Amanda Grace, a self-proclaimed “prophet” and fervent supporter of former President Donald Trump, made a new prediction about the Trump family’s enemies in a recent interview with Eric Trump, stating that God will hand down divine “verdicts” against them.
Grace frequently shares messages, which she says God sends to her, in videos and live events posted on the streaming channel for her Ark of Grace Ministries. According to the ministry’s website, it provides “biblical prophecy and teaching online and during live events.”
In a live streaming event on Friday on YouTube, Grace spoke with Eric Trump and Clay Clark, who launched the ReAwaken America Tour, a far-right and Christian nationalist movement, in which she told Eric Trump that within the next 24 hours, God will hand down divine “verdicts” against the Trump family’s enemies.
“I will tell you this, in the next 24 hours is Yom Kippur and the Lord does bring verdicts down in his court. I am telling you this because I feel it and Clay knows I don’t say anything unless I know it’s coming from the Lord. Your enemies that have done this, those verdicts are coming down on Yom Kippur in these next 24 hours against them,” Grace said. “God is bringing those verdicts down…and your enemies has done this to you. These verdicts against them are going to come down on scrolls.”
In response, Eric Trump can simply be heard saying, “Yeah.”
It is unclear who Grace was referring to when speaking about these “enemies.”
Before Grace’s remarks, Eric Trump said, “Every dark day, a light has come through and his [God’s] hand has been on my father and even our entire family. We need people to vote…if you believe in this country, if you believe in this nation, if you believe in faith in this country. They want to extinguish it, they want to expunge it, they don’t even try to hide that.”
Newsweek has reached out to Eric Trump via email and Ark of Grace Ministries via online form for comment.

In recent years, a number of influential evangelical figures have come forward and spoken about receiving prophecies regarding Trump.
Last September, Julie Green, another self-proclaimed prophet and supporter of Trump, said during an episode of her online show that she received a message from God about how leaders currently in power are “about to take their ultimate fall.”
In the “prophecy,” Green suggested that God gave her a message about Democratic leaders who are enemies of Trump.
“Their ultimate destruction is near,” she said. “You will see one big massive event unfolding in front of your eyes. It’ll be hard for you to believe what you’re seeing. Their walls are coming down.”
However, since the rise in pro-Trump “prophets,” others including evangelical leaders have called out the danger of endorsing political candidates.
Kimberly Reisman, executive director of World Methodist Evangelism, warned in August that endorsing political candidates hurts Christians across the country. And Carl Nelson, president of Transform Minnesota, cautioned that many endorsements from church leaders fail to “hold that candidate accountable to the full spectrum of values we represent.”
“God can use leaders from all parties, and to equate God’s will with the will of any political party or person is exceedingly dangerous and a threat to the overall witness of Christians in the United States,” Reisman said in a July 31 statement.
Matthew D. Taylor, a senior scholar at the Institute for Islamic, Christian and Jewish Studies, previously told Newsweek about the dangers of these figures and their discourse.
“This language of spiritual warfare has gotten more and more infused into our politics,” Taylor said, adding that the danger of polarizing religious discourse is that it radicalizes the right.
“If you believe that every policy dispute, every election is an arena of constant combat between good and evil, you have no motivation to ever compromise or negotiate,” he said. “What negotiation is there with allies and demons?”
He also expressed concern that as yet another extremely polarized election nears, this rhetoric is “at an even higher fever pitch than it was in 2020.” With Trump leaning into these narratives of prophecy, he said, “we could be coming into a very harrowing season for American democracy.”
