Cindy Jacobs Addresses Fearful Prophecies Over America
With several months of the year of the whirlwind before us, how should we position ourselves amid the doom and gloom? That’s a good question—and one I’ve been pondering more and more lately. In fact, I’ve discussed it with many prophets and prophetic people in the last couple of weeks—and I’ve prayed plenty.
Should we store up three years worth of food? Take all of our money out of the bank? Hide in a cave, praying for the best but believing the worst? Leave the country? What should be our response? I, for one, refuse to let a spirit of fear over take me, despite all the doom and gloom prophecies.
Cindy Jacobs, co-founder of Generals International, says first of all we are to obey the admonition from Scripture to not give in to fear. She is convinced the enemy wants to stir up panic and distress. But she is also convinced we have to stand firm, trusting God’s faithfulness.
“I want to share with you what I am hearing prophetically at this moment. On a global level, God is changing the landscape of financial power. Some nations are going to find that their ‘cash cows’—the commodities that have propped up their ideologies—are diminishing or being taken away. This will even begin to affect the terrorist organization, ISIS,” Jacobs says.

“Is there going to be a total collapse such as we saw in 2008? If there is, I do not have a word about that. In past economic shakings, I have known in advance that a severe crisis would take place,” Jacobs continues. “For instance, in January of 2008, the Lord spoke the word to me, ‘There will be no more business as usual.’ It could be that this time around the Lord has simply chosen to speak to other prophets and not me, and that is His prerogative.”
Still, because so many voices—both prophetic and secular economic analysts—are pointing to extreme economic trouble this fall and even into 2016, Jacobs is praying hard through this season. I am praying with her—and so should you. She reports positive prayer answers after taking her prayer team to Wall Street to intercede for God to give us a course correction instead of a complete economic meltdown.
“As we move into the September/October months of the Jewish New Year and the appearance of the fourth blood moon, what do I know that I have heard? Historic changes will take place in the coming days that will be a prophetic catalyst for a great awakening. God is setting the stage for revival and harvest,” Jacobs says. “I also have a strong admonition that we are in a time of hearts being tested—whether we will rely on our own strength and capabilities, rather than God’s.”
I stand in 100 percent total agreement. I’m hearing the similar things are so are the likes of Chuck Pierce, Bill Hamon, Barbara Yoder and Ryan LeStrange. I’ll share more with you about the revelations in the days ahead, but for now, let’s get to the question about storing food. Should we store up mass amounts of food?
I live in South Florida, where hurricane season has caused devastation so I do have food and water stored. But I do not have three years worth of dried food in my house. Even if I wanted to, I could not possibly store up that much food in my little beachfront condo. If the Lord has told you to do that, obey—but don’t move out of fear. Jacobs says if we’re hoarding out of fear it’s not from the Lord.
“In truth, no matter what comes, we are called to be overcomers. There have been many dire prophecies, but they all are conditional upon a lack of repentant hearts. At the moment, there are a number of prayer projects and fasts being called by various ministries, and our Reformation Prayer Network stands with them as well,” Jacobs says.
“God will be the same great God in the coming days as He is right now at this very moment. He is not about to forsake His children, no matter what transpires. He is vitally interested in our personhood, families, and futures. God is setting the stage to make some serious history, and I, for one, am not afraid of the future because He is my future—eternally!”
And I offer a hearty “amen!”
