This blog’s prime focus is upon not only signs and events indicative of Jesus Christ’s promised return, but also progress of prophecies. Postings herein are forwarded to my Facebook timeline and to this blog’s channel on Telegram, wherein extra prophecy-related news can be quickly linked. Thus, Telegram acts as a noticeboard.
In this prophetic word it’s ‘God-incidental’ that Veronika too noticed the numerals, like with my noting ’20, 21, 22, 23 and 24′ in Prophecy Progress Update 136.

Bizarre theory London’s blood-covered horses and Big Ben clock stopping are ‘omen’ of ‘end times’ Two horses bolted from a training exercise in central London earlier today, with four people injured in the chaos, while Big Ben was seen to have stopped just before 9am. A bizarre superstitious theory has spread on social media as people wildly claim the blood-soaked horses that ran wild in London yesterday and Big Ben’s clock stopping are ‘dark omens”.
Yesterday, the UK’s capital witnessed blood-soaked horses and the iconic Big Ben’s clock coming to a standstill, consequently leading some barmy folks to predict doom. © Mirror.co.uk
I quote :
“BIG BEN; The hourly strikes of the bells were also paused and will resume at midday (12) ….They too reportedly malfunctioned by ‘performing 11 chimes’ at 10am.
The quirk has occurred despite the fact that the clock, tower and bells were refurbished in 2022…. [11+11=22] !
The timepiece in the structure was frozen at ‘9am until gone 10am then Chimes 11 times’ — and at the same time it’s Reported that…
— Five Household Cavalry horses have run loose in Central London, prompted social media users to say that it is the ‘end of days’.”
BIG BEN Freezes at 9 a.m. — It strikes Chimes 11 Times … at 10 a.m.!

“I hear The Spirit say, “This Nation has been out of time, out of tune and out of step with My Spirit.
[…….]
Listen! For the silence and the stillness in The Realm of The Spirit that has been over this land shall suddenly be broken.
I say, look to Big Ben! Yes! For the chiming of Big Ben will be heard and will herald a Changing of The Guard, and this shall be a sign that the Nation is now entered into the 11th hour.”

“I hear The Spirit say, “This Nation has been out of time, out of tune and out of step with My Spirit.
Watch, as a supernatural resetting of the times and seasons begins to take place over the four Nations of this land.
Yes! For Satan has sought to alter the times and seasons, but Watch and Pray, for My Desire is to bring the four back into the sheep fold.
Watch, as My Hand of Justice and Judgement will begin to move strategically and with surgical precision in the days ahead, to bring an unblocking to the four chambers of the sick and diseased heart of this Nation, for surely I tell you, My Spirit is moving to bring a Divine Reconstruction and a Reconfiguration within the heart of the four Nations that has beat out of time and out of rhythm with My Heart for this land.
Watch, as I bring to birth a new Kingdom Movement in this Nation!
Listen! For I say to you, it’s time! It’s time! It’s time for a time of Silence, Separation and even a time of Isolation has not been in vain — but has been for the purpose of Purification unto Transformation.
Listen! For the silence and the stillness in The Realm of The Spirit that has been over this land shall suddenly be broken.
I say, look to Big Ben! Yes! For the chiming of Big Ben will be heard and will herald a Changing of The Guard, and this shall be a sign that the Nation is now entered into the 11th hour.
For a Nation that has moved out of My Divine Time is now being Re-aligned, Re-ordered and Re-mantled — for a great Awakening and Re-formation Movement is now beginning!” “
Blessings to you all.

After our brief morning devotional I got nudged to change my blogging day’s intentions to focus on what Jesus and Apostle Peter said about weather and signs – BUT then I found Fareham’s prophetic pastor has beaten me to the draw and brought a very direct and stern word confirming well my misgivings about churches following the world!!
So, after a long break for ministry and church teams’ safeguarding training, please take especial note of this exceptionally poignantly rebuke to most churches in Britain:

Note the closing paragraphs of the above-cited prophetic word received by Julie Green 21 months ago and how they connect internationally renowned landmarks in the UK and USA!! [NB. thus, numerical sequence in date of 20, 21, 22, 23 – now 24 this year!]
ONE GOVERNMENT WILL FALL AND ANOTHER REPLACE THEM
“Ezekiel: this name will be in your news.
The clock known as Big Ben will be in the headlines. I told you this will be a sign that what the Royals have hidden can’t stay that way.
I will say this again, the Statue of Liberty will be in your news and not in a good way. Their monuments and their symbolism are about to fall all over the place, saith the Lord.
Something significant is about to take place in New York.
Get ready, My children, for change is coming like you wouldn’t expect it to change in these ways. Watch more leaders resign. Watch; some of them will die. This is the time for change in nations around the world.
Start to celebrate, My children. You are about to see Me do things for you I have never done before like this in this world.
You have all been handpicked for this Great Exodus, so receive what the Lord has already done. My Glory shall fill your homes like never before. Yes, changes are coming, ones you didn’t expect because I am the God of surprises, and I am about to surprise the world, saith the Lord your Redeemer. “

The next post also refers to this historic and prophetic sign.
Not many months after hearing the Lord say “This is ALL about to be fulfilled” upon my opening a Bible to check the wheat and tares parable, I emailed friends about it. Thus, began my emailing on current events in the Middle-East. As matters escalated the Lord strongly poked me to go public, which I did on 21.11.11 with this blog.
Scrolling through that month’s 11 postings you’ll note it covers the possibility of Israel making a pre-emptive strike against Iran and then TV debates on the Palestine issue.
NOW, courtesy of a friend and fellow writer gently taking me to task over including on-the-ground reports on Richard’s Watch Telegram from Behold Israel’s Amir Tsarfati in Eilat, Israel, we go ‘retro’ with a recent controversial interview by independent journalist Tucker Carlson.
In Episode 91, Revd Dr Munther Isaac leader of a Palestinian church in Bethlehem conveys his perspective of the dreadful situation in that region. He makes interesting and valid points about the need for churches to know what’s happening in the land and which may be valid; BUT then exposes his extremely one-sided stance at 14.40 mins
“..Christians should be for peace. I wish you were investing all your energy and money to bring peace, NOT continuing to support Israel unconditionally without holding them to account – which, in my opinion, is what drove us to this mess right now with the catastrophe of thousands of Palestinians killed on October 7th and all that…”
I stopped listening to any more because he failed to mention and show any compassion for the innocent victims of the utterly demonic barbarity of terrorists and many so-called citizens massacring and taking hostages of well over a thousand non-combatant Israelis – including babies and little children – and other nationalities.
It’s appalling that any Christian would fail to condemn that truly horrendous massacre – hence my blogging on it as humanity’s second tipping point.
It supports my contention that all the videos of the dead, mutilated, chopped and burned corpses should be mandatory viewing across all tv networks in an attempt to educate the deliberately brainwashed folk.

PS (17:30) Amir writes (emphases RB):
These are FACTS:
Tucker Carlson’s Misleading Narrative: Unraveling Bethlehem’s Christian Demographic Shift
The recent interview on Tucker Carlson’s show has sparked controversy, particularly in its portrayal of Israel and the population dynamics of Bethlehem. The narrative presented in the interview, suggesting that Israel is driving out Christians from Bethlehem, is not only irresponsible but also misrepresents historical facts.
It’s crucial to understand the historical context of Bethlehem’s demographics to grasp the reality accurately. Before Jordan took control of Bethlehem, the population was overwhelmingly Christian, with estimates indicating around 85% being Christian. However, during Jordanian rule, this percentage significantly declined to around 40%. This decline occurred due to various factors, including economic challenges, persecution and restrictions on religious freedom.
Contrary to the narrative presented, the years under Israeli control before the Oslo Accords saw a growth in Bethlehem’s Christian population. Estimates show that during this period, the Christian population increased to around 65%. This growth can be attributed to the freedom of religion and improved economic opportunities provided during Israeli administration.
However, in recent years, Bethlehem’s Christian population has faced challenges, and the percentage has decreased to a mere 12%. This decline is not due to Israeli actions but is a result of discrimination and persecution from the Palestinian Authority and the Muslim population in the region.
It’s essential to separate fact from fiction and not vilify Israel based on misleading narratives. The reality is that the Christian population in Israel has grown over the years, and Bethlehem saw growth during the time it was under Israeli control due to the freedom of religion and opportunities provided to all communities.
Tucker interview was not just irresponsible, fueling more hate during this times of heightened antisemitism but also manipulative towards the Christian communities to give them a false narrative against the Jewish State.
Israel is one of the safest places in the Middle East for Christians.
While Palestinian Christians left Gaza and the West Bank due to horrific persecution, and Christian communities in many places around us completely vanish, the Christian community in Israel prospers. Yes, there are here and there Jewish ultra-orthodox acts of hatred towards them but it’s unlike anything close to the atrocities Muslims do to them around us. Jews don’t kill Christians in Israel. Period.
Tucker Carlson, in his new path to completely remove American support in Israel, carefully chose to interview a traditional priest teaching replacement theology so only complaints would be heard.
No doubt – the American conservative narrative is being changed and Israel is now their new villain. The most antisemitic people on X these days are people who claim to be right-wing conservatives and even proud Christ followers.
THESE ARE THE LAST DAYS. BE CAREFUL OF THESE DECEIVERS.
SEEING THINGS AS THEY REALLY ARE
Introduction
As main-stream media sticks to the pro-Palestinian narrative, and ignores any evidence to the contrary, it is deeply depressing to see that America and Great(?) Britain have totally failed to understand the true intent of Iran and its proxies (see recent article on the significance of Gaza, and why Israel has no alternative but to ensure the destruction of Hamas). Betraying our allies was once considered indefensible; now it is seen as a political expedient. I examine our moral decline and how our once reliable and authoritative main-stream media bears considerable blame for misleading the Nation. I also look at whether these things have End-Times significance. Continue reading

International Christian Embassy In Jerusalem’s President Dr. Jürgen Bühler delivered the keynote address at the annual Israel Breakfast during the National Religious Broadcasters convention held in February in Nashville, Tennessee.
The ICEJ-USA branch co-sponsored the traditional breakfast, which is the foremost pro-Israel event at the yearly gathering of Christian media and publishers from around the globe.
Dr. Bühler described how much Israel has changed since the shocking Hamas invasion of October 7, adding it also needs to be a “game changer” for Christians to stand with Israel as never before. Many Israelis have lost trust in the government and IDF, he explained, and instead are turning towards God in prayer.
He added the nation also is more united to confront Palestinian terrorism, including those who once hoped in and ardently promoted the peace process. Realising they’ve been duped and betrayed, no longer can any Palestinians be trusted!
Dr. Bühler also expressed hope that Gaza could be transformed and steered away from hating Jews by allowing Evangelical Christians to be more involved in its rebuilding, and thus realising there’s a far better way of reconciliation and living through Jesus Christ.
Checking this morning’s verse from Micah 6 leads into ‘The Lord’s Case Against Israel’ – which also applies to all nations today, especially to the once united States of America, that’s become no better than a banana-state.

After 44 postings (click tag to scroll them) on the BBC during which I gave it a more suitable title ‘Brainwashing Britons Cult’ when watching exposures of political rot in UK and USA, at long last there’s now a press focus upon the corporation’s blatant anti-Semitism. (It’s anti-Christian too!)
My monitoring this and its consequential inaccurate, biased reporting began two months less than thirteen years ago in my email Rapid rollover on today’s news, with a follow-up in August 2012 The biased BBC doesn’t know about Jerusalem.
Later I discovered helpful, informative websites Honest Reporting (see The picture that began it all in Sept 2000) and BBC Watch, which issued frequent in-depth scrutiny of its abysmal, journalism – as in this from exactly 11 years ago on 29th November 2012:
BBC Watch has since merged with Committee for Accuracy in Middle-East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), founded in 1982. Another valuable analytical site located in Israel is the Middle-East Research Institute (MEMRI) with its trove of translations from all publications in that region. Particularly noteworthy is CAMERA’s monitoring of not only media inaccuracies but also UK branch’s statistics of Palestinian casualties this year.
In those years I regularly read ‘ne plus ultra’ Caroline Glick who served ‘1994-96, as an IDF captain in the Defense Ministry as a core member of Israel’s negotiating team with the Palestinians’and ‘1997-98 as Assistant Foreign Policy Advisor to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’.

OCT-NOV 2023
Here’s screenshots of very recent items in The Telegraph online – and don’t miss the last item about Westminster’s ‘anti-Israel blob’ that’s a likely major contributing influence upon BBC’s anti-Semitism:
First, the blocking of a highly qualified, invited consultant from giving a valuable contribution to a BBC presenter:
“I had been watching the coverage that evening already in disbelief. I explained that now, more than ever, the channel needed me on to provide balance. There was a desperate need to keep to the BBC’s commitments of due accuracy and impartiality. I had already seen many online reports that the incident had occurred in the context of a barrage of rockets from Gaza towards Israeli civilian communities. The BBC’s line simply didn’t add up. ”
Now, a tranche of reports in chronological sequence, and which can be read by searching at > https://www.telegraph.co.uk/search/?q=BBC&p=0&sortby=date

[Extract, emphases mine]
‘All of that is now over: Foreign Office orthodoxy is back with a vengeance. Lord Cameron’s first interview – with the BBC, appropriately – was hugely disappointing. He claimed the number of casualties in Gaza was “too high”, implicitly blaming Israel rather than Hamas, and accepting the terrorists’ propaganda at face value, by failing to realise that many fatalities are Hamas fighters and somehow forgetting that they use civilians as human shields.
The war would end were Hamas to unconditionally surrender and release all the hostages – why didn’t Cameron ask for that, rather than stating, insultingly, that he “stressed over and over again that [Israel] must abide by international humanitarian law”? Can’t he see that Israel is doing more than any other country to follow the rules of war, and that it is succeeding to an almost superhuman degree? Is the FCDO trying to harmonise British policy with that of Emmanuel Macron and other anti-Israel European powers?’
Foreign Office culpability is enormous and Allister Heath’s article ties in well with this by America’s Barbara Boyd in Some Real Facts About The Current Mideast War.

In case you missed previous post’s PS – a ‘coincidence’???:
As a reminder, here’s my account of hearing from the Lord on this vital matter 44 months ago, as told in this blog’s Covid-19 Bio-weapon sub-hub:
‘So I mulled all those matters over in my mind prior to falling asleep Monday 23 March [2020]. (This included various scriptures, prophetic ‘opinions’ as well as rumours on the issue, especially that, as El Shaddai, the Lord is ‘The God of utter ruin and devastation’ according to rabbinic doctrine. I laid out all I’d heard, those particular scriptures – see next post Is the global pandemic from God’s hand? for details – plus the whole canon and my own thoughts, just like imaginary piles of papers spread out on a desk before the Lord for His direct advice!)
Upon waking Tuesday morning, 24th March, I recalled having done that and, therefore, asked the Lord, “Is the pandemic from You?” ~ and got an immediate answer: “No, it is man-made!!” (Thus, the possibility of Covid-19 being deliberately engineered by China as a weapon of biological warfare!)’
I’ve tried to keep track of subsequent international news on this issue and validations began to tumble forth after a while. The first dozens are listed in the above-linked page but eventually I had to simply tag them under Bio-weapon tag.
COVID INQUIRY
Click here for link to the Telegraph’s coverage of The Covid Inquiry. Today’s session began at 10am with Michael Gove being sworn in and pertinent posts read as follows:
1:22PM
‘No 10: WHO needs to examine all possible origins of Covid. Downing Street has said the World Health Organisation needs to continue investigating all possible origins of Covid.
Michael Gove used his appearance at the Covid-19 Inquiry to claim there was a “significant body of judgment that believes that the virus itself was man-made”.
The Prime Minister’s official spokesman later said: “The Government’s view is that the WHO needs to continue to examine all possibilities.
“We think there is still work to be done. But it is for the WHO to investigate.”
He added that it was the “long-standing position of the Government” that it was for the WHO to “consider all possible avenues and to come to a conclusion”.
“I don’t think it is quiet that people have differing views about the origins of Covid-19.”
3:39PM
Recap
Michael Gove told the Covid Inquiry that the Cabinet Office was stuffed with extra responsibilities like a “Mary Poppins bag” by successive prime ministers, and not effective at dealing with crises.
Mr Gove said that the country was unprepared to deal with Covid and suggested part of the problem could be because the virus may have been “man-made”.

It’s fascinating to learn through Derek’s military insights how top-level activities in the USA are not as they appear (ie. optics). Specific things give the ‘game away’ to those who are trained – as though it’s all being staged like a show!
Visit his Official Telegram and 1776 Nation on Facebook for entries of November 21 for explanations of photos of past Thanksgivings, pResident Biden’s incorrectly staged inauguration (also as a militarily funeral) and regulations on how US soldiers, especially the Marine guard, are to dress and salute correctly.
As another example go to postings of November 17-18 for Derek’s revelation of actors posing in public as US Airforce Honor Guard upon China’s presidential visit. The fact that mainstream media broadcast the ‘stand-down’ activities also gives the game away:

Hot on the heels of Part 2 my retired soldier friend and author of Signs: The Significance of Bible Prophecy submitted this afternoon (images added):
THE EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO ISRAEL PART 3 – A WAR OF SURVIVAL
Introduction
This is a very critical time in the history of modern Israel. I believe that decisions
made in the next few days will determine whether the Gog and Magog war (Ezekiel
38) is precipitated or if, alternatively, there will be a victory of sorts in Gaza followed
by a period of peace. The latter may seem the more attractive outcome; however,
there is no doubt that the Gog and Magog war is coming.
As I said at the end of Part 2, the situation is changing as I write. What is more, it is
difficult to get accurate real-time information. I am deeply distressed by the
polarisation that is developing; and by the BBC reporting, which seems intent on
encouraging that polarisation. [RB. It’s exceptionally badly biased pro-hamas support was noted 9 years ago in my Call for Clarity on Israel and Gaza!)
The media must bear some responsibility for the imbalance in reporting that, I believe, is encouraging mass intolerance and demonstrations, in support of a movement many of the partakers know very little about. Watching recent news reports, I am reminded of scenes from “Kristallnacht” in Germany in 1938, when marauding mobs roamed the streets attacking Jewish homes, businesses and synagogues.
RB: In his frequent on-the-ground updates Amir Tsarfati gives this informative link to a virtual Mapping the October 7th Massacres
The Dilemma Facing Israel
In any military appreciation of a situation, it is always wise to seek to assess, and try
to better understand, the situation from the enemy’s point of view. That requires a
working knowledge of their motives, intentions, strengths and weaknesses, and
tactics; and, in particular, what they must be stopped from doing, whatever the cost.
The leaders of Israel face an almost impossible dilemma.
Summary
For Israel, “victory” in Gaza (and only Gaza) could lead to a false peace and, as a
consequence, to the demobilisation of reservists. The battle fatigued reservists would return home (and back to work) and start to relax. If Hezbollah were then to launch a full-scale attack, i.e., shortly after IDF demobilisation, the challenges for Israel would be immense.
God is revealing the true nature of the society in which we live, and it is alarmingly bad. The liberals, who took control of the madhouse decades ago, do not understand what they have unleashed. Their view that most, if not all, people are motivated by logic, reason and self-interest is flawed: there are some who will never enter negotiations with honest intent.
Iran and its proxies are driven by a deep pathological hatred of Israel and are committed to a radical Muslim theology that demands the annihilation of all Jews.
Similarly, the “Palestinian Cause” has always been a cover for the expulsion of Jews
from Israel, and has never been about sharing the land.
Why are the blood-chilling genocidal statements made by anti-Israel leaders and clerics, that show their true motives, never broadcast by the mainstream media?
Conclusion
Israel is fighting a war for its existence against a genocidal enemy. Whichever way things go, it seems inevitable that Israel will be vilified and, by association, all Jews world-wide will suffer.
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!

Cont’d: ‘…to the international media – this is how the terrorist organization Hamas takes fuel from the hospitals in the Gaza Strip, at the expense of the humanitarian needs of the residents of Gaza.
The exposed conversation between the commander of the West Jabaliya battalion of Hamas and Gazati, with the participation of the director of the Indonesian hospital, is further proof of Hamas’ cynical use of humanitarian resources in the Gaza Strip. In addition, the conversation confirms that the terrorist organization Hamas controls the existing energy resources in the Gaza Strip and chooses to channel them for its operational needs at the expense of the needs of the civilian population.’
Continuing from Part 1 and, in view of its direct relevance, again I head up my friend’s exposition with this from Behold Israel channel:
THE EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO ISRAEL – Part 2
Gaza
I was surprised to discover that Gaza is mentioned at least 20 times in the Bible. The
only positive reference I could find was the story, in Acts 8, where Phillip evangelises
and baptises a man who is on his way to Gaza.
For the most part, Gaza is referred to as a place where the leaders and people (e.g.,
the Canaanites and the Philistines) hated God and the Israelites. The Israelites, in
Judges 1, were ordered by God to conquer Gaza, which they did.
The prophets Amos (1:6-7), Zephania (2:4) and Zechariah (9:5) wrote about the
wickedness of Gaza and the judgement that God would bring upon its inhabitants.
I will return shortly to the question of whether the current calamity in Gaza has end-
times significance.
The Palestinian Cause
The Palestinians have shaped a widely accepted narrative, about their history and
situation, which is based on lies. They have been so successful in convincing the
media to promulgate their version of history, that any attempt to challenge the
accuracy of their fabricated story is now seen as race hatred and/or Islamophobia.
Comments that the region has been “Palestine” for 2000 years, and that Gaza has
been confined and its people oppressed by colonialist Israel, are simply not true.
These entrenched views are well-nigh impossible to correct.
Rather than reiterate what others have said, I recommend the comprehensive and
well-researched articles posted on “Richard’s Watch”: Conversations and corrections
over history of Palestine and Israel – 1 of 2 and 2 of 2
Also, a “Prophecy Today” article, which lays bare some very uncomfortable facts about the true intentions of Radical and Apocalyptic Islam: Cutting Through the Fog of War
In a nutshell, the land (about 10 times the size of current Israel) was given by God to
the Israelites over 4000 years ago. Roman Emperor Hadrian crushed an Israeli
revolt in 135 AD and renamed Israel (Judea) Syria Palistina, in his attempts to
subdue Jewish nationalism.
The truth is that, after they began returning to Israel and the state consequently being established in 1948, it was to a very small area of their homeland.
In researching these topics: I have noted that many sources of information, including
the UN, have sanitised (adjusted or omitted) parts of the History of the region.
The tragedy of the false “Palestinian” narrative is that many compassionate people,
with a heart for the disadvantaged and social justice, do not understand the full
history of the movements they support: the people of Gaza need to be freed from
Hamas (see Part 1). Hamas have no interest or concern for the well-being of the
people they use as their human shields in Gaza, and who they exploit for propaganda
purposes.
Prophetic Significance
Returning to the question of Gaza’s prophetic significance. There are a number of
biblical prophecies that need to be borne in mind, by anyone who is intentional about
marrying past prophecies with contemporary events. Time will tell whether we are
witnessing Matthew 24 “birth pains”, or further along the End-Times time-line. Some
relevant prophecies:
Where Are We?
I am not sure, but what I can say is that we are not yet in the Ezekiel 38
Gog and Magog war. Some reasons: Russia (Magog)and Iran (Persia) are
not directly involved; Israel is not alone (weapons, equipment and
diplomatic support coming from other nations); Christians have not been
raptured (?)(!). However, the situation could alter very rapidly.
I had thought I would be able to “conclude” at this point. Not so, even as
I write I begin to hear and to realise that things are far more fragile than
I had originally believed. Israel is fighting for its very existence, and I will
explain why in Part 3.
