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 537: September 1st 2020.
Knowing the time (Part 4)
Introduction:
The next few editions are critically important. I strongly suggest that you pay careful and close attention to every word. Of course, the previous “Knowing the time” editions are important as well. We are now in times of rapid prophetic fulfilment.
If you know your Bible very well, you will know the time!
●The Bible says our Lord will “show us things to come.” (John 16:13) ●The Bible says He will “show you things before they come to pass.” (John 14:29) ●The Bible says we are to “know the time” (It’s a command). (Matthew 24:32-33) ●The Bible says we are to “know the times and season.” (1 Thessalonians 5:1) ●The Bible says that a ripening fig tree (Israel) will show us when the end is near.” (Matthew 24:32)
●The Bible declares that the “secret things belong to the Lord, but other things He has revealed to us.” (Deuteronomy 29:29) ●The Bible says that He will “reveal these things to His sons, the prophets.” (Ephesians 3:5, Amos 3:7) ●The Bible says that “we are not in darkness that this day should overtake us.” (1 Thessalonians 5:4)
In this edition I will deal briefly with the arising of false prophets / watchmen. The duration and timing of the coming wars of prophecy, the nations involved, what weapons will be used, what the outcome will be and who is victor.
False teachers, prophets and watchmen:
The collective, compromised church has opened the door for the devil. They have empowered the god of this world to defeat the church if only partially.
The true church has an enormously high calling and responsibility. It is the guardian of morality, of culture and of truth. It is the light of the world.
1 Timothy 3:15 “That you might know how you ought to conduct yourself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar, prop, support and foundation of truth.” (Amp)
Do you know what happens when you remove the pillar, prop, support and foundation of a building? It is not going to stand in the storms.
Over time the church has become consumed with the world’s materialism and how to be blessed with cars, boats, planes and lots of financial prosperity. Thankfully today, their superficial gospel has become so transparent it is exposing the mega-frauds in the pulpits.
(I believe in biblical prosperity and the need for certain material things, but it is the excessive over-balance and the manipulation involved that I’m at war with.)
With a focus on the very things Satan, as the god of this world, offered our Lord on the mountain of temptation, the church has accepted it all and failed to see the enemy coming in with his agenda.
The reason these days are dangerous is not just because of the onslaught of the evil one again Israel and the church, It is because the evil has secretly infiltrated some churches, like a cancer.
Vipers in the pulpits and their parrots in the pews have been singing “me, myself, I and my money.” The church has fought for money while its freedom is being eroded from under its nose.
How do you release the power of the devil into the church? – Just do nothing. As you lay down your spiritual armour and weapons, your focus shifts and the enemy becomes your friend. You become truly spiritually blind, and a sitting duck for the devil, or a falling Humpty.
Self is the god that displaces God in man. The un-crucified self has Satan in camouflage in the driving seat. A key to identifying self and his Satan in the church is the absence of the cross and holiness.
We are now seeing an abundance of false prophets and false watchmen, who see nothing but their own thoughts, in their blinded and confused eyes.
Identifying false prophets: They are seldom right. They never admit their error. They are self orientated, blind to the full truth, legalistic in opinions. They are soft on sin. They reject the authority of other mature solid men of God. They cause division. They do not have the fruit of the fullness of the Spirit. They use manipulative words. They are unable to see the damage they do to the prophetic word and the church. And much more!
Amazingly all these false watchmen never ever apologize for being continuously wrong and the damage they do.
Teachers must learn what is of prophetic significance and what is not.
The return of the cursed Nibiru:
The Revelation 12-sign teachers blindly followed each other in proclaiming that the world was to be annihilated by the planet Nibiru (twice the size of Jupiter) that was hurtling through space and due to strike the earth on some particular date, back then.
Of course it did not, or on any of the numerous other dates that they then put forward as impact date - because the planet does not exist.
Regular readers know that I warned of the curse attached to Nibiru over and over again.
Well, nothing has changed. Some watchmen / teachers have revived Niburu as a threat to the earth.
Nibiru is not a planet! It is a Babylonian satanic god who rides and arranges and organises the constellations to produce signs. He is the god of “crossing over” or “transition”. He was known in mythology as the “great heavenly sign”.
Nibiru is also known as Marduk, who brought the half human Annuaki hybrid humans to the earth when a giant planet approached and hung over the earth, to offload these hybrid humans in pre-adamic times. This is a counterfeit of the Adam and Eve story.
Marduk /Nibiru, was also known as “King of the earth,” because he stayed behind on the earth to create a “global human elite, with these new people when the UFO-like planet left the earth.
These Nibiru descendants were known in Egypt as the “guardian watchmen”. They were the watchmen of the signs in the stars. By the way, “Babylon” in Hebrew means “The gateway of the gods.”
One of gods of the Anunnaki people is “Anu” , known as the Great sky father, whose daughter was Ishtar (Easter)
There is much more to these myths and legends, but let me warn you that if you get into this stuff in any depth you are messing with strong curses. – Good luck!
So, why the return of the great Nibiru deception now, to the big fools?
It is because we are in the era of great deception, great evil signs, great misdirection, great lies and importantly, a UFO excuse for the rapture! “Nibiru took them”!!
Occultation is an astronomical term describing a situation when one object is obscured by another. It applies to the blind-spot area of the observer.
Many of these modern teachers and watchmen are under the spell of occultation!
Prophesied wars and Nuclear war:
Firstly, the coming wars, including WW111 are not the same as the war of Armageddon. The former occur just before or right at the start of the tribulation, while the latter is right at the end. But there are some similarities, which is why I have combined these wars in this discourse.
The reasons for the big wars to come are all related to Israel. In the war of Gog and Magog it is because the invading nations come to take plunder. This is primarily agricultural plunder, livestock and gold and silver, which relates to things of value.
But the primary reason is because God puts “hooks in the jaws” of Russia and draws them in! (Ezekiel 38:4)
By the way, many teachers are claiming that the nations allied with Israel, do nothing but sit on the sidelines and protest. (Ezekiel 38:13) But the protest “Have you come to take plunder,” can just as easily be a cause for their military involvement! In fact this is implied in the remaining verses.
The following verses speak of these prophesied, wars as taking place very suddenly.
Isaiah 29:5 “The multitude of your foes shall be like fine dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passes away, yes it shall be in an instant, suddenly.”
Jeremiah 6:26 O daughter of My people, clothe yourselves in sackcloth and roll about in ashes! Make mourning as for an only son, and most bitter lamentation, for the plunderer will suddenly come upon us.”
Revelation 18:8 “Her plagues will come in one day – death and mourning and famine, and she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.”
►The following verses imply nuclear warfare. If not, they relate to massive destruction:
Zechariah 14:12 “The people who fought against Jerusalem will be struck. Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, and their eyes and their tongues.”
Zechariah 5:1-11 The entire discourse relates to possible nuclear war. (More in Edition 206. HERE)
Isaiah 13:13 “I will shake the heavens and the earth will move out of its place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts in His fierce anger.”
Isaiah 66:15-16 “The Lord will come with fire and with His chariots like a whirlwind, to render His anger with fury and His rebuke with flames of fire...The slain of the Lord shall be many.”
Ezekiel 39:9, 12 “Those who dwell in the cities of Israel shall go out and set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and arrows, the javelins and spears, and they will make fires with them for seven years...For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, in order to cleanse the land.”
Micah 1:4 “The mountains will melt under Him, and the valleys will split like wax before the fire...”
Joel 2:29-30 “...I will pour out My Spirit in those days, and I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, fire, and pillars (column) of smoke.”
The original word for “pillar / column” is: Strong’s H8490, “Tiymarah”. Meanings: Column, pillar with smoke at the top like a palm tree. (More in Edition 206. HERE)
Ezekiel 38:9 “You will ascend coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
Ezekiel 38:16 The war of Gog and Magog sees the enemy nations, “a mighty army coming against Israel like a cloud to cover the land.”
These two verses above are a clear reference to air-power.
Joel 2:20 “I will no longer make you (Israel) a reproach among the nations. I will remove far from you the northern army (Russia) and will drive him away into a barren and desolate land, with his face towards the eastern sea and his back towards the western sea. His stench will come up, and his foul odour shall rise, because he has done monstrous things.”
The duration and end outcome of the war:
The antichrist is not seen in WW111 (Gog & Magog) while he is at Armageddon. Yeshua is not seen at WW111, while He is at Armageddon, standing on the Mount of Olives.
►Ezekiel 38:8 Maintains that this war takes place when Israel is “dwelling safely”.
This original word is “betach” and can mean a feeling or sense of safety. Today those returning to Israel do so because they feel safe.
►Ezekiel 38:11 maintains that the war occurs when Israel is a “land of un-walled villages, without bars and gates.”
This term is comparative. In Ezekiel’s days, almost every city and village had a large wall around it with secure big heavy gates that were closed at night. This has not been the case for modern Israel at all. The verse in no way refers to the barriers to keep Palestinian militants out.
Ezekiel 39:9 speaks of a period of seven years for the burning of the weapons used in this war. That implies nuclear weapons, but it also gives us a substantial clue to the duration of the war. The war would obviously have ended at the time the seven year cleaning up begins. That means the duration of the war was extremely short.
The war occurs when Israel has been regathered in the later times / end-days. The results of the war see the spiritual awakening of Israel. (Ezekiel 39:29) So we know that it is in our day and has not happened yet.
We see the same outcome here with the Psalm 83 war, which is why I maintain that it has not occurred yet. It may well be part of the Ezekiel 38 &39 war. Note the outcome in the verse below:
Psalm 83:18 (End of war) “Men will then know that You, whose name alone is Lord, are the Most High over all the earth.”
Ezekiel 38:23 “I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” (Ezekiel 39:7, 21)
We know that the tribulation period will be filled with war. We know that the end outcome of the tribulation will be the ultimate victory of our Lord and His “battle axe” – Israel. We know that the end outcome of the tribulation will be the Millennium of peace.
The Bible makes it clear that huge numbers of Jews and Gentiles will be saved in the tribulation. We know that the salvation of the Jews goes into overdrive right through the tribulation period.
The greatest end results of all these wars will be the sudden eye-opening, veil-removing and salvation of the Jews, so that they can become God’s great evangelists throughout the rest of the tribulation period.
The wars happen suddenly. The eye opening to Messiah happens suddenly! What incredible drama!
Isaiah 66:8 “Who has heard of such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? As soon as Zion travailed (tribulation) she gave birth to her children...Rejoice with Jerusalem...”
(Let me say again, that this verse above is not the church being born-again as the blind Revelation 12-sign teachers, and other proponents of cursed replacement theology teach. It speaks of Israel!)
Zechariah 3:9 “...I will remove the iniquity of that land (Israel) in one day.”
The ultimate victorious outcome of all future prophesied wars is right here:
Deuteronomy 33:29 “Happy are you O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord, the shield of your help and the sword of your majesty! Your enemies shall submit to you, and you shall tread down the high places.”
Finally
Only a dispensational, Zionist Judeo Christian biblical worldview works, with all the pieces of the puzzle fitting together perfectly.
In this edition I have presented to you the very likely order of very soon-coming events, with numerous verses to back up each major point. There may be some variety in the order, but it won;t be much.
In all of this you can and must live in peace. Ultimate, everlasting peace is the final outcome of all the drama. But you can walk it now to an extent. Die to self, the world and the demonic and you are free and at peace!
This is one of my early elephant paintings combined with one of my eagle photographs.
Shalom and grow in His Grace!
