Have territorial spirits been unleashed upon America’s cities?
In a powerful prophetic word by Amanda Grace, a warning has gone forth about the rise of the Absalom spirit in America and its connection to figures like Elon Musk, President Trump and the ongoing unrest in cities like Los Angeles.
Referencing 2 Samuel 15, Grace draws striking parallels between Absalom’s rebellion against King David and the current political and spiritual climate. Absalom, in his quest for the throne, positioned himself as a voice for justice, strategically placed men before him, and orchestrated a coup from within the kingdom. “Absalom would say, ‘Oh that I were made judge in the land… then I would give him justice,’” Grace quotes, warning that this ancient playbook of rebellion is being repeated now.
Prophetically, this “clash for the kingdom” is said to be manifesting again, and notably, during the 50-day window between Passover and Pentecost—a time frame Grace calls “fiery.” Just as Absalom placed 50 men before him, a symbolic connection is drawn to the political and spiritual turbulence that emerged during this same season this year.

The prophetic word also suggests that hidden in the phrase “Absalom reigns” is the name “Elon Rams.” The idea is not linguistic coincidence but a spiritual code: Elon Musk, referred to as a modern-day “ram,” is said to be vying for dominance in a battle that parallels Absalom’s coup attempt. “The unaltered rams,” said Grace on Mar. 12, “have gotten into position to vie for dominance… and in the spring, the clash.”
While acknowledging that Elon Musk made sacrifices to support Trump, Grace asserts he is still “bound to an altar” that destabilizes his life, making him vulnerable to the same instability that plagued Absalom. Her prophetic message claims that Musk’s personal instability—his relationships and his public rifts—are part of a broader spiritual influence seeking to divide and conquer.
In a separate word dated June 8, 2024, the Lord warned Grace of the spiritual forces at play that would boil within the month of June. That word was given exactly one year before the National Guard was deployed to Los Angeles—an act seen as fulfillment of the prophecy.
She warns that the same demonic powers behind the unrest in California are preparing to move next in New York City. “California and New York are the bookends of the nation,” Grace explains, “and they’re connected in the realm of the spirit.”

The word Grace received on May 29, 2025, declares that a multi-headed beast is seeking to exalt itself in the “city of angels”—Los Angeles. Its heads will fall through scandal and exposure. “Their money laundering shall be exposed… Some wounds shall be so great, the heads shall be no more,” says Grace.
With June marked as a month of spiritual clash and judgment, Grace’s prophetic message calls believers to “gird up their loins” and prepare for battle—not in the flesh, but in the spirit, through prayer and intercession, to bring down the altar of pride and prevent the fall of a nation.
