The Merging Story
Ron & Nancy
Our City
a Ugandan Prophet
a
Vision
and the shocking devastation of America’s foundations as we knew it...
9 /11
This Story begins
1999, Ron and I, as the Appalachian servant leaders for
a national ministry, Mission America … we were part of a large nationwide City
Reaching Conference with leaders from across the US. At this conference we were
invited to a screening introducing for the first time, George Otis Jr, Sentinel
Group’s Transformations Video’s, documenting the incredible activity of God, on
three continents like none had seen before. (youtube Transformations Video’s 1
& 2) Awesome, Crazy Stuff.
Imagine a community where 92
percent of the population is born-again, where city jails have been closed for
lack of crime, where agricultural productivity has reached biblical
proportions. Imagine a city where 60,000 Christians jam the municipal soccer
stadium for all-night prayer vigils every 90 days, where a multi-billion dollar
drug cartel has been brought to its knees. Imagine a town where local bars have
been transformed into churches, where ancestral shrines have been destroyed,
where entire family clans have come to faith in Christ- Don’t imagine… Believe!
Sentinel
Group announced they were ready to premier the Transformations Documentary in
10 major cities across the nation. As great as this was Ron and I knew our city did not qualify as a premiere city.
2001, Fast
forward to a year later, we received an unexpected email from the office of
Sentinel Group and George Otis Jr. The email was an invitation to us, our city,
our state, to Premier this powerful Documentary of Revival in the World. Ron
emailed back and asked this question…. “Why?” “Why Charleston WV” (knowing we did
not qualify as one of the 10 major cities) The answer returned with a profound
declaration from George Otis Jr. ….
“Because God wants to stir the flame of
Revival in West Virginia”
It took us a minute to comprehend what God was saying
to us. Then we responded “Yes”
It was a huge task we were undertaking, so as part of the prepping, and to get an idea of expectations for the Transformation Video in our city I decided to fly to Orlando, Florida with our daughter, Charessa. Orlando was one of the major cities selected to hold a Transformations Premier Event.
I heard God say, Charleston, WV an “Apostolic City”
There
was much preparation required which brought together believers throughout the
state to "lay at the feet of our City" their gifts, talent, creativity and resources… Watching this historic
event come together that included 1000’s of people made an Impact on the City.
Back Story > My Story
Years before, there was an Ugandan Apostle John Mulinde that came to the US
During John Mulinde’s first visit to America from his homeland
of Uganda, John found himself unable to break into the presence of God in
prayer. When he eventually broke through to God, he was very surprised that,
despite all the ministries and intercessors in America, the Lord told him “There are layers and layers of darkness covering
this land like a veil separating My people from My presence and hindering their
prayers, quenching the spirit of prayer, quenching faith in My people and zeal
– putting them as low as it can push them.” John was very surprised to
find that the American church was operating within a suffocating environment!
John’s fellowship with the American pastors was affected, and he couldn’t eat
for many days.
2001The Prophetic Vision of what was to come…9-11 "The Last Word to America"
Fast Forward again to 2001, John, returned to the US, to share his story of revival in Uganda at the Transformation Conference in Orlando, but the story was interrupted.... and a reverent hush fell on the gathering that day as John began speaking of the prophetic
vision he saw of America. ...A Warning...
2001, Charessa and I were in this solemn gathering in Orlando. As the Transformations Premier Video concluded. I was both inspired and in awe seeing the effects of revival in the nations… then John Mulinde stood up to speak. He began as I remember announced in all humility that God
gives him "Words to Nations".
Then he soberly began to give what now is coined “The
Last Word to America”
I knew, somehow, this was something I need to pay attention to
and record. As John began to share, I took out a small notebook and drew pages of pictures of what he was saying. – no notes- just a drawing, sketching it out as
fast as I could.
The Vision (the italic comments are mine as I interrupted the vision)
The vision was of a white clay pillar about one meter high with
blue flowers molded into its base, having a beautiful round white cake,
beautifully decorated, on a brown plate upon the pillar.
This
all started moving away from him, and the further it moved, the larger it all
became. The pillar grew into a huge hill and the cake grew into a beautiful
giant city upon that hill. Out of the city came light, causing the sky to glow.
He heard the Lord say,
“That is the destiny of this land: to be a city set on a hill, a
lamp in the darkness, and a messenger of My word.”
I was sketching this picture he was painting with his words...
Then
the vision returned forward and reduced in size, becoming again the pillar and
the plate and the cake. The pillar cracked (the towers) and panic
gripped him. He cried out, “It’s going to break!” A voice behind him said, “I am looking for a man who will stand before Me on
behalf of this land, but I found none.” The cracks became big, and he
saw blackness inside the pillar. (the impact of the planes cause large
holes) As he screamed, “It’s going to break!” the pillar broke, and the
plate broke in two and the cake fell and broke into many pieces. The light
stayed in the air for a minute as a big glow, (hot steel burning_ and
then it gradually died. And there was darkness. (smoke filled the air with such
denseness it caused darkness to overtake the city)
(In my little notebook I continued sketching the event as being told not realizing I would see these pictures as an actual event within months)
John Mulinde's response to the vision when he first received it...
Following
the vision, John shook, wept and prayed as to what the vision meant. The Spirit
of the Lord told him, “The foundations of
this nation [America] have been broken: one after another, every foundation has
been broken. I am looking for a man who will stand before Me on behalf of this
land that I may not destroy it; that I may not give back to it as it has walked
before Me.”
He
prayed, “But Lord, America is filled with many big ministries of people
reaching out to the rest of the world cultivating prayer and bringing the
nations in coordination; how can You say there is no prayer, not enough prayer
here?”
The
Lord said to him, “The cry of sin in the land is louder than the cry of prayer.”
John
was sickened and continued to pray for days. He cried, “Lord, this is not the
last word You have for America! I want to hear Your heart for America!”
Then
the Lord spoke to him: “The cloud of judgment is hanging over this land.
God showed him three waves of devastation that was coming. – Selfish Standards/Government, Strength /Military Financial/Wall Street - 3 Waves/4 Planes
“One will be the demarcation against the spirit of mammon because My
people have made money a god in My place and have turned everything to rotate
around money. Their financial foundations, and everything
will come tumbling down. It will not only hit America: it will pull down the
economies of many, many other countries, they will come tumbling. When you
speak, speak out to My people, not only here, but everywhere you go: ‘Turn your
eyes away from the perishables and fix them on that which is everlasting.’ Tell
My people to fix their faith in Me, then when things fall apart, they will still
be standing. Wall Street/2 Towers
“A second wave that will hit this land: it will be the demarcation against
human pride in human achievements, what man has built, done, and been able to
put together. Because of that, he thinks he can be God and he thinks that he
can replace God in his lifestyle, he thinks he can set his own standards. The
judgment that is going to come upon that is by natural calamities; the time
will come when it gets so intense that whole cities will be razed to the ground
in a matter of days. Pentagon/Military
“The third wave is the demarcation of liberties that overthrow My
statutes and standards. In the name of rights and freedoms, My people have
rejected My standards, and I have chosen to institute their own standards for
themselves. Government/Capital
“At this moment, My hand is holding back the consequences of
their choices, but the day is coming when I will lift My hand and allow the
flood of the consequences of the choices they have made to come flooding over
the land; at that time there will be a cry for help, and help will not be
near.”
John
cried, “Is that your heart for America? I know You have something redemptive
for this land!”
A
long time passed before the Lord spoke to him: “Pray
that the remnant will be big and strong; that they will not fear to stand, and
that they will have the faith to claim this nation back. My purposes for this
nation are yet unfulfilled; I am not through with the land, but I want people
who will stand before Me on behalf of this land.”
My Story
September 11 2001, I was getting ready to join the pastors in
the City, Charleston WV, for prayer as we did weekly. The TV was on and I saw a plane flying into the 1st World Trade Tower in New York City. In the shock, many were thinking
it was an accident with a small plane but soon the whole of the tragedy would
unfold. The 2nd Tower was hit by a 2nd plane…. a 3rd
plane into the Pentagon and then a forth plane Flight 93 was not responding to the
tower’s desperate call only to realize it too had crashed as passengers determined
it would not make it’s destination (many think) the Capital of the United
States, with the brave souls shouting the now famous words of determination…. “Let’s roll”
As the vision foretold - The towers were on fire with gaping holes. Soon the 1st
tower broke and crumbled down and a few minutes later so did the 2nd
tower. Dust and black smoke filled the air on this once sunny day. Deep darkness
filled this Powerful City… the envy of the world.
As I watched with the world the Spirit of God said, “Go get your
Notebook and look at what you have drawn” To my shock, my crude sketching was
now the scene I was watching on TV that...
Fateful day -9-11.
