Show me any evidence prior to August 1st in which someone - anyone - had predicted or foreseen Israel literally bombing Beirut and killing Hassan Nasrallah. And then it happened on my birthday.
Did you predict Hassan Nasrallah would be killed by an Israeli airstrike on your birthday? If you did, then I'd be more inclined to believe you.

I didn't "predict" anything. The Lord gave me a prophetic dream. I don't necessarily know what they mean until afterwards. Just like my Druze dream I just posted this morning. Watch and see. It could be today, it could be weeks or months, but I bet Druze will be in the news and my prophetic dream will make sense.

Again, whether or not you believe me makes no difference, apart from being prophetic, it defies statistical odds of "coincidence."

I'm convinced the only reason you two are on this thread is to distract from the message the Lord has given me to share. You do everything in your power to bury it within a hundred empty responses.

You two could have literally just had a private chat conversation this entire time. You felt it was your mission to distract people from what the Lord has sent me to prophesy (or you felt like you could gain some kind of attention here so you continued to wave your hands and shout to everyone passing by - congrats on your success.)

LOL hey it was not I who started the thread intitled

You were the one who said you are a prophet. And from what many have seen and heard so far. You are not one. You may desire to be one. and ask the Lord and serve him well. but you are seeking our approval. Prophets don't do that.

The liberals do the same things as you do, distorting my words as they do with Trump.

Fine company you keep.
that is called a deflection from your own words and actions. You go to seemediums for entertainment and, as you said, to learn. LOL Ok, have at it.

If the generations of America, wicked as they may be and deserving of the destruction you prophesy, I believe truly, show some repentance by electing Trump, will the Lord God give them four more years to repent further and thus in the least the Millennial and Gen Z generation, which men are now adults, be spared the destruction that they and their evil parents the boomers and gen x have earned?
I will share a story. One I don't really want to share because I did wrong and felt like crap about it, but it was one of the many things that follow me when I go on these mission trips. I have more stories, but they won't be respected here, so I don't feel inclined to share them.

On my way to LA (a 1900-mile drive one way from my home), I passed through Aurora, CO. Then I saw the aurora borealis. Then the next day, Trump was in Aurora, CO.

While I was in downtown LA holding my sign, a man came up and sat down on a utility box about 20 feet from me. He began shouting all kinds of things about God and Christ, and shouting, "just f***ing die!" and all other obscenities. He was shouting them into the air and at passersby and would spit and flail, but he would not come near me. Because this type of things happens often when I go out ministering in public, I'm used to it and see it for the demonic activity that it is. Mental illness is what society calls it.

A nonbeliever passed me by and then began asking questions about my sign. I explained it to him and was preaching the Gospel to him. As he stood waiting for the crosswalk light, I mentioned to him, "Do you want to see evidence of the spiritual? This man down here (referring to the screaming man), his demon is fighting against my angel and that's why he won't come near me. The devil brings these people to me every time I go out here."

The man replied, "These...people? That doesn't sound much like Jesus." He then walked off. I felt very humbled because I knew he was right, and I was in the wrong. I was rebuked by a nonbeliever. I almost wanted to pack up and leave right then but the Holy Spirit persuaded me to stay.

On my way home, after I passed through the desert, I had heard that Trump had spoken in California not far from where I had just passed by. He was following me on my way to LA and my way back. The news on the radio quoted this from him that he said at his speech when talking about illegal immigration: "Your children are in danger. You can't go to school with these people, these people are from a different planet."

When I heard that, my mind was blown. Immediately the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, "Do you understand?" I thought about it for a few moments and was like, "No, I don't." And the Holy Spirit answered and said, "They are ALL my people."

What are the odds of these things happening? Is this just regular life for everyone out there? And this is just one of many things that has happened to me on my trips. All kinds of things like this are happening constantly. Like, the Lord told me to go to LA completely on faith. I even used up all of my change in gasoline, slept in my car, and hardly ate so that I could make it to LA. I showed up completely broke with no money to even get home. Given my experience in other cities, I knew parking would be expensive and I couldn't afford it. I prayed, "Lord, I cannot afford parking. I don't know what I'm going to do." When I got downtown, there was an open parking spot with the meter head broken off. I parked there for free the whole time I was there. And it was right across from a small park with a bench that allowed me to put my sign together in the shade. God will provide. He even provided me a way to get home.

if a prophet gets instruction and does not warn the people then condemnation will fall on him but if that Prophet warns the people and they ignore him the guilt will fall on them
it's not easy trying to be a prophet ....it can seem a lonely road but we are not alone For The Most High goes before us and resides in us
All Praises to The Most High for He is Truly worthy of Love and respect

Maybe in your mind, your dream was fulfilled by Hassan Nasrallah's death; but looking objectively, "watch Beirut" is far too vague to say conclusively if it was or wasn't. It could mean something still in the future. It could mean something completely unrelated to Hassan Nasrallah. The fact is there's no way to know. When the Lord speaks to someone, either by a word of knowledge or by dream, there can be no doubt about its fulfillment. You say you're certain because the statistical odds against it being coincidence are too high. Maybe I'd agree if your dream said: "On your birthday, a key figure in Beirut is going to be killed by an Israeli airstrike." Then if it happened, I'd say wow, it's statistically impossible that it could be anything else. But "watch Beirut?" Not so much.

I don't need your approval, nor do I seek it. I do, however, desire to be treated like a brother in Christ. I would like to be encouraged and loved on by those I consider family in the Lord. My blood family are atheists and reject the Lord and live for the world. I don't go to church either because they support so many things that are against what our Lord Jesus Christ teaches, and they refuse to stop. It's best for me not to go and constantly rebuke them for it. So, I'm alone out here doing what Jesus tells me to do. I'm okay with being rejected by my family and by nonbelievers, but it is very difficult when I'm also rejected by my eternal family.

LOL wrong :)


Sin is the problem, and forgetting God days without Number. it is a church that has become lukewarm. it is a people who refuse to humble themselves. it is the "prophets" who speak what is itching of the ears instead of a word that was birthed through Prayer and intercession and seeking God and waiting for an answer that will bring people to repentance or rejection.

That is the job of a prophet. The United States has taught other nations to kill its children. The main talk in all political debates is Abortion. and the return to Roe v Wade. God is judging America because of the Shedding of Innocent Blood. That Blood is crying out for justice, AND GOD WILL BRING IT! Many mock and scoff at the very word of God and thumb their finger in the eyes of a Holy God.
GOD IS not Mocked!. Women's right to choose is a lie from the pit of Hell.

You are fools! Those who have said in their heart that there is no GOD. Women and men can't even use contraceptives correctly because they are unlearned and ignorant. Planned Parent Hood was created to KLill Blacks in America and to reduce their population in 1920. Now, the Democrats and the Black Church have fully supported this program that was created for their own demise. Reprobates.
The "Church" has moved to make Culture supreme, not the Word of God.

Race wars as Jesus said in Matthew chapter 24:7, Nations rise against nations ( ethnos ).
People worship the created things instead of the Creator Roman chapter 1.

Will vote for a person based on color and sex, NOT works or testimony they have lived before us. God will give you over to the very things you want that will undo this NATION and all like it.

There is only one message today that Prophets of God are to say:

Repent! and return to GOD. The enemy is at the gate and is ready to take the nation that is divided and ungodly.

Those who say that is fear tactics. LOL. Tell that to God who sent

Jonah, Jeremiah, Elijah, and John the Baptist.


You say you are a prophet? Then do the work of One or shut up and get out 0of the way of those who are.

After graduating Bible college, and working up the street in the same town...
A local paper was listing the local events for that week.

On my night off, I responded to one ad that spoke of a professional hypnotist who would be entertaining at a local college.

While seated, the hypnotist explained to us that not everyone is hypnotizable.
He did a short demonstration which some responded to, and others it had no effect.

He then told us who were not effected that we could sit back and enjoy the show.

The ones who were hypnotizable were the ones who were vulnerable to an invisible power sphere.
One that would enter to control their mind into an instant state of delusion. A delusion that they thought was real.
He even performed an act that was identical to being slain in the Spirit.

It was like sitting in a secularized Pentecostal church. No mention of Christ. But?
He could make them enter laughter and into a state of joyous expression...
One could speak a language from outer space. And, another interpret for us.
And, even demonstrated that some on command would be filled with a deeply
moving feeling of love for the person sitting next to them.

It is how witches cast spells.
Same power. Only different packaging, and a deceiving of the one implementing it upon another. .

That is why God gave us the Word of God to protect the believer from demonic deception.
In many instances sound doctrine is to check us to see if we have been walking in God's desire..
or Satan's, for those who walk according to their flesh and emotions.

Its not something to be taken lightly. Nor, as a personal attack.

Not to be taken as some personal attack when the Word corrects and rebukes us.
Its to correct us so we can become alerted, and transformed out of our natural vulnerabilities,
and moved into the Mind of Christ.

In Christ .............

So we have it....
Right, the power of suggestion. Some are more susceptible to it than others.

You are being treated like a brother in Christ. We've explained to you that the apostles and prophets laid the foundation of the Church and the Lord no longer appoints those offices today. You don't build foundations all up the building, they are laid once only. You have said you don't attend Church because it's better you don't be constantly rebuking them. Well, you can give rebukes but not take them? You are not a prophet, there are no prophets today, nor are there apostles, so stop calling yourself something you are not.

Ephesians 2:20
having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,

You want us to take your word yet you won't believe the word of God? All Christians ought to be prophetic, but that does not make us prophets. Learn the difference.

Revelation 19:10
And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

Right, the power of suggestion. Some are more susceptible to it than others.

Power of suggestion?
May I "suggest" you find out what that means in everyday use?

Life regressions hypnotism?.... That can not be power of suggestion. It has to be something else. . It manifests inside information that the hypnotized person does not possess.

It's been reported that some people not only go back in time, but begin speaking in a foreign language with the dialect of that past era. Power of suggestion does not produce that.

At one point in my life, I was exposed to people who exposed me to these things.
That does not mean I was seeking such a thing out, as one person here accuses me of.
He does not like that I have become informed and see through counterfeits.
