00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,920
We certainly live in turbulent times, and one of the things that people all over are asking is,
2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:11,360
what is going on and what is God saying? Hello, everyone. I'm Stephen Strang, and welcome to
3
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:16,560
the Strang Report podcast, where we deal with these kind of issues, trying to understand what
4
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:23,440
God is saying and how we should live. Well, today my guest is Lance Wallnau. He has been an outspoken
5
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:30,640
leader in the body of Christ. He kind of bridges from the business community to the ministry
6
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:38,240
community. In 2016, he wrote a book called God's Chaos Candidate about Donald Trump and said that
7
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:45,840
he believed that God was raising up Donald Trump like Cyrus, who was a pagan king who helped the
8
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:51,040
children of Israel go back to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. Well, today we're going to talk about
9
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:57,200
what's going on. Not so much about Donald Trump per se. This is not really political, but this is
10
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:04,160
how can we understand the prophetic and what is God saying? Not in a predictive kind of way, but in
11
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,040
a general kind of way. You don't want to miss my conversation. Stay tuned.
12
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:14,480
Lance Wallnau, thanks for being in my podcast. I have an important question that I believe many
13
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,520
in the body of Christ are asking. What are you hearing from God in this season?
14
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:26,400
Well, you know, Steve, in the midst of all the dystopian and clickbait, intense news cycles,
15
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:32,480
and of course, nothing like an election year during the election season, I think, is happening.
16
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:39,680
And I think the Lord is telling me is rather remarkable. He's saying right out of the book
17
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:46,080
of Acts quoting from Habakkuk, behold, I am doing a work you would not believe that someone was to
18
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,760
declare it to you. Well, right away I step back and I say, well, wait a second, Lord, you're doing
19
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:58,240
something that we that me as a charismatic, as a Pentecostal, I'm doing. I'm doing something that
20
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:04,960
we that me as a charismatic, as a Pentecostal with a seven mountain worldview, I would be amazed at.
21
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:10,800
And I started looking at what's going on in the world, Stephen. And I saw that we got 50 elections
22
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:17,280
happening. A shift is happening in the cosmic consciousness of the globe. And elites are being
23
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:23,680
pushed back on as God is solidifying a movement for the harvest. I believe it's a populist movement
24
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,960
and it's a window of grace. And I think it's coming to America. Well, you're right about what's
25
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:37,600
happening in Europe, which we consider much less Christian, much more left wing, usually.
26
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,360
Totally. And the elections last week were just astounding. So you and then of course, we saw it
27
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:49,760
in Argentina. So in El Salvador, I mean, my gosh, we had a president down there. It's a Christian
28
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:55,520
does his interview with Tucker and says, here's how we're turning the nation around. We've gone
29
00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:01,280
from the murder capital of the world to the most safe country in the world. He locked up all of MS-13
30
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:08,240
and Tucker said, well, how did you do it? He said, first, we prayed. And Tucker goes, pray?
31
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,480
He said, no, but that wasn't it. We had to get, he said, you had to get a strategy goes, yes,
32
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:19,840
that was what we prayed for wisdom. Tucker's like, I believe you, but this sounds hard to believe.
33
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:26,160
Bam, God's raising up leaders. If we will pray, God will give us leaders that will navigate
34
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,160
sovereign nations, those nations that have Christian covenant and Christian power.
35
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,200
We will shift the heavens. I believe that completely.
36
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:41,520
You know, I wrote an op-ed this week about the end of time and how we have to believe that the
37
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:48,800
Holy Spirit leads us no matter how bad it is, which is tangential to what you're talking about.
38
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:56,160
But I get a feeling in the circles that I move in that people almost feel hopeless.
39
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,800
You know, we've been seeing this leftward movement for at least a hundred years.
40
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:06,960
You can track it all the way back to Woodrow Wilson and maybe before that. And we've been losing
41
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:13,440
little by little by little. And I feel like a lot of Christians are just kind of throwing up their
42
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,720
hands. I mean, you know, in 216, it looked like Donald Trump, the chaos candidate,
43
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:26,080
a catchy phrase that you came up with. It looked like there was a reprieve.
44
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,600
And then there were all these prophecies that tried to get you to believe in the Holy Spirit.
45
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:35,120
And then there were all these prophecies that Trump would be in for two terms. That did not happen.
46
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:42,000
We had all kinds of prophets saying that the House of Representatives was going to turn it around or
47
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,560
all kinds of things. I didn't keep track of all those stuff.
48
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
49
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:50,720
And now with this election cycle, I just see a lot of people not even
50
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:56,160
hardly interested. I mean, they're concerned about the country, but what difference does it make?
51
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,120
What do you think?
52
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,960
I think the Republicans are having post prophetic trauma or what that is after a world war,
53
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,600
because a lot here's the deal. Let me be honest with you, Steve. A lot of people jumped into the
54
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:15,600
political prophetic arena because it builds. It's like crack. You know, when you have clicks and
55
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,160
you've got an audience and you've got cash flow and you have notoriety and you struggle in anonymity
56
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,920
for so long and then you found out that with a camera, you can prophesy to an unknown audience
57
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:32,560
or thousands of people hanging on your next word. It produces a temptation that most adolescent
58
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,960
prophetic ministries that didn't have that big a thing to start with fell into.
59
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:42,160
Now, Cindy Jacobs, Chuck Pierce, Dutch Sheets, you'll notice those that have already gone
60
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,240
through those seasons where they might have prophesied a president that didn't work out and
61
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:52,240
then they recovered. The season prophets were not all bringing out the pillows and the pom poms
62
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:57,760
about Donald Trump. It was a lot of new prophetic voices, but they kept on prophesying. That was
63
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:04,800
their mistake. They should have just got quiet. When Trump lost, the verse that God gave me was
64
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:12,240
David with Bathsheba. I mean, the baby is dead and he's praying and he's fasting and he's miserable
65
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,720
and then he's... Everybody looked at him and thought he's going to lose his mind when he
66
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,360
finds out the baby's dead. And as soon as he heard it, he washed himself, he shaved himself,
67
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:27,280
and he worshiped. I knew that when the election wasn't given to Trump, God was doing something.
68
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:31,360
Now, what God was doing, I didn't know. I had a very intimate time of prayer going, Lord,
69
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:39,520
if this man isn't there, I know enough about the world order to know. Our economy will tank,
70
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:46,400
our military will be humiliated, and our freedoms will be emasculated. This is not what you want.
71
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:52,560
I didn't think God wanted to do it. Well, I think that since then, Stephen, the roots of our movement,
72
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:59,680
which is citizen patriots, engaged Christians, have gotten stronger. The people that are getting
73
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,920
weak are the people living on the prophetic fringe, don't want to get involved with politics,
74
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:09,520
they don't want to get... They just want to have a revival without a reformation. And the move of
75
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:14,960
God's moving to pass them and moving to the reformation people, who by the way, we're in a
76
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,960
revival. There's more life now than we've ever had before. The battle is intense. But when you're
77
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:26,480
actually building with God's building, it puts an anointing on you that refreshes you while you're
78
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:33,680
in the warfare. Well, let's talk about this prophetic aspect of it, because as you know,
79
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:41,120
I wrote a book about it. The book, God and Donald Trump, was really my effort to put on the record
80
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:47,520
what happened with this prophecy. Kim Clement is the first one that I was aware of, and he prophesied
81
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:53,600
it long before Donald Trump had even shown up on the political scene, even as a possibility.
82
00:07:54,720 --> 00:08:00,640
And some of these things were kind of encoded, and you understood them in hindsight. And then
83
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:08,080
you mentioned Chuck Pierce and some others. And then you came along and called Trump the chaos
84
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:13,840
candidate. And I attribute to you the whole thing about Cyrus. Now, you may not have been the first
85
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,320
one to compare him to Cyrus, but you were certainly the one that seemed to popularize that.
86
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:25,200
Well, yeah, I was the first one. It was news to me when I heard it, because what happened was I was
87
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:32,240
with Kim meeting Trump in New York for the first time. Kim had a stroke and didn't show up. And
88
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:39,520
when I got home, his gift, it happened for like about 30 days, his gift zapped over on me. And
89
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:45,120
I'm starting to hear voices. I thought I was under an attack, because I'm hearing voices in my left
90
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,320
ear. The next president of the United States will be Isaiah 45. The 45th president will be Isaiah 45.
91
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:57,040
I'm going, oh my gosh, what is that? I looked it up in Isaiah. Isaiah 45 says, thus says, Lord,
92
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:04,880
thus says, Lord, to Cyrus. That's how I got that. And it was, and I realized later that Kim had a
93
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:09,200
mission to proclaim something. I think the devil tried to take, well, the devil did take him out
94
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:14,640
in a sense. He neutralized him. And then boom, an adolescent in this field suddenly is hearing
95
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:21,920
stuff. And what I heard was that. And in 2015, I said, and the media will have a term. And I heard
96
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:27,440
first, Trump derangement. And I wrote it and published it in 2015. I said, they're going to
97
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,640
meltdown and they're going to, minds are going to blow up because they cannot handle the fact that
98
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:38,480
God would use a person like that. Or let's put it this way. The church would have a problem with
99
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,840
God using Trump. The world just has a problem with Trump period.
100
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:50,160
I agree. And when you mentioned the media, I recently talked to Lauren Green at Fox,
101
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:56,080
and we discussed the fact that Trump was the darling of the media when he was a New York
102
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:02,240
billionaire, so-called playboy. You know, he was in all the magazines and all the TV shows. He had
103
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:09,280
his own celebrity TV show. They loved him. They had no problem with his personality, with his
104
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:15,760
lifestyle. It was only when he ran for office as a conservative that they started having a problem
105
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:22,240
with Trump. And so I think it's interesting. And the reason I wrote the book is because
106
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:28,000
there are too many prophecies, even ones that come true, they're not that well documented,
107
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,960
or they're not that well known because the media doesn't play it up. And I felt
108
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:40,880
that this was something that was prophesied. It actually happened. And I wanted to give God the
109
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:49,120
glory. But it was interesting that since then, especially with the second time around, you're
110
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:55,520
right. A lot of people jumped on the bandwagon. I don't hear a lot of prophecy now about the next
111
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:02,880
election. What do you hear? Well, and I believe they're wise because this is going to offend
112
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:08,480
some prophets, I'm sure. But I don't think God is telling people because I think that we end up
113
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:14,720
becoming, and here the word adolescence comes back again, we put our hope and our confidence in,
114
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:23,280
is Trump going to be president? Well, I think that's a smart assessment. If he is not in office,
115
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:30,480
Stephen, if he does not go in, I do the economics, I work with the economic field. The data says
116
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:37,280
that we are now a trillion dollars over budget on our credit card nationally. We are paying more
117
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:43,440
in interest than we are for the national defense. And that's going to only exacerbate. It's going,
118
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:49,840
we're going to probably have a serious meltdown going on in the next year. And if we don't actually
119
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:57,520
recover our supply side ability to manufacture and keep up with our debt and start to rein in the debt,
120
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:05,280
by 2024 and 2025, it's over. You can't catch up. At that point, it's almost like you cut the limb
121
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:10,400
off of the tree. It may still be green, but from that day, it's dying. The Brits nations,
122
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:15,040
40 nations are all getting away from the dollar as fast as they can. They see we're a house on fire.
123
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:22,400
So there's this realization that we have to have God's intervention, Stephen. That's why I get
124
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:27,920
frustrated. And when I hear about people, don't want to talk about politics. What in the world
125
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:34,960
are you talking about? The Antichrist spirit is taking over government where you don't resist the
126
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:40,880
devil. You're inviting him to control you. We'll control your speech. We'll control your your
127
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:48,000
faith. They're going after gateway punnet. They completely annihilated Alex Jones. Russell Brand
128
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,640
was the darling of the left until he started going conservative. Then they come out with all this
129
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:58,080
stories about him. They're locking up Peter Navarro. They've already locked up Peter Navarro.
130
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:02,880
They're locking up Steve Bannon. They want to lock up Donald Trump. They're going to announce it
131
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,520
three days or four days before the National Convention. I think they're going to try to
132
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:13,440
lock him up so that they could say you've got a convicted felon behind bars that we're letting
133
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:19,200
out to go talk to you. And this tells us that for you as a Christian to say, well, I don't want to
134
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:25,040
get involved with this. I'm divisive. You're dealing with the survival of your own church,
135
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:29,120
your own freedom, your own future. And I really believe everything's on the table right now.
136
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:35,840
That's why I'm 100 percent in the Holy Ghost in revival and in reformation. And God's calling a
137
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,800
line in the sand is going to happen this year. Either those prophecies about Trump with two terms
138
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:46,800
are going to be fulfilled or we're going to see America going from a divine discipline, I'm sorry
139
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:52,160
to say, into a judgment cycle. That doesn't mean we can't have revival. Doesn't mean we can't have
140
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:59,120
extraordinary experiences. It means it's not God's plan, but He'll help you survive. That's how
141
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:04,160
serious this is, which is why I'm so incensed even with the preachers and the pastors who are
142
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,560
being very coy now. You know what they do? We do these tours. Charlie Kirk does them. I do them.
143
00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:14,240
And we'll have like four, five, 10. He had 10,000. We've had like up to 5,000. And I find that a lot
144
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:21,360
of pastors that don't associate with us don't say anything against us. And I realize, oh my gosh,
145
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:26,400
they're like politicians. They don't want to alienate anybody. So they're just ignoring the
146
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:31,360
whole conversation. So if you're around leaders that aren't talking about what's happening
147
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:36,240
prophetically around the world and what's happening in the United States, I think you're
148
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:41,840
in the orbit of people that are dulling your hearing. Well, I agree with you entirely, but I'd
149
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:49,920
like you to articulate what the answer is. What can the person who's watching or listening,
150
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:57,920
what can they do or say? How can they pray? How can they get active? What advice do you have
151
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:04,800
when you go around on these tours? Well, very good. It's a great question. And so part of the answer
152
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:11,840
is we are saying there's only two things that you can focus on right now that'll make a difference
153
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,480
in moving the needle apart from prayer. I just had Lou Engel on yesterday. We've got a million
154
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,440
women, million men march on the mall. We're not calling it a march, but we keep calling it that.
155
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:27,040
And it's on Yom Kippur, the high holy day, to cry out to God for mercy for America. That's the
156
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:33,600
spiritual part. So I'm totally full tilt Pentecostal on intercession prayer and that. The other part is
157
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:38,400
it all comes down to getting out the vote and stopping illegal votes. Those are the only two
158
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:45,680
things that matter. And every state has its own apparatus for how it does that. But I've got a guy
159
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:51,920
that I've been I've been working with named Dr. Richards, who has this thing called a Eagle AI.
160
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:57,520
And Steve, what that does is it takes our my more geriatric age groups. I realize my people are like
161
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:05,120
50, 60, 70. So they're a little older in terms of that group that I relate to. But they will if they
162
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:12,480
have accessibility, we could hook them up so that from their home, they could block 100, 200, 300 or
163
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:19,120
400 fake votes from showing up. And when an election is determined by 40 to 100,000 votes
164
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:24,480
out of four or five swing states, you might be able to affect the future right from your desk
165
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:31,680
doing what you're doing. The other thing is to get out the vote effort. I grabbed a tool, which I
166
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:37,760
think you can download it now as an app called As One America. As One America. My gosh, Steve,
167
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:46,160
it gives you that it gives you access, the location of your neighbors who are low propensity
168
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:51,280
Christians, meaning they might vote, they might not, they might be I've had it, I don't want to
169
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:56,640
get involved with politics. It's the end times. You can't trust the election anyway. But those
170
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:02,720
those votes that are in your own backyard are just a matter of a phone call or a letter. You
171
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,920
could write a letter. We even can write a letter. We'll pay the postage. I got guys that will pay
172
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,560
the postage. Write a letter and encourage your neighbors and say, I've been thinking about you.
173
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:15,600
I'm in the same community. It's so important that you make a difference. And I just felt led to
174
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:21,040
tell you your vote makes a difference. You need to show up that a little step like that from your
175
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:29,120
home. And you can affect history. That's great. In fact, before we wrap up, I want you to tell my
176
00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:33,280
viewers how they can connect with you and your podcast, how they can see you on the victory
177
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:38,160
channel, the different the many things you're doing. But also be sure to repeat that because
178
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:43,680
I want people listen, I'm going to get that app, I'm going to do my part, even though I have a
179
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:49,680
platform and am involved in different ways. I want to get involved in my own neighborhood.
180
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:55,200
And also can't people volunteer to be poll watchers? Of course, and that's what that's what
181
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,200
the app does. It says, how do you become a poll watcher? How do you write a letter to the I will
182
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:03,920
pay the postage. I'll even pay the postage. How do you find the neighbor? I'll let you I'll give
183
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,920
you the phone number. How's that you can call them and buy them over for coffee, be a good neighbor.
184
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,400
Most of these people are Christian conservatives anyway. And Stephen, what I'll do is I'll put this
185
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:18,400
podcast on that app. It's called as one America. When this comes out, I'm going to feature at the
186
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:23,840
top of the app, because I can feature conversations because I'm trying to keep our tribe motivated
187
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:30,480
and focused as one America go to your app store. Now, my broadcaster Lance walnut.com forward slash
188
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:35,520
podcast, because I'm all over the internet. If they shut me down here, I pop up over there. It's
189
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:40,320
like whack a mole. But if you go to Lance walnut.com forward slash podcast, you catch me on real
190
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:46,480
America's voice right after Bannon on on the weekend. So you know, and they're locking him
191
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:51,360
up. And I'm not about that, Stephen, I mean, he's a great man with a fake January six committee
192
00:18:51,360 --> 00:18:56,240
hearing, he stood up to them. He said, you know, you guys wouldn't even allow one voice to speak
193
00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:02,800
up in defense of what we believe was going on that day. And they're locking them up. And we have got
194
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:07,040
to stand with the front line because this next man up when they get locked up, the next guy's got to
195
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:13,600
step up. And I take that personally, because I'm out in the public arena. You know, you talk about,
196
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:21,120
or we at least mentioned election fraud and that kind of thing. And I had an example up close and
197
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:27,760
personal, it had to do with my late mother whose vote was stolen. You know, this was obviously
198
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:35,120
before she passed away, but I moved her to assisted living. And in doing so she changed precincts. So
199
00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:41,600
even though she wasn't operating that well, I helped her, I picked her up, and we took her to
200
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:48,240
the polling booth or the polling place. She went in with her ID and they said she can't vote. And I
201
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,480
said, why? Because she's already voted. Well, how'd she vote? She voted absentee. I said, mother,
202
00:19:54,480 --> 00:20:00,880
did you vote? Well, she didn't think she could. At that point, Lance, she didn't have, she didn't
203
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:07,360
have it together enough to fill out a ballot, find a stamp, and find the mailbox to mail it.
204
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:15,280
Somebody, they had sent unsolicited ballots to her senior citizen place. Somebody had harvested
205
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:21,600
them, voted for her, and they did not expect somebody like me to show up. And there was nothing
206
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:26,240
I could do. You know, I wrote letters to the officials in my county and I live in a conservative
207
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:32,960
part of the state of Florida, and nobody seemed interested in one little old lady's vote being
208
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:38,480
stolen. And I just saw up close and personal that this has happened. We have to be diligent
209
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:45,840
not to let it happen. And, you know, I felt that I should say that maybe it'll encourage someone to
210
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,880
be more careful about votes being stolen. Then you can do something about me. What's really sad
211
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,040
about that is not only was your mother's vote stolen, but for all you know, she's going to
212
00:20:55,040 --> 00:21:01,440
keep on voting. So you got to focus on that. And yeah, I'll tell you what, and in some states,
213
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:08,960
in Michigan, we took 100,000 names off, and the corrupt government, sorry to say, the Democrat side,
214
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:14,400
reinstated the names. This is after you purge the names, they say, yeah, we know, but we're
215
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:21,440
going to put it back in. And so you have to literally be in the battle. And then at the same
216
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:27,040
time, we have to be buoyant, because what I've learned is you can only fight as strong as you
217
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:32,800
have joy. So that's why I think there's a revival. The prophetic pattern, Stephen, my final thought,
218
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:39,280
is don't look for the prophecy that's predictive. That's kind of like, that's not where the
219
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:44,880
prophetic anointing is right now. Look for the prophetic pattern of what God is doing,
220
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,320
because then you're going to be looking in the direction where the spirit's moving.
221
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:55,120
Cyrus was a world ruler, like Bolsonaro that rose up, like Trump that rose up, but now you've got
222
00:21:55,120 --> 00:22:02,080
Bukele, you've got, you've got in Australia, and like you said, in Argentina, we have a brilliant,
223
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:08,320
with a president now, we have Viktor Orban in Hungary, we have Poland, God's raising up Cyrus
224
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:14,000
Ruler. Stephen, when the Cyrus's came up, what happened next was God focused on rebuilding his
225
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,440
ecclesia. There is a church project going on right now. And I believe one of the great things that
226
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,920
people aren't talking about is the shaking of the church. We're seeing it with prominent and
227
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:29,680
well-known leaders that are being brought into the public gaze for things 30 years old or so.
228
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:35,760
But the shaking is happening in the ecclesia. Satan wants to shake the church, but God is using
229
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:42,640
it to build a new church. The Jews went from Cyrus to rebuilding the house for the nation. It was a
230
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:48,640
national temple. And then out of that, the walls and gates got restored. It's not happening all
231
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:54,480
over the country, but boy, it's happening right now in counties and in cities and in states where
232
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,560
people are gathering together and taking back their school boards. They're taking back their
233
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:04,080
personal liberty. And that's the global movement that is happening electorally. I think we're going
234
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,760
to see the walls and gates and the temple or the ecclesia rising up this year.
235
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:18,080
Or Lance, I would just want to thank you for being so outspoken and bringing a lot of meaning to
236
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:24,720
this. I've been in settings where you've shared the seven mountain thing and you could almost see
237
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:31,520
the light bulbs going off in people's minds. The Lord has given you a gift and a talent and
238
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,880
you've done so much good. And I just want to say how much I appreciate you. And do you have a
239
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,080
closing word and then I'll be back with a few thoughts at the end.
240
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,080
Yeah, I want to thank you for what you're doing, Steve. You were a pioneer in Christian media.
241
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:49,120
You looked at the media mountain and said, what's needed for the church? I was with Dinesh Desai
242
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:54,800
a week ago. He said, Lance, and Jordan Peterson said the same thing. What we need to do is realize
243
00:23:54,800 --> 00:24:02,160
we will not change 400 liberally funded universities that have their Marxist curriculum,
244
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:07,360
but you can create new digital universities that will rival them and be stronger than them.
245
00:24:07,360 --> 00:24:13,920
And so we need to create alternative systems. When reformation rises up, God raises up another
246
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:20,480
sphere to come against what won't change. And that new thing actually competes with and breaks up the
247
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:26,240
old thing. So we have to be thinking in terms of the entrepreneurial innovative spirit that is on
248
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,720
the body of Christ. Now more than ever, you can't be disheartened because of the fact that the
249
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:35,440
doors are opening for opportunity. Well, thanks for staying tuned. I hope you enjoyed what Lance
250
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:41,040
had to say. I believe that he gave us a lot to think about and to pray about. And I wanted to
251
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:46,080
call attention to a couple of the things that we mentioned. The purpose of the podcast, of course,
252
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,560
was not to push my own books, but they are available. And if you followed the Strang Report,
253
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:55,920
you know that I wrote God and Donald Trump. That was the one that we discussed, but I also wrote
254
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:02,720
Trump Aftershock about the seismic shifts that happened after Donald Trump was elected, and also
255
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:08,000
God Trump in the 2020 election. This was about four years ago, but you know, a lot of the issues are
256
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:17,280
still the same. This is available for a special price as a bundle on my website called stevestrangbooks.com.
257
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:21,920
And while you're at it, you can pick up a copy of my newest book called Spirit-Led Living in an
258
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:27,920
Upside-Down World, where I talk not about politics, not about Donald Trump, but what's happening,
259
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:33,200
where it seems like we are speeding toward the end of time, but we have to rely on the power of the
260
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:40,160
Holy Spirit, which is really the underlying theme of what I talked about with Lance today. He's
261
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:46,720
going to send this out to his list because he felt it's important. I hope you do too, so I hope
262
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:53,520
you'll share it with friends. Post it on X or on Facebook or wherever you post on social media.
263
00:25:54,320 --> 00:26:00,320
And also be sure to subscribe to The Strang Report. I'm encouraged every time I'm given a report
264
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:06,080
because the number of subscriptions is going up. And remember to tune in every Tuesday and Thursday
265
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:16,960
4 p.m. Eastern time for another edition of The Strang Report. Until then, God bless you.
