The Dream That Unveiled the Darkness
On July 12, 2022, Grace had a vivid prophetic dream. In it, she saw a massive, demonic, jackal-headed figure perched atop the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica—a dome that also symbolized the U.S. capitol. This terrifying figure represented bribery, greed, temptation and the blood of the innocent. The dream was a direct warning of a shift in leadership in both the United States and the Vatican. It revealed that the spiritual forces behind global corruption were being exposed and judged.
“…it had to do with the shedding of innocent blood, but it also had to do with the change of leadership,” Grace wrote in 2022. “That is set to occur both in the capitol and the Vatican.”
The Lightning Strikes: A Sign From Heaven
The next thing that happened was the unthinkable. Lightning struck the statue of Saint Peter in Buenos Aires on Dec. 17, 2023—the birthday of Pope Francis. The lightning blew the halo off Peter’s head and knocked the keys from his hand. This was not coincidence. It was a direct sign of the Pope’s loss of authority and heaven’s declaration of a spiritual shift. The halo and keys—symbols of divine authority—were removed, signaling God’s judgment on unfaithfulness to biblical truth.
Grace warned that Pope Francis had departed from holiness. The loss of the statue’s halo and keys pointed to a spiritual removal of covering and authority from the Pope himself. Just as Saul lost the kingdom, so too Francis faced the stripping away of spiritual power.
A Prophetic Collision: The Vatican, the WEF and a Global Changing of the Guard
Grace emphasized that this judgment isn’t isolated to the Vatican. A broader reckoning is coming. The Lord is targeting corrupt systems—governments, global organizations and leaders who have aligned with darkness. This is a season of sifting, where only what is rooted in holiness will remain. The lightning strikes serve as a prophetic signal: God is intervening suddenly and powerfully.
Grace began hearing the Lord speak to her specifically about the World Economic Forum, and the potential ties between France to both the Pope and the WEF. She heard: “I am God, there is no other… I am looking at France. I am looking at Macron.” What followed was a piercing prophecy of scandal, collapse, and the unraveling of socialist foundations. Emmanuel Macron was exposed as a front man for another power—one tied directly to the Vatican and the World Economic Forum.
Now that Klaus Schwab has stepped down from the WEF on the same day as Francis’ death, there is no doubt that what is taking place isn’t accidental; it is prophetic.
Amanda Grace’s prophetic insights reveal that we are living in a time of divine confrontation. The Vatican, the Pope, and global powers are being shaken as God begins a spiritual reordering. The dream, the lightning, and the unraveling of corrupt authority all confirm that heaven is moving. Believers must watch, pray and remain anchored in the Word because the days ahead will mark the rise of new leadership and the fall of the counterfeit.
