Prophecies I feel Abba has given me re the U.S.

I'm afraid I don't have anything very positive to say about what I feel Abba is telling me about the U.S. and it's future. Sorry.
One of the first times I got a prophecy specifically re this country was about a month before 9-11. Two times in the mornings, while I lay between waking and sleeping, I felt the Father told me, "Terrible things are coming to America." In my mind's eye I saw some awful things in the future (though I could not tell any timeline). Famine was one. The use of young girls as sex slaves for money was another.
The Friday before 9-11 the Father brought me the word "Tuesday." (9-11 was on Tuesday in case you don't remember.) I thought He was speaking to me about something in my personal life and kept saying, "Lord, I don't see how Tuesday is going to be any different than any other day."
The Saturday before 9-11 I was out riding my bike. I asked a man for directions to a certain street. The man was dressed like any suburbanite, very trim and neat. But he was obviously part middle eastern and - apparently - part Caucasian. He had an accent I did not recognize. For reasons I did not even reflect on, I decided he was an Arab.
As I pulled away from him on my bike I was very surprised to feel the Father showing me what he was thinking, or rather, feeling. He was feeling sorry for Americans and America for what was going to happen - though I was clueless as to what that event might be.
Now I was not connecting the dots in these experiences yet. When I got home I prayed and asked Abba if my experience with the Arab (?) was just my imagination. I also prayed for America's safety, though I don't think with much strength, for it was hard at that time to imagine what kind of danger there might be. (Back then we were - still are to a great extent - so naive.)
The Father never answered my questions, apparently because he knew I would figure it out soon enough.
Within a week after 9-11 I felt He showed me that gas was going to be a problem. This took quite some months to bear out. Now, gas has been going down lately and that trend may continue, but I personally have felt that He has said this is only temporarly and that gas prices will one day in the not very distant years ahead go up far, far more. He also said Medicare is going to go away, the country will be divided into "haves and have nots" and etc.
In fact, I feel there are only several years left for us to get ourselves in good shape finanically, and be like Joseph, prepared for the coming terrible times.
I believe we all need to take seriously, individually if not as a nation:
"If my people who are called by my Name will humble themselves and seek
My face and pray, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven and forgive their sins and heal their lands."
I personally have tended to think in terms of others'
"bigger" sins with this verse, sins like abortion, homosexualty and so on. But YHWH keeps dealing with me about my own sins, and how they may not seem as big to me, but are just as serious to Him. I haven't had some of the horribly abusive, or mind twisting experiences some have experienced. I know Scriptures. "Much is expected from him to whom much is given."
"The prayers of a righteous man avail much" and we are going to be needing all the prayer power we have in the not too far off years ahead.
As someone said on a recent radio news show, those in government are not asking if another 9-11 will happen, but when it will happen.
So, what is a righteous man (or woman, of course) like? I used to think in terms of dos and don'ts. They are important, I know. But never nearly enough to transform our lives supernaturally. Of course a righteous person is waking the love walk I now see. I have felt the Father showing me in my heart, where it counts, that we need to get into what I call "the Love Bubble." It is an invisble but invincible surrounding of agape Love that we can live and move and have our being in. There is that place - I am just taking baby steps in learning how to get into it and stay into it myself - where we enter into His Presence so much that we want to be good about the dos an don'ts because we love Him so much we want to obey Him, not just because we fear Him - or want something from Him.
In the Love Bubble we truly are more concerned for others' welfare than our own. In the Love Bubble we live a life of paradoxes. While being more concerned with loving others than getting their love, so often their hearts are warmed toward us and they love us like never before. While wanting to please the Father just because we love Him, we find more fulfillment in life than ever we would have guessed we could have had. In the Love Bubble we get the greatest protections and mercies for ourselves, and for those we pray for. This I feel Abba has shown me, too, and I believe that He has shown me that it is through praise - especially but not only through Scripture-based praises - that we draw closer and closer to Him Who IS Love.
And He wants us praising Him all the time. All the time, day and night, around the clock. "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." This is our primary weapon for these last days, I believe, praise that leads us into the Presence of our Heavenly Father and causes us to have the "Love Bubble" walk. "He who keeps his mind stayed on Me I will keep in perfect peace."
Oh...and something else I feel the Father has shown me. It is not wisdom to complain too much about this government - and certainly not to try to fight it (though of course we can vote and respectfully go through regular legal channels especially as He leads, to try to redress wrongs) now or in the future. Whether anyone likes it or not, they have been given authority, just as Scriptures show us. We are not to fear this government, or any government really, either. The One we are to fear is first and foremost and only the Almighty Creator.
It is not any deficiencies of those in power that He wants us primarily concerned with. No, it is our own deficiencies, and He will be only too happy to help us see them and get rid of them if we will but let Him.
