During worship (warfare) one morning the Holy Spirit reminded me of a vision He had given me just prior to the election. I had been praying with a broken heart and contrite spirit for the future of this nation, which in all honesty looked dismal to me. As I cried out to the Lord for forgiveness and mercy, He graciously showed me a map of the United States covered with miniature lighthouses. They looked real, three dimensional, but very small. I wish I could say they covered all fifty states, but am comforted knowing that almost every state had at least one covering it. I include these “lighthouses” in my daily prayer and pray that eventually every U.S. state has an intercessor like this.

I interpreted it to be christians across the U.S. praying with one accord for the future of this nation. It brought me to tears. I shared my vision with the saints on my old periscope account and was encouraged to see so many believing with me for YHVH to transform this land and forgive the church for sleeping on the job. Needless to say, Athaliah did not take the throne and christians across the globe are breathing a sigh of relief. This is only a reprieve, for the end times are quickly approaching, but I for one appreciate the extra time, as I am sure Nineveh did.

My heart’s cry now is for the worldwide church to prepare for the coming persecution. Christians abroad already know what it means to suffer for their faith. We here in the States have been blessed; we have no idea what it means to be persecuted. I wish I could tell you that we won’t ever live through it-but I cannot in good faith do so. Persecution is coming to the U.S., and it is right around the corner. We are already seeing pastors being censored; they face fines and even incarceration for proclaiming homosexuality to be a sin. And this is just the beginning. We need to have the faith of Isaac as he allowed himself to be placed on the altar and watched his father Abraham bring the knife over his head (Genesis 22:6-12).

I have been warning anyone who will listen to create local networks of bartering systems. When the mark of the beast is enforced and as believers we refuse to take it, we will need to find a way to purchase goods and supplies. An underground network of christians would be an excellent strategy. I know most consider “prepping” and storing food and water is their most feasible option and I agree it’s important to protect your family’s interests. However, that stockpile will eventually disappear: where will you find more? History has shown us time and time again that in times of war, famine and persecution the only way to survive is through unity.

The Lord reminded me that morning of that vision of the lighthouses. And then it hit me: the lighthouses are the networks! Thank You, Jesus! I was overcome with joy. The Father is a master chess player who has His pieces in place and His moves planned out at least one hundred steps ahead of the enemy. 1 Kings 19:18 comes to mind, or even further back, Revelation 13:8 (yes, I said even further back-catch that). It is my duty as the watchman on the wall to share this with you. It is ultimately up to each and every one to do our part and prepare for the days ahead. And it is as simple as praying for like minded brethren with whom to connect. Ask and ye shall receive. I pray this blesses you.
