The Origin
Dressing up in costumes, handing out candy and carving jack-o-lanterns may seem like an innocent tradition, but Halloween’s roots come from a dark, ancient, pagan festival. Now, ex-witch Jenny Weaver who is being used powerfully by God is warning Christians about the spiritual danger of participating in Halloween.
Originally called “Samhain,” Oct. 31 marked the summer’s end and fall’s beginning. Many believed it was a day where the veil between the living and the dead was so thin people could cross through.
“It’s all steeped in demonic rituals,” Weaver says. People in Northern Europe would dress up in costumes to disguise themselves as one of the spirits rising from the dead to protect their families from what they thought was lurking between the veil.
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, “The stirring up of the waters and those at sea has begun. Why do the nations rage and the people plot a vain thing? I, the Lord thy God, shall hold them in derision as the nations plot and attempt to usurp at sea. However, I, the Lord God, shall break up the agreement of those who have made unholy, dark covenants with each other—their gods making agreements in the air and in the sea in order to attempt to stop what I, the Lord, am doing in the nations.
An Arab Spring
“An ‘Arab Spring,’” says the Lord. “However, it shall be in other nations as well, as the pressure has mounted to a boiling point and the people of the nations of the east are restless,” says the Lord. “The people of South America are restless,” says the Lord. “The people of Canada are restless,” says the Lord. “The people of the United States of America are becoming further discontented,” says the Lord.
Exposure of Underhanded Agreements
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, “An explosion in China—massive—targeting a certain area of their government, as the underhanded agreements they have made with those in the Middle East have created a tunnel to funnel much, including technology and battle prints that have been stolen through espionage,” says the Lord.
In the early morning of October 1, 2022, I went into a vision. I saw myself standing and behind me stood an angel. I was looking at the scene from the outside in, as if watching a movie.
As I performed my daily activities in the vision, I was completely unaware of his presence, but he was completely concentrated on my every move and every word that came out of my mouth.
A Dark Winter Shall Be Thwarted
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, “The enemy is plotting around the solstices. A dark winter shall be thwarted as the leadership of your nation gets another leg knocked out from under them,” says the Lord.
I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, “The camels, forming caravans loaded with blessing and provision, have been dispatched. Look for them with great expectation, for they carry the key to your next season. I have seen how My children have endured seasons of great loss, disappointment, and heartbreak, but that season has changed, and the camels are here. Tell My people to prepare themselves, for I will demonstrate My resurrection power by bringing life to dead promises. I have commissioned a Genesis 24 release over My sons and daughters. Tell them to declare, ‘The camels are here.’”
As the Lord spoke this to me, I quickly began to study Genesis 24. The chapter started by describing Abraham as old and how the Lord had been faithful, blessing him in every way (Gen. 24:1). There was only one thing Abraham lacked: a bride for his son Isaac.
Abraham called for his head servant to help him find Isaac’s wife. Abraham had him take an oath that he would not allow Isaac to marry one of the local Canaanite women. He instructed his servant to go to his homeland among his relatives and to find a bride for Isaac.
“Watch and see,” says the Spirit of God, “if I do not raise up an unheard-of company at this hour. Those touched by My power while running from My presence are being brought out of the wilderness for such a time as this.”
I hear the Spirit of the Lord say, “You can run but you can’t hide. I have chosen you from your mother’s womb, to carry My power in a time when My power, made perfect in weakness, has anointed you out of the crowd. Because you said YES in the days of your youth, My Spirit has rested upon you to awaken the nations.
“This is a time,” says the Spirit of grace, “when the labels of man and those seated in high places will encounter the surprise of their life. When I said, ‘The first will be last and the last will be first,’ I created an order for establishing My kingdom. A little here and a little there, you have believed in Me. But now I say to you, that My power prodigals are catching the fire of My presence. These men and women of God have a story to tell of the fire in their bones quaking them awake at this hour.
