"The Judge Has Spoken! – A Dream For the United States of America"
My Dream of the Courtroom
I found myself sitting in what can only be described as a frantic "courtroom". I sat and watched as one witness after another presented their evidence.
One came forward and shouted with tears, "Look at this wickedness!" I looked and saw horrific pictures of dead babies and children.
Then another came and shouted, "Look at this greed."
Then another, "Look at this pride."
Then another, "Look at this corruption."
This went on as more and more irrefutable evidence of guilt was given. It got to the point that the courtroom was in a frenzy of outrage. Yet the high Judge just sat and listened until every accusation had been given and all the evidence had been submitted.

Once all this was done He still sat silent. All the people stood and chanted, "Guilty, guilty. Judge them, judge them!"
Finally, with a loud voice the Judge said,"Silence!" Immediately every person became silent and sat down. (Photo via flickr)
The Judge spoke and said, "I have heard all and seen all. The guilt of these lands of the United States of America is indeed great! I have decided judgment is indeed due and right!"
The people cheered, and He commanded them to be silent! "Before I pass My judgment, I have one last witness. Can the Holy Spirit take the stand please?"
An old woman came forward. She was old but not frail in any way. Her eyes shone as she stood in the stand.
The Judge spoke, "Do you have your evidence?"
"I do indeed," and she pointed to the video screen. There appeared an image of a small child on her knees praying, then a teenager and then an adult. Image after image appeared of more and more Believers of every age, class and race falling to their knees in prayer, then the screen went black.
The Judge spoke, "Is this the last of your evidence?"
The old woman responded, "Yes!"
"Please step down," the Judge replied.
All eyes in the room were fixed on Him. "Your evidence is indeed compelling, yet the guilt of this land is indeed great, in fact it grows daily; I have therefore chosen judgment."
The Judge's Verdict
He placed a black cap over His head, took the gavel in His hand and struck the sound block and said, "I find this land worthy of... a great revival, the likes of which has never been seen before or will be seen again!" (Photo via flickr)
As He said this, Blood poured forth from His throne and swept every accuser out of the room. I then saw a map of the United States going up in flames as God began the answer to the prayers of His burning ones.
The Lord spoke and said, "The guilt of this land is indeed great, but My praying Church and My shed Blood is greater! So I grant a great revival that will take every street, town and city. For I will not have the cries of My people unheard.
"This land will arise and she will indeed shine! In what seems to be her darkest hour, she shall shine at her brightest!"

"Who Rules? A Vision Concerning Washington D.C."
The vision God gave me concerning Washington D.C. which healed anger and fear:
It occurred during my morning journaling time as I asked God to show me His heavenly perspective and how HE saw Washington D.C. It was a life-changing experience!
Seeing evil: I looked in my mind's eye at Washington D.C. and all I wascorruption, lack of integrity and ineptness. It made me angry and it made me fearful: Angry because no one would stand up and do the right thing, and fearful because their terrible spending habits could destroy the entire economy.
Feeling evil: I realized that anger and fear were not proper fruit in my life, so I decided to journal about this in my morning devotions. I asked Jesus to show up in the picture of Washington in my mind. What I was viewing did not have Jesus in it, so it obviously was a lie since Jesus is everywhere, and because it was a lie, it was producing some pretty ugly emotions.
Seeing Jesus: I put a smile on my face, relaxed, and asked Jesus to show me where He was in the scene. Into my mind flowed a picture of Jesus enthroned on a throne above Congress and the White House. His long flowing robes were flowing down over Congress and the White House, and His glory was streaming down over the buildings and those who lived and worked in them.

Hearing Jesus: He spoke, "I rule in Washington D.C."
Reflection: Well, of course He does. He is King of kings and Lord of lords. And yes, I sure don't know why He puts certain people over us, but the Roman government was far worse than our government, and yet Jesus was clear that they had no power other than what God granted them.
So Pilate said to Him, "Do You not know that I have authority to release You, and I have authority to crucify You?" Jesus answered, "You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above." John 19:10-11
I said, "Yes, but God, they are removing You from all institutions in America!"
God reminds me of His reaction in Scripture to the identical situation...
Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, "Let us tear their fetters apart and cast away their cords from us!" Psalm 2:1-3
Will God ever be removed? The nations in David's day were also attempting to remove God from their lives – throw off His moral restraints so they would have no cords to bind them, and they could do anything they pleased.
Well, God wasn't too concerned about their puny efforts...
He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; Jehovah shall mock at them. Then He shall speak to them in His anger, and trouble them in His wrath.Psalm 2:4-5
You know, if God can laugh, then I can, too. Laughter is so much better than getting all down in the dumps and getting fearful, angry and depressed. So guess what? I have decided to laugh and set aside my fear, anger and depression, and I highly recommend you do so, too. It is healing to your whole body, and a testimony to your belief that the Lord is still on His throne. (Photo by Lillis Boyer "Throne Room Glory: Golden Splendor" via elijahshopper.com)
Taking authority: I can also ask for the nations to become the Lord's, which I do!
Ask of Me, and I shall give the nations for Your inheritance; and the uttermost parts of the earth for Your possession. Psalm 2:8
Church, let's rise up with a victory shout and declare the truth: The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof (Psalm 24:1). and the Most High is Ruler over the realm of mankind (Daniel 4:17)!
There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace! Isaiah 9:7
