Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV):
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Dear Friends,
As we enter Day 26 of the "40 Days to Save America" campaign of prayer, fasting and repentance, we are reminded that God's peace is available to us, even amid uncertainty and struggle. Peace isn’t the absence of challenges but the presence of Christ in our lives, giving us calm in the storm.
In these trying times for our nation, it’s easy to let anxiety and fear take root. But God invites us to lay down our burdens and trust Him with everything. Today, let us be intentional in exchanging our worries for His peace, which guards both our hearts and minds.
Special Feature: Breaking: Gate of Shadows: Unveiling the Dark Spiritual Battle in France and Its Prophetic Implications
As the world continues to wrestle with growing geopolitical tension and spiritual unrest, a disturbing event is unfolding in France that echoes biblical prophecy and highlights the rising influence of dark spiritual forces. Known as the Gate of Shadows, this upcoming festival in the city of Toulouse is stirring deep concern among spiritual leaders and Christians around the world.
Described as a "demonic spectacle," the Gate of Shadows event will showcase larger-than-life representations of figures from the occult and ancient mythologies. The festival’s centerpiece will be a terrifying figure named Lilith—depicted as a half-woman, half-scorpion creature. In ancient lore, Lilith is associated with the loss of children and spiritual death, making her a powerful symbol of darkness and destruction.
The Spiritual Battle Intensifies
For many Christians, this event is a clear sign of the escalating spiritual battle between good and evil. As we near the prophesied end times, demonic influences seem to be gaining traction in public spaces, normalized through events like the Gate of Shadows. Pastor Paul Begley, my coauthor of our #1 bestseller Revelation 911, recently highlighted this growing trend, warning that such festivals aren’t just harmless entertainment—they are invitations for dark spiritual forces to enter our world.
The Catholic Church has taken notice. Archbishop Guy de Kérimel of Toulouse is planning to consecrate the city to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in a desperate attempt to ward off the dark spiritual forces being summoned. This spiritual counteraction underscores the deep concern felt by many believers, as they witness once-Christian nations embracing occult practices and glorifying evil.
The Prophetic Context
As we examine these developments through a biblical lens, it becomes clear that events like the Gate of Shadows align with what the Bible warns will happen in the last days. In the Book of Revelation, we are told of a great deception that will sweep the earth, with the rise of a Beast Kingdom that will lead humanity into darkness. The normalization of evil and the glorification of demonic symbols point directly to this prophetic reality.
Uncover the truth in Troy Anderson’s #1 bestseller The Trump Code (Charisma House/FrontLine). Discover the curious parallels between the prophetic 19th century novels of Ingersoll Lockwood - The Baron Trump Collection - and events surrounding President Donald Trump and the future of America.
In Pastor Paul Begley’s latest broadcast of The Coming Apocalypse, he reminds viewers that these events are no coincidence. “The gates of hell are opening,” Pastor Paul warns, “but the Bible tells us that the gates of hell will not prevail against the Church.” This reminder is a call to Christians everywhere to stay vigilant, rooted in faith, and aware of the spiritual forces at play.
What Does This Mean for Us?
While the Gate of Shadows may be a specific event taking place in France, it reflects a much larger trend seen globally. There’s an increasing acceptance of occult practices, Satanic rituals, and demonic influences, not only in entertainment but in public and political spaces. Pastor Paul often points out that these aren’t isolated incidents—they are interconnected signs pointing to the coming fulfillment of biblical prophecy.
As believers, we are called to stand firm in our faith, knowing that the battle is not just physical but spiritual. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
Standing in the Light
While it’s easy to become discouraged by the increasing visibility of evil in our world, we must remember that light always overcomes darkness. Events like the Gate of Shadows remind us of the importance of prayer, spiritual warfare, and a deep commitment to God’s Word. As Pastor Paul said, “The gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church.”
As we witness these end-time events unfold, it is crucial that we draw closer to God, seek His protection, and remain strong in faith. The spiritual battle is intensifying, but we are promised victory in Christ.

Join Troy Anderson’s Prayer: Call for Revival, Repentance, and Blessing
Heavenly Father,
We come before You, acknowledging our need for Your mercy, grace, and power in these times of great uncertainty. Lord, we cry out for revival across this land, and we ask for Your Spirit to sweep through our homes, our churches, and our nation. Ignite in us a renewed passion for Your Word, for truth, and for righteousness. Let this be the hour when Your people rise up in boldness, proclaiming the gospel and standing firm in Your promises.
Father, we repent on behalf of our nation. We confess that we have strayed from Your ways, allowing sin and darkness to infiltrate our land. We ask for Your forgiveness and for the blood of Jesus to cleanse our hearts and heal our nation. Turn us back to You, Lord. Open the eyes of those who have been blinded by deception, and soften the hearts of those who have turned away from You. May we return to being a people who seek Your face and follow Your commandments.
We lift up those who have been affected by disasters, both natural and man-made. Lord, we pray for comfort, provision, and protection over those who are suffering. Whether it be storms, fires, earthquakes, or spiritual battles, we ask for Your peace to surround them. Be their refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble. We pray that Your love and healing touch would reach those who need it most.
Lord, we also bring before You President Donald Trump, JD Vance, their families, and their teams. We ask for Your divine protection, wisdom, and favor to be upon them. Guide their steps and give them discernment as they navigate these challenging times. Surround them with godly counsel and strengthen them for the battles ahead. May they seek You in every decision, and may they be used as instruments of Your will in this nation.
Finally, Lord, we pray for America. We ask that You restore the heart of this nation to be one that honors You. We pray for unity, justice, and peace to prevail, and for Your kingdom to come and Your will to be done. We ask that the forces of evil be thwarted and that Your light shines brightly in the darkness. Let Your Church be salt and light, a beacon of hope in a world that desperately needs You.
We commit all these things into Your hands, trusting in Your perfect plan and timing. Revive us, O Lord. Heal our land. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray.
Amen.
Presidential Reflections: A Call to Prayer and Repentance
Each day, we draw inspiration from historical figures who called the nation to prayer and repentance during times of great challenge. These moments in history remind us of the enduring importance of turning to God for guidance, especially in uncertain times. In today's reflection, we turn to President James K. Polk, who, in his 1845 Inaugural Address, fervently invoked the "Almighty Ruler of the Universe" to safeguard the nation during a period of great expansion and political division.
Polk’s reliance on divine wisdom serves as a timeless example of humility and faith. He understood that true leadership requires seeking God's guidance, especially when the nation's peace and prosperity are at stake. As we face challenges in our world today, let us follow the example of leaders like Polk, who called upon God’s mercy and grace through prayer and repentance.
President James K. Polk - 11th President of the United States: 1845 ‐ 1849
Inaugural Address - March 04, 1845: A Leader’s Faith and the Nation's Future
On March 4, 1845, President James K. Polk took the oath of office as the 11th president of the United States. As he stood before the American people, his inaugural address reflected not only his political vision but also his deep sense of responsibility before God. Polk’s reliance on prayer and divine wisdom is a powerful reminder of the role faith plays in the highest office.
Polk began his presidency with a profound acknowledgment of the challenges ahead, invoking the "Almighty Ruler of the Universe" and placing the nation’s fate in God’s hands. In a time of territorial expansion and political division, Polk expressed humility, stating:
"I fervently invoke the aid of that Almighty Ruler of the Universe in whose hands are the destinies of nations and of men to guard this Heaven-favored land."
His faith was not just personal but a guiding force as he sought divine protection and wisdom to ensure the peace and prosperity of the United States.
Further into his address, Polk continued to express his firm reliance on God, emphasizing the need for prayer in leadership:
"With a firm reliance upon the wisdom of Omnipotence to sustain and direct me in the path of duty which I am appointed to pursue, I stand in the presence of this assembled multitude of my countrymen to take upon myself the solemn obligation."
Polk’s words remind us of the importance of prayer and faith in guiding decisions that affect the nation. His reliance on God’s wisdom during a time of national uncertainty, when the country was expanding westward and encountering new challenges, serves as a timeless example for leaders today. Polk’s trust in divine providence continues to resonate, reminding us that faith and governance need not be separate but can work in harmony for the greater good.
