 Football Season Game Prophecy 9/7/23

 While camping, I watched the Chiefs/Lions game which was the first NFL game of the 2023 regular season.  The Chiefs had won the Super Bowl last year, and the Lions were  considered a mediocre team ranking more toward the bottom, then the top.  They were under dogs and never got to playoffs and not ever the Superbowl.  It has been 66 years since a championship win!

 -----------------------------------  

 In 2021 the Lions were rated 16th in the NFC  with 3 wins, 13 losses and 1 tie.  They did better by the end of the 2022 season, but not enough to make it to the playoffs.  Definitely known as underdogs! 

Pieces of the Puzzle:

This is how God talks and verifies that He is speaking to me.  Many times it's just a word or a thought. Other times it's a picture, dream and many times it's a piece of the puzzle. I also call it my scavenger hunt with the Lord. Do you like to play a game? I love games. So does the Lord. He is never boring and we have a lot of fun together.

 Please understand that the world and the announcers on the game were saying the Lions would lose this game and were basically worst in the league.

 On 9/7/2023 the Lord spoke to me while I was watching the game and said "Watch and see what I do.  There is a turn around this new year.  Truth will be exposed and yes true justice, my justice is coming back to my America.  Watch the Lions.  They will surprise the world.  I am the Lion of Judah!  I am the true Chief, the Commander in Chief.  Watch the Lions.  It is a representation of what I will do this year in your life if you are willing to be fully committed to my team.  Press in and fight offensively.  The Lions are known for their offense focus this year.  Allow me to be your quarterback and We will win these battles together.  You have waited so long to see the win!  NOW is the time.  The clock is ticking."

  Puzzle Piece 1:

 So here was the first piece of the puzzle. I wasn't sure exactly what God meant or how far this would go. You see I didn't know anything about the Detroit Lions because they weren't the team I watched. Idaho doesn't really have an NFL team so many of us just root for teams near us or our favorite team. Our team changes like the wind, because we were for the Seahawks but they haven't been doing so good lately. The last team I would ever pay attention too would be the Detroit Lions. They just weren't much to watch as far as I was concerned. I always felt sorry for their fans but I have to admit they were so faithful and stuck with them through all the years of never making it to even the Divisional playoffs. Or for that fact even being a divisional leader in any way. It was sad to watch so I didn't. Like many of you, their team and their fans have waited and stayed faithfully pressing in toward a win to a full vision of winning, just like Lions winning the Division Championships and the final win of Superbowl, but they have never succeeded. 

 First game of NFL Regular Season 
 2023 Chiefs - 2022 winners of the Superbowl verses Detroit Lions 

The game itself was intense and overall a miracle victory for the Lions. The Lions won 21 to 20. It was back and forth but every point was won by a touchdown and extra point. The whole time until the last quarter the announcers continued to parade the Chiefs and downplay the Lions. Then their attitude started to change when they realized how well the Lions were playing. The Lions won and have continued to win At the top of their division. But because I felt that I had gotten a word from the Lord I started to watch the Lions out of obedience. I told my husband that first day that the Lord had spoken to me, but I didn't really talk too much to anybody else about it. You see I can be a chicken when I want to be. It's much easier just to keep it to myself, but that's not really the calling I have on my life as God reminds me.  Many times people have tried to silence me or also tell me women should not speak in the church. I usually ignore them and their ignorance. But God also reminds me it's my choice to obey or not to obey HIM. I am working on that. I am now endeavoring to obey. Here's my excuse, you see He had not told me to speak it out to anybody necessarily, "or that they would win the Super Bowl". It was my choice as always. He just said "watch and see what I do". He had to build my faith a little I think.

Puzzle Piece 2:

 Shortly after that, I started noticing a lot of ads and spots about Taylor Swift on TV. I really didn't know that much about her other than some of her music. I knew that she had been raised as a Christian but had kind of fallen in the other direction. I remember saying to Jerry what is the deal about Taylor Swift? Every time I turn around and watch TV there's something about Taylor Swift and her new International music tour. Then I heard a rumor that Taylor Swift was engaged or at least a was a girlfriend to Travis Kelce. He is a top linebacker for the Kansas City Chiefs.  So all this made me a little more curious and I looked up some of the songs that Taylor Swift was popular for recently, and was shocked to see some really demonic witchcraft stuff in some of her videos.  Taylor Swift has not been known for having great relationships with past boyfriends, and the song that she sang that got my attention was “Willow”. It's about casting love potions on someone to cause them to love you. It has her dressed up as a witch and demons all around her. It is really really strange and my alarm bells really went off. 

Because Travis was dating Taylor Swift and she was showing up at the games, Travis started coming out more in advertising and became a big deal even more than just his playing abilities which are phenomenal. He is definitely one of the stars of the Kansas City Chiefs for sure.  I just couldn't figure out initially why I was seeing this about both of them. Then I saw a teaching on YouTube about Taylor Swift and her new tour she was doing, and how they would be televising it on regular TV all over the world for us all to see! The Lord spoke to me and said “warn people to make sure they are not watching this because there will be spells cast through those programs”.  I believe the Lord was showing me to look deeper into the Chiefs just as an example He would use in the puzzle pieces.  You know, good verses evil.  

 Puzzle Number 3:

 As we continue to watch the Lions games, they just kept winning. It began to become personal to me, because I felt the Lord was telling me to start telling people to pay attention to the Lions games and the wins.  He was starting to ask me to step out and take a risk by speaking out about what He had told me in the prophecy. So I started to tell people but not too many. I have to admit my confidence was not fully there. 

Puzzle Piece Number 4:
On December 24, 2023 the Lions came off of a 30-24 win over the Vikings which clinched the NFC North Division title win for the first time since 1993! The fans had packed the arena once again hoping for that never to be seen win and they saw it! Tears and cheers were everywhere. The fans stayed and would not leave the stadium for quite a while after the win. What a celebration and new hope!

Puzzle Piece Number 5:

 As the games progressed, the Lions were at the top of their division which was the NFC North. The Cowboys, the buccaneers, and the 49ers were at the top of their divisions in the NFC also. It would be important to win over the Cowboys which was the next game they would play so that they would have a home game advantage. The Cowboys usually won when they played at home.  The more a team plays at home, it usually just seems to go that way.  This would also determine which one of the division leaders would be exempt from playing the  first wild card playoff game.  That would give that team a break to rest and not have to compete in the wild card playoffs. At least that's how I think it goes.

 Now don't get me wrong, I really like the Cowboys team and have rooted for them for many years. This really isn't about the Team. This is about you and I and America. The The Lions would have to stay on top of their division to make it to the NFC championship. Although they would not have to win the Cowboys game, it was still very important and a win would be a huge advantage for the Lions. For the first time in 32 years the Lions made it to an NFC Championship game. The next game I watched and would be played was between the Cowboys and the Lions with the Cowboys at a home advantage.  It was an intense game and the announcers were obviously to me, for the cowboys to win. Even the half-time show was set up to promote the Cowboys. Of course the stadium was packed with Cowboy fans.

 As the game progressed, each quarter the game went evenly. Each team dominated back and forth. It was an intense and great game. But at the very end in the last 30 seconds of the 4th quarter, the Lions got a touchdown when they had been down three points and then decided to go for an extra two points which would cause them to win in stead of a tie breaker. It was a huge risk but the coach was willing to take it. They took the risk and won the game.

 Unfortunately the ref threw a flag and said that the player that caught the ball was ineligible and had not reported as elligible. Instead the ref claimed the player that had reported, a different player, was on the other side of the field. The entire stadium was shocked but the Cowboy fans were elated. This would cause the Lions to repeat that 4th down again and they did. The Lions did not get the points the second time. This allowed the Cowboys to hold the ball and win the game. 

But the truth of the matter was that the player had reported, and it was a bad call!  It was caught on video and proved later that the player that had gotten the touchdown had reported! It was shocking and heartbreaking to the Lions fans and the team. There actually is a video that shows there was no announcement of  the other player reporting which is normally done throughout the stadium. The original playback video shows the true player reporting and the error the ref made. But, 5 hours later there is a video that comes out that is in Spanish but you can hear the announcement of the ref making the announcement of the report of the other player. Hmmm.  There's a video showing how that Spanish video had been doctored. Even the announcers that have been there doing it for years said something was wrong with that call and the fix was in. There is now a lawsuit pending on all of that.  Think about it, huge bets were being placed, millions of dollars were at stake and people and many were deeply affected. You may laugh but hearts were broken and again so was trust in justice. To be fair the ref had also made another bad call during the game, calling a foul on the Cowboys instead of the Lions. Two bad calls but the last one was devastating. The ref insisted he was correct and they did not research it more before declaring the win for the Cowboys. Later the referee and his team were supposedly disciplined and will not be refs in the Super Bowl.  If they did nothing wrong why are they being disciplined? 

The owner Jerry Jones of the cowboys has a fairly shady reputation.  From what I have heard, he bought the cowboys team with a loan from the teamsters Union years ago. I thought that was a little odd.From what I hear In 2002 he made a declaration before people and God, and told God that if God would help him win the Super Bowl, he would never ask Him again. From that point on the Cowboys have never won the Super Bowl but have come close. That was a curse Jerry spoke and the team is reaping the consequences of that. Ahhhhh, he may want to repent for saying that and possibly reverse that. Spoken words are powerful.

 To me and others there was such an injustice done on this last game of this season with the Cowboys and the Lions. The Cowboys lost the next game in their home advantage. They were out of the playoffs and the Super Bowl. No surprise to me.

 Puzzle piece number 6:

 Now that the Lions were in the playoffs with two more wins to get to the Super Bowl, they had to win over the Buccaneers and the 49ers. The Lions won over the Buccaneers but it was an intense game. In the 4th quarter and at the end, the Lions got a touchdown and won the game.  Whew!  Jerry and I were on the edge of our seats as I'm sure many were. 

Puzzle piece number 7:

 Kansas City Chiefs played the Dolphins after that and won .  They dominated the game and even though I wanted to see the Dolphins win because I didn't want the Lions playing Kansas City at the Super Bowl.  I believe there was a purpose for it. After the win it dawned on me that MAYBE the final two just might be again like the first game of the season, the Lions versus the Kansas City Chiefs! I suspect that's what's going to happen.  Wouldn't that be fun? Just a thought and a hope.

Puzzle piece number 8:

 Now the Lions have one more game to play to win the NFC championship which will put them in the Super Bowl. This Sunday they will be playing the 49ers which is an amazing team and got to the super bowl 4 of the last 5 years. And remember the Kansas City Chiefs won the super bowl last year. Yikes!  Are we having fun yet?

 A couple of days ago I was sitting here thinking about all of this and I felt like the Lord said" put it out there. You speak other things out and they come to pass because I've told you what was going to happen. Trust me on this and don't be afraid. I'm going to build your confidence and boldness through this  to speak out my word. "

Did you know I win things?  I have other past testimonies on my blog under testimonies.  But I only win if it is used for a testimony to show that God is real. It's a funny thing that God and I do together. You can see it in some of my other testimonies. I never do it to win something but it just happens. And no I don't place bets, and if you are reading this before the Super Bowl, please don't bet! Lol, it will not turn out well eventually.

So now we wait and see the rest of the story. I feel like the Lord told me to post this at least on my blog with a date on it. The truth is, the Lions have never gotten this far in over 32 years and when they win the Super Bowl it will be 66 years.

 Puzzle number 9:

 While all of this is going on, we are all aware of how messed up our country has become.  Many of us do not believe anymore in our government and have watched our finances, inflation, our health rights, our borders invaded, and on and on it goes. If I fly a US flag through town on my truck, I get cheers, but many times get the finger. It is sad to see. I actually had a lady spit on me one day while  I was walking with a USA flag over the overpass.  This thing has to turn around or we won't have a country we can be proud of and love anymore. This is God's country but only if we will fight and keep it. One thing I recognized about that first football game on September 7th, is that it was the week before Rosh Hashanah which is the Jewish New Year. This is the time that God sets the agenda for the next year.

 Puzzle number 10:

 In the midst of this I'm sure many of you are aware of President Trump and the prophecies about him serving another term. Some of you believe in it and some of you don't. As a matter of fact there were Prophets that were totally persecuted for predicting that Trump would serve another term. Some gave in and said they were wrong.  Others still continue to confess that he is going to serve another term. There has been a lot of persecution over the election and people standing up and declaring that it was stolen and protesting it. January 6th is a time in history that will be used against Christians and those that will stand up and fight for justice and Truth. There is definitely a persecution coming against not only the Jews, Christians, but anyone that stands against the lies of our government and the media right now.

 Here we are now watching Trump as he is constantly persecuted and attacked by lawsuits and indictments. I have never seen such a fighter as he is in regards to fighting for the truth. You may not like him but I believe he is God's choice and the election was stolen from him and the people who voted. The good news is I believe he's going to win this next election and overcome and it's going to be an example to all of us. God is going to use him to expose truth, and already is  exposing the truth to every American with eyes to see. This will bring a Great Awakening to America and Trump is a big part of that. The primary elections have already started to determine who will be the GOP candidate for President and Trump is winning, winning, winning! 

Now you and I both know that we certainly can't have Joe Biden back in for another 4 years.  We cannot be that stupid!  God will have His way and His plan was always for Trump to have a second term. Just like the Lions versus the Chiefs, we are in a battle to bring victory. We have the true Commander in Chief, our quarterback leading the way and fighting the battle with us. As the Lord said to me with Lions and the Chiefs game," just you wait and see what I do!" I believe  Get ready because I'm about to blow your mind. The dreams that you've had that have never come to pass in your life, are about to be fulfilled. Your children will come to the Lord that you've been praying for, for years. Healings and miracles will happen in front of your eyes and I will use you in that ministry. The calling and the training I have put you through is now going to pay off. I will use you to touch people's lives and bring salvation to many and you will see the Resurrection of the body of Christ like never before. The clock is ticking and we are in the final moments."

I believe God is about to flip this whole thing around and bring us back to the country that He has always planned it to be. An allie and friend of Israel, a country of freedom, and one nation under God with liberty and justice for all.  The very opposite of what Satan has tried to orchestrate. 

We know in the end  and we win! Yes it is the end times, and yes the battle is on. But, we know the outcome and in the final second of the last quarter we have the victory!

Please be clear that the Bible says that we only prophesy in part ,so don't shoot the messenger. The church is very quick to do that especially if you prophesy a future event.  I have to give anyone that prophesies with boldness like that encouragement. It takes a lot of faith and trust in God to do it.

  Miracles have already happened with the Lions winning the North Division title for the first time in 32 years.  There was definitely a VICTORY on 12/24/2023!  Let's just see IF I'm right on this Super Bowl thing. God still has me in training!

 I love you all and pray that you're encouraged by this message. This is the year of the open door but only if you take a risk, and walk in faith right through it. Let's have an awesome year with the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior!  It is going to be very exciting. We are in the 4th quarter in the final seconds.

Well very close but lost the last game by 3 points. The important point is that just like the Lions, we are winning.  The Lions are fighters and are moving forward.  They had a huge Division win.  We are in a battle but in the final Championship the King of Kings wins!

 Let's Go!
