Dutch Sheets Conversation With Chuck Pierce About the Coronavirus – Part 1
DUTCH: Recently, I sat down with Chuck Pierce to talk about what God is saying regarding the coronavirus COVID-19. Make sure, as you pray through the conversation over the next few days, you do not allow fear to enter into your heart, but rather, let faith arise in you. I'm always asking myself in times like this, "What is the enemy trying to do and what does the Lord want to do?" It's like what Joseph said to his brothers, "You meant it for evil, but God had a different purpose for it."
I've been feeling from the start, as far as God's part in it, that it's about the aligning of the nations for what is coming. I am not implying He is doing it. I know it is destructive, but God always has a higher plan than what the enemy has to bring His purposes to pass.
Many of you know by now that Chuck gave a word some months back pertaining to the coronavirus outbreak. So, here's some of what he was sensing and hearing. He's been seeking the Lord and will also be sharing some of what he's hearing now and going forward.
CHUCK: In the midst of the trial you (Dutch) have been going through physically, we know you'll come back stronger than you've ever been before. Probably by August of this year, we'll need your voice more than ever to step through into what God is saying to us. I was saying it before, but now I am seeing it. You've known me for years and I've lived on a timetable, which is a covenant timetable. I'm always looking for the Hebraic calendar for what's going on. It's not really around the calendar dates, but around the feast times, because the Lord always wants us to maintain a harvest mentality. Even in the midst of crisis, He wants us to maintain a harvest mentality so we can get back into increase. So, that's the real issue. How will we move back into increase? If we are all thinking that way, we are going to have some great strategies come forth from this time that I'm calling a "Divine Pause."
"Then David asked the LORD, 'Should I chase after this band of raiders? Will I catch them?' And the LORD told him, 'Yes, go after them. You will surely recover everything that was taken from you!'" (1 Samuel 30:8 NLT)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
• Ask the Lord to show you how to prepare your heart leading up to Passover.
• Ask Him to strengthen your heart to move through this next few weeks. (Photo via Wikimedia)
• Ask the Father to reveal to you how you will recover all and enter into the harvest season on the other side of this.
• Whether you are an intercessor, a prophet, an apostle, or other leader, say, "My voice needs to be heard! Prepare me, Lord."
• Declare, "Some great strategies are going to come forth from this 'Divine Pause' the Lord has put us in."
• Decree, "I will surely recover everything that was taken from me!"
A prayer you can pray:
Father, the enemy may have released this pestilence in the earth, but You are causing the Church to take advantage of it. You are going to prepare us for harvest. You are going to cause increase to come to us, individually and nationally. Is there something You would like me to do to get ready? How does my heart look to You? Am I fearful, doubting, or untrusting in any way? Is there any place where my heart is not pure or not wholly Yours? Where is Jesus not fully reigning in my life? Where I am experiencing losses? Show me how to recover all and increase.
Just like David did, I ask You, "Will I catch the enemy and recover what he has stolen from me and my family?" Tell me what to do and how to overcome. This is a perfect opportunity. Let's show the unbelievers who You are. Let them see You through my life. Make my voice heard! Let me open my mouth and testify. Reveal those strategies to me during this Divine Pause that I will need to recover loss and enter into increase. With them, I will surely recover everything that was taken from me! Thank You, Jesus, my Provider. Amen.
Decree: God will show us how to harvest as we embrace His Divine Pause.
Dutch Sheets Conversation With Chuck Pierce About the Coronavirus – Part 2
CHUCK: The Lord had to put the world in some Shabbat form. I call it "A Divine Pause." That's how intercession works. God is saying, "We have to get some things in order, so we have a greater strength going forward in days ahead."
Let me back up and say that last January I asked the Lord what He was saying for 2019. He said, "Plow through." So, Dutch, you and I gathered in about 26 different places across America to really encourage God's Kingdom people, His watchmen, intercessors, prophets, and apostles to rise up and start watching in a new way. This was especially for this year we are presently in. For you who don't know, Dutch made it all the way through that journey until the last meeting. It was a great toll to plow up some things that needed to be plowed up. As we ended that tour, Dutch had to have some sort of rest. That's what happens when we plow hard. We need to end in rest.
Since we plowed all year, where are we now? Robert Heidler and I wrote a book called A Triumphant Kingdom. This is about how the apostolic Church is rising up, not the mega-church.
Let me go back to August of last year when I started hearing what the Lord was saying for this new era. By September, we were entering into this new era of revelation. At Rosh Hashanah, which was in September 2019, we were crossing over into new revelation. This is the first month of the year on the Hebraic calendar, and God's dearest month of the year, where He calls us to break old cycles. He calls us to enter into what He is announcing for the future.
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
• Worship the Lord and thank Him for this 'Divine Pause' we are in!
• Today, ask if there are any other things you need to get in order to move forward in days ahead. (Photo via Unsplash)
• Read Hebrews 4. Have you learned to enter His rest? Consider the last era as over, your last assignment finished, and ask for the grace to do so.
• Ask the Lord to show you what resources you, specifically, need to get prepared for your assignment in the new era.
• Declare, "Old cycles are broken in my life and I am moving into the new!"
• Decree, "Old cycles are breaking over America! This nation is moving into the new!"
A prayer you can pray:
Lord, we worship You! We exalt Your holy name! Jesus, You are the entire focus of our lives. You are all that we need. You are everything. You have moved our entire nation, saved and unsaved, into a Divine Pause. We have never been this way before, but the prophets are telling us this is a very necessary season of rest. Therefore, we will embrace it. We will enter Your Hebrews 4 rest of God, individually, and corporately. We consider everything we have been doing to be in a holy reset. We may move on in similar assignments, but if we do, they will not be the same. Something will be different. Old cycles are breaking. The familiar is breaking. Habits and addictions are breaking. Things will be seen clearly. Nothing will be quite the same.
Show us what resources each of us needs to help us prepare to move forward. Give us revelation and understanding, wisdom and grace. We will each say, "Old cycles are broken in my life and I am moving into the new!" We decree, "Old cycles are breaking over America! This nation is moving into the new!"
Decree: In the "Divine Pause" we will watch and pray and learn, and get ready to move into the new era.
Dutch Sheets Conversation With Chuck Pierce About the Coronavirus – Part 3
CHUCK: Prophetic revelation for the year begins at Rosh Hashanah. In 2019, we started looking at the number 80, because in Hebrew, it's the year 5780. I also started looking at 2020. I could see that it would be important that the two were aligned together. This would be important like never before, because this was going to be the year where the Lord started dividing the nation. He was also going to be looking at each nation and how they were responding to Him. He's going to say, "This nation is really responding to Me, but this one is rejecting Me more than it has ever rejected Me." I think the Lord has answered your prayers, Dutch. I see this nation responding to Him.
America is responding to God. Therefore, the division is getting longer and wider, and people can look and clearly see the division between the two factions that are in this nation. Righteousness seems to be rising.
DUTCH: I see exactly that. I have been encouraging people that everything has shifted. In this new era we're moving into, it has become clear to me that God has raised up a remnant of intercessors. He has raised them to a very high level of maturity. What the maturity in the prayer movement and in the prophetic movement has produced is that we are seeing the nation turn now.
There were things that took place before now – the Russia controversy and the impeachment process. As unhealthy as that all was for the nation and the president, all of that was drawing this line that has become a clear line of demarcation. People are starting to understand. We have been able to see where Believers stand. Now, we have this whole other segment of the population that is so tired of the direction we've been going. They're ready for change. Some don't even know what that change needs to be. I don't even think our president knows what that would look like, even though he's always trumpeting change.
"If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. And if satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end." (Mark 3:24-26 ESV)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
• Worship the Lord for His wisdom and revelation.
• Ask the Lord to give You His Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation. We must have an Issachar anointing to understand the time and the season we are in. (Photo via Flickr)
• Do you understand that the Lord is dividing, sifting and sorting in many arenas right now? You see it, but did you know it was Him?
• Are you seeing what He needs you to see in the division?
• Proclaim Mark 3:24-26 over America, "A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. A house divided against itself is not able to stand. Satan has risen up against himself and is divided. He cannot stand and is coming to an end!"
A prayer you can pray:
Father, You are the only wise One. You are the all-sufficient One. You know the end from the beginning. Your Holy Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation can be imparted to those who have made Christ their Lord and Savior. We need the anointing that rested on the tribe of Issachar, who knew the times and epochs. Therefore, we can participate with You more fully and accurately, as You shift us into this new era.
One thing we need to see is how You are involved in dividing our nation. You are allowing us to see the division clearly, because America as a nation is primarily choosing You and Your ways. Thank You, Lord. Show us how to intercede into this, so the nation reaps maximum benefit from it and can continue forward. We proclaim Mark 3:24-26 over America: "A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. A house divided against itself is not able to stand. Satan has risen up against himself and is divided. He cannot stand and is coming to an end!" In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
Decree: The nation is dividing, so we can clearly see.
Dutch Sheets Conversation With Chuck Pierce About the Coronavirus – Part 4
DUTCH: God is setting the stage for what is coming. I have been telling people that this is not just for America. I know that what God is doing here is not just for here. I run with people like you, Chuck, who are called primarily to the nations. So, I know that what God is doing in America is directly linked in His heart and mind with what is happening in the nations of the earth. And, what is on His mind is the harvest. We can't lose sight of the forest for the trees. We can't get so focused on this crisis, that we, as Believers, are not able to step back and ask what God is doing in His big picture.
CHUCK: Well, all you have to do is look at statistics and see we have had a lot worse crisis in the past. We've had a lot worse flus. We've had a lot worse issues. I think the thing about this is the unknown capability of it. It is not knowing how it will progress that is changing the course of the world. God is taking this and causing nations to re-evaluate how they operate.
Let's talk about the nations. You always have such a good understanding of what God is doing in the nation and I have always gone to the nations. I have been called to many, but to a few of them especially, like to China and Russia. I have a lot of background and history of what's happening there.
Last year in September at Rosh Hashanah, I was looking at what 80 is about. 80 is about our voice. It's about breath. Look at what the crisis is over – voice and breath. It's happening worldwide. How will the voice and the breath of God enter into nations?
I have a long history of praying for China. I have already been there 3 times this year, meeting with various leaders who help the Church advance in China. In 1986, the Lord showed me China in 10-year increments. He said something then that has never left me, "Starting in 2020, China makes its biggest move toward economic domination worldwide." A watchman would then start watching China in September 2019. How are they going to make that economic move?
"...One is calling to me from Seir, 'Watchman, what time of the night? Watchman, what time of the night?' The watchman says: 'Morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire; come back again.'" (Isaiah 21:11-12 ESV)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
• Consider the wisdom of God. Ponder this: His ways are not our ways; His ways are higher than ours. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding (Proverbs 2:6). (Photo via Pixabay)
• God wants us to watch. He wants us to see. He wants us to intercede. Choose to be the one standing on the wall, jumping in the gap. Inquire of the Lord.
• Shut down media today and worship for an hour or two. Put on your favorite instrumental worship music, get your Bible, sit still, and listen.
• Say what you hear or what the Lord shows you.
• Intercede for the U.S. economy and how it is related to other nations of the earth.
• Intercede for the economic relationship between the U.S. and China.
A prayer you can pray:
Lord, You are wisdom. You are the Author of knowledge and understanding. You have placed things in the earth designed for us to discover and to search out. We must process things we are pondering with Your Holy Spirit, or the enemy will take the knowledge and twist it and use it for his own destructive ends. Lead us, Lord, and teach us. We will inquire of You. We will watch. We will pray. We will proclaim what You put in our hearts and mouths to declare, even when we don't understand and can't comprehend. Lord, we will set time apart for You in this quiet season. We will find the time to shut ourselves in with You, because we are in unique days. We have not been this way before. We want to know what things are shifting in the earth. We want to know You more, hear Your voice, see what You want us to see in Your Word, and declare what You want us to declare.
We are in a global economy and the economies of nations are shaking. Everything has gone into lockdown and whole industries are suffering. Some may never recover. Some will not look the same. Look how quickly something beginning in one country has affected the whole earth. Look how quickly the governments of the earth moved to protect the people's lives, but look at what has happened to their livelihoods. What is China's role in all of this? Show us how to pray for our economic relationship with China. What will it look like on the other side, Lord? How shall we pray? How shall we position ourselves to make it through? How do we position ourselves to reap the harvest? We look to You, Jesus. Amen.
Decree: Let the watchmen arise. Watch and pray, see and understand what the Spirit is saying to the Church.
