00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,080
I believe that we're headed for a socialist concentration camp style of governing.

2
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,600
There's so much going on in the world. People are saying, what's happening? Well, you know,

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:15,920
the Lord gave us the Holy Spirit and gave us the gift of prophecy and has anointed prophets to help

4
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:23,040
us discern what's happening. And my guest today is Joseph Z of Joseph Z Ministries, and he's a

5
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,880
prophet. He's from Colorado, but he's better known probably on Facebook and YouTube. And the Lord

6
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:34,480
speaks to him. And I talked to him today about what's happening in America, what's happening

7
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:41,360
with this upcoming election, how the Lord gave him a word about the shot heard around the world

8
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:48,240
just shortly before President Trump was shot at in Butler, Pennsylvania, about censorship,

9
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:53,280
about the World Economic Forum, about all the things that are in the news. And I believe that

10
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:58,960
he brings clarity and helps us to understand and then praise a powerful prayer at the end.

11
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:06,400
You don't want to miss my conversation with Joseph Z today on The Strang Report. Stay tuned.

12
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,520
I'm Stephen Strang.

13
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:23,920
Welcome back and welcome to Joseph Z. Thank you for fitting me in. You have a gift of the Lord

14
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,400
speaking to you and kind of showing you what's going to happen. And there's so much going on,

15
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:36,320
especially around the election. In fact, you're well known for calling this the do over year.

16
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:39,520
What did you mean about that and what do you think is going to happen?

17
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,240
Well, I'll tell you, Steve, first of all, what a privilege to be with you. Thank you for all the

18
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:49,600
work you do, Charisma Magazine, all the way to where we are today. Thank you for your voice.

19
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,960
And it's a privilege to be with you. But the things that I've seen regarding the do over year

20
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:01,200
involve 2020 and now. And at the beginning of this year, every year I seek the Lord, I pray.

21
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:06,080
And if he shows me something, I share it. If he doesn't, I don't. But at the beginning of the year,

22
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:11,360
I saw that this year would be a do over year. And of course, we see the chiefs in the Super Bowl

23
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,480
again. We see all these elements that are happening. You see Trump is now facing a woman

24
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:22,480
once again. There's just a lot of do overs that are taking place. But I believe God brings do

25
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,800
overs again and again until he gets his will accomplished. And so what I sense in this do

26
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:35,120
over is God's wanting us to contend for victory, that we win. You know, the battle's not over until

27
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,160
we win. And so a lot of people are believing a lot of different ways in all this. And I think when

28
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,800
it comes to who's going to win the election, how this is going to go, I believe in this particular

29
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,680
scenario, the Lord is saying it's in the hands of the church. If they will show up, I think there

30
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,120
will be victory. If they don't, I think we're going to go into a very, very difficult season.

31
00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:00,800
But I sense, I sense victory coming. I sense strength coming. Steve, I believe God wants to

32
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,120
see the goodness of the Lord magnified in the land of the living yet one more time.

33
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:10,160
Well, I believe that too. And, you know, I wrote a book about Trump called God and Donald Trump,

34
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,200
and we're not here to promote my book. But the whole purpose was about the prophecies,

35
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:24,880
mainly with Kim Clement, but also Chuck Beers and some others, Lance Wallnau, who fell before 2016,

36
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:31,520
that Trump would win. And it looked impossible up to and including election day. Yet he did.

37
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:38,000
Then there were a lot of prophets saying he'd win in 2020. You know, looking back,

38
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:45,120
I think a lot of people jumped on the bandwagon. And now here we are in the do-over year. And I'm

39
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:50,800
not going to get you to say who you think is going to win. I mean, God is in control of that. But

40
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:57,920
why do you think is going to happen if Trump doesn't win and Kamala Harris and the left get in?

41
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:04,720
Well, if they do get in, I believe that we're headed for a socialist concentration camp style

42
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,760
of governing. I think it's going to be digital prisons. I think that's where they'll try to take

43
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,720
us over the next four or five, six years. And they'll let people like the World Economic Forum

44
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:20,880
run free. They'll let the WHO run free, take away our medical sovereignty. We'll have all kinds of

45
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:26,240
wonderful narratives from geniuses like Klaus Schwab, who will be saying, you will get the great

46
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,440
reset and you will eat bugs and you will all do what I tell you and you will own nothing and love

47
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,960
it. We'll get that kind of mess. I don't think that's where we're headed in this next cycle,

48
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:43,040
Steve. I believe this. In 2015, I stood in Trump Tower speaking of do-overs. I was in the

49
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:49,200
Chicago in 2015. I was looking out the window. I was praying and the Lord began to minister to me

50
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:56,000
about the future of what America had in store. I was asking God, I said, is America going down? Is

51
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:02,080
this over with? And the voice of God came to me so powerfully and said, no, America has one more

52
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:08,640
round because the young lions are coming. I said, Lord, is Trump going to win? I was asking him this

53
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:14,240
in 2015 and I kid you not, the spirit of the Lord said to me very clearly, I've not graced you to

54
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:23,040
know that at this time, but I have spoken to Lance Wallnau. When I was in Chicago in that place,

55
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:29,920
I recently saw Lance in the location I was standing when the Lord told me, I told Lance

56
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,160
and he was in front of the clock tower out the window. He was standing in front of the window or

57
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:40,080
sitting in front of the window with the clock tower behind him in Chicago and that do-over word came

58
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:46,560
back to me again. I believe we are in for a do-over season and if we show up, I'm very,

59
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,880
very convinced that we will see victory with Trump if the church rises to this occasion.

60
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,280
I believe we can push darkness back one more round. I believe we can push it on its heels

61
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:02,720
and we can maintain a future for our children, at least for another few years. I believe we

62
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,720
can push it on its heels, at least for another few years. That's what I see.

63
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:13,600
Well, I've had the opportunity to interview four presidents and I've been covering politics

64
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:21,200
closely since the Reagan era. And one thing that I've observed and I want your opinion about this

65
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:27,120
is it seems that Christians are generally kind of passive and you hear some of the polls that as

66
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,360
a result of the

67
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:37,920
Trump administration, they are afraid of the word of born again Christians of all types,

68
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:45,280
don't even go to the polls. Now, I don't know how valid those polls are, but I just know from

69
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:52,080
my own circle that there's a lot of apathy. There are a lot of spirit-filled people that don't want

70
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,520
to do anything, but they keep their mouth shut. They don't go to the polls. They're afraid of

71
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:04,320
being political. And I think they're being afraid of being canceled or they're afraid that people

72
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:10,320
will hassle them or something. Why do you think this is and how do we turn that around?

73
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:17,360
Well, I think we've had years of bad teaching, soft teaching. And the only thing worse than no

74
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:22,800
Steve, as you know, is bad teaching. And when you have that kind of culture, I call it the pretty

75
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:28,400
pony gospel culture, where people just really look at it and say, oh, it'll be fine. Here's the three

76
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,120
steps to a better you. And don't worry about these things. They'll take care of themselves.

77
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:38,960
And we've bought into this lie of the separation of church and state. But the state did not

78
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:45,120
cooperate with that principle of separation of church and state in 2020 when the state decided

79
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:50,800
to mess with the church. And so what I see happening is a lack of teaching, a lack of

80
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:58,320
instruction. And they always cite Romans 13 that we've got to abide by the governing authorities

81
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:03,680
that God has put into place. But if you get down to about verse three of Romans 13, it talks about

82
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:09,520
these are ministers unto righteousness for your good. They're there to do good by the people.

83
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:15,360
But what happens when these ministers or people in authority pervert the very purpose by which God

84
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:20,720
put them in there? In other words, they turn from agents of good for the people, and they turn into

85
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:26,000
agents of evil against the people. What do we do? Well, we need to enforce the laws of the land,

86
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:31,040
and that's constitution in the United States of America. And I like to say it to the people of

87
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:36,960
God or preachers and everybody, right now, your house is on fire. And if your house is on fire,

88
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,920
you put it out. You got to put it out. And when we're looking at the nation right now,

89
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:48,000
there are things that are literally on fire in our nation and in the governmental structure of

90
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,280
things. And instead of hiding and watching and tucking and covering, we need to speak out

91
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,720
and step up during this time. And I think that we can make a massive difference. So

92
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,880
apathy comes from a lack of good teaching. Apathy comes from a lack of spiritual fathers.

93
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:08,400
As it says in Corinthians, though you have 10,000 boy instructors, you have not many fathers,

94
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,920
and fathers are those that lead by example, that you can imitate and step up. I personally

95
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,160
believe this. When you really know the Spirit of God, you'll say what Jesus said to Herod. You tell

96
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,880
that fox that today I'm going to do the miracles of God, and I'm going to go to this place and

97
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:28,880
that place, and then I'll be perfected. Or John the Baptist, who spoke up when he should, and spoke

98
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,840
out in politics. Or Paul, saying, I want to go to Rome and meet with Caesar, because he wanted to

99
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,400
bring the truth. So I believe we don't need to make the whole message about politics or make the

100
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,600
whole message about, you know, let's get our pitchforks and torches and storm the castle.

101
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:49,520
But we definitely need to be salt and light and influencing this place, because it's not just

102
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,800
about the gospel, it's also preaching the kingdom and bringing influence into all these spheres. I

103
00:09:54,800 --> 00:10:02,320
think it's very, very important. And we've given up our rights as the church, and those who forsake

104
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,920
worthless idols, or those who regard worthless idols, Jonah said, forsake their own mercy.

105
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,480
And we need to get away from looking at worthless things and start to look at what matters, and

106
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,160
that's the future of our children.

107
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,760
I agree with that. And I believe, or at least I hope, that the pendulum is starting to swing the

108
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:26,320
other way, partly thanks to ministries like yours, Lance Wallnau, you know, there's others that we

109
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:32,960
could name. But I don't think we're going to get that paradigm shift of people standing up and

110
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:38,080
going to school board meetings or writing letters to the editor or whatever the current equivalent

111
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:45,920
of that is between now and the election. But we can motivate people to go vote, even if it's a

112
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,440
week before the election.

113
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,080
That's right.

114
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:53,840
How can, we have other things to talk about, but I think that the discussion is leading away. I

115
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:59,120
want to know your opinion, because I want my listeners to know it. And to some extent, I want

116
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:08,400
to know too, how can we motivate people who might stay home, who say, who've heard too many bad

117
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:15,200
things about Donald Trump, don't want to vote for him because he does mean tweets. You know, I'd

118
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:23,200
like to know how mean tweets equal some of the idiocy that's on the left with drag queens

119
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:30,640
teaching children, transgender surgeries. You know, I mean, there's a list a mile long. I don't

120
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:37,200
understand it, but yet there are people, I know people that say they're going to vote independent

121
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,400
or not vote at all because they don't like either candidate. How do we motivate those people?

122
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,960
Well, I think it's a lack of information. And I think it's just, we've got to begin to speak out

123
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:53,040
as much as we can and honestly move them the best we can. But the bottom line is, is that, you know,

124
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,120
I say it this way. I call them the wicked lizard overlords that are really, you know, run by their

125
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:05,440
goblin masters, because most of these people that are just coming across with lunacy and just

126
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:11,040
lulling the culture to sleep like the pied piper and saying, follow us down the happy trail here

127
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:17,360
to your demise are really bought and paid for by nations like China. A lot of them really are.

128
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:23,200
And so what we've got to do is we've got to confront this type of apathy. And I guess the

129
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:28,240
only thing we can do is preach it from the rooftops, say it as strong as we can and trust

130
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,520
that revelation knowledge will break through. We do our part and the spirit will do his part by

131
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:41,440
waking people up. And boy, a man or woman with a revelation is not at the mercy of a culture going

132
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,400
mad. And we've got to get them a revelation. And that comes through preaching. Okay, that's good.

133
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:54,960
I want you to say it again. A man or woman with a revelation. If you have a revelation from God,

134
00:12:54,960 --> 00:13:00,320
like a word from the Lord, you're not at the mercy of a culture going mad. Now, will the church

135
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:06,080
survive, Steve, if the nation goes down? Yeah, the church will be here. We will rise up, we'll

136
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:12,240
preach the gospel under intense persecution, under duress. But we don't have to see that right now

137
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:18,640
because the church is so busy regarding worthless idols, meaning the wrong messages, the wrong

138
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:24,800
things. The litmus test was really when Roe v. Wade got overturned. When Roe v. Wade got overturned,

139
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,680
so many churches didn't celebrate because they called it a complicated issue. And so,

140
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:35,520
it's a complicated issue. It is not a complicated issue. We need to be celebrating those type of

141
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:40,160
victories. And the Lord showed me in 2020 that the Supreme Court would overturn Roe v. Wade,

142
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,080
and there would be an earthquake politically. And then Brett Barrett came out and said,

143
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:49,840
politically, this is an earthquake. And I believe that gave us mercy and a longer round of mercy

144
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,960
on this nation. But I think that we're running out of that time again. And Steve, I got to tell

145
00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:00,720
you, I believe if we begin to rise up and speak and celebrate when God brings us victory, I believe

146
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,640
that there will be a supernatural longevity to this land. At the beginning of the year, I heard

147
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:10,080
the words, it's either going to be fire for this nation or Nineveh, fire or Nineveh. And for

148
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:15,840
national repentance to happen, I think it would be a lot like 9-11, right on the heels of September

149
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:22,720
11th, 2001, when the nation softened its heart. When a nation just begins to return to its roots,

150
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:28,240
national repentance, when it begins to soften and say, wait, we need to tender our hearts towards

151
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:33,440
the Lord. We need to get in a position of saying, we need help here. I think if that begins to

152
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,280
happen, even a little, I think mercy will be extended further for America.

153
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:44,160
Well, I hope you're right. And I do know that the Lord speaks to you. In fact, the Lord gave you a

154
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:49,520
word that turned out to be prophetic. It was the shot heard around the world. Of course, it was

155
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:56,080
a short time later that there was that assassination attempt on President Trump. And I mean, it's just

156
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:03,200
a miracle that he turned his head at a split second and survived that, which, humanly speaking,

157
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,440
I believe that the fact that God spared his life means that God has a plan and purpose for him

158
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,080
to be here. But regardless of that, the question I have for you is,

159
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:20,880
that doesn't seem to be in the news much anymore. There doesn't seem to be any kind of investigation.

160
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:27,840
Did this person act alone? How could he have gotten up on the roof with nobody finding him,

161
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:33,200
et cetera, et cetera? Almost like there's some kind of censorship. What do you think is going on?

162
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:38,320
I think you're nailing it right on the head, Steve. I think it is censorship. I think that

163
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:43,200
the Babylonian system, these people, they want you to be quiet about it. They don't want to talk

164
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,600
about it. They don't want to talk about it. They want to bring their agenda forward. But the good

165
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:53,040
news is there's a grassroots uprising of people that are flooding through the gates right now.

166
00:15:53,040 --> 00:16:00,080
I believe we're way ahead in the polls. I did see that on June, I think it was June 7th. June 7th,

167
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,880
I saw the shot heard around the world and there would be a redemptive instability that would come.

168
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:12,640
Then it was the actual morning of it on July 13th. I heard eight hours before that terrible event

169
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:17,760
happened, I was live and I said, I hear the shot heard around the world and it'll be like Paul

170
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:24,320
Revere is going out to bring a message as well. I believe that took place in 2022. I wrote on my

171
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:31,360
whiteboard prophetically while we were alive that 45, they would try to do JFK 245 with an assassination

172
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,040
and then blame Iran. I wrote that on the board and that it was the spirit of Antichrist. That's

173
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,200
really what we're fighting because the church thinks it's just politics. We're fighting the

174
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:47,040
Antichrist that wants control and it wants to tell us to sit down and shut up. What we need to say is

175
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:54,080
no, actually you move. We need to do it through the Holy Spirit with power and be absolute bold

176
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:59,360
truth speakers. That's why I like you, Steve. Well, I want to ask you about the church. You say the

177
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:04,640
church and of course the church is everything from the Roman Catholics on one end to the,

178
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,920
what would be the other end? Maybe the Pentecostals. There are a lot of

179
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:17,360
people who go to church. We call it the mainline church that barely emphasize salvation.

180
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:26,480
We don't want to judge them. Then even within Protestantism, there's a lot of cessationists

181
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,560
who believe that all this stuff is for the early church, who actually fight

182
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:35,040
the work of the Holy Spirit. Then you have a lot of Pentecostals and Charismatics who say they

183
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:44,400
believe it, but there isn't much to show for it. It's more like a doctrine. Once you start

184
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:51,840
getting everything buddy off, why is it a small remnant? Who is the church and what's going to

185
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:59,920
rise up? Also, if we actually believe in the power of the Holy Spirit and if the scriptures say,

186
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:03,600
speak to the mountain and see it removed, why do you think we don't see more of that?

187
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,840
Well, I think when the church was birthed in the book of Acts, I think the devil knew he

188
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:13,440
couldn't beat it, Steve. He did the next best thing. He joined it. He joined the church

189
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:18,800
and denominated the nation and began to separate people from one another. He denominated it. He

190
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,640
began to put denominations in different places. We do this, we don't do that, we do that.

191
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:28,640
The number one superpower in the world would be a united body of Christ, which is really the

192
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:36,960
ecclesia. When you recognize that Jesus said it is upon that foundation, the ecclesia, that the gates

193
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:43,600
of hell cannot overcome it. The devil, joining the church through ideas, modes, understanding,

194
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:50,080
he tried to break apart the totality of strength that the church could have. That's the fight we're

195
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:55,600
having. When people say, tongues isn't for today, the power is not for today, they get into all this

196
00:18:55,600 --> 00:19:01,600
sensationism and all that. I think the devil says, amen. Amen. We need a powerless church. That way,

197
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:06,720
I can just keep doing whatever I want. You guys will try to intellectualize. This is the devil

198
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:12,720
talking. Try to intellectualize him out the door. He will try to say, you can just intellectualize

199
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:19,280
me away. He'll never go away until power shows up. That power comes through a united ecclesia

200
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:24,960
that says the gates of hell can't touch this scenario. You move. I believe that's why. He

201
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:30,080
joined the church and he brought confusion and a mixture of doctrine. Power is the thing that'll

202
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:38,320
right-size that. I have a question that you've probably not been asked before, but I'm a few

203
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:46,640
years older than you. I was a child in the 1950s. I remember the Pentecostal. Pentecostalism was

204
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:53,600
really kind of waning. It was kind of getting dry. Churches were not growing. I remember the grown-ups

205
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:59,840
praying for revival. They would weep and pray for revival. Revival to them was people coming to

206
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:07,840
their Pentecostal churches. That did not happen. What did happen was the Charismatic movement in

207
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:20,000
the Roman Catholic Church in 1967, the Jesus movement, which started in 68 or 69, and the

208
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:25,600
Jesus movement, the Charismatic movement, and the Roman Catholic Charismatic movement that were

209
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:32,160
like outside Pentecostal churches. Now, what happened according to my view, and I'll turn this

210
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:37,200
back over to you because I want to know your opinion after I set up this question, is that the

211
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:45,520
Pentecostals saw that God was using people outside their circles, and the Charismatic movement revived

212
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:49,760
the Pentecostal churches. All the Pentecostal churches that grew were the ones who embraced

213
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:55,920
the new Charismatics. So, my question is this, Joseph. Why is it going to take now? How do you

214
00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,720
see the Lord waking up the church? Because I don't think it's going to be the way that we're

215
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,840
hoping and praying and thinking it's going to happen. I think that's great. I think if things

216
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:11,760
are too small, Steve, men fight. But if things become big enough, men will unite. And what I

217
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:18,240
believe will happen is that we're going to come to such a crisis, such an existential threat to the

218
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:23,920
church and the future, that it might just be enough. When Goliath showed up and he went,

219
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:29,040
fi, fi, fo, fum, and he said, give me your best fighter. Come on, give me your best.

220
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:34,000
I believe that it produces a David. I believe it produces warriors that look at the darkness and

221
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:39,520
they say, you know what? We're not backing up. There's some people, and I believe this is coming

222
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:45,040
now, that just don't know how to lose. There's some people that are anointed by the Spirit of God,

223
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:50,800
and they just don't know how to fail or lose. They're anointed to win every time. And I believe

224
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:55,360
God's bringing that together because it's getting so serious. The threat is getting so big that I

225
00:21:55,360 --> 00:22:00,160
believe people will look past denominational lines. They'll look past things and say, okay,

226
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:06,160
let's go fight about that later. But I think what we can do is take this territory and push back hell

227
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:12,400
for this generation that's coming. So I think that the native tongue of the uninspired is criticism,

228
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,640
Steve. And I believe criticism is going to be one of those things that they say, you know, it's not

229
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:21,040
the fruit of the Spirit anymore. So let's just go ahead and actually be godly and let's win this

230
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:26,080
generation for our children. I think we can do that, Catholics to Pentecostals to all of them.

231
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:31,120
Well, praise God. I hope you're right. I hope I am too.

232
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:38,960
Today, I was interested in finding out about what you believe that God is saying. I hope that people

233
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:44,000
that are watching this will share this with people. We need to make this go viral. People need to know

234
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,560
this. But we have a few more minutes and I want to ask you something I haven't had the chance to ask

235
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:54,400
you about. And that's about your trip to Turkey, where you actually visited Noah's Ark. Now, why

236
00:22:54,400 --> 00:23:00,080
would you have made that long trip? And what did you discover? You know, it's interesting, Steve,

237
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:05,360
we have so much going like yourself. I don't know how you keep up with it at all, but we have so

238
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:10,560
much going and the Lord spoke to me and said, first of all, I want you to go with Rick Renner to the

239
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:16,240
seven churches in Turkey. And I thought, I don't have time for this. We got a lot going. And the

240
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,400
Lord spoke to me, said, I want you to go there. And then it was going to end with Noah's Ark. So

241
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,880
we went to the seven churches of Turkey, went through all of it. This actually began, and I'll

242
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:29,280
sum this up quickly, but this actually began about two years ago. I was in a meeting. I heard the

243
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:34,560
Spirit of the Lord say to me nearly audibly in the meeting, Steve, come up here, come up higher,

244
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:40,000
come up where I am. I said, Lord, what are you talking about? I know Revelation four, from there,

245
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:45,520
one morning, several weeks later, the Lord said, go to the top of Pikes Peak. I stood on Pikes Peak

246
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:50,800
and the Lord said, this is America's mountain. And I found out when you sing the song Purple Mountain

247
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:55,840
Majesty, it's Pikes Peak. And that was America's mountain. So the Lord said, come up higher,

248
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,440
put me on America's mountain, and then sent me to the seven churches in Revelation.

249
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,600
As I'm going there, he said, he who has an ear to hear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the

250
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:09,520
churches. I'm doing a thing no one would believe if it was told to them in the United States.

251
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,240
And after that, I said, okay, what is the word, Lord? What is the word? And then at the end of

252
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:21,200
this journey, I ended up in the mountains of Errat, plural, in Eastern Turkey, Armenia, on the

253
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:26,880
Iran border with Rick Renner. And we're standing there and I'm on this structure that people believe

254
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,840
is Noah's Ark. And I believe it's Noah's Ark, the Deir Eupenir site. I'm not here to argue that. I

255
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,640
just really personally believe it is. And as I was standing there, that is when the word of the Lord

256
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:42,160
came to me for what I believe is coming next for the United States, because I just had the word,

257
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,480
come up higher, go to the top of Pikes Peak. Now I have an ear to hear and go through all the seven

258
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,680
churches and I'm sending you as a watchman from America, back to America. And by the way,

259
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:58,560
this happened right, we left for this journey when that solar eclipse happened back on April the 8th.

260
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:04,240
We went for 40 days on this journey, Steve, 40 days. And as I'm standing on Noah's Ark on the

261
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:10,000
last of that journey, the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me and said, I'm bringing you through a time

262
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:18,000
of redemptive instability, redemptive instability. Just like Noah rose above all the flood and the

263
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:23,040
do-over and the destruction, there's a redemption that's going to take place and a do-over. I

264
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:29,040
believe we're on a four-year redemptive instability and I believe God wants to have a do-over.

265
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,760
I believe that if we see the goodness of the Lord come into this next moment here, this fall,

266
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:38,560
that I think we will see that. If we don't, the end will just come quicker and we'll preach the

267
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:43,440
gospel and we'll all be high-fiving in the air. That's a very good way to look at it because it's

268
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:49,600
like Bob Mumford said, and probably others have said, we've read the book and we know who wins in

269
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:58,880
the end. We believe that. And in fact, if we believe that the millennium, the thousand years of peace,

270
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:04,960
is going to happen after the seven years of tribulation and the other things that we read

271
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:10,480
about in the book of Revelation, if that's the case, the quicker all that bad stuff happens,

272
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:19,440
the quicker we get to the thousand years of peace. I think most of us, at least I grew

273
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:24,960
up, and I've said this before, I grew up thinking that all this stuff would happen long after I was

274
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:34,400
dead, but it seems like something is happening. And in fact, I'll just mention Jonathan Cahn's book

275
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,200
that just released last week. It's one of the top selling books in the entire country. And he talks

276
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:44,480
about the end of time, first time he's dealt with this. And he says that the Israel Hamas war,

277
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:51,040
the ancient struggle between the Israelites and the Philistines is leading up to the dragon in

278
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:57,760
the book of Revelation. I mean, it's amazing what he has to say. And I just throw that out there

279
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,760
because I know that people are so interested in it kind of tied into what we were saying about the

280
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:07,440
end of time. Jonathan's remarkable. He's remarkable. And it's amazing how the Lord shows him these

281
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:12,400
things, just as it's amazing that the Lord shows you things. And really don't we believe that if

282
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:19,440
the Holy Spirit dwells within us, that each of us can hear from God and prophesy. Most of us don't

283
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:27,280
walk in that, but we can. So as we wrap up, I'd like for you to pray. Pray for our viewers,

284
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:32,880
but also pray for America. Pray for this election that's coming up. However you feel led, please

285
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,880
pray. We'll end with that, and then I'll come back with a few closing remarks.

286
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:42,240
Lord, I break a chicken spirit off of every preacher that's listening to the sound of our

287
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:48,640
voice. I break a spirit of fear, intimidation of some thug demon spirit that's trying to push

288
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,920
people into a place of intimidation. I break that off every viewer. You don't have to be afraid.

289
00:27:53,920 --> 00:28:00,560
I bless you. I speak peace over you, boldness over you, strength over you, because even on a bad day,

290
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:07,360
you're anointed to be the very best there is. God has called you to break yokes, break shackles,

291
00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:12,160
and go all the way to seeing the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. And I release that

292
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:18,160
over you. I release healing. I release mental clarity. I release the goodness of God in every

293
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:24,320
area of your life. And I come against this crisis fatigue that has fought believers. It's time to be

294
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:30,640
bold. It's time to lean in. I give you permission to not fear, to not worry, but to show up and do

295
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:36,560
all God's called you to do. You're blessed, and what God has blessed cannot be cursed. We got a

296
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:42,880
bright future in Jesus' name. I bless you all. Amen. Wasn't that a powerful prayer? I hope that

297
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:48,400
you prayed along with Joseph Z. I hope that you will share this with others. If you like these
