GET OFF THE FAINTING COUCH

It’s happened again! Another missing puzzle piece! I almost fell on the floor in amazement when I read Averine Pennington’s latest post called “TRUMP Overpowers the STRONGMAN – “This is My House, GET OUT!”. It almost feels like she and I are playing a game of supernatural volleyball where she serves up a juicy puzzle piece and I hit the ball right back with another delectable morsel.

Now at first glance, you might think her post is about President Trump. And on the surface, that is certainly true. But I believe there is a double meaning to the dream. I believe it is a coded message from God to the waiting remnant with instructions on how to protect themselves from the enemy.

Let’s start with the end of her dream, which is really the beginning. In her dream, she attended a Trump social event. While there, she spilled something on her clothes. So, she went to a laundry room to wash her clothes. While her clothes were drying in the dryer, she heard a loud banging noise. So, she opened the dryer, pulled out her BURGUNDY pants and found a small green OLIVE FORK in the pocket. That little fork was the culprit.

Here is the explanation. Averine represents the bride of Christ in the dream. Why? Well, she pulled out her BURGUNDY pants from the dryer. They were burgundy because the bride of Christ is covered in the blood of Jesus just as it is written in Proverbs 31:21 “She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.”

The item causing all the ruckus was a little green olive fork. Now an olive fork has one sole purpose in life – to stab and pierce olives. And olives in the bible represent the anointed children of God, specifically the prophets of God.

Notice how in Rev 11:11 the two witnesses are described as two olive trees. And when the man of God wanted to anoint Jehu king, he poured olive oil on his head. Samuel did the same thing when he poured a flask of olive oil over Saul.

So, the little green olive fork represents the enemy – satan and his minions – mercilessly attacking God’s anointed ones, stabbing them over and over, trying to take them out.

How do I know? Well, in my testimony Betrayed I wrote about a “fork”. Here is a snippet from that post dated 8/6/2021:

The Lord revealed three startling visions to me on the night of 3/30/2021.
Vision #1: I saw me getting punched in the face!
Vision #2: I saw a cutlery drawer open. Then I saw a utensil removed and the drawer shut.
Vision #3: I heard the Holy Spirit say the words “FROM TWO SPOONS”. Immediately after this, I saw a FORK coming at my face in a threatening manner. End of visions.
Whoa!!!

My favorite part of her post was her comment about the olive fork: “for such a tiny thing, you certainly do make a lot of noise”. I burst out laughing because she is so right. The enemy certainly does make a lot of noise. But a Christian, who knows her authority in Christ, knows exactly how to deal with that little noisemaker.

Now let’s go back to the beginning of her dream. Averine said that she was attending a social event at the lavish Trump mansion hosted by Melania and Donald. While Melania reclined on the couch, Donald circulated among the guests. Now here is the interesting part:

As I observed the people who came and went from the circle around Trump, sometimes their conversations became ‘heated’. Often, at least two or three times, I saw Trump get angry and he would pick some guy up by the collar and physically man-handle him to the door and shove him out of his house. In one instance, a very large, muscular, strong man engaged in an argument with Trump. He attempted to physically assault Trump and there was quite a tussle as the STRONGMAN was really powerful, think – the HULK. By some miraculous happenstance, TRUMP was able to overpower the STRONGMAN! The crowd watched in awe as Trump was victorious in the fight. President Trump then with all his might pushed, pulled and shoved the strongman to the door. I heard him say as he reached the threshold and gave one last push, “This is my house, GET OUT!”

My interpretation is that Donald and Melania represent two different types of Christians – the “Donald” type and the “Melania” type.

The “Donald” type understands that there is a spiritual war going on and he knows his authority in Christ Jesus. He understands that he has been given power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over ALL the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt him. He knows he has authority from God to BIND the bad and LOOSE the good. So, when the enemy attacks him or those in his household, he fights back using spiritual warfare.

When Averine wrote “By some miraculous happenstance, Trump was able to overpower the Strongman”, that miraculous happenstance was the “Donald” using his authority from God to bind the enemy. And not just any enemy, but a STRONGMAN.

The term “strongmen” refers to the generals in satan’s army of demons according to a post by Bella Orsi called Spiritual Warfare: DEMONIC STRONGMEN. It is written that “no man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house”. That means in order to overpower the enemy, you need to first take down the generals, that is, BIND the STRONGMEN first. Then satan’s minions will scatter and flee.

Now let’s turn to the “Melania” Christian. Notice how she was reclining on the couch with her hand on her brow in obvious distress as Averine left the party. Now that made me giggle because it reminded me of a vision of “FAINTING COUCHES” that the Lord gave me on 2/20/2020, which I wrote about in my post, Pestilence. Apparently Victorian women were prone to fainting spells and would frequently go to their fainting couches during the day to recover from feeling sick.

So why was the “Melania” type Christian so distressed? Because while she is very aware that a spiritual war has erupted all around her, she has no idea what to do about it. Those dark topics of witchcraft and demonic forces are just too uncomfortable to even consider. She thinks that maybe if she ignores them altogether, they will just go away.

She doesn’t realize that Christ did not leave her defenseless, but that He gave her ALL POWER OVER THE ENEMY. She doesn’t realize that God gave her spiritual weapons of binding, loosing, casting down, etc. for a reason – He expects her to use them (Judges 3:1-2).

And He wants her to get off her fainting couch, stand up, and say to the enemy, “You cannot mess with me and my loved ones anymore! I have authority over ALL power of the enemy. Greater is HE who is in me than he who is in the world! I BIND all forces of evil coming against me and my loved ones in JESUS NAME. I CAST DOWN to the ground all witchcraft and lies coming against me and mine now in JESUS NAME! I COMMAND the darkness back in the NAME of JESUS. THIS IS MY HOUSE, GET OUT!!!”

I don’t know about you, but I am thoroughly enjoying this little game of supernatural volleyball with Averine. Whatever will she serve up next?

2 CORINTHIANS 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh:4(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) 5CASTING DOWN arguments, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6And having a readiness to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

EPHESIANS 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in heavenly places. 13Therefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girded about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thus with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
