WARNING: David Wilkerson’s Prophecy for the United States Changes Everything
In the 1970s, pastor and prophet David Wilkerson issued a chilling warning about America’s future—a warning ignored for decades, but now eerily coming to pass.
Wilkerson foresaw a spiritual fall, violence in the streets, cold churches, financial collapse, natural disasters, and growing persecution of Christians. His message was not about fear, but truth and preparation.

Wilkerson was known for his deep faith and compassion, reaching out to gang members and addicts in New York City, as told in his book *The Cross and the Switchblade*. But he also received prophetic visions that shook those who listened.
In 1973, during prayer and fasting, Wilkerson felt the Holy Spirit reveal a coming storm—one that would begin in the United States and shake the world.
He published these visions in *The Vision*, describing cities in flames, chaos in the streets, and churches abandoned. At the time, America was prosperous and few believed such collapse was possible. Yet, Wilkerson stood firm, warning that judgment would come if the nation turned away from God.
Decades later, his prophecy began to unfold. He predicted a plague that would shut down bars, churches, and government—a scenario realized during the COVID-19 pandemic. Suddenly, worship services stopped, businesses collapsed, and cities grew silent. Those who mocked Wilkerson’s warnings watched in disbelief as his words became reality.

But the prophecy went deeper. Wilkerson saw churches growing cold, preachers afraid to confront sin, and messages that comforted rather than challenged. Truth would be traded for convenience, and many would lose interest in God’s word. This spiritual emptiness would open the door to greater destruction.
He described violent protests, fires, and police overwhelmed—scenes now familiar in recent years. Wilkerson warned this was not just political unrest, but a spiritual and moral collapse. The chaos in the streets reflected the chaos in hearts that had turned from God.
Among the most startling parts of his prophecy was a coming financial collapse. Wilkerson saw banks closing, businesses failing, and fear gripping millions as their savings vanished. The 2008 financial crisis echoed his warnings, but he predicted an even deeper collapse to come, tied to spiritual rebellion and national debt.
Wilkerson also warned that churches would fall silent, choosing comfort over courage. Pastors would avoid preaching righteousness, and sermons would focus on self-help and prosperity rather than repentance and salvation. This silence, he said, would be deadly, as the nation lost its conscience.

Persecution of Christians would increase, not just from the world, but within communities and families. Laws and public pressure would label believers as intolerant, ministries would be shut down, and many would fall away. Yet, Wilkerson promised a special grace for those who remained faithful—a remnant who would stand firm in the fire.
He foresaw a wave of corruption rising within the church, with false teachers preaching a gospel of wealth and comfort, leading many astray. Yet, God would raise up humble, sincere leaders to preserve His people.
Despite these warnings, Wilkerson’s prophecy ended with hope. After judgment and shaking, he saw a great spiritual awakening—a revival built on repentance and holiness. Ordinary believers would become lights in the darkness, leading others to truth and salvation.
Wilkerson’s final vision was of a sudden, shocking event that would force America to face eternal questions. In that moment, only those rooted in Christ would stand firm and shine. His message remains urgent: Turn back to God, seek repentance, and prepare for the days ahead. Judgment may come, but so can revival—and there is still hope for America.
