Scriptural Declarations!

We plead together: and declare that we are justified by Your Word and Blood. (Isaiah 43:26)

No weapon that is formed against us shall prosper; and every tongue that rises against us in judgment we condemn. (Isaiah 54:17)

We “shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.” (Psalms 118:17)

Daily Prayer For Pres. Trump:

Lord, Put your ministering, protecting and guardian angels around President Trump and protect him his family, staff, presidency from all harm and evil. Give him 4 more years. Help him kick out the serpents and scorpions! Expose all tricks, traps, traitors, impeachment, and assassination attempts and stop them.

LORD YOU ARE THE STRONG MAN, USE PRES. TRUMP TO BRING JUSTICE AND CLEAN OUR LAND, JUST AS SAMSON USED THE JAWBONE OF AN ASS!

We ask all this in Jesus’ Name. Amen

MOLOCH AND BAAL WORSHIPPERS.

Lord,

I pray that you would send out the ministering, protecting, guardian angels to destroy evil in principalities, powers and rulers of darkness and evil in high places!

I specifically pray you send out the angel/s of Revelation 9:1 and 20:1 who have the key of the bottomless pit to the [DUMBS] deep underground military bases the Moloch and Baal worshippers who torture, kill, eat and drink the blood of humans in sacrifice to their god! I pray you destroy their hiding places even those deep in the earth especially their high technology used for evil purposes. Cause their empire of murder, evil sex, molesting children, sex trafficking of humans, distributing drugs and stealing money around the world to be found, arrested, indicted and swift hard justice to be served this year!

I pray you help righteousness to find and serve justice beginning in your house and extending to the top of the pyramid of evil. Help America to “turn from our wicked ways” so you can heal our land.

I ask this in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

The Feast of in gathering

Leviticus 23:39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.

At the end of the age the Lord will give the order to gather the wheat into the barn.

40 And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days.

On the one hand this is a feast of victory and rejoicing.

41 And ye shall keep it a feast unto the Lord seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

This is the only feast that lasts seven days (seven years?)

42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:

This is future tense, this feast is a dress rehearsal for what is coming.

43 That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

Woe to judges who record unjust and oppressive decisions

Isaiah 10:1 Woe (judgment is coming) to those [judges] who issue evil statutes, And to those [magistrates] who constantly record unjust and oppressive decisions, 2 So as to deprive the needy of justice And rob the poor of My people of rightful claims, So that widows may be their spoil And that they may plunder the fatherless. 3 Now what will you do in the day of [God’s] punishment, And in the storm of devastation which will come from far away? To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your wealth [for safekeeping]?

A judge ruled that Trump has overvalued his property when he got a loan (which he paid off with interest). The banks that gave him the loan said they did their own due diligence and they are not accusing Trump of any crime. Still despite a complete lack of victims Trump has been ruled guilty of fraud. Of course this will be appealed. But the whole trial rests on a judge deciding his Mar A Lago property is worth $18 million and not $1 billion. So if the ruling were to stand Trump could transfer the property to his son and save close to $500 million in tax liability.

Independent lawyers are stunned by this ruling saying they don't know what to say as they have never seen anything like this before.

Lord Jesus we look to you for justice, remember your word to fulfill it.

What will heaven be like?

I don't know what happens after the millenial reign but we do know what this thousand years will be like.

1. It is a sabbath rest, that tells us many things.

and

2. It is the wedding feast. We have been having dress rehearsals of the wedding feast when we celebrate the Lord's table.

According to 1Corinthians 14 every saint is supposed to bring something to the meeting, a psalm, a hymn, a prophecy, a word that the Lord spoke to you, etc. The Lord's table is supposed to be like a love feast where everyone brings an experience of the Lord, just like in the OT where everyone would bring an offering, the priest would sacrifice it, they would cook it, and then everyone got to eat some like a big barbecue.

We have had six thousand years of experiences that we will get to partake of. We will laugh, we will cry, we will rejoice, this will be the best feast you have ever attended and we will get to know our brothers and sisters, and it will be amazing.

Now suppose a brother or sister shows up and has nothing to share? That would be like showing up the wedding feast without wearing a wedding garment. You will be tossed out.

9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.

10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

What is sin?

I recently posted this brothers exposition on the Hebrew word for sin. He said it was composed of four characters: Door, Coiled snake, Alpha, and Omega (the Hebrew equivalents of the first and last letters which is Jesus' signature). So what could this mean?

1. Over the target -- During the war bombers could fly hundreds of miles without issue, but once they were "over the target" then everything was fired at them. For example, suppose you are a lonely college student, it seems no one cares about you, but then you see a gospel tract on a table, pick it up to read and all of a sudden the guy at the next table is your friend advising you to not read it? Or you sit down to pray and immediately the phone rings. Or Roe v. Wade is overturned and you people acting demonic and unhinged. Jesus said "the gates of Hades shall not prevail against the builded church". The gates of Hell refer to this snake coiled up by the door. When Satan goes ballistic you know you are over the target.

2. Jesus is the antidote -- It could be that what they are saying is that the cure to the poison is the Alpha and Omega. Sin and shame can lead to confession and repentance which in turn leads to being saved. Jesus is the brazen serpent, we lift Him up and all those who are bitten by sin can look on Him and be healed and be saved.

3. Satan is trying to poison your relationship with Jesus -- It could be that the ultimate aim of sin is to poison you towards Jesus. Satan doesn't care if you are "good" or "evil" just so long as you are not in Christ. How many people have heard that they can't be a Christian because... Doesn't matter what the "because" is, that is the goal of sin. Many think Tucker Carlson was fired because he was publicly talking about Jesus. I was a teacher in NYC, you would definitely get fired if you publicly talked about Jesus while in any way being identified as a NYC teacher. How do you do that, you do it with lies about Jesus, the alpha and omega.

So consider why Jesus was crucified, He said "destroy this temple and in three days He would lift it up". The Jewish leaders took that to mean he was insulting the Jewish temple instead of understanding it as the temple of His body. He was crucified for that word He spoke, not for any violent act. Why not bring up the fact that He had driven the money changers out of the temple with a whip days earlier? Wouldn't that have supported their claim? No, because it exposed them as having turned a house of prayer into a way to scam people. They were using the priesthood as a license to steal. The serpents bite puts Jesus to death and also puts out this lie that Jesus is a violent extremist whose real mission is to destroy all that you hold dear.

But what is the result? Jesus is crucified, dead and buried and then on the third day He rises, just as He said. Later when you are experiencing death, perhaps a disease, or the death of a loved one, or financial ruin, or any kind of death, and all that you hold dear is destroyed. Then you can turn to Jesus and learn the truth that Jesus is the God of resurrection.

4. The ultimate hypocrisy -- Imagine Satan now says "big deal, He is the creator, of course He can destroy His creatures". Think of the hypocrisy in Satan leading a rebellion against Jesus, the Son of God, and then when it is clear he has lost and will spend eternity in the lake of fire he says this. So let's examine this lie. The glory is not in God the creator defeating Satan but in God's creation, man, who was made a little lower than the angels, defeating Satan. The real glory is Jesus as your captain, taking someone like you that was mocked and ridiculed by Satan as he abused and tormented you and raising you up so that this built up church with Jesus Christ as the head becomes a warrior that defeats Satan. But it is true that if God the creator just forces His will on you that is not so glorious, you have to pray, you have to ask Him, His will has to become your will.

I drove down through Washington and Oregon yesterday and the evidence of Noah's flood was just amazing. I am a trained Geologist and I had read about the area, so it was as though I was seeing the flood. Below Spokane you begin to see these sand hills about 20 feet high, these are ripple marks from the flood. Ripple marks are proportional in size to the depth of the water flowing over them. They grew in size till I found some that were 200 feet in height and at this time I could see massive dry river bed channels, so big that the people in the area probably didn't even know what they were. In these massive sand hills you could see giant rocks sticking out in all kinds of directions. You could tell this was one very violent and raging flood. But then I came to the Columbia gorge. This was obviously formed by the glacier. It was a U shaped valley with sheer cliffs cut out of basalt, a black igneous rock. From the car I was guessing it was lava flows but it could have been intrusive, I would have needed a closer look. But this was a very strange formation because draped on top was tons and tons of tan sand. I could not see any sandstone formation, and the tan sand was definitely not from the basalt. How did it get draped over this gorge from top to bottom. It turns out after investigating a little that by the time you get to the gorge this flood had grown to a thousand feet deep and was dumping sand from the top to the bottom of the gorge as the water slowed down. I came to Portland this week to distribute bibles, we have 45,000 we want to pass out here, and just a few days ago I saw a video of looting in Philadelphia. It reminded me of the Days of Lot. Imagine living in Portland, standing on the evidence of Noah's flood and yet living as though you don't fear God's judgement?

PROPHECY-- UNWALLED NATION


Jeremiah 50: 41-43 41 Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth. 42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon. 43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.

My son, THE JUDGMENT OF MYSTERY BABYLON HAS COMMENCED AS THE ENEMY I HAVE RAISED UP IS NOW POURING INTO AN UNWALLED NATION. I have softened the heart of the king and blinded his eyes. He does not think the INVASION is real. Instead, the king thinks he is helping to end climate change. Soon the enemy will rise up and take this nation down. WAR! WAR! WAR! is now upon this nation. CIVIL WAR - as the people fight over the INVADERS' rights. RACE WARS - as the people have believed the lies of leaders - dividing the people by skin color. WORLD WAR - as nation against nation divide the world into ten regions of power.

My son, never has the world been so deceived as the hordes from the bottomless pit continue to influence men and drive them to destroy each other. The blood will flow like water, and every man, woman, child, and animal will be in SHOCK AND TERROR as they witness the brutality of demon-driven men.

My son, many in My body will not be ready for the CARNAGE OF WAR. The people of Mystery Babylon are so deceived they will not even see the destruction coming. Many in My body have fallen for the lies and believe the people INVADING from the north and south are just wanting a new start. I TELL YOU NOW - THEY ARE MY ARMY OF JUDGMENT UPON THE UNWALLED NATION. THEY WILL SHOW NO MERCY AND WILL TEAR ACROSS THE LAND LIKE LOCUSTS IN A WHEAT FIELD - DESTROYING AND DEVOURING EVERYTHING IN SIGHT.

My son, ALL THINGS ARE NOW IN PLACE. - The bear is ready to strike. - The dragon is ready to strike. - The army of locusts are almost ready to strike. When I raise My finger up - Mystery Babylon will fall. I say now, REPENT! Have your hearts ready to stand before Me. Seek Me and not the world, for this world is going to fall. The man of sin is ready to come on the scene and bring peace to a WORLD AT WAR. DO NOT TAKE HIS MARK - the temptation and delusion will be great. REPENT NOW - THE WALLS HAVE BEEN BREACHED!

Amen. Lord Jesus

Ezekiel 33:10-20 Predictive programming

10 And thou, son of man, say unto the house of Israel: Thus ye speak, saying, Our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we pine away in them; how then can we live? 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

If you watch their movies and TV shows they are filled with this Predictive programming coded in. It makes them think they are so smart that they know what is about to happen and they have been waving this in front of your face for years and yet the masses don’t know. They view this as justification that they consider the rest of the world as “sheeple”. The concept is depicted in the Matrix where this guy begins to see through the code so they decide to “red pill” him and bring him into their little clique.

But now, look at what they are saying in these movies. They are saying essentially that we are all going to die, it will be catastrophic, etc. It will be catastrophic. Maybe tens of millions will die. 50 million people died from the Spanish flu and to most people around the world it was simply a bad year for the flu. It took more than fifty years before people examining death records realized the scale and scope of the death. Suppose 50 million people are dead after September 24th, for the world that is a “speed bump”.

So then what is the point of this event? It reveals what cowards these wicked men are. You will know that they knew, they saved themselves and justified not telling you because “hey, what can I do”. For one thing you obviously can’t do this job of being a watchman to save and protect us.

12 And thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall he that is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sinneth. 13 When I say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his righteousness, and commit iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but in his iniquity that he hath committed, therein shall he die. 14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right; 15 if the wicked restore the pledge, give again that which he had taken by robbery, walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. 16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be remembered against him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

This makes me so angry. What some say is hey, my whole life I was a good Christian, never hurt anyone, went to church on Sunday but just in this one thing, the boss told me not to tell anyone about this coming catastrophe and because of this one sin I will be judged. Is that right? Then they have the nerve to point their finger at someone who was a gang member and repented and got saved, or a woman who had an abortion and then repented and got saved. They point out that this person or that person sinned for years and got their sins forgiven so why can’t they just do this one little sin. (Also note that this portion is a direct contradiction of what many teach as "once saved always saved". I don't want to go down this path because there are wonderful critiques and rebuttals to this teaching already and I see it as peripheral. However in brief I believe Christians need to do 3 things to be raptured -- confess that Jesus is the Son of God, Love Him -- spend time in His word, in worship, in prayer, in fellowship, this is how we are sanctified and transformed, and finally Listen to Him meaning you hear His speaking to you and you do it, Obedience. Don't say you love the Lord if you don't do what He says to do. One thing he says is to not abandon the gathering together especially as you see the day drawing near. Another thing He says is that we are His witnesses. For example, I came to Portland, Oregon this week to hand out Bibles. There are about 40 of us here, and today I was in a team of two, we passed out over 700 Bibles and a number of NTs. Yes, I think the Lord could come any minute, but my thought is if the Lord comes today nothing I would rather be doing than handing out the word of God.)

17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal. 18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die therein. 19 And when the wicked turneth from his wickedness, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. 20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

The Lord is going to judge everyone of us according to our ways. Let’s begin by looking at this “good Christian” who is submitting to his boss to allow millions to be kept in the dark about the coming calamity despite it being their job to warn people of these calamities. What do you think is a “good Christian”? Being religious? Having the appearance of being holy without the reality? A good Christian has Jesus Christ living within them and they listen to Jesus and call Him Lord. You called your boss Lord when you listened to him instead of the Lord in your spirit. Now let’s consider these people who were slaves of sin but ultimately were rescued from that slavery by the Lord and gave their life to Him and then testified to others warning them of the impending doom. Of course the Lord will rescue these, they are witnesses of the savior, they worship Him and call Him Lord.

Ezekiel 33:21-33 They hear thy words but they do them not.

21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten. 22 Now the hand of Jehovah had been upon me in the evening, before he that was escaped came; and he had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
23 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 24 Son of man, they that inhabit those waste places in the land of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance. 25 Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes unto your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land? 26 Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbor’s wife: and shall ye possess the land?

This is their plan and it is also written into their predictive programming. They will come out of their caves and bunkers to inherit the land. In their mind they will own everything or else can buy it up for nothing. In their mind they will stand upon the sword of the Lord. They are an abomination. Their concept is that they are free from sin in the same way a wild animal or brute beast is free from sin. Murder and adultery are simply a means to an end. This fully exposes their lies. They justify themselves saying we don’t warn everyone because we don’t want to create a panic, we don’t want hysteria. In reality what they really want is to be fully prepared for this event so that they could profit mightily. They realize from history that events like this are what empires are built on. Knowing ahead of time is a tremendous gift, you don’t share that gift with the unwashed masses. They are an abomination to God.

27 Thus shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As I live, surely they that are in the waste places shall fall by the sword; and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured; and they that are in the strongholds and in the caves shall die of the pestilence. 28 And I will make the land a desolation and an astonishment; and the pride of her power shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, so that none shall pass through. 29 Then shall they know that I am Jehovah, when I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, because of all their abominations which they have committed.

The cities will have roving gangs with guns, like Mad Max. Go to waste places and you will be attacked by lunatics and individuals who will devour you. Stay in your little bunker and you will die from pestilence. Look at how stupid they are, they built these beautiful underground shelters and forgot one thing -- sewage. If the city is destroyed where is your running water? Maybe you have a three month supply but after that what happens? In the end they will realize they are being judged for all the abominations they committed. That those people they thought were unwashed masses and deplorables, those people had they been warned could have helped save not only themselves but you also.

30 And as for thee, son of man, the children of thy people talk of thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from Jehovah. 31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but do them not; for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their gain. 32 And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument; for they hear thy words, but they do them not. 33 And when this cometh to pass (behold, it cometh), then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.

There is one other group of people. We have mentioned the 1%, we have mentioned those who agreed to not warn the people, and we mentioned those sinners who have repented and began witnessing that Jesus is Lord. Finally, there are those who are also Christians, they come and sit in the pews, they listen to sermons every week, and they do it because they think it is a lovely performance. We get to dress up, see our friends, be social, and the preacher always has something interesting to say. They never took it to heart. Well, after this event they will wake up. They will realize that was a prophet of God, that Jesus is Lord, that He is the only salvation, and you will see a great revival.

So what have we learned?

Many people are focused on "when" is the rapture, my focus in this blog was "everything but when". I figured there was a whole lot more to know, like a jigsaw puzzle, everyone wants that last piece of the puzzle, I wanted all the other pieces of the puzzle.

This is why I get upset when I listed to channels of the watchmen that have been on this topic for years saying "no one knows". I want to shout "So, tell us what you do know!"

1. David reigned in Hebron for 7 1/2 years before coming to Jerusalem, I think that is a shadow of the rapture taking place 7 1/2 years before Jesus comes to Jerusalem at the end of the age.

2. Jesus began his ministry by proclaiming the year of Jubilee, but by also only quoting half the verse with the other half looking like the tribulation. Therefore I think we will see something similar with the Antichrists ministry proclaiming peace and security at the start of his ministry.

3. We have lots and lots of reasons to think this all begins in 2023 and that it begins with the fall feasts.

4. The rapture will be a very big event in human history. It will rock the world, the governments, the faith, the economy. It will coincide with a horrific judgement on the Great Babylon (the US). The world will be in shock and mourning afterwards, and only then can Antichrist come out boldly "and be revealed" to those in the world. The covenant being confirmed for seven years with the many happens after the rapture, not before it. You will see them set the table, but it doesn't take place until after the rapture.

5. It would seem that the rapture is the year of Jubilee with the prisoners going free. Generally the year of Jubilee is proclaimed at the day of Atonement and then seven days later the slaves go free.
