THE SCHEMES OF THE ENEMY INVOLVING OUR PRESIDENT
Bob Jones
Sep 23, 1998
Important Note from Steve Shultz, Moderator:
PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
Below is an extremely important word. The first part of it will no doubt be received with enthusiasm as a correct word for this hour regarding Satan's strategy for the church, the U.S. and the world.
However, no doubt, the last part, About God's intentions toward President Clinton will be controversial at best. I am prompted to remind those on this list of an important principle.
God sent prophets in the old testament to tell his people what to do at important times in their history. There was judgement, not only for the sins of the people, but there was judgment when the people refused to listen to the prophets, but rather -stoned them (or agreed with those who did).. . . .
Neh 9:26 "But they were disobedient and rebelled against you; they put your law behind their backs. They killed your prophets, who had admonished them in order to turn them back to you; they committed awful blasphemies."
For those who can hear . . . God is sending a prophet who has been tested among us. This is what he is saying about our President. You can "kill the prophet" and suffer the consequences---or: you can (in some of our cases) go against your own "political leanings" and obey the prophet, and reap the benefits. Because God also said,
Matt 10:41 Anyone who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and anyone who receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward.
I will likely take a hit on this list and lose some subscribers because of this word. But, as I've told others, I would rather listen to a known prophetic voice and be wrong, than to just go by what my political opinion is, and perhaps suffer the consequences.

THE SCHEMES OF THE ENEMY INVOLVING OUR PRESIDENT - Bob Jones, Written by Keith Davis
This is a new Bob Jones word - 9/23/98 taken from: http://www.bobjones.org/Ungodly.htm
AN UNGODLY STREAM A vision given to Bob Jones written by Keith Davis ***********************************************
In a recent prophetic experience the Lord unveiled to Bob the schemes of the enemy involving our president and the cloud of controversy surrounding his leadership. Presently, there is a stream of perversity flooding this nation from its leadership fueled by the media. The open and un-restrained terminology inundating our media 24 hours a day has opened the door to Satan to release a flood gate of perverse thoughts and images permeating the minds of the saved and unsaved alike. Many people, including Christians, are finding themselves having dreams or unsanctified thoughts in their imaginations supported by the sexually explicit language that is giving access to Satan and his hordes of tormenting spirits.
Thankfully, the Christian has the word of God to use as a weapon against these perverse thoughts and images. However, the spiritual consequences for this nation and its youth are significant. The standards have been reduced to an all time low, removing the already diminished boundaries of decency within the media. We as a church must recognize this and its satanic sponsorship and begin to wage war through intercessory prayer. We must pray that divine restraints be released by the Holy Spirit through intercession lifting a standard against this evil flood-- when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him.
Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things.
The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things; and the God of peace shall be with you. Phil 4:8-9 (NAS)
We are given the admonition in Scripture to set our minds on those things that are good and pure. In so doing, we will be taking the first step in girding ourselves for this battle.
Secondly, we must pray for our president. Not only is this a Scriptural mandate but it is also the Lord's directive for this battle. Satan is desiring to prematurely bring to pass the economic shaking that imminently faces this nation. The impeachment or resignation of President Clinton would almost surely accommodate that end. President Clinton, even with all of his faults and failures, is the Lord's choice for this hour. We are given a second opportunity to be obedient to the Lord and pray for this man's salvation and divine deliverance. We must be willing to pray for the Lord's intervention to sustain him especially between now and November. The season of time between now and November is extremely crucial.
First of all, then, I urge that entreaties {and} prayers, petitions {and} thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in authority, in order that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.
This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Tim 2:1-4 (NAS)
Through this experience the Lord also told Bob to look at the Divine promises that were made in 1992 for those promises are now beginning to be fulfilled. One of the most difficult times is between the
release of a promise and its fulfillment. That season of time serves as a test of one's maturity, faith and obedience. The promises of six years ago have matured and will be released from heaven, for many.
