Without warning, this afternoon, I suddenly saw, in The Spirit, a forearm and hand, wearing a glove, and the hand closed into a fist!

Not my usual vision on a Wednesday afternoon!

As I watched, I had seemingly random thoughts running through my mind.

“Peace through strength” and “Iron fist in a velvet glove” were just two that stuck in my mind.

For some reason, my thoughts went to King Solomon and Jehu, both of whom obtained or maintained peace through strength. Then I thought of Pharaoh as an iron fist in a velvet glove.

An iron fist in a velvet glove, meaning a tough and unyielding attitude or approach concealed by apparent gentleness.

Peace through strength — a phrase that suggests that military power, can help preserve peace.

It has been used by many leaders from Roman times — emperor Hadrian was the first to use it according to Wikipedia.

Actually, it occurred to me that, peace through strength is best maintained by an iron fist in a velvet glove approach!

But as I thought this, The LORD stunned me with this — “TRUMP shall achieve that which he has always declared — Peace through Strength — and he shall maintain it by displaying an ‘iron fist in a velvet glove’ attitude!”

The LORD continued, “I AM giving him the wisdom of Solomon, the fierceness of Jehu, and the tenderness of a lamb!

But he is no lamb in the common sense of the word — much more in the sense of being gentle but firm.”

At this point, I also caught a picture of a lion cub — playful but with sharp teeth and claws!

Once more The LORD continued. “He shall establish My Kingdom more than any ‘king’ before him.

He will bring Godly Laws and Godly Principles to bear in a world badly lacking both.

I will establish Justice in line with My Justice, and he will prosper all that he touches.

Even so, his enemies will continue to try to destroy him and he must maintain great vigilance, surrounding himself with proven trustworthy people.”

As I digested this, The LORD then brought to mind a passage from Ezekiel that we heard this morning –

“Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the East Gate of The LORD’s house, which faces eastward; and there at the door of the gate were twenty-five men … princes of the people. And He said to me: “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity and give wicked counsel in this city, who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses; this city is the caldron, and we are the meat.’ Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man!” Then the Spirit of The LORD fell upon me, and said to me, “Speak! ‘Thus says The LORD:” Ezekiel 11:1-5a.

My Prophecy

These men who plot evil, who do evil, who encourage and stir up evil in the land shall fail in every attempt to bring down their government and their land.

I Declare that their plans shall explode in their faces before they reach the target they are sent to destroy.

No plan of theirs shall prosper!

I Prophesy and Call for angels to surround President Trump, and all his family and businesses, to guard and protect him at all times.

I Prophesy there is a Red Sea moment coming to them, as they chase the shadow of those they seek to harm — they shall be swallowed up by the very traps they lay for their prey.

I further prophesy that Donald Trump shall root out the evil that seeks to enslave the world, and he shall destroy it for the foreseeable future!

Amen! Good is the Word of The LORD!
