Does the Bible show us the path America should turn to during this election season?
In his latest prophetic message, Jonathan Cahn unveiled a prophetic mystery of how the Clintons, Barack Obama and Donald Trump all match the descriptions and years of public service of different biblical characters.

In Cahnβs book, βThe Paradigm,β he noted how Bill Clinton fit into the role of King Ahab, as his wife, Hillary, fits the description of Ahabβs wife, Jezebel.
βAhab. He was a divided man, a compromised man. He knew of God, but he warred against the ways of God. He championed the worship of Baal, which meant child sacrifice and sexual immorality and the overturning of biblical absolutes and traditional values. So too, in America a culture war began. The term was coined at the same moment that a man rose to power. His name was Bill Clinton,β Cahn says.
Both Ahab and Bill Clinton served in public office for a total of 22 years.
In the Old Testament, we read how Jezebel was biggest proponent of Baal worship, which included the sacrificing of children. So too, Hillary Clinton has been known for her devotion to abortion.
βIn fact, Planned Parenthood named her [Hillary Clinton] the abortion champion of the century,β Cahn says.
Cahn also points out how Ahab and Jezebel were caught up in a scandal involving the vineyard of a man named Naboth. Likewise, the Clintons have been thoroughly involved in scandals over time, with the Monica Lewinsky scandal being the biggest one of all. Just as Ahab fell at the hands of the tribe of Levi, Cahn points out that βLewinskyβ comes from the word βLevi.β
Not only does the Clinton duo parallel Ahab and Jezebel, but Barack Obama also has striking similarities to Joram.
βJoram followed in the ways and policies of Ahab and Jezebel. So, Obama would follow in the agenda begun by the Clintons. The reign of Joram would be known for hostility to God and to His people. The rule of Barack Obama would also be known for its hostility to God, to biblical values and to religious conservatives,β Cahn says.
However, just as Jehu would rise up and destroy the Baal worship in Israel, so too Trump rose up in 2016 and has fought repeatedly against the abortion stance that the Clintons hold as their idol.

ββ¦it also speaks of Jehu as a soldier. He was a captain, a commander, a general. Jehu was not a member of the royal house. He wasnβt a politician. He was a fighter. Jehu was a fighter. Donald Trump wasnβt a politician; heβs a fighter. He fights with everyone. Jehu was not a gentle man; he was a wild man. At times he seemed unpredictable, uncontrollable. Trump [is] the same way,β Cahn says.
Just as we donβt know everything about Jehuβs relationship with God, we also do not know everything about Trumpβs relationship with Him. However, God was able to use Jehu to accomplish good things, something that we can also see with Godβs use of Trump.
βItβs not about the person, itβs about God. Itβs about the purposes. Itβs about things like lifeβ¦itβs about the will of God,β Cahn says. βAmerica is hanging in the balance just as Israel hung in the balance in ancient times.β
Now, as we embark into a new political season, Cahn points out that it is up to us to choose light over darkness.
βAmerica has free will, as do its voters,β says Cahn. βWe all have free will. God has His will, His perfect will, His permissible or permissive will, and His redemptive will. We have a free will to pray or not to pray. To vote or not to vote.β
Christians can no longer say they donβt like or want to engage with politics. What our future looks like is dependent upon the actions that we do or do not take now. During this time, seek the Holy Spirit for His guidance in the middle of this political season.
