Never have I been more solemn about anything I have ever written. Never have I felt the need to risk whatever credibility I may have with you. I am going against the grain of most, if not all, of the predictions about 2021.
Social media is flooded with preachers predicting the events of 2021. Many are not of God. They are driven by the desperate need to console the weary American Church. They are telling you the worst is over. They are telling you that we are about to be relieved and no longer on a war-footing. They are saying that we can now return to a peacetime church culture.
Not only are they horribly wrong—their message will leave you open to the attack of the enemy. Their words may be sweet to the taste, but in the end, they will be bitter in your stomach. (Rev. 10:9)
So then, how do we prepare for 2021?
From now on, we as American Christians and Patriots must become a united army in a desperate battle. The most important thing to impress upon an army is the reality of the threat. There is no way around it. Army of God! You must have it drilled into you that we are facing a long and hard road ahead.
We as the American church no longer need to have our ego stroked. We need someone to raise our morale as we prepare for war.
Winston Churchill faced this very task. On May 10th, 1940, Germany invaded France and the Netherlands. That same day in England, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain stepped down from his post, and King George VI tapped Winston Churchill to replace him. World War II was on, and Britain needed the right leader to guide the nation into the gathering storm which had begun to rage across Europe. Unlike Chamberlain and Lord Halifax, politicians who sought peace treaties and truces with Germany, Churchill recognized the necessity of war. Peace, he thought, meant submission―and submission meant death. On May 13th, Churchill gathered his war cabinet and went to address Parliament. The speech he delivered that afternoon—“Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat”—has become known as one of the most rousing speeches in British history. Churchill’s message was simple but powerful: Britain must fight―and Britain must win.
Churchill said these immortal words:
“I say to the House as I said to ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.
“You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
“You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs – Victory in spite of all terrors – Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.”
China, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, CNN, Hollywood, and the Democrat Party have woven the most insidious and vile web of deceit in American history. The rigged election is, for all real Americans, our version of “a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime.”
Thousands of pulpits, at this hour, believe the message of consolation is the message of the hour. No! It is not! We do not need comfort. We need outrage. We need the white hot rage of a people who will not go gentle into that dark night of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Our final answer to them is, ‘No! We do not accept the bitter bread of surrender and capitulation! No! You will not educate our children by wading them into a godless swamp. No! You will not steal our small businesses and our churches. No! You will not offer us as a living sacrifice to Communist China. We will not bow. We will not surrender. Not ever!’
2021 is not a year of soothing lambs, but of igniting lions. It is a year where we say to Satan, “We have not even begun to fight.” Beyond January 6—beyond January 20—beyond whatever human deadline has been declared. We are not going to stop. We are not going to slow down. Our ranks are closing. Our numbers are growing. Our fortitude and resolve is intensifying.
Our struggle for America is not ending…it is just beginning. The enemy needs to know we are never going away.
Again, to quote Churchill, “This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never, in nothing, great or small, large or petty…Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
I know I have been given this mandate about 2021: Forget predictions about what will happen. Instead, go after God and make something happen!

“calling an election [rigged] does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here.” – Hon. Stephanos Bibas (a Trump judge), U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals
Calling it a fair election doesn’t make it so either. The entire affair fails the smell test. Voting machines should never have wifi capability. Videos of questionable ballots being counted should never be dismissed. We have no idea how bad this was because the evidence was never given a chance to be presented. We have a right to call it fraud and to demand a fair and free investigation which has not happened. For 4 years Democrats lied about a Russian collusions when there was zero evidence. Joe Biden is not from God. If he was he would champion a full investigation so that his presidency would not be under a cloud. John 3:21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

Excellent reply, Mario/Ministries! The fraud committed in this election is so rampant, and so obvious, only those willfully blind refuse to see it. And that includes the RINOs in the House, the Senate, and the judiciary – all the way to the SCOTUS. Loved today’s article. Yes, (sigh)- we are in a war like never before, and we must fight with all the spiritual weapons at our disposal. And like Clark said, above: We. Must. STAND.
The Lord has the last word. That’s all I know. HE gets all the glory for the miracle He will perform. ????❤️
Mario – yes, indeed. The denizens of the swamp are rising to the surface. It is shocking how many, and the positions of trust they occupy. ‘Trust’ has been replaced by ‘Greed’. Personal ambition comes before nation and people. Hard to believe, but true. This exposé has to happen – any stone left unturned is an opportunity lost. The further this goes, the more previous administrations are implicated: how else could this level of corruption have occurred?
The left is starting to lose their marbles, which means we must press ahead, not doubt and not back down. There has been a breakthrough – more and more people are coming awake to the facts and the groundswell is rising! Thank goodness for the Alternative Media.
Fear not – push on in powerful faith under the banner of the Commander in Chief of Heaven’s Army. HE is faithful and I believe He will not let your nation down.
Queen, get out of your jungle and move to America. You are needed here.
LOL! My father’s twin lived in MA for 26 years and I visited there after she passed. I’ve got a special heart for USA – plus, it is the focus of this current battle. So goes the world, if we lose America! But I believe God will not let that happen if we seek His face. Check out the video I listed below – well worth watching. Blessings brother!
I’m not looking at predictions!
I’m with you- just waiting on God; I’m aware It may be awhile! I’m going to use my spiritual strength trusting!
Yes & Amen! And All God’s People Said BRING IT! WE WILL FIGHT! WE WILL STAND!
As I prayed, at midnight, I prayed that we keep our eyes focused on God and His Word and that we have a hard next four years to look to. Then I went to my email just before going to bed and found your statement. It was exactly what I believe Father is telling us. Keep our eyes on Him and His Word. As believers, we need to stand together no matter what faith or religion.
The other day, when all seemed lost, I felt a peace I hadn’t felt in a long time. I no longer fear the situations that are set before us. One thing we all have to look forward to is eternity without suffering and only with joy. Then I saw a picture, by Thomas Kinkaide, of a small mansion. I thought to myself, Jesus said he goes to build us a mansion. I saw that picture, with it’s lights in the windows and a peaceful setting. That will be my mansion, and I will never be alone.
This is what I’m going to focus on. I am angry how the democrats stole the election, but I refuse to let it steal my peace. That’s truly how to beat the devil. He doesn’t know how to handle believers when they refuse to let him steal their peace.
Back in the late ’80’s/early 90’s I had the privilege of attending a “sit at his feet” monthly meeting with Leonard Ravenhill in Lindale, Texas. Brother Ravenhill had a bright fire burning in his soul. He loathed the compromised state of the church even back then. He said that in his opinion only a small percentage of those professing to be Christians were really saved and ready to meet God. He used to say that sports and entertainment had become America’s god. That “our children knew more about what was on channel 5 than what is in Matthew 5.” He spoke of the love and respect that he had for the church in China. That they loved Jesus and His church so much that they would sing songs about being martyred for His glory. He felt that few Americans would be committed enough to Christ to sacrifice much of anything for His glory. And many of my preacher friends disliked Brother Ravenhill and his message. They called him “legalistic.” Said he preached “too hard.” I wonder what Brother Ravenhill would think today if he was still walking among us! Keep on stirring the Church, Mario. Thank God for your voice, and for your fire. There is a remnant who are still full of the Holy Ghost and fire. We will not give up. We will never surrender. To God be all glory!

On point Mario!
We must persevere in this fight to save our Republic.
And for those Christians who continue to believe that a Biden/Harris Administration does not pose a threat to them, how wrong they are. If anything, the attack against believers will only intensify and not subside under Biden.
Already groups like the Secular Democrats of America have presented to Biden policy recommendations to transform America into a secular society. This includes repealing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which was adopted in 1992 to protect religious expression and has been integral in several religious-liberty victories in court. And also removing the motto of “In God We Trust” from our currency.
A Biden/Harris Administration is not benign to Biblical values, but seeks to destroy them.
We must fight and not concede!
A blessed victorious new year to you, Mario, MMM, and the Body of Christ!
Since the battle is the LORD’s, the victory is ours. So we MUST take that stand as we begin. Don’t take His promises lightly. Jesus died to PAY every jot & tittle of the curse FOR us.
He died to restore the Blessing TO us.
(Gal 3:13,14,29) Be teachable, be correctable! MAKE the corrections!
Mario warns us; yet, in the warning is something great! We just got our clue to RECOGNIZE the strategy of the enemy: to lull people into a sense of self-pity, to “comfort” people into …subservience ! Miserable comforters, we say!!
We rise up in strength as we wait upon the LORD. Fully armored with the spiritual weaponry of the LORD. Considering the pieces of armor. We are putting on each piece deliberately. (Eph 6)
The steps of the righteous, then, are ORDERED OF THE LORD.
HE inhabits the praises of His people!
Shall we grumble, murmur & complain?? No, PRAISE HIM all you peoples, PRAISE HIM! Pray incessantly in our prayer language! Open that gift (of speaking to the Father in that particular language) speaking forth the mysteries, plans & purposes of God. BE built up in your most holy faith.
Study the Word more than the media.
More Word equals More Light. We are told to encourage one another. Do so. Jesus did not come to condemn. He came to teach us abundant life. His life.
We, in turn, can disciple others to emulate Him.
Oh be enriched, people, our God is for us. God is our fortress, our strong tower. Be strengthened. Be faithful to Him, in Jesus’ Name.
Stand, stand, stand. Hold onto your love, joy & peace in the Holy Ghost.
Don’t sell yourself short.
Get in the Word for all you need to go forward victoriously, in your individual callings, to God be all glory.
?With all creation we sing, praise to the KING of kings; You are our everything; and we will adore You.?
I sing that line this way: “With all creation I sing, praise to the King of Kings, You are my everything and I DO adore You! 🙂
Amen!
Wordforworld, SHOUT IT FROM THE HOUSETOPS! You are saying the scripture is prophetic in nature and is the more sure word? You are cutting against the grain of doubt and unbelief and saying every believer has a voice of victory in the contradictions? You are saying we should shout with the voice of triumph? You are saying we can be like Joshua and Caleb with another spirit and stomp the devil in the ground? You are saying the God of peace will bruise satan under our feet shortly? You are saying IN all these things we are MORE than conquerors through Him that loved us? You are saying Jesus is building His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it? You are saying the Gospel is Good News 24/7? You are saying because we are saved by grace, we are just as safe on the journey as when we get there? You are saying you believe the Bible? WHAT? I AGREE WITH YOU 10,000 PERCENT!
Clark, thanks for such encouragement! Surely do appreciate it. God bless you and your family with a blessed, victorious new year!
Good morning Mario and happiest new year wished to you!
My name is Kerry and my family & I live in Ft Wayne, IN.
I simply wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this word that I read today.
Thank you for being so honest and open and the times that we find ourselves in.
Actually, these are the times that The Sovereign Lord has divinely placed us in and what an honor that He has entrusted us.
As I read todays new year message I felt like a warrior that was mentally preparing for battle and felt the gravity of what is at hand.
I loved the quotes from Churchill.
I leave you with my favorite verse and a great promise from our great God. Isaiah 41:13…
I The Lord your God will hold your right hand saying to you, “Fear Not, I will help you”.
I love you & appreciate you Mario and may our Warrior King fill us with His Warrior Spirit for the times that are before us.
Blessings in Jesus name.
Kerry Grisham
Ft Wayne, IN.
Thank you Mario for the rallying cry to persevere and never give up! The Family Watch International is an organization that is working (20 years) to bring to light all the nefarious plans by the United Nations to further the work of sexualization of our innocent children. This is now hitting our nation’s soil and will not stop, I fear,with either outcome in the governance of our nation. We as Christians must monitor and hold accountable with our knowledge of any plans to tear down our families as God has designed us to be. We will always have a mission and must engage in the spiritual warfare by presenting Truth and Light to the darkness that is always with us until the return of Christ! Thanks to you, Mario in giving us the charge to do so!
“…….Our fortitude and resolve is intensifying”….YES❗️….and AMEN❗️????…”Instead, go after God and make something happen.”…YES❗️…and AMEN❗️

The predictions are meaningless, they are done by people who need to be significant in their own minds. Everyday, they have something God told them. God does not lie.
Jehovah God, through the prophet Jeremiah, told Judah they would go into captivity to Babylon for seventy years. All the other prophets were saying that this would not happen. We are fine. The one true prophet of God said what God told him was going to happen and it did. I think we can learn something from the scripture below.
Jeremiah 27:14-15
[14] So do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they prophesy a lie to you; [15] for I have not sent them,” declares the LORD, “but they prophesy falsely in My name, in order that I may drive you out and that you may perish, you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
I believe God wants to clean up the church and these pseudo-prophets and some of these charlatan spiritual advisers to our President. All have the same message….they had a dream, or even worse, they lie and have said God told them, this or that. If God tells you something, you know it will be true, it will come about, and it will not align differently than what He has already said will happen in His written Word. Please go back and read where we are in time in Matthew chapter 24. I personally would hope and pray for four more years of our current President. Its just like you say Mario, we will have to stand our ground against the wicked machinations of the evil left and woke church. We will not be able to do that without the guidance of the Holy Spirit in our lives. There is only one Faith and one Gospel, there can not be compromise in that. That has been part of the problem the past 50 years, we have been complacent about the sins of our country and have given the enemy a key to our houses and country. If you are going to be a leader in the true church, know what God’s Will is and teach sound doctrines and not myths, traditions of men….and as one man of God said, (let the reader use discernment) lol …..burn your skinny jeans and remove your fog machines and replace it with repentance and the Holy Spirit.
Hebrews 1:1-2 NASB
[1] … God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, [2] in a these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, …
How do you know they lie, look at some of their most recent predictions, or false prophecies like that corona virus would be gone, some said even by last Passover. They are always predicting something new every year year usually with some sort of great financial blessing. Our blessings throughout the New Testament are spiritual blessings. We have put the carnal American made gospel, that everything is about God blessing us with material matters. We are like Israel, we have been blessed over the years, more than any other country and yet the church, it’s woke leaders, government and the people reject God’s laws, judgement will come, in perhaps in a manner we can’t see, because God’s ways and thoughts are so much higher than the way we think. We need as individuals of the true body, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to repent, and turn back to Him and quit playing church and listening to a thirty minute sermon on how to be a more productive you.
I still pray that President Trump will find some way to show all the world what has been taking place here in our elections and expose the lawless left society we have now. This is a time we must align ourselves with the Word in Spirit and Truth. Let’s not waste a time like this.
“Seek ye FIRST the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you”. Jesus said that. What bible are you reading? It’s about having your priorities in order and not being covetous. David, a man after God’s own heart, declared, “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” Holiness is not poverty.
bdk11,
“I believe God wants to clean up the church and these pseudo-prophets and some of these charlatan spiritual advisers to our President. All have the same message….they had a dream, or even worse, they lie and have said God told them, this or that. If God tells you something, you know it will be true.”
You made some very good points. All prophecy since the beginning of the New Testament is to be tested. If a prophecy is wrong, that doesn’t necessarily mean the prophet lied, though. But if they get a really big one wrong, or if they’re wrong more often than they’re right, it does make you question their competence. I mean, if they’re wrong about a prophecy, then you start to wonder, “Okay, how many OTHER things are they wrong about too?” 😉
Christians—and people in general—tend to be too *trusting*. But trust is something that has to be earned. If a prominent Christian leader makes an inaccurate prophecy, then they should not be given a free pass—*especially* if they don’t apologize. Instead, everything they say in the future should be questioned—and possibly just ignored. 😛
Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Psalms 7:9 (KJV) Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
It is time for the wickedness of the wicked to come to an end!!! That will never happen by prediction and prognostication……..it will ONLY come by acting on God’s Word!! Of course, in order to do that you must first KNOW the Word!
2021 is the call to arms for EVERY BELIEVER….Are you ready?
Thank you Evangelist Murillo for telling the Truth, in Jesus! Thank you for not “Coddling” the Church like we’re all babies.
We Are an Army! God’s Christian Army, having the weapons of our warfare on! Waging war in the Spirit, and then in the natural, against All Evil! In Jesus!
For the Lord, For our families, For our Country! Even for, in, and with Jesus our Victory!!!
Yes, conjecturing what might happen is a trap, and indicative of a desire to just go back to comfort. Getting through the Red Sea, getting Donald Trump inaugurated, is only one victory. It gives us a solid place to continue the battle, with a little less hindrance. But, just like the Israelites, once on the Sinai Desert side, there was a lot more to conquer, and not much relaxing. We’ll be able to celebrate, but be always ready to war. This is the real beginning of the end times. The devil isn’t going away. He’ll ramp it up, to keep us from our commission to save souls for Christ, to destroy as many as he can, and we will be on high alert and watch till Jesus comes. We must fill our oil flasks full of the Holy Spirit!
Absolutely, Fromanislandinnewhampshire, Absolutely! God bless you & your family in this year of victory!
My hand literally is ON the Word that says in Eph 6:16-18, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Be not unwise, but understanding what the will of LORD is, be not drunk with wine (which is excess) ; but BE FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT
Correction. It’s Ephesians 5:16-18. Otherwise, Happy (Belated) New Year, and God Bless America.
Thanks, Albany! Appreciate it!
And a blessed year of victory to you and the United States of America, in Jesus’ powerful Name, amen!

________________________________
Thank you Mario, we have that same speech on our computer. Mario I can’t help but wonder if we all shouldn’t be meeting together once in awhile to encourage and strengthen one another. (just a thought) They are continuing to harass me on a daily basis. Today I was in a lot of pain in my body and felt sick. Had to leave the house to get away from them with my son. Today at about 4 inn the morning they release some kind of powder into our place, the smell was strong and went right up my nose (this was after my son went to bed). They also were sending high pitched sound waves over our home and of course releasing toxic chemicals into the air. Sometimes I don’t know how I can keep taking this. We have to have the water on sometimes all day and night because of the toxic smells coming into our place from them. They are in control of the water, electricity and the envirement here. The owners , management company and Police can do little or nothing. Please keep us in prayer. Thank you.
The sky is falling!
Susan, who is doing this to you?
The voice of lies is doing this to Susan.
Susan, I am praying for you.
Reblogged this on Covenant Chronicles with Chris Lovett.
AMEN! AMEN! and AMEN!
Mario – Having stood as awatchmanonthewall for over ten years I stand with you now and offer my complete support of this word. Holy Spirit has repeatedly spoken to me the battle is not over, it has just begun. Those who speak otherwise, those who speak of a snatching away to ‘rescue’ the flock speak a false narrative, one that will lead many to a place of weakness and surrender. Continue to speak, you are not in the trenches alone. If God be for us, who can be against us?? We are on the LORD’ side and we will ‘never give up.’ LORD bless. aw
That’s not correct, Ali. The Rapture is one of the clearest prophecies in Scripture. It is not a “false narrative”.
It’s not so much a rescue as it is a Blessing, a reward for those who remained faithful. It’s the Blessed Hope.
Those who are aware of end times and realize that He could call us home at any moment, are the most aware that we have to be warning others. We are in the trenches and are definitely not lazy.
The question is not whether we are “Raptured” out of harms way.
The question is, is our eyes set and focused on Jesus?
Because even though I believe in a rapture, there is this other pair of verses that should help us focus on more important things.
I believe many will lose faith because they will think that the beginning of sorrows is the Tribulation.
More so in America, where the church has been mostly coddled until recently.
Yeah, 1Pe_4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
Mat_24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Mar_13:8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
You are correct kingskid48. Paul said, “Looking (present tense) for that Blessed Hope.” When you are always looking for that Blessed Hope your gaze is fixed on Jesus, you remain spiritually alert, and it purifies you.
All of history is for one main purpose: to develop the Church to be like Jesus and fulfill His original purpose (Gen 1:28).
This tiny part (our part) of history will be another step in accomplishing His purpose, and there will be many long years until the task is completed.
There is no easy way out – no quick escapist rapture, but there is struggle and sacrifice!
Are we up to this task, or will we slip back into comfort and apathy, and let the next generation move forward?
Matt 28;18, 19… We have our nation to disciple and teach. That is our small portion of history that we will be called to account for
So true, Kingskid48!
In 1Cor 15:51-58 St Paul reports a mystery.
Further details are given in 2Cor 12:2-4. Caught up!
As well, he gives us MORE info in
1 Thess 4:14-18 & 5: 9-10. Caught up!
Where 2 or 3 witnesses are, a thing is established.
This being “caught up” is same terminology used to describe the LORD’s experience in Acts 1:9(b) and 1:11(b) when He was taken up to the Father. 3rd Witness!
These settled the rapture issue for me !
(Then we have the experiences of Enoch in Gen 5:24 and Elijah, in 2Kings 2:11.)
What an exciting reward! May we all attain to pure hearts awaiting the Savior’s call. We are advised to comfort each other w/these words!
Thank you Mario Murillo! You are the ‘now’ voice of strength and faith in God for me and all who I influence. I can’t tell you how much courage I receive by reading your blog and watching you on Flash-point! I believe I am being led to support your ministry and in doing so, I am believing God will give me that same courage and strength to go forward in my mountain of influence -> Family and relationships! I feel like a Gideon with nothing (he forgot he had a covenant with God!)…but I believe what God did with his life, HE can do with mine! Amen? Emmie Phil. 1:27

I always agree with your blogs. Even though I attend a non-denominational Christian church, I recognize the TRUTHS that you speak of. I’ve read your latest book, “Vessels of Fire and Glory,’ and I’m astounded at our meeting of minds! I’ve felt and thought everything that you wrote about. I’m just a 64 year old grandma, but I’ve been working hard to share TRUTH with other believers this last year. Many don’t want to hear it. However, I’ve sensed an outpouring of the Holy spirit falling over America. God has been preparing me for most of my life, for this time in history. I truly see myself as a warrior in God’s army! I have a ways to go before there’s real life changing power in my prayers and my actions, but you encourage me when you say that waiting is important. I’ve been waiting on the Lord since the election. It’s been difficult to be silent, but God is still preparing the hearts of other believers to receive what he has for us in the near future. I know it’s hard for you to go against the majority. I have trouble finding like minded believers that truly understand the urgency to know and speak TRUTH. Some nice people might say they agree with me, but there’s no real discussion or connection. They’re just trying to be polite! Of course, there have been numerous people express their disagreement, partly because my husband is a retired Police Officer. The cop hate has made life hard for us. My husband was gifted by God to do the job right; God’s way. He’s always been respected, until recently. I recognize the spiritual war in the heavenlies, and I’m ready to do whatever it is that God has for me to do. Thank you for your faithfulness. Linda
Sorry to hear that happened to your husband. I pray for special favor to come on you and your husband the rest of your days on earth.
In the past all of your blogs were great, but this one far surpassed the rest. I have been in training for last 45 years of my Christian walk for such a time as this. Thank you for standing for the truth and not cheap grace.
Thank you
Alan
the next two years are critical. We have to leave our church communities and go out into the world. We have to be on the streets talking to young men who are killing each other. We have to be in the universities where young people are being indoctrinated. We have to reach out to the democrat strongholds of the big cities and universities.
Tablet magazine has two articles this week on “Wokeness”. That the left is leaving liberalism behind. Using a perverse language that only benefits the powerful. Once we understand the tools that are being used then we can reach those lost within that darkness.
Greg Dean, who have you reached out to in the streets? Have any testimonies to share?
Hello,
my "Biblical" prayer concerning this fierce spiritual warfare situation is: "Lord send confusion and fear in the camp of the enemies…"
because this is what God did often in the Bible when enemies were attacking Israel.

So right! Irmtraut, thank you very much! Blessed & victorious New Year to you.
We agree, in Jesus’ Name, that the communication of the enemy is confounded; they are confused, and turn on themselves!
What the LORD has done for others, He will do for us, He is no respecter of persons!
Thank You LORD OF HOSTS!
Thank you! And bless you!

CHURCH! If you’ve ever had marching orders these be them!
I love your articles, yes, we must fight, praying in the spirit like never before, but there is the other side of it as well. I do believe God is beginning to pour out of His spirit like never before!! So in the midst of the battle, the former and latter rain is coming, and it will be powerful as well. Thank you for your posts

Here’s a good verse for today:
“No wisdom, no understanding, and no counsel will prevail against the LORD.” Proverbs 21:30
I am marching with you all! Through boldly standing for Truth and Justice! Through prayer and orders from God! I join with the remnant that believes God’s orders are to stand and never give in to evil! ?☦️????
I don’t pretend to know what is coming this year. I have felt in my spirit for the last several months that 2021 is going to be intense warfare. Some in the spirit but also in the natural world as well. There will be no peace or prosperity as some are predicting. However, through it all will come the greatest harvest of souls in the history of the world.
David said that God prepared a table before him in the presence of his enemies! Can God prepare a table in the wilderness? Don’t limit the Holy One of Israel. God promises His own people peace in the midst of the storm.
David was a warrior. God calls him a man after His own heart, but also a man of blood!
He had very little peace in his life, but he was faithful to battle Israel’s enemies, and this led to peace and prosperity in the next generation.
Are we willing to sacrifice a life of peace, so that the generation to follow can have that peace?
Thank you, Mario:
A wonderfully anointed word for the beginning of 2021.
Thank you again for your courage and your resolve. The church needs you!
Sincerely, Holly Mayo Mobile: 604-226-5027

Amen. I have been getting this message since November of 2019! Thank you for standing firm on what God has given you (and me!). I continue to pray for you and your family.
I had Mario speak for my church in Campbell Ca a few years ago, great ministry soul winner. I do believe we are able to chew gum and walk at same time. I can Fear God and love God same time. Praise and pray in the same hour, etc. I do believe from scriptural authority, judgement must first begin in the house of God, these prophets that have spoken in the name of the Lord, must be judged in due time, to ignore them is insulting our ability to multitask as stated earlier. Yes we’re to first seek Gods kingdom and his righteousness, but there is a second. Just as the First commandment is to love God with all our hearts, The SECOND is as the first, love your brothers…so let us realize Gods great creation US, ABLE TO sort this out. May God continue to give us wisdom.
amen
Amen, amen, amen!
This was a great word, Pastor Mario. Truly one of your best.
I too, have a problem with all the sugary, “words”, that come flooding in at the first of the year, every year. All about, “blessings”, and “turnarounds”, and “breakthroughs”. I know God does want to bless us, He loves us, but we have to realize that life happens, and it isn’t going to get any easier as we move toward End Times. I would rather be told the truth and be ready for it, than be told things won’t be that bad, or that everything will be just fine, and be caught unawares. I’m not fatalist, I’m a realist.
He will be with us through whatever comes, but we are required to be alert, sober, prepared, aware, and working and standing for Him.
I watched a Perry Stone video last night. Although, he spoke well of Trump, he constantly referred to him in the past tense. I was surprised. He did not say that God had told him that Trump will not serve four more years. Perhaps he has said that in another video, I haven’t had time to watch very many lately. Maybe someone else knows if God has said anything to Perry? I do not. I know he doesn’t say anything is from God unless he knows it is 100% from Him.
It could be a difficult year, no matter what is decided and done on Jan. 6th. But if God allows Biden/Harris in there, it will be much more than one difficult year.
In the meantime, we have souls to save.
Amen Mario I agree with you 100%.
Churchill quote, “This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never, in nothing, great or small, large or petty…Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
For such a time as this…let’s save America with God’s help!
If you have never heard anything about the Bible’s call to arms. This is it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=8_4Z_rPgetk&feature=youtu.be
Please know Mario, there are many of us with you in this battle. We will not give up. Donald Trump will serve 4 more years—but that does not end the battle. We are fighting an evil enemy who does not stop. We saw that with the multiple different attacks on Pres. Trump—one after the other–all lies. I am amazed at the so called “leaders” in the church that call him the past president. Those who hear and are led by the Spirit of God know that he was put there by God for 8 years.
Don’t ever think that most of the church is engaged in this battle—-Oh, no—only the remnant. This time there are many in the battle that are fighting on different fronts. The fraud had to happen for the depth of the corruption to be exposed.
I thank God for you and the message you put forth. Thank you for staying in the fight. Please don’t ever stop—the church desperately needs you.

“We do not need comfort. We need outrage.”
That is exactly right! The devil doesn’t “play nicely” and neither should we as we pray!
Those pastors and Christians obviously do not know anything about Yeshua or the word of God at all. The children of God have Been given the earth to manage and create the government of God throughout the WORLD.
Using Jesus as our example he came preaching The gospel, not very well known among the clubs that we call church. He came preaching repent, change the way you think, the government of God has come and will take care of you. After he rose from the dead he possessed all the keys, all authority, and all power in heaven and in earth. He turned and gave it to his disciples and told them to go and create the government of God throughout the earth. The fivefold has failed miserably at their assignment, due to popular church structure.
When Jesus was confronted by church leaders that did not want to lose their power and standing, He identified them as children of the devil. He advised them that they would die in their sins. He did not try to convince them and pray for their salvation because he had already advised them that the government of God had come and if they would repent i.e. renew their minds to think like God they would be delivered and protected and made whole.
It is necessary for us to identify the children of the devil and take appropriate action by speaking God’s word over them that the Angels will perform in removing them. The other example is that there may be a time that we have to make a whip and clean the swamp out turning over tables and forcing them out. This is NOT a political issue of Democrat versus Republican this is a issue of good versus evil.
SO MUCH MORE…You must do Romans 12 & Timothy…STUDY!!!

Hi Mario,
I have been following your ministry for a few months. To be honest, I wasn’t aware of the ministry but although I am from Northern Ireland I have been following the US election very closely as the Lord impressed upon me how significant it was not just for the US but also for the UK and the world. I came across your ministry on YouTube and as I listened to you the Spirit of God witnessed with my spirit that you were speaking with a God-given clarity and truth was being revealed.
I have since read your book Vessels of Fire and Glory which just reaffirmed what I heard you say. I was blessed and encouraged.
I have also started to listen to Lance Walnau and noticed that you are on programmes with him on a regular basis. I have also started reading his book God’s Chaos Code.
I have been a believer for 30 years and the Lord by his grace has ensured that I have always been grounded in the truth of His Word as revealed by the Holy Spirit. Paul exhorted us to be sound in doctrine and not to be tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the sleight of men and cunning craftiness whereby they lie in wait to deceive Eph 4:14. I am deeply aware that the greatest danger to the remnant/elect in these last days is deception and for this reason I am constantly asking the Lord for discernment.
Therefore I just want to clarify a couple of things with you that I am concerned about:
1. Lance Walnau and Gene Bailey on Flashpoint on which you appear on a regular basis seem to be connected to Kenneth Copeland ministries and the Word of Faith camp who I believe are totally out of balance in relation to the prosperity message they preach and teach. Paul instructed Timothy to withdraw himself from those who were destitute of the truth supposing that gain is godliness and also warned about coveting riches 1 Timothy 6:5-10. I believe this message has done much damage to the body of Christ, making Christians self centered and taking the focus away from the teachings of Christ about self sacrifice, taking up our cross, suffering, and self denial being the road that leads to glory. These truths were clearly expounded in your book. I am also very aware of Kenneth Copeland and others being in league with the Roman Catholic Church and Pope Francis, along with the Anglian Bishop Palmer who spoke at one of their conventions in 2014 and was loudly applauded as he said the Reformation was over and basically said we should go back to Mother Church which according to scripture is a false, harlot, religious system which has deceived many and in my opinion will head the prophecied one world religion in the near future. Rev 13 & 17. I know that the Pope send a message which was loudly received by those so-called Pentecostal Bible believing spirit filled Christians and K Copeland, John Arnott, James Robinson etc went to see the Pope in Rome to discuss Christian unity. As the Word says what fellowship does light have with darkness, if they are in the light surely they and the likes of Joel Osteen would discern that which is of God and that which is of Satan.
My question to you Mario is do you agree with the teachings of Kenneth Copeland and the Word of Faith camp? Do you condone and agree with their efforts to unite the “Christian faith” by sucking up to the harlot of Rome and the one who claims to be Christ’s Vicar on earth?
2. Secondly I need to know where you stand on “Dominion Theology”. I have absolutely no issue with what both you and Lance teach about the church getting involved in every aspect of society and discipling nations ( Lance talks about the 7 mountains in his book but you didn’t mention this in your book). I believe we should be salt and light and that nationhood is a God idea and restraining force to one world governmental systems (Genesis 11) . I also believe that God is shaking everything in these days to bring forth his true remnant Church in the earth in order to fill his temple with his glory once again so that the glory of the latter house will be greater than even that of the early church (Haggai 2). However I do not believe thst there is any scriptural basis, for believing that the church takes over the world and then and only then can Jesus return. No the Bible teaches the exact opposite. There will be great tribulation and the AntiChrist and the False Prophet will control the world for 3.5 years and will be given power to make war with the saints and overcome them ( Revelation 13). This period will be cut short for the elects sake and the church will endure great persecution and suffering whilst operating in great power ( cf the early church) to bring in the endtime harvest of souls. Immediately after the tribulation of those days Jesus will return in power and great glory (Matthew 24) and will put down all rule and authority and then and only then will the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ and he shall reign forever and ever. Revelation 11:15.
My question is what is your doctrinal position on dominion theology?
I believe it is so important that we as the body of Christ are like the Bereans in Acts and search the scriptures to check out what is preached and taught. I don’t want to be deceived in this hour or miss out on the promised outpouring of his Spirit (Joel 2). It is for this reason that I am seeking clarity in relation to these issues and questions. I know that you are probably really busy with the upcoming crusade, blogs, ministry etc but I would really appreciate it if you would personally answer the questions. I will also be emailing Lance Walnau. I have been blessed by you both but need to spiritually sense check where you stand on these fundamental doctrinal truths, i.e. compromising the truth which results in apostasy and eschatology and the truth aa revealed in the Word concerning our Lord and Saviour’s second coming.
Yours in Christ

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!
Mario thank you for speaking the truth even when many do not want to hear it. In my spirit, I know we cannot return to the dead, lifeless, mundane services that we have endured for so long. This is truly a battle that will still be raging when our Lord returns. We that are occupying the earth at this time were ordained to do so from the foundation of the world. Chosen for such a time as this. My prayer is that I and all other chosen ones will achieve all that the Lord set us here to do and that it will be to His glory. I pray He will teach us how to war for the kingdom of God thru His Holy Spirit.
I am in awe of Mario of his courage, conviction and love for God. Mario is 100% correct we need to DEMAND God to take action.
Am decree and fasting and demanding, yes demanding God intervein because this is a SPIRITUAL WARFARE requiring spiritual intervention. Its not about the politicians or which party, its about having God among us and make America a GODLESS country.
We ALL need to stand together and look forward not BACKWARD and stand strong and stay the course, NOT GIVE UP. God is with us and never loose sight of the Light of God that never fails.
I am with you Mario and everyone from the strongest to the weakest. Keep our eyes on God and never let the naysayers disturb us. Press on God, He is in charge.

Thank you Mario this rings of solid truth to me! I half pie listened to one of those “everything nice” words and they didn’t sit at all well with me. We, the engaged Body of Christ, are in the fight of our lives. It is exhilarating, exciting, awe-inspiring, sometimes (it feels) like a rollercoaster but it is what we Must be a part of, if we are to partner with God Himself. It is not the time to beat our swords into ploughs but the time to Lift up the Standard of God higher and higher!
Winston Churchill was much disliked even by his own party. He was called for that time and he was the perfect choice, but he was a bone of contention for his fellow Members of Parliament. Tuff for Them!!! He was God’s choice and he galvanized the British & the Commonwealth to fight a tyranny that they were afraid of. It took 6 long years of hard slog and grind. If they had started earlier, when Neil Chamberlain “bought peace in our time” it would have been easier, because Hitler was not as strong.
Now, we the free democratic world, have No Choice, we have almost left it too late. But God is engaged, Praise Him! He does not lie, and He sends out His Word to accomplish His purposes. We have a choice to partner with Him or not. Personally there is no choice – I am compelled to stand with Him and not back down.
When Joshua went into the Promised Land he had to fight and fight and fight again to overcome the giants in the land. God’s will was for the Children of Israel to have the land, but they had to Fight for it. So Must We! This is Not the time for peace: this is the time for WAR. The Lord has raised up a Standard and the Army of God has arisen – both Angelic and Born Again, the True Bride. Give Him the Honour, Praise and Glory due to Him – He holds us in His Hands, the safest place to be.
At the end of the day, it will be the ‘will of the people’ that will decide the fate of this election.
Was man made for the Sabbath or the Sabbath for man. Is man made for the Law or the Law for man. Where there is injustice or laws that impede justice and the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, they get changed, as the ‘Declaration of Independence’ states:
“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness…”
No one has to be bound by bad laws, or the lack of good laws being applied. The people have the ‘will’, but those elected to office don’t, and are now revealing their true colours, “They were only in it for themselves”. The ‘heat’ needs to be applied so they will see the ‘light’. They are deliberately dragging their feet, believing that if they keep stalling long enough and doing nothing, Biden will be inaugurated. That will happen if we the people allow it to happen.
President Trump took an oath on becoming President, and we need to help him keep that oath. “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, ‘foreign and domestic’; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me ‘God’.”
Both foreign and domestic enemies are attacking America, and the people (of, by, and for the people), get a say in defending their country when the system is broken, just as they did in 1776. The executive, legislative and judiciary branches either do their job, or the people will, and that lifestyle they want to enjoy, will be taken from them. (As so for all those RINOs; Mitch McConnell etc)
Lk 17:33 “Whoever seeks to gain his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life (for my sake) will preserve it”.
America has to decide whether it is going to serve God or Satan. Serving God means living for the sake of others, and keeping the ‘Two Great Commandments’. It is simple, if you do not keep the ‘Two Great Commandments’ how can a country be great. It is ridiculous to think so.
America is up to its eyeballs in immorality, criminality, corruption and secular humanism. There is no greatness in that.
If America fulfils her God given mission and assignment, then she will be ‘justified, glorified’, and hence will be ‘great’. Not until then.
God Predestined His Will for America to become his House, His Temple, but America has given that away, as Esau gave away his birthright for a pottage of lentils; mammon essentially.
God has been preparing America to welcome the Lord of the Second Advent, but America as the bride must purify herself, wash her robes, and make herself ready, not make herself a whore prior to her bridegroom’s arrival and their wedding day.
President Trump is in the ‘heavenly Archangel position’, ‘With the voice of the archangel, and with the Trump of God’, to assist God’s children to re-enter Eden, just as it was the ‘fallen Archangel’ who deceived God’s children, and took them out of Eden.
The children must unite with the Heavenly Archangel as the angels assisted God and man in His providential work.
There is only one thing Christians and Americans need to be focused on right now, and that is, “Seeking first God’s Kingdom and His Righteousness” which means working together, as the Israelites ultimately did, building the wall and the Temple.
Love God, His Word and your neighbour, and establish a Kingdom of Righteousness and Justice.
“For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and of peace
there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this”.
God wants to govern His Kingdom through His people, that is what discipling a nation means. You bring it under God’s ‘discipline’; His laws, commandments and statutes. You do not give it away to the godless atheistic hordes, the Marxists, and bring false gods into the temple.
Mt 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to ‘obey’ all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age.”
This makes it very clear what we should have been doing, and must do now.
Thank you for speaking truth! I feel the same and I witness in my spirit that you are correct. It is time for the church to stand up and fight. I cringe as I drive around and see all the shuttered churches in my area (Bay Area – Contra Costa County). We are sending the wrong message to unbelievers too! I read a while back that during the early church days, there was a pandemic in the Roman Empire. It was the early Christians who ministered to the sick. They didn’t run away and hide to save themselves. They walked their Christianity and many were saved. Today’s churches are cowering at home instead of meeting in their buildings. Too many pastors are not preaching against abortion, same-sex marriage, the LBGTQ agenda, the dangers of socialism, etc. Yes, we need to hear the Word but we also need to hear the “hard” stuff too. I don’t want a feel-good gospel; I want the truth on how, as a born-again Christian, I can stand to the attacks of the enemy!
God Bless You Brother Mario! Go God in Bakersfield!
