Subject: Native Americans

In March I attended a conference in Boise, Idaho. During a break, my wife and I took a walk along the Boise River. It was a beautiful and peaceful walk until we came upon a somewhat hidden area. It was obviously a homeless camp. There were various containers of adult beverages scattered about among torn sleeping bags and other debris. There seemed to be a dark pall over this site. No one was there, so we snooped around a little. We came upon a pile of river stones, which looked almost like an alter. While gazing upon it, I could see in the spirit that underneath the stones there was a metal hatch covering a hole. Suddenly the hatch flipped open, and hideous creatures started to crawl out. They had faces of ugly, distorted men and a body like a bee. They had wings and the long stinger made up the bulk of the body. Suddenly, I realized that these must be the creatures spoken of in Revelation chapter 9:

"And out of the smoke came forth locusts upon the earth; and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was said unto them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only such men as have not the seal of God on their foreheads. And it was given them that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when it striketh a man. And in those days men shall seek death, and shall in no wise find it; and they shall desire to die, and death fleeth from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared for war; and upon their heads as it were crowns like unto gold, and their faces were as men's faces. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to war. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to war. And they have tails like unto scorpions, and stings; and in their tails is their power to hurt men five months. They have over them as king the angel of the abyss: his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek tongue he hath the name Apollyon". (Rev 9:3-11)

We prayed for mercy and the blood of Jesus to cover this hatch. I began to see the hatch turn into a mound of pure gold, effectively sealing it up. We prayed for this site to be a blessing to those who came there and not a curse.

As we were leaving, I saw another startling sight. White men wearing cowboy hats and riding horses were rushing through the brush and trees to attack a Native American encampment. The attack was a surprise and a complete slaughter. My wife said she saw witchcraft also taking place at this site.

I realized that a gate and portal to hell had been opened when innocent blood had been shed. For the Kingdom of God to manifest itself on earth, the curses released through the shedding of Native American blood need to be removed. Justifying these sins will have no case before the throne of God. Other intercessors are receiving this same message into their spirits. I believe these strongholds must be dealt with on a case by case basis. It is much like pulling teeth, a painful struggle of repentance and removal of sins through the blood of Jesus. Through the mercy and grace of Almighty God, these strongholds shall be transformed into beautiful gardens of Jubilee. God in His sovereign will, has chosen the weak vessels of His children to accomplish His purposes.
