Economic turmoil is gripping the world, and according to Pastor Mark Henry, this is no accident. In a recent interview with Prophecy Watchers, Henry laid out a biblical perspective on inflation and how God is using it to shape the end times.
“Everyone that goes to the store is shocked,” Henry remarked. “The other day, my wife sent me to pick up some eggs, and I was shocked. I mean, they’re like $29 now for 60 eggs. It’s like they must be gold-plated or something now.”
Henry points to a broader, more intentional agenda behind rising prices.
“We have talked a lot about that—how we’ve printed money and that creates inflation, and how the globalists have worked with great intention to bankrupt the country so they can move to a global currency,” he explained. “Now, praise God, President Trump is putting a lot of brakes on that, but it’s not the end yet.”

A Divine Window of Opportunity
While many are worried about financial collapse, Henry believes this is a time of divine grace. “God’s given us this measure of space,” he said. “He’s given us an opportunity, and the question is: how do we seize this opportunity?”
He encourages believers to follow biblical principles of financial stewardship. “What does Proverbs tell us? It says that a wise person makes a plan. ‘The plans of the diligent lead surely to an advantage, but everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.’ That’s a principle in the Bible that transcends all dispensations.”
/**/Henry urges Christians to take this grace period seriously.
“The Bible gives a lot of instruction. When people were asking, ‘What do I do with my finances?’ a lot of times I would just sit there and go, ‘You’re such a mess, you’re just going to have to hold on and pray for extra grace to make it through this collapse.’ But now, God has given us possibly four years or possibly eight years of a measure of grace.”
Preparing for What’s Ahead
Henry sees parallels between today’s economic challenges and biblical history.
“I think Joseph had that same experience,” he noted. “Remember, there was a prophetic word given to Pharaoh—there’s going to be seven years of plenty and then seven years of famine. We know from the book of Revelation what’s going to happen during the times of the Antichrist—it’s going to be devastating.”
While the future remains uncertain, Henry stresses the need for preparation. “Some people will say this is not acting by faith—that you shouldn’t prepare for the future. But God has told us that lazy people will be poor, that those who don’t have a plan will be poor.”
His advice is simple: “Understand financially where you’re at. Get out of debt. Start gathering assets. The biggest thing is realizing where we are and making sure we don’t waste this time when we should be using it to prepare.”
For Henry, inflation is more than an economic crisis—it is a spiritual test.
“God has given us a measure of grace. The question is, how do we position ourselves, take care of our families and remain faithful until Jesus comes?”
