You're My Only Hope

Sunday, November 02, 2008, 1:00 p.m. –

The Lord gave me A VISION: I heard “John McCain” and then “Manchurian Candidate.” Following that I saw Lindsay Graham followed by Barack Obama. Then I saw a black bat with its wings spread wide. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat) I went back and forth several times between Obama and Graham and then I heard a song that Mandy Moore sang in “A Walk to Remember,” called “Only Hope.”

Listen to the song here: http://club.brightpod.com/kickapps/_Only-Hope-Mandy-Moore/audio/120007/27587.html

"Only Hope" / Written by Switchfoot

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now you're my only hope

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope

I give You my destiny
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope

Yes, Jesus! You are my (our) ONLY hope!

The vision continued with Lindsay Graham followed by Karl Rove. I Googled Karl Rove and it immediately yielded several links titled, “Karl Rove, Puppet Master.” The articles basically state that Karl Rove was George Bush’s “puppet master.” They called him “Bush’s brain.”

From Wikipedia: “Former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean, who was implicated in the Watergate break-in and became the star witness for the prosecution, has been quoted as saying that ‘Based on my review of the files, it appears the Watergate prosecutors were interested in Rove's activities in 1972, but because they had bigger fish to fry they did not aggressively investigate him.’”

Karl Rove Indicted on Charges of Perjury, Lying to Investigators

Saturday 13 May 2006

Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald spent more than half a day Friday at the offices of Patton Boggs, the law firm representing Karl Rove.

During the course of that meeting, Fitzgerald served attorneys for former Deputy White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove with an indictment charging the embattled White House official with perjury and lying to investigators related to his role in the CIA leak case, and instructed one of the attorneys to tell Rove that he has 24 business hours to get his affairs in order, high level sources with direct knowledge of the meeting said Saturday morning… http://www.truthout.org/article/karl-rove-indicted-charges-perjury-lying-investigators


I didn’t know about Rove’s connection with Watergate, but this vision had a “Watergate” feel to it. I did remember that Rove was indicted on charges of perjury and lying to investigators under oath, which is what I was researching.

Ok, the vision continues with a list of names and I feel like I’m sitting in a courtroom and these people are all giving some kind of testimony:

Cindy McCain
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Karl Rove

Then, this song came into my head: I Need You To Love Me / Barlow Girl

Why? Why are you still here with me?
Didn’t you see what I’ve done?
In my shame I want to run,
And hide myself.
Yeah, but it’s here I see the truth,
I don’t deserve you.

I, I have wasted so much time
Pushing you away from me.
I just never saw how you
Could cherish me.

Cause you’re a God who has all things,
And still you want me.

Your love makes me forget what I have been.
Your love makes me see who I really am.
Your love makes me forget what I have been, oh-oh.

And I need you to love me,
And I, I won’t keep my heart from you this time.
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me

The vision ended with Joe Lieberman and Richard Nixon and a suggestion or insinuation to some connection to a “Watergate” type of situation. END

Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.

www.excite.com Daily Bible Verse - Matthew 7:20-21 (NIV):
Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

My Understanding: Though I don’t understand all that the Lord has been showing me lately, what I do understand is that he is showing me much corruption in our government and that we can only depend upon HIM to be our Savior and our ONLY hope in these trying times.

I also believe the Lord wants us to do our homework on these men and women and to pray for guidance and insight and discernment concerning these people who ask us to trust them to lead us. This scripture above fits so perfectly. The Lord wants us to check out their fruit and to see if they really are who they say they are.

There is so much crooked stuff going on behind the scenes in our government that it is overwhelming at times. We certainly can not put our trust in man, but only in God.

I see here that the Lord is showing some kind of Watergate-type scandal most likely in connection with this present election. The first time I ever voted in an election when I was 22 years old was in 1972 and I voted for Richard Nixon and then shortly after he was reelected to his second term of office, the Watergate scandal broke wide open which eventually led to him resigning from office in 1974, I believe.

I get the sense that the players in this vision are all involved in some way in something of a similar nature. It had the feeling of some kind of investigation and people giving testimony and lying and perjury under oath and scandal.

The two songs the Lord gave me remind us that it is God’s love we need, not these men. We need to lift our hands and pray to be only God’s and to know that he truly is our ONLY hope! We need to hear what God’s plans are for us, not the plans of these men. We need to give the Lord all of us. We need to recognize that we have wasted too much time pushing God away and that we don’t deserve him. We need to stop taking his grace for granted. We need to repent of our sin and to accept God’s forgiveness and his saving grace in our lives. We need to stop keeping our hearts from God; stop pretending that we deserve what we already have. We need his love.
