More about The Olive Press 

America 

08/21/2021

I saw  what I thought to be an olive, being pressed and squeezed in between two hands…gently at first, then more and more intensely until I saw oil begin to come from the olive. I knew this was the Church.

Still more and more the olive was squeezed, almost to breaking point… And people began to scream - to shout - to cry out to the Lord…but these cries were different - cries like I had never heard before…these were cries that were coming up from a place of pressure.

Exodus 3:7-8

It was from this place of weakness and brokenness that I saw the anointing oil was now flowing freely and unhindered from the Body of Christ…and it was also from this Place that the Bride of Christ began to emerge. The Place where we were, had now become a place of purity and holiness…an aroma of Life in the midst of the stench of death. 

And The Lord gave me this scripture - 

“We are hard pressed on every side,but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.” 2 Corinthians 4:8-12

O2/02/2022

It is better that America goes through the olive press now (2Cor.4:8-9), rather then the wine press later (Revelation 14:19). Better to be pressed like an olive, than crushed like a grape (Matt 21:44). Can we not see the Lord’s mercy in this?

What will this look like?

02/20/2022. I only saw a fraction…and only caught a glimpse: It was just after Church on the Lord’s Day: I was looking at the massively long lines of cars, waiting to get in at one of the massive number of restaurants in Bowling Green. Suddenly- and for just a second - I saw something very different. The lines of cars disappeared and were replaced by lines of people; these were no longer waiting to get a table in their favorite restaurant…they were waiting to get basic foodstuffs to live!  

I thought about John ch.6.(Feeding 5000): The great and unorthodox Feast of Tabernacles taking place on the hillside…the people that Emmanuel fed - that He “tabernacled with”…and yet they failed to make the connection with Deuteronomy 8:1-4

They did not recognize the Manna from Heaven  because their  bellies were full of the substance of the earth. 

It is the same with the western nations. We will not truly recognize or know the fullness of the Lord, until the earthly things that, (even we Christians), clamor for, are for a season, brought down 

02/10/2022

“I will for a season, bring down the “American way”, so that the people can recognize MY WAY.”

Is there another way for this nation? I honestly don’t believe so. Every high and lofty thing must come down. The original Foundation Stone of the fear of the Lord (Proverbs 9:10) must be brought up from the ground if people are to experience the true unveiling of the Lord Jesus Christ.

America - From the Great Olive Press to The Great Awakening 

This is most powerful thing I have ever seen in my life…

Part I

America’s great upheaval…(the shaking of a nation)

I saw the Land all over America, as if in massive upheaval - like soil being turned over by a huge rotavator, ready for seed baring. This seemed to be happening throughout the nation. What was causing this…?

I saw what I thought were the hands of the Lord, bringing up a flat stone from deep within the ground; whether this was happening quickly or slowly I could not tell…but I could see it coming up. The earth around was shaking, cracking, being churned up in great mounds…all over the nation. I could hear the noise, like an earthquake. Everything that had been built by human hands, to cover over of this Foundation Stone was breaking up and falling away…I saw many great monuments (monuments of Finance, Education and others) built to the glory of man that were lifted up by the earth and toppled. The devastation could not be ignored. It was everywhere - because people everywhere had bowed down to what these monuments stood for - and bad fruit had been produced. (I believe this upheaval was more SYMBOLIC than literal)

~~~02/10/2022

“I am and will shake the great monuments of humanism in this nation…” (I thought about Washington DC)

“…and uncover its original Foundation Stone: For I remember the prayers and supplications offered up to me…” (I thought about the year 1620 and a storm battered schooner, landed at Plymouth Rock; a small group of pilgrims from England, who had risked life and limb to find religious freedom, on these beautiful shores). ~~~

In the midst of the churning and upheaval, as the original Covenant - the foundation Stone was coming up, everything that “We the People” thought we knew…that we had in our foolishness relied upon, was being overturned…And  it was as though the Land itself was finally allowed to breathe, great heaving gasps.

Then as I looked at this Foundation Stone of 1620, something like scales came off my eyes and I realized I was actually looking at the Bible - the Word of God…(because that was the foundation of the puritans who originally made this covenant with God!)

~~~02/10/2022

”You have forgotten - yet I have not. You have placed pagan pyramids over this sacred Covenant. (Again I saw Washington DC)…”But in the end, because of the prayers of My people, I will uncover this foundation and bring up the stone, that I may bring Salvation over this Land…and from here to the ends of the Earth.”~~~

“A nation is not saved by its Constitution…but by the Word of the Living God.”

The Constitution…

I saw 1787 - the people’s document for the people - The Constitution of The United States. It fell down upon this foundation Stone, the Word of God…and was immediately broken into pieces! 

…And the Lord gave me Matthew 21:44: “Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces (the repentant); 

anyone on whom it falls will be crushed (the unrepentant).”

…So the Constitution fell, and was broken…And repentance hit the United States of America! 

Part II

America’s Great Repentance - (The death of a nation - see: John 12:24)

As the upheaval of the foundations of America continued The people began to fall before the Lord, and were immediately broken by the conviction of the Holy Spirit. First the believer - then the unbeliever! As the great shakings continued, more and more of the great and beloved nation seemed to fall and surrender to the refining of the Olive Press…Until finally the Foundation Stone (The Word of God…the fear of God) was lifted up and set in place. Many would not look upon it or receive it. But many others did look upon it - and were cut to the heart. It was as though the USA had almost been turned completely upside down! The Great American Dream machine*** also came to a grinding halt. It was to many, a tremendous loss…the death of America! - but…John 12:24. 

And there was smoke and ashes…

***See

https://undergod714.blogspot.com/2022/02/word-great-american-dream-machine-at.html?m=1

…But something much greater and more powerful seemed to have risen up from the ashes of the collapse of the machine. Something had changed!

From the smoke and ashes I heard the sound of children, fathers, mothers, many different generations in total surrender…praising Jesus together. From the midst of the devastation…the heart of America, came the extraordinary power of Family. I heard teachers, police officers, restaurant workers, nurses, so many people…as if awakened from a deep comatose sleep, or taking a breath for the first time in their lives! Once they were blind…now they could see! They fell on their knees in repentance and began to worship Jesus!

It was as if The Lord had taken everything…leaving us with nothing except Him. (John6:68)

Part III 

America’s Great Awakening…(the Resurrection of a nation)

Repentance had cut like a knife through the heart of the nation! - But instead of death, it brought life…that heart now began to beat. As if the Lord had to temporarily stop the heartbeat of America in order to truly  resurrect her! (Ezekiel 36:26)

As I looked at the Church, we were like a new man. The Lord had removed our earthy treasure chests from off our shoulders, and we now moved swiftly, like deer on the mountains! The Fire of revival was spreading everywhere…there was nowhere in America that wasn’t being effected. I watched as Salvation breached the walls of schools, colleges, hospitals (I saw the outpouring of the Spirit on a large children’s hospital for cancer) 

Salvation reached across RACIAL lines…then I watched it breach the “sacred” political barrier that separated the “Right” from the “Left” …

Along with so many other superficial things - party lines were also coming down! 

I saw no political lines - because I was looking through the eternal lens of the heart of God…there was no “left” and “right” - there was only the SAVED and the UNSAVED….the repentant and the unrepentant…

*…not everyone in the USA is going to receive  this…not everyone will rejoice over it. Let the one who does receive it, rejoice over their salvation!*

The United States of America became as a beacon of Light across the world. And the Gospel went out like a tsunami wave. 

True Liberty & The seat of Government…

I don’t know who was in the White House (whether it was 45, or someone else - R or D)…nor did I really know what was going on…except that Salvation was breaking out at ground level: many of the people were vastly changed: Their hands, once full of worldly substance, were now empty: for the first time in, I believe hundreds of years, America was experiencing true Liberty: The pursuit of  “happiness” had been replaced by a penitent desire for, and pursuit of the Joy of the Lord and to know His Ways! People were thronging, talking, breathing freely. From out of the Olive Press, for one final season, America  could breathe…for one final season she could SEE (Revelation 3:18). 

02/10/2022

“I will for a season, bring down the “American way”, so that the people can recognize MY WAY. “

The Face of a nation…

I looked through the original Foundation Stone…and as I did, I saw the true heart…the true Face of the USA… It was nothing like I had  imagined: It was the face of 1620:  

Powerless, yet surrendered (Jeremiah 9:23-24)…

Defenseless, yet highly fortified (Psalm 125)…

Weak  - yet stronger than she had ever been before (see 2Corinthians 12:9-10)

It was the most unexpected…peculiarly humble…and POWERFUL thing I have ever seen in my life!

 

 

America 

02/16/2022

“I saw A holy fire…the Glory of The Lord over the Heartland. It extended up the middle of the nation from south to north, between the two great mountain ranges on the east and west…”

And I saw clearly the words of Psalms 125

1  Those who ftrust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2  As the mountains surround Jerusalem,so the Lord surrounds his people,from this time forth and forevermore.

-And I remembered another vision I had back in 2016…

~~~ “In the months leading up to the 2016 elections, I saw something like a dark tsunami sweeping westward across the globe, engulfing every nation in its path. The prayers of the Saints from many nations around the world, came up and seemed to assemble over America’s heartland. From there, a huge wall of something like fire arose. It was so dense that it covered the land from the mountain ranges on the East to those on the West; and it was many times taller. As I watched, the dark tsunami hit this ‘wall of prayer’ from both sides (East and West) of America and rebounded. It  could go no further and began to recede: I knew this global anti-Christ system had been defeated - at least for a time. When I asked the Lord “why America?”, I felt Him reply “America is the only nation whose foundations are strong enough- deep enough to support such a wall.” ~~~

What are these foundations?

02/10/2022: …”I thought about the year 1620 and a storm battered schooner, landed at Plymouth Rock; a small group of pilgrims from England, who had risked life and limb to find religious freedom, on these beautiful shores…

The Lord: ”You have forgotten - yet I have not. You have placed pagan pyramids over this sacred Covenant. (Again I saw Washington DC)…”But in the end, because of the prayers of My people, I will uncover this foundation and bring up the stone, that I may bring Salvation over this Land…and from here to the ends of the Earth.”

For a season…and because of the original covenant…it’s purity…the Lord will give to America the favor that He gave to Israel in Psalms 125. 

There will be one chance…and only one, for us - to humble ourselves, seek his face , and turn from our wicked ways…so that He can heal our Land. (2Chronicles 7:14)

But we need to be ready for the refining that will take place within and around us: I have waited on the Lord to share this…

02/20/2022

It was around lunchtime on the Lord’s Day: there were as usual, long long lines and traffic jams everywhere, as people, coming out of Church, clamored to get a table at their favorite restaurants Suddenly those lines of cars disappeared..and I was looking at a very different line…a line of people - they were outside what looked like closed stores and food banks. What I felt the Lord show me was simply this: the time is coming when people will be lining up, not for a table in their favorite restaurant, but for their basic foodstuffs. 

The Lord is shaking us, to awaken us…that we will run to the only foundation that is unshakable! (Ezekiel 12)

 Prophetic word 

The Great American Dream Machine 

At first I thought I was seeing a “Dream”…it was bright and sparkly and full of promise…then as I waited on the Lord, I saw it was a smooth, powerful and precision machine. I heard the words: “This is the PERFECT DREAM machine” I realized that as strong as this machine looked, in order for it to run PERFECTLY, all the parts needed to be able to function PERFECTLY - only the best of the best for this machine…and many were not! Some cogs were weaker than others…some were more misshaped. I felt the Lord show me “To operate as part of this “dream” is to become as a cog in a machine. But this machine is about to fail” 

I saw the workings of the machine suddenly begin to collapse…cogs and other intricate parts began to fall on each other. (I heard the words “Devoid of Faith” and “Crushed in spirit“) But those in power did not stop the machine, but kept it running, acting as if nothing was going wrong. 

I thought to myself “you need to stop this machine - to save the parts…the machinery”. The machinery inside was being damaged - crushed - burnt…and despite the appeals of many watchmen on the outside, the task-masters, who were seated high upon great pyramids, still would not stop this machine! 

At this point I saw that there were long lines of young people from about 18 to as young as 3, who were being smartened up…as if conditioned, to become part of the workings of the machine. The younger children at the back of the line, were playing, happily unaware of what lay ahead…but some of the the older ones, (from around 12 to 18), as they got closer, and their conditioning became more and more intense, began to look scared. Many others began to complain, and when some questioned as to why they had to become a part of this machine, they were basically told by parents and other supervising adults (I saw teachers and classrooms) that either it was “For their own good” - or “For the collective good…for the PERFECT running of the machine” - or (and this was the worst!) “For the building of the kingdom of Heaven”. The adults themselves were unmoved by these concerns, and seemed to be functioning as if in a trance.

I saw that many of the weaker, slower, more misshaped parts, having become dislodged, were violently ejected out of the machine’s workings: They now lay burned out in a corner…”they are the weak links in the chain.” - I saw rather then heard this!

As I looked at the task-masters, no longer did I see Egyptian like pyramids…I now saw the monuments of Rome…France…and then Washington DC! And I kept getting the words “Masonic Order”. 

(I know enough about Free Masons to know that they may claim to worship God, but they are atheists at heart, with “survival of the fittest” being their theology…I also know the Masonic, atheistic beliefs that these monuments in our capital represent. Is this the foundation upon which we as Christians have chosen to raise our children? Read Psalm 127)

This whole thing reminded me of a “civilized” version of the satanic mills and workhouses of England, during the Industrial Revolution.

“For the greater good”, I kept hearing them say: 

But surely only God is great…and good!

I continued to look at the machine…it seemed to be going faster and faster: the cogs and other parts, even the stronger or more intricate ones, were now showing signs of failure…black smoke began erupting from all over the various parts of machinery…and still these Egyptian-like task-masters would not stop the machine or make it slow down, but drove it faster. (I knew it was increasing both their wealth and power). 

I looked at the children waiting in line…some of them I knew…some were extremely dear to me, and as I realized this, the urge to get the task-masters to stop the machine became intense! I began to cry out with other watchmen: “Stop this machine…Stop it!”

I began appealing to the Lord to intervene… “an appeal to Heaven”***

“Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it; except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” - Psalm 127:1

The Lord spoke:

“I created a Nation to worship Me…not to work like cogs in a man-made machine! Beloved, I have given you such great FREEDOM…How are you using it? What are you feeding, nurturing your children with? Are you preparing them for the blessed Hope of My Kingdom…are you building up their faith through things as yet unseen? 

“Or are you keeping their tired eyes open, to the luxuries of this life…to the temptations that lead to Self Actualization - to the slave-drivers of the anti-christ world order…for it is to this place, that the wide path the people of this nation have chosen, will lead. 

“Beloved, why do you not seek first My Kingdom? Why do you work so hard for things that will perish…and condition your children…and your children’s children to do the same? (Psalms 127)

“My people you must hear Me clearly. Either you separate yourselves to Me and turn from this world order, or you, your children and your children’s children will be crushed by it!”

Read Revelation 3:14-22

The machine finally slowed down and abruptly stopped. I saw the people inside begin to come out - some angrily protesting that it had stopped…others choking, gasping for breath, and longing for relief…and as the thick smoke from the devastation cleared, many of them finally began to see…

I believe that for a season the Lord will bring this atheistic system - the great Masonic towers of the nation down - so that HIS VOICE will be heard.

For a season the Lord will give to America the favor that He gave to Israel in Psalms 125. There will be one chance…and only one, for us - to humble ourselves, seek his face , and turn from our wicked ways…so that He can heal our Land. (2Chronicles 7:14)

***I guess my “appeal to Heaven” is somewhat different from the likes of Dutch Sheets & Chuck Pierce: Many are appealing for America to be raised up in strength and greatness…I am appealing for America to fall to her knees in broken repentance - because as America goes…so go the other nations - including my own.🇬🇧

The Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with us all…I love this nation 🇺🇸

 America - Through suffering to Glory…!

02/16/2022

I saw A holy fire…the Glory of The Lord over the Heartland. It extended up the middle of the nation from south to north, between the two great mountain ranges on the east and west. I remember seeing Texas and Louisiana, and as far north as upper Indiana…it began to touch  the Lake Michigan area - It reached to the outskirts of Chicago…I began to cry out for Chicago! There were children by the masses running toward Jesus - into the Kingdom. And many men - some apathetic, some back-slidden, and some just plain unbelieving, were having “Saul of Tarsus” like encounters with the Lord, on the road to destruction. I saw these men turn 180 degrees back Jesus Christ.

At the same time, something had erupted in the New England States. Wells - geysers of living water, in response to I believe, centuries of prayer: I saw Connecticut, but I know it was all over New England. And infiltrating New York. I saw that these wellsprings of Life were breaking chains…religious chains, off of people in New England. I became aware of the prayers of the Saints…and as I began to prophesy alongside them, I saw  the idol/goddess that held dominion over New England, begin to fall: I knew it was the religion of Roman Catholicism. As people were drawn to these massive well-springs, their chains and yolks were broken and they began to drink freely. This became a full-scale revival! (Isaiah 12:3-5)

I saw this revival fire spread like lightning across America…and in the Heartland, Standards had been raised up (Is.59:19)…prominent among these was the Standard of God’s divine order of marriage and the Family…And I felt the Lord tell me “You do not yet know or recognize the true “Face” of the USA…It is not in the high and lofty monuments of Washington DC…Nor the face of the great Lady of Liberty…””

Then I saw in the Spirit, a humble, broken*** face…a face that was SET LIKE FLINT upon the Lord…just as in the year 1620, a remnant of faithful believers waded through the fires of oppression in “Old England”, to find sanctuary on the shores of what is now New England. Through these same fires of oppression, in the place of the greatest pressure, I believe God will remove the veil, and through His Church, America’s True Face will once more be seen (2Corinthians 3:18). This is both the Face - and the Foundation of this nation…and the Lord will return us there! 

***This face was not “broken” as if defeated or destroyed…but as a horse is broken to be fully used by its trainer, so the Church of America will be “broken” by the Lord. (Psalm 32:8-10)

I know I have said this before: I do not believe that this awakening will look the way some have imagined. It will not be an awakening of big names on big platforms in big arenas: This is not the true face of America…and certainly should not be the face of the Church! I keep seeing the olive press- the Gethsemane. This was pure, heart-wrenching REPENTANCE! Much of it going on in the midnight hour - unseen by the masses. And under pressure and hardship. Things will get very dark. (And as I think back to 1620 England, I see that the greatest moves of repentance have usually happened amidst the greatest oppression)

~~~I saw  what I thought to be an olive, being pressed and squeezed in between two hands…gently at first, then more and more intensely until I saw oil begin to come from the olive. I knew this was the Church. (Excerpt from 08/21/2021)~~~

How can we in America prepare? 

…By focusing, not on visible temporal things of this world, but the invisible, eternal things of the next; (We will never be ready for a revival through persecution - or to be caught up to meet the Lord in the air, as long as we love the things of this world and hold on to them)

 (2Corinthians 4:16-18; 1Thess. 4:16-17)

So we must start seeing ourselves - and our nation - in a new Light: -

America is - and has been - a beacon of freedom to the nations of the world, for one purpose: 

For the preaching of the Gospel to the nations of the world. 

There is no other nation on the planet that has been blessed with such light and liberty:

We, the Church must begin to see our liberty like that…

And to use our liberty for that purpose, while there is still time…

So that when we (the Church) lose our liberty…we will be strong enough in our faith to stand firm…and after we have done everything else, to stand! (Ephesians 6:13)

Why are we being shaken?…Because it is time for us to awaken!🇺🇸

(John9:4)

 What still presses on my heart at this hour…forgive the bluntness. How long we will continue to crane our necks to those at the top of this “apostolic pyramid”, for guidance and leadership, instead of looking to the Lord? This is not Moses on Mt Sinai…we’re not approaching a mountain of fire, upon which only a select few are invited. We are the Body of Christ. Each part uniquely equal…and equally unique. In past times God spoke to us through prophets. Now He has spoken to us through His Son…(Hebrews 1:1-2)

It is tragic that so many who were called by God and once used mightily by Him, have become so consumed by the gift that they have forgotten about the giver…forgetting that God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble…that he uses the despised things of this world to shame those who think they are something…and that it is to “little children“ that he reveals His true heart, they have made for themselves names, titles and platforms…hence the New Apostolic Reformation was born (C.Peter Wagner’s words, not mine)

Any true prophet will understand that God speaks at HIS OWN WILL and in HIS OWN TIME. As a prophetic person myself, I know how important it is to wait for the Lord and submit to Him - no matter how long that wait is. 

He may use a person to prophesy many times - or only one time…it may be over the span of a few days…or we may have to wait several decades between prophetic words! (for me it has been 10 years). But it doesn’t matter…because it’s not about us - it’s about HIM! 

Prophets are not supposed to be elevated above the rest of the Church - quite the opposite!

We’re not necessarily going to get a “word for the year” or a “word for the month” We’re not fortune tellers: This is nonsense! Borderline divination! We will get a word if and when GOD CHOOSES to give us one! 

And we may not always hit the mark…because we’re New Covenant prophets, not Old. Contrary to what these so-called prophets may say, we are not the ONLY voice for God - that was the Old Testament…Our words are NOT the Law. God’s Word (The Bible) is.

 #fastforfamily

~~~Excerpt from post: May 2021

Kim Clement: “The Lord’s just told me that “as you pray I will send back what has been isolated…There has been an isolation of inspiration. But now I will restore inspiration that will raise the dead…I will do unusual miracles…if you would just ask me…for tonight I will begin…with you…and your house!””

I’m sure many people saw different interpretations as to what had been “isolated”…I saw fathers.~~~

(Mal. 4:5-6)

But there will not be a full realization and release for these husbands/fathers into their place in God’s order, without we who are wives/mothers recognizing and embracing ours. So what in the Church, does that look like? -

“…but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening. (1Peter 3:4-6)

Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. (Eph.5:22-23)

Can I as a woman (who is even married to a Godly man) do this in my own strength? I confess that often I can’t! There are times when, to my shame, I find this very hard. (because our culture - especially in some of the more charismatic churches - tells us to do the opposite!). This is why (like Paul) I must go to the Cross, and there die daily (1Cor. 15:31) - crucifying my flesh in the Body of Jesus Christ (Galatians 2:20), so that I may find Grace to walk in His Resurrection. Apart from Him, I can do nothing…

But I believe this is a key to revival. The Lord is not coming back fo an upside down Church: but for a Family - a Bride, fully adorned and right way up - in her right mind. I am praying that those of us women who call ourselves disciples of Jesus, everywhere will, by the Grace of God and the Power of His Name, receive and embrace this scripture. This is where real authority lies.

I believe I have seen an ecclesia that looks like an army…an army that looks like a Family…a Family that looks like a Bride.

We may not realize this: But there are so many in the world that may seem cynical and even hostile on the outside…but inside are groaning…longing…just waiting…for the Church to look - not like this world - but like The Church! (Romans 8:19,22) 

I believe the harder things become, the more we will be pressed into Christ - His death and resurrection (The deeper the darkness - the greater the Light) and when we begin to look - to function like this…that is when they will come!

What I saw and heard on Mt Carmel 2008, was the sound of the Bride: fathers/husbands taking their place…mothers/wives taking their place…the voices of grandparents, brothers , sisters and children…little children!
