Woman entrep predicted Duterte’s win in a ‘vision’

- By JOEY CONCEPCION

Afew months ago in the “Go Negosyo: Meet the Presidenti­ables Forum” with President-elect Rodrigo Duterte, a Go Negosyo entreprene­ur, Grace Gupana, was a panelist for the forum. When it was her turn to question Mayor Duterte, everyone was shocked and amazed to hear her prophetic “vision” about him.

“I will just obey what the Lord told me in a vision,” she said. “I am a prayer woman. I kneel in prayers for our country to be blessed by our Lord God. When I was praying for our country, I saw a vision in the Jerusalem sanctuary of Asia, here in Quezon City where I stayed. I saw you (Mayor Duterte) coming from a dungeon. It was dark, I saw you holding an old lamp that was lit. I asked God what the vision meant and he told me to bring these parapherna­lia from Jerusalem.”

She was told to give the following sacred objects to Duterte: the Ark of the Covenant, the Menorah (the seven golden lamp stand), the Oil of Anointing of Jerusalem, the Hebraic roots Bible from Jerusalem and the Shofar. She also gave him a medal of the Lion of Judah, representi­ng all the things Duterte has done for our country.

“When I was seeing that vision I was wide awake,” Gupana claimed. I didn’t know him (Duterte) then; I wanted to obey right away.”

Gupana is the CEO of ABS Gen Herbs, one of the leading herbal supplement companies in the Philippine­s. Her business manufactur­es a natural medicine made of ampalaya herbs to treat diabetes and other ailments.

The company’s advocacy is holistic wellness; her business not only promotes the use of herbal plants for medicines but the totality of living a healthy lifestyle. She is familiar with the city of Jerusalem because she lived in Israel for quite some time — she has a sanctuary and a prayer room in Jerusalem devoted to praying and serving God.

After her prediction at the forum, everyone had quizzical looks on their faces. Unsure how to react, some were suppressin­g snickers and giggles. But President-elect Duterte handled it profession­ally: he thanked Grace for her gifts and answered her concerns in a straightfo­rward manner.

With the turnout of the 2016 election, Mayor Duterte has gained favorable votes for the highest position in our government. Does Grace’s vision now convey a revelation?
