The Prophetic Word

For thus says the Lord. I am that I am. Listen unto the warnings of My many prophets. Listen to what I say through them. Great judgments shall come upon the nations, but the greatest shall come upon America. For she has served herself, lifting herself up and giving herself the glory for her greatness.

I am that I am has made her great. Those who give the glory for their greatness to Me shall be blessed. Those who think they can become great without Me shall be judged for their evil, their pride, their lust for power.

Thus says the Lord. I have spoken and it shall happen.
