Shabbat Shalom to all!
Who owns your truth?
Jeremiah 2:11-13 “Has a nation changed its gods, which are not gods? But My people have changed their glory, for what does not profit. Be astonished O heavens at this, and be horribly afraid. Become very desolate says the Lord. For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters and hewn for themselves broken cisterns that can hold no water.”
Many people are at a crossroad right now. Which way they go will bring them great victory or deep darkness!
Jeremiah 13:15-16 “Hear and give ear; do not be proud, for the Lord has spoken. Give glory to the Lord your God, before He causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and while you are looking for the light, He turns it into the shadow of death and makes it dense darkness.”
Job 21:14 “They say to God, ‘depart from us, for we do not desire the knowledge of Your ways.’”
We have a growing divide right now between the godless liberal left and those that stand for a nation under God. The divide is actually correct, because “two can’t walk together unless they be agreed.”
O f course political parties don’t agree that’s normal, but all should agree on one ultimate authority and provider of truth – God and His word. The basic principles of the virtues of God should be held in esteem above the law of the land or politicians in all nations.
The removal of the word of God from society places it in godless jeopardy with Satan and his word now the authority. Pelosi is a good example of that. So many things get removed from society when the Bible is removed including the all important four swords revealed in the Bible:
●The sword of murder, ●the sword of Capital punishment, ●the sword of war, ●the sword of the Spirit.
If you remove the Bible’s definition of murder (homicide) it sends a message of tolerance with crime and destroys deterrence. If you remove the sword of capital punishment, you meet out injustice to the victim. If you remove the sword of war, you create a nation of push-over pacifists. If you remove the sword of the Spirit, you remove the authority of the believer and make him defenceless.
This is the way to weaken a nation right at its foundation. It is the way of liberals!
You need to be aware of this and the intensifying evil spirits at work otherwise, you are in big danger.
The great reset will produce the great eternal regret at the end of the day.
You can attack the truth, but remember, God owns the truth. You are attacking Him. The Bible may bleed for a few seconds, but it will be you who will eventually and eternally!
God owns the truth, and if the truth is in you are owned by Him and are unshakable, safe and secure. The truth is unbreakable and unchangeable. It will break those who try to break it, it always does.
The political mayhem is one side of the present day troubles. The mutating virus is the other. Both are changing the very face of the world right before us.
On top of the socio-political upheavals on the go, the virus is mutating and spreading faster than before. These things are all causing great stress in the world.
►Will things return to normal? Absolutely not! A vaccine is not a substitute for repentance. You can’t take a pill or get a vaccination to remove the results of the disease of sin! (I am in no way coming against those who take the vaccine. I’m talking generally)
Will God accept a vaccination instead of repentance?
Things can only return to normal if we are far from the whole end-time train rolling in. We are not far, but very close to the whole picture unfolding.
Why is God calling loudly for repentance now through so many of His voices? It is because time is running out fast and He wants people as holy as possible, ready for heaven at the rapture. He is also preparing Israel for a sudden return to holiness, so that they can be effective witnesses and evangelists in the tribulation period.
It’s also because the world’s wickedness has gone into overdrive and is speeding up. It’s because of where we are on the grand prophetic calendar.
(By the way, I have some incredible revelation of some familiar verses on the rapture and Israel, which I will share soon. It will destroy some deeply held, but incorrect views.)
Don’t you think it’s interesting that the church has failed in her commission to the Jew, while the Jew in the tribulation will be very successful in taking the gospel to the Gentile!
The big reason for the rapture is not the great escape, although that is quite true. It is to bring in the last Gentile and then see the veil removed as the gospel goes to the Jew.
Matthew 23:37-38 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often have I want to gather your children together like a hen gathers her chicks under her wings. But you were not willing! See your house is left to you desolate.”
When Bible prophecy is on the march, what a terrible thing to be left behind and right out of it, with no idea of its existence and relevance!
►1 Thessalonians 5:20 “Do not despise prophesies.”
The word “despise” is Strong’s G1848 ‘Exoutheneo.’ Meanings: Despise, set at nought, make contemptible, not to be esteemed.
This verse above means you had better wake up fast to Bible prophecy, even if your parrot behind the pulpit won’t touch prophecy.
Most importantly, it also means that presumptuous, always-wrong prophecy teachers and watchmen are the very ones causing prophecy to be “set at nought” and “made contemptible, not to be esteemed”
False watchmen are prophecy killers and faith killers!
Proverbs 12:19 “The truthful lip shall be established forever, but a lying tongue is but for a moment.”
For your edification:
You need to be spiritually strong in these days. You must be clearly defined in who you are spiritually and in all areas of your life.
We have as part of the church the happy clappies and hands up church (me included) and the no-happy, no-clappies, hands down, boring, dead, denominational non-spirit filled crowd, with no insight except that of the world.
Even if you are not in a local church you need to be demonstrative in your walk with our Lord. Once you are Spirit filed, even in your home alone, raise your hands in prayer and clap your hands, and if your dog bites you, serves you right for hiding your spirituality.
a† Shalom...Joel.
Edition 283: October 28th 2015
A message and warning to the Nations:
A message and warning to the Nations:
Introduction:
We must know that God deals with individuals, families, entire nations and the world as a whole. There are many verses that apply to each one. God deals with believers and unbelievers differently and He also deals with Israel separately. You can’t lump them all together.
In this edition, I want to deal with the major Bible messages and warnings to the unsaved world and their leaders in particular. This would include government institutions, organisations like the UN, the financial institutions, the religious institutions and the masses of the people as well.
This message is for Presidents, Prime Ministers, Kings, Queens, Princes, Heads of State, UN leaders, Ambassadors, Senators, Governors, Sultans, Sheikhs and all VIP’s with governmental authority and influence.
There is one very big, enormous message and warning to the nations. Of course all the warnings about moral decline are relevant, but the big one relates to the treatment of Israel, Jerusalem and the Jews.
Believe it, like it or not, this is the great divide of the era. In fact this is the most important issue in the world. This will be a fast-rising fence and will be the cause of many going to hell and many being saved. You don’t know how important this is!
Leaders of the world, almost without exception, you are now fulfilling Bible prophecy, written thousands of years ago as you turn against Israel, many in unison and some one by one like demon-dominos tumbling.
Leaders of the world, your influence among your people has and will spread. In many cases, like a tragic Pied Piper, you are leading your people to hell. You are beyond help.
What is going on in the world?
The world is not moving along in a random fashion. It is on its deadly course! Likewise, God’s kingdom is on course as well, exactly as planned. (Ephesians 2:2)
If God has established and set something clearly in His word, and if it is a big issue, you can be sure that Satan will oppose it.
The problem with the world is that it has decided in favour of the Palestinians and against Israel. But why the universal hatred, why are all nations against God’s word on Israel? The reason is because the world hates God. But why is this the case? It is because the world is one with its god – Satan, and it follows its lover of evil. (2 Corinthians 4:4). It is because the world has Satan in its heart even though it can’t see him, know him, or even acknowledge that he exists. (John 15:18-19)
The world hates God because He dares to choose. God says homosexuality is evil. The world says it’s a democratic choice. The world thinks it is right because it has the majority consensus is on its side. The world thinks democracy is God.
And while on the subject of homosexuality and its very telling choice of the rainbow flag:
The rainbow, my friends, is a two sided sword with three central messages incorporated into it. ●It’s a beautiful reminder of God’s promises of new beginnings and blessing after judgement. ●It’s a beautiful reminder that God judges sin and that untold terror is coming to the whole world again. ●It incorporates homosexuality into the category of sin.
A message to world leaders:
Dear Presidents and Prime Ministers of the world and all the world’s leaders. This is for you, although most of you will not read it. But many of your subjects will. O let me add, that many of you, world leaders, will soon be in great company. You will soon meet with the world’s most famous people and leaders of all time.
Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini and Mao will be there, so will Saddam Hussein and Bin Laden. John Lennon and George will be there – imagine! Pol Pot and Attila the Hun will be there. Vlad the Impaler, Vlad Dracula and Vlad Lenin will be at the meeting and so will Ivan the Terrible. Nero, Caesar, Herod. Judas the betrayer, Nimrod, Jezebel and your own favourites – they’ll all be there and you’ll meet them face to face.
Obama, after you’ve crossed the deadly line drawn by God, you’ll be able to sit down with Hitler and get to know him. You’ll have lots of time.
Netanyahu, unless you get saved first, you’ll be joining that chat with Obama and Hitler!
Queenie, you’ll be able to sit down with Diana and Napoleon and have tea with them. The tea will be fiery hot though!
The message for you, dear world leaders is this. Do you know that your influence flows through to your people? Do you know that what you do and say influences the beliefs and practises of your subjects? Do you know that they follow you in many respects? Do you know that you have huge influence within the masses?
Have a look at these shocking verses from the book of my Leader, personal God and Saviour:
Proverbs 29:12 “If a ruler pays attention to lies, all his servants become wicked.”
Jeremiah 8:9 “The wise men are ashamed and dismayed. Behold they have rejected the word of the Lord; so what wisdom do they have?
Rulers of the nations, you are the fools with no wisdom revealed in the verse above! You are the servants of lies born in the god of lies. You have led untold millions down the road to the coming wrath of God. You have no true wisdom. Your wisdom comes from the camouflaged father of deception, the giver of dark light.
Rulers of the world, you rule with all the authority of the joker in the pack, except it’s not so funny! You rule with the wisdom of Satan himself, the powerful deceiver, and worker of miracles.
Political leaders of the world, you are failures. Your failure may not be apparent now, but very soon it will all become evident. You have failed at your jobs, and failed in leading your people safely to healthy pastures! You have failed before God and failed His word. Your eternal future is failure in the extreme (unless you repent before your die.)
World rulers, you have the blood of many masses on your hands. You are the failures and fools responsible. World rulers, read that verse again in Proverbs 29:12 above!
There is a new big thing happening around the world now – you can’t see it or know it unless you are born-again and Spirit filled. There is a new outbreak and intensity of demonic powers in operation especially in world rulers.
These are major controlling demon principalities, which operate specifically in rulers and leaders.
Let me just add, that you can’t get rid of any demons in your life outside of the gifts of the Spirit.
The great deception:
Today the greatest deception of all is found in the Israeli / Palestinian “question” and its related issues.
The occupation of the territories and the Temple Mount are perhaps the biggest issues where the strongest deceptions are to be found.
God ordered the occupation! Shall I say that again? God ordered the occupation! Shall I say it again? God ordered the occupation.
What right do you have, world leaders, to defy God?
Exodus 23:32-33 “You (Israel) shall make no covenant with them (Arabs), nor with their gods. They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
Genesis 17:7-8 “I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant to be God to you and your descendants after you. Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession, and I will be their God.”
Numbers 33:50-55 Instructions for the conquest of Canaan: “Moses, speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan, then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy all their engraved stones, destroy all their moulded images and demolish all their high places...but if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those who let remain, shall be irritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land where you dwell.
These verses above show and demonstrate clearly that God, by covenant decree, ordered the children of Israel to occupy the land which is Israel today. By the way, there are dozens more similar verses.
World leaders, your attention should be energised against the real occupation and occupiers – the Palestinians!
The Temple Mount:
The Temple Mount is not only significant from a prophetic point of view, but it is of major importance from a historic, cultural and religious point of view. The history, worship and very identification of the Jewish people and the Temple Mount go back over 3000 years, long, long before Islam was ever invented in 600AD.
The problems with the troubles surrounding the Temple Mount are really, Israel’s in the first place. Once you let the Genie out of the bottle, you can’t put it back in. And when the Genie turns into a monster, you have a big problem. Israel could have annexed the Temple Mount in 1967, and they could do it now. But to placate and appease Islam and the Palestinians they now have an enormous problem.
World leaders are now trying to defy God by not only dividing the land of Israel, the city of Jerusalem, but the Temple Mount as well. In fact it is already divided.
Temple Mount, may I address you directly? (Yes I do speak to stones sometimes and I do wish that the stones of the Temple Mount would speak – what a dramatic story they would tell!) Your ancient stones are about to see fire, judgement, the fury of God, war, conflict, and all that emanates from defying the living God! Perhaps, some peace deal will emerge afterwards and as a result.
Dividing the land (two-state solution) brings war and not peace. (Joel 3:2) Dividing the city of Jerusalem brings world war and not peace. (Zechariah 12:3) Dividing the Temple Mount brings war and not peace, and then the man of peace, the antichrist comes right into the heart of the new temple to declare himself as God. (Daniel 9:27)
The Temple Mount is the only place where God commanded His name to dwell. (Deuteronomy 12:11) It is also the very spot where the world’s greatest deception will take place. It will be Satan himself indwelling the antichrist who will declare himself as God in the Temple. God commanded His name to dwell there; the counterfeiter in camouflage declares that he is God from there!
What drama!
You see, as long as Islam has a presence on the Temple Mount it legitimises, affirms and attests to the very existence of Palestine and its ownership claim of all Israel, which is all a lie. That’s just why war is coming, and we already know who the victor will be!
These verses declare that our Lord has chosen Zion, He has chosen Jerusalem and He has chosen the Jews! (For the sake of space, hover your mouse over the verses). Psalm 132:13, Zechariah 3:2, Deuteronomy 14:2, Psalm 135:4.
And if you think those verses are not clear enough, this is the breakdown of God’s covenant with the children of Israel, which specifically excludes the Arabs (modern Palestinians.)
Genesis 17:18-21 “Abraham said to God, ‘O that Ishmael (father of the Arabs) might live before you!’ Then God said, ‘No Sarah your wife shall bear you a son and you shall call his name Isaac (father of the Jews). I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant and with his descendants after him. As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him and made him fruitful and will multiply him exceedingly...but My covenant I will establish with Isaac.’”
World rulers, you will dance with the devil in the new temple! You will screech his tune. In fact you are already serving him!
World leaders and rulers, did you know that there is a special high-ranking category of demons which inhabit you? Do you know that they are manoeuvring you all into order for your great end-time, tragic, horror-roles?
Acts 15:16 “I will return and I will rebuild the tabernacle of David (temple) which has fallen down. I will rebuild its ruins and I will set it up, so that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who are called by My name.”
The temple may well become the headquarters of the new world religion or at least the HQ of the interfaith movement with false Christianity, Judaism and Islam united.
An unchangeable heart of war:
The heart of man is desperately wicked says the Bible. (Jeremiah 17:9). Every man has a heart! Every heart has the wickedness of Adam in his blood and it can only be changed by getting new-blood, the blood of Messiah by the new-birth through faith.
The sin problem in mankind comes by birth, and can only be fixed by the new-birth, but there are some who will never repent or change.
Like the divisions of authority within an army there are simply some people out there who are satanically driven leaders. They are ruled by equally powerful demons deep in their hearts. These are people who love crime, who love war, who love hatred. They are beyond help.
Psalm 140:1 “Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men. Preserve me from violent men who plan evil things in their hearts; they continually gather together for war.”
Psalm 55:21 “The words of His mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart.”
Psalm 68:30 “Scatter the people who delight in war.”
Psalm 120:7 “I am for peace, but when I speak they are for war.”
Do these verses relate to the Palestinians today? Of course they do. If you say they don’t, you are most probably from Europe, or perhaps an Obama fan.
Today, many world leaders call the Palestinians innocent victims of Israel aggression.
Obama, it’s your evil heart that causes you to throw Israel under the bus! Abbas, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS and your allies the world’s mass media, it’s your evil, wicked hearts that cause you to hate the Jews.
Your attitude:
“Prepare for war, wake up the mighty men” (and machines) (Joel3:9)
The world’s mass-media will unite the opinions of the world and all Israel’s enemies. Unknowingly (most of the time) they are preparing the stage for great war and conflict, which is all about to break out. They will be the very ones who facilitated it.
Israel’s journey to victory and her Messiah will not be without enormous bloodshed. The world’s rulers are complicit with the devil and the media in this regard. But you, my friends, what will your attitude be?
Micah 7:8 “Do not rejoice over me my enemy; when I fall, I will arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me.”
Amos 9:15 “I will plant them in their land; and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have given them, says the Lord.’”
The above two verses are extremely profound, far reaching and relevant today. Israel has and will fall again. Do not rejoice! Israel will arise again and fully complete God’s original call, purpose and plan with them.
Also note that once Israel is back in her God-given land, that’s it. She will never be uprooted again. Do you see that you fool politicians and world leaders? You can’t divide Israel or Jerusalem. You can’t give Israel or any part to Islam.
You, leaders trying to divide the land, you can’t ultimately defeat God and His word.
As a believer, you don’t need to be on the front lines, but you must not be silent either.
“Silence in the face of evil is evil itself” Never a truer word spoken!
In a previous edition, I said, “Israel it’s your time”. Now I say to true believers, “It’s your time to take a stand. It’s your time to stand with God’s word for Israel”.
Only God’s choice will endure:
Psalm 33:12 “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, and the people He has chosen as His inheritance.”
Isaiah 60:12 “For the nation and kingdom which shall not serve you, shall perish and be utterly ruined.”
Isaiah 28:22 “Do not be mockers...a destruction is determined upon the whole earth.”
Psalm 2:1-5 “Why do the nations rage and the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves (and take their places) and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against His anointed...He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision. He shall speak to them in His wrath, and distress them in His deep displeasure.”
These verses above give you a little clue as to your choices!
God’s irrevocable plan and call to Israel:
Romans 11:29 “The gifts and calling of God (upon the Jews) are irrevocable.”
Acts 13:47 “I have set you (Jews) to be a light to the Gentiles that you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.”
Isaiah 42:6 “I the Lord have called you (Jews) in righteousness, and will hold your hand; I will keep you and give you as a covenant to the people, as a light to the Gentiles.”
Ezekiel 20:41 “I will accept you (Israel) when I bring you out of the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered; and I will be hallowed in you before the Gentiles.”
Zechariah 8:22-23 “Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord. In those days, ten men of every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, and ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you”.
Jeremiah 30:17 “I will restore you (Israel) and heal your wounds, says the Lord, because they called you an outcast saying: This is Zion; no one seeks her.” But verse 22 says: You Israel shall be My people and I will be your God.”
Do you see God’s plan for Israel in these verses above? Please read them again and let them sink in. The dramatic, glorious summary is this:
God brings His called and chosen people back to the land of Israel in spiritual blindness, then opens their eyes and saves them. Now with Messiah in their hearts the Gentile nations of the world come running to the Jews for salvation! This all reaches its climax in the tribulation period. What great drama! What a spectacular turn of events! What a wonderful God we serve!
Israel, prepare for your surprising future! Israel, prepare for war and bloodshed, Israel prepare for a new covenant with God, written in blood – His blood!
Finally:
Imagine the shock of arriving in hell and finding out that Satan is real and he was in you and leading you and influencing you. Imagine the shock of arriving in hell and finding out that your political heroes and rulers are all there and were the tools of Satan all along. Imagine the shock of arriving in hell and finding out that you were wrong and on the wrong road all your life because you swallowed the poison of the media and world rulers!
Imagine the shock of arriving in hell and discovering that salvation was only a few words and actions away and you knew this but ignored it all!!
Our Lord created you with a majestic plan for your life, made before the foundation of the earth. He created every single atom in your body. He has the keys of heaven and hell and controls your eternal destiny. Do you think it’s a good idea to take heed of His word?
I took this picture as a storm approached in the Etosha Game Reserve. One little plant anxiously awaits revival! This is the eastern desert section.

Shalom and grow in grace!
