Intro from Cheryl Amabile: Can a nation be saved in a day? If so, it would be on the Day of Atonement. This is the one day of the year that the Jewish high priest could enter the Holy of Holies to atone for the sin of the nation. When Christ came as our great High Priest, He entered the Most Holy Place once and for all, not by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption (Hebrews 9).
During this year's Day of Atonement (October 12, 2024), God is assembling a remnant of His global priesthood in Washington, D.C. for the redemption of America. We will repent for the sin of our nation(s), partake of the Lord's Supper, and enforce the atomic power of His blood over spiritual rulers in heavenly places.
Today's Briefing unveils key prophetic dreams that the Holy Spirit has given to prepare us for this significant day. We urge you to read and share this revelation with all who wish to join us in the courts of Heaven.
Changing Times and Seasons
"...Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever; wisdom and power are His. He changes times and seasons; He deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning." (Daniel 2:20–21)
"...I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day." (Zechariah 3:9)
The prophet Daniel encountered the Lord as the one who sets times and seasons (Daniel 2:21). He was also shown how the enemy tries to change the times by changing laws and oppressing God's people. Welcome to 21st Century America!
As we approach the A Million Women gathering on October 12, 2024, God is summoning us, not just to the National Mall in Washington, D.C. but to a heavenly court case.
In recent decades, as wickedness has encroached upon this generation, there have been a number of strategic, solemn assemblies in our nation's capital and across the land. We believe we've now come to a culminating court case, as in Daniel chapter 7, where a verdict will be released concerning America.
Through all that the Holy Spirit has been revealing to us prophetically and through His Word, we are overwhelmingly convinced that the Judge of the earth desires to issue a judgment in favor of the saints (Daniel 7:22). But a question still remains, as Jesus inquired in Luke 18:8, "...when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"
Chris Berglund recently had a dream in which those of us who were joining to pray on October 12th were invited to attend a "Time and Navigation class."

The Double-Edged Sword Divides the Tree of Life from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
In the dream, we were walking up to two buildings: the first one was the State Department and the second was an event center. Many people were walking right past the first building to get to the second one to make plans for the event. Yet, those who were discerning knew that we needed to go into the State Department in order for the gathering to be successful.
As we walked into the State Department building, the person at the door directed everyone to pass through a scanner. Its function was to make sure there were no foreign toxins in the body. The scanner identified these toxins and then we proceeded to walk into various classrooms.
There were seven rooms associated with the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3. Chris saw that over the door of each classroom was written a phrase that identified a specific manifestation of Jesus from each address to the churches. He remembered seeing "He who has a double-edged sword" over one door. Over another was written "He whose eyes are a blazing fire."
We walked into one of the classrooms to hear the instructor who said, "This is the room where the double-edged sword divides the Tree of Life from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil." He went on to explain, "The State Department focuses on the state of being, the state of mind." He continued, "The state of being will manifest the event."
Each class began with us taking communion. As we ate the bread and drank the wine, our eyes were opened to see the Lord as He was reflected in these passages. Chris understood that we needed to overcome the same challenges as the seven churches, but the way to do so was to behold the Lord as He distinctly revealed Himself in each letter.
Earlier in the dream, the foreign toxins were also to be identified. The Holy Spirit wants to purge us of any bitterness, anxiety, shame, and other attitudes of the heart and mind that are foreign to His nature. As we focus on the revelation of Jesus, His character will become manifest in and through us. (Photo via Unsplash)
The Psalm 82 Dimension
In another dream, Chris saw a parking lot in Washington, D.C. It was reserved for Psalm 82. Those of us attending A Million Women were parked there, but not everyone was being given access to the Psalm 82 dimension. This psalm describes how God presides in the great assembly. He renders judgment, along with His sons, over rulers who are perpetuating injustice in the spiritual realm and on the earth.
"Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance." (Psalm 82:8)
In the dream, there was a guy (who seemed to be an angel) handing out tickets to those who didn't have the right permits. When Chris asked him why he was giving each ticket, he responded, "This person made a theology out of their failures." For the next car he said, "This one didn't put the Lord in remembrance." Chris knew this was a specific reference to Isaiah 43.
"I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins. Put Me in remembrance; let us contend together;
State your case, that you may be acquitted." (Isaiah 43:25–26)
For another ticket the man explained, "This person had a theology of separation above oneness." Chris understood that the angel was addressing a mindset of viewing oneself as separate from God. A theology of separation causes us to think in terms of doing things for God, whereas a revelation of our union with God acknowledges the reality of Him living His life through us.
Then the man explained one more violation, saying, "This one didn't understand witnesses." Chris instantly knew in the dream that when God called us "His witnesses" in Isaiah 43:10, He was referencing our judicial role. This was not about being spectators but about being witnesses who are called to testify in the courtroom of Heaven.
It was clear to Chris that these dreams were not given as a rebuke but as exhortation to gird us up in our most holy faith. We want to be those who have access to the spiritual realities of Psalm 82 and are not hindered by unbelief or false humility. When we state our case on the Day of Atonement, we will readily acknowledge our national guilt. However, the blood of Jesus is more than sufficient to cancel the power of our sin and to judge the principalities that have taken dominion as a result of our sin. It is important, however, that we enter into the roles that we have been commissioned to play in the heavenly realms. (Photo via Pexels)
Destiny always proceeds from our identity. On the one hand, we are intercessory priests identifying with the guilt of our people. At the same time, we are also co-rulers with Christ, standing in His righteousness and rising to judge the powers of darkness. When we fulfill these two aspects of Christ's nature in us, we enter into a greater manifestation of the Melchizedek order. This is the priesthood described in Psalm 110 and the book of Hebrews, of which Jesus has been forever designated as High Priest.
Governing over Time
This brings us to one more dream that we received about governing over time. It involved a crossword puzzle (emphasis on the "cross"). In the answer section of the puzzle book were circled three names of those in the Bible who actually changed times and seasons: Joshua, Hezekiah, and Mary. It was understood in the dream that we were also destined to be listed among these three.
We know from the Scriptures that when Joshua commanded the sun and moon to stand still, the Lord listened, and the day was halted (Joshua 10). In response to Hezekiah's prayer, God turned back the clock and added fifteen years to his life (2 Kings 20). What we know about Mary is that Jesus' time had not yet come until her interaction with Him at the wedding in Cana (John 2).
It occurred to us that if these individuals carried that much influence under an inferior covenant, then how much more should we expect it of ourselves as new covenant Believers? Truly, it comes down to us knowing Christ crucified and Christ unified with us.
"Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world." (1 John 4:17)
