WE ARE PERIOUSLY CLOSE TO TOTAL WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST

I am not a Prophet but I do search the scriptures diligently allowing the Bible to interpret itself. I also try to keep informed about events taking place in the Middle East and World. The following is what I believe is going to begin to play out. This will be a process of a minimum of 7 years—maybe more.

I’d call this a short discussion of how things might occur. It is a sketch of the tribulation period. I am always trying to grasp the details but it is difficult to really predict a time line of events. These are things we should all be thinking about while praying for understanding.

 

The burden of the word of the Lord against Israel. Thus says the Lord, who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him:  “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem.  And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. Zechariah 12.1-4

At this moment Israel/Judah is fighting a war on three fronts: Hamas, Hezbollah, and in the background is Iran. Israel/Judah has decided to go all in an attempt to destroy their enemies. Yes, completely destroy their enemies. This is an Old Testament concept. I am merely pointing out this fact.

They are counting on America to come to their aid when Iran and other nations decide to strike. America is an Israelite Nation if you follow Two House.

America’s involvement would be the beginning of world war. The majority of the world will not support Israel while hoping for their defeat. The American neocons (warmongers), who are influencing the current regime, are pushing hard for war. They actually think America would win and bomb the Arab world into submission. This is not likely. Our military has been reworked by those who have been weakening America. It is not as strong or efficient as it once was.

Russia and China are backing Iran. Once this war starts don’t be surprised when China decides to attack Taiwan. Russia would in turn escalate the war in Ukraine and that could start a war with NATO in Europe. The world will be engulfed in flames, destruction, and death.

The Middle East is a complex situation which goes back 4,000 years—back to Jacob and Esau. It is now entering the final phase and time of sorrows prior to the return of Messiah Yeshuah. Before He returns there will be incredible suffering and war.

 In that day I will make the governors of Judah like a firepan in the woodpile, and like a fiery torch in the sheaves; they shall devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left, but Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place—Jerusalem.

 “The Lord will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall not become greater than that of Judah.  In that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; the one who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the Angel of the Lord before them.  It shall be in that day that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. Zachariah 12.6 -9

These verses seem to predict an Israel victory but I believe it is more complicated and deeper than that. Israel is currently in a state of apostasy. They are politically looking to America to support them. They are not looking to the Lord their God. They are trusting in the flesh.

Most Israeli’s are not even religious. They are very secular.

In the Bible the prophets constantly warned Israel to look to Him for victory. They often relied on Egypt to support them. King Zedekiah looked to Egypt for support against Babylon (2 Kings 23.29-25.30). This did not work out well for him.

The Lord wanted them to rely on Him, not on political unions with other nations.

I see the same situation for Israel/Judah today. It appears to me that Israel will do terrific damage to their enemies but they will have their backs against the wall as their army is overwhelmed by the Arab armies surrounding them. Why else would they be crying out to Elohim?

This will lead to them crying out to Elohim:

I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn. In that day there shall be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.  And the land shall mourn, every family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Shimei by itself, and their wives by themselves; all the families that remain, every family by itself, and their wives by themselves. Zechariah 12.10-14

There will be a great mourning in Israel at this time as they come to the knowledge that Yeshuah is and was the Messiah. “They will look upon me whom they have pierced and mourn for him…” strongly suggests they will be about to perish and look up for their salvation.

This might be called an awakening or revival. It might be a process of months or years.

The question is how does this all play out in real time?  We know that Yahweh is going to save all Israel at that time but it may take years of tribulation after the coming war. That could be the time the Anti-Christ rises up and Israel/Judah and the world experience the great tribulation.

End time prophecy is not a pretty box with a ribbon tied around it. Many think they have all the answers on how this will play out. I know that Yah works on His time schedule and allows events to play out slowly. He waited over a hundred years to judge Israel through the captivity of Babylon. He gave them countless warnings through the prophets but it was many years before they ultimately fell to Babylon.

Zachariah 13 is just such a chapter. This chapter describes the most terrible time for Israel: “In that day a fountain shall be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

 “It shall be in that day,” says the Lord of hosts, “that I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no longer be remembered. I will also cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to depart from the land. It shall come to pass that if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who begot him will say to him, ‘You shall not live, because you have spoken lies in the name of the Lord.’ And his father and mother who begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesies. Zechariah 13.1-3

The inhabitants of Jerusalem seem to be in deep repentance for their sins. They are being cleansed from their uncleanness and sins. They are suffering. The false prophets are being judged, false teaching and idols are being removed from their soul. They appear to be captives in their own land! Israel has become their “Ghetto.”

“Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, Against the Man who is My Companion,”Says the Lord of hosts. “Strike the Shepherd, And the sheep will be scattered; Then I will turn My hand against the little ones. And it shall come to pass in all the land, ”Says the Lord, “That two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die, But one-third shall be left in it:  I will bring the one-third through the fire, Will refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God. ” Zachariah 13.7-9

This refining process is not a pleasant experience but Yahweh is preparing His people for the Millennial Kingdom thousand years. This is a sorrowful time.

Many think the “church” will be raptured out before all this occurs. Why would that be? The “church” is currently in apostasy and will need to be purged just as the nation of Israel/Judah will be purged.

All of these end time tribulations come upon us because we are doing it to ourselves. Yeshuah is coming for an assembly of those whom have been purged and tried like gold. That’s not the Christian “church” that is hiding today. This is an individual process within the Body of Christ. It is not organized religion—it’s ALL those who follow Him.

I’m not being judgmental. I’m going to be refined and purged along with everyone. It will be difficult but also very wonderful as He works to perfect us. He will be coming for a spotless assembly (Body).

Again, how all this exactly works out in real time most likely will surprise all of us. Don’t rely on the neat package of end time events that you’ve been fed all these years. It is going to be His way.

We can understand it will be difficult for us all but also very intimate. It’s you and Him.

Zechariah 14.1-5 explains the rest as we see another conflict in Jerusalem after what we saw in chapter 12

Behold, the day of the Lord is coming, And your spoil will be divided in your midst. For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken,The houses rifled, And the women ravished.
Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

Then the Lord will go forth And fight against those nations, As He fights in the day of battle. And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, From east to west, Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north And half of it toward the south.

 Then you shall flee through My mountain valley, For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the earthquake In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.

This looks like the second coming! Israel/Judah has fought a great war in which they did great damage to their enemies but lost. They have been “taken captive” in the land, suffered, and repented. They have realized their uncleanness and sin as they have been refined in captivity in their own land. Then when it appears all has been lost the Messiah comes!

The rest of Zechariah 14 is describing the 1,000 year Millennial Reign.

In closing, if you believe in the Two House Judah (the Jews of the State of Israel) and Israel (Ephraim and Manasseh) these events will engulf the world and the people of God—Judah/Israel/Jews and Ephraim/Manasseh the progeny of the Lost Tribes of Israel scattered throughout the world for thousands of years.

Yahweh will be gathering all his people from the four corners of the earth during the tribulation period at His return.

Zachariah and the other prophets are our guide. Nobody, but nobody, including myself totally understands completely how the end of the age will play out. The Scriptures are our guide.

The Scriptures reveal there are Martyrs, some protected in hiding, traitors, and warriors speaking the Gospel on the front lines. It will be spiritual conflict of the highest degree. Yahweh is in control. May God bless and guide each of us during this time.

A great interview on the current Middle East War:

WAR IN ISRAEL IS ESCALATING BUT THE END IS NOT YET!

Israel has decided they have had enough and are now fighting to win. In the past they have allowed the USA to lure them into ceasefires with their enemies. This is now no longer the case. They are fighting to destroy their enemies. Eventually this will lead to direct conflict with Iran.

The exploding phones and pagers that were set off against the Hezbollah leadership was Israel’s message to her enemies that they are now fighting to win. Their enemies will never accept Israel’s presence in the land. The United Nations is against them, the USA talks supportive and with the left hand they fund the terrorist organizations surrounding Israel.

Hamas and Hezbollah are fighting a proxy war for Iran in Gaza and Lebanon/Syria. Iran is funding these groups and supplying them with weapons. In actuality Iran has formed a buffer between themselves and Israel to keep Israel from attacking them. They don’t really care that much about Hamas and Hezbollah, Iran is merely using them to keep Israel distracted.

At some point Israel will launch an attack against Iran’s nuclear sites. A few days ago Iran sent 180 missile into Israel as revenge for the recent assassinations of leaders in the terrorist organizations. Israel will now debate on when they should destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Things will become much worse as this war progresses. Then we have the neocons who want to have Ukraine fire nuclear weapons into Russia. This would start a nuclear war in Europe and possibly against American cities. It would be horrible if this occurs, but the leaders of the west are anxious to start a war with Russia.

Then we have the Taiwan Chinese issue that is simmering in Asia. Can you image the USA fighting wars on three fronts, Israel, Ukraine/Europe, and China? No way our woke DEI military would have any chance of winning such conflicts.

The world is in a dangerous place BUT I will tell you that the end is not yet! Much more must play out in this corrupt and wicked world before the Messiah will come. He is going to allow mankind to virtually destroy ourselves before He comes with a shout and the sound of the trumpet!

Peter tells us: “For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? Now “If the righteous one is scarcely saved, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?” 1 Peter 4.17-18

I share this scripture to remind us all that we should have a humble heart and continue to seek His guidance for our lives and how we should be preparing for the storm ahead. As a reader of this blog you know I don’t believe the “church” will be raptured out. We will be lights in a dark world prior to His coming.

Jerusalem will be the burdensome stone that the nations will stumble upon. What we are experiencing today in my opinion is the “beginning of sorrows.” Things are going to get much worse for us—But he will guide those whom He loves. Those He loves are those who follow Him wherever He goes. None of us can rest easy. We are working out our salvation with fear and trembling one day at a time.

We can still live our lives one day at a time and enjoy many things—But let’s be mindful that the storm is upon us and moving slowing but directly toward us.

We will go through much tribulation just as Peter did but he was often delivered out of trouble along the way. When Peter’s mission was accomplished he became a martyr for Yeshuah. Some of us may become martyr’s but that is not something we should fear.

We are living one day at a time and watching world events play out.

Again I quote Peter:  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. 2 Peter 3.10-13

Peter is warning us that when destruction comes it will be quick and terrible.

Our current election in the USA is very important. We need God’s man to win. If he wins we might have a time like in the reign of King Josiah (2 Kings 22-23.28) where there was a brief period of restoration because Josiah was obedient to Yahweh.

Elohim had mercy on Israel during Josiah’s reign but after his death judgment came upon the nation because they STILL disobeyed and were lawless. God had mercy on that generation but those who followed did not continue the restoration of justice.

America is in that place today. If the corrupt regime now in power prevails our country is finished. I am praying and believing we will have a brief restoration period if God’s man wins.

There are many intercessors around the world praying and waging spiritual warfare on our behalf. Add your prayers to these warriors who are spending many hours in prayer and fasting.

Things will still be difficult if he wins but it will hold off the disaster which is being forced on the entire world by those who wish to have a one world government. Keep track of the things the United Nations and the WEF are planning.

So, I have some hope, but I’m seeking the Father in the hope of being fully prepared for whatever is coming. Let nothing surprise us.

The end is not yet. If you understand the seven year tribulation then you know the end is not yet! There will be no secret rapture. We are not greater than Yeshuah or His Disciples. We will be perfected in trial and tribulation.

Enjoy your families and the simple things in life one day at a time and watch closely as events play out. Do not become complacent. Believe that our Master will guide us in truth, mercy, and love. He does have wonderful protections and ways of moving in our lives. We must be close to Him to understand. Seek Him. This is the truth.

 

 

REVISTING MATTHEW 24 AND THE RETURN OF OUR MESSIAH

What Yeshua told his disciples about the end of this age and his imminent return to Jerusalem.

Jesus Predicts the Destruction of the Temple

Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple.  And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”

The temple was totally destroyed, only the foundation wall remains.

The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age

Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will  hese things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

The question is “When is your coming and the end of this age? We must read carefully. What Yeshua says and does not say is crucial to our understanding!

And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.  And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.  For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

These beginnings of sorrow have been happening for two thousand years and will continue. A thousand years is as a day in Elohim’s count!

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.  And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.  Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.  And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.  But he who endures to the end shall be saved.  And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

First, he is telling the disciples what is going to happen to them. This applies to all who follow: tribulation, possible death for believing, betrayal, and hate. Lawlessness certainly abounds in our nation and the world at a whole new level of depravity!

We must endure until the end. Where is he telling them and us that there will be an escape rapture? We are to continue preaching the gospel of the kingdom through all of these troubles. There is no rapture as we will understand as we continue to read.

The Great Tribulation

“Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.  But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 

First, Yeshuah is warning them of the coming destruction of the temple. The Romans are going to desecrate and burn the temple. He is telling them to watch and flee Jerusalem when the Roman Army approaches. Get out of town! If a woman is pregnant and nursing it will be an extreme hardship on them. Fleeing in winter or unprepared on a Sabbath would also be a hardship.

For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

This is a dual prophecy. The destruction of the temple was the beginning of the dispersion of Judah and the end of their time in the Holy Land until regathering in 1948. That time qualifies as great tribulation.

He is also prophesying about the trouble which will befall the current nation of Israel at the end of this age. All prophecy can be dual.

The scriptures say Judah will be dispersed and return again. We have seen their return in 1948. The next phase is Jacob’s Trouble and the Controversy of Zion. Begin here: https://burningbush647.blogspot.com/2023/10/

“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.  For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand.

This was and is a warning to all Believers throughout the ages. It will be especially prevalent during the tribulation years which are still to come.

“Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.

So many false prophets throughout the time since Yeshuah told the disciples and us to watch for this. When He returns it will be like lightning striking. The carcass will be Jerusalem at the end of this age. The eagles and birds of prey circle a dead corpse. It will be an awful time—but he is assuring us he will come! Read Zechariah 12 through 14 for information on what is coming.

The Coming of the Son of Man

“Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 

Oh, if you have read carefully there it is…immediately after the tribulation of those days! That is the one and only second coming! He has not once said or indicated we or they will be raptured out. He is telling us to remain faithful, unmovable! He is coming! 

Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.  And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

It is so clear! He is telling us and his disciples this is what will happen to you! We are not greater than they were. We will experience the tribulation. At this time He will gather us from the four winds…all of us…Israel and Judah. Read Matthew 13 on the wheat and tares!

The Parable of the Fig Tree

“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Again, dual prophecy. The disciples will see and go through the destruction of the temple and the scattering of Judah. So we, at the end of this age will also go through the tribulation of our time. Their generation and our generation. Look at these recent events: https://www.jurist.org/news/2024/09/israel-challenges-icc-jurisdiction-over-arrest-warrants-for-netanyahu-and-gallant/

https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/09/1154496

The world is turning against Israel/Judah. All who confess Yeshuah will also be persecuted. It is beginning. It will play out to its fullness in the coming years. Be prepared!

No One Knows the Day or Hour

“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.  But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.  For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 

The world will continue to do what it does until He comes! There will be a functioning world government. The world is not ending tomorrow. It may end in 7 years from now, but no secret second coming rapture is about to occur!

Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 

Again, read Matthew 13 in its entirety and understand the parable of tares and wheat. They are gathered together at the same time! Tares thrown in the fire, wheat taken into the barn.

Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

One day at a time fellow believers, one day at a time. We are going to go through some amazing and difficult times in the immediate years ahead of us. Seek now while you can. Allow the WORD to interpret itself. Read prayerfully and carefully…there is so much garbage out there. Let both O.T. and N.T. together interpret themselves…SEEK the truth.

Don’t be blown about by every end time video and prophecy. Walk a day at a time. READ the WORD. Stand fast immoveable. Perhaps you will live to hear the sound the trumpet on that glorious day!

 

THE CLOSER WE GET TO THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION EXPECT INCREASED CHAOS AND UNREST

America is under attack by dark enemy forces that wish to dismantle our Constitutional rights and install a leftist communist government whose only aim is to control we the people.

This is a difficult subject to discuss as the majority of Americans are incredibly unaware of the destructive forces coming against our nation. The media are not telling the truth as they have become propaganda instruments of the current leftist regime. Lies are the order of the day!

President Trump has a four year record of achievements which made us prosper. He cut taxes, controlled the border and created jobs. The Biden Administration reversed all of those things.

The border is wide open and millions of un-vetted immigrants have crossed into the country since the Biden-Harris regime took over. The main stream media does not tell the truth about this invasion.

Anyone with any intelligence should be able to seek the truth on the internet and discover what is really happening. The Democrats are purposely destroying the America I was born into in 1951.

They are bought and paid for by the elite billionaires like George Soros and his son Alex, the World Economic Forum, and other deep pocketed leftist organizations.

I am beyond amazed at how shallow and ignorant a large portion of Americans don’t recognize the current dire situation. They are oblivious to the lies the left is spewing on mainstream media.

Why would former Republicans like Dick and Liz Cheny, Mitt Romney, the Mc Cain family, and others say they are going to vote Democrat? Why would Hillary Clinton want to jail anyone who posts truth (what she calls lies) on social media be arrested?

These people are all part of the Uni-Party who have been controlling we the people for years. They are in a panic because President Trump has been exposing them for years. Finally a large portion of the population are beginning to awaken to this.

Our current government is corrupt and are destroying the Constitutional rights of the people on purpose. Let that sink in. They are corrupt, paid off, liars, and war-mongers. They purposely want to bring America down!

The borders are open in order to allow non-citizens to vote for the party that has allowed them to enter the country. Included are tens of thousands of criminals that have been directed here from their own countries. Our government is paying to house these people in hotels in large cities, paying them thousands a month for expenses, and issuing drivers licenses whether they can drive or not.

I could go on and on but if you’re reading this you most likely are aware of the dire situation we are facing in the coming months and years. America is being torn apart.

BE CAREFUL YOU ARE NOT BLOWN ABOUT BY FALSE PROPHETS AND END OF THE WORLD PREDICTIONS

There is a tremendous amount of fear mongering in the alternative media about the end of the world. Many Christian ministries talk about the current crisis and then direct you to their page to sell you all the products you’re going to need to survive the coming storm.

Don’t misunderstand, I do believe we should all be preparing for difficult times ahead, but these people speak in a high degree of fear mongering and are making a lot of money off of your fear.

SOME THINGS WE CAN DO

We can prepare for the difficulties in many common sense ways that will have you prepared for much of what is coming.

Just looking for sales on food items such as canned soups, fish, rice, beans, and wheat can be practiced every time you shop. We have a bread machine, grind our own flour, and bake our own muffins, etc. Most soups have at least an 18 month good date on them. All these types of items can be stored and rotated during the months and years.

It is also good to make an attempt to clear yourself from as much debt as possible. Owning your house and car are ideal. Tough to do, but if you’ve been paying extra for years it can be accomplished.

Also it’s a good idea to have at least three months of cash under the mattress to pay your bills if the economy crashes. The less money you have in the bank the better. In a crash the banks will be allowed to use your savings as a “bail in” and you’ll never see it again.  https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bailin.asp

Some have been buying 90% junk silver or gold whenever they can. That is difficult because the price has been going higher but it is better than having too much cash. Check out www.glintpay.com where you can buy gold and spend it on a credit card they issue.

If the economy goes digital the card will allow you to spend the gold and you don’t have to have it in your physical possession. Sort of the same idea as bitcoin, but in the glint form you become your own central bank! Gold is money and if you spend it when it’s going up and use other means when it goes down you are making money!

IT’S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT IN THE COMING MONTHS AND YEARS

As believers in Yashuah we must prepare ourselves for the most difficult times in our lives. The wicked will not give up their power willingly but will do whatever it takes for them to survive. More people are awakening to the current dilemma than ever before. http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/

Expect both parties to not accept the election results. The Dems will try to decertify the results. There will be riots and unrest, burning of cities, violence. That’s the least we can expect.

They hate President Trump so much for exposing them they will do anything. Will the military intervene? If so, whom will they support?

If President Trump prevails they will do everything they can to discredit him and disrupt his agenda just as they did with the Plan-Demic. He had our country humming.

We are facing a Constitutional crisis. We are partly to blame for not paying attention. America is becoming 2 Timothy chapter 3. We need to personally repent before our Father.

PRAYING WITH FOCUS

I would suggest reading 1^st and 2^nd Timothy for direction and understanding of the current times and how to pray. Here is an interesting example: First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone,  for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. 1 Timothy 2.1-2

I note that Paul is telling Timothy to pray for those in authority in order that we may lead our lives quietly and in tranquility. I have wrestled with these verses in the past but I believe the Father showed me something interesting.

We are basically praying that the authorities will be honest and good people who will allow us to live without fear and hassle. I didn’t feel like I could pray for corrupt leaders. Then I realized that I was praying for them to act in a righteous manner.

If they are wicked as Paul writes about in 2 Timothy 3 we will not be able to live in peace. Therefore I realized I am not praying for them to prosper but rather that they repent and turn from their wickedness in order that we may live in peace! It gets better.

Now read Psalm 94 in its entirety: Oh Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs…it begins. It goes on to describe how God will judge them, chastise us, and how He will watch over us.

We are praying our leaders will repent and if they don’t then we are asking they will be judged by God, we will be chastised for not paying attention, and he will watch over us! This made perfect Biblical sense to me. My prayer was invigorated!

ONE DAY AT A TIME

Let’s take each day as it comes. The world is in a dangerous place. The neocons, those pols who want war with Ukraine, Russia, and the Middle East want WAR to distract us. War is their way of controlling us. Destruction is the tool. They have been controlling the USA for decades…endless wars with no victory.

Live one day at a time. Go about your business and pray for God’s mercy and direction. Take care of and love your family. Do not be blown about by rumors and fear mongering about the end of the world. Prepare like Joseph!

If the tribulation is indeed a seven year period than every morning when I arise I know the world will be here for at least 7 more years. Many things must still take place before He comes! To SAVE US!

Finally, don’t think you will be raptured out before tribulation: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16.33

Keep calm and carry on!

GOLD REVALUATION COMING SOON?

Many events are about to occur as we move toward the fall election. As believers we must prepare for social unrest beginning now. Below is the possibility of gold being revalued to a much higher price as the dollar begins to collapse in value.

How Central Banks Might Revalue the Price of Gold

1. Gold Revaluation Mechanism: Central banks have the power to revalue gold because they hold significant reserves and can directly impact its price through coordinated policies. Here’s how it might work:
   • Coordinated Buying or Selling: Central banks can collaborate to purchase or sell gold in the open market. By significantly increasing demand through coordinated buying, they could drive up the price. Conversely, selling gold could decrease its price, although central banks are more likely to use buying as a tool to increase gold’s value.
   • Setting a Fixed Price: Central banks could announce a new fixed price for gold, signaling their intention to buy or sell gold at that price to maintain it. This method was used during the Bretton Woods system, where the U.S. dollar was pegged to gold at $35 per ounce, and other currencies were pegged to the dollar.
   • Adjusting Reserve Requirements: Central banks could require higher reserves of gold relative to other assets, forcing banks and financial institutions to hold more gold. This would naturally increase demand and push the price upward.
   • Creating a Gold-Backed Digital Currency: Central banks might introduce a digital currency partially backed by gold. The announcement or launch of such a currency would increase demand for gold as a reserve asset, driving up its value.
2. Reasons for Revaluation: Central banks might consider revaluing gold for several reasons:
   • Stabilizing Currencies: In times of fiat currency instability, revaluing gold could help anchor the value of currencies by increasing confidence in gold-backed reserves.
   • Combatting Inflation: Revaluing gold could act as a tool against inflation by providing a hard asset alternative, reducing the money supply’s velocity, and curbing inflationary pressures.
   • Geopolitical Shifts: In a scenario where the U.S. dollar’s dominance is challenged, countries might seek to revalue gold as a neutral reserve asset to reduce dependency on the dollar.

Likelihood of Central Banks Revaluing Gold

First Principles Analysis: To determine the likelihood of central banks working together to revalue gold, let’s break down the problem using first principles:

1. Observation 1: Current Gold Holdings and Trends:
   • Many central banks, especially in emerging markets (e.g., China, Russia, India), have been increasing their gold reserves over the past decade. They are diversifying away from U.S. dollar-denominated assets due to geopolitical tensions and concerns about the dollar’s long-term stability.
   • According to the World Gold Council, central banks purchased a significant amount of gold in 2022 and 2023, highlighting a trend toward greater gold accumulation.
2. Observation 2: Potential Motivations for Revaluation:
   • Currency Stability and Inflation Control: With inflation concerns persisting globally, central banks might look for ways to strengthen their currencies. Revaluing gold could serve as a hedge against inflation.
   • Geopolitical Realignments: Rising geopolitical tensions, such as the U.S.-China trade war and Russia’s exclusion from the Western financial system, suggest a search for alternatives to the U.S. dollar. Gold, being a neutral asset, could be a strategic choice.
3. Observation 3: Current Economic Conditions and Constraints:
   • The global economic environment shows significant volatility, with rising inflation, concerns about debt sustainability, and shifts in global power structures.
   • Fiat Currency Defensiveness: Central banks of major economies (e.g., the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank) might resist actions that could undermine confidence in fiat currencies. A move to revalue gold significantly might indicate a loss of control over fiat systems, something major powers would be reluctant to signal.
4. Challenges to Coordinated Revaluation:
   • Coordination Complexity: Coordinating among the world’s major central banks (such as the Federal Reserve, ECB, PBOC, and Bank of Russia) would be highly complex, considering divergent economic interests and geopolitical dynamics.
   • Market Reaction and Trust Issues: Sudden revaluation could lead to significant market volatility, impacting bonds, equities, and currencies, potentially causing unintended consequences that might hurt the economies involved.
   • Gold Market Dynamics: The global gold market is influenced by more than just central banks—mining output, jewelry demand, and private investment also play substantial roles. Central banks do not control the entire market, making coordinated action less effective.

Real-World Evidence and Indicators

• Gold Accumulation by Central Banks: As mentioned, there has been a noticeable increase in gold reserves by countries like China, Russia, India, and Turkey. These countries are keen on reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar, which is a strong signal toward preferring a gold standard or using gold as a hedge.
• Digital Currencies and Gold-Backed Tokens: There has been interest from countries like Russia and China in exploring digital currencies, potentially backed by gold. This would serve as a hedge against sanctions and currency devaluation, indirectly affecting gold’s value.
• Current Geopolitical Instability: The rising U.S.-China tensions, sanctions against Russia, and the de-dollarization trend could accelerate the need for a more neutral reserve asset like gold. However, outright revaluation requires a more coordinated effort, which seems challenging given the fractured geopolitical environment.

Conclusion: Likelihood Assessment

Based on first principles thinking and real-world evidence:

• Short-term Likelihood: Low. While there is a strong case for revaluing gold, especially among countries looking to diversify from the U.S. dollar, the likelihood of a coordinated effort among major central banks remains low. The complexity of coordination, resistance from major fiat currency holders, and the potential for destabilizing markets make it an unlikely near-term scenario.
• Medium to Long-term Likelihood: Moderate to High. If current trends of de-dollarization continue, geopolitical tensions rise, or inflation remains persistently high, the incentive for central banks to explore a partial or full gold revaluation could increase. This scenario would require new financial crises or significant geopolitical shifts to become a reality.

In essence, while the groundwork for a potential revaluation is being laid in a fragmented way by some central banks, the prospect of a unified, coordinated revaluation is remote in the current global context. However, watch for changes in global economic stability, inflationary trends, and geopolitical dynamics as key indicators of a shift toward gold revaluation in the future.
