[Editor's note:Â Below are the dreams and encounters that Andrew Whalen shared during his recent interview on ElijahStreams. We encourage our readers to carefully pray through them and watch Andrew's interview here for full context.]
From Covert to Overt
Encounter received on February 1, 2025:
Upon waking up one day, I found my dreams were a bit foggy... I couldn't make out anything clearly. So I chalked it up to "Well, maybe God just didn't have anything to share last night." Then standing up out of bed, I clearly heard an internal, audible voice say, "WE ARE OPERATIONAL." I know what I heard, and it was unmistakable.
In the moment I heard it, I had a "revelatory knowing" that the military OPS (which have been operational for the entirety of the last eight years) had now entered a new phase. I knew that we were going to begin to see increasing evidence of military precision and engagements against deeply entrenched enemies of America.
Though I don't believe we will ever be allowed to see everything because of the nature of these OPS, and the need for a measure of security, I do believe the "covert" phase is now shifting into "overt" OPS, which will only show what we need for the optics to awaken as a society!
We must understand that we have been at war, but it's a war in which the tide has turned on behalf of every freedom-loving person in America and the nations! Trump represents the patriotic control of America under the protection of the U.S. military!
As a prophetic warrior, I believe the Lord allowed me to hear His word, "WE ARE OPERATIONAL," because an army of angels is now being commissioned to assist in this next operational phase of reconstituting America!
For us as the Ekklesia and the praying saints, we must have the attitude and mentality that David employed against his enemies: he pursued them and overtook them (Psalm 18:37). This is not a time to shrink back! This is a time to amp up our prayers! This is a time to launch faith-filled words, dreams, and promises against ancient "Goliaths" that have stood to mock the name of the Lord and His people!
We are now witnessing the fall of many Goliaths across the earth; may their heads never rise again!
"I'm Recovering the Soul of America!"
Revelation and dream received in February 2025:
On February 11, 2025, as I was on a prayer drive, I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, "I'M RECOVERING THE SOUL OF AMERICA!"
On February 19, 2025, I had a dream where I walked into an American themed clothing store. I was there to go shopping. For some reason, I walked in and took my shoes off. (The shoes looked more like thin slippers, like the soles of shoes.)
I went into a room inside this American store and tried on items of clothing. A man interrupted me, and then the woman working at the clothing store also came in. They said they were trying to help me with my clothes, but something felt off about them, like they were trying to distract me. (Photo via Wikimedia Commons)
The next thing I realized, I was no longer in the store and was now leaving. However, a sudden thought hit me—the soles of my shoes were gone! I realized these people had stolen them.
I went back into the store and caught the man and the woman using the same distraction tactic with another customer in order to steal their shoes too!
I suddenly said, "ENOUGH!" With ferocious indignation, I declared that their game was up and that they would no longer steal from Americans.
Upon waking up from the dream, I heard the Lord say, "The thief has been stealing the souls of Americans, but the thief is now being caught!"
Lament over Babylon
"Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her. In fear of her torment, they will stand at a distance and cry out:
"'Woe, woe to the great city, the mighty city of Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come.'
"And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because there is no one left to buy their cargo—cargo of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls; of fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet; of all kinds of citron wood and every article of ivory, precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble; of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, horses, and carriages; of bodies and souls of slaves." (Revelation 18:9–13, BSB)
A Cyrus Who Will Plunder the Thief!
I remember when Donald Trump first announced he was running for president, I laughed! I listened to him and heard him through my bias. I didn't like him. I felt he was a bit proud. Everyone else considered it a joke, and at first I did too.
That quickly changed when I had a dream. In the dream, I was sitting in the oval office, facing Donald Trump, who was the president sitting behind the desk. I looked at him and saw that he had his Bible opened to Isaiah 45, to the passage about King Cyrus. He then looked at me and said, "Please pray for me."
In the next moment of my dream, I immediately found myself in a dark room, where I saw a secret meeting of former presidents and leaders who were planning to destroy Trump. I was even told what the name of this plan was.
Suddenly, I found myself prophesying to the Body of Christ that if the plan to stop Trump succeeded, then the Millennial generation would truly know what it's like to come under slavery.
When I woke up from this dream, the Lord began to renew my mind concerning how I viewed and understood who Donald Trump was.
To be honest, when I first had the dream, I thought maybe it was being somewhat exaggerated. Now I know it was understated. I have watched the reality of what has faced Trump and now see that we have been slaves all along.
Now, more than ever, we should recognize that even though most of us have been able to afford food to put on our table, we have been slaves to a debt system.
So many of our public and elected "servants" have been slave masters and thieves. They have taken our good faith and betrayed us. They have stolen our "souls"—our blood, sweat, and tears—for their own greed and use. They have confused the masses with the language of servanthood while committing the actions of treasonous slave masters upon those whom they "serve."
If you are standing with the "slave masters" who have leeched the life's blood from our families for generations, you are part of the problem. Let it be known that the entire slave system is now coming under the judgment of the Lord and is slated for destruction. You better pick your side!
If you have any clarity on what is happening, I believe you should be thanking God for raising up President Donald Trump for this nation and this generation. No, he's not a perfect man! But if the Lord's hand be upon him, then I will trust in what God is doing.
A Prayer for Donald Trump:
God, we pray for Donald Trump today, according to the dream and according to Isaiah 45:2–3. Let every plan that is against him be stopped, and may You fulfill the following through him in Jesus name:
"I will go before you and level the mountains; I will break down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness and the riches hidden in secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by name." (Isaiah 45:2–3, BSB) (Photo via Picryl)
Additional Ways That God Is Using to Recover the Soul of America
Here are some additional ways that God is using to recover the soul of America:
• God is breaking the black-pilled spell! It's a belief system anchored to fatalism or defeatism. Even when seeing the good news you can't actually believe it, because you have been so programmed to see the worst. Your soul only serves DEFEAT.
• He is breaking the end-time narratives and programming of fear, hopelessness, loss, the antichrist, defeat, etc.
• He is recovering the blood sweat and tears that have been take from us by systems and structures designed to siphon off of our lives!
"As for you, because of the blood of My covenant, I will release your prisoners from the waterless pit. Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope; even today I declare that I will restore to you double." (Zechariah 9:11–12, BSB)
Game Over! Taking Back America from Evil Doers
Dream received on February 21, 2025:
Last night before bed, I asked the Lord, "Would You tell me where things are at in the process of taking back America from evil controllers, etc.?"
Well, He answered my prayer! He gave me a dream in response to my request.
In the dream, I was shown something that had transpired yesterday (February 20) that finalized something in the overall mission of the plan!
So, what happened yesterday? KASH PATEL was confirmed as the FBI director!
In the dream, I was shown a particular special forces division in the U.S. military, along with its logo (one that I didn't even know of and one I will keep hidden). They announced that their mission was finished, and they even made a post in the dream, saying, "Game Over."
One of the things I immediately understood when I saw this was that the "operations" that we have been seeing unfold publicly were actually done long ago, and the phrase I heard in the dream was "It was over before it began."
I believe we are about to witness a public display of victories that were secretly achieved long ago! Yes, there will always be ongoing missions of importance, but I believe—according to this dream and even what took place yesterday—we have entered an era of apprehending the victories achieved before now. Like Sun Tzu said in The Art of War, "Victorious warriors win first, then go to war."
What does this mean for us? Get ready to watch a whole lot of winning! Get ready to watch evil men and works of the devil destroyed! Get ready for a sweeping move of justice! Get ready to witness the most incredible results of one of the greatest precision and secret military operations in the world!
This is not a word to stop praying, watching, and contending for America. It's a word to encourage us that our prayers have not gone unanswered! It's a word to encourage us that every giant is meant to fall. It's a word to help us get back the divine impetus to conquer evil with good! May our God receive all glory among the nations, in Jesus' name!
Salvation Has Come!
In a dream, I was at a prayer meeting with Lou Engle and others. I was asked by someone to pray and prophesy. I stood up and said, "I had a dream (which was a dream within the dream), and in the dream the Lord said, 'Salvation has come, and today is the day of salvation.'"
With that, I began to pray and prophesy, and I said, "Salvation has now come to America. Today is the day of salvation. America shall be saved! There is no one too far beyond His ability to save! We are going to witness the harvest of souls for the Kingdom as never before."
