At a time of massive global disruption, threats of nuclear war, and catastrophic natural disasters of biblical proportions\u2014when 63 percent of evangelical Christians believe we are \u201cliving in the end times\u201d and nine in ten pastors say current events align with what Jesus warned would happen before His return\u2014many are looking at how President Donald Trump fits into unfolding biblical prophecies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For many followers of Christ, Trump\u2019s return to the White House is seen as part of God\u2019s plan for America and the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prophetic voices have compared Trump to Cyrus the Great, the Persian king who helped the Israelites return from exile. Others view him as a modern-day Jehu, the disruptor who exposed and addressed the corruption of his time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voices like Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, Lance Wallnau and Joseph Z believe Trump has been chosen to challenge the Deep State and pave the way for national repentance and revival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the years, I\u2019ve interviewed many faith leaders about how America may fit into God\u2019s prophetic timeline, including Cahn. His 2012 book The Harbinger<\/em> ignited a national conversation about judgment and the need for repentance. More recently, he\u2019s drawn parallels between Trump and Jehu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember, Jehu was a warrior king, raised by God to disrupt the entrenched powers, tear down the idolatrous altars of Baal and rid Israel of corruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jehu wasn\u2019t part of the establishment. Nonetheless, he was anointed by God to challenge the wicked rulers of his time, including Jezebel and Ahab, who had led Israel into apostasy. Likewise, Trump, also an outsider, came onto the political stage rough and unpredictable. He won reelection vowing to \u201cdrain the swamp\u201d and push back against globalist policies that many view as a threat to American sovereignty and religious freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the National Faith Advisory Board\u2019s Inaugural Faith Summit in 2024, Cahn said Trump was \u201cborn to be a trumpet of God, a vessel of the Lord, with a destiny to overturn America\u2019s \u2018cult of Baal\u2019 and end the sacrifice of millions of unborn babies\u201d through the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Political commentator Lance Wallnau sees Trump as a modern-day Cyrus, the outsider king chosen by God to free the Jews from Babylonian captivity and rebuild Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like Cyrus, Trump is a figure who came from beyond the halls of power, yet God is using him for a higher purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wallnau has cited Trump\u2019s decision to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem as pivotal, mirroring Cyrus\u2019s decree allowing the Jews to return to the Promised Land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI believe Trump is the chaos candidate who has been set apart by God to navigate us through the chaos coming to America,\u201d Wallnau wrote in God\u2019s Chaos Candidate. \u201cWith him in office, we will have authority in the Spirit to build the house of the Lord and restore the crumbling walls that separate us from cultural collapse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prophetic voice Joseph Z also views Trump as a figure God chose to restore America to its Judeo-Christian roots. He sees Trump\u2019s leadership as part of God\u2019s bigger plan to ignite revival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI believe that he is fulfilling the prophecy that is similar to what you write about, and many of us talk about, and that is the Cyrus prophetic word,\u201d Joseph Z said. \u201cI believe he is fulfilling a prophetic purpose for the body of Christ at this time. And I believe that God is raising him up to not only rescue America, but help the church get through and fulfill the Great Commission for our generation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2015, before Trump took office, Joseph Z stood in Trump Tower asking God who would win the election. The answer stunned him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI said, \u2018God, is America going to go down? Is it going to burn? Is it over with?\u2019 And the Spirit of the Lord roared to me in Trump Tower and said, \u2018No, America has one more round, because the young lions are coming.\u2019\u2026I believe if we stand as the righteous, we will push aside this onslaught of what I call the wicked lizard overlord mafia that answers to their goblin masters trying to run this place into the dirt,\u201d Joseph Z said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before the 2024 election, Joseph Z told me Trump\u2019s reelection would ignite a \u201cpopulist revival.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI believe the revival we\u2019ve all been praying for and believing God for is going to come,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019ll be a populist revival. I believe the followers of Donald Trump, or those who are having rallies and gatherings\u2026[are] a catalyst for revival. I believe God is using politics to wake up the nation, but I believe the church will come in and induce revival through some of these gatherings, because when they realize politics doesn\u2019t have the answers they\u2019re looking for, the church will rise up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trump\u2019s policies, especially his support for Israel and religious freedom, are, in Joseph Z\u2019s view, good signs. Still, he has a warning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe Lord spoke to me [following Trump\u2019s reelection] and said, \u2018The church is the nuclear deterrent,\u2019\u201d Joseph Z said. \u201cI got a witness in my spirit that said\u2026If we get to July [2025] without a nuclear incident\u2026we\u2019re going to see the turn of the tide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI believe we\u2019re in sixteen years of redemptive instability where we\u2019ll see a turnaround and victory come. I believe we could see twenty years of life that begins the rebuild to the year 2040; I believe God has a marker on that year.\u2026 The word of the Lord for 2025 is that we, as the body of Christ, the ecclesia, are to storm Babylon. We are to continue rising in prayer, pushing back [against] this nefarious agenda of witchcraft, darkness, social evils, this woke ideology, this control over our economics, this wickedness that\u2019s happening with an invasion of our nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n These faith leaders see Trump\u2019s role as a disrupter, helping break the grip of entrenched powers on the United States\u2014the Deep State, globalists, and the political elite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether it\u2019s through his defense of Judeo-Christian values, foreign policies, or resisting the establishment, they believe God is using Trump to accomplish a bigger plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In my last book on Trump, The Trump Code<\/em>, I explored the curious parallels between Trump and the nineteenth-century novels The Baron Trump Collection<\/em> by American lawyer Ingersoll Lockwood. They seemed to have predicted his rise to power in uncanny ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the book approached its September 2024 release, I asked questions on social media that sparked debate, including a post on my Prophecy Investigators\u2019 X (formerly Twitter) account featuring an image of the book and the headline: \u201cJudgment or Revival\u2014Great Awakening or Great Reset?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It garnered over 2.6 million views and generated hundreds of comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Could these novels written in the 1890s have foreshadowed Trump\u2019s rise? Could the mysteries of time, the work of Nikola Tesla and Albert Einstein, and prophetic destiny play a role in the events we\u2019re witnessing now? Is Providence guiding events in ways we barely comprehend?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, in Designated Disrupter<\/em>, I\u2019m asking a deeper question: Could God be using controversial figures\u2014Trump, Tucker Carlson, Jordan Peterson, Russell Brand, and many others\u2014not just to disrupt politics and culture but to inspire a global spiritual awakening?<\/p>\n\n\n\n I believe America is in the \u201cNineveh moment\u201d foreseen by famed evangelist Billy Graham. We\u2019re at a tipping point. Either we return to God or we face collapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My friend Joseph Z understands the importance of the prophetic moment we\u2019re living in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTroy, your data on the story of Baron Trump and his Uncle Don, and all these things that are happening in this narrative, are so profound they\u2019re actually breathtaking,\u201d Joseph Z said. \u201cThere\u2019s a Latin term called sensus plenior\u2026a deeper, fuller meaning that happened before, is happening again, and repeating itself. What I see is a repeating anointing with a sensus plenior where Donald Trump is\u2026fulfilling the purposes of God.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Troy Anderson <\/strong>is a Pulitzer Prize\u2013nominated investigative journalist, six-time #1 bestselling author, founder and president of the Inspire Literary Group,<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At a time of massive global disruption, threats of nuclear war, and catastrophic natural disasters of biblical proportions\u2014when 63 percent of evangelical Christians believe we are \u201cliving in the end times\u201d and nine in ten pastors say current events align with what Jesus warned would happen before His return\u2014many are looking at how President Donald<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[205,377,181],"coauthors":[378],"class_list":{"0":"post-9480","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-faith","7":"tag-end-times","8":"tag-harbinger","9":"tag-trump"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9480"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9480\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9483,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9480\/revisions\/9483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9480"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cvnznews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcoauthors&post=9480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Lance Wallnau: A Divine Disruption<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
