I See the Storm

|
| The Last Days of America. | |
| That's a shocking title for your book. | |
| Could you explain what this means, the vision you had about America and the church? | |
| Let me, can I start by just sharing the vision really quickly with you so that you have to understand. | |
| So I had this dream that I was preaching about America dying on the threshold of the church. | |
| I then, on the heels of that, have this open vision. | |
| I was sitting on my couch. | |
| I'm looking at my television set, and I see a storm. | |
| A newscaster comes on, and he's basically saying, we've got an emergency going on in the country. | |
| He said, there is an unprecedented storm. | |
| And they show a picture, and the storm looks like a hurricane. | |
| Now, I'm living in Louisiana. | |
| It's on the hills of Katrina. | |
| I'm very familiar with what a hurricane is. | |
| It looks like a hurricane. | |
| But what was interesting is it was a hurricane that stretched all the way from the northern border to the southern border. | |
| And it was moving right down the heart of America. | |
| It was coming all the way across America. | |
| It was going west to east, all the way across America. | |
| The eye was over the center of America, the heartbeat of America. | |
| And the reporter said, this is the most unusual storm. | |
| He said, because it looks like a hurricane, and most of the time this forms in the ocean will come upon land. | |
| He said, but this one has formed on land and is spreading from ocean to ocean. | |
| He said, we have a correspondent that's in the storm, in the eye of the storm, and you've seen hurricane reporters. | |
| And all of a sudden, the picture changes on the television. | |
| And there's a man who's standing there in rain gear, and he's being tossed about by the wind. | |
| He's got a microphone. | |
| He said, this is the most unusual storm I've ever seen. | |
| And there's stuff swirling around his head. | |
| And he reaches down and he picks up, and he has in his hand $100 bills. | |
| He says, this is a storm of money. | |
| About that time, I go back to the reporter, and he says, there has been another tragedy that's happening right now in America, another crisis. | |
| And all of a sudden, I see on my television, I'm trying to shorten this up. | |
| All this is in the book. | |
| I see on my television screen riots, fires burning in cities all across America, riots going on in America. | |
| I saw people holding signs. | |
| One of the signs that really stood out to me was a sign with big red letters that said, I want my entitlements. | |
| I never will forget that. | |
| And I mean, and you've got to think, I think this is live. | |
| I think this is really happening. | |
| So I'm terrified at the moment. | |
| I'm trying to think, what do I need to do to save my family? | |
| What do I need to do to save my church? | |
| How are we going to do ministry? | |
| All of this stuff is running through my mind. | |
| And I see people, I see a earthquake happen on the New Madrid fault line. | |
| And it runs down the center of America and it divides America from the north to the south. | |

|
| Somebody asked me, said, do you believe it was a literal physical earthquake? | |
| I said, no, I don't know that. | |
| But I said, I tell you what I felt. | |
| I felt like it was going to be a major division like North versus South racial divide. | |
| Now, my daughter-in-law is African-American, so my son is married to an African-American girl. | |
| That's a very serious deal to me. | |
| My grandson is mixed, so that's a big deal to me. | |
| And I said, whatever is going to happen with the races that's going to divide the nation is going to happen close to the New Madrid fault line. | |
| Wow. | |
| And I said, but it won't stop there. | |
| It's going to spread all across the nation. | |
| About that time, I heard a voice behind me in my ear that said, they divided my land. | |
| Now I will divide theirs. | |
| And I knew it was the voice of God. | |
| And like Ezekiel, the prophet was picked up and snatched up. | |
| All of a sudden, I was snatched up. | |
| Of course, it wasn't by the hair of my head. | |
| But I was snatched up somehow. | |
| It must have been by the nap of my neck. | |
| I was snatched up and immediately I was set down in this beautiful building in the Middle East. | |
| And I was like a fly on the wall sitting in this room and world leaders had gathered together and sitting at the head of the table was Putin, the Russian leader. | |
| And these leaders were gathered together and they were discussing the fall of America. | |
| Wow. | |
| Wow. | |
| And I sat there and listened to them discuss the fall of America. | |
| And the next thing I know, I hit my body like this. | |
| And when I looked at the television, the television, the news was back on the regular programming. | |
| I immediately knew that I had this visitation from the Lord. | |
| I stayed up all night. | |
| I wept. | |
| I cried. | |
| And then the Lord spoke to me and said, I'm going to give you an opportunity. | |
| And you're supposed to warn the nation. | |
| And I begged God. | |
| I said, God, please, please, I'm known as a preacher of hope. | |
| Please don't send me out to preach this message of the judgment of God upon America. | |
| Please don't do this. | |
| And the next morning, I got a phone call, and it was Jesse DePlanis. | |
| And he said, Shane, he said, you're not going to believe this, but I had a different guest scheduled. | |
| But he said, I'm going to be doing a show on a national network. | |
| And he said, God told me to have you. | |
| He's shown you something about America, and you're supposed to come to tell the nation. | |
| Praise God. | |
| I said, oh, God, please. | |
| Amen. | |
| And that's how all of this started. | |
| Wow. | |
| And so I believe all of the racial divide that we've seen. | |
| I believe the political divide that we've seen. | |
| Literally all of it happening along the Numadrid fault line. | |
| I know right now the economy is good. | |
| But the economy's in trouble. | |
| And I'm going to go on record of saying that. | |
| So in 2013, 14, when I shared this for the first time, everybody and their brothers started calling me a false prophet and demonizing me. | |
