Jim Bakker Show - A Pivot Year - Larry Sparks Aired: 2020-05-05 Duration: 03:36 === Persecution Through Media Struggle (03:35) === [00:00:00] Oh, it just says, persecution through a media struggle on page 72 from Dave Wilkerson. [00:00:10] Let me just read a real short page. [00:00:12] But watch out. [00:00:13] Persecution and harassment are coming. [00:00:17] There is a sound of change in the air. [00:00:22] Christ-centered radio and TV programming will become the target of satanic forces determined to force them off the airways. [00:00:34] And that is what they plan to do. [00:00:36] Go to their websites, read what they said, read what they plan to do, read what their goals are. [00:00:44] And, you know, I'm going to ask Larry if you understand what this is. [00:00:51] And especially from Dave Wilkerson's telling us what was coming. [00:00:58] And here it is happening right now. [00:01:03] You know, it's very interesting because as I'm listening to this, I'm going through. [00:01:07] I see you guys have the prophetic words for 2020 book that you shared. [00:01:10] And I'm less interested in talking about books, but I'm interested in talking about blueprints that the Lord gives. [00:01:18] And I was going through each of these different prophetic words. [00:01:20] And there's like four or five in this book where I see that when we published this, nobody knew coronavirus was happening. [00:01:28] But I felt like the Lord really gave blueprints and strategies to his prophets. [00:01:34] I was even reading one here. [00:01:36] Emma Stark talks about how 2020 would be a pivot year. [00:01:39] And it doesn't say it in the book, but she basically said, we will recognize life before 2020 and life after 2020 in that this year is that significant. [00:01:51] And she says this, I got to read this because I think it's very powerful and it's encouraging. [00:01:54] We are entering one of the most strategic years of her entire lives. [00:01:58] She had no idea except what Holy Spirit was speaking to her. [00:02:01] Same Holy Spirit spoke to Dave Wilkerson. [00:02:04] We will need sobriety, focus, and alertness as this year will shape us for many years to come. [00:02:10] I feel the Holy Spirit as I read this. [00:02:12] This year will be recorded in history as a pivot year. [00:02:17] And again, we put this together in November. [00:02:22] So the Lord, that's my encouragement for those books that people, I encourage folks, find those books from David Wilkerson. [00:02:30] The reputable prophets, because these people heard and saw things before their time. [00:02:36] That is a true prophet who hears and sees things before the time of manifestation so that we could be prepared on how to navigate seasons of crisis, calamity, and difficulty like this. [00:02:49] Oh, my goodness. [00:02:50] And if I could just go on real quick with the same, okay, right after you just ended right there, the pivot year. [00:02:57] Okay, so then she goes on. [00:02:58] I'm just going to read this real quick, Jim. [00:03:00] This is amazing. [00:03:01] Then she goes on to say, now she's talking about this year, 2020. [00:03:06] God is talking us into something outrageous this year, and many will step into rules that they aren't yet comfortable with. [00:03:17] You will be stepping into new places that are not your norm. [00:03:22] You are stepping into a season that you are not comfortable with. [00:03:26] You will feel gloriously uncomfortable, but this uncomfortableness is a gift that will keep you moving.
