The Super Bowl is happening on Sunday, but since I stopped watching football years ago when it went Woke, I’m not all that interested in the game.
I probably couldn’t even name 10 players anymore….
I’m more interested in things like this, and why Andy Reid looks exactly like a walrus:
That's interesting to me!
What's also interesting is Bob Jones' prophecy about the Kansas City Chiefs winning the Super Bowl.
If you don't know Bob Jones, he was quite a wild, prophetic man. Very much like John the Baptist eating locusts and honey in the desert kind of wild.
Here are two videos showing the wild prophetic things Bob Jones would say and do (and yes, I am aware Mike Bickle has had a very significant fall from grace in the past two years, but still this video tells some incredible stories about Bob Jones):
Now with all of that as introduction, I want to talk about Bob Jones' prophetic word about the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl.
Here is a quick summary of the prophecy:
Bob Jones, a prominent prophetic figure within charismatic Christian communities, is known for a prophecy concerning the Kansas City Chiefs. He foretold that when the Chiefs secured a Super Bowl victory, it would signify God raising up "apostolic chiefs" to lead a significant revival, potentially involving a billion-soul harvest.
This prophecy gained attention when the Chiefs won Super Bowl LIV in February 2020, their first championship in 50 years. Many viewed this event as the fulfillment of Jones' prophecy and an indication of an impending spiritual revival.
The prophecy resurfaced in discussions when the Chiefs clinched another Super Bowl victory in February 2023, coinciding with reports of revival activities at Asbury University in Kentucky. Observers noted the timing of these events as a potential sign of the prophesied revival.
In the past decade, the Chiefs have been to four Super Bowls and won three of them.
In other words, they're good. Really good.
But when Bob Jones made this prophecy, they were bad. Really bad.
They'd pretty much always been bad, prior to this recent dynasty, the only other time they ever won a Super Bowl was in 1969!
In fact, there was nothing to indicate they would EVER win another Super Bowl, let alone start to build this incredible Mahomes dynasty.
So Bob Jones saying that the Chiefs returning to the Super Bowl and winning it sounded quite crazy back in the 1980s, but that was just Bob. He often said and did things that sounded crazy but later came to pass.
Since this original prophecy was given back in the 1980s, there is no video or audio of it I can find, that seems lost to history, but there are plenty of people who were there and who still speak of it.
From MyCharisma.com, I thought this was an excellent summary:
A flurry of prophetic words have come forth concerning the Kansas City Chiefs’ win in Super Bowl LIV, including Bob Jones’ word from the 1980s. After much prayer and contemplation, I felt it would be good to add my personal prophetic perspective to the composite of words being released.
You may wonder, Why another word on this subject?
At this point and time in my life, I feel I am one of the voices that can help to bridge the recent “prophetic past” to the present and into the future. One of the mandates upon my life—confirmed to me in several near-death experiences—is to be a voice of prophetic reason in a tumultuous age.
Yes, I had a lot of personal history in the 1980s and 1990s with seer parabolic prophet, Bob Jones. He emerged on the scene with his eyes all aglow with heaven’s message and his socks hanging down to his ankles.
There was no one quite like Jones! He not only talked in parables; he was one.
ADVERTISEMENTFor those who do not know, I grew up in rural Missouri, graduated from the University of Central Missouri in 1974 and lived in and ministered for years in the Greater Kansas City area.
For well over a decade, I had a lot of personal conversations with Jones and did a good deal of prophetic ministry along his side. Yes, I can actually say, “I was there!”
God Speaks in Parables
At times, it seems the prophetic is a foreign language that needs translation, using its own buzzwords with symbolic realms that appear to be veiled communication. But then, there is precedent.
All of the prophets of Scripture and Jesus Himself taught in parables.
Hosea 12:10 states, “I have spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and through the prophets I will bring destruction.”
Matthew 13:34 explains, “Jesus said all these things to the crowds in parables. And without a parable He did not speak to them.”
Then in Mark 4:33 we gain more understanding, “With many such parables He was speaking the word to them as they were able to hear it.”
So, I think we had better just accept the fact that these are some of the wonderful and sometimes mysterious ways of the Holy Spirit.
God still speaks in parables today!
Some Background to Bob Jones’ Prophetic Word
Before I proceed any further, I want to acknowledge the research and stewardship by friends of mine who have already given expression concerning the strategic words about the Kansas City Chiefs’ win in the recent Super Bowl.
ADVERTISEMENTIn particular, I want to give a shout out to Wesley and Stacey Campbell, Shawn Bolz, Bob Hartley, Johnny Enlow and others. Thank you for your contribution.
Now here is my personal piece as well.
Michal Ann and I first met Bob Jones during the historic Joel’s Army Fast that the young revivalist, Mike Bickle, called forth in Kansas City in May of 1983. I was pastoring Harvest Fellowship in Warrensburg, Missouri, and felt led to have our congregation participate in this radical call to 21 days of prayer and fasting for revival in the Heartland and beyond.
We were full of zeal and passion for Jesus and His purposes in the earth. This was when I first encountered Bob Jones and knew from that moment on that my life was tethered to the prophetic destiny being declared in those days.
In those early years, Bob Jones attached himself with Mike Bickle, a man of prayer and consecration, in what was then called Kansas City Fellowship. A 21-Day Solemn Assembly was initiated by Mike Bickle in Kansas City which started on May 7, 1983. (Please refer to mikebickle.org IHOPKC PROPHETIC HISTORY for documentation.) Our small congregation and I wholeheartedly participated.
We were all anticipating that “revival” was right at hand. The Solemn Assembly was supported with signs in the heavens and on the earth. While assisting in leading worship on the 19th night of our local expression, I had one of my first angelic encounters. A door of supernatural activity was opened in those days and has continued to be open ever since. Eventually I gave up all I had built to join this stunning and eclectic team of potential world changers.
It was in the season that Bob started sharing words with multiple people about signs of an imminent revival. We were each given pieces to the puzzle. The way I remember hearing it went like this, “When the Kansas City Chiefs go to the big one, it will be a sign that revival is coming and that the Heartland will be healed.”
The Kansas City Chiefs prophecy was conversationally spoken by Bob to many different people. In fact, Bob Jones’ personal doctor, Dr. Jeff Earl, has stated, that Bob even reminded him of this word in the last years of Bob’s life.
The nature of the prophetic is that it is partial, progressive and conditional.
So, over the years, more revelation would be granted and more pieces of the prophetic puzzle were served to additional people.
Bob is deceased now, but here you can watch his wife Bonnie talk about the famous Kansas City Chiefs prophecy:
According to Shawn Bolz, Bob Jones would later repeat this prophecy to him in 2003:
According to a prophetic word from Bob Jones, the Kansas City Chiefs would at some point win the Super Bowl, and when they did, it would be a signpost to the church that revival is imminent.
Let me tell you where this came from:
In 2003, I took an internship group I ran from Kansas City, Missouri, to Moravian Falls, North Carolina, to meet the late, great prophetic voice, Bob Jones. I had already spent some time with him but wanted him to impact our young leaders, who were spending nine months with us in a spiritual boot camp.
During our session with Bob, knowing we were from Kansas City at the time, he asked, “Do you all like the Chiefs?” Several of our interns, including me, were very football-oriented; one had even played college ball. Bob then shared how one day the Chiefs would win the Super Bowl, and it would be a sign that God was raising up his apostolic chiefs and revival would be imminent. He also shared about the coming revival of over 1 billion souls that would all come to Jesus in one generation.
Bob shared this revelation again in coming years with us and others, sometimes referencing a prophetic word over the Royals, sometimes talking about some other signposts, but he ended up relationally telling us (especially when we were ministering or talking to football players) the Chiefs word.
Years went by, and the Chiefs hadn’t been Super Bowl-connected for so long that I lost track of the word. Some people ask, “How come you guys didn’t keep better records of this word?” Honestly, it’s because being with Bob was like being under a fire hose of revelations, and this was just something he said over and over, so I thought it was one of his well- documented words. I know some of his close friends heard him say it over the years (James Goll, Bobby Conner, Bob Hartley and others) while his widow, Bonnie Jones, and close friend, Mike Bickle, who are definitely some of the main stewards of his prophetic ministry, were never with Bob when he said this. This is part of what we are believing to raise up: More stewardship of even the less commonly shared words that can bring great encouragement to the body of Christ.
The good news is that last night, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. I want to point out a few things.
1. God is raising up people with greater authority than ever. He is releasing the “key of David” (Isa. 22:22). One of Bob’s favorite prophetic numbers was 222 or 22:22. He often had things come up on Feb 2 in his prophetic life, and I was with him twice on Feb. 2 (02-02) in different years where he prophesied some powerful things unrelated to this word. The fact that this win happened on 02-02-2020 is such a picture of one of Bob’s long-term words that the key of David, the key of intimacy and prayer, was going to be given to a generation. It was the coach’s 222nd win. The number kept appearing in different ways. This in itself was a Bob Jones signpost that I think created a party in heaven.
2. This win happened on the 33rd day of the year, with 333 more days of the year left because it’s leap year. One of Bob’s favorite Scriptures was Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV), “Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” This win signifies that God is about to answer us and bring solutions to complications that we just can’t solve without Him.
3. Evangelists are being raised up on the largest platforms ever known to man: Another thing to point out is that Kanye West, a recently converted evangelist, felt led to go into Miami the morning of the Super Bowl and hold a service. West’s event was held at Bayfront Park Amphitheater at 11 a.m. Sunday, hours before the San Francisco 49ers’ and Kansas City Chiefs’ kickoff at 6:30 p.m. Rich Wilkerson Jr. preached, and during the service, an altar call for salvation was performed, and witnesses felt there was a real drawing.
If you told most people two years ago that Kanye West was going to be leading some of the largest Christian events and services as a worship leader and minister, especially before large secular events, almost no one would have believed you, but here we have a stadium evangelist being raised up in the same time period as the prophetic word about the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl was fulfilled.
4. Bob shared about “apostolic chiefs” being raised up. We didn’t get to hear a lot of what this meant, but it felt important that people who will move government to build God’s movements and plans in society, ministry and all spheres of influence are going to be more directly appointed to positions of authority. Think Joseph and Daniel.
5. Kansas City itself was one of the main themes in Bob’s word: The last thing to point out, according to Bob Jones’ friends with whom he shared this prophetic word in Kansas City, there was a lot of focus on the word for Kansas City itself, mainly that the city would become a place of great homes, and reformers of industries would move there, and there would be a transformation in the city
I don’t know what the fulfillment of a word like Bob’s that is so general will look like, but I am keeping my eyes and heart open especially to share my faith with those around me who would be hungry to hear, because as Bob once defined, revival looks like lives being shared in love.
So there you have it!
And where does that leave us heading into the 2025 Super Bowl?
Well, it's quite interesting if you ask me....
The Chiefs have been to four recent Super Bowls and won three of them.
The first was a win over the 49ers in 2020, which was the original fulfillment of Bob Jones' prophecy.
There was then a rematch of that same matchup four years later in 2024 (last year) where the Chiefs won again.
Now this year in 2025, there is a rematch of the 2022 Super Bowl where the Chiefs once again match up against the Eagles:
If the Chiefs win this year, that will mark four wins since 2020, and three in a row (a three-peat) rarely seen in the NFL.
Do you think that might be significant?
Wrapping up, if you want more on Bob Jones, he is also well known for his "Perfect Storm" prophecy, which you can watch right here:
FULL TRANSCRIPT:
In 2010, Bob Jones recorded a message he called “The Perfect Storm.” In the early 1990s, the Lord revealed to him that a great storm—a huge storm—was coming to the United States, and he said there were seven storms forming and culminating to create this perfect storm. The seven features of that storm are governmental, spiritual, financial, social, emotional, infirmity, and geophysical.
In this message, Bob gives an awesome insight into how these storms began and provides instructions on what to do in the midst of the perfect storm, which I believe America and the whole world are currently experiencing. You will be blessed in hearing this message, and I’ll return after Bob’s message for a recap. So, be blessed in the hearing.
The Perfect Storm
Heaven declared in the second verse a deed of the Lord, saying that the redeemed are being given new authority. As we are being awakened today, we are really going to need to take that authority that God has given us in these times of storms. In the 1990s, in Panama City, Florida, I went into a place I usually go—a place where I have visions—and I saw things that I later revealed to people, and they did happen. In the ’90s, I had a vision of a huge storm coming at the United States; it was one of the biggest we have ever seen, and it had many different facets.
I was told that this great storm would come when Admiral Roberts—or Rushman—went home on December 15th of ’09—that was the fifth day of Hanukkah. Hanukkah is the Feast of Lights and the Feast of Dedication, when the redeemed of the Lord began to shine like never before. We really need to begin to dedicate our lives to His purpose and plans. I have spoken this prophecy many times in the past, but now these storms—seven different storms—are coming together to form a perfect storm.
The first of these storms is governmental. You are going to see a governmental shaking like you’ve never seen before. The government will experience a kind of “chicken in the church” government unlike anything seen before, and within it, you will begin to see the true government of the church. Recently, the church has been given authority by the Lord, but it’s more than just leaders asserting power—it is the redeemed of the Lord taking charge of what is going on here.
I have, in my past, seen a tornado. I was in a church where a tornado was coming right at us. We took authority over it, and it lifted and went over us, but a few miles down the road it fell in an area in Kansas City called Ruskin Heights, causing great damage. We really need to have a vision of using this authority not only for our own protection but for the protection of an entire city. This is the beginning of a faith initiative—let the redeemed of the Lord say so—to turn an entire storm away from cities, states, and nations.
In 2003, there was a great influenza outbreak in the United States and Canada. I was at the Morningstar Center on New Year’s Eve of that year, and I went into all these places I go—places I believed to be trance states—and I saw the Lord, and He was very angry. The leaders of the full-time ministries in northern South Carolina were all crying out to Him to pull back to centralism, and this influenza was killing babies—it was the Lord’s baby, so it was being killed. He was killing church leaders, and the Lord was angry because the church was not taking the authority that He had given them.
He told me, “They want Me to pull it back, for I have given them authority to go down and rebuke them and tell them to repent, but they are not taking that authority and telling Me to get up and take the authority I have already given them.” So I brought that word, and around noon on New Year’s Eve of ’03, many full-time leaders in the dome church got up, repented of their lack of authority, and we put our fingers to disciplines and said, “We curse you in Jesus’ name; we command that you cease to function and die immediately.” But that morning, all I heard on the television was “influenza.” The hospital wards and hallways were full, and it only got worse in the United States and Canada from that time forth. I have never heard of another case of influenza, nor have I heard of another case in Canada.
The redeemed of the Lord have begun to say so—because if you don’t speak, the enemy will have his way; but if you do speak, the enemy will not prevail, for the Lord will bring about a spiritual victory. When Jesus was asleep on the ship and the great storm came, they woke Him, and because they did not take the authority He offered, He rebuked the storm by saying, “Peace—be still,” and it ceased immediately.
I think what He is speaking to the church is, “Be at peace and take authority over these storms that are beginning to come in so many different ways.” Consider a ship at sea: when it comes into port, it goes out to sea and lifts its anchor. When storms come, the waves simply lift that ship up higher than it has ever been before, and then it comes back down. Now, like emerald water, Robert Sleek—who was a leader among many—illustrated this: when a storm comes, a ship still comes into port, goes out to sea, and lifts its anchor down. I believe the church is getting ready for expenses never known before, and when it comes back down, I think it will be to rescue the drowning people and take them aboard the ship. It is going to be one of the church’s finest displays of power.
This anchor is our hope—Hebrews 6:19 teaches that hope means a confident expectation in the Lord. It is time that we begin to have that confident expectation in Him, that blessed hope to carry us through these times. If a ship at sea has no lighthouse, no light within it, then the waves can run it aground on the rocks. Therefore, it is time that the church becomes the light—a lighthouse to the world—in these times of darkness.
It is a time of storms, but we need to be prepared to withstand them. When a ship goes down and its captain hunkers down, he puts his face right into the storm, and the church is not going under; it is going through the storm. Not only that, but it is also His finest hour for bringing souls to salvation. This is not a time for fear; rather, it is a time to rejoice because there will be deliverance like never seen before.
You can have your anchor let out; you can have that hope and expectation, you can have a lighthouse, but if you become divided with your brothers and sisters, that ship will be caught by the waves and taken under. It is time for us to stand together, to support one another as we never have before, and to protect one another from our own divisions.
I have never before heard such words, and it is time that we begin to resolve our differences, forgive one another, and let the light within us shine so that those in darkness may find salvation. This is His hand. I believe that seven different storms are coming together, and as I said, the first one is political. I believe you are going to see a governmental shaking like never before—it’s already happening. The government appears to be empty, but the redeemed of the Lord have the answers; the government does not have the answers regarding the economy, finance, or anything like that.
They—the redeemed—are the ones who, if they do not speak, the enemy will have his way; but if they do speak, the enemy will not prevail, for the Lord will bring about a spiritual victory. The first storm, the political or governmental storm, signifies that the Lord is getting ready to restore true apostolic leadership to the church. I believe that this shaking of our government will bring the Lord back into the equation of the United States, as people begin to focus on the freedom of religion—a freedom for which we were born. I believe you are about to see religion come into a new liberty and a freedom like never before, and that the apostolic leadership of the church will take a strong role in the nation of America and the world. I don’t believe that what I’m speaking about applies only to the United States; I believe it concerns the entire world, and we are about to see the leaders of the church raised up with true authority.
Now, the second storm is spiritual. In the United States, I believe that many will turn to witch doctors, fortune tellers, tarot cards, and everything in the occult to seek the truth. I think they are looking in the wrong places because when you seek truth in these places, a curse comes over you, and there is no light within you. If you have no light and you are going toward the dark side, then the time is coming when things will be really horrible for you—a place with no hope, no common expectations, no absolutes—leaving you to wonder if you were ever born.
In this time of spiritual shaking, the truly spiritual people among the redeemed will stand firm, and what they speak will begin to come to pass. I believe you will begin to hear prophets prophesy things that will happen in the future, even before they occur. I believe you will get a seat as the spiritual people begin to bring understanding through revelation like never before. If we are in a time of great understanding and opportunity, I see genuine prophets coming forward, and there will be a prophetic center of spirituality. Therefore, you’ll begin to hear the same word—whether you go to California or anywhere else—because it is one spirit.
I don’t believe that our minds will ever fully unite, but in our consciousness and our spirit, when the Holy Spirit speaks, there will be unity. Where there is unity—where there is one, two, or three united in spirit—a little manifestation of His presence will be in their midst. Truly, it will be the revelation of the Holy Spirit in our consciousness and spirit, and when we hear that, we will have the authority to act. I believe you are getting ready for spiritual authority on a fundamental level. I believe we are in a time of change like the church has never known before. We are sailing in unknown waters; this has never been charted, and none of us know what will take place, because it is being revealed for the first time.
I think one of the reasons He revealed this is because we have no precedent or link in our past—this is going to be totally new. It is going to be the children of light truly shining to give the children of darkness an opportunity to come to the light. We are in a time of spiritual shaking, but those who have the Word of God within them remain unshaken, because their entire salvation is based on faith and because they are light. They will simply face the darkness and overcome it.
Now, the third great storm is financial. I believe you are going to see a financial shaking in the world that will continue. I think you will discover that there are those whom the Lord guides in such a way that they prosper during times of shaking. I see in this time of financial upheaval a surge in entrepreneurial activities and innovative solutions we’ve never seen before.
I foresee events like a modern-day Woodstock where, toward a quarter of a million youth, many will be saved. We are getting ready for one of the greatest salvations ever revealed on earth. I believe we are on the brink of an end-time harvest—the first step in bringing at least a billion youth together. When these evangelists come in, I believe they will minister to people who have lost their wealth—especially some of the very best and wealthiest—some of whom will lose half of their wealth and not know what to do. These evangelists will lead them to the Lord, and I believe that at this time there will be greater wealth flowing into the church as never before. The devil has no problem supporting a kingdom, so get ready for the Lord to support His people at a time of shaking; get ready for true evangelists to arise worldwide. This third shaking is going to be something to behold—it’s what we have been waiting for. So do not be afraid of these shakings; rejoice in them, for it is the time that we have.
I believe the fourth great storm is social. The church has not socialized with one another very much; we have had too much hierarchy and not enough genuine relationship. I believe we are getting ready to have real relationships with one another. We did not have a “native spirit” in it—a sense of community and comfort. We are getting ready for the body of Christ to come together as one body, with each person finding his or her place, and every person being important. It will take all of us to go through what lies ahead, but we need to have a vision for being social with one another.
I believe one of the strongest anointings right now is in the preparation for home meetings. These meetings are where the preparation for the great harvest is taking place. In home meetings, the church gathers at different times, but these meetings are where you are getting equipped for the harvest. I see that some people in home meetings are like barns—some homes will be able to bring in ten people; others can handle 50, 100, or even a thousand. When you have these kinds of barns, you’re getting ready for the harvest. The main purpose right now is to focus on building barns—not houses—because if you have a great harvest and no barn to bring it into, it will be lost. We are going to have the harvest, but we need to begin to be equipped for the numbers that will come. Some of the greatest churches we have now cannot handle a thousand converts in a week, let alone 10,000 or 50,000. Each one of us must begin to see ourselves as a barn and start to build ourselves up with the Holy Spirit so that we can bring in that harvest which is ready to come. I believe the Lord is ready; I don’t believe we are. So if we are going to get ready, then we have to be social with one another, on the same level, each in our place of reaping.
So, the fifth storm I think is going to be a very dangerous one—it is going to be emotional. People are going to lose control; they have invested their lives in retirement, education, and saving their money for the future. I think emotions are going to go bananas. I believe that some of your psychiatrists are going to need a Christian to deliver them. These people are going to experience emotional dissolution, and they will need the members of the church to give them a pill called the gospel. That pill, which heals, will bring them into a place of peace, calming their emotions.
This is what the barns are for—they are there to take authority over people’s emotions, to show them hope in a time of great disaster, to direct them to the light, and to focus them on the true absolute, which is the Lord Jesus Christ. The church has no right to let emotions get out of control, for we are the ones called to keep the spirit in order.
The sixth storm, I say, is infirmity. As I’ve already mentioned, the newscasters—people in infirmity—are scared like never before. I don’t believe it; the infections, the flus, and everything else are out there now, and it seems worse than any season we have experienced before. In the past, when things were bad, we did not terrorize; we lived through them. But now, fear is being spread. The newscasters are like terrorists, not giving any hope but only fear. If you are frightened, turn off the television, put that paper down, and go to Him who can give you peace.
So, infirmity—let the redeemed of the Lord say so. If they say “no,” this is how you know that the world does not speak with authority; neither does the devil nor his people. But the saints must speak, and it’s time they begin to come together and declare that there will be no influenza, no pestilence. Similarly, I believe there is a fungus and blight attacking our crops. This is just what happened recently in Florida with a freeze that literally wiped out lovely orange groves, brush, and strawberry crops. These were people who had invested their lives in this work. I believe that if the church had come together, we could have said “no” to that freeze.
Then we need to begin to take authority over the weather. I know this is contrary to many people’s thinking, but the Lord did, and I have seen the saints take authority over the weather. I have seen them bring an end to drought and restore the land. We have so much authority that we have never used before; we have never been this way, and because we haven’t, there’s no need to be frightened. As we move forward, we need to chart calm waters so that others can follow us. Churches will take that authority and put it to work—it will go worldwide. We don’t know what we can do until we get off our seats and say so.
The seventh great storm is physical. There is a natural order on earth—earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves—these are part of the natural order. I don’t believe we can stop them because they are natural; faith will never overcome the will of God. But I will say this: I believe we can reduce the amount of death that comes from them. I believe that the amount of death is proportional to the lack of intercession. Listen: these earthquakes, already occurring in Haiti, in California, and in so many other places—such as along the New Madrid Fault in the middle of the United States—are shaking the earth.
We ought to begin to take authority. I believe that we can take authority to reduce death so that only those who do not listen to what the Lord is saying will be in harm’s way. I also believe we can take authority to moderate even a huge quake that would destroy everything, so that only smaller quakes occur until the situation is settled. The events are changing; it is a time when I don’t believe we can stop these natural occurrences, but it is time for us to know about them. It is time that the revelation is given, that the spiritual gifts are revealed, for it is going to happen. I have seen it many, many times—I saw exact names prophesied, though earthquakes have never been predicted in such detail. If the Lord releases His revelation to His prophets, those who believe will be complete and safe in these times.
It is really important that the church receives the revelation of where and when to be. The quakes, the volcanoes, and the tidal waves will happen; we have some authority over them, but this is a natural process on the earth that we cannot stop. However, with our faith and authority, I believe we can mitigate the death that results. I believe that some of the danger from volcanic eruptions—which release so much ash into the air and could rob us of summer—can be lessened. This has happened in the past. Therefore, we need the wisdom to store up provisions when the time is right. The Lord spoke to me: “Observe the ants when they harvest in the summer; when you can harvest, they lay up.” I think it is time that we begin to have a vision of what to store up, for this is going to be a time of shaking and storms.
Also, I believe that there are fungi and blights, as well as other afflictions, attacking our corn and wheat. These are issues we can and should pray about. I think we are going to need to return to the original strains of wheat. We have altered the genetics of our food supply, and before we go further, we need to go back to the original. It may not yield as large a harvest and it may not be what we are used to, but I believe it will be what is destined for us.
I don’t believe the United States will experience a time of starvation, but it is a time when we need to pray and ask our scientists to find new solutions. One blight can wipe out your entire corn crop because of the changes in corn and wheat genetics. This represents a loss of unity, because we have strayed from the original. We need to get back to the original—and also get back to the original God. We have too many gods; there is only one who is truly our God, the one who made us. Turn to Him and let Him begin to give us wisdom in financial matters.
It is a time for Christian scientific breakthroughs. There are Christians out there working on things that I believe will lead to great breakthroughs and bring wealth to the world. Some people are working on cold fusion—which is essentially water, where oxygen is separated from hydrogen—to produce unprecedented energy. I believe that we are the beneficiaries of that, and that Christians will be the ones to invent it, making energy so cheap that the entire world’s energy needs could be met. We must support these scientists in their breakthroughs.
I think it is time that we truly begin to pray for those who are saved, that they may achieve breakthroughs in science and in curing diseases like cancer. I look forward to that time, because when it happens, the wealth of the wicked will come to the righteous worldwide. It is a time when we really ought to begin, by faith, to have that great expectation that God is with us and that He is going to impart new ideas and new inventions and new understandings of health—unlike anything we’ve known before—a new understanding of how to break the curse. I believe that we are in a time when the Lord has broken the curse of the law for us, but we still have a curse upon this earth—the curse of the fall. I think we are in a time when we must envision breaking the curse of the fall. If you don’t have a breakthrough, then you won’t see an age where you have all the answers—but remember: you are the answer. The people of light are the answer; they are not the people of darkness. It is time for you, the redeemed of the Lord, to speak. You are the ones with the authority, and we are on the cusp of great change.
We are in a time as described in Jeremiah 33:3; we have never been in a time like Jeremiah 33:13 before. We have no idea if the Lord told us what would happen or if we truly understand what He is talking about. We are in a time—as Isaiah 40:6–7 indicates—when the spirit of prophecy will break forth, for the spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus Christ in our lives. What are you doing with your life? I think we are getting ready for the children of light to bear testimonies like never before. I believe you will begin to share testimonies of what God has done for your life, for your family, for your city, for your state, and for your nation. In this time of shaking, entire families will come together in unity, entire cities will unite in their dedication to the Lord, and our states and nations will come together in dedication to Him. We are in an exciting time.
In August—oh wait, I had a vision that I believe was transfigured—I saw that three elders of God were going to stand before the Father and give an account of what was happening in the body of Christ on earth. These three men were greatly honored in heaven; as it is described in Hebrews 13:17, the elders are to give a report in heaven about what is wrong on earth. The first man I saw was Jerry Falwell, and he would give a report on earth explaining why there were no morals left in the church. I believe the church is getting ready for a godly sorrow like you have never seen before—a sorrow that will bring back morals and honor, and restore the value of your word, as if it were a blank check. I believe we are getting ready for this kind of sorrow to come into play, leading us to embrace repentance, as referenced in 2 Timothy 2:24–25.
New bloodlines—God grants you repentance, and then it will be as if you had never sinned, and any curse that came because of your sin will be broken—curses in bloodlines and everything else. We are talking about new bloodlines, His bloodlines; we have never been this way before, so there is no other way to explain it, but we are in a new time. This new time began with Jerry Covell when he went on the second [builder]—I saw with Loren Roberts and other men of supernatural faith—when he stood before the Father, as he has recently done. He gave this report explaining why there is no longer any faith in the church, and if there is no faith, it is because there is no faithfulness.
So, get ready for a shaking in faithfulness to come back into the church—where believers are faithful to one another and to God—and where you begin to see supernatural faith working out of true, liquid love. I think you are getting ready to see liquid love coming to the body, where supernatural faith emerges. We always expect it to be some guy out in front, but it may be the least among us who comes in with that supernatural faith to create miracles. We need everybody in their proper place. We need to stop pushing back those who have just been saved, and we need to support even those whom we might not esteem highly. We must begin to support one another equally. I think we are in a time when you would be surprised at who possesses supernatural faith. I know that when I got saved, I was so turned on—I wasn’t afraid to do or say anything. We need newly saved believers, and I believe the church is getting ready for this. I believe the redeemed of the Lord are being elevated.
I said it’s a time like never before. There was a third man—preaching for Billy Graham—who stayed longer because we were not ready for that great harvest. They will come when he gives his report. We need two barns; we need time for these home meetings, barns to be put together, and barns to be built. I’m afraid the church is not ready for a million people to be saved every day, but it’s going to happen. We need to get these barns ready and bring them into a central hub—as you know it—as a church. We need to be part of that, and we also need to participate in barn building at the individual level. When Billy Graham goes home, he gives a report on where there is no evangelism or powerful evangelism. For these three elders, who are greatly honored in heaven, when they speak into the heart of the Father, He is going to release things that will change and be beloved.
Can you imagine 300 of these mighty men moving with supernatural power, accompanied by a quarter of a million youth? Can you imagine 300 older men—and even Jerry Falwell—creating miracles, healing arms, legs, organs, with a quarter of a million youth? Can you imagine 300 of these men coming to such a level of righteousness and holiness that they would shine like a light for all to see? The entire world is focused on entertainers and such, but these are messengers of light—nothing but light—focusing on the light of God and shining with morals, power, and evangelism.
I saw that when this happens, I saw a man who represents many. He was 25 years old; he had been saved for six months, and he was speaking of thousands of youth coming to the Lord. We are not ready for this yet, but we are getting ready for the youth to be released. The youth, who have been hidden, will come out of the sewers and cry out until they are totally clean and pure, and then they will go forth and cleanse others—those who have been believing and those who have compassion—coming forth with supernatural faith. Will we see creative miracles? I mean, consistent—not just sporadic happenings, but consistent deliverance from infirmity, plagues, and all types of viruses and afflictions. Consistently, I believe we are at a time when the absolute power of God is repeating Himself and being revealed in us.
We need to be ready because the harvest is coming—on a level we’ve never known before. In the next two or three years, it is critical to build these barns. We need to get a vision of what it is really going to be like, as individuals lead as many as a thousand people a week to the Lord on the streets, and then witnesses will appear like never before. So, it is time for the redeemed of the Lord to speak.
One other thing I want to share with you—I've shared it many times—it’s a nerdier prophecy, and it’s weird. He pointed it out: the 1950s revealed the power of God through William Brennan and other mighty men of God—truly awesome stuff. The 1960s revealed the Spirit of God when the Holy Spirit began invading the dominant churches. The 1970s began to reveal the Word of God; that was when the great teachers were given a grip on what had already taken place. The 1980s revealed the Spirit of God when real prophets began to rise. The 1990s revealed a revelation that there should be a godly, apostolic government. The 2000s were the beginning when we began to get a vision of the glory of God and see His glory in different times.
But now, the 2010s are about having faith in God—having the faith of God—and with that faith, we are going to need to have a clean, conscientious spirit, mortal though we may be. We are going to need compassion, power in evangelism, and love for souls in our hearts. What is the faith of God? It is that which reflects the Father’s heart. When your consciousness is pure, the Holy Spirit will reveal to your mind what is in the Father’s heart. When this happens in your spirit, your mind becomes the catalyst—it proclaims, speaks creative words, and gives the Father permission to act. By that, I mean the Father has given you all the authority (as the heavens belong to God, yet He is placing the earth in the hands of man). When you speak what is in the Father’s heart, you give Him permission to do His will on earth. That is what the faith of God is—it is the dispersion of the keys of the kingdom: simply speaking what is in the Father’s heart.
When you receive this, as in Matthew 16:19, you can bind and loose—closing doors and opening up heavenly blessings. You can unleash the kingdom of God with a power you’ve never seen before, in complete agreement and harmony with the Father’s heart. In 2020, because of the challenges we face, the true church will be brought into a place of rest, and God will literally work through you. I think everything is aligning now for a place for the Father to move in with you—the pieces are coming together so that you may walk in union with the Father, with the Spirit resting in you as you rest in Him.
In 2030, I believe we will see the family of God—a time when differences will diminish, and there will be one huge family. In 2040, I believe it will be revealed: the kingdom of God—the kingdom of heaven on earth—will be established. Some in the church have already made plans to remain here permanently, and I think you ought to get a long-range vision of staying here and of the coming forth of the kingdom of God. In 2050, the sons and daughters of God, having matured into the likeness of Christ, will oversee all the earth. Give me one of the devil’s worst hours—and I believe his worst hour has begun—and the faith of God will begin this year. It will literally be like an antidote to every venom. I think it’s time we see our sisters and brothers stepping up to stop the head of the enemy. It is a different time than we’ve ever known before. So do not let fear or trouble distract you; this is your finest hour. Saints, raise up to the occasion—put your face into the wind and move forward.
Well, that was an awesome message from Bob Jones, and I would suggest that you listen to it over again and take notes, as you heard him say many times in this recording, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.” It’s time that Christians do just that—we need to take our rightful place and decree the word of the Lord. We have been given all authority, and it’s time that we exercise it.
In March of 2018, the Lord told me that Pandora’s Box was going to be opened, and I wrote about it in the 2019 Shepherd’s Rod. According to Greek mythology, Pandora opened a jar containing sickness, death, and many other unspecified evils, which were then released into the world. Though she hastened to close the container, one thing was left behind—a remnant translated as hope. I believe that box has been opened and that the seven storms have culminated into the perfect storm that Bob saw back in the early 1990s, as we are now facing a worldwide pandemic.
Believers must not lose their anchor of hope; we must be the children of life and demonstrate the faith of God, not fear. As Bob said, the newscasters are like terrorists, and if you listen to or watch TV, that’s what you’ll hear—it is more fear-driven than faith-driven. And as Bob said, don’t let fear or trouble distract you, for this is the church’s finest hour. Lift up your faith and persevere; let your life be a witness to others, for out of this darkness great light shall come, and the glory of the Lord will rest upon His children. After these great storms settle, the field will be ripe for harvesting, and if you follow any of the great movements of God, remember that there was always darkness before the light. So get ready, because the great harvest—the billionfold harvest that Bob prophesied and waited for—is now at hand. He talked about building barns—our barns, our barns; we are those barns, and we must be ready, for the harvest is here. Be blessed and fear not; stand in faith in Jesus’ name.
