Below is perhaps the most accurate prophetic word ( 5 years before this terrorist attack ) I have seen foretelling the events of the terrorist attack on New York City and Washington, D.C. Even so, it did not detail the date or the exact point of impact in New York City or Washington, D.C. --as I have come to believe now that it was NOT in God's plan to reveal the exact information before hand--for whatever reason.

These two important words (below) are through Kim Clement --a man I believe to be a true prophet of God. I do believe he has an hearing ear from the Lord regarding God's intentions for America.

You know, of course, that Prophets today know only "in part and prophesy in part." (I Corinthians 13:9). If you find a prophet who claims to always know God's answer for every single issue: personal, corporate, and for the nations-- you've found an out-of-balance prophet who only BELIEVES that all his words are from God. Prophets must be submitted to one another, and to other leaders. The expression, "no man is an island, no man stands alone," could have been written especially for prophets. No prophet knows it all. Not one.

I believe these two words by Kim Clement are from the Lord---but of course, they are "in part." Other prophets have revelation about and around these recent events, and intercessors have a major role to pray regarding it.

===================================

REGARDING PROPHECIES OF DESTRUCTION

===================================

I hold a FIRM conviction about prophecies of destruction. When God prophesied evil, we learn from the BIBLE'S GREATEST INTERCESSORS--they they didn't always accept it as a given fact. Remember Moses and Abraham (mentioned in the first article below). And remember Joel (from Joel chapter 2)? Who knows, says Joel, if people repent, that God won't leave behind a blessing instead of judgment. And finally Jonah. God cancelled judgment and brought revival instead of destruction. My firm conviction is that until or unless destruction of any nature comes, NO MATTER WHO PROPHESIES IT ----the CHURCH and the BODY must simply pray to prevent destruction . . . all destruction. And then leave the results to God.

We must stand in the gap. Period. End of story. The only exception is if the Lord specifically tells an individual NOT to pray against judgment. And that is far more rare than many believe it to be. We stand in the gap until the end is known-- whether for mercy or destruction.

I believe we must continually seek God's mercy so that more people will be saved, rather than destroyed and lost forever.

=================================

REGARDING KIM CLEMENT'S TWO WORDS

=================================

These two words by Kim Clement are:

1) IN DEFENSE OF THE GOD I LOVE --- WAS THIS JUDGMENT ON AMERICA?

2) WORD FROM 1996 ABOUT TERRORIST ATTACKS COMING.

I want to especially call those who read this second word to PRAY and ask the Lord to intervene wherever our country might consider taking action that is not "from the Lord" but also for the Lord to use "for the Good" any actions we take that are a mistake. This 1996 word by Kim Clement, given 5 years before this New York City/ Washington D.C. event says, among other things . . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kim Clement's 1996 prophecy:

"The Spirit of prophecy is in this building. I am shaking right now. "I am shaking this place. I am shaking your ground. I am shaking the earth. There has been a terrorist act and there will be another. For the Spirit of the Lord says, America will retaliate, but God says, even as they retaliate with natural weapons of war and they say, we will go the place of the east and we will go and we will bring them down for what they did to our people as they flew in the air, over Long Island. But the Spirit of the Lord says, another will take place, but I will prevent many deaths, because I will cause a security thing to happen so they will not die. I will look after you, America. But God says, the retaliation will not be right. It will not be of my Spirit. It will be a wrong decision, but God says the saints of the Lord, of the most high God, will begin to pray. And your God says, I will strike down the god of the east. I will bring something to pass very soon. I have told you about it. The very god of the east, the very king of the east, the very prince of the east. The one that waged a war against America. They spoke about the mother of wars. For God says, This is going to be the mother of wars as you have never seen. For the Spirit of God will rise up against the prince of the east, and He will bring him down." ---Kim Clement, July 25, 1996 FROM: http://www.kimclement.com/

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The above prophecy is the clearest I have seen that was pre-written before the recent terrorist events.

Now that the U.S. is preparing a response to the terrorist attack, Remember . .

. . . pray that the Lord's will be done and not man's. It's time to stand in the gap.

For your prophetic thoughts,

IN DEFENSE OF THE GOD I LOVE

September 18, 2001

by Kim Clement

From: http://www.kimclement.com/words/sept2001/judgment.htm

(Written September 18, one week after the events of September 11)

I don't agree with the many “prophets” who have made statements of doom about various cities, and even given dates and years, and they have not come to pass.

If God sends judgment upon a nation or city, and measures this judgment according to their GOOD or EVIL, then I would have to say that:

· The Eiffel Tower would be shattered into a million pieces and the inhabitants of Sodomic Paris, pillars of salt for the French Fries;

· Amsterdam would be the largest lake in the world;

· Rome would be burning while angels play their fiddles;

· The British Isles would be the "British Files";

· Frankfurt would be called "Frankfurter";

· Barcelona would be another fishing village.

The USA has unrighteousness and wickedness, as does every other NATION. However, there are millions of praying, righteous people, who have stood before the Lord and sought His face. Let us remember the fact that God ALSO takes into account the righteous acts of good people and rewards accordingly. America has unselfishly given billions of dollars to the poor and needy all over the world, fulfilling the commands of Jesus Christ.

They have sent missionaries into remote parts of the world and never given up on the poorest of nations.

Usually when God judged anyone in the Bible, it was His nation, or if you want, the Church. His prophets spoke to Judah, Jerusalem and Israel. The Church must take responsibility because the sinner has no clue about godliness. They sin without fear and only look to God when there is need. God does not manipulate men to love Him.

Fair enough, there are evil practices in the USA. Forget the Supreme Court. Their decision to rule out prayer in the schools actually promoted unselfish and sincere prayer from the hearts of young men and women. There is more prayer in the hearts of the students now than the repetitious prayers of religious teachers.

Wars happen. Not every war is as a result of sin or evil. Wars and attacks have happened throughout the history of mankind. Israel was attacked many times, in the Old Testament, for no reason, except a lurking enemy who was waiting for an opportunity to steal the glory of Israel. Goliath provoked the Israelites in order to "find a man". These stupid ‘boy-games’ have continued throughout the centuries. "I am stronger than you," they say. “Let us prove who is the strongest.” Yet it took a ‘David’, a young lad with a love for God, and a simple strategy to overcome this foe. (1Sam 17:1-58)

To say that God is judging the USA is not only a lie, but also proof of self-righteousness on the part of a sleeping, lazy, church. America is not as Israel of old. It has atheists, satanists and people who simply don't follow God. So when God addresses anyone, He addresses the Church, and the believers first.

The Church needs to repent; after all, "judgment begins in the house of God." (1 Peter 4:17)

1 Peter 4:17 “FOR THE TIME HAS COME FOR JUDGMENT TO BEGIN AT THE HOUSE OF GOD, AND IF IT BEGINS WITH US FIRST, WHAT WILL BE THE END OF THOSE WHO DO NOT OBEY THE GOSPEL OF GOD?”

Let me explain this:

The order of judgment begins with the Church. Once the Church is judged and has become the standard for judgment, only then is God justified in judging the wicked. The church today is most certainly not a righteous standard for God’s judgment.

Now, the USA has been struck and we say God has lifted His hand. So He gets the credit for bad events. Why do we always find a reason for an attack, war or death? Jesus said, "There shall be wars and rumors of wars." (Matt. 24:6)

I think we need to remind ourselves of an old saint who pleaded with God for two cities that were about to be burnt with fire - Sodom and Gomorrah. Instead of Abraham sitting self-righteously and declaring, "Go ahead, God, those ‘faggots’ deserve it!", he pleaded ON BEHALF OF THE RIGHTEOUS.

"SUPPOSE YOU FIND FIFTY GODLY PEOPLE THERE WITHIN THE CITY - WILL YOU DESTROY IT AND NOT SPARE IT FOR THEIR SAKES?” (Genesis 18:24)

“GOD SAID, ‘IF I FIND FIFTY GODLY PEOPLE THERE, I WILL SPARE THE ENTIRE CITY FOR THEIR SAKE.’ “ (Genesis 18:26)

ANOTHER FRIEND OF GOD, MOSES, STOOD IN GOD'S WAY WHEN HE WAS ABOUT TO WIPE OUT THE ‘HOLY NATION’, HIS PEOPLE.

“GOD SAID, ‘I HAVE SEEN WHAT A STUBBORN, REBELLIOUS LOT THESE PEOPLE ARE. NOW LET ME ALONE AND MY ANGER SHALL BLAZE OUT AGAINST THEM AND DESTROY THEM ALL, AND I WILL MAKE YOU, MOSES, INTO A GREAT NATION INSTEAD OF THEM.’ " (Exodus 32:9-10)

Moses. Knowing that this was uncharacteristic of God, stood in God’s way and declared these words:

“TURN BACK FROM YOUR FIERCE WRATH. TURN AWAY FROM THIS TERRIBLE EVIL YOU ARE PLANNING AGAINST YOUR PEOPLE. REMEMBER YOUR PROMISE TO YOUR SERVANTS - ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND ISRAEL.” (Exodus 32:12-13)

Our Prayer for America should be:

“GOD, REMEMBER YOUR PROMISE TO YOUR SERVANTS THOMAS JEFFERSON, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND GEORGE WASHINGTON”, instead of " LORD, SHOULD WE CALL FIRE FROM HEAVEN AND CONSUME THEM, LIKE ELIJAH DID?"

LUKE 9:54 56:

“And when the disciples, James and John, saw that they did not receive Jesus, they said, ‘Lord do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?’ BUT HE TURNED AND REBUKED THEM AND SAID, ‘YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT MANNER OF SPIRIT YOU ARE OF, FOR THE SON OF MAN DID NOT COME TO DESTROY MEN'S LIVES, BUT TO SAVE THEM.’ "

It seems that God gets upset with His people before the unbeliever because the believer should know better. The Church has been playing games these past years. Let's talk about the sin in the Church and with leaders before we make our hasty judgments against New York and the USA. Church, why aren't you praying the way you should be? You seem to be enjoying carousing, divorcing, spending, condemning, and judging one another? What do we expect the World to do? They look to us as the measuring stick.

Allow me to make this point: God regards the righteous in a Nation and rewards them accordingly.

It's so sad that every time something evil happens, we, the Church, bring God into the picture and misrepresent Him. Yet, when there is continuous prosperity and peace, happiness and life, we refuse to blame HIM!! America has enjoyed all of the above and then suddenly there is one act of terrorism and violence, and we play on this, hoping to get people to repent.

Oh yes! They will turn to God during this time, but it will be short lived if the Church does not immediately present a loving caring God and invite these people to enjoy His grace and favor.

Instead of constantly putting them in fear of this beautiful God whom I have served for these years, let’s also show them the side of God that they can relate to.

Do me a favor; Next time something good happens in the USA, like an economic revival, prosperity, a Godly president, a peace treaty, a surrender of an oppressive "walled" country, a cure for AIDS, the Disney company making a moral stand against violence and sex, a billionaire donating a billion dollars for starving countries, a rapid drop in unemployment, a scientific breakthrough or such, BLAME GOD! Maybe a few people will follow Him!

"GATHERING OF THE DANGEROUS" (Includes the prophecy about Terrorism)

By Kim Clement

July 25, 1996 FROM: http://www.kimclement.com/words/1996/detroit_july_1996.htm

"For tonight, the Spirit of the Lord says, many have said how will the Jews be saved? And many have said, what about Israel? And the Lord would speak to His people tonight and say, I'm about to take a trip to Israel. I'm about to take a trip to Israel. And I will take the Jews and fill them with my Spirit. This is the final hour. This is the final generation. I'm about to take a trip to Israel, and God says, I'm going to fill them with my Spirit. I'm going to fill them with my power, and they're going to tell the world that Jesus Christ is Lord of all. God said, I'm about to take a trip to Israel." For the Spirit of the Lord says, "You didn't think it was possible. And many of you said, Will Israel be saved through the blood of Christ? But I have prepared them for an end-time army. Do you think that we have warriors even now the Lord says? I will take the warriors that are potentially more dangerous that ever, that live right now in that land called the Holy Land. I will transform them, says the Lord. I will take them and fill them with my Spirit. And they will be so fervent in the praise of their Lord God. They will say that the Jehovah God that we serve now is the Jehovah God that they served then. And they will say, Jesus Christ is Lord - the Messiah, He has come. And they will be filled with my Spirit. I prophesy to you tonight, and God said it. I'm about to take a trip to Israel."

"I will even take the rabbi's, even take the people that are dressed in the cloaks and garments. They will come out and say there is only one Lord. His name is Jesus! It's Jesus! I will even allow my Spirit to baptize them in the very sanctuaries. I will even go into the temples, and I will fill them with my Spirit. And don't let anybody tell you that I cannot do it, says the Lord. I can go to the temple any time I like. I can go to the Jewish places anytime I like. I can go to Mount Zion any time I like. I will go wherever I want to."

"But that's not all! But that's not all! He says, I'm going to go way beyond and even go into the Christian Science church. I will go to the Scientologists. I will even go to the Jehovah Witnesses. And they will go from JW to JC in the house! For God says, I'll take the Jehovah Witnesses, the Christian Scientists, I will even take the psychics, and fill them with my Spirit. You know why? You know why, says the Lord? Because I'll go wherever I want. I'll go wherever I want. But listen - I'm about to take a trip to Israel."

And God says, "Don't you worry about a thing because history is in the making. Look at 1998. Look at the month of June. For God says, surprising events will take place and they will say, How is it possible that peace could take place? But God says that peace shall be short lived. However, there will be a revival that will be so powerful, that will be greater than the Jews have ever experienced before. And God says they will dance in the streets of Israel, they will dance in the streets of Israel. I'm about to take a trip to Israel."

"Poverty is about to take a turn from the church. There is a harvest coming in to the pastors and their churches. I prophesy many, many souls will be saved - many, many people will be filled with the Spirit - many, many people will be healed and delivered - many, many people will dance before the Lord - many, many people will come out of darkness - many, many people will be filled with the Spirit - many, many people will be healed and saved - many, many people. But He said, I'm about to take a trip to Israel."

"As you have prostrated yourself before me, and as I have seen those who have laid before me and prayed and cried out for the youth of this country, God says, I will bring them out of prisons and make them preachers. I will take them out of drugs and will cause them to be apostles. For the Lord says, I have seen you. I have taken those and thrust them to the ground, where they can go further no more, where they can go down no more. I cry for you, says the Lord, because there are many that have said, We don't know what God can do. How can He possibly do it? But the Lord says, Even as there has been those that have prostrated themselves before God, they are going to be raised up, and when I raise them up, they will be raised up as the most powerful warriors. Even though you may have been wounded, even though you may have fallen in the battle, even though you may have lost a leg, or you may have lost an arm, and you have crawled to safety. God says, I'm taking those wounded warriors, raising them up. I'm taking their bloody garments and I'm going to use them as fuel for fire. I'm, going to take you, says the Lord, and cause you to see the very face of the snake, you will see the face of the serpent. While you are down, you will recognize him, but when you get up, you will put your foot on the serpent's head that brought you down," says the Lord.

==========================================

The Spirit of prophecy is in this building. I am shaking right now. "I am shaking this place. I am shaking your ground. I am shaking the earth. There has been a terrorist act and there will be another. For the Spirit of the Lord says, America will retaliate, but God says, even as they retaliate with natural weapons of war and they say, we will go the place of the east and we will go and we will bring them down for what they did to our people as they flew in the air, over Long Island. But the Spirit of the Lord says, another will take place, but I will prevent many deaths, because I will cause a security thing to happen so they will not die. I will look after you, America. But God says, the retaliation will not be right. It will not be of my Spirit. It will be a wrong decision, but God says the saints of the Lord, of the most high God, will begin to pray. And your God says, I will strike down the god of the east. I will bring something to pass very soon. I have told you about it. The very god of the east, the very king of the east, the very prince of the east. The one that waged a war against America. They spoke about the mother of wars. For God says, This is going to be the mother of wars as you have never seen. For the Spirit of God will rise up against the prince of the east, and He will bring him down."

=========================================

"And God says, when He does, I will enter the Muslim countries and I will save their souls. I will bring salvation unto the soil of the Islamic countries. Did you hear what I said? It is drawing nigh, it is drawing nigh, it is drawing nigh, says the Lord. There is a betrayal amongst the princes of the east. There is a betrayal amongst the princes of the east. And God says, I will take the very sheiks and I will let them see the true God of Israel. And God says, listen to me. There will be a major death. It is coming nigh right now. But God says when this death occurs, there will be life that will be transferred from the very throne of God. And I will bring down the god of the east."

"And the Spirit of the Lord says, when that happens, there will be an invasion of my blood into the territories that would never be holy, but shall become holy. I will take the holy places which are actually unholy, and I will lift them up. I will declare, this is NOT holy. I will tear down the idols and their gods. I will tear down the spirits of Allah. I will take the lying spirits and break their power. And I will begin to save hundred of thousands of Islamic people. I will take them out and fill them with my Spirit and they will begin to preach. They will preach in the desert, and they will preach in the highways, in the desert ways. And God says, they will preach by the lakes and they will begin to tell people, and God says great amounts of riches and wealth shall be poured into the United States and America. And God says, by the end of this century, by the end of this millennium, I will take the economy of America and I will raise it up and it shall be a great prosperity that will be in this nation and God says, the poor will say, I am rich."
