Eight years ago on 10th May 2016, Patsy Southway described a Domino Effect of this vision
“A couple of weeks ago I was sharing with a few close friends about an open vision I had received from the Lord. In the vision I saw a long wavy line of dominos. Several, of which, were different colours; with their usual number of dots on them. I sensed that each domino had been strategically placed in preparation for the momentum that occurs when the first one is touched.
Then God said to me that during the month of May many will see the beginning of a ‘domino effect’ in their lives. As God’s finger touches the very first domino; the rippling effect will be breathtaking!”
Republishing it, I mused there may be more than one trail of ‘prophetical promises’ Patsy saw and possibly having a counterpart elsewhere; that is, not of developments within God’s Kingdom on earth, but a trail of exposing evil schemes in politicians!!
‘I cannot but think one of those domino-trails is in the secular world in view of recent, unexpected exposures of political activities. Eg….President Obama’s unwelcome interference in the UK/EU Referendum and now his aide Ben Rhodes’outrageous boasting about their manipulating media lackies with fiction and duplicity over the Iran nuclear deal. For the reasons behind this expose read here. (White House Christian correspondent Bill Koenig often refers to incompetence and lack of required experience and skills of Potus’ aides.)’
NOW 8 YEARS LATER ONE TRAIL OF DOMINOES HAS LED BACK TO ITS START!!
‘Under the Obama-Biden Administration, then-Secretary of State John Kerry allegedly blocked multiple FBI arrest operations against people linked to Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs. That was in order to spur further negotiations on the stalled, controversial Iran nuclear deal with the US.
That’s according to unclassified, internal FBI emails recently obtained by Sens. Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin) and Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), and through legally protected whistleblower disclosures.’
Quite an indictment, so continue reading their brief demand for full accountability and accompanying links by clicking here.
Here’s more exploding exposures consequential to FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago, note that Dan Bongino has served in the US Secret Service; also covering my long-standing suspicion on Obama’s actions with Iran, as in Reprise of my ‘take’ on Iran vs Israel:
‘Of course, this was all a lie. Dan Bongino was one of the first fire back at the corrupt intelligence agency.
Dan Bongino: This is absolutely a big deal. Don’t buy the bull… otherwise. It was not a standard op. The MAL raid was an unprecedented action with significant potential for confusion and blue on blue issues and conflict. It also involved competing equities between federal agencies (FBI & USSS) with equal statutory claims to interrupt the other’s activities. Anyone telling you otherwise is either dumb, or playing dumb. I’ve done more deconfliction with Russians in a foreign op I did for the USSS than the FBI did in their search warrant at MAL. Only a dumbass would pitch the “it’s the standard paperwork” line. Go serve a search warrant at the White House in the cocaine case while filling out your “standard paperwork” and see how that works out for you. Wake up!

Citing Fox News:
FOX News text continues on 4th Amendment:
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
Telegram response continues:
“..And it’s why the FBI & DOJ must go before a judge for guidance & clarity on the issues surrounding ANY raid before it is approved.
BOTH OF THESE AGENCIES HAD THE AUTHORITY TO USE DEADLY FORCE!?!
So can you see the problem with using ANYTHING “standard” in a situation that’s ANYTHING but standard??
ZERO rationale for a judge allowing standard protocol that basically sets up the perfect scenario for two groups of ARMED FEDERAL AGENTS (who are only trying to do their jobs) to engage in a BLOODBATH.
And sadly, maybe that’s the exact scenario the DEMS & DEEP STATE wanted??? 🤷🏼♀️
It’s not fair to Secret Service Agents.
It’s not fair to FBI Agents.
It’s not fair to President Trump.
It’s reckless lawfare being openly used to weaponize the DOJ & our entire Judiciary Branch of Government.”
“Now for the main event of the evening guys. My phone was blowing up yesterday as this was unfolding, and so when I went back and looked at what was prophesied. Well my jaw kind of dropped – and you have that ‘oh dear God’ moment in your flesh for a moment when you see it – but there is some very serious prophecy fulfilling right now in the earth and in Iran. But I believe this prophecy fulfilling is going to begin to change the landscape of Iran which is going to affect the entire Middle East!”
Prophecy script as published in Amanda’s Ark of Grace website (click title)
“Before we get into prophecy–I am going to point out 3 events leading up to this.
Keep in mind this is happening within this 50-day window that starts at Passover and goes to Shavuot on June 11, 2024, where the Jews received the law.
50 is the jubilee, and it was the 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur War in October 2023 when Iran’s proxy Hamas brutally attacked Israel.
It was October 7, 2023, when the attack happened, May 2024 is the 7th month since the attack and the start of the war.
The foreign minister and 7 others are dead, there is that number 7 AGAIN.
50 is the jubilee, where captives are set free, what was stolen must be returned, and land must be given back to the people.
Big Ben’s hands freeze at 9 am for more than an hour before the famous clock sounds the wrong number of bongs in a major malfunction two years after it was refurbished.
I not only did a Live broadcast after this happened, but I did a short that is up on all our platforms.
And, I said when Ben stops (Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin)–Judah begins (David was from the line of Judah). I also shared that this was a sign warning of a major changing of the guard that was about to happen throughout the earth.
Also, because you cannot make this stuff up, right before the Kentucky Derby, on May 4, 2024, a horse is injured and taken out of the race. This horse’s name was No More Time!
Ben stops, and then NO MORE TIME is taken OUT OF THE RACE!!
5.17.21 [US date-style; May 17th] “The funneling of funds the channels that make a tunnel from Iran to Hamas shall be disrupted says the Lord of Hosts, and the advisors to the Ayatollah shall be struck. There shall be leadership in the hour, for this is a tipping point says the Lord, shall be weighed and unexpected strikes to leadership of those who threaten Israel, of Canada, and of the US, watch Germany as well says the Lord in this hour.”
6.9.22 “And says the Lord of Hosts, Israel is about to make a very BOLD MOVE AN URGENT MOVE AND IRAN SHALL HAVE ONE OF THE LARGEST HITS AND LOSSES IT HAS EVER HAD AS THEIR WEB SHALL BE HIT IN ITS CORNERS AND TORN DOWN, SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS. WATCH AND SEE AS IT ERUPTS ON THE NEWS AND LEAVES IRAN IN A VERY VULNERABLE POSITION. JUDGMENT HAS COME TO THE HOUSE OF THE AYATOLLAH AND ENTERED ITS HALLS, SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS.”
2.10.23 “And says the Spirit of the Lord this day,the leadership of Iran is on a crumbling pedestal and the innocent blood they shed is being accounted to them for their wage for their bridge is about to fall down for the people are desperate and crying out, I the Lord hear their cries and I the Lord am moving upon my firstborn to covertly assist the people of Iran as leadership shall be removed under mysterious circumstances as some deep within in the government of Iran are assisting Israel, the Bonhoeffer’s, who see the sheer evil of such leadership. I the Lord am protecting them and they are assisting Israel for a BIG STRIKE AND BLOW IS COMING AND IT SHALL RATTLE THE UN HOW SUCH WAS DONE AND CHINA SHALL PUFF UP ONCE AGAIN AND BE HIT IN THE CORE THAT DEFLATES AND DECOMPRESSES THEM YET AGAIN.”
2.26.23 “I, the Lord thy God, made the Philistines bow, I, the Lord thy God, made Israel bow. I, the Lord thy God, am beginning to break the back of Ayatollah, because Iran will bow. And I, the Lord thy God, am raising up a plan and a strategy in Israel that is going to surround Iran on all sides. And it is going to encapsulate them, says the Lord. It is going to encapsulate them and it is going to cause the handshake that was seen with a red nation to be severed and broken, says the Lord. Because demons squabble, says the Lord, demons squabble and you shall publicly, says the Lord, see that squabbling begin.
For I am calling through the darkness and the noise, Benjamin, son of my right hand. I am calling through the darkness and I am going to cause you to turn to my Word and to know in whom your salvation is. And he shall know it and at some point in his life he shall declare it, says the Lord. For he is coming under that yoke and he will be the ox for me, says the Lord, that topples the regime of Iran. He shall be the ox for Me that helps plow (sic) the fields in America. For your nation is meant to be a friend and a brother to Israel. And that needs to be reconciled in this season, says the Lord. For they have attempted to separate it, they have attempted to sever the relationship and destroy it. And in this season, by My balm, I, the Lord, shall begin to soothe the wounds and the boils that are broken out and heal that relationship. And those that want to be Sauls and go after their own people, you shall fall by your own sword in this season. You shall, You shall. For you have turned to the way of Cain.”
4.19.24
It was the 6th hour that darkness came over the whole land.
It is the 6th month since the war started in October 2023, in the 6th month darkness comes over the land of Israel, and Iran fires over 300 drones, rockets, and missiles at Israel. 331, 331 in Hebrew represents Emmanuel which means God with Us!!
Now, in the 6th month darkness has come over the land, when Jesus Yeshua was on the cross it was in the 6th hour that darkness came over the whole land.
Darkness came over the land until the 9th hour (3:00pm) the 9th plague over Egypt was DARKNESS.
The 6th plague over Egypt in Exodus 9:8-9.
Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from a furnace and have Moses toss it into the air in the presence of Pharaoh. It will become fine dust over the whole land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on men and animals throughout the land.”
DARKNESS coming over Iran in the 6th month since the war, the 6th hour.
The 6th plague was boils breaking out in the land, watch for this as well.
If we are in the 6th month of this war in Israel and it’s April, then July would be the 9th month (the 9th hour). July 4th in America is when we gained our Independence from tyranny.
May is the 7 month–7th hour that darkness is over the land.
4.22.24 “And the Spirit of the Lord says this day! Fear not for I am with you, be not dismayed for I AM your God, behold I will strengthen you, I will uphold you with MY righteous right hand says the Lord of Hosts. Be ready MY children, gird up your loins in an hour of tumult, and shaking, and prideful rebellions rising in the earth, leaders saying in their hearts I will ascend as high as the heavens, I will destroy the nations who call on the name of the Lord, in their hearts, they have entertained such a pious position says the Lord. Thus says the Lord pride cometh before destruction and a Haughty Spirit before a big fall says the Lord, for serpents, have risen up for a strike, the prince of Persia, that spirit has risen up in a rebellion to stir the people of that land says the Lord.
Thus says the Lord, the rise shall bring a hard fall for the Ayatollah’s court says the Lord for the courts of nations that have welcomed the persecuting spirit in and have entertained its offers says the Lord, those nations in this time are set to be threshed says the Lord.
Thus says the Lord, the underground church in Iran, your shackles are about to come off says the Lord, your redemption draweth nigh says the Lord, call unto ME people of Iran for your leaders are bringing your nation under a curse, WOE unto them says the Lord WOE unto them, WOE unto their meeting with Russia, Woe unto Russia says the Lord, you trifle too close to MY LAND AND MY BUSINESS SAYS THE LORD, YOU SHALL BE ROPED AND TIED AS CATTLE FOR HOW YOU THINK YOU WILL INTERFERE YOU SHALL BE BOUND FROM GOING AS FAR AS YOU SO DESIRE, SAYS THE LORD.”
8.31.21 ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA “There shall be a very threatening and destructive statement made by the leadership of Iran during this time as that principality is stirring them up to indeed make a power grab at such a time. However, says the Lord of Hosts, the net they are planning to lay for Israel they and Hezbollah and their funders from other countries who desire for Iran to do their dirty work who desire to make Iran an extension of themselves for such destruction against other countries and peoples, so I the Lord thy God shall gut open their plan and reveal the inward most parts as 2 terrorist groups have met in secret and are looking to make a super-force of terror of power.”
‘In the Arab world, a video of a “fortune teller” Laila Abdellatif, who predicted the helicopter crash of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi a few months ago, is being circulated. Let’s wait and see how fast she will be accused for being a Mossad agent…’
“A major leader in Iran will die, and more to come. The plans they had against America and Israel will be discovered and announced. Yes, they were paid with money from this fraudulent government [RB: US admin!] to commit another terrorist attack on your land and Israel. Iran was not only compensated very well financially but was given things to help with their nuclear power, too. Iran, I will judge you in this hour, and everything you have will be taken from you. I will bring you to your knees with nothing left to fight back.”
[NB see also re “Iraq, the same goes for you…. I will bring your nation to nothing in this hour. Your plans will be destroyed completely Me, saith the Lord. You thought you would silence Israel and the United States, but now you will be silenced. These are the days of Haman. – Syria will be in the news. Watch to see what was taking place in that land. Judgment will be seen big time, and you will see what was hidden in that land from you, United States. More covert operations against you? Biolabs? Yes…”]
“The Israeli Army will be in your news. They stopped an invasion from taking place, but My hand was there with them during this, when actions their enemies and the world were making against Israel. Your enemies thought they could sneak into this Nation to cause utter destruction and chaos. That’s never going to happen when they are up against Me, saith the Lord of Hosts.
Turkey: this country will be in your news. Truth is breaking out all over this world.
An Iranian leader will be in your news. Death has come to him. Judgment has hit his home, and there will be more like him in the coming days. This is the season of the Great Harvest. They are all reaping what they have sown upon this Earth.”
“Iran is about to come out shouting and threatening My Nations of the United States and Israel with their power and weapons. They’re at the point of weakness, Iran thinks. But Iran can’t see what is hiding, and they will never see it coming. Iran’s failure is about to be seen. It doesn’t matter what it looks like right now, My children. Do not fear. All they have are words. Iran is about to fall big time, and they will never recover from this fall, saith the Lord of Hosts.”
Rarely do I bother with statistics but I got nudged to see how many items I’ve posted about Iran and checked the category list, only to be amused at the ‘God-incidental’ number 212, as shown >
NOW, lets dig into this summary of the rationale to my monitoring events in the Middle-East, as posted on 27th August 2015:
In case you may be unaware of updates to my covering remarks on Joel Rosenberg’s Iran performing its own nuclear inspections, I will briefly relate what happened. Then we’ll get to the real heart of this issue, which I’ve kept an eye on since mid-1980s.
First, we note the latest headlines on the Iranian regime’s hollow threat, in order to appreciate several prophetic words received over the last two years by Julie Green: Continue reading →
The previous post refers to my learning as a non-Christian about the city of Jerusalem being the focal point of attack by Iranian elite forces – both in past rehearsals and actual airborne assault from 331 missiles and drones last Saturday evening, the close of holy Sabbath. That fact alone proves Iran approved and supervised their satanic barbarians’ atrocity at dawn on Jewish holy Sabbath immediately closing the Feast of Tabernacles.
Now, in connection with The Almighty’s eternal covenant with the Jewish nation, consider His heart, intentions and protection of Jerusalem, as given in open vision and orally to prophet Zechariah 2,500 years ago (emphases mine): Continue reading →
Not only have we gone full circle in my blogging with Tucker Carlson’s interview with a Palestinian priest about Israel, mirroring the beginning of this blog in 2011 with posts on the error of Replacement Theology, but also now full circle back to mid-1980’s. Continue reading →
NB: FIRST PUBLISHED 13 YEARS AGO, 3rd November 2011
COPY of pre-blog email (as in ‘About‘).: Re below – developments in this serious saga with Iran warrant our closer observation. Therefore, I’m widening circulation beyond friends who watch out for Israel.
Whether current developments are a psychological ploy or not, at long last this deeply critical issue has moved away from Israel’s ‘go-it-alone’ option and into international involvement.
Psalm 2The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom – Why do the [a]nations [b]rage, And the people plot a [c]vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed,[d]saying, 3 “Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us.”
Psalm 83Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel – 2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult; And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” 5 For they have consulted together with one [c]consent; They [d]form a confederacy against You: 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagrites; 7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre (Lebanon)
Ezekiel 38Gog and allies Attack Israel5 Persia, [b]Ethiopia, and [c]Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; 6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.
Ezekiel 39Gog’s Armies Destroyed – 5 You shall [c]fall on [d]the open field; for I have spoken,” says the Lord God. 6 “And I will send fire on Magog and on those who live [e]in security in the coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the Lord. 7 So I will make My holy name known in the midst of My people Israel, and I will not let them profane My holy name anymore. Then the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. 8 Surely it is coming, and it shall be done,” says the Lord God. “This is the day of which I have spoken.
83Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult; And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

Here’s an apposite play on ‘gaslighting’ – psychological manipulation and control of other people’s thoughts and behaviour through deceit and blame-shifting:
‘The interviewer asked, “So can you promise another October 7?” The interviewer was referring to the Hamas attack on Israeli villages on that date in which 1,200 Israeli civilians were slaughtered.
Osama Hamdan, the Hamas official, responded, “I can promise that a war of liberation is coming, not just another October 7.” The interviewer then asked when this war might occur. Hamdan then said, “I do not think it is far off.”
Later, he opines:
‘Now, in light of the coming Second Signpost, and the possible Psalm 83 war to occur in parallel, we must consider that this “war of liberation” IS the Psalm 83 war.’
According to David Parsons, VP & Senior Spokesman of ICEJ, in July-August 2023 edition of Word From Jerusalem:
‘Recently, Israeli authorities released the latest Aliyah figures showing that over 100,000 new immigrants have arrived in Israel since the start of 2022, marking the highest number since the mass Soviet Jewish influx three decades ago. Over these past 17 months, some 60,000 Jewish immigrants have come from Russia, 20,000 from Ukraine and the remaining 20,000 from other countries worldwide.’ (Aliyah to Israel Hits 30-year Peak)
Undoubtedly, this rise will continue as a result of the intensely anti-Semitic marches worldwide, and mirrored by uninformed, gullible younger generations.
GOG-MAGOG COMPONENT
NOW note involvement of Iran’s direct involvement in negotiations for releasing hamas captives – in total alignment with Islamic doctrine of dimmi status of non-believers, clear preferential treatment is given to muslim abductees. Everyone else as normal human beings are too inferior!
Apart from the documented fact muslims started this war, their utter lack of compassion is abundantly evident. It unequivocally disproves all claims whatsoever to their god being identical to the Almighty God of Jews and of Christians!!
Extract from Cordelia’s report (emphasis added)
‘…Behind the scenes, Thailand officials have been quietly working away at trying to get their citizens freed, attending meetings in Qatar and Iran.
At the centre of the Thai negotiating team is Lerpong Sayed, a Thai Muslim who, in an exclusive broadcast interview, told Sky News Hamas was justified in taking hostages.
Dr Sayed in recent weeks has split his time between his home country and Iran, where he spoke to Hamas five times.
“We went there to negotiate as normal people, not politicians. Hamas saw this. They saw us as Thai Muslims,” he told me in an interview that provides a window into his high-level talks.
“They promised that if there was a ceasefire Thai people would be released in the first group.
“Now we can obviously see Thais are among the first citizens freed compared to 20 other nationalities.”…’
Yesterday, on Telegram’s Behold Israel Amir Tsarfati quotes:
‘PA senior official Jabril Rajub: “The events of October 7 were a natural reaction to oppression. The occupation and its crimes are responsible for the incident. The action was part of the Palestinian war of defense and the next outbreak will take place in the West Bank.”
And to end with a message of unity: “Hamas is an integral part of the political fabric. The current campaign is the beginning of unity with the aim of establishing a Palestinian state on all Palestinian territories” Rajub, a senior minister was a star in the “Partners Campaign” of the Geneva Initiative!”
What Rajub is hinting is that the military force of the Palestinian authority (that America so diligently helped build and fund) might do to Israelis near the West Bank what Hamas did to Israelis near Gaza.
The U.S. administration must wake up! The Palestinian authority is more of the same! It’s Hamas, ISIS Nazis!’
This comes as absolutely no surprise to Christians familiar with Bible prophecy, or to those comparatively few wide-awake folk who treat political rhetoric with contempt.
DEMONIACAL HOSTS HAVE TAKEN CIVILISATION BACK 1,400 YEARS TO THE DARK AGES! CITIZENS & LEADERS MUST NOW TAKE A STAND AGAINST EVIL.
I pray the Peace of Jesus that passes all understanding may cleanse and guard our hearts, minds and spirits after exposure to sub-human barbarity in screenshots supportive of Neil Mackereth’s post on the existential threat against Israel, and mine on our choice to follow the Living Lord, or submit to satan and end up in the lake of fire.:
This post was prepped for publication five weeks ago but got waylaid by many events, so kindly accept my apologies for the delay but I’m taking the opportunity to change the lead-in with this reminder of the mini-holocaust – lest we forget!.
Thus, every individual participating in marches and social activities with anti-Israel motivation thereby condones and endorses sub-human barbarity committed in the October Massacre, some of which is reported below, but details of hamas’ war crimes are now logged as above.
Hello dear readers. Please excuse my being rather simplistic about what we’re familiar with, but I want to cover some common ground for further thought. In mulling over first thing with the Lord what’s in mind for blog-day, this got dropped on me..: Continue reading →
My prime focus in covering Israel’s self-defence is news of Iran’s role. So I’m pleased that Mark Davidson’s assiduous research – upon which I’ve often re-blogged under the tag ‘4Signposts’ – is bearing further fruit on this particular aspect in his latest post.
So I recommend your reading his report by clicking the above image, and which opens as follows:
‘If one does not know the Four Signposts as written about in Daniel Revisited, one can mistake Mideast events that have little significance prophetically, as big events. And vice versa.
We witnessed this two weeks ago: a relatively small event on October 18 was mistaken by many as an event of huge significance.
One week later, we witnessed the inverse. On October 25, a relatively significant event was dismissed by many as minor. That event is the subject of this post…’
And note well part of his conclusion, emphasis mine:
‘Just as we saw a minor event recently blown up out of proportion by people, people miss things again by assigning a “ho-hum” to a meeting of some leaders in Beirut which is actually fulfilling Scripture.’
It was our usual long weekend with just a few intervals for being online and thus posting only quick news updates on Richard’s Watch Telegram, but I jotted above title for next post. First. however a…
CLARIFICATION:
Neil Mackereth’s The Existential Threat to Israel is a tripartite briefing and each part is not to be taken in isolation and thus taken out of context and get misconstrued, even in considering scripture, for which Chris Moyler provided extensive citations:
It is vital to be aware of how this situation relates to Islamic end-times doctrine. Neil subsequently writes me, “I am certain that Israel faces an enemy that is intent on its annihilation; ie. an existential threat. I know Israel will survive – the Bible tells me so.”
A few for a quick scan through. First in case you thought Neil and I are making it up + confirmation of my ‘two jigsaw-pieces’ through a word brought by prophet Julie Green:
“Dear Friends (writes Chris Moyler),
James Goll is a seasoned and trustworthy leader in God’s House. In this video [RB: not attached] he speaks prophetically about this present Gaza War. He believes that it will expand and draw in all the nations that immediately surround Israel.
He says clearly that he believes this to be the fulfillment of Ps 83. Verse 4 is an almost word for word statement of the Hamas Covenant, which specifically states that Israel will be wiped from the map.
The Psalm concludes with a prayer for the destruction of Israel’s enemies, specifically in order that the SOVEREIGNTY OF ALMIGHTY GOD might be displayed through Israel’s victory, and that HIS NAME might be hallowed in all of the earth:
17,18 “Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace, that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.”
And yet there is also a prayer for God’s grace to extend to those will will lose in this war:
Psalm 83:16 “Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O LORD.”
We want to see Hamas utterly destroyed, ditto Hezbollah, because these movements lead the peoples away from the only One who is able to give life to all mankind, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel.
Amen
Finally, I continue to believe that this is NOT the final Gog-Magog war. Satan would like it to be so, because what he most fears is the emergence of the sons of God in the earth, Christ’s pure and spotless Bride.
Ezekiel 38:8 ‘After many days you will be mustered. In the latter years you will go against the land that is restored from war, the land whose people were gathered from many peoples upon the mountains of Israel, which had been a continual waste. Its people were brought out from the peoples and now dwell securely, all of them.’
please note:
-“restored from war,”
-“its people were brought out from the peoples”
-“now dwell securely.”
-“ALL OF THEM.”
Since King David and King Solomon, there has never been a time when ALL of the people of Israel have dwelt there securely, in THEIR OWN land. Therefore, I continue to contend that this must be the condition of the Land and the Jewish people in it, prior to the final Gog-Magog war. That war is exclusively in the FATHER’s timing, and NO-ONE ELSE’S.
HE ALONE sets the calendar of the Earth!
And, of course, Satan wants to prevent the VAST end time harvest of souls for the Kingdom.
But judgement has already been given to the saints, and he will NOT be allowed to “change the times.”
Dan 7:21,22 ‘As I looked, this horn made war with the saints and prevailed over them, until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given for the saints of the Most High, and the time came when the saints possessed the kingdom.’
So let us banish all fear from our hearts, and let us boldly proclaim God’s goodness over and above these troubled days.
Amen, Chris x
Psalms 83:16 Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O LORD.”
Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel
A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.
83 Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult; And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
5 For they have consulted together with one [c]consent; They [d]form a confederacy against You: 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagrites; 7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; 8 Assyria also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah
9 Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon, 10 Who perished at En Dor, Who became as refuse on the earth. 11 Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, 12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves The pastures of God for a possession.”
13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind! 14 As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame sets the mountains on fire, 15 So pursue them with Your tempest, And frighten them with Your storm. 16 Fill their faces with shame, That they may seek Your name, O Lord. 17 Let them be [e]confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish, 18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, Are the Most High over all the earth.
Neil Mackereth’s Part 3 of The Existential Threat to Israel must be so powerful it caused my printer to jam and stop working… a real STOP PRESS!! After working at a desktop screen it’s always easier to read hard-copies of long articles, and so upon its receipt I wanted to peruse Neil’s latest at leisure over an afternoon ‘cuppa’ – BUT LOOK, it’s too powerful to print!
My printer seized up!The previous sheet had emerged with bent corner, but Neil’s item got solidly jammed – and ripped on both sides. Once cleared, it works normally!!!
In the mid-1980s I knew hardly anything about Bible prophecy when presented with two jigsaw-pieces, a book and TV documentary. What I saw directly related to what Ezekiel heard from the Lord prophesying an attack upon Israel led by ‘Gog’ and ‘Magog’. Since beginning to write upon End-times 15 years ago, I’ve posted news occasionally on the Gog-Magog alliance but over double on events relating to Iran.
AND it’s becoming increasingly obvious that Iran is directing attacks on those other two fronts before Israel has to decisively remove hezbollah’s rockets throughout Lebanon.
As a retired high-ranking army officer Neil Mackereth considers Israel’s options to deal with and defend itself from such heinous evil and possible outcomes. Thus, along with latest news he tentatively considers the Gog-Magog prophecy and concludes:
“Undoubtedly, one of Satan’s objectives, in his attempts to undermine God’s redemptive plan, is to stop the fulfillment of Biblical End-times prophecy. To that end, he is seeking to annihilate all Jews so that Jesus has no Jewish Kingdom to which to return and rule. The Bible shows that he will fail.
“We may appear to be in an unstoppable downward spiral to disaster, but God’s plans will not be thwarted. It has never been more important to understand the signs of the times, watch for the fulfillment of prophecy, and to be ready. JESUS WILL RETURN. Halleluiah!”
Bear that in mind for the next post wherein we consider another friend’s response.
IRAN’S INVOLVEMENT
Now, however, look at more pointers to Iran’s active role as Gog-Magog principal nation along with ‘Gog’ Russia in the present-day, not necessarily precisely as prophesied by Ezekiel – in reverse chronological order:
