THE DEATH OF THE AMERICAN EAGLE

March 27, 2006

A vision was given to a servant of God on March 27, 2006.

I found myself in a large, old dusty building that looked like a barn.  The ceiling of the building was comprised of huge beams crisscrossing into rafters.  I realized this was an auction house; like one you might find selling antiques out on a country road.

There were chairs set up in rows facing a low counter at the back of the building.  Behind the counter was an old couple.  The lady was sitting at a computer, as they both chatted back and forth much like you see on a home shopping channel on television.  As they began each auction, the lady would type the information into the computer and a picture of the item and description would appear on a huge movie screen.  Then the man would start the bidding.

At that point, Pastor Nunez walked into the building.  He had, slung over his shoulder, a rope tied in a loop.  On the rope were the carcasses of dead animals.  He was excited and told me he had just returned from hunting.  He first showed me a huge, black rat, easily 3 feet long with the tail.  He told me that I didn’t need to be afraid of it any longer because he had killed it.  And although I was disgusted by it, I realized that I needn’t be afraid.

Next, he showed me an eagle.  It was a bald eagle, but much smaller than I imagined an eagle would be.  It was more the size of a pigeon.  He then took me up to the counter.  Behind the counter were six small television screens.  On each screen were scenes of devastation. 

He pointed to one screen that showed people in a Latin American country with maimed bodies and babies with deformities.  These people were made sick from contamination from mining and drilling that the United States had done in their country without proper safeguards.  After pillaging their country, these American companies just packed up and left the people sick and dying.

On another screen were pictures of men in the military service who were physically ill from experiments that had been performed on them by their own country.  Then when these men would ask for medical help, they would be told that their symptoms were all in their heads.

Just then the auctioneer and his assistant began chatting about the next item up for bid.  I looked up on the movie screen and I saw a huge American eagle.  I then realized that the eagle wasn’t pictured on the screen; it was actually there in the room.  The eagle was obviously dead, but its eyes were still open.  It was suspended from the rafters and beams of that old, dusty auction house.  The eagle’s massive wingspan (at least 50 feet) covered the distance of the entire house and the wings were nailed to the beam that went across.

The auctioneer and his assistant were bantering back and forth about the great price of the item up for bid, noting anyone would be lucky to get the eagle for such a low price.  Then the auctioneer said loudly, ‘Let’s start the bidding’.  As I looked I saw that the eagle was posed symbolically like Jesus’ crucifixion.   A bloodstained American flag was draped over it like a loincloth.  The eagle had been deeply wounded on its side and blood poured out of the wound onto the flag.   I noticed that there was a rifle slung across the eagle’s back.  So whatever killed the eagle, it didn’t have a chance to fire even one shot in defense.

Pastor Nunez then began to interpret what I was seeing.

The black rat was the spirit of a generational curse on my family.  Because of my relationship with God and the Pastor, that curse had been broken in me.

Pastor Nunez began to remind me of scripture found in Daniel 7:3-4:

3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. 4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

Pastor Nunez then told me that the small eagle I had seen represented one of the eagle’s wings that were plucked from the lion.  One plucked wing is the small eagle representing France and its sitting global leader.  The other plucked wing is the great eagle representing America. 

Then I realized that the great American eagle had been killed to avenge the evils that it had done to people around the world and here in its own country.  This eagle had wrought devastation everywhere it went, leaving people sick, dying and dead in its wake; and offered nothing in return.  The eagle had attacked its own military and had performed heinous experiments on its citizens; never acknowledging its complicity or responsibility.

And now the American eagle’s dead carcass was being auctioned off to the highest bidder.
