On February 14th, 2012 I heard the Lord early in the morning say to me "Obama will remain President for another four years!" So I wrote the following word of prophecy in my journal as the Holy Spirit continued. "I will revolutionize the Presidency with a man after my heart and not a heart after the nation. He will not care about public opinion but will align my country with my plans for the future. America is at her crossroads!" (see Jeremiah 6:16)
As I have reflected on this word over the last few months, I realized that for the first four years President Obama had a heart for the nation. He worked hard to keep our nation and the nations of the world from collapsing completely from a world wide depression greater than the 1930s. Despite, all the politics and rage against him... he remained focused because he had a heart for the nation. Usually, I am not a person who enjoys the political realm but there was something God had put in my heart regarding him becoming the President of the United States in the first place. God clearly spoke to me that President Obama was going to be used by God to (1) deal with the spirit of racism in America; (2) work toward the reconciliation of first nations people; (3) end America's exporting of its own colonialism culture; (4) and begin fighting Modern Slavery. Here's what has happened:
(1) In regards to racism - see Racism in Obama's America: One Year Later - ABC News
(2) In regards to first nations- President Obama's first executive order called for the reconciliation of our nation with first nations peoples. He also has agreed to sign the UN Resolution that calls on the Western Church to repudiate the "Doctrine Of Discovery" The United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII) in 2012, focused The Doctrine of Discovery: its enduring impact on Indigenous Peoples and the right to redress for past conquests (articles 28 and 37 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples)
(3) In regards to fighting colonialism - See the movie Obama 2016
(4) In regards to fighting modern slavery - have a look at this. "Clinton Global Initiative Speech"

I believe that the next phase of President Obama's presidency will cause a radical change in his relationship with God... He will become a man after God's own heart who will set the course of God's plan in action for this nations future. After all, if God could harden Pharaoh's heart, God can soften our President's heart. If God can use The Persian Leader Cyrus to set in motion Israel's rebuilding of the temple, God can use President Obama to lead the way to bring America toward it's God given design and purpose. It is not a "go back to" message- It's a go forward message. For those who call on America to go back I ask, "Go back to what?" Slavery? The Trail Of Tears? Segregation?
America's calling in the world is to be a "city on the hill," "a light to the nations," a nation that reflects the vision and values of the architect of our nation "William Penn" - with reciprocal liberty. I concur with GodTV's Wendy Alec's prophetic word to the American Church. Prophetic Word from Wendy Alec – November 12th 2012: "I sensed the Lord saying: It is time to stop. It is time for a complete turnaround of my people. It is time to pray. And as my people, as my church, rises up across the nation and the nations of this world to pray – Pray fervently for President Obama; pray fervently for the government; pray fervently for the White House That we will see in the land of the living – That we will see a change in the direction of the White House – That we will see a change – a transformation even of policies – And it will be My Hand that has wrought this change says the Lord
For my hand has been restrained, says the Lord – My Hand has been restrained because of the disobedience of my people – For there have been many prayers that have risen up to my throne but there has been prayerlessness for this government For I tell you, beloved son, beloved daughter that as you arise in prayer for this government – as you arise in prayer for this President – for this husband; for this father of children, for this President of the nation of America – That my hand shall once again be loosed to move upon the White House – upon the government – upon the President – in power – in glory and in might And as you lift up your voice in the day and as you lift up your voice in the night hour before my throne and pray for wisdom for this man – I tell you that even in an instant – I shall release wisdom – Even in an instant I shall release revelation – Even in an instant – his eyes shall be opened to things in the natural and things in the spirit realm that he has been previously blinded to – And I shall pour out My Spirit upon the White House –
And I shall pour out My Spirit upon Congress And I shall pour out My Spirit upon the President, and I shall pour out My Spirit upon this government – and shall pour out My Spirit upon this Congress, and there shall begin to come a softening – and the great divides shall start to dissolve – And one by one, there shall come a working together across the aisles – across the differences – across the issues – and My Spirit shall move at first in individuals – in one man – then in one woman – Then another, and another, and there shall be within the walls of Congress a spirit of reconciliation – a spirit of working together – and the walls of division shall start to fall – for there has been a stalemate in the spirit says the Lord – but no more
For there shall begin a healing of rifts says the Lord A healing of rifts. A healing of rifts between the Republicans and the Democrats. A healing of rifts that shall extend even from the Congress to Israel. For there shall even be a healing of rifts between President Barack Obama and President Benjamin Netanyahu.
And the spirit of Jezebel shall be rooted out of the White House – It shall be rooted out of the Congress. For I shall tear down and root out – And even certain men and certain women shall be removed from their positions. They shall be removed – And there shall even be removals from a high place – a place of great authority And in their place I shall position those chosen and appointed by my own hand. There will be Cyrus’ whose hands I shall use. And there will be Marys who hear my voice and who seek my face – But Lord how can that be? It shall be – says the Lord of Hosts – for child I am neither Republican nor Democrat – I am God, says the Lord of Hosts. Is a man’s heart not in my hands? Have I not said that that I move the heart of kings? So I wait for you beloved son – I wait for you my beloved daughter – Come rend your garments – come dry your tears and bring your supplications for this President –for this government before my throne – And it shall be – that even in a moment – Even in a day – You shall start to see things shift and change – People removed – people replaced – And I shall pour out wisdom in the night hour upon Barack Obama – And he shall hear a voice saying this is the way – walk ye in it And it shall be my voice says the Lord. And I shall put a hook in his nose to Israel. And I shall water the stony heart and I shall wash his eyes with my salve –the salve of my Holy Spirit. And I will break the bonds of intimidation from this President. For is it not that same spirit of Jezebel that has surely paralyzed his hands in this past term. That has kept his eyes from seeing...That has stopped his ears from hearing. But no more says the Lord of hosts no more shall it be For I shall raise him as a champion of the poor in this next term. And yes – he shall raise his voice as a champion for the poor and the weak and the helpless. And this is not of himself but it shall be of me. And he shall champion the poor. He shall champion education. He shall champion the common man. And I shall bring to him men and women after my own heart who shall speak to him of things that hold great weight with me. And he shall think deeply on these things. And he shall ponder them in his heart And there shall be many issues that he shall quietly address that may go unnoticed by the public But they will not be unnoticed by me. And I will place a steel rod at his back And he shall start to stand firm – and I shall grant him wisdom concerning economic issues. And yes there will be naysayers And yes there will be opponents. But as my people – but as my church bring him faithfully before me. I will grant him wisdom to deal with the Middle East. I Will grant him wisdom to deal with Israel And I will send my prophets. My prophets will speak a word to him in season concerning my people Israel. And I will grant him wisdom concerning Israel – wisdom concerning Jerusalem, wisdom concerning Iran.
Wisdom concerning Afghanistan. Wisdom regarding China. And a new mantle shall rest upon him in this term. A new mantle. A mantle of wisdom; a mantle of power; a mantle of strength, For it will be a new day! And many, many across America will say – is this the same man? How can it be? And I tell you - it shall be because I am God -
Prayer for President Barack Obama and the government of the United States
Beloved son – beloved daughter – I feel that the Lord says that he has been grieved, much grieved at the voices of criticism that have risen up from his own people – from his own church these past years – from those across the United States that he has raised up to intercede and stand in the gap for America. That the Father, Himself is now urging all of us who may have criticised, spoken words that were not beneficial over the President to do a hundred percent turnaround. To repent of our attitudes – justified as many feel they are, and to get down on our knees, ask for forgiveness and start to earnestly pray.
If we want to live a quiet and peace-filled life then we are exhorted by the scriptures to Pray for the President of the United States... (See 1 Timothy 2:1-4)
Rev. Billy Graham has recently written, "All of us care a great deal about our country. The intensity of opinions and feelings during the long political campaign showed the depth of that concern. Now with the votes counted, it is important to remember that whether we are personally pleased with the outcome or not, God wants us to pray for those chosen to be our leaders—at the national, state, and local levels. The Bible urges us to do so with both respect and thanksgiving (see 1 Peter 2:17; 1 Timothy 2:1–3). We must also remember that no election will ever solve America’s most basic problems. That is because the trouble, at its root, is in the human heart, and the only path to true restoration—for a person or for a nation—is through repentance. The Bible says, “Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord” (Acts 3:19–20, ESV). Only the Gospel, God’s Good News, has the power to change lives, heal hearts, and restore a nation."
I would like to recommend all my American church friends read a very strong prophetic book entitled, "American Church In Crisis" http://www.theamericanchurch.org/TACIC.htm
this book reveals Groundbreaking research based on a national database of over 200,000 churches reveals that the overall population growth rate far outpaces the church’s rate of growth. What does this mean for you, your church, and the future of Christianity in North America ? The American Church in Crisis offers unprecedented access to data that helps you understand the state of the church today. This book not only paints a realistic picture that confirms hunches and explodes myths, but provides insight into how the church must be renewed to reach our changing world with the hope of the gospel.
No longer will the American church have influence on the Political system, economic system or culture until we get back to doing what Jesus called us to do. Win the Lost. Disciple the Found. Heal the Hurting.
