Prophecy: America Will Be Revived, Rebuilt and Restored

We have all heard the stories that through the preaching and anointing of Charles Finney in upstate New York, factories were shut down by the power and glory of God. Some have longed for these days to return. The Lord spoke to me that in this generation, the glory and presence of God will be so strong upon many prophetic gatherings that:

As My people declare the Word of the Lord over regions in America, factories will reopen and dying manufacturing industries will revive and come to life again. This will cause many in the world to be in shock and awe. Those who had forecast that all factories and the manufacturing had left America forever will shake in fear as it comes to life again through the prophetic decree.

I see the fear of the Lord returning in the nation, and many will shake as America rises from the ruins and waste. I see God will revive, rebuild, restore what many have called the wasteland of America. I saw this come in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania this past weekend!

“and the Lord shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and strengthen your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. Those from among you shall rebuild the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generation and you shall be called, the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Paths in which to Dwell. 

If because of the Sabbath you turn away your foot from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable, and honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words, then you shall delight yourself in the Lord, and I will cause you to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken it” (Is. 58:11-14).

 

The River Called ‘Revelation 22’

Recently while I was ministering in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the Lord revealed to me His intention to bless the nation. I was shown a river that will flow out of the city and the state of Pennsylvania. In the natural, we know that there are three rivers in Pittsburgh, but in prayer, I began to see a fourth river flowing; it was supernatural. The Lord called it “Revelation 22″—a river to bring healing to America in a double portion.

Then he showed me a pure river of the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb in the middle of its street. On each side of the river was the tree of life, which bore twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations (Rev. 22:1-2).

The Lord spoke to me that this river once flowed in the days of Kathryn Kuhlman. The nation saw this river flow when she held her great healing campaigns in the city of Pittsburgh.

Thousands of people flocked to the river for healing and the city thrived spiritually during that time. I saw this supernatural river touch the city in a different way as well. In the natural during that time much of the steel industry was blessed in the state of Pennsylvania and prosperity flowed from the state to the nation, but in 1976, Sister Kuhlman went to be with the Lord, and in her death, the anointing greatly waned in the region, and the river ceased to flow as it once did. Just as the healing river began to dry up, so too did the steel industry, and many lost their jobs as a result, and finances became tight and the people suffered.

Pennsylvania—a Sign of Healing in America

On March 11th as I was preaching, I saw the healing river rise again in the city. I could hear the sound and could see the river bursting forth. I heard the Lord say that, “The healing river will once again flow from this city and this state to heal America, but this time it will double.” I saw miracles and wonders flowing out of Pittsburgh and the state of Pennsylvania— this will be one of many cities to come in America.

I heard the Lord say, “As the sign that the river has returned, I will revive the steel industry of Pennsylvania.”

He spoke to me that He would use the state of Pennsylvania as a sign to America of what He will do in many manufacturing cities across the nation. He told me He would revive the steel industry to rebuild the nation once again—to show the world His power to restore, revive and rebuild not only cities and nations, but His very people.

Pennsylvania would be a sign of the river of healing flowing through America. I saw Pennsylvania steel flowing like a river across America and men and women going to work once again. I saw bridges rebuilt, buildings restored, factories revived across the country all through Pennsylvania steel companies. I saw other manufacturing jobs return and other cities rebuilt, restored and revived.

Another city and state I saw touched as well was Detroit, Michigan and the automobile industry. It came to life once again, and I saw automobiles flowing across our roads like a river. So many American factories and manufacturers came back to life.

The Lord spoke to me and said, “Son, this is a time for America to be revived, rebuilt, restored, and it will start with Pennsylvania and the steel industry.” {eoa}
