I was awoken at 2:22 this morning, feeling an unusual amount of heat in my feet and legs. As I was trying to figure out the cause, I saw in my spirit the Trump Train that was being held at a station and building up steam. I could tell that its boilers were getting hot as it was being held back from its assigned track. I could sense the restlessness in the air as the engine was awaiting the signal to run its course. As I asked the Lord what this was, I knew He wanted extra prayer for the president in this leg of his race.
We are at the point when executive actions from this president may be vital to securing the integrity of our republic. It is critical that he is given full support to do that which is both constitutionally authorized and morally right. Drastic measures may need to be taken from his office and he cannot be second-guessed by those who are supposed to serve him.
Kim Clement prophesied in 2007 about a future president, and many believe he was referring to President Trump. He described this president as having “hot blood.” I believe this is because God has given President Trump a righteous zeal that burns in his heart like a fire. Seeing the enemies of God trying to destroy this nation and those who fear Him, this President carries Spirit-fueled indignation that few understand or even recognize. Just like the prophet Jeremiah, President Trump has been given a task that burns in his heart. He has been appointed “to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant” (see Jer 20:9). This is his call, and this is his mandate.
But there are those who are trying to neuter him. Those inside the Church have tried to emasculate his zeal and bridal his passion. Calling him too bold and brash, the religious right has sought to mold him in their own image and quiet his tone. Those in the seats of government have tried to control his actions and curtail his drive for breakthrough. Caring more about their careers than this country, these short-sighted advisors try to rob him of the very strength God has given him. I can’t help but think of Job’s friends whose counsel sought to weaken the very faith God had given Job:
Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said: “Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge? Dress for action like a man…” (Job 38:1-3)
Donald Trump was created to be a steamroller. He has been given a God-given power to run down the enemies of God and not hold back. Just as Samson’s strength was in his long hair, President Trump’s strength is in his “hot blood.” That which is misunderstood by the flesh is anointed from heaven to take down the opposition and destroy the devil’s strongholds. The ways and means of God need no approval from man or acceptance from the elite. He just needs an obedient vessel to act. I suggest we pray specifically for this steamroller president as he makes some critical decisions in the days and weeks to come:
*Pray that out of the whirlwind of activity, he would hear the voice of the Lord to remind him of his role and purpose in this hour.
*Pray that his ears would be shut to misguided counselors and open to Spirit-inspired patriots.
*Pray that his quest for truth and determination for justice would outweigh the criticisms and betrayals.
*Pray that his obedience to the Lord would be decisive and anointed from heaven.
Many have been praying for the fire of God to come and revive this nation. Perhaps this prophet in the Oval Office is the spark that will get the fire going – if we but allow his heart to burn and do what he was created for.
