During my early morning prayer time on July 24 2016, the Father spoke the following words to me.
“There is a poisonous pollution being spewed across the churches of America. A false prophecy of hope, rooted in the trust of a man. I will expose this false Hananiah prophecy in the coming days! I will clear the air in My Churches with fresh revelation and fresh anointing. I am not the author of confusion! I have not sent these false prophets, who are not prophets, but mouthpieces for the wicked one!
Confusion, deception, and false revelation reeks from the mouth of these vipers and snakes. Their venomous poison has been designed to confuse My Church, to paralyze them between two opinions. Whom shall I serve and whom shall I believe? But I will settle the score and I will settle the issue. I will silence the prophets of Hananiah with great vindication to My Jeremiah’s, My Isaiah’s, and My Prophets of Truth!
I will clear the air says your God. I will remove the stench of the Prophetic Pollution that the prophets of Baal proclaim. This will be the showdown of My Word against the god of this world.
The prince of the air has confused many but I will reveal My Truth. I will reveal My Voice and those who know Me will respond and follow Me. My Sheep know My Voice, My Church knows My Ways, My Bride knows the time of Her departure. For it is when the fig tree bears her fruit, the time is nigh. Do not be dismayed by the prophesies of false peace and false hope. The tares will always grow among you. But you must abide in Me and My Words abide in you. That will be the difference between the wheat and tares of the last days. I know the difference says the Lord and I will reap, bundle, and store what is Mine!
But for the unprofitable servant, I will cast him out. For I will reward both the wicked and the righteous. Choose this day; to whom will you serve, and to whom will you listen!”
The Father then revealed to me the following prophetic teaching. The prophet Jeremiah was instructed by God to tell the King of Judah and the five kings of foreign nations that they would go into bondage to the King of Babylon. This was a very heavy and hard word to give and receive, but it was the word of the Lord. It was such an extreme word that the Father added some consequences if they did not obey His plan.
And it shall come to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand. (Jeremiah 27:8)
The Father then said in essence, “Don’t try to prophesy your way out of this judgment! I said what I said and I will do what I’m going to do!”
9 Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, “Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon”
10 For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish. (Jeremiah 27:9-10)
The Father warned them not to listen to anyone in their “spiritual barn” that spoke contrary to what He was saying to them through His prophet. False prophets will lie to us out of the very nature of self-preservation!
The prophetic parallel of Jeremiah 27 is taking place in our nation right now. We have a sure word of judgment coming to America, and really it’s already here. If you don’t believe me, just take a few moments at your computer and research how much blood has been shed in this nation and around the world, in this month alone. Honestly, the world has gone off the cliff of sanity, into the abyss of madness!
But because we are in a major election cycle, the prophets of false hope and false peace are sprouting up everywhere! We have entered the old worn-out mantra cycle that repeatedly says; “If we can just get the right person in office, things will change.”
Once again our major leaders of mega ministries are promising us that with enough prayer and of course enough financial support, God will see our efforts and once again bless us! Plus, everybody will live a long and happy glorious life (except for the 60 million aborted babies)! But the reality is judgment has been determined by the Courts of Heaven and no amount of lip service and political deal making with Heaven will change the outcome!
Can you see all the church superstars gathering together on some massive stage, praying and agreeing on doctrine of any kind? It’s not happening now, but it might happen after the sword of the Lord intensifies across this nation, but I wouldn’t buy any advanced tickets for that one. Now if our church leaders want to find the biggest stage on the planet that will hold the weight of their egos, and strip off their pride, wearing only sackcloth and ashes, maybe, just maybe, Heaven would offer a reprieve. But from where I’m sitting, I can only hear the sound of crickets!
Jeremiah declares the warning and uses a prophetic illustrated sermon by means of a yoke around his neck. America, we have been wearing a yoke around our neck for over seven years under this current administration! Can you tell me what merits of righteousness and deep acts of repentance grants us the freedom from this yoke? The silence is deafening because we have been silent in our crying out to God! Our pulpits are quiet, lethargic and impotent, not because of an IRS code (501c3) but because we don’t believe in the Covenant called the Bible! We are not forbidden to speak of the Blood of the Lamb by our government. We don’t preach about it because we don’t believe in its’ power! We are not forbidden to speak against the sin of abortion, murder, pedophilia, homosexuality, or even the sin of lying. The PC police (politically correct), may not like it, but I fear God and not man! Yes, there are incidents of persecution, intimidation, and mafia style extortion taking place against the Church, but that should be NORMAL CHRISTIANITY! Go back to the book of Acts, look how the Church was birthed, in, by, and through persecution! We are too pampered to understand the power and principal of persecution, but our crash course has only begun!
The modern day Laodicean, Babylonian church, doesn’t speak to the sin of our day because they don’t have the fear of the Lord! It has nothing to do with the government! That is a lie. Research church statistics on what they believe and you will find we are apostate in our theology. Our seminaries have become cemeteries where dead men teach dead men a lifeless gospel of humanism! That is why we are living in Hell right now!
The People’s Choice and Voice:
Jeremiah recorded how the false prophet Hananiah, who was only a son of a prophet, prophesied in the House of the Lord, that all would be well. By the way, these false prophets still operate in the House of the Lord! Hananiah rebuked the words of Jeremiah and sought to negate the plans of Heaven.
1 And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
2 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’S house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon:
4 And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon. (Jeremiah 28:1-4)
In verse 2, Hananiah spoke as the devil did to Eve by releasing confusion and deception. Genesis 3:1-7. Did the Lord really say what was said? Did He really mean it? This is what the false Hananiah spirit does, he confuses the language of the prophetic and produces a type of pollution that clouds the truth! Folks, that is what is happening right now in America! This prophetic parallel is undeniable.
Hananiah said God was going to restore the vessels (to us that would be a type of revival and restoration for the Church) and give them a political renewal by returning a King. Now here is what we must see. Zedekiah King of Judah was considered a puppet of the King of Babylon (sound familiar yet) and was chosen by God to be king during this time. Hananiah prophesied that Jeconiah would return during this great restoration of both the house of the Lord and the government. Jeconiah was considered the people’s choice and the voice of the people, because he was popular within the nation. But HE WAS NOT GOD’s choice, nor His Voice! Hananiah prophesied what the people wanted to hear and because of the fear of the people, Zedekiah sat and listened to this tripe.
Let me make this as simple and plain as I can, Hillary Clinton is like King Zedekiah, a puppet of Obama, the King of Babylon. The two of them will continue to lead us deeper into Babylon! Donald Trump might be the people’s choice, but he has not been chosen to lead this country (he might be able to lead us politically, but not spiritually). Even if I and the other prophetic voices that I trust are wrong, there is no political answer or antidote for our sin sickened condition! We will not vote our way out of judgment!
Please read verses 5-11, to understand the word of the Lord being spoken by Jeremiah and the open rebellion of Hananiah’s act of defiance.
12 Then the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the prophet, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron. (Jeremiah 28:12-13)
Because of the sin and acceptance of a lying prophet’s words, judgment was intensified. Church, if you follow the voices of the false prophets of this hour, your ability to clearly navigate through this storm will be greatly diminished. Why? Because you choose to believe a lie, and are participants in rebellion against God and His will!
15 Then said the prophet Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.
16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the LORD. (Jeremiah 28:15-16)
Do you see it? Rebellion against the Lord was declared because they did not accept the Word of the Lord and what He had planned for the nation! There was nothing they in the assembly at the House of the Lord (Jeremiah 28:1) could do to change what God had determined, even with the false Hananiah prophecy. It was a prophetic certainty that judgment was coming. They tried to prophesy and gather together to avert the inevitable, but as we know, history proved Jeremiah was right, and Hananiah went to his reward.
I understand that no one desires what is coming down the road for this nation. Like Jeremiah, I would like for the prophesies of the Hananiahs to be true. But they are not. Therefore, I must prepare my life, my church, and my family for captivity!
In conclusion, I want to point out several important prophetic parallels. In Jeremiah 28:1 we are told that this event in the House of the Lord was in the fifth month, which is the month of Av, which is a very important month in Israel’s history. It would translate to our month of August. I bring this to light because many prophetic voices are speaking of August as a possible time of great unrest and confusion within our nation, leading up to the time of the elections (if there are elections).
But what I found so amazing is in verse 17.
17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month. (Jeremiah 28:17)
The seventh month for us would be October. Now I am not speaking of anyone dying who opposes the Prophets of Truth. What I am saying is that by October/November of this year, the voice of the spirit of Hananiah and the false hope it gives will be silenced concerning this election. The reason for my view can found in a word I released in May 2016, entitled “The Veil Will Now Be Lifted and You Will See the Land for What It Is, HELL”. In that word, the Father impressed upon my heart these words,
“It will be a suddenly! I believe the Father impressed into my heart, ‘America and the Church has six months before our harvest of judgment comes to full term.’ I do not see true repentance in sight.”
Six months from when I received that word in May brings us to the October/November period. That timing is also confirmed by the following verse from the prophet Isaiah.
5 For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches. (Isaiah 18:5)
Judgment will arrive at a time when the harvest is almost ripe; when the sour grapes, which speak of judgment, are ready for harvest. Look for it this fall season!
What if judgment comes crashing down around this nation like an iron yoke? Will you and your family, your church, and your neighbors be ready? Will your politicking for your voice and choice for president really make a difference then?
For me, I fear the Lord. For my house, we will obey and trust in the Father and we will not follow any leadership whether church or political, that doesn’t show us fruits of repentance and righteousness. All I can tell the Body of Christ is what I’ve been told to do by the Father. “You better get into the word and let the word get into you, shut off the false prophets and get ready for impact!”
And if it seems evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. (Joshua 24:15)

Thank you Pastor Faircloth for this true word. There are several other words
that have appeared on this website that contradict what you said here and they are causing confusion. But Praise the Lord for the true prophets of God.
Pastor, this is the most powerful article i have read for speaking the truth, not illusion, false hope, false comfort.
it is really wrong when people think that a certain president can save their country and their own sins, meanwhile it is all about collective wrongdoings,
The Lord Jesus never asked people to pray so that the siege of Jerusalem in 70 ad can be diverted, but instead He asked them to pray so that it would not happen during the winter time, and also to flee when they saw it.
many likes to use the example with abraham’s story, but that’s for only his time and case.
the siege of Jerusalem happened during the great apostle and Christian’s time, so are we better than them ??
it is prideful and illusion mindset that have been polluted people with imbalance and false of prosperity message
thank you Pastor
Thanks Pastor for being faithful. Praise the Lord. It’s time for us to pray: Isa 26:9 “With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.”
I thought God sent King David into to clean up the mess Saul made.
God sent His Son to clean up the mess that Adam and Eve made….
Pastor Faircloth,
Thank you for continuing to bring words from the Lord. I truly appreciate your consistency, obedience and honesty. Two other things that in my opinion add to your word are Mena Lee Grebins’ message that God does not execute judgment during a Jubilee year and the fact that the Jubilee will end in October with Yom Kippur. I have felt all year that when we get to October and the Jubilee ends things will really begin to happen rapidly as many prophetic words have stated. Also FYI Rachel Baxter and Julie Whedbee both recently mentioned on Tribulation Now that the Lord has confirmed to them that the work Gil Broussard has been doing on Nibiru/Planet X/Wormwood is very accurate. God bless you.
Hebrews 10:23-25 (NKJV)
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
Romans 12:3-8 (NKJV)
3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. 4 For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. 6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; 7 or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; 8 he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
That you , thank you pastor fair cloth you are so ride on most churches don’t preach repentance thank goodness I go to a little country church that does the church will grow through the shaking and persecution that’s coming
Boy, I sure am glad I’m not a Jew and don’t have to take my instruction from the Old Testament. Ever since my baptism at the age of ten I’ve been bound by the New Covenant set down by Jesus Christ the Messiah. Jesus is so much nicer than the wrathful God of the Hebrews, all He wants is for me to love my neighbor and my God – and forgive those who trespass against me. Plus I get to eat bacon. Bacon is good.
Amy, the character of God has never changed. The wrath of God is real and ever present for the unrepentant sinner. But for the repentant, there is grace in Jesus Christ. There is no separating the Father and Son. They are one.
Well, there is so much richness in the Old Covenant. The Old Covenant concealed is the New Covenant revealed. There are so many key types and shadows of Jesus throughout the Old Covenant. The thread of Redemption can be seen throughout.
For one small example, the entire Book of Ruth can be seen as a prophetic picture of the “Gentile Church Age” and SO much more. I could go “on and on.”
And a part of the world is indeed getting wiped away through war, famine, disease, and wild animals. My country Fiji is just a small dot compared to other giants on the map. However, just recently, cancer and diabetes is taking over like common cold. Then I look at other places in the world where new diseases are being introduced like Ebola, Zika etc. Also the cost of living here is so high. The minimum wage rate is just $2/hr but a kg of flour costs around $2.80. Then interestingly, we had an election in 2014 where the country voted for a Fijian man as Prime Minister assuming we will remain a Christian state. However, ever since this government sat into power, the country is controlled entirely by his Deputy who is a Muslim man. The Prime Minister is now just a puppet in his hands. Every decision of the country is made by the Muslim guy. Also where Fiji used to look forward to aid from countries like USA, Australia and NZ, we are now heavily depending on Asian countries like China and India for support. Just this year, we went through a major Category 5 Cyclone whose intensity was unexpected. Although Christianity is still a major religion here right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if one morning I would wake up and hear these same Christians being persecuted as our country is led by non believers. Already the love of many people have grown cold. Nearly every week, we hear of some gruesome murder that has taken place, rape, robbery with assault, corruption here are just as bad as any other country. Even Christians in Fiji are equally mingling around with unbelievers, living unrighteous lives in the name of multinationalism and harmony. I myself was one of such kind until God disci lined me and opened my eyes and I came back to him repenting. I have since then embarked on a journey to warn others but am facing trials aand temptations like never before. I would therefore request everyone to pray for me as I am constantly being attacked by the devil physically and emotionally. By no means do I fear death as I have lost everything I had in this world who mattered much to me like my baby and mum but I still believe God has a purpose for me. He is still working on me to make me ready for his kingdom. I wouldn’t be surprised if I would be one of the persecuted Christians before the rapture occurs as a couple of days ago, I was praying to God for an easy death where I wouldn’t have to face any assault. That night I dreamt I was in an experimental lab. And this man was hovering over me staring in my eye. As soon as I saw him, I picked whatever strength I had and ran away telling everyone he was the Antichrist. The next morning, I gently heard my spirit asking me if I was afraid to die for the Lord I adore so much. I immediately felt guilty for my easy death request and asked the Lord for forgiveness. I asked for his strength in that if I have to die for him, I will. The next night I had another dream where I saw a man hiding in a cave in the mountains. He was feeding a group of people. It wasn’t a big group, just about 15-20 people. The next day I had another dream where I saw dshower cubicles in which there were 3men butt naked facing the wall with guns on their hand. Soldiers in black were surrounding them telling them to say Jesus one more time and they die. All these visions occured between 3-4am. The third one was so scary I immediately got up and started reading the whole of Revelations to cross check on a pre tribulation rapture. I couldn’t find one. Instead the scripture revealed to me was Matthew 24:9-14 “Then you will be arrested and handed over to be punished and be put to death. Everyone will hate you because of me. Many will give up their faith at that time; they will betray one another and hate one another. Then many false prophets will appear and fool many people. Such will be the spread of evil that many people’s love will grow cold. But whoever holds out to the end will be saved. And this Good News about the Kingdom will be preached through all the world for a witness to all people; and then the end will come.”
I also speculate that these Muslim leaders, who are now hiding behind the main leaders in some countries like ours, will very soon emerge and rule freehand. It is not just America that is under judgement from God, but the whole world including our small country. We have tasted a glimpse of what you are about to face. I believe the persecutions will be the same for Christians all around the globe.
Thanks for sharing this awesome testimony Priti.
Matthew 24: 11-13 “Then many false prophets will appear and fool many people. Such will be the spread of evil that many people’s love will grow cold. But whoever holds out to the end will be saved.”
I prayed that God would reveal to me the book of Revelations. I feel like we are now in between the 3rd and 4th seal where the price of food items is souring high.
Priti,
Thanks for sharing. Perhaps Rev 7:9-17 can offer you comfort. I have compared it to Rev 6:9 and found these multitudes from every nation to be whole people (and not slained) appearing – seen by John. As always, pray for spiritual clarity. GB
During another of my meditations, I felt the Spirit confirm that the second seal has been opened, and that I would also see the effects of the manifestation of the third and fourth seals being opened soon.
Once again, the Lord impressed upon me to prepare for persecution.
Pastor,
This is a fantastic parallel that you have drawn from the lives of Jeremiah and Hananiah. Yesterday, I posted a comment on how I am experiencing trials and victories at the same time. Today I will share what I received during my meditation on July 25.
Meditation passage: Acts 27: 27–32
Meditation
General message. I am the lifeboat in this storm. Yet my people have cast me away and put their hopes in the wealth and riches of this world and in their own preparations. They will not survive. How can my people hope to survive a storm if I am not with them? Yet they have cast me away.
Personal message. If you want to survive this storm, continue to abide in me.
Takeaways from the meditation. There is a storm coming. It is here. The way out of the storm is not for it to go away but for me (and every professing believer) to get into the lifeboat that has been prepared for me (and every professing believer) to survive it, and the name of the lifeboat is Jesus Christ.
Awesome Sujit!!! Thank you for sharing that, be blessed my brother!
“The way out of the storm is not for it to go away but for me (and every professing believer) to get into the lifeboat that has been prepared for me “.
This effectively describes most of the current discussion. Whether it’s Trump, politics, or especially all the “prophecies” going around that God is going to help us change our country and leaders for the better.
Everyone wants the storm to go away. Ironically, most of the storm hasn’t even gotten here (contemplate that ).
