Is Donald Trump God's David? The false prophecies of Julie Green

I have written several times about the supposed prophetess Julie Green.1. She is a part of MAGA, The New Apostolic Reformation movement and always a guest of the Reawaken Tour led by Clay Clark, Michael Flynn and Eric Trump, son of Ex president Donald Trump. I am writing about her again because I recently realized that she is blaspheming in her prophecies when she speaks of Donald Trump. It is supposedly God speaking through her, almost every day, and “he” refers to Trump as “my David and my son.” 

 But except for the ancient biblical King of Israel, the only biblical references to the David who is the son of king David are references to the coming Messiah who is the only begotten Son of God, Jesus the Christ. In the New Testament Jesus is always seen as fulfillment of the prophecies relating to king David’s Son and his kingdom. For instance, Peter in his first sermon after Pentecost spoke of David and his Son: 

Brethren, I may confidently say to you regarding the patriarch David that he both died and was buried and his tomb is with us to this day. And so, because he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one of his descendants on his throne, he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of the Christ, that he neither abandoned to Hades, nor did His flesh suffer decay. This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are all witnesses (Acts 3:29-32). 

 And when the Apostles meet to discuss the right of Gentiles to become a part of the Church without being circumcised James refers to the Tabernacle of David and how it is being rebuilt and open to the Gentiles (Acts 15:13-19). Blind Bartimaeus refers to Jesus as Son of David, (Mark 10) and in Matthew 10 the children are shouting in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David.” Even the Pharisees admitted to Jesus that the Christ was the Son of David, (Mark 22: 42). 

To call Donald Trump God’s David as well as his son is blasphemy. Trump may be a son by adoption if he has repented and trusted in Christ as his savior, but he can be a son in no other way. And he can never be God’s David that is a title reserved for the only begotten Son of God, the Messiah.

 There is a kingdom coming, and a King coming who already rules his people, Jesus Christ. It is not a worldly kingdom, but a heavenly kingdom that is coming to a new earth. He will wipe away our tears, cancel our fears and rule in righteousness. He has suffered for His people, died for His people, given life through His resurrection—to all who cling to Him—Jesus is Lord.
