I am neither Republican or Democrat, says the Lord!

I have been traveling in many Nations since Father´s day weekend. I have been in Europe, China and now Brazil. I have been watching the activities of our nation and the church in America. I have watched as the economic systems of the world are shaken to the very core.
Before I left the USA, The Lord spoke to me that He has chosen Obama. As a matter of fact, the specific word was ¨You deserve Hillary Clinton but I have chosen Obama¨. This was a word from the Lord before Obama received the nomination. I shared this with my team to watch and pray. Much of what I am going to say will be very controversial. However, I believe it is from the Lord. It was impossible for Obama to win the nomination against Hillary Clinton but it happened.
'They will Fail, remember Eli and his 2 sons!' So I inquired of the Lord! The following is my impression from the Lord:
The door of 40 years of transition is here! It has been 40 years since Martin Luther King, Jr quoted Is. 40 and had been to the mountain top then died a martyrs death. It has been 40 years since Robert Kennedy was slain. Obama is going to win so as to bring an end of the political church which has grow fat and eyes dim to the true work of God. A political church that calls on God to rain down on their enemies and prove them politically correct. I was quite shocked to hear Focus on the family prophesying and calling for prayer to rain on Obama. It didn´t rain and it actual worked against the republicans and they cancelled a day of their convention. I will quote a canadian preacher who has been watching the USA church too! He said Now let me get this straight. A large number of born-again people are to let God know that He is supposed to send rain at a specific time in Denver, CO. And not just rain, but a storm of such devastating proportions that all would know, "this was God." Sadly, the evangelical church has lost awareness of what the Gospel is all about. God is not in the business of punishing whatever person or idea he might be displeased with. God sent His judgment for human sin on Jesus Christ, releasing us to preach "Good News" to the world. Unfortunately, bad news religion seems to be everywhere.
I Samuel 4 is the story of the philistines capturing the ark and one of the people of Gods´ greatest defeat! Many thought the Palin choice would rally the evangelical church for the Republicans. It was in deed a good choice The sound at the convention was like when the ARK was brought into the camp of the Israel. The Palin choice was self motivated as in 1 Samuel 4:3. Let (US) fetch, when it cometh among (US), it will save (US) out of the hand of our enemies. I have news for the American church ¨We will fail¨ The Christian right is wrong in this case. When they called for rain on Obama the Lord spoke that is the wrong Spirit! The church in American has been like ELi and his 2 sons. Their eyes are dim and they can´t see! Eli failed to restrain his vile, ungodly sons who did not know God.
This nation will be taken during this Nov 4th election by the Philistines. Obama and the democrats will get it because God will allow it. (1 Samuel 4:11) It will break the neck of the political rightwing in the church. The Lord said I am neither republican or democrat! The church will finally be free of the partisanship that has plagued the church. We will finally have to preach the good news. The bible says Eli judged Israel 40 years. We are in a critical season where everything will change. Even the leadership in Israel will change as a sign of this new season. 40 years is a number of transition and judgement. Obama is the answer of slaves and many who died during the civil rights movement. God is not fair but He is just!
In one day everything will happen, Nov 4th! I Samuel 2:34 was the prophetic word to Eli and his sons and it is to the Amercian church. However the word of the Lord says He will keep the feet of the saints and the wick shall be slient in darkness, for by strenghth shall no man pervail. The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces. 1 Sam 2:9-10 Even though the Obama camp will win the election. The Lord says, I will do a work in this nation which both the ears of everyone that hearth it shall tingle. The hand of the Lord will be heavy upon our enemies.
The philistines will win the election, but GOD will get the people of God back to preaching the gospel. It will seem like the Ichabod season in Amercia; that the Glory has departed! God will get America back on her knees and on track to preach the good news everywhere. City by city revival will breakout. God is going to raise up some of the greatest prophetic evenagelist the world has very seen. Samuels´ will arise to speak to the governmental leaders. We are at the door of the greatest revival in the mist of a great defeat. So be encouraged Church in America, the next 3 years Nov 2008, 2009 & 2010 will be the greatest season of spiritual revival in our lives. It is a new season! The wealth transfer is here! It is time to preach the Gospel of the kingdom and the Lord will work with us confirming the message.
