God Gave Me A Vision Of Why His Blessings Are Missing Our Cities

In 2009 I had spent several weeks fasting and praying in the Sanctuary of our church in Columbia, KY.  I had sought God for an answer to the problems facing our society as a whole.  Drugs, depression, anxiety, poverty, perversions, sickness, the problems we face as a nation.  So many churches on every corner in Kentucky preaching Christ and yet the crime rates do not go down.  The addiction rate does not go down.  The Christians are still sick and depressed and anxious beyond reason.  Many going through poverty and panic attacks.  How could this be when we have  churches on every corner?    We run a food pantry where several hundred people come through for food each week.  We have prayed for people and they were saved, healed, delivered their sickness lifted, burdens lifted, depressions gone.  But surprisingly some people would turn down prayer though they had great needs.  And Why?  Because we lay hands on people and pray in the power of the Holy Ghost.  They were taught by their church to be scared of the power of God.  They were taught that any true power to deliver must come from the devil because God doesn't work signs and wonders any longer.   And others attend churches that believe God can move by His power, but He usually doesn't, so what happens?  They go into church depressed and come out just as depressed.  They go into church with panic and fears, and come out in the same condition.  They go into church with sickness and come out just a sick.  They go into church with a since of hopelessness and come out just as hopeless.

As I sought God about the condition of our society and our churches God gave to me a vision.  I looked up and I saw the blessings of God raining down on our cities.  I was so happy to see the blessings pouring down from heaven like rain.   It was the answer to everyone's prayers, pouring down from Heaven.  But as these blessings fell from the sky, I looked and their was a sheet spread out over the cities of America like a canopy.   And the blessings of God were falling from heaven hitting this canopy that was over the cities and falling off.  This canopy was keeping the blessings of God from reaching the people.  It was a terrible thing to see.  Here were all these great blessings of God, falling from Heaven to the earth, and a large canopy spread over the cities kept the  blessings from reaching the people.   Under the canopy I saw the people and they were groaning in their sickness, in their poverty, in their pain, in their depression, in their drug addictions, they were crying out God save us and help us!    I grieved at the sight of  it and I said, "Lord, the canopy has got to go."  When I said this God took me to the four corners of the canopy.  And at each corner was a preacher who had staked down his corner   I listened to them as they were preaching.  They were saying, "We are the keepers of this city.  We keep this city safe from false anointing and false doctrines.  We know that God only used the Apostles and now his supernatural manifestations are done.  We will protect this city from anything supernatural and we will run it off, for we are the keepers of this city appointed by God."  They people came by and said to the keepers,  "Pray for me."  Pray for me, I need a miracle."  and the keepers would reply, "God's grace is sufficient, we live in our sufferings, it was meant to be, but yes, I will pray."    These men who were the Pastor of the largest churches in the community were holding this canopy over the city by their false doctrines and the blessings of God would hit off this canopy of false doctrines and the people would miss their answer from God.    They told the people that God finished doing signs, wonders and miracles through the hands of men with the last apostles.  They made the people afraid that if they sought the power of God that they would get a bad spirit, or false spirit instead.  They blasphemed the Holy Spirit by attributing the power of God and the gifts of God to the works of a demon instead.   They would not anoint people with oil, or lay hands on the sick as the Bible instructs but instead they made up a lie that God no longer does these things, and the people took them at their word.   Every time a move of the Spirit broke out under the canopy and reached the city these false preachers would rise up and say, "there are demons in this move, and snake in their hands."  They lied about the moves of God and called every one that spoke in tongues or healed the sick  devil worshipers and snake handlers, though none of this was true.  I cried out in anguish, God what will break this canopy and break through the lies of these false preachers.   Suddenly I saw a light come up through the middle of the city.  It was like liquid light and it shot up and broke through the canopy and it fell to the ground and the blessings of God poured into the community.  People were healed.  People were delivered.  People came off of drugs and alcohol and began to worship and praise God.   I rejoiced!  I said, "Lord the light that sprang us and broke through the canopy, was that a move of God?  Was it another revival?  Was it a third great awakening?"  The Lord replied, "No.  It was the WORD of GOD!"   I realized then that no manner of the move of the Spirit was going to change our world around us because the people in America have been taught to be afraid of the move of the Spirit.  It is going to take a revolution to change this nation.  A Spiritual Revolution where we go back to preaching the uncompromised WORD OF GOD, instead of preaching the interpretations of the Theologians and the Unbelieving.    Are you in the ministry?  Do you teach a class?  Do you Witness to your neighbor and your family?   Preach the Uncompromised Word of God and do what the Word says.  Anointing the sick, Practice the laying on of hands,  let the gifts of the Spirit of God flow, Keep the faith, and watch God restore this land.
