In weighing biblical and contemporary prophecies with current events and variety of insights into the known and implicit causes of the Russian invasion of The Ukraine, I offer the following in regard to observations/interpretations of current events:
Prophecies relating to president Putin’s present and future actions akin to a modern version of ‘The Treacherous Trio of Ezekiel 38′ DO NOT PRECLUDE the Lord using ‘Vlad the Bad’ for His own purposes in dealing with satanic strategies and operations behind the globalist agenda of the New World Order, aka Deep-State, as promulgated in the World Economic Forum’s ‘Great Reset’ agendas, about which I’ll blog next.
In view of events in The Ukraine, a clarification of my linking the prophecies Veronika West brought on ‘The Bear’ to the Gog-Magog alliance (Russia, Turkey and Iran) of Ezekiel chapter 38 may be of help.
“Watch and Pray, for did I not say that The Bear Nation has emerged from a time of political hibernation with a hunger for War and an appetite for greater territorial occupation and domination among The Nations?
Yes! And did I not say that the Dragon Spirit would strike, and The Bear Nation would invade to take a rich and fertile land?
I say Beloved, Watch and Pray, and pay close attention, for in the days ahead the right hand of The Bear Nation shall shake hands with the right hand of the nation of Turkey and a powerful alliance will be created, and then the two shall come into agreement to form a threefold cord of allegiance with the Beast of The East with a desire to destroy the land flowing with milk and honey.
But I say, Nay! Nay, for when their diabolical plan begins to unfold, a great unraveling will take place, and the demonic threefold cord shall surely be broken, and the strength and military power of The Bear Nation shall be brought to nought.…”
Although it refers initially to the Bear’s neighbouring nation, I noted the reference to a 3-fold alliance involving another and different neighbour as well as what is indubitably the bellicose Muslim regime of Iran – exactly foretold in Ezekiel’s hearing the Lord about the God-Magog alliance and its intention of invading Israel. Also, the oft-used scriptural description of the Promised Land is of a ‘land flowing with milk and honey’.
AND I recalled how it states the Almighty will put a hook in Gog and his alliance!‘ ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords…’
That post linked into a previous Update bearing news of Iran’s president visiting Putin, who is backing their stance in atomic weapons negotiations in Vienna.
THUS, in the midst of the deeply distressing Russian invasion of The Ukraine – and many important aspects ignored by mainstream media – we mustn’t lose sight of how the words brought by Veronika, and those events, are in accord with Bible prophecy!
Praise and thank The Lord The Almighty for His continual goodness, gracious mercy and favour
Ten years ago today I ventured into the public realm of blogging by launching Richard’s Watch as a way of informing people about how current events are foretold in Bible prophecy. Soon it would also cover contemporary prophetic words and visions
I’d already been updating personal friends about End-times by email since February 2009 as a result of having ‘heard’ upon opening my Bible, “This is ALL about to be fulfilled!”. (Details are in my very first email The End-game Is In Play.)
My decision to start writing was confirmed by a visiting prophet. However, around the time of dreaming about the Kingdom being set up and learning it relates to a prophetic word Bill Johnson brought on a change in the Church in the UK, as recounted here, I was getting increasing nudges to start a blog.
Therefore, to celebrate this 10th anniversary I thank you personally for visiting and wish to welcome you, especially if you’re a regular reader, as in my very first post below: Continue reading →
This refrain was repeated and then again, and yet again and again, over and over. The young man led worshippers higher and higher; as though with eagles spiralling upwards on heaven-bound thermals…
This was no short chorus, but many minutes devoted to praise. Immediately, therefore, I recalled 20-odd years ago being high over the Mediterranean and looking down on southern France. Suddenly, I heard lots of loud voices filling the void beyond the Earth – all singing that same popular earthly chorus. And there was a proclamation from on high!
As an almost new Christian I’d never heard such truly awesome, harmonious singing as that of the angelic host. Harmony upon harmony kept being added as their praise of The Captain of Hosts, the Lamb of God, soared up, and on and on, through the heavens as well as wrapping around Earth. Utterly unforgettable!
[NB.This is a copy of post published 24 January 2013 but now posted afresh to introduce a few posts on this topic based upon the following awesome revelation…]
Upon checking my notes I found that first dream/vision had occurred exactly 21 years before (ie. 6 January 1992). Could this be of significance, not only that 21 = 7 x 3 but also because that day is known as The Epiphany of the Lord – the celebration of God’s revealing Jesus to the world as its true God, Messiah and Saviour. (For an excellent explanation click here).
Additionally, I’d had an email about dreams many Muslims are having of Jesus. Also, I was prompted to dig out and then blog about notes for a prophetic word, 2011: an ‘epic generation’ – and noticed it too had been publicly delivered on the same feast day!
So, perhaps this reminder happening on the 21st anniversary of the vision means the declaration I heard is now about to be fulfilled? The situation to which it referred has since grown far more grave, as indicated in the PM’s recent remarks about al-Qaeda.
Whatever was it I’d heard? My brief notes made at the time are as follows:
The BBC late evening news on 6th January 1992 announced that leaders in the Muslim community wanted to establish a Muslim parliament in Britain, but:
In a dream that night I saw Western Europe, mainly France and the Mediterranean, as if from the space shuttle and heard the popular worship chorus ‘All Hail The Lamb’ being sung, as if in the atmosphere! This praise was repeated many times most melodiously, as though by angelic choir, and seemed to spiral upwards. Then I heard a very loud, authoritative voice declare,“AS COMMUNISM FELL SO, TOO WILL ISLAM FALL!”
Many years later the opening events of the Arab Spring led me to share that ‘event’ with a few friends. By then I’d discovered a couple of prominent prophetic voices had had a similar revelation. [My interpretation of this dream proved to be of encouragement to a lady missionary in Marseilles and an evangelist in Egypt; this email refers.] Continue reading →
I regret to report there’s now further proof of that once great nation and leader of the Western world falling into international contempt – and without any reference to Biden’s policies being the biggest threat to Ireland’s prosperity as it falls out with the EU!!!
Upon giving this Blogday to the Lord before getting up, I mulled over my mental in-tray of items noted this week and yesterday’s online chat on prophecy standards. Which is quickest and easy to write? – Israel under attack – Iran cont’d – Arizona vote-checking – UK anti-Bible thought-police (uniformed and collegiate) – US/French military objections to national breakdown – End-times update – return focus to UK prophecy/news? I’ve copied some headlines to my pc but which is top priority – and anything incoming?? (eg further debate on an American paper ‘Prophecy Standards’ arising from November’s election – and it did continue!).
Next – and unusually for me – I boot up my new, post-loss replacement phone and hit one of twenty home-screen icons that give direct links to informative sites.
I hit attorney Sidney Powell’s Telegram and note two items already posted for today the first of which CONFIRMS one of those options with most welcome developments.
More than 120 retired flag officers are calling on Americans to rally and reject the nation’s excessive embrace of a radical leftist agenda, particularly the “antiracism” efforts the left weaponizes to suppress dissent.
“Our nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776,” wrote the prominent group of 124 retired generals and admirals. “The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty.”
‘Come with me through this sequence of possibly prophetical ‘nudges’ that won’t go away since yesterday. First, upon spotting this item published the previous day, my immediate reaction was to think is the American military going to put a stop to this sort of tom-foolery? Maybe, they’re going to have to put a stop to it by deposing the puppet president and re-installing President 45?’
After quoting WND’s ‘Biden’s War on the Military’ I blog, ‘last night this notified on my phone was so ‘coincidental’ that it grabbed my attention right away:’
“I believe that you’re about to see something big about the military – something very big, and I think more is going on than anybody realizes…and God’s going to do something huge here.”
Similar deep concerns about the internal state of the nation that supported the colonial states in their breaking away from Great Britain in 1776 have been published:
FRANCE
‘Twenty retired generals and scores of ex-officers have sparked a political furore in France after calling on President Emmanuel Macron to stop the country from descending into chaos and “civil war” at the hands of Islamists.’ [Read in full]
ISRAEL
As usual, mainstream media were whinging about Israel aggressively protecting itself yet ignored Hamas’ 35 rocket blitz of 3 weeks ago PLUS over 1,000 since!!
Living near the Sea of Galilee Gilaad Rosinger post this yesterday
As reported in-depth Tuesday, ‘DEBKAfile’s intelligence sources reveal that, throughout this interchange on Monday, the Palestinian organizations of the Gaza Strip were being directed by a shadowy master: Iran had been managing the crisis through its Lebanese proxy Hizballah from Beirut. In fact, Tehran had set up at Hizballah HQ a joint war-room manned by the Revolutionary Guards, Hizballah and the Palestinian Hamas, Popular Front and Islamic Jihad. The intensive efforts made by Egypt, Jordan and Qatar to negotiate a ceasefire slammed fruitlessly against this wall.’
NEXT we’ll look at the significance of this prophecy of military action as connected in Sidney Powell’s message…
The prophesied exposure of political rot and corruption continues!
After a week starting with a long Bank Holiday weekend and many personal matters I’m still catching up on a few things and now seen the following article. It confirms the impression told in the previous post of waking up with a strong sense of the betrayal of Israel (and America too). It tells how Kerry continued unofficial activities with Iran and doubtless with the connivance of Obama-Biden:
PUPPET KERRY’S TREASON?
Ivan Pentchoukov’s report continues:
“He did it all the time,” Kellogg told Just the News when asked if Kerry sent a conflicting message to Iran. “By just the very fact that he went over there, and the fact that he talked to [Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad] Zarif, sent a very, very strong counter-message to what we were trying to do out there.”
“We read cables and we understand what’s going on,” Kellogg said. “We talked about it in the Oval Office several times. It was not helpful what he was doing, because he was basically countering every message we were putting out there and trying to push them into some type of negotiation.”
“….I was in there many times when the president would reach out to people like Macron of France, he would reach out to Boris Johnson in UK and trying to get them to be an intermediary to talk to the Iranians to get us into some type of discussions. And we always had a pushback,” Kellogg said. “Because we had people like Kerry out there talking to Zarif and others.”
In my post of last Thursday on Donna Rigney’s prophecy that confirms exposures of corruption through forthcoming ‘leaks’ I gave some screenshots of supportive media headlines. In referring to the above I said details of this leak’s source are especially interesting with respect to the Gog-Magog alliance.
In actual fact, I’d awoken on Tuesday 27th April with a sense of American betrayal of Israel and so the news from USA about John Kerry’s chats with Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zaif may be of direct relevance. You may recall my blogging on Kim Clement’s Two Presidents prophecy that US would no longer be reliable ally.
Later that day, I was alerted to Karen Edeling’s comment about Kerry on my post of 23 April on Prophetic Words for USA about the possibility of US military taking action. She refers to this video of Robin Bullock posted 16 April in which he claims to have ‘overheard’ plotters deciding to use John Kerry in their secret schemes:
(From 0:40) – “I heard the name ‘John Kerry’…Now something is moving in the Spirit concerning him. I don’t know exactly what’s about to take place, but I know his name’s being thrown around in the spirit-world right now. And I’m hearing things discussed in private by people for they say,
“We make our plans, let’s use Kerry, let’s bring him and use him this time. He’s no good for anything else – let’s use him in this area. I hear them talk, I see their faces, for their strategies now are going to use a new puppet – let’s use John Kerry. Yes, yes.”
(At 1:58) – “But “NAY” says the Lord. “I am going to unleash a torrent, a river into this earth…”
So, the later news-leak of John Kerry having revealed Israeli attacks upon Syria to Iran’s FM can’t be coincidental. However, we need to examine such a claim carefully and so I dug out the original article on this matter:
Previously a senior writer and war correspondent for the Wall Street Journal for 17 years based in the Middle East, Farnaz Fassihi is now based in New York and she tells how she learned about this private, leaked tape:
‘The recording, of a conversation in March between Mr. Zarif and an economist named Saeed Leylaz, an ally, was not meant for publication, as the foreign minister can be heard repeatedly saying on the audio. A copy was leaked to the London-based Persian news channel Iran International, which first reported on the recording and shared it with The New York Times.’
The part relating to John Kerry is very brief BUT is undated and its position within the disclosure suggest his remarks were made relatively recently, yet it was more likely they were made during his tenure in the pre-2017 Obama administration (and on Kerry’s activity I’ve blogged many times). I’ve also covered some of the Israeli and US actions against Iran from DebkaFile reports and The Four Signposts.
Here’s Farnaz’ reference set in context:
‘On the night that Iran decided to retaliate against the United States for the killing of General Suleimani, two Quds Force commanders went to see the Iraqi prime minister, Adel Abdul Mahdi, to inform him that in about 45 minutes Iran would be firing missiles at a military base where U.S. troops were stationed, Mr. Zarif said. The Americans knew about the strike before he did.
‘Former Secretary of State John Kerry informed him that Israel had attacked Iranian interests in Syria at least 200 times, to his astonishment, Mr. Zarif said.
‘He also pointed to the cover-up of the Guards’ downing of a Ukrainian jetliner in Iran that killed 176 on board on the morning after Iran attacked the air base. The Guards knew immediately that their missiles had hit the plane, but only admitted to it three days later….’
Kerry’s subsequent denial is, in my opinion, possibly a tenable position because it was well-known that, for its national self-defence, Israel had to make frequent forays against Iranian and Syrian positions. From Zaif’s account of his rivalry with the Iranian general and the fact of total military oversight nationally and internationally, he could possibly have been ignorant of the truth about that Syrian situation!!
EZEKIEL 38-39, GOG-MAGOG ALLIANCE
However, Farnaz’s earlier paragraphs make even more informative reading (emphases mine):
‘In a leaked audiotape that offers a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes power struggles of Iranian leaders, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said the Revolutionary Guards Corps call the shots, overruling many government decisions and ignoring advice.
‘In one extraordinary moment on the tape that surfaced Sunday, Mr. Zarif departed from the reverential official line on Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, the commander of the Guards’ elite Quds Force, the foreign-facing arm of Iran’s security apparatus, who was killed by the United States in January 2020.
‘The general, Mr. Zarif said, undermined him at many steps, working with Russia to sabotage the nuclear deal between Iran and world powers and adopting policies toward Syria’s long war that damaged Iran’s interests.
“In the Islamic Republic the military field rules,” Mr. Zarif said in a three-hour taped conversation that was a part of an oral history project documenting the work of the current administration. “I have sacrificed diplomacy for the military field rather than the field servicing diplomacy.”…
‘In the portions that were leaked, Mr. Zarif does praise the general and says they worked productively together in the prelude to the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. He also says that by assassinating him in Iraq, the United States delivered a major blow to Iran, more damaging than if it had wiped out an entire city in an attack.
‘But he said some of Mr. Suleimani’s actions also damaged the country, citing, as one example, his moves against the nuclear deal Iran reached in 2015 with Western nations, the United States among them (the Trump administration later renounced it).
‘Mr. Zarif said Russia did not want the agreement to succeed and “put all its weight” behind creating obstacles because it was not in Moscow’s interests for Iran to normalize relations with the West. To that end, Mr. Zarif said, General Suleimani traveled to Russia to “demolish our achievement,” meaning the nuclear deal.
Mr. Zarif took issue with General Suleimani on other fronts, criticizing him for allowing Russian warplanes to fly over Iran to bomb Syria and for moving military equipment and personnel to Syria on the state-owned Iran Air airline without the knowledge of the government and deploying Iranian ground forces to Syria.’
THE PLOTTERS: BIDEN AND CIA ?
Last week I was able to read Iran International’s Twitter platform and spotted this intriguing reference to Biden’s CIA director Burns meeting in Iranians in Iraq!
SO let’s keep watching for the fulfillment of Biblical and contemporary prophecies.
Melanie Philips, a no-nonsense journalist who “follows the truth where it leads,” writes on Friday:
‘Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of President Donald Trump, was a senior foreign-policy adviser in the Trump administration. Now an op-ed by Kushner published in TheWall Street Journal has caused jaws to drop.
‘Kushner was a key mover behind the Abraham Accords between Israel and the Gulf States. This agreement, brokered by Trump, was the most significant move towards peace in the Middle East for the best part of a century.
‘In parallel, Trump’s US withdrawal in May 2018 from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, coupled with the reimposition of sanctions and more severe ones later added, was gradually bringing the fanatical and genocidal Iranian regime to its knees.
‘Since President Joe Biden took office, however, there’s been mounting alarm that his administration is re-empowering Iran, dumping on Israel and undermining the newly birthed alliance between Israel and its former foes in the Arab world.
‘On Iran, the Biden administration has declared its intention to rejoin the nuclear deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. This effectively gave a green light to an Iranian nuclear bomb with only a few years’ delay. It also funnelled billions of dollars into Iran’s coffers, enabling it to ramp up its regional power grab, and pursue terrorism and wars by proxy in Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq and Yemen.
‘Restarting this deal would be a disaster. Yet Kushner’s article was a paean of praise to Biden for his approach. He wrote approvingly of the Biden team’s “relationship” with Iran, and said the American offer to rejoin the deal was “a smart diplomatic move.”
‘By the “relationship” with Iran, he presumably meant that some of the key players behind that deal, including the US Secretary of State Tony Blinken, are now in the Biden administration. But forming a relationship with a regime that has waged a four-decade war against America is inescapably an act of appeasement…’ (continue reading article).
HOWEVER, could we consider this “curious change of heart” may be a subtle way of keeping the finger of the pulse in case the Biden and Democrats’ administration does collapse, as prophesied, and thus Donald Trump is called back into presidential office? OR, is he even acting as such behind the scenes??
‘Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said Thursday that President Biden appears to be so focused on trying to prove President Trump wrong on several accounts, including Mideast foreign policy, that it may backfire on him.
‘Ratcliffe told host Trey Gowdy on “Fox News Primetime” that foreign policy is one specific area where Biden and his administration have essentially taken the exact opposite tact as Trump did during his presidency.
“The Biden administration seems so intent on proving Trump wrong they are going to prove him right at the sake of national security, literally snatch defeat from the jaws of victory,” he said.
I want to ensure all readers don’t miss a related discussion plus some headlines. First, ‘High Plains Drifter’ Tim Shey kick-starts contributions on the first link above with this screenshot from Twitter:
‘Kiwi’ Alex asks, “Tim, Someone said there is an apocalypse of authority going on right now. Kamala zero popularity amongst own party, but Obama likes her. Who is pulling the strings?”
Time replies, “Alex: I believe that Obama/CCP is controlling the Biden-Harris-Democrat-Satanic Deep State Complex and that the Satanic Globalist Deep State control Obama-CCP.
“I also believe that the U.S. Military is running aspects of the federal government with much input from President Trump. And, of course, the Lord is with President Trump.
“The Lord is doing an excellent job of exposing the wicked and waking more people up to the wickedness and corruption of the Democrats and Republicans in the United States and the wicked politicians and church people (Deep State Church) throughout the world.”
To which ‘yours truly’ this British blogger adds, “Agree 100% Tim. There’s clearly foreign policy schizophrenia over Iran, as I’d blogged some weeks ago re Kim Clement’s ‘Two Presidents’ prophecy.”
Tim says, “Richard: Schizophrenia is a good way to describe what is happening in the United States. Schizophrenia means “splitting of the mind”. We have a split nation: one camp follows the Lord, the other camp follows the devil: the Lord is separating the wheat from the chaff (of course, the Lord has been doing this for centuries, but now it is becoming much more pronounced and President Trump is the catalyst).
“About Iran and Syria: I believe either President Trump or the U.S. Military called in the airstrikes. As far as I know, Biden and Harris didn’t know it happened and had no control over the airstrikes.
“Biden is an Ahab, Harris is a Jezebel. Ahab was killed in battle (which means Biden will probably die soon–he already is brain-dead and politically non-existent); Jezebel was killed when her eunuchs threw her down from the porch and the horses trampled her to death (which means Democrats and the media will attack Harris and kill her politically–“Evil shall slay the wicked” Psalm 34:21). Jezebel also was eaten by dogs, which is a horrible way to die (this means that the extreme left wing (BLM & Antifa) will attack Harris (civil war in the Democrat camp)).
“When the Presence of God enters the devil worshipper’s camp there is always confusion: remember when Gideon attacked the Midianites? Gideon and his men smashed the jars with the torches and put the Midianites in horrible confusion and the Midianites began killing Midianites (Judges Chapter 7). The Presence of God is where the great work is done. If we stay in the Presence of God, Satan and his minions will be remain in confusion and eventually defeated.
“The U.S. Senate is a joke; the House of Representatives is ridiculous. The U.S. Supreme Court is compromised. The so-called government is not governing the nation. What is governing this split nation is the Lord, President Trump, the U.S. Military and the power of the Holy Ghost. The executive branch of the United States is not in Washington, DC but in Mar-a-lago, Florida.”
Therefore I say, “We’re seeing eye-to-eye in para 2 Tim as it’s the logical explanation for US activity, which I implied few posts back and am collecting some material. For your last para you obviously keep up with the blogs.” (Winter White House… refers)
Tim “…When I first heard about the airstrikes on ISIS in Syria, I thought why would Biden bomb ISIS? Then I saw a video with Mark Taylor and Chris McDonald (The McFiles Network); they saw the press conference and they said that Kamala Harris did not have a clue what was going on. Of course, Biden doesn’t even know what day it is…”
[First published 11th July 2013, reprised for this special Feast of Purim and the Bride of Christ.]
This headline belongs to the story of an orphaned young lady named Esther in the heart of the ancient Iranian, or Persian, empire about 2,600 years ago. It is recorded in the well-known book bearing her name. (Wikipedia explains the national names.) In closing the last post I wrote about the likely relevance of her story to developments in the UK today. Before elaborating, I must outline Esther’s exceptional story.:
About 100 years earlier, the Hebrew people had been taken into captivity from Israel and Judea by Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar. His empire fell to the Medes and Persians (as the prophets predicted) and one of the first actions of king Cyrus was to repatriate exiled peoples and to re-instate their national gods.
The Jews benefited greatly and a few groups returned over subsequent decades to rebuild destroyed Jerusalem and its temple built by King Solomon. Some Jews stayed behind, however, of which Mordecai, a minor official, was one. His great-grandfather was one of the original captive exiles and, later, an uncle and aunt died leaving their daughter an orphan. So, Mordecai looked after his younger cousin as his own daughter. The Bible describes the situation and that, ‘The young woman was lovely and beautiful’ (Esther 2:5-7). Continue reading →
On January 17, a few days before the inaugural event of the new CEO, General Micheal Flynn expressed his confidence that Trump will serve as president in 2021. He also stated that we are in a national emergency due to Foreign interference in our elections. They have evidence and proof that Germany, Spain, Italy, Iran, China, and Serbia have committed election interference with the United States of America elections.
General Michael Flynn said, “On the 30th of November, 2020, the FBI and the homeland cyber security agency came out and said that on the 30th of October, 2020, and the 3rd of November, 2020, both, in what is called an intelligence advisory, the FBI and CSA issued an advisory that Iran is mucking around in our election system. They were doing it on the third of November which is the day of the election. The FBI and the Dept. of Homeland Security both said there is foreign interference in our election, on election day by the country of Iran.” [continue via link] GENERAL FLYNN LAYS OUT THE FACTS! — THE MARSHALL REPORT
RB NOTE: Awaking in the fifth hour on dear Nina’s birthday, I couldn’t get back to sleep because these titles dropped into mind as possible sequential news headlines in near, foreseeable future.
‘USA SURRENDERS TO CHINA – BIDEN & DEMS UNDER HOUSE ARREST’
Here’s more: ‘VOTER’S REJECT 2020 ELECTION. TRUMP RETURNS AS POTUS’ – ‘2ND TERM PROPHETS VINDICATED’
But now on booting up PC I find this attached Marshall Report issued at 8am today. In particular I note: ‘…This is a very serious threat and this nation is definitely under attack by foreign nations. Due to the magnitude of the situation, it will take extreme secrecy in the military strategies to arrest this situation and take care of all the players involved…’
THIS MORNING’S HEADLINES SHOW THE UTTER MESS AMERICA IS IN – will ‘Breaking News’ re. Dr Peter Navarro’s comprehensively detailed reports on the scandalous malfeasance in the 2020 election wake the nation up to what’s going on, before America becomes the laughing stock of the world???
There’s extensive, heated discussion on the upcoming US election [2020], and of which my fellow ‘watcher’ John Barber’s Trumpwatch 35: Crunch Times presents an honest, balanced viewpoint.
According to Professor Wayne Grudem, author of the huge tome Systematic Theology on my bookshelf, “every time viewers heard a negative evaluation of Biden, they heard 158 negative evaluations of Trump. For every positive statement they heard about Trump, they heard 18 negative statements” (emphases mine). He doesn’t cite his source but we’ll revisit his opinion later.
Personally, after hearing the Lord say “This is all about to be fulfilled” upon opening my Bible 12 years ago (as recounted in The Endgame is Now in Play), I began paying close attention to events in the Middle-East, especially those related to Bible prophecy. Also, I began emailing some friends and church leaders in order to keep them appraised of the situation. This included monitoring American involvement through weekly reports from a Christian editor based in the White House. Things took a fascinating, surprising turn of direction with January 2017’s change in the US administration.
Yet politics turns most Christians in Britain off because of its nature and public distrust of politicians. However, biased mainstream media makes us not only uninformed – even accepting media’s deceptions – but also disables our grasp of how the Lord and His servants are working behind the scenes. Moreover, much as I respect church leaders, too few appreciate the prophetic.
UNEASE OVER TRUMP – MY CHALLENGE
Consequently, pastors are prone to dismiss prophetic insights, as have national prayer and healing ministry leaders I’ve known! After circulating the video of Trump declaring Jesus Christ is more famous than himself to some local leaders, I got a gentle rebuke in some useful depth from one who cites two scriptures relating to his unease over Trump, and encourages me to look carefully at the fruit of his words, attitudes, values and actions, viz: “I have to say that I struggle to see the values of Jesus or a heart for His Kingdom in what I have seen over the years.”
This is not surprising as he readily admits to not being well-informed on politics and, in view of Trump’s seemingly peculiar character, his cynicism is most understandable. He offers, “I suspect that many have done this for votes or political advantage – and few have actually been in submission to God and on His side. I pray that Trump and Biden both get to this place, and that God’s will is done and His Kingdom comes in the US election.”
We can stand in agreement and I say a definite ‘AMEN’ to his closing prayer! Even so, I can’t let the opportunity go by without sharing some facts for the sake of being better informed.
So I sent a short briefing based upon what I’d already said by email with that video: “In thirty five years watching events relating to Bible prophecy, and involvement in the prophetic for the latter half of that time, plus keeping close tabs on US administrationssince 2009, I do not recall being so blessed with how the Lord graciously used me as this week.”
I since realise my reply, expanded by some post-2009 observations, may be of some help to my readers on both sides of ‘the Pond’.
First, the criticisms based upon:
BRIEFING 1 – re. Scripture
“These people honour me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.” (Matt 15:8) – Reply: “This can refer to Democrats’ leaders Obama and Biden (supposedly Catholic yet a RC bishop of Tennessee asks of Biden, “At your judgment before God, how will you explain changing your position about abortion and how will you explain promoting no limits and allowing all protections removed protecting the most innocent? Will you tell God you supported the ultimate child abuse because of the American Constitution?”)”
“By their fruit you will recognize them.” (Matt 7:16) – Reply: “Some is obvious in Trump’s attempting to return Kingdom values back into public life (eg his Pro-life stance and his supporting ‘March For Life’) and nomination of Amy Barrett for a Supreme Justice, as well as furthering Father’s prophesied purposes for the state of Israel.”
BRIEFING 2 – re. President OBAMA
May 2009 – Early in his first term Obama met Netanyahu to discuss the latter’s 2-state solution for the Middle-East….involved attempts to turn the Arab world and Europe against Israel, and to appease Iran – even to ‘blackmailing’ Israel over its nuclear defence! (Obama wanted to be able to use Iran’s territory for supplying US troops in Afghanistan/Pakistan.) Also, there’s been dismay in Cairo and Riyadh over his courting the terrorist mentors in Teheran. No wonder Egypt and S.Arabia – both kept militarily informed by Israel – and five Gulf emirates turned a deaf ear to Obama’s secret (and 3rd) delegation seeking hundreds of billions dollars investment in US and global economic stimulus plans! That weekend a political furore gripped Washington and frayed Obama’s key policies.
June 2009 – Obama’s infamous Cairo speech to Muslim world included delegates from the banned Muslim Brotherhood who were invited at Obama’s specific request against president Mubarak’s wishes. I express reservations about his claims as a Christian and historian as he negated known facts and gave an Arabic and Palestinian narrative!
These indicated Obama’s direction of travel in being thoroughly anti-Israel, getting MB members in his administration (as well as throwing pres Mubarak ‘under a bus’ and creating a diplomatic rift with Saudi Arabia!) and courting the terrorist regime of Iran.
He was also plainly anti-Christian in taking no action whatsoever against Islamist violence against Nigerian Christians; wanting American black churches to turn away from Biblical principles of marriage; promoting and celebrating lgbt and same-sex marriage nationally and globally; increasing accessibility of abortions and making US overseas financial dependent upon receiving countries introducing legislation to facilitate abortion (Ie. modern-day practice of abominable child sacrifice in worship to false-god Molech.)
During his 2016 campaign, REUTERS STOPPED RECORDING on Sunday (4 Sept) as Donald Trump received a standing ovation at a black churchand praise from African-American Bishop Wayne T. Jackson in Detroit. As Pastor Jackson presented Trump with a Hebrew shawl (tallit), a Jewish Bible, and offered his prayers, the black audience cheered and clapped. As a Reuters cameraman became suddenly aware of the strong impact of the moment, a voice is heard off-camera saying, “He’s getting a shawl!” The cameraman then says, “I’m shooting this, I don’t care what they say….I’ll take a demotion for this“ – but the feed got cut!
Just before his inauguration The Times interviewed Donald Trump with Tory party MP and ex-leader of the Brexit campaign, Michael Gove and reported: ‘Britain and America will get a new trade deal “done quickly and done properly”, Donald Trump said on Sunday night as he promised he would help make Brexit great. The US president-elect praised Britain for voting to leave the European Union, saying: “People, countries, want their own identity, and the UK wanted its own identity”. (emphasis mine)
It’s not so much that Trump trashes Obama’s ‘mobster-style’ threat, made during his visit to support ex-PM Cameron, to send Britain “to the back of the queue” in trade negotiations if we to vote to get out of the EU…more that Trump’s incisive remark about Britons wanting our own identity tallies so closely with a four years-old prophetic word brought by Revd Dr Sharon Stone. His remark demonstrates that, both nations’ new and radically different leadership that’s come into office through exceptionally unusual circumstances, IS ALIGNING WITH THE LORD’S STATED PURPOSES AND DESTINY FOR OUR NATIONS. (Fulfilled Prophecy #15)
Prayer played a major role in the inauguration of Donald Trump. The ceremony featured six religious leaders, more than any other inauguration in history. The list included Paula White, one of his spiritual advisors, Rev. Franklin Graham, Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, Archbishop Timothy Dolan, Rabbi Marvin Hier, and Bishop Wayne T. Jackson.
‘African-American religious and political leaders lay their hands on Donald Trump as they pray for him at a White House reception to mark Black History Month. The US president vowed to deliver ‘abundant’ equal opportunities for all.’
And check out Trump’s dealing with the Nigerian President over Christian persecution:
“There is great hope with President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. They will need our prayers daily because the tasks at hand are enormous and very serious. I rejoice at the change because it has been very tough being in the White House press corps the last eight years.
“I am ready for greater involvement in the pressroom and keeping you up-to-date on what is taking place behind the scenes. Fortunately,Trump, Pence, Conway, Priebus, Bannon, Spicer and the nominees are very pro-Christian, pro-Evangelical and pro-Israel. This is truly a new day for believers in Yeshua.”

IS DONALD TRUMP’s HEART FOR THE KINGDOM? – THE SERIES:
This 10th installment of monitoring fulfillments of my prophetical musing four years ago on the Lord exposing political corruption, covers prophet Tomi Arayomi reporting upon the MSM’s (mainstream media) global misinformation. He begins by reviewing what he and Chuck Pierce prophesied last year about China and needs to cite Australian reports and a single news network in USA for facts on The Biggest Lie You Never Heard…
Streamed live last Thursday 2nd April I watched whilst sunbathing on Sunday afternoon and then the next day read this headline in the Telegraph’s broadsheet:
China’s Orchestrated Disinformation Campaign is Costing Lives, MPs Warn
Political correspondent Amy Jones writes, ‘An orchestrated disinformation campaign by China and other countries is “costing British lives” in the fight against coronavirus, the Chair of the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee has warned.
In a new report MPs claim that China – where the virus originated in an animal ’wet market’ – sought to “obfuscate” over what was really happening when the outbreak began when it should have played a key role in collecting data on its spread.
‘The committee’s Chair Tom Tugendhat told the Telegraph: “The Government has modelled their response to the coronavirus based on information from across the world. That is impossible to do if a country is misleading you.
“China’s lies are costing British lives. Now, more than ever, Britain needs to think about resetting its relationship with China.”
‘The committee’s Viral Immunity report also singled out Iran and Russia as being responsible for disseminating false information about the pandemic.
‘The committee called on the UK Government to work alongside its international allies, to actively “confront and rebut” disinformation being pumped out by foreign powers…‘ continue reading here (emphases mine).
On this theme of lying world leaders, I note China claims Trump caused the outbreak!
I trust inclusion of news on a Parliamentary committee’s action will enable this to pass scrutiny by the Government’s Covid-19 fake news unit!
‘…Criticism of the WHO has particularly targeted its Director, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who is said to owe his appointment to China, for following Chinese preferences over internationally agreed guidelines – such as the International Health Regulations (IHR) – even going so far as to delay announcing it as a pandemic to avoid hurting China’s international standing. As Beijing’s was detaining its own doctors – early heroes against the disease – and suppressing geonomic research on the disease, Tedros was praising China for its “transparency” and “leadership”.
‘Perhaps more damningly, Taiwanese diplomats have claimed the WHO ignored early warnings in December about Covid-19 transmission from its own experts – in order to please Beijing – indicating that we might have been saved this pandemic if the WHO had merely listened.
‘This corruption of the WHO’s function is symptomatic of a wider trend, which has seen Beijing take over one-third of the UN’s 15 specialized agencies, appointing its officials to important posts where they immediately beginning implementing “Sino-centric” policies, using a combination of arm-twisting and lobbying…’
NB: This post was drafted in July 2018 and remained unfinished but now serves as an introduction to a post on the effects upon the EU of the coronavirus pandemic:
Background
Those who’ve read what David Noakes brought in November 2015 as being of the Lord may recall His urging the UK to leave the unrighteous nature of the EU; a part of which reads: “Rather than rely on Me and my faithfulness to you, you chose, for worldly purposes, to join yourself to an institution which has denied my Name and refused to acknowledge Me in its councils. My fierce anger is upon that institution on account of its rebellion, its defiant rejection of me and its hardness of heart towards my ancient people Israel.
In looking two months ago at Iran’s dual strategy against President Trump’s halting the internationally agreed nuclear accord created by his predecessor, we read about the EU’s deep opposition in the person of Federica Mogherini, its High Representative for Foreign Affairs & Security Policy. A few days earlier we’d learned about an American’s dream of the EU as a monstrous spider’s web covering the whole continent and then considered God’s sign language, all of which led a post before that on Iran in which I draw attention to the High Representative’s office having been created by the EU’s 10-nation Western European Union’s Recommendation 666, together with a video that opened with her.
Ten years ago today I ventured into the public realm of blogging by launching Richard’s Watch as a way of informing people about how current events are foretold in Bible prophecy. Soon it would also cover contemporary prophetic words and visions
My decision to start writing was confirmed by a visiting prophet. However, around the time of dreaming about the Kingdom being set up and learning it relates to a prophetic word Bill Johnson brought on a change in the Church in the UK, as recounted
