Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate. 2 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. 3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man. 4 As for our redeemer, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel. 5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms. 6 I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. 7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it. 8 Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am , and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children: 9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.
Isaiah 47. 1-9
Dear brothers and sisters, if we think of Babylon, first the biblical Babylon comes to our mind, situated in today’s Iraq; but there are various “Babylons”. For example the religious Babylon is Rom, the Vatican, about this we won’t bother to talk about. Then there is the economical Babylon; New York, or lets say America.
When I go to various countries, specially in Europe, then I meet countless atheists: for example Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Lutheran, and Anglican atheists. To pray for these countries is easy and to talk to the people to. But how should one pray for a country in which many claim to be believers and that they are born again Christians, but don’t live accordingly; where GOD just belongs to them like a car, a house and all the possessions.
While last month, during my prayer march in Washington DC, I was walking around praying and occasionally I tried to talk to people, I became more and more hopeless. What is happening here? How can one pray here and how can one talk to people here? The Lord has given me then the word “Mystery”, which is mentioned in Rev.17 in connection with Babylon. Why is America Mystery Babylon? If the world thinks of America, it is of the opinion, that it is a vast Christian country! Is America a vast Christian country?
The Americans are proud of their Statue of liberty, but who is this Liberty? Libertas a roman Goddess! What is the name of that huge building where the representatives of the country meet and pass laws? Capitol! That was exactly the name of the seat in Rome of Caesar who was ruling and suppressing the world at that time. What is the name of the building where the military headquarter of the United States is? Pentagon, it has got a lot to do with “Pentagram”.
There is still a lot one could say, but that is enough.
We all know from history that a big number of persecuted Christians emigrated to the USA; but not only Christians. GOD has blessed the country tremendously because of the Christians and America has done a lot of good, this has to be said. But where does the country stand today? The American people are proud of their country and they don’t like it if you question some thing. But we have to ask questions, particularly as Christians:
- How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians, in the last ca. 30 years, 50 million of unborn babies got murdered? – How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians (we are talking about born again Christians!) has nearly the highest crime rate?
– How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians and Christian presidents (if they truly are, only GOD knows) and Christian politicians the marriage for homosexuals and other rights for these are introduced in more and more states? – How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians such a big industry could be built up, which, with its satanic-dirty and perverted movies could drown and erode the whole world in a landslide of filth and junk and infest the farthest corner of this planet with it? – How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians, so many exorbitant rich people exist and so many poverty stricken people?
- How is it possible that in a country with so many Christians, so many people live like kings and use their credit cards headless and get in to such big debts that, because of this the whole world drives in to the ruin! Where is here the Christian humbleness? Who rules America? The greed for money! What does the word of GOD say?
The greed of money is the root of all evil!
1. Tim 6:1. – How is it possible, that through a country with so many Christians the gospel could be brought in to the world wide body of Christ and even to Africa and this country is so obsessed with the greed for money and money and money again? Through a gospel which snatches the hearts of countless people and brothers and sisters from our redeemer and turns them toward the god called mammon?
America sees itself as the savior of the world; they think they are bringing democracy everywhere. Are they doing this? I am not doubting that America has started with good intentions to interfere into foreign countries. Where would Europe be now, if the Americans wouldn’t have intervened 60 years ago? We are grateful for this, but the Americas of today have two faces.
If I had to describe America with one word, I would say: hypocrisy.
How many dictators did America keep in power, if it was an advantage for them? For decades
America is giving weapons to Turkey and teaches them how to fight, although they know that Greece was occupied by them for 400 years and oppressed cruelly and up to recently had to live in fear of a new aggression from Turkey? Israel and America are giving incredible amounts of weapons to Turkey. Against whom will these weapons soon be employed? Against Israel itself! How is it possible that through a country with so many Christians, christian presidents and christian politicians, so much pressure is applied on to Israel to give away their land? In America are many friends of Israel, but also many enemies and as the problems of America are growing, the more will the Americans stand up against the Jews in America.
To which idols are the Americans praying to next to the mammon? The freedom; liberty, Libertas, freedom is a strong demonic spirit in America. Everything or nearly everything should be allowed for the sake of freedom. Somebody wrote in the newspaper: The Americans are not addicted to the fuel but addicted to freedom; they want to be able to travel anytime, anywhere they want to. Freedom above all, even above the laws of the LORD. Freedom is being worshiped in America and the people, including the Christians don’t notice that they have turned into slaves of this very freedom! The prayer has been abolished in schools, in order not to offend anybody. What has this led to? To murders who kill their colleagues. A Christian teacher who has put his bible on the pulpit, has been sacked, but everything else is o.k.
This is America of today and a lot of Christians are sleeping. The word judgement is taboo. How could and how should the LORD judge a country like America? America adores herself as “the Greatest”; “nothing will happen to me!”
Why am I writing all this? Do I care about politics? No! I only want to tell you: Watch America! How you see her today, you soon won’t see her anymore. GOD has grabbed America at the loins and will shake her like ripe figs and won’t let her go until she is on her knees.
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
Revelation 18:7,8
Do you want to know what will come over America? Then read the book of Revelation chapter 18.
So how GOD has stated an example on Israel how much it costs to leave him, so will GOD in the near future show on America the whole world how much it cost. It will be an example which will shake the world and she will get to know what she is also in for. Now the time is ripe for America. When I was the last time in Russia, I was warning the believer that the country will rise and bring disaster, also in America. They did not want to believe it. They said: We have never attacked anyone, we always were attacked. That’s how naive human beings can be, even Christians. One pastor told me: Which unknown people (me) are these who want to bring shame upon Russia?
I have written in a letter a while ago, that I had about 20 years ago a dream: I had a vision, that Russia will be attacking America via the route through Alaska. At that time I put the dream aside and I have forgotten it. But then, last year I found out, that the LORD has showed the same to other brethrens in America. When America, through the breaking down of the money market, through strong earth quakes, tornados, floods, epidemics, terror attacks, political assassinations etc. is downcast, Russia will attack from the North.
In Washington I could warn a lot of people, also Americans from other US-States. A lot of them took it serious, but some objected: America is so strong, has such modern weapons; to the contrary the Russians have old weapons, etc. But when I explained a few things to them, they could grasp it.
When I was in front of the Pentagon I had the chance to talk to an officer and I could warn him, that soon he will have a lot to do, because your people have forsaken the LORD and you trust in your own power. When I was behind the Pentagon, I could sense an immense sadness. A lot of officers, soldiers and others are Christian believers; if they see you praying they thank you for it.
My heart cries out for America! The LORD has waited a long time that they should repent, but they were not ready and still are not ready. The last Friday evening of my stay there, when I tried to talk to people in front of the Union station, to warn them, a sister passed by. The LORD told her to stop and to talk to me. Then she invited me for the next morning to pray with the Aglow women in front of the Capitol. Hundred of women were there, we were praying for various issues, but my spirit was unhappy, if not even angry. Can we still be praying at ease out of our abundance? If I know that California will be disappearing into the Ocean (earthquake), if parts of Florida will be covered by the ocean, when the great lakes between America and Canada will cover big parts of the land, when big cities in America will be destroyed within one hour (some brethren have seen it even before David Wilkerson had the vision), when Russia and other armies will attack America, when the country will be damaged heavily, can we still be praying at ease?
One day I approached a women in front of the Capitol, she was lonely, sad and very grateful that somebody took time for her. It turned out that she was a Jewish woman from California, that she believes in JESUS and she told me her story. When I asked her what she was doing here, she started crying. She came with a group to the capital to talk to members of the parliament. The state of California has no more money for old people and is up to build concentration camps for them, if you don’t agree, you are out on the streets. I thought I don’t hear well. I then recommended to her to go to Israel.
Brethren is it clear to you in what times we are living? I have got the impression that some of you have deaf ears, they don’t want to hear, they want to continue to live their illusions. An event here an event there, a prophet here a prophet there, a revival here a revival there, - if they were only real!
All this shaking in America, in Israel and in the world will bring the people to the valley of the decision. Decision!
The LORD is able to keep them who are HIS. HE will have a remnant in America like everywhere, who will see HIS glory! My prayer is that the thousands of true, serious Christians in America will wake up and realize how they are being manipulated by the government. Nearly every president pretends to be a Christian, to win the Christians and they are so naive to believe it.
My prayer is that the millions of apostate Christians turn back before it is too late.
There is an old prophecy, that the last President will be a woman, attractive but cruel.
Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
Dear brethren, we need the cross in our life, we need the name and the blood of JESUS in our life, otherwise we won’t get through the times ahead of us.
May the peace of the LORD be with all those who love HIM and fear God.
Catherine, a maidservant of JESUS CHRIST
