One of our IFA intercessors sent this dream a few days ago, and we believe it is a call to pray for President Trump as he continues to confront corruption and evil intent in the high places of our government.
In the dream, this intercessor saw President Trump preparing to speak at an event and waiting inside the house of a woman who was downtrodden and poor. Parts of this house were being remodeled as it was in shambles. The room he sat in wasn't being fixed up and was horrible and dirty.
In the dream, this intercessor began to clean out the trash in a corner of the room when she found a "slipper"—a "houseshoe." It was torn from top to bottom and smelled awful. When she looked inside, there was flesh still in it and it looked as though someone had pulled their foot out, leaving their flesh behind. There were maggots crawling all over it.
"In disgust, I threw it down hurriedly, and it flipped toward the feet of the president. I ran over and got it and threw it outside and away from him. During this entire ordeal, President Trump was sitting alone in that room, reading a paper, and did not seem to be affected by any of this."
We ask you to pray into this as the Holy Spirit reveals God's purposes. I would propose to you that the symbolism in the dream represents the "swamp" that Trump is trying to clean out. The "house" that he is waiting in refers to the underlying structures of the "swamp" (perhaps even more specifically the House of Representatives). The "flesh" found inside this "houseshoe" could represent those sin and flesh issues that have made this place of government corrupt, thus drawing evil forces ("maggots"). Those who have served in this place have left a stench that needs to be cleared out.
Of even greater concern is the fact that these "house slippers" tried to get on President Trump. I believe this is the focus of our prayers. We know a tactic of the enemy is to find a weakness or crack in someone's armor in order to attack and take hold. We must pray for President Trump to strengthen his own heart and soul in order to deflect any attempt of the enemy to take hold of him and cause him to slip in his walk. We must also pray that he becomes aware of these spiritual attacks and not dismiss them prematurely (in the dream, he was alone and totally unaware of what was happening). The fact that Trump was even willing to sit in this crumbling house is telling.
Realizing that this can all be subjective in nature, we ask that you simply pray into this and ask the Lord to reveal His purposes in this regard. We know President Trump needs prayer. We know that God is cleaning house and that enemy forces are seeking to devour and destroy us. I encourage you to use these Scriptures to lift up our president and those he works with in this season of clean-up:
Pray that President Trump would be aware of the enemy's schemes (Rom. 16:17-18; 2 Cor. 2:11, 11:3-4).
Pray that President Trump would put on the armor of God to withstand enemy attack (Eph. 6:10-20, 2 Pet. 1:2-4).
Pray that President Trump would not be swayed by flattering or deceitful schemes (2 Pet. 2:3, Rom. 16:17-18).
Pray for those around President Trump to rightly watch out for him and stand with him (Prov. 4:23, Matt. 26:39-41).
Pray for the Trump household that God's presence would overshadow relationships and family connections (Prov. 4:23, 1 Cor. 13:4-8, Col. 3:12-14).
Bless the Lord for the work He is doing in cleaning out corruption in high places (2 Chron. 19:7, Is. 61:8, Rom. 2:8-11).

Given some recent events that are making national headlines, I feel compelled to share a dream I had in 2015 in which I had an open vision of the coming days. The weight of its message was clear, and I believe we are getting closer and closer to a shift we could never imagine and a reality we've never known.
I was walking down a road with many people. All of the sudden behind my right shoulder, a huge golden beam of light from the heavens shone down and began to move across the sky in front of me from right to left. It was massive, and it was evident it was not manmade but from another realm. It began to engulf everything it touched.
At the same time, I looked up to my right, and in the skies was a huge screen that opened up in front of me. On it, I saw a map of the world. It was as if I were seeing and experiencing this phenomenon from two different dimensions. I saw this all-encompassing golden light start at the eastern part of the map near Australia and it began to slowly move west across the entire globe. The light filled the entire sky and was full of glory and power. It seemed to move across the center of the map, touching different countries at varying degrees. I knew that what I was seeing and experiencing was global and affecting everyone everywhere.
I heard myself shouting "It's happening! It's happening!" and my heart began to race with excitement. This light was multi-dimensional. It not only went across the surface of the earth but went underneath in varying degrees of color and richness. The more it penetrated, the deeper its color and impact. It was powerful, distinct and moved with ultimate authority.
I was immediately overwhelmed with joy and awe and fell to my knees as I realized the immensity of what was happening. I cried out, "It's a sign! Get ready!" I knew it was the weight of His glory covering the earth. Yet, even as I was filled with wonder and awe I could sense the fear around me, the uncertainty of what was taking place. Though half of the people were caught up in worship and adoration, the other half were on their knees in absolute terror. As people looked up, dazed and in shock of what was taking place, I shouted out without hesitation, "It's coming! Yes!" I could see that for those who were not ready, it was bringing dread and fear. But, for those who believed...it was going to be awesome!
I realized then that the fear of the Lord was coming in great glory and power, and everything in its path was going to be affected. Depending on the state of each one's heart, this move would bring either worship and awe, or fear and dread.
This dream not only signaled a charge on my life to sound an alarm to the church but fueled my passion to call us up higher in holiness so that we can see the Lord in His fullness (Heb. 12:14). I see the Bridegroom, the captain of the hosts, standing in the heavens with fire in His eyes as He looks upon the earth. His heart burns with fierce love for His bride and His absolute determination to cover the earth with the knowledge of His Father's glory. He sees the sin, the compromise, the lack of holiness and righteousness—in the church. It is the zeal of the Lord that will compel Him to come in an unprecedented move of the Spirit, which will carry the fear and terror of the Lord in such great power and presence that everyone will fall to their knees.
"There they were in great fear, for God is with the generation of the righteous" (Ps. 14:5).
This is not the rapture or the return of Jesus. This is a move of the Spirit that will utterly change everything and everyone in such a way, we will no longer do life as we did before.
It will be a wake-up call, demonstrating the reality of His kingdom authority and power. It will not be like any other past moves of the Holy Spirit. It will not limit itself to a few hungry souls, but will permeate and saturate all in its path. Jesus is set on revealing the full weight of His Father's love, power and holiness in order to energize and empower His bride for the work ahead. This move will destroy all double-mindedness, self-righteousness, greed, pride and self-promotion. This move will cleanse us, refine us, purify us and deliver us from the evil one's deception and trickery. It will expose those who are right with God and those who are not. It will shine the light in the darkness and all the rats and rodents of wickedness in high places will be scrambling for protection, only to find they have been utterly unseated and undone.
This move of the fear and terror of the Lord will turn things inside out and upside down, for the rules will change. It will no longer be the kingdoms of this world that will determine the course of history, but the kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. His ultimate authority as King of the earth will be made manifest, and those who serve Him out of a pure heart will be given even greater access, favor and heavenly authority to rule in the midst of His enemies (Ps. 110:1-2). That which was by faith will now be made visible, and heaven's justice will be executed on the earth as He makes our enemies His footstool. But, it will not come without cost.
Things that are taking place, even now, should serve as a reminder that no one is exempt from trial, hardship or pain. Being a follower of Christ does not guarantee an easy road or carefree journey (Matt. 5:44-45). Those who are selling that kind of walk are peddlers and fools. The only "safe" place on this side of heaven is to be under the shelter of the most high God (Ps. 91). The access to that place is through righteousness and a holy life. There are no shortcuts. It is only as we rightly fear the Lord that we are kept from the enemy's hold and assured of a righteous reward.
"Who is the man who fears the Lord? He will teach him in the way He should choose. He will dwell at ease, and his descendants will inherit the land. The counsel of the Lord is with those who fear him, and He will make His covenant known to them" (Ps. 25:12-14).
We must be prepared. When this move comes, will we be on our knees in worship or on our knees in terror? Will we rejoice at the tangible presence of His power and glory or will we tremble in fear due to the sin and compromise in our lives? Now is the time to turn away from excuses and apathy. Now is the time to embrace the cross and lay down any sense of entitlement to our lives. The Father is calling for absolute obedience, surrender and holiness. There are no grey areas in His presence. He is about to burn up all His enemies and utterly consume the lies, the strongholds and the idolatry that is poisoning the church.
There will be no doubt when this move comes, and none will be able to deny His presence. The only question will be if we are ready. Pray that the fear of the Lord would grip our hearts, even now, and draw us closer to His throne of grace so we can worship Him in awe and trembling at His glorious coming.

These 4 Dreams Offer Insight into What the Lord Is Doing in Prophetic Ministry
The Lord is calling out to the prophets and intercessors to prepare for what is ahead in this next year and to work together in even more strategic ways. We are on high alert in the spirit because of the major shifts that are taking place both nationally and globally. A series of dreams I recently had on the 11th day of a 12-Day fast concerning the government mountain, details some of the things that are happening and that are going to happen. It also reveals the great need for intercessors to partner with and cover those with a prophetic mantle.
The first dream
In the very first dream of the series, I experienced what seems to be happening in the Spirit due to the voices of the prophets this past year.
I was outside working near a fountain doing some work. I looked around the surrounding landscape and I saw many "bushes," clumps of tangled up roots, coming towards me from all directions. They were huge balls of dried-up roots and branches that seemed alive, and they were moving toward me as if a magnet was attracting them. Next, I see birds. Not ordinary birds, but specific kinds with a distinct tail that I knew were from the enemy. They were trying to find a place to land on me. Last, I saw a group of teenagers coming towards me on the right. They were yelling, accusing and cursing me. It all happened quickly, but I instinctively knew witchcraft was at work behind it all. Even though I felt hesitant to yell at the teenagers, I knew another force was compelling them, so I yelled "Stop!"
That one directive was all that was needed to halt the intrusion.
This opening dream gives the context for the rest. It illustrates the results of our prayers and warfare in this nation. It is the prophet (and in some cases, the prophetic intercessor) who is standing by the fountain. The prophets have been uniquely gifted to lead the way in identifying and exposing the sins on this land. The fountain in the dream represents the life flow of the Spirit that prophets draw from. As a result of drawing from this wellspring of revelation, many prophets who were previously hidden came "outside"—into the public arena—to "work"/prophesy during the election, declaring freedom from the curse and healing to the land. However, in coming into the open, they have also exposed themselves to the enemy.
The clumps of bushes reveal the ungodly roots of this nation that have been pulled up and are, even now, being displaced on the land. In God's eyes, they are but tumbleweed, yet they are fighting back. The enemy will not give up ground easily and hell's agents are coming to intimidate and provoke fear into those who are calling them out. In like manner, the birds also represent agents of the enemy. In Eccl.10:20, it speaks of a bird "in the sky" that is used of the enemy to "carry your voice" to its master in order to build a case against you. I knew in the dream these were those kinds of birds. They were trying to find something to land on. It is in this regard that the prophets and intercessors must be able to have the testimony of Jesus when He said, "...[Satan] has no power over me" (John 14:30b). We must be sure to be clear of any charges against us in the courts of heaven in order to stand with proper authority.
The teenagers who were yelling represent this next generation that has been brainwashed by the spirit of the age. They are upset and angry, yet they are being driven by an agenda that is not of God. (I believe they were on my right side because their hearts are pure, but they are being deceived.) Before we can address their true God-given hunger and passion, we need to take a stand in the Spirit and bind the enemy at work in order to open their eyes.
This too is an important point. In the dream, I only said "Stop." I did not rebuke or engage the enemy. I believe this is a word of caution when dealing with principalities. We are told to stand and resist the enemy. This was confirmed to me twice during this 12-Day fast when the Lord woke me up on Day 1 and Day 4, both times at exactly 3:22 a.m. He directed me to Deut. 3:22 which says, Do not fear them, for the Lord your God, He shall fight for you." As we begin to take and occupy the territory before us, we will be displacing many giants on the land. The Lord is telling us if we do our part, He will do His.
The next two dreams both said the same thing in different ways. The Lord is showing us the power that when "even two" agree on something, so shall it be.
The second dream
A man helped rescue me from a bad situation. There wasn't much detail, other than that when I thanked him for his life-saving assistance, he told me he received a word from heaven two times in a row. That's how he knew to help me.
The third dream
I was sitting with a group of others, watching myself on a big screen being interviewed on a major TV network. The thing was—this was a live feed. Yet, I was also sitting in the room watching. I was in two places at the same time. In the interview, I was telling someone that I had received two calls from heaven concerning this interview.
In this set of two dreams, the main message is to pay attention to our agreement in prayer. "again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by My Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 18:19). It is those who have been assigned to prophesy over this nation in this hour who will be the first targets of the enemy. It will be as if a magnet is on them, attracting the evil forces they are displacing through the anointing from heaven. They must be covered in prayer, both for their clarity of purpose and potentially for their own personal safety.
The second scenario is showing the reality of the two realms we live in, the natural and the spiritual. Even as I was "watching myself," it was my spirit (on the big screen) that was hearing from heaven and giving me the confidence and affirmation that I was in the right place at the right time.
I believe there will be prophets in this next year who will not only stand out in the church mountain, but will be seen in the national media. What is to come will be so astounding, prophets will be speaking on major TV networks speaking the word of the Lord. However, the intercessors must be praying and declaring heaven's purposes and promises at the same time. The partnership of prophets and intercessors is key to being properly aligned and mantled with God's presence and anointing. Because of the enemy's backlash, it is the prayers of the saints that will provide the cover and blessing for others to move into position and declare God's purposes for this nation.
The fourth dream
I was listening to executives of major TV networks strategically planning when to air certain things specifically because a large number of people would be watching at the same time. They knew they would attract something from the spirit realm with a critical mass in agreement. I also knew that instead of showing things at nighttime, they would specifically air things at 12 noon because of that critical mass.
This "collective mindset" is not just another way of describing unity. It speaks to the demonic mind control that is being used to deceive and blind people to the Truth. The spiritual principle is that when there are enough people believing the same thing, it has power to attract—either heaven or hell. The Lord is alerting us to this reality in order to challenge us in what we agree on! The enemy is already planning strategic events in the next 12 months in order to grow in influence and power. We must be ready to not only resist but displace that collective mindset with unity in Christ.
"Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you" (Job 22:21, ESV).
It is our collective agreement in prayer that will displace these demonic strongholds and forces that have been illegal squatters in this nation. It is also because of this power of unity in the Spirit that there will be a divine separation in this next year of the false prophets from the true prophets. Throughout my fast, I kept hearing, "True prophets know true prophets." Because of the residue from years of dysfunctional prophetic understanding in the body of Christ, there are many self-appointed and counterfeit prophets in the land. Some are simply ignorant of what it means and are acting out of desire rather than call. Others are taking liberties not given to them and speaking into fields they have not been assigned. The Lord is going to "drain the swamp" in this regard. Even as the White House is going through a spiritual cleansing, the church is going to undergo the same treatment.
The true prophetic is not marked simply by words of encouragement or promises of provision and advancement. The prophetic is marked, first and foremost, by revelation. It is the prophet's role to see and hear the mysteries of heaven and stir up that same hunger and gifting within believers (Amos 3:7). It is the call of the prophet to multiply themselves and equip the body. Those who are prophesying simply to build a ministry or personal platform and following will lose influence this next year. The Lord will increase His favor and grace to those He has mantled with the purity of heart in seeing the next generation fully empowered in and by the Holy Spirit. It is the true prophets He has called in this hour who will be supernaturally drawn to one another because of the same spirit in which they function. The true prophets will simply know who the other true prophets are and will begin to partner together.
It is the pleasure of the Lord to see the Kingdom age emerge as the foundation of the ecclesia is properly established and built in this nation through the apostles and prophets. He is telling His prophets to speak up. Though there are giants in the land, we have already overcome. But we cannot go in alone. We need each other. Everyone plays a part: apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, intercessors and all the other parts of the body. May we enter this season with eyes open, hearts aligned and prayers ready to agree with God in order for heaven to truly come to earth.
