John Paul Jackson (Streams Ministries International http://www.streamsministries.com) released a prophetic word recently about a “perfect storm” of crises coming against our nation. I have always had respect for Jackson’s prophetic ministry and wanted to pass along some excerpts in which explains what he believes God has shown him is about to happen in America and the world over the next 10 years. There are interesting prophecies on natural disasters, the economy, abortion, Islam, etc. (The following information has NOT been edited or changed)

THE ECONOMY

JOHN PAUL: Well some of the things I saw was the issue of the corruption that would be taking place, and there’s way more corruption still going to happen, and will be exposed. There were some things regarding the bail-out program that was announced last Fall. Before it happened, the Lord showed me that that was going to be happening, and there would be even more bail-outs that would happen. There would programs that would be implemented that would be more injurious to our economic structure than had previously been thought, but there would be a surprise element in them, and they would not help our economy at all. In fact, it would be very destructive to the economy. The Lord began to talk to me about this man who would be elected, who would be a savior. He would see himself as a savior, a liberator of some type, and that in that, he would then seek forth to put in programs that would be, again, injuriously, injurious to the economic structure of the United States. And those programs would be designed to help the people he was trying to liberate, and that would not be a good thing.

THE YEARS 2010 – 2012

JOHN PAUL: I saw the year 2010 was going to be very difficult, especially as you get further into 2010. I saw the year, I kept hearing an angel saying in a deep loud voice, “The woes of 2012. The woes of 2012. The woes of 2012.” I don’t know what those woes are, Sid. The angel did not tell me about those woes. But there was more emphasis on those woes than almost anything else that I was given.

GEOPHYSICAL EVENTS

JOHN PAUL: Some of the things I saw that were going to be coming or were quite shaking. And one of them was the issue of drought and the issue of water becoming very, very expensive, and at some point in the future, there will be cities that water from tap, right from your kitchen faucet will be more expensive than oil is. So it’s not like talking about going to the store and buying a gallon of water. We’re talking about water that’s normally fairly inexpensive becoming very expensive. In fact, some of the things that I saw was there would be various cities in the United States that would have to evacuate thousands of people because there wasn’t enough water in the reservoirs and in the aquifers that they get the water from, to get water to all the people.

FOOD SHORTAGES

JOHN PAUL: I saw a blight coming to hybrid seeds, and that would bring a type of famine to the United States. So the hybrid seeds that have been propagated by various large, huge corporations, supposedly resistant to all kinds of things, there’s something in the DNA structure of how they propagated everything, and it will actually allow for a blight to come. Some of the seeds won’t break the ground. Some of the seeds will break the ground but never bear fruit, and so you’ll end up seeing maybe green out in the fields. There will be enough rain for them in certain areas, but they won’t come to seed. So there won’t be the corn that will be normally in the ear. There won’t be the wheat that is normally in the head of wheat. So that creates a major food shortage.

CRIME

JOHN PAUL: Well crime, I saw crime increasing for several reasons. One, economically
because there’s so many people unemployed. We’re at double-digit unemployment. And I’ve been talking about as high as over 12 percent unemployment before it’s all said and done. And that was way before, you know, at that time it was 4.5 percent, I believe, when I started talking about. But I also saw unemployment because of the economic decisions that are going to be made. I also saw the food shortages further harming the unemployed because food will be so expensive they couldn’t afford to get it. And so then, you end up seeing people actually robbing food trucks that would carry food to grocery stores. And when they would come and there would have to be armed guards riding the food trucks in order to keep the food truck waylaid or hijacked.

CHINA AND ISLAM

JOHN PAUL: Yeah. One of the plans of the enemy--There’s going to be fear because of just God saying, “I’m God, you’re not,” and one of return of the fear of God to the church, first and foremost, and then to the nation. But one of the plans of the enemies is going to try to capitalize on that fear. So you have enemies of the United States that are going to be doing issues. Both China as well as the Islamic community are doing things to the United States. They’re going to begin to generate fear. And so they’re going to be doing things with the school systems. They’re going to be doing things with malls, shopping malls. There will be explosions in shopping malls that will make people afraid to go to high-traffic areas like malls would be. I saw a lot of malls closing down, and interestingly enough, because of the storms that happen in some of the cities, the malls were actually used as housing for the people who didn’t have homes.

POPULATION SHIFTS/MIGRATION

JOHN PAUL: I did. I saw a migration of people out of big cities because of the fear that was there. There was fear of what would happen in the school systems. There was fear of what was going to be happening in just high-traffic volume areas. Various bombs will go off and people would be killed, and so people were afraid to be going, almost like suicide bombers in Israel, when they had suicide bombers on the buses and things, which, by the way, is going to be increasing. But it’s going to be happening here in America, not just suicide bombers, but actually bombs that would be left in various places that would detonate at a certain time. People are going to be moving to rural areas in order to keep their children safe from the urbanization and fear. There was a couple of cities where people in various inner city areas would actually try to dig up the pavement. They would get unused back hoes and use that to try to pull the asphalt streets up, and try to then plant seeds in the dirt underneath the asphalt streets.

ISLAM

JOHN PAUL: Well, the Islamic community is going to continue to make inroads into the
political arenas. They’ve got a multiplication project that is designed specifically on their part. It’s a hundred-year plan. At least that’s what the Lord showed me, a hundred-year plan that they have that, and I’m not saying that it’s going to be a hundred years before the Lord comes back. It’s their hundred-year plan. So, but they’re hundred-year plan is basically to have a president in the office, a President of the United States in office by 2024, that their plan is to have, before that date, to have mayors of cites, governors of states, elected and in place before then, to have congressmen and senators in place before then, and then after that, to have judge, more than one judge on the Supreme Court in order to change the laws and implement more of an Islamic law into the United States. Islamic prayer would be allowed and Christian prayer would not be allowed in American schools.

OBAMA ASSASINATION ATTEMPT

JOHN PAUL: I saw that there was going to be an attempt upon his (President Obama) life. I saw that it was going to be by the Islamic community, but make it look like it was racially motivated. And of course, we should pray that this not happen. But if it happens, there would be incredible race riots in the streets like we’ve never seen before in this nation, and it would be worse than Rwanda.
