On July 1, 2020, professional violinist Maurice Sklar saw visions of America’s future. He saw, in the next five months, up to the 2020 presidential election, there is a coordinated planned, very deliberate step by step takeover of the United States and an all-out attempt to overthrow the government and stop America as we know it. This unrest has just begun.
Maurice saw a return or resurgence of the virus with ambulances and hospitals being filled. He saw the virus was part of a man-made coordinated attack. It will be an all-out effort to take America down before the next great awakening. It will shake America to the very core. He also saw foreign troops inside the United States.
These things are already set in motion and have been planned for a long time. If God does not put up a standard, we will see catastrophic sudden change in America. Maurice saw foreign troops, including the blue helmets of the United Nations, but also foreign militias. He warns, “If we don’t have a miracle, a civil war could break out and this could happen before the election. We must pray for this standard to be raised up.”
Earlier this year, soon after the COVID quarantines started, Maurice heard the Lord say, “America shall humble themselves before Me and then she will experience the third great awakening.”

Can we turn all this back through prayer? Other prophets are sounding like judgement is set for our nation. If we are at the time of the end shouldn’t our prayers be focused on souls for the kingdom? I’m just asking because sometimes I get confused. God always wants us to intercede for his will. Some people are saying they were told not to pray for our nation. Just thinking in terms of places like Sodom and Gomorrah and Egypt. There was a set time to judge and God was long suffering but he didn’t hold back judgement but rescued his people out of the places being judged. I would appreciate anyone’s thoughts on this matter. It has been on my mind lately.
Great question Lydia. I think words like this often get polluted by combining the specific points revealed by God with personal opinions that cause confusion. I shared this because he saw many of the same specific events that others have seen, including a time of great trouble ahead, a return of the virus, foreign troops inside the US, civil war, and a secret plan to take down our nation. Personally, I discard the rest and rely on the leading of the Holy Spirit to help me know how to pray.
I don’t see any confusion here, even in your own submission it is clear.
The nation as whole being judged is different from individuals being saved from eternal destruction. God’s will is that no one should perish eternally, so we must continue pray for the salvation of the people. However, all nations and kingdoms that forget God are doom for destruction. Psalm 9:17
So true.
Lydia, typically I stay out of discussions here because I know I am called to PRAY for intercession. However, over the past few days, the warnings (or “modern-day prophecies”) on this site, and a couple others I read have been “different” – more along the lines of what I’ve been shown. In reading the great “clarity” of the various written words, I’ve felt called to speak out more now also. As such, I write this to you, and ask you to pray for understanding and discernment. You started with, “Can we turn all this back with prayer?” I ask you, are we not CALLED to do this??? So, consider who would want us NOT TO PRAY??? There IS INDEED one who would want us not to do so. Is this one not the “liar and the thief”? Is he not also called the “author of confusion”? You mentioned about sometimes getting “confused”, and mentioned that some say “not to pray”, because “judgment is set”. Is this not a perfect example of such “confusion” by this one?? Consider Paul’s words to the Thessalonians about “God sends a STRONG DELUSION that many will believe a LIE.” Pray about why God does this??? Could this be DUE TO OUR lack of repentance and lack of faith?? Jesus said that “We REAP what we SOW.” I could continue on much more, but will leave you instead with some reading – leading you to “water”. First, read 1 Kings 22, about King Jehoshaphat and the true prophet Micaiah – consider the implications of what was said about all the other “prophets” who prophesied. Secondly, read Jonah 4, and consider what Jonah says, and what God tells him at the end. What does it mean that the Ninevites did not “know their right from their left”?… Read more »
Thanks for your input. I especially like the scripture references. You should respond more to post. I do recognize Satan causing the confusion.. I think there are too many prophetic voices speaking too many confusing things. I certainly wouldn’t want to be like Jonah. I pray God always gives me a merciful and compassionate heart and also a boldness that I will speak truth no matter the consequences.
Indeed didn’t Jesus’s first comment in Matthew 24 say, “Do not be deceived, for many will come in my name, saying ‘I am the Christ’ and deceive many”? Many false prophets and teachers end up in hell. Heaven visit .com has a multitude of witnesses of what hades is like, many “christians’ are there.

This is refreshing! Tim is right…. the sites are being flooded with the enemies will and people are actually prophesying without knowing or meaning to instead of prophesying and praying Gods will (that none would perish, that all who will turn do turn by grace). Do not ever stop praying people of God. You are on this earth to do so. The enemy is using many to spread hopelessness. Yes judgement is coming. It is written but it’s not the focal point. Grace and salvation is always Gods focal point even in judgement His grace is greater. Love and Grace are His nature. He is fierce and serious against the spiritual enemies of His people. He is loving in discipline. we need to be as Moses was calling for grace in the face of the people’s iniquity and sin. We need Gods heart and to really know His ways and how to pray. I’m asking Him “teach me to pray Your will”. Im not advocating hyper grace; holiness is the only way. But a remnant of Holy ones will prosper in the face of adversity. There are too many examples in the Bible of this to overlook it
There will always be Hope in that. I used to be like Jonah and God lovingly corrected me. Jesus stepped in on that cross as the protection and is interceding constantly so God can administer a greater grace than what was under the law. Jesus paid for a permanent Goshen. Not many choose to go there but there is a remnant and they will have hope in all that comes.
Thank you, Kristin; but it is not “me”, for I am but a servant.
Continue to seek His will, and ask for His discernment on these things.
At the end, you wrote something very profound – I understand it the same way, but also know that few do so.
You said: “Jesus paid for a permanent Goshen. Not many CHOOSE to go there,…..” This is precisely what I understand, “WE MAKE this choice.” My advice to you, ask Him WHY this is the case.
Know that things ARE changing rapidly, and continue to pray for His intercession, mercy and grace. Nineveh did not know their right from their left – is it any different now??
I pray for you, Kristin, and I pray for all.
A brother.
I have had this same question. How do we pray against something when at the same time it says that everything will come to pass and that God knew the end from the beginning. I have no trouble praying for my region, family, etc. but to turn back the nation???? What will it take for people to wake up to what is going on? Does it require some form of discomfort? Does it require a prolonged period of trouble? I feel more like Jeremiah telling people repent and people just think everything will go back to normal. It feels sooooo much like when Jesus said, those who have eyes to see and those who have ears to hear….
Maybe I am wrong, but the only thing I can figure to do right now is pray in the spirit. I’ll just have to leave my mind out of it right now.
Josh,
Excellent comment, and regarding the last part, no, I don’t think you are wrong. Yes, we MUST pray in the spirit, and leave “this world” behind – as Jesus said, “I am not of this world”. I ask you, are we not CALLED to FOLLOW HIM??? You understood this same thing through needing to leave your “mind out of it right now”.
Continue to “search out this matter” with all your heart, soul and mind. I’ll lead you to one scripture to help on your “search”. Pray for discernment and understanding, for it is far deeper than what men teach.
Proverbs 9:10 –
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
My brother, Josh, I pray for you; and I pray for all,
Hi Lydia – I have heard from different Watchpeople I follow that judgment has been set for the U.S. Since the majority of my loved ones are in the U.S., I pray that God’s Will, whatever that may be, be done. I also pray that the perpetrators of evil and harm to innocent people have their efforts greatly hindered or ideally, completely stopped.. Then I pray Psalm 91 over all my loved ones & their loved ones.
Thanks Expat Gal. Do your loved ones have a plan of escape if things go bad here?
Hi Lydia – As my brother is remarried, leaving for him is impossible as he & his wife share custody of the children with their exes, all of which are required to live very geographically close. It did not escape my notice that people that have children & divorce have a very difficult time relocating until the children are 18 years or the parent may be forced to give up custody rights. ?. What a difficult situation this creates if you are told by God to leave to a new area.
My closest friends have too many ties in the U.S. so leaving is just not feasible & they are at different levels of accepting the reality of where the nation is & where it is headed. Sadly some still probably think I have an “active imagination”, even Christian friends because so many Church-goers in the U.S. NEVER hear about End Times. ??.
I want to get my mom out but a friend here in South America is trying to get her uncle out of the U.S. with no success. Even though our borders are technically closed, if her uncle & my mom could get out of Miami (there is a problem here that remains unclear, possibly due to the massive outbreaks in covid-19, no permission is being granted), Sadly, our adopted country would let them in as we are both legal residents. My mom will not be able to withstand much conflict but she refuses to see the “signs on the wall”, though she has admitted my warnings over the past 5 years “make much more sense” and “seem much more possible” now than ever before in her lifetime. ?.
? Prayers for your family
Hi Expat – I too have rellies in the US and Ive told them and anyone else to leave now. Better to leave now with a container than later with the shirt on your back.
I would love to leave the US, but how do you do that if you don’t have relatives in another country or have a job there or own property there? Just wondering how others manage to emigrate to other countries if you have no family or connections or support there? Does anyone have any advice or input about this? Thanks
An event by itself cannot be avoided once things are set in motion, but the intensity of the event can be reduced through prayers. It all comes back to the Karmic cycle at the individual as well as nation level.
Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
Hi Lydia , I too question asked myself that same question. But truth is when I asked God about praying for our nation , His response was ” No more time , & Time has ran out! Meaning the END is here . Things will get worse, because AMERICA has NOT REPENTED… gay rights , same sex marriages, Abortions , sexuality at its worse ….No RESPECT TO GODS LAWS!! And on top of that The Anti christ is already here ( was shown by God ) ,he was the President before Trump . and if you noticed hes back on the scene ..The only thing we are to do is continue to pray for our love ones & hope we all make the RAPTURE . I hope this helps …God bless Lydia
Isaiah 59:19 says, “when the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against him.”. Thanks be to God who keeps His promises. Let’s pray this scripture and watch what happens!
On April 1,2020. I woke up in the morning to go to work. Thank you Lord I am still working. Anyway as I woke up there was an old high school day’s song (early 80’s) humming in my mind, as soon as I rose from my bed, I then made my coffee and off to work. On my drive, the song began hmmm in my mind again. I said, Lord why is this song on my mind, I felt the Lord impress on me. “What is the name of the song.” The name of the song is Cruel Summer.
Maurice is well known and his warning is to be taken dead serious
I had a dream earlier this year. I was in a jeep, a military style jeep on the passenger side. President Trump was on my right. I am not sure if he was driving or if we were being driven by someone else. To the right of the jeep was a huge open field. Someone was standing in the distance in the field, prophesying in a loud voice. I could not hear the words of the prophecy, but recognized it was indeed ffom God. I knew this by the authority and tone of the voice. Suddenly, the voice became very dim and weak, almost nonexistent. In my dream, I was immediately alarmed. I knew this was not good. I cried out loud twice in a loud voice, Lord, have mercy!” I then looked over at President Trump. He never looked at me nor interacted with me. He was looking straight ahead. I noted in the dream, however, that he did not stop me from praying. End of dream.
This is only one of 2, possibly 3, prophetic dreams I have had. It has stayed on my mind to post it here. I thought maybe someone would have insight. I did not wake up with an emotional reaction to the dream. The dream seems to indicate war and silencing of Christians. It also seems to mean Pres.Trump will not be the silencer and that he may or may not be in control.
That’s so interesting. I had a huge burden to pray for Steve Mnuchin, the Treasury Secretary today, as well as for Donald Trump. It came on very intensely. Hours after I prayed, I came under a terrible spiritual attack, and started to feel like I was almost dying. I have been under the weather for three days, and suddenly I was literally fading away. Please pray for me, as I believe I entered into spiritual warfare without armoring up. I still feel super weak. I repented, but I believe those two men need intercessory for reasons I can’t comprehend. Thank you so much. God bless.
This is a very interesting vision. I’ve understood the “concept of the standard” (for lack of better words) for a while, but have NEVER seen a modern-day prophecy with this clearly spoken. Mr. Sklar understood the following:
“These things are ALREADY SET IN MOTION and have been planned for a long time. IF God DOES NOT PUT UP A STANDARD, we will see catastrophic sudden change in America. Maurice saw foreign troops, including the blue helmets of the United Nations, but also foreign militias. He warns, “If we DON’T HAVE A MIRACLE, a civil war could break out and this could happen before the election. We MUST PRAY FOR THIS STANDARD TO BE RAISED UP.”
There is a lot here, so I will keep my comments short, and advise all to pray for understanding about these things. There are multiple verses in the Old Testament about “the standard” (or “banner” or “ensign”). Pray for enlightenment on this, and more importantly, as Mr. Sklar said, pray that “this standard be raised up”.
One last thing – read the very last chapter of the Bible, Revelation 22, for this “standard” is described within. Pray about what John did wrong, and why it is wrong – it is significant.
I pray for all,
A brother.
This is interesting. I believe that The LORD is calling us to be “standard-bearers” for our respective areas through intercession.
I believe this is a call to prayer…..he has specified Isaiah 59. I’ve been asking the Lord how to pray because He has been giving me a constant sign of emergency prayer intercession by showing me 911 constantly in daily life. We need to open our mouths and decree and declare God lift up a standard against the flood of enemy plans. We need to pray Gods word and put it in the atmosphere with our mouths. “So [as the result of the Messiah’s intervention] they shall [reverently] fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives].” Isaiah 59 ampc Here’s the thing…… we can get so focused on judgement and hold on to your seat and fear very easily with all of these dreams and visions. It is important to take them in and know that Our Father will be supernaturally prospering and saving those who reside under His wings and who are obedient. We also need to discern timing and the intention God was trying to show with a dream/vision. I believe we must be careful to not become reactive, but wise in the Spirit. I believe there is a 3 year period for revival coming, that yes judgement is sealed on ALL the world but we must believe there is a Goshen. Supernaturally Jesus will come upon a remnant and appear to raise the standard. We must OPEN our mouths and begin declaring and prophesying Gods will of salvation to any who will come. This is the… Read more »
Oh when the saints go marching in oh when the saints go marching in oh lord I want to be in that number oh when the saints go marching in, for those remnant who are still inside your service to Christ and God will be greatly honoured
Read Chuck Youngbrandts prophecies about Russian/Chinese military in USA. It seems meant for this period.. Don’t read his prophecies where someone has added dates. Chuck never put dates to prophecies.
So something that has been on my mind lately is when these invasions happen, are we allowed to use our guns in self defense? I’ve seen places online where God is telling people to put guns down and that the “last moment on earth do I want to find that you killed someone” is this biblical?
Hi Jenson: prayer and fasting are more powerful than any man-made weapon! See 2 Corinthians 10:4 and Ephesians 6:10-18. Also check out the documentary “Conscientious Objector” which is an inspiring documentary based on a true story of a Godly man who received a medal of honor for serving as a medic in a WWII without carrying a gun! God will lead you to do what is best for your family as you pray and seek divine revelation on this issue.
May God be with you.
>Raphael
God has no problems with using force if necessary for self defense as shown by the instructions Jesus gave to His disciples to buy swords.
“Thou shall not MURDER” . The government kills evildoers (at least it should rather than the innocent). Rick Joyner recently quoted Jesus recently with “its time to buy a sword”. If you don’t provide (protect) your family, you have denied the faith and are worse than an unbeliever.
Hi Marty,
I used to have weapons and felt like the Lord told me to sell them. Perhaphs a word like Rick Joyner’s is directed at a subset of Christians? The Bible says we are to grow up into him which is the head, Christ Jesus. I can’t picture Christ carying or firing a gun. If I am to grow up into Him than I’ll have to take it by faith that the Armies of heaven are here for me as well.
Anyway, food for thought. It seems like everyone wants to make things so black and white but maybe context is everything.
