As Jesus prepared His disciples for His departure, He said, “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.
Through decades of walking with the Lord, I have seen this passage play out in people’s lives over and over again. Although we may not see as clearly as Jesus did, the Holy Spirit still reveals to us what He has heard.
During the election of 2024, people often asked me who would win. I was perplexed, because I had in mind what should happen, but I didn’t have an assurance or a desire to publicly proclaim a definite outcome. That seemed to surprise some people, who said, “But you are a prophet—you know what will happen.”
The night before the election, I simply asked the Lord, “Can You show me anything past 2026?” Then I fell asleep.
On November 5, 2024, at 3:14 a.m., the Lord awakened me and said, “Hezekiah—extend time!” So I began to ponder Hezekiah’s life. I knew the good he did and the mistakes he made, but I was not sure what the Lord was getting at. At 4 a.m. I received a call from Israel. The caller said, “God is saying ‘Hezekiah’ to you.” That was more than a confirmation! I reread every biblical passage related to Hezekiah. When I reached Isaiah 37, the Lord illuminated the following verses:
This shall be the sign [of these things] to you [Hezekiah]: you are to eat this year what grows of itself, and in the second year that which springs from the same, and in the third year you are to sow and harvest, and plant vineyards and eat their fruit. The surviving remnant of the house of Judah will again take root downward and bear fruit upward. For out of Jerusalem will come a remnant and from Mount Zion a band of survivors. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
—Isaiah 37:30–32, AMP
I immediately stopped and said, “Lord, that is speaking of three years ahead.” The first year would be 2025, the second would be 2026, and the third would be 2027—when the remnant would take root and bear fruit. I jumped and began to rejoice. The Lord had taken me beyond 2026!

What God revealed was how the breaker anointing would take His people beyond 2026. The breaker anointing allows God’s people to operate on levels of power and authority that go far beyond answered prayer, as when Jesus spoke with divine authority to break the enemy’s power. Likewise, when someone is praying, facing obstacles, and it appears that nothing is happening, the breaker anointing takes that person past the clutter.
We are halfway through the era that began at the change of the Hebrew year in September 2019. Although we have seen much conflict, we still have a future. But what can we expect? I believe the next five-year spiritual battle for God’s covenant with America will be intense. We must commit to pursuing heaven’s throne, seeking to rule in alignment with God’s covenant and timeline. God will give us the grace we need to do this.
I urge you to anchor your faith in the prophetic picture from Hezekiah’s day. Call forth a three-year cycle of restoration so that farmland, resources and national stability may return. Declare that by the end of this cycle, the nation will regain its right order. Invite the angel of the Lord to strike the enemy’s strongholds. Assert victory and drive out unbelief, manipulation and corruption. Use your voice and spiritual authority to set the nation’s future into motion. Impart grace to others, ensuring that each believer remains standing. Strengthen one another to maintain these decrees, keeping hearts resolute and aligned with God’s unfolding purposes.
Allowing the Lord to Extend Us Into the Future Without Fear
I think the most common fear that people express is rooted in their confusion about the future. “What if?” they ask. “Could this happen?” they wonder. Some people see so many things manifesting in the world that they consider staying indoors and shielding themselves from chaos. They worry about provision in the days ahead, fear making a mistake and not being able to recover, and wonder if they will miss the path to their destiny. They ask, “Do I really have a future?”
These are valid questions and concerns. However, we must remember what the Lord said, “Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matt. 6:34, AMP). The dilemma we face is learning to see our future without letting fear cloud our vision or deter us from our destiny.
We are a Fierce and Rising Remnant
So what will happen to us, and where do we go from here? The Lord has already answered these questions from a big-picture perspective, both in the Old Testament and the New:
“They will be my people,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. “On the day when I act in judgment, they will be my own special treasure. I will spare them as a father spares an obedient child. Then you will again see the difference between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not.”
—Malachi 3:17–18, NLT
But it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called by his name! For the time has come for judgment, and it must begin with God’s household. And if judgment begins with us, what terrible fate awaits those who have never obeyed God’s Good News?
—1 Peter 4:16–17, NLT
As the apostle Peter wrote, “Praise God for the privilege of being called by his name!” even if we must suffer for belonging to Him. In every generation God raises a remnant—those who carry and communicate His prophetic will, ensuring that heaven’s purposes continue to break into and impact the earth realm. This remnant preserves His covenant. (See Acts 9:15.)
I believe Jesus birthed this remnant during His travail in Gethsemane. Since then, God has set apart people in every generation for His purpose—those who remain in the land, understand His will, and stay committed to their calling. They labor to accomplish what previous generations did not complete. Among them are prophets who declare what will last and be handed down to those who come after. In every age a faithful group endures calamity and remains called by the Lord. They are the anointed ones who escape judgment to spread the good news and bear witness of “Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7).
A remnant will always wage wars against the false witness, the accuser and the antichrist. When this remnant is no more, the final war will occur.
God assures both the body of Christ and the world that there is a future and a hope. By His Spirit I believe the Lord revealed that we will continue beyond 2026. He gave me a sense of certainty about that revelation, which means that He has much more in store.
So don’t waste time—step into your place in His plan!
