In a recent broadcast, prophetic voice Amanda Grace explained why the resignation of former counterterrorism chief Joe Kent is not just another political headline, but part of what she believes is a much larger prophetic pattern unfolding before the nation.
As Grace opened the program, she made clear that she believed the moment was spiritually weighty, adding that the events now unfolding are happening in what she called a very intense “window of Purim and Passover.”
Joe Kent’s Resignation Raises Red Flags
At the center of Grace’s message was Kent’s resignation and the controversy surrounding it. She cited reports that the former National Counterterrorism Center director is under FBI investigation, while also noting Kent’s public stance on Iran.
According to Grace, “Joe Kent resigned with an open letter basically saying Iran does not pose an imminent threat to the United States of America. He cannot support the Iran war, and that Israel is forcing the United States of America to do this.”

She argued that the timing of this development is critical. “This resignation and public fallout comes in the window between Purim and Passover,” Grace said. “This is not a mistake that we are literally watching this happen in the window between Purim and Passover.”
A Genesis Connection to Iran
Grace then turned to Scripture, arguing that the crisis surrounding Iran has a prophetic parallel in Genesis 14. Referring to the king of Elam, which she connected to the region of Iran, Grace highlighted the phrase: “Twelve years they had served Chedorlaomer. But in the thirteenth year they rebelled.”
She tied that passage to modern events by pointing to the start of Obama-era Iran negotiations in 2013. “2013 is when Obama started negotiating the Iran deal,” Grace said. “Thirteen years later it put us at 2026 when the people of Iran uproar and rebelled.”
This was not random. “You tell me this is a coincidence,” she said. “Genesis, this book is written thousands and thousands and thousands of years ago, and it’s aligning with what is happening today.”
Revelation, America and a Call to Discernment
Grace also moved into Revelation 4, connecting the imagery of the lion, ox, man and eagle to present geopolitical players. She said these symbols are “aligning with this year” and with what is happening now in Israel, Iran and the United States.
Yet, her central warning was not merely political. It was spiritual.
“We need to understand that this is all connected and we need to get in the Word of God,” Grace said. “And we need to ask God to start showing it to us through His lens.”
She specifically urged believers not to avoid the book of Revelation. “Don’t be intimidated to open it,” she said. “Open it in this time.”
Ultimately, the answer to national turmoil is not panic, but prayer, discernment and a return to Scripture. What is happening now is more than a news cycle—it is a call for the church to wake up and watch.
