Recounting a significant spiritual encounter from Apr. 7, 2016, Thompson explained that during a time of intercessory prayer, he was drawn into the spiritual realm. “An angel appeared to me on my right side, and I heard the angel say, ‘The dogs of hell had been released against the one with the hand of the Lord on him. Speak against the spirits of false witness, hatred and murder.’”
The angel’s message revealed that these spiritual forces—false witness, hatred and murder—were targeting Trump, whose image was “superimposed over the angel so that I could see both the candidate and this messenger from God.” Thompson elaborated, “False witness because they are inventing lies, fabrications, and falsehoods. Hatred… is visceral loathing and contempt. Murder… is character assassination and political death.”
He emphasized that this attack continues today, urging believers to remain firm in prayer and support. “Is Donald Trump still the one with the hand of the Lord on it? Yes, absolutely he is… I’m assuring you that God’s hand is working through him… to bring about this great shift… that’s ushering in a new Christian era.”
Thompson’s message of the power of prayer doesn’t end here. He says that believers are also instructed to stand tall and not just pray for God to answer, but to utilize their heavenly authority through powerful decrees. “Stand in authority for your country during these challenging times,” the angels told him. They instructed believers to go beyond asking God to intervene and instead “start decreeing over their nation what they believe.”
Explaining the difference between prayer and decreeing, Thompson said, “Prayer… is asking Him something. But a decree is when you use your spiritual authority to speak it.” He reminded listeners of Jesus before Lazarus’s tomb: “He looked up to heaven… that’s prayer. Then he looked at the tomb and he decreed, ‘Lazarus, come forth.’”
One angelic strategy involved reciting the Lord’s Prayer over the nation: “‘Your kingdom come, your will be done in the United States of America as it is in heaven.’”
Now, Thompson is calling believers to action: “Pull down false witness, hatred, and murder. Pray for President Trump. Pray for the body of Christ. Pray for yourself… and keep speaking your faith into the atmosphere.”
As world leaders converge for the Pope’s funeral, this moment in history calls for bold, unwavering intercession. Believers are urged to lift up President Trump and all global decision-makers in prayer, recognizing the spiritual battles waged behind the scenes. In a time of shifting powers and global uncertainty, the church must rise with authority—declaring God’s will over nations and covering those in leadership with wisdom, protection and divine guidance. Now more than ever, the prayers of the righteous are vital to shaping the future.
