the inside out.
  • It’s important that we have a strategy that first wins the heart. 

IT’S TIME TO LOVE PEOPLE

It’s time to move back to loving people! I’d propose that we can cure the ills of society by simply being people who love other people. My prayer is that God would give us wisdom and insight as we navigate the pandemic, the social justice issues, and the issues of morality. May we leave our children in a better world!
I challenge you to pray for your leaders today, to change history by pursuing hearts, and remember Jesus is King and He’s in charge.
I’d love to hear how you are trusting the Lord? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

In a world more connected than ever through the internet and social media, the deep, authentic connection we all yearn for has become increasingly elusive. Created in God’s image, we instinctively desire to be known, loved, and belong, yet so many of us wrestle with invisible barriers that keep us isolated. What if the secret to breaking through these barriers lies not in more connections but in deeper, more meaningful ones with both God and others? How can we identify and overcome what prevents us from experiencing true connection in our daily lives?

In early December, I began seeking a prophetic word from the Lord for 2024. He told me, "I am not going to give you a word for 2024. Instead, I am going to give you a word for the Body of Christ for a new era." He explained that January 2024 would be a half-time; marking the closure of an era and the beginning of a new one. This period would be characterized by immense transition, culminating in the discipling of nations. A supernatural metamorphosis, metaphorically akin to a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, would occur right before our eyes.

Have you ever found yourself in the midst of life's chaos, desperately needing a break, clarity, and a spiritual reset? Picture it like halftime – that pivotal moment when the coach steps in, recalibrates the team, and sparks a turnaround. The game isn't over; this is a chance to come back stronger and claim victory! In recent weeks, a resounding message has been echoing in my heart and mind: January is the Church's halftime! Our divine Coach is calling us to the huddle, to draw close, and let Him fine-tune our game plan – our values, thoughts, and behaviors. Amid the noise, He's inviting us to step away, knowing that leaning into these divine moments will catapult us into the second half, ready for victory. And in this game, we already know the final score – He wins!
