Trustworthy and True: Making Sense of the Book of Revelation – Alan Shemwell

A riveting scripture-charged exploration and interpretation of the Book of Revelation and study into the fast-approaching End-times – showing how the US, Russia, China and Europe fit into those events to lead into that prophesied global climax.

DESCRIPTION

Acknowledge it or not, we are hurtling towards the End-times. The pre-conditions have never been more complete than today. More so in the past 80 years than in the previous 19 centuries.

Cautious scepticism is healthy but we have a duty to understand the warnings about what’s happening around us and what’s coming, so we can prepare and warn others.

Many prefer to shy away from any attempt to interpret the Book of Revelation, viewing it as unfathomable and bizarre, full of symbolism, metaphors, repetition of earthquakes, fire and hail from the skies, plagues and battles.

Some interpret it is relevant to the first Century only (A.D. 70), when the Jewish revolt against Roman occupation was cruelly crushed. However, given it was written around the same time it would not have been much of a ‘revelation’. It would not have been read by Jewish people, who perceived Christianity as blasphemous. It would also not have been helpful to the early Christian church and the ‘book’ is clearly written to both the Christian church and to the Jewish people.

End-time scripture isn’t so unfathomable when viewed through the lens of the people of Biblical times – their beliefs, practices, experiences and stories; then superimposing understanding of things that are very familiar to us now but were alien to them.

Some important insights also help interpretation – such as the fact that during Old Testament times a year was perceived as 360 days (and this was also adopted as the default for ‘prophetic’ years in the New Testament). Also, Jewish people often referred to themselves as people of the land and the gentiles as people of the sea.

Many expect evil influences to present themselves in obvious ways no one can deny – but the best strategy of these is to convince us all that they do not exist! So, we should not expect to see them for who or what they are until very late on, when it might be too late for the uninformed.

The USA, China, Russia and Europe are all referenced, if you interpret properly, through ‘markers’ that include: global trading status, economic size relative to military might, historical basis of their trading and legal systems, population size, direction of their homeland relative to Israel, the nature of their current leaders, initiatives in international expansion, colour of their battle flags, symbols and statues that they are renowned for, geological characteristics, and, historical names of tribes from which these nations originated. The combination of many markers helps to make the interpretation less tenuous and more convincing.

There will be hard times ahead, even for Christians, but the Book of Revelation is fundamentally a message of HOPE – how to survive without compromising our eternal future, that evil will be dealt with once and for all, and that the world will be reshaped into the perfect paradise it was meant to be.

I invite you on an amazing exploration into the wealth of information that has been freely given to us on what is to come. I can boldly promise you a journey that will have huge consequences for you and your loved ones.

I have spent many years researching, grappling with and meditating on the scriptures – asking for divine inspiration to help interpret these prophecies. I hope and pray that this book is as accurate an interpretation as possible, and that it will spark the reader’s interest in interpreting what’s happening around them in the context of biblical revelation, so that they are forewarned of the dangers, can warn others, and can gain hope about the final outcome.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Louise Petrossian Mokhof who leads and supports many Christian charities including KORPU BUILDING BRIDGES WITH THE WORD, and speaks at Christian conferences around the globe. Louise acted as a key proof-reader:

“This book is a must read and thought provoking for those readers who are keen to know and have a deeper understanding about the End times, divine judgment, the Antichrist, Christ’s second coming and so on. The author’s narrative is direct and focused on global affairs in connection with Biblical facts from the past, present, and future. It is condensed with so much information to wet the reader’s appetite and keep them at the edge.”

Rebecca (Becky) Coulter, (avid ‘bookworm’ and daughter of a renowned newspaper journalist), and her husband Andrew Coulter, who acted as proof-readers, hungry to understand more about what the Bible tells us of the End-times:

“This book is a thorough and comprehensive guide to understanding The Book of Revelation. It is easy to understand – woven together in a way that helps the reader to follow with clarity and understanding. Foundational reading for anyone looking for sound biblical insight and understanding about this crucial book of the Bible.”

The real battle for the Strait of Hormuz – Tania Koenig

Further to the prophetic word received by Veronika West and posted Monday to watch signs relating to the Strait of Hormuz, Tania Koenig’s insightful article is a MUST READ for she draws an immensely important conclusion

Hebrews 12 Great Shaking – Islam’s schism widens

Returning to WordPress desktop yesterday, I noticed that Tuesday’s post was 5,500th published on this blog, and quite appropriately covered a real ‘NOW’ prophecy – in a ‘sandwich’ !!

Furthermore, not only did its fulfilment happen within a few hours of posting but also my unwitting, introductory content in its preceding post on Hebrews 12 relating to Islam had not only been delayed a week, but also I’d meant to refer to specific news pointing to an rapidly increasing Shiite-Sunni split. However, instead I wrote about the assassinated regime’s top leader Ali Larijani’s own boastful threat against President Trump’s life!

So, back to the question posed in the first part of this Bible Update:

Could this month’s missile attacks upon surrounding Sunni states, in reprisal to Israel and America’s pre-emptive strikes, mark a highly significant schismatic shaking in Islam? That is, a SHIITE regime versus SUNNI nations!

These are the several surrounding Sunni states that have been targeted and struck by Iranian missiles and drones:

  1. United Arab Emirates – Dubai and airport, Abu Dhabi, Fujairah port & US base
  2. Qatar – Hamad Airport, Ras Laffan industrial area, Al Udeid US Air Base
  3. Bahrain – Manama
  4. Kuwait – international airport, Ali Al Salem US Air Base
  5. Saudi Arabia – Riyadh region and Eastern areas hosting U.S. or allied forces
  6. Iraq – Erbil Internat-Airport / US Consulate, Baghdad Diplomatic Support Center
  7. Jordan – Eastern Jordan (Bundeswehr field camp), various interceptions zone
  8. Turkey
  9. Cyprus.

REACTIONS

On Saturday 14th March, I noted Amir Tsarfati in Israel posted this ‘heads-up’ about one of the regime’s proxy terrorist groups followed by its official confirmation:

Courtesy Koenig’s World Watch Daily, here’s Jerusalem Post report Hamas sends secret letter to Mojtaba Khamenei, mocks Gulf states, refuses disarmament

‘Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, KAN News reported on Sunday. The secret letter followed a more public statement made by Hamas on Saturday, in which the terrorist group urged Iran not to target neighboring Gulf countries. 

“While the group affirms Iran’s right to respond to this aggression by all available means in accordance with international norms and laws, it calls upon our brothers in Iran not to target neighboring countries,” Hamas stated in its more measured public response.’

Monday, Daily Telegraph contributor Colonel Richard Kemp’s comments on Facebook:

Yesterday (emphases mine):

And with copy of document in Arabic, at 19:12 https://t.me/beholdisraelchannel/73126 (emphases mine):

‘If that’s no enough – now Qatar is against Iran. What can I say – it can’t get any better..

Qatar’s MFA:

‘The State of Qatar expresses its strong condemnation and denunciation of the blatant Iranian attack targeting Ras Laffan Industrial City, which caused fires resulting in significant damage to the facility.

Qatar considers this attack a dangerous escalation, a flagrant violation of its sovereignty, and a direct threat to its national security and regional stability.

The Ministry reiterates that the State of Qatar reserves its right to respond.’

This morning (emphases mine):

‘…In this statement, these actions are called “deliberate aggression” and Tehran is requested to immediately cease the attacks.

In the final statement of the Riyadh meeting, it was said that the “aggression” of the Islamic Republic cannot be justified in any way. The Arab and Islamic countries also announced that the attacks of the Islamic Republic were directed at residential areas and civilian infrastructure.

The signatories of this statement demanded an immediate cessation of the attacks and adherence to the principles of international law.

During the meeting of the foreign ministers of the Islamic and Arab countries in Riyadh, the Saudi foreign minister criticized the behavior of the Islamic Republic, accused it of harming civilians and the economic infrastructure of the countries in the region, and warned that these measures would be “costly.”

Referring to the continuation of the attacks, Faisal bin Farhan declared that Saudi Arabia has various options – including non-political options – and does not rule out military action if necessary.

ITS WILDLY THRASHING RESPONSE TO THE DESTRUCTION OF ITS WEAPONS, VESSELS AND ARMAMENTS, THE APOCALYPTICAL THEOCRACY ATTACKING THE SURROUNDING SUNNI MUSLIM STATES AND SPLITTING ISLAM ASUNDER.

It looks like we’re moving towards the fulfilment of my stunning heavenly vision of 34 years ago wherein I heard the Lord announce the coming fall of Islam, as told herein:

Ask for the Nations – Psalm 2 v 8

Prophetic signs in the Strait of Hormuz -Veronika West

Posted Monday 16 March on Veronika’s Ignite Ireland Ministry at 18:55 and I shared at 22:22 on my Facebook, this is as published the next day by His Kingdom Prophecy:

PROPHETIC  SIGNS  IN THE  STRAIT  OF  HORMUZ:

The Watchmen must keep Watching and Praying!

I hear The Spirit say, ”Watch, for The Birthing of a Nation(s) in a Day is at hand!

Watch and Pray — for I AM speaking through Signs, to the Times and to the Season ahead, the Season of the Birthing of a New Golden Era —

  • to a Great Wealth Transfer,
  • to the War for Oil and to the Ancient Wells where Divine Revival and provision flows,
  • to a demonic choke-hold that seeks to destroy the Destiny of Nations (the spirit of Haman / hangman’s noose),
  • to The Spirit of The LORD now moving Nations through The Narrow Places — through the Eye of a Needle,
  • to The Nations of the Earth now Entering into a Divine Window of Time,
  • to Nations in a Time and Season of Constriction and Birthing Contractions in the realm of The Spirit,
  • to Economic and Financial systems and,
  • to Emerging Political Alliances and,
  • to Global trade routes that are now moving into tighter spaces, where decisions and a Divine Distinction of Goat and Sheep Nations will no longer be postponed!

I say watch! Just as Birth comes through a narrow canal, so the pressures now seen among The Nations are part of a great Shaking, Divine Awakening and the Separation of Nations.

Yes! For Pressure precedes Transition!

Listen! Pay Attention! For My Remnant must not only watch the movements of Armies, Ships and Markets — but they must go up higher to discern the deeper Prophetic Patterns and Mysteries that are now emerging.

See! For I AM revealing the Gates of the Earth — those strategic places where Power, Resources and Influence are now beginning to converge and align with Heaven’s Time.

Watch! As the Gates expose the true dependencies of Nations and the fragility of Systems and Structures built without Justice and Righteousness.

I say — look! Watch, for The Strait of Hormuz surely is a Birthing Canal — a narrow place where War — Travail, great Pressure, and passage that signals what is taking place in the Heavenlies, and to what is now being uprooted, torn down, built and established.

And to that which is about to be Birthed and brought forth into the Earth Realm, Watch!

Again I say — for there are Signs that speak to the Times!

Just as the Strait of Hormuz is a Narrow Gate and a Divine Connection point (VAV) through which the Economic lifeblood of Nations must pass.

So, The Nations are now being driven into a Spiritual Choke-hold where the powers of the prince of Persia and the Ancient Empire Spirits War in the Heavens over the Great Wealth Transfer Coming to the Nations!”

See the Prophetic Parallels and Patterns

  • Genesis 26 (2026) — the conflict over Isaac’s Wells….
  • Joel 3 — Nations gathering in the Valley of Decision….
  • Prophetic Pattern — Strategic locations will become Prophetic pressure points where global tensions will converge….
  • Marine Spirits: Daniel 7 — Empires rise out of the great sea….
  • Revelation 13 — the Beast rises out of the sea….
  • Prophetic Pattern; The Waters — Great turbulence among Nations — The Seas… where chaotic powers emerge and War!
  • Daniel 9 — Stitch in Time/ Window of Time… (21 Days… Prince of Persia)
  • Esther — Purim; Spirit of Haman/ Haman’s Gallows!

Blessings to you all.

The Rowboat Prophecy – Michael M Bennett

As featured in his Tinderbox Prophecy Update, Michael’s email of 10th February now continues as below. My month’s delay in not being able to publish may well be for the Lord to show the relevance of current events to what Michael received last year

NB. He wrote me a fortnight before fourth round of negotiations with Iran reached an impasse, as in my footnote to Neil Mackereth’s Current Middle-East Geo-political  Key Points on breaking news: ‘Senior Iranian official to Al Jazeera: “We categorically reject the dismantling of the nuclear facilities, zero enrichment, the transfer of uranium, or any discussion of the ballistic missiles.”  Therefore, Israel and US had no option  but to launch pre-emptive military operations against Iran on 28th February.

Michael continues,

‘…Another prophecy I received, the Row Boat prophecy, matters because it places a limit on Ezekiel 38 [RB: The Lord’s great victory over the nations] – because it indicates that Putin’s Russia will not attack Israel.

This prophecy is holding because, far from advancing into the Middle East, Russia has withdrawn. Indeed, over the weekend, Russian personnel were flowing out of the Bushier Nuclear Plant – back to Russia.

What follows is from June 2025, but I feel that now is the time for it to be published.
Yours sincerely,
Michael Miles Bennett
 
 
THE ROW BOAT PROPHECY – Part 1

23rd June 2025, plus the follow-up on 10/8/25

A vision in the night: copied directly from my journal.

I was awakened while it was still dark in the early hours this morning. I asked the Lord why I had been woken up. I asked why my dreams and visions were so infrequent and obscure. I began to see.

I saw a rowing boat, brown with no oars. It was wooden. As time has passed (now, for example) I can see it quite clearly. It is the wooden shiplap type. It began to be taken ‘downstream’; it had no control of its own direction or fate.

The next vision (following immediately) was of it falling off a cliff: there was no water.

The Father spoke one sentence, 

“The boat is Islam”.

THE ROW BOAT – Part  2

Same day. In the shower an angel said to me:

“The water is the nations

The flow (of water) is time

The cliff edge is ‘time is up’

When the Killing is done the killing will begin

When the murder is done the murder will begin

When the genocide is done the genocide will begin

Time is nearly up.”

11.35 a.m. 23/6/25

THE ROW BOAT  – Part 3

10th August 2025

This vision has been persisting for over a week. I am finally persuaded to record it.

I saw the wooden row boat again – actually for over a week – only this time it’s out of the water. This is so I can see underneath it. There is a great big hole in the bottom of it.

Yet, it hasn’t fallen off the cliff yet. Hands (just hands) are reaching up to hold onto it – & holding it up. Some are even holding onto the hole’s edge (so they know the row boat is sinking… oh and wrecked).

Now, finally as I write, I see the last hands let go.

The Father says.

“Islam is to change. It ceases to be Islam. The culture changes – ready for my arrival. There is no chance of it surviving in its present form. It is being readied to accept the anti-Christ, the false one, the hypocrite and liar.

It will then slot into place like a piece in a jigsaw puzzle.

 MMB

 Commentary

The above is a precise transcription from the pages of my journal.

I must inform you that I have known for over a decade that Islam would change to ready it for the arrival of the anti-Christ. So, some aspects of these visions are not surprising to me.

The hole in the boat clearly represents the failure of Islam.

Rather than abandoning something that is recognised as being a failure, its supporters do just that – they hold on to and hold in place a belief system they recognise is simply not living up to its claims.

Notice, supporters are actually holding onto the edges of the hole.

The absence of water at the cliff edge indicates that support for it has failed. Its fall off the cliff is absolute.

I believe it is time for this vision to be published.

Clarification on Bible prophecy and US military

It is important to understand that The Shaking prophecies, either in Hebrews 12 or the prophecies brought by Kim Clement recently posted herein, should NOT be taken as being about End-times and the battle of Armageddon.

In America’s Military Religious Freedom Foundation it’s reported that some US military commanders have been briefing troops that events in the Middle-East indicate we are entering End-times battles – and many servicemen have logged complaints about such zealotry.

However, this may well reflect individuals’ personal preferences and reminds me how our British Commonwealth troops may have been encouraged to face going into combat 112 years ago into what became the massive First World War; eg. “Onward Christian Soldiers” being sung in churches.

This news from America’s military came to my attention in Mark Davidson’s monitoring of events tying in with his ‘The Four Signposts’ thesis, which came to my attention 11 years ago upon reading his very thought-provoking Daniel Revisited, as told in:

Four ‘Signposts’ of the Books of Daniel and The Apocalypse

So, for your information here’s Mark’s take on those complaints published by the MRFF:

The Signpost Perspective: Christians with Wrong View of Prophecy Will Ironically Get What They Wish For

Obama admits ‘mistake’ of supporting despot Khamenei

Such a ‘God-incidental’ surprise during my lunch after drafting my post on Kim Clement prophecies and my early postings to catch up with this breaking news over the pond – thus confirming they are bang on-target; :

Obama Admits He “Made a Mistake” by Not Supporting Iranian People’s Green Movement Against Evil Islamic Regime in 2009 When They Were Calling Out His Name!… Instead He actively assisted the Khamenei Regime

Click here for advert-free full version (extracts follow)

Jim Hoft writes, ‘As previously reported (in 2016 & 2018):

The Obama administration actively assisted the evil Khamenei Regime to crush the 2009 Green Rebellion.

Obama ordered the CIA to sever contacts it had with the green movement’s supporters. He abandoned the protesters who were slaughtered in the streets by their own government. He was afraid his support would ruin the nuclear talks he was holding with the mullahs.

In 2009, tens of thousands of brave Iranian democracy protesters rose up against the brutal Khamenei regime after President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was announced the winner in a disputed national election.

The protests quickly turned bloody when Iranian hardliners started firing on the protesters. One beautiful young protester…was Neda Soltani or Neda Agha Soltan — she was shot in the neck during a protest in Tehran on June 20, 2009. (AFP)

‘..This week, Barack Obama admitted he should have supported the Iranian protesters in Iran during the Green Revolution in 2009, over a decade ago.

‘Not everyone is buying Obama’s much-delayed epiphany.’

Former Director of National Intelligence Rick Grenell was not buying it.

‘And one other thing, he’s lying that we ever knew there was a debate “inside the White House”.  The White House publicly ignored the calls from activists to stop negotiating with a brutal Regime. — Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) October 16, 2022

2014 & 2015 prophecies of The Shaking to come upon Iran – Kim Clement

Little did I realise that the month before blogging on Iran and the Nuclear ‘Fix’ (the Nuclear Agreement or ‘pact’ between President Obama and Ayatollah Khamenei), that intercessory psalmist prophet Kim Clement delivered this word for Bibi Netanyahu after the previous year’s stunning prophetic declarations:

23 June 2015 > “BIBI NETANYAHU, THE LORD IS WITH ISRAEL – GO AHEAD AND DO WHAT YOU PLAN TO DO, BUT DON’T HOLD BACK DO IT QUICKLY”, SAYS THE LORD.  – excerpt from PM’s 2026 speech –

8 Feb 2014 > “YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT ALL YOU ARE DOING…ALL YOU ARE SEEING IS THE IMAGE OF A BEAST WHO HAS BEEN DESTROYED. THE IMAGE EXISTS – THE HEAD OF THE SNAKE CAN BE SEEN BUT IT IS DEAD” – news images of 2026 celebrations upon post-Khamenei’s death – “THIS IS SOMETHING GOD HAS ORDAINED, (this is NOT something Obama ordained, not what America ordained) A MASSIVE SHAKING IN IRAN WHICH WILL REVEAL GOD’S ABSOLUTE DISPLEASURE WITH IRAN AND THE PACT THAT IS PRESENTLY TAKING PLACE AND THE RESULT WILL BE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF CHRISTIANS WILL BE FREED IN IRAN!”

Telegram’s Kim Clement – House of Destiny covers this as follows:

‘The shaking in Iran may have begun.

After major strikes on Iran and reports of Ayatollah Khamenei’s death, the Middle East is entering a historic moment. Missile attacks on Israel, global leaders watching, and tensions rising.

But more than a decade ago, Kim Clement prophesied a “massive shaking” in Iran — one that would ultimately lead to freedom for Christians in that nation.

Are we witnessing the beginning?’

Bible replay and Netanyahu cont’d: 2021, The Roaring Lion – Veronika West

After the prophecies of 1980s, 2008 and 2020, we note the fulfilment of a POWERFUL word Veronika West updated last year and its descriptive words are personally used by PM Netanyahu –  AGAIN ’22’ turns up in a screenshot, and playing with top digits displayed we get: 22 / 2 = 7+0+4 (and time I published at 15:41 = 11):

Although posted on her Facebook, here’s His Kingdom Prophecy publications of 1st March followed by the original on 15th June 2021:

PROPHECY COMING TO PASS IN REAL TIME

Prophecy Coming to Pass in Real Time, Netanyahu: “A Voice That Will Carry the Roar of the Lion of Judah!”

And Quote: “The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office announced that the operation targeting Iran has been named “Roaring Lion.”

This follows the June operation last year, which struck Iran’s key nuclear facilities and eliminated its military leadership, dubbed “Rising Lion!”

The use of “lion” in the operation names continues a symbolic tradition.

At the time, Israel cited the Old Testament verse from Numbers 23:24:

“A people rises up like a lioness, and like a lion — who dares to rouse him?”

The lion symbolizes the valor of the tribe of Judah, one of the twelve tribes that formed ancient Israel and the ancestral lineage of today’s Jewish population.

The connection between the lion and the tribe of Judah originates from Genesis 49:9, where Jacob blesses his fourth son, Judah, saying, “Judah is a lion’s cub.”

PROPHECY 15 JUNE 2021

A WORD CONCERNING BENJAMIN NETANYAHU – WITH UPDATE

“A Double Portion Anointing of Ezekiel and Jeremiah — a voice that shall carry the sound of The Roar of The Lion of Judah!” [RB emphasis]

During my time of prayer for the Nation of Israel today, The LORD brought Benjamin Netanyahu before me, and suddenly I heard The Spirit say these Words to me,

”For many will say concerning Benjamin Netanyahu, surely God has given, but now God has taken away.

But I say to you, “Watch and Listen!” For just as I said to My Prophet Ezekiel, so now I say to My Prophet Benjamin Netanyahu — son of man, go now to The House of Israel and speak My Words to them.

For you are not being sent to a people of obscure speech and difficult language, but to The House of Israel.

Not to many peoples of obscure speech and difficult language, whose words you cannot understand!

Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you. But The House of Israel is not willing to listen to you, because they are not willing to listen to Me, for the whole House of Israel is hardened and obstinate.

But I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are. I will make your forehead like the hardest stone, harder than flint.

Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious house!”

As I heard those Words, [RB emphasis] The Spirit of The LORD then showed me a Mantle that came to rest upon Benjamin Netanyahu — an Ezekiel Mantle — as one that is called and anointed to speak to The House of Israel, and even to the Global and Economic Organisations of the World, in the coming days.

Then I saw that The Hand of God has made his face (Benjamin Netanyahu) hard against their faces, and his forehead hard against their foreheads — like the hardest stone — harder than flint, he has made his forehead.

Then I heard The Spirit say, ”Watch — as I cause My Prophet Benjamin Netanyahu to become as a thorn in their sides, as a scorpion in their shoes, even as a watch dog that will bark aloud, relentlessly, giving them no peace.

Yes! He shall be known as A Great Trouble Maker — A Constant Irritation — and a Stumbling Block to their destructive plans.

A voice that cannot and will not be silenced. A voice that will carry the sound of The Roar of The Lion of Judah.

A voice that will speak of My coming Justice and Judgment in the Nations, and a voice that will only get louder and louder in the days ahead.”

As I heard those Words, The LORD then brought The Prophet Jeremiah before me, and I saw a second Mantle fall upon the shoulders of Benjamin Netanyahu, and I heard these Words, ”A Double-Portion Anointing, for a time of Great Awakening is now here!”

And then I heard The Spirit say, ”For My Prophet Benjamin Netanyahu shall carry a Double Portion Anointing — the Anointing of Ezekiel and Jeremiah shall rest upon him.

My Word will be as a sharp two-edged sword in his mouth, for I have Anointed and Appointed him over Nations and Kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant!”

Postscript

Please see this FoxNews article 29 December 2022 regarding the return of Benjamin Netanyahu as Israel’s Prime Minister:

Benjamin Netanyahu returns to power in Israel as new government is sworn in
Netanyahu is Israel’s longest-serving prime minister

“Benjamin Netanyahu has returned to the position of Israel’s prime minister Thursday as a new governing coalition was sworn in.
Netanyahu is Israel’s longest-serving prime minister, having held office from 2009 until 2021 and a stint in the 1990s.
He was ousted from office last year after four deadlocked elections by a coalition of eight parties united in their opposition to his rule while on trial for corruption.
That coalition broke apart in June, and Netanyahu and his Likud party won the most seats in November’s election. His new right-wing coalition includes both nationalist and ultra-Orthodox parties.
Netanyahu continued by saying the new government “will work to significantly deepen the cooperation with the countries of the ‘Abraham Accords,’” which were brokered by the Trump administration and saw Israel sign peace deals with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan.
Netanyahu also vowed to “protect the quality of the environment in Israel, to improve the quality of life of the country’s residents and for Israel to participate in contributing to the global effort on climate and environmental issues,” as well as “strengthen the security forces, and provide support to the fighters and the police to fight terrorism and defeat it.” Extract © Fox News.

UPDATE 22 NOV 2024

God Stands Over His Word to Perform It!

God Prophesied powerfully on the 15th June 2021 that Benjamin Netanyahu would be His Double Trouble Maker and His Come Back Leader in the Days ahead.

Bible replay and Netanyahu prophecies being fulfilled

https://t.me/beholdisraelchannel

Thinking of the few prophecies I’m aware of about Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu – and in this blog’s first month I posted about him starting a Bible home study group, and declaring 2011 Christmas greetings – I was pleased to hear Jonathan Cahn on The Secret Behind the Ayatollah’s Fall describe Bibi’s PIVOTAL ROLE in this year’s Feast of Purim (where the Jewish people were saved from genocide about 2,500 yeas ago; the feast is not merely a celebration of survival but a profound expression of joy, gratitude and divine providence).

In fact, last weekend’s pre-emptive attack against their satanically-inspired foe makes a Biblical replay of Purim. Here’s Jonathan (from 21:46 timestamp):

“Now listen to the news report here of what happened to the modern Haman. Satellite images showed heavy damage to Ayatollah Ali Kamenei’s fortified compound, including buildings believed to house his home and the so-called house of leadership. On the weekend commemorating the execution of the evil Persian leader [Haman – see Esther 7] in his own home, the evil Persian [ie Iranian – RB] leader is executed in his own home. Now, the word, now listen to this, the word that was appointed to be read around the world on that day tells of King Saul’s failure to execute King Agag.

Centuries later, the descendant of King Agag, according to the Hebrew [word], Haman will be executed because of Mordecai and Esther. They stop him. King Saul failed to execute Agag. Mordecai and Esther succeeded in executing his apparent descendant Haman… Now listen, King Saul was of the tribe of Benjamin, but he failed. So Mordecai is raised up centuries later to succeed and guess what? Mordecai is of the tribe of
Benjamin and Esther may be as well. So one person of Benjamin fails, the other
person of Benjamin, man of Benjamin succeeds to execute the son of of the one who Saul, or the descendant, failed to.

So the the secret here ,mystery, the one who executes the evil Persian leader will be linked to the name Benjamin, of Benjamin. On February 28th, the one who executed the evil Persian leader was linked to the name of Benjamin. Namely, his name was Benjamin Netanyahu. Benjamin. He must be linked to the name Benjamin. And now, because Haman was such an evil man, when he died, there was celebration throughout Persia.

The death of Iran’s supreme leader, the Ayatollah, brought celebration throughout Persia, throughout Iran, but it wasn’t focused on the Jewish people. It was the Iranian people themselves. You had an Islamic nation celebrating and they were celebrating America and Israel. There were videos on YouTube showing Iranians with signs saying, “Thank you, America.” And then, “Thank you, Bibi.” That’s the nickname of Benjamin Netanyahu. One of these Persian Iranian people had a red cap on that said, “Make
Iran great again.” There were even videos of Iranians waving Israeli flags.
The blue and white of the Israeli flag of their blue and white. Actually, blue and white had a role. You know, the planes that came in and struck down Khamenei, they had on them on them. They had a they had blue and white on them… a blue, a white circle there. Well, interesting. They’re marked by blue and white. Interesting. Listen to this. Esther 8, I’m sorry. It says,
“Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king wearing royal robes of blue and
white.” Amazing thing. Purim is a festival of joy for the Jewish people.

They sing and they dance and they celebrate about being saved by God because of the ending of an evil leader plan and rule in Persia, Iran.

Well, now all of the world and Iran, the people of Persia, are celebrating the ending of the rule of an evil leader of Persia. And they’re celebrating it…at the time of Purim. I don’t know if they realize it, but they were saved through an ancient Jewish holiday that brought them so much joy.

Let’s bring it home now. What does all this reveal?
Number one is that what happened on that Saturday with America, Trump, Israel, Netanyahu, Iran, the supreme leader was part of an ancient war of Amalek and God that begins with Moses when they come out from the Pharaoh. And when God says, “I will war against Amalek.” In every generation, he will war.

What happened? What happened to the quote supreme leader? He was struck down by the hand of God. That’s what it reveals behind it all. The hand of the holy one. Because the supreme leader of Iran is not THE supreme leader. The Supreme Leader is the holy one of Israel. He’s the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!!

What happened? What does it tell us? It tells us that God is real. This is real. It’s all real. What the Bible says is real. The God of the Bible is alive and well. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is still on the throne of all. The God of Esther, and Mordecai is still moving through the world in history as much as he moved back then in Bible times. Bible times. We’re in Bible times because God is real. It’s amazing – it’s amazing. You see, we’ve got a faith that can that actually we can talk about this actually coming true in the news. There’s no other faith like this.”

NEXT, we consider some contemporary prophecies about Israel’s Prime Minister…

Biblical ‘God-incidence’ at Purim shows the LORD IS in charge!

Further to our brief considering the claims of the Iranian regime’s deceased Supreme Leader about his false religion’s messiah, here are details of the Biblical reality of the Book of Esther being re-played in our day, and the modern Haman being executed by the means he planned for the Jewish nation of Israel.

Comparison of true and false messiahs (Blog’s full circle back to beginning: 30)

LOL, on this ‘re-cycling’ of wheels turning, we’re taken full circle back to not only what the Lord showed me 40 years ago, but also to the early days post-launch!

JESUS PROPHESIES ABOUT FALSE PROPHETS

In His Olivet discourse predicting the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem and Signs of the Times and End of the Age, as recorded in Matthew 24 (NKJV), Jesus says this about imminent destruction and subsequent events, and He implies momentous times in far distant future:
“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
15 “Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), 16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. 18 And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. 19 But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20 And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the [c]elect’s sake those days will be shortened.
23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.”

Last May we briefly examined the subsequent historical reference to the arrival of The Abomination in the person of Caliph Umar in 637AD, AND Jesus’ warning about FALSE prophets may well be regarded as prophesying about the birth of Islam 600 years later!

NEWS OF ATTACK ON IRANIAN REGIME

Doubtless the weekend news of Israel and US actions against the Iranian regime may have assuaged Neil Mackereth’s concerns expressed in the previous post, as well as answered prayers for Western leaders to be aware of the Shiite leaders’ extremely dangerous ideology.

I was reminded of how the Lord showed me – a ‘not-yet’ believer – about the accuracy of Bible prophecy, as recounted in Bio Info – Grabbed by an ‘Invisible Hand’ (rehearsal of ‘liberation’ of Jerusalem!) and 20 years later my emailing and subsequent blogging on the Middle East.

Also, within months of launching this blog I’d posted a couple of pointed revelations on Jewish and Shiite Muslim ‘End-time’ expectations, viz:

JEWISH RABBI MEETS HA’MASHIACH

Who are the Jewish People Expecting? (31.7.12) refers to one of Israel’s largest websites, Ynet, displaying a banner proclaiming the coming of the Messiah! The report quoting this news states the source of this proclamation is not known:

“The Messiah is in Israel. This will be the last government of Israel.”

‘I have since discussed with a friend based at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and he is of the opinion that this announcement probably came from the American Sid Roth, Christian host of a TV series upon the supernatural and scriptural events. But, he advises, Sid’s method is not the best way of getting the attention of Israelis.

My friend reminded me that one of Israel’s most prominent rabbis, Yitzak Kaduri, is reputed to have met the famous Messiah whom Jews have been expecting for millenia. Shortly before he died in January 2006 aged 108, Kaduri wrote the name of the Messiah by means of a simple acrostic code using the Hebrew alphabet, as do the first letter of each line of Psalm 119. This code was written in a small note, which he requested should stay sealed for a specific period.

This link to Yeshua Ha’Meshiach Ministries provides details of what happened. Also, you may learn about it on this video from evangelistic YouTube PPN News & Ministry (PP Simmons), which is famous for having gone viral upon its launch..”

DECEASED SUPREME LEADER CLAIMS HE MET THE ‘MAHDI’

In Iranian Leader’s End-Times Declaration (20.7.12) as follow-up to previous day’s Iranian Leader: We must Prepare for the ‘End Times’ I cite Joel Rosenberg:

“In July 2010 Ayatollah Al Khamenei, according to one senior cleric, was “telling his inner circle that he was visited by the Hidden Iman and that he promised to appear during his tenure as Supreme Leader”. In supposing that Jesus was merely a prophet, ‘Twelvers’ claim Jesus will return with and be subordinate to this Mahdi! …”

(See my email of 19 Aug 2010 now published herein together with its rapid update.)

According to Joel’s source, a couple of months ago a newspaper which Al-Khamenei controls boasted that the many changes in US policy towards Israel under the Obama administration are tantamount to rejection of its M-East ally, thus bringing an end to the US-Israel alliance. According to this report, the Saudi Royal family is the only ‘obstacle’ and, once it falls, then Israel can be ‘destroyed’.

Also, about the same time as publication of that report, billboards were set up in Iranian cities announcing that “Jesus and the Mahdi will come soon” (see here) – but as we know, it is mistaken.’

AND that ‘Mahdi’ didn’t prevent his assassination! – Also, if he really has post-mortem consciousness this regime’s ‘Supreme Leader’ must realise he’d been duped by satan and is now confined to non-stop torment!! OR more likely > he was demon-possessed.

Current Middle-East geopolitical key points – Neil Mackereth

My dear friend, fellow author and contributor to this blog offers his thoughts on the situation with the Iranian regime and I emphasis Neil’s first point on the importance of understanding the doctrine of the Hidden 12th Imam, or Mahdi as the ‘messiah’ of Shiite theology, as in postings over the past 16 years.

CURRENT MIDDLE-EAST GEOPOLITICAL POINTS –  23rd February 2026

1. Fundamentalist/apocalyptic Shi’a Muslim Ideology appears not to be understood by US negotiators (and others – see brief comment on Shi’a ideology below).

2.  Trump’s red lines have been crossed, without consequence: e.g., Iranian security forces killing Iranian protestors; Hamas retaining weapons and control in Gaza.

3. Trump’s new focus appears to be to achieve a deal to remove Iran’s Uranium enrichment capability. If successful, a deal would probably (?) leave the Ayatollah’s evil regime in place.

4. Point 3 begs what I call the Ezekiel question. God makes it clear, in chapter 38, that in the last days a very large army, led by Magog (Russia) and supported by Persia (Iran), Cush (Sudan), Put (Libya), and Gomer (Turkey) will come against Israel for the final Battle, at Armageddon. If that is on the near horizon, it seems likely that the Ayatollah will not be overthrown. In other words, praying for regime change could be praying against the fulfilment of God’s prophetic plan!

5. Netanyahu needs US weapons, ammunition and support. He cannot afford to jeopardise his relationship with President Trump, even though the President’s policies may be undermining Israel’s ability to enforce its own “red lines”, which include those above, plus: neutralising Hezbollah, demolition of a further 350 miles of tunnels in Gaza; removal of Iran’s ability to control and fund terrorist groups, removal of Iran’s existing long and mid-range missile capability, and their ability to manufacture more missiles.

6. The Board of Peace – 35 nations signed up so far – some are sworn enemies of Israel, e.g., Turkey, Qatar – some of the nation’s dislike each other intensely – agreement seems unlikely! As an aside, rumour has it that President Trump sees the “Board of Peace” as a possible replacement for the UN. It does seem to me that the UN is possessed by the spirit of antichrist and obsessed with hatred of Israel. However, I doubt that the Board of Peace will replace it!

ON APOCALYPTIC SHIA IDEOLOGY (Know Your Enemy!)

The Shias believed that the supreme leaders of their people, Imams, (no separation between head of state and religion) should be selected from direct descendants of Muhammad (no longer feasible). It is said that the 12th Imam, also known as the Mahdi, was hidden in a cave to save him from capture. Shias believe there will be a final battle and the Mahdi will return to rescue them from defeat, hence they have no concern about precipitating such a battle, against vastly superior military forces: some see it as a requirement.

Dealing with radical clerics who make political policy decisions based on Shia ideology, is not something the west understands. It’s ultimately about the Shia and Iranian worldview: misleading an enemy, fostering complacency, using delaying tactics, appearing to want to negotiate (to allow time to recover strength), are all considered legitimate ploys.

The negotiations are unlikely to yield substantive results. The central goals of the Islamic Republic – the destruction of Israel and of the U.S. – are not going to be discarded by negotiation: they are based on Islamic principles of jihad and the idea that any land once ruled under Islamic law, belongs to Muslims forever. It’s doctrinal, an ideological obligation.

The Iran leadership will never agree to anything that looks like defeat. Iranian negotiators understand the Greek logic western mindset. They appeared to find it easy to hoodwink the Obama and Biden administration representatives: they were predictable.

President Donald Trump, on the other hand, is unpredictable and that has confused the Iranians and proved to be an unexpected negotiating benefit.

Negotiating with a regime driven by ideological conviction and a completely different worldview, one that believes in, “Death to America”, does not make a deal impossible, but it does make it very unlikely. How does anyone negotiate effectively with a regime fervently committed to one’s destruction?

PRAYER POINTS

1. Thank God for the incredible (supernatural) survival of the Jewish identity over many centuries of dispersion and persecution. Thank God for the miraculous reestablishment of the Nation of Israel. Thank God for the blessing of a green and fertile land, a booming economy, an amazing military capability and a technical skills and innovation base that is at the forefront of world IT development.

2. Pray that those who negotiate with the Iranian regime will have wisdom and insight. Pray negotiators will take seriously the Ayatollah’s oft and clearly expressed intention to destroy Israel (and the USA). Pray that the well documented history of continual deceit, broken promises and deception is not naïvely ignored, in the pursuit of a peaceful resolution.

3. Pray that, if an agreement is reached, it includes a very robust, transparent and enforceable verification process.

4. Pray for Holy Spirit guidance on how to pray correctly into the fulfilment of prophecy, particularly in respect of the Ezekiel 38, 39 prophecies.

5. Pray for Netanyahu’s wisdom, patience, perseverance, opportunity and ability to achieve Israel’s military and political objectives.

6. Pray for a workable, effective and constructive peace plan for Gaza, which provides confidence and security for Israel and an encouraging future for the people of Gaza. (Golda Mier once said: peace will only be achieved when the Arabs love their children more than they hate the Jews). Pray for the teaching of Jew hatred to Palestinian children to stop.

Protests in Iran and regime’s reaction are another full circle! (28)

The wheels-within-wheels keep on turning at high speed…..and here we are at 28th posting on this blog’s and my previous significant items and personal events

Yesterday morning’s Bible breakfast WApp discussion happened to be opened with this contribution: “One I believe, lives a day at a time. Words of an old hymn come to mind:-

” Walking with Jesus day by day,
Taking Him for our Guide;
Holding His hand we can never stray
Far from His wounded side”.

After chats about news of America snatching the Venezuelan ex-president and my relating it to Hebrews 12’s verses on shaking, as in recent posts, I thought his timing so apposite in view of other news and thus respond as follows:

“Not heard of that one Ian, but the Lord’s definitely in the timing. He must have done that about 40 years ago with me, as clearly hinted when I was given this book on history and geopolitics of the Middle-East as a trustee of a New Age lodge.

I flicked through it whilst a documentary on Iran-Iraq war was on TV but I noticed chapters on OT prophecies and Jesus and glanced at photos of the mosque in Jerusalem and timelines of Jewish and Muslim history with reference to Daniel’s prophecies.

Suddenly TV showed Iranian elite units rehearsing an attack upon Jerusalem. [As told in Bio Info, the commentator claimed a temporary truce was called and Iraqi elite units joined the rehearsal.] Sheer coincidence?? That double-strike of book and tv can only have been God’s doing and got my attention!

After moving from Sutton to Pangbourne I saw Billy Graham in ’89 and the next year attended church, where I got another ‘double-strike’ with bulls-eye Bible answers upon asking God about New Age and church leaders.

The hymn implies we can be chatting with him too by means of Holy Spirit, and I’ve had ‘drops’ on Heb 12:27 and Matt 13 wheat & tares parable and learned of the importance of Deut 19:15 on two/three witness testimonies establishing a matter.”

In Bio Info, I continue
‘Definitely a book to be taken seriously; it grabbed and got my full attention! Also, it introduced me to Jewish and Muslim history as a background to Church history, and devoid of any of their theology and jargon.

Consequently, I became more alert to Middle-Eastern and globally related events, which suggest things may not be as they seem at first glance – or as reported in the media, and definitely not the BBC! I was amazed to learn that many modern events are of Biblical significance. Bemused, therefore, I began to watch as events unfolded – occasionally and slowly at first, but rapidly and accelerating after we entered the new Millennium, or ‘3rd Day’ since Christ.

Dunstan estimated all the prophecies would come to a climax in 1992 with Russia being the lead villain against Israel. However, he didn’t foresee the collapse of communism in 1989! Yet that year proved pertinent because the ‘Middle East Peace Process’ had just got under way in October 1991 and led to the Oslo Accords of 1993. Furthermore, Victor accurately foresaw the resurgence of Islam as a militant force:

‘We are about to witness a mighty and almost unbelievable upsurge in Islam. Though we see the first signs of an Islamic-revival (it) has a long way to to go but it’s going to go that ‘long way’ very quickly.’ [‘The Invisible Hand’, page 198.]

Consequently, his seminal book has received a number of mentions during the course of my blogging and which may be found under the Invisbl_Hand tag.’

After two post-Millennium decades of ongoing missile and interim terrorist attacks and then the barbaric massacre on October 7th 2023, Israel went on the defensive against Hamas and surrounding Iranian proxies in Lebanon and Yemen. Then in June 2025 Israel launched Operation Rising Lion as a direct airborne attack upon Iran

Thus 40 years after my seeing the Iranian rehearsal of their ‘liberation’ of Jerusalem and subsequent repetitions, the tables have turned under the Almighty’s hand of Covenantal protection.

NOW – THIS WEEK’s NEWS

Joe Hoft shows a selection of screenshots of videos of protests within Iran in Tuesday’s HUGE: The Iranian people are getting stronger and pushing back against the Iranian regime

Memorial in Egypt uncannily resembles alarming prophetic banner

Before attending church yesterday I re-read the closing paragraph of Revelation 12: 1Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus – and continued reading right through chapter 13 for the full background to the Mark of the Beast (Rev 13:16-18).

Therein, Apostle John continues to recount the awesome visions he was beholding and experiencing, viz:  ‘The dragon stood on the shore of the sea….’ and then describes in detail two beast that arise, one out of the sea and one from the earth. SO later I was most intrigued to read Veronika West’s Facebook account of a vision of a banner featuring a dragon.  Here’s the version in His Kingdom Prophecy:

I heard, ”Watch! For a strange Peace rises — then the Sword of War shall Fall!”

I will share soon of a powerful dream I had last night, a Dream that has left me in travail of what shall yet come to pass…

Watchmen Stay Alert! Swords Drawn! Shields Raised!

Our Battle Cry: “The Victory belongs to The LORD — the Conquering Remnant is Rising to Occupy!”

With the help of my son Caleb this morning, he has generated for me a picture as per my explanation of what I saw rising over The Nations in my dream.

Prophetic Eagles — tell me what you see in this Banner?

The Dream is multi-layered. but this Banner speaks to many things!

  • The Black Doves: speak to a Counterfeit Peace Rising. A Peace shall come for a Season — but it will not hold — and then the Sword shall Fall.
  • The Head of the Dragon: I believe speaks to Revelation 12 but also to Nation of China. The Banner itself gave me the Prophetic sense of the Nation of Russia and the Arab Nations coming together — a Convergence of Nations Rising.
  • The Swords: Speak of War— but the Clashing of Nations and Kingdoms.
  • The Red: Speaks of Bloodshed — but….
  • The Banner: Speaks to a veil coming upon the eyes of many who will be deceived by the Counterfeit that shall arise.

So much more on this Banner….

Let’s see what/where the Prophetic Seers see GO……

Note : All the comments on here [Facebook] are Amazing and Speak powerfully to this dream.

It was incredibly profound and a deep travail came upon me in the Dream.

A deep travail against the Assignment of Satan that comes to Accelerate and Alter the Season and Times of God in the Earth.

A Travail where I was Interceding for the Remnant that it would begin to Rise and Come up higher, above the fog of War.

The Black Eagle in the dream also spoke powerfully to the Counterfeit Eagle the Counterfeit Prophetic that would seek to Lead many astray.

It was very strange but in the Dream but the legs and talons of the Eagle would suddenly change and the muscular hind legs of a lion would appear with its claws open as if like the Eagle it was coming down upon its prey.

The LORD spoke about a Counterfeit Apostolic and Prophetic movement that would seek to Rise. This Dream is speaking to The Nations — and to The Church.

Furthermore it speaks to a call to be as wise as the serpent and as gentle as the dove.

A Clarion Call to Walk Circumspect and with great Discernment — to Wear the Mantle of Wisdom and Truth.

The Swords Speak to the Sword of the Peacemaker vs the Sword of the Peacekeepers. The Truth vs the Counterfeit

Interesting to Note: The Face of the Eagle is the Face of the Dragon — the Serpent Spirit of Leviathan is rising up against the True Prophetic Eagles. There is an Assignment of Leviathan against the True Apostolic and Prophetic Rising.

More Prophetic Interpretations

I submit, the Dragon-Faced Eagle : speaks to Empire, Dominion, and the Rising Beast System.

At the center of the “Blood-soaked Banner” is the Eagle with the face of a Dragon/ Leviathan.

Again, I submit, the Black Eagle speaks of Empire, Global influence, and Counterfeit Authority. A Global Superpower or Coalition rising to dominate the World stage in the coming days.

I submit prophetically, the dragon’s face in the Dream unmasks its true source. Its power is not merely political, but its powerfully spiritual, as it speaks to the “Rise of Ancient Entities” and the serpentine spirit of the Dragon rising, as Nations are in Divine Transition.

We know It is the spirit of the dragon from Revelation 12 that circles at a time of Birthing.

Satan’s “Governmental Agenda” rising, as the True Ecclesia is Birthed, and when Goat and Sheep Nations are being separated.

This Dragon Spirit circling seeking to devour, to control, and to rule the Nations through fear, deception and bloodshed.

This entity will disguise itself as strength, order, and Global leadership, but I believe its talons are meant to enslave The Nations.

Its policies and actions will promise stability, but strip of freedom and bring powerful bondage. Its Vision (Eyes of the Dragon/ Eagle) will appear progressive but is deeply oppressive and enslaving of the undiscerning.

It seeks to devour Nations, and subdue the Saints of God.

I hear these Words, ”Watch and Pray remnant, for what looks like the Eagle of Truth and the Dove of Peace, is the Dragon of Deception and the Spirit of Leviathan in disguise, seeking to devour the undiscerning.

Listen! For what The Nations will hail as “Saviour,” will be a system that enslaves and leads to eternal death!

Watch! Be Discerning of the faces behind the wings!”

The Crossed Swords : The Clash of Kingdoms and Nations on the Threshing Floor — the Battle of two Altars rising.

The Two Crossed Swords are multidimensional in Revelation. Ultimately it’s a powerful prophetic sign that War — and increasing conflict — is inevitable and is on the horizon!

These Swords are not just weapons of Earthly War — but they symbolize prophetically the collision and clash of Kingdoms and the Colliding of the ‘Kairos and the Chronos’.

There is a battle raging over of Times and Seasons of God, over The Nations! The clash between the kingdom of darkness rising and the Kingdom of God advancing!

Also, it speaks to End-time Ideologies that will collide. The Spirit of Truth will confront the spirit of deception.

The Remnant Church will stand against the Global order of the Beast System!

The Blood-stained Flag, speaks of the cost of War.

Blood will be shed in the natural — but the counter is The Blood of Jesus and the Power of our Testimony that will overcome in the Time of War, and upheavals that will come — both in the natural and the spiritual.

Yet, The LORD would have His People know…

“Fear not! The Sword of The LORD is in the hand of a mighty Peace-making Remnant.

For though The Nations will rise against Nations, and kingdoms against kingdoms, My Kingdom will not be moved or shaken, for I will raise My Banner of Truth and Righteousness over The Nations in the Valley of Decision — and even in the bloodshed, My Kingdom Purposes will prevail and overcome!”

A Powerful Prophetic Call to The Church

This Dream is not meant to invoke fear — but I believe its timing is strategic and is meant to awaken The Remnant to be Watching.

As a time of false peace draws near, be Alert and Vigilant!

Do not be deceived by calmness or political promises of the hour!

  • To be Praying without ceasing. The Spirit of Intercession must Arise, to bring razor-sharp discernment and strength to Stand and Prevail…
  • To Pray fervently for Global Leaders, that they will not bow to the Dragon’s System….
  • To Prepare — to Anchor our Faith deeply in Christ — to strengthen and fortify the foundations…
  • To begin to Prophesy — Decree a thing and it shall be Established!
  • Declare Truth even when it’s unpopular, and even though hatred and violence rises against the Truth Tellers, our Declarations will expose the spirit of deception — even when it’s costly!

I hear The Spirit Say

“The counterfeit will always seek to rise before the True and Authentic is revealed!

But know this — I AM Truth!

My Banner of Righteousness will Raise a Standard over The Nations — a blood-stained Banner not of War — but of Salvation, Redemption and Kingdom Reformation!

And when the Dragon opens its mouth with fire and smoke, the Roar of the Loin of Judah will be released, and at the Sound of the Roar, the Eagles will Soar — and from Zion, My Voice will thunder and every high-place and demonic Altar of Baal and Jezebelic Throne, shall be dismantled and destroyed and every empire spirit shall be silenced and defeated!

Yes! The black doves of false peace will rise, the dragon spirit of Leviathan will roar, and the Swords of War will clash and fall — but the True Lion of Judah will Roar and the Power of The Blood of the Lamb will prevail!

For what shall surely come is not the end of Hope — but the Beginning of even greater shakings that precedes the Birthing of a New Glory Movement and the Dawning of a New Golden Era in The Nations.

Watch — for a great Awakening of a Radical Remnant is happening! A Remnant who will Discern, Endure, Rule and Reign with Him as King of kings!”

Blessings to you all.

I comment upon the Facebook original: “(Earlier) I was prompted to reread Rev 13 re digital ID, the two beasts and mark of the beast. And (as I’ve said previously) we have ‘pigs may fly’ as I call it, Peace in Gaza, a splendid plan arranged by Pres Trump and Arab nations.
But imho this banner may indicate how the hater of humanity sees it and intends disturbing the signed peace deal.
Rev13 dragon’s false prophet may well be the founder of 15lam and the 4 birds geographically represent Turkey, Qatar, Iran, Egypt.
Crossed swords definitely a regular Islamic symbol. When flying into Heathrow before 2005 terror attacks Chuck Pierce saw a huge sword in the sky over London!”

The Guardian has reported Turkey’s president as refusing to attend the extensive Peace Conference in Egypt if PM Netanyahu were to attend, as at President Trump’s invitation.

Now, an hour ago Veronika writes at Ignite Ireland Ministry:

PM Netanyahu’s Knesset speech to President Trump closes on Israel and America’s covenant, echoing 2020 prophetic vision

Around 5.10:22 of video broadcast by The Telegraph, Benjamin Netanyahu draws his speech addressing Donald Trump in the Knesset to a close by thanking him, then waits several seconds during translation his short comment in Hebrew, and declares,

“May God bless America, may God bless Israel and may God bless the Covenant between our two promised lands!”

PROPHECY

In this connection I notice Veronika West has refers to a relevant prophetic vision of 26 September 2020 just over five years ago (screenshot at 11:45, with ‘Q’ comments!):

“…POWERFUL PROPHETIC SIGNS COMING TO PASS….; The Dove With a Great Shifting in Its Wings!…PLEASE SHARE…For the Purpose of Prayer…!!! …,America: A Great Shaking, Separation and Shifting!“; https://www.hiskingdomprophecy.com/america-a-great…/

I strongly encourage your reading Veronika’s prophetic vision in its entirety (also linked below) in view of its following sub-heads and closing section copied below (emphasis in red is mine):

  • HARVEST TIME AND DIVINE EXPOSURES OF DARKNESS…
  • A NEW MOVEMENT IS BEING BIRTHED IN THE EARTH…!
  • A RIVER OF REVIVAL AND RESTORATION: THEIR HEELS WILL CRUSH THE HEAD OF THE SERPENT SPIRITS…!
  • A TIME OF SHIFTING BEGINS….!
  • PEACE AND VICTORY COMES ON THE WINGS OF A DOVE…!
  • HIS COVENANT WILL BE RESTORED….!….When suddenly a second beautiful Olive Tree appeared in the Vision and as I looked at the Olive Tree immediately the Spirit of Revelation spoke to me saying, “BEHOLD, THE NATION OF ISRAEL”….now as I looked at the Nation of Israel (the Olive Tree) my eyes were drawn to the DEEP ROOTS OF THE OLIVE TREE AND I WAS SHOWN (3) THREE ROOTS OF THE OLIVE TREE, and as I looked at the roots beneath the ground….I heard these words “FOR I AM THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB”…and then I saw the Beautiful White Dove with the Olive Branch in its mouth fly towards the Olive Tree (The Nation of Israel) and it came to rest upon the branches of the Tree and then I heard these words, “THE OLIVE BRANCH OF PEACE AND VICTORY WILL BE GIVEN AND THE COVENANT OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB SHALL BE RESTORED, FOR EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON MY NAME SHALL BE SAVED”...then I saw the ROOTS OF THE TWO OLIVE TREES (The Nation of America and the Nation of Israel) BECOMING INTERTWINED.

We are witnessing Biblical ‘strong delusions’ – Amir Tsafati

In my intro to Neil Mackereth’s latest The Bandwagon of Deception – Swimming Against the Tide in a Sea of Lies I referred to having been “mulling over 2Thess 2:1-12 on the ‘strong delusion’ God is sending the new Archbishop of Wales before their reckoning”.

Then this morning I came across this item on Amir Tsarfati’s Behold Israel Telegram, but first let’s check the prophetic part of that terribly severe scripture in the New King James Version (all emphases mine). Although not yet applicable in timing, even so the Holy Spirit revealed principle of hatred against Truth must surely apply:

Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.  For the  [d]mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only [e]He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

‘A short message from Amir:

A very dark and demonic cloud is covering the earth right now. We are witnessing the fulfilment of the biblical term “strong delusions”:
•   Doctors now swear that a man can give birth.
•   Minors who can’t vote or buy certain drinks are somehow deemed mature enough to decide to change their sex.
•   Nations commit economic suicide in the name of “climate change” legislation.
•   People join the world’s most oppressive religion in the name of freedom.
•   Food is supplied to people who shelter and support terrorists and hide hostages.
•   The very providers of food and aid are accused of committing genocide.
•   A fake campaign of starvation circulates AI-generated images, photos from other countries, or pictures of genetically caused diseases — while the world’s media stays silent about the only adults truly being starved: the hostages held by these so-called starvation victims.
•   Humanitarian aid distributed for free is called a “death trap,” yet those who hijack the free aid trucks and resell the supplies at exorbitant prices are hailed as heroes.

And now, 600 days after the largest terror attack in the modern history of the Middle East, the perpetrators are rewarded by Western governments with recognition as a state — a move that emboldened the terror group to walk away from a deal to release at least ten living hostages immediately.’

By the way, David Metcalf writes on the poignant idiocy of Western ‘leaders’:

‘On the very day the Arab states call on Hamass to release the hostages lay down their arms and leave Gazza. Up pops Starmer and Carney joining Macron in recognising a Palestinian State. Resulting in Hamass walking out of ceasefire talks, their unwanted interference will result in more unnecessary dead on both sides Idiots !’

17 years after adulation in replica Satan’s seat, Obama loses Jenga Tower and other ‘games’ – part 1

In this blog’s UK/EU series back in April 2016 and Neil Mackereth’s Discussion Paper ‘Stay or Leave?‘ the post on Significant Spiritual Signs contains his flagged annexures, the third of which is Pergamum Altar, Berlin. Neil writes:

In the Book of Revelation, Jesus dictates a letter to the Apostle John, which includes the line: “I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is.” (Rev 2.13)
The throne mentioned here can only refer to one thing – the temple-like structure which is known as the Pergamum Altar, built around 200 BC. This temple is also mentioned by the Roman historian Tacitus (56-117AD) in his Annals, and in Plutarch’s (45-120 AD) Life of Caesar. The mound on which it was situated is still visible today. From what John sees and hears it seems that from the Ascended Christ’s perspective Pergamum is the location in Asia Minor where it can be safely said that “Satan has his throne” and where “Satan lives.”

I add a Footnote with this illustration from Joel Richardson’s blog Joel’s Trumpet about that altar of Zeus (all emphases mine):

‘As an aside, while many saw it as a deeply ominous sign, I personally found it more humorous that when President Obama made his initial acceptance speech in 2008 for the DNC presidential nomination, it was in a nearly perfect replica of what Jesus referred to as “the throne of Satan.” Needless to say many leftist bloggers and news outlets went crazy when I pointed this out.’

Upon my mentioning this in prophetic intercessor Elizabirth Florsch’ Facebook post yesterday on Obama, she replies (emphases mine):

Why this blog watches America’s presidents

In online discussion about current events and President Trump’s character, plus relaying the Lord’s Urgent Warning to the Church Against Hatred (Matt 5:22 and Trump), I was asked why I’m “so zealous” for him.

My interest has arisen from what I’ve learned during my writing ‘assignment’ – and my prophetical background gives a fuller perspective – plus a revelatory ‘authority’ of two occasions of strong Holy Spirit reaction upon my dear wife, and which gets replayed!

So, my interest in Trump is not based solely on what prophets heard from the Lord.

BACKGROUND

Mid-1980s – as recounted in Bio Info’s section ‘Grabbed By An Invisible Hand’, whilst flicking through a book I’d been given as trustee of a New Age group, a documentary on TV uncannily showed a directly relevant event of Iranian and Iraqi elite units rehearsing the storming of Jerusalem!

1989 – months after attending Billy Graham crusade I shut the door to the Gospel but that very night a Visitation from Jesus in person brought an ‘illumination of conscience’ in a near-death experience; recounted in Jesus Freed Me! I began attending Tilehurst Free Church (Baptist), Reading.

1994-5 – Seeking cleansing from that group, I received ministry and acceptance for training in healing and deliverance. Also, I was baptised in the Holy Spirit. Later, I learned about prophecy and received personal prophecies, including on writing.

2001 – During advanced ministry training (incl SRA, satanic ritual abuse) I heard about William Koenig’s news coverage of the Middle-East in World Watch Daily (accredited Christian journalist with the White House press-room).

2005 – Having had two open visions (here and here) I sought advice and attend Revd Dr Sharon Stone’s prophecy masterclass in Bath City Church and her regular meetings.

ASSIGNMENT

2008 – ‘Watching’ began seriously after opening my Bible to check Matthew 13’s parable of wheat and tares only to hear: “This is ALL about to be fulfilled” – WOWEE!!

2009 – So I email friends and follow up Obama’s Middle-East policies, as well as receive a confirmatory ‘Daniel’ prophetic word from Canada’s Isabel Allum. Writing goes public with Richard’s Watch in November 2011. (See New Here?)

2016“LORD are You starting to expose political corruption?” (ie ripening tares) I ask upon reading of investigations into Trump’s finances as the GOP presidential nominee. So, follow closely ‘RussiaGate’ hoax impeachments and ongoing ‘lawfare’ against him. That prophetical query has since proven most affirmative with over 600 updates!!

2016-25 – I note many prophets hear the Lord on America’s politics, especially a friend previously from my Reading church and of which 24 are proven accurate on Trump.

2020 – White House contact explains deep flaws in US elections makes them open to manipulation and fraud; contact with algorithm expert who has to go ‘under the radar’.

2022 – I learn of Trump’s personal ‘MAGA’ mission SINCE 2012 is to remove corruption within US politics: ie. culling Matthew 13 tares! > So, he and I are on the same page!!

2024 – Many other prophets have also been vindicated by US election results.

2020 & 2025 – Nina doesn’t follow news or prophecy, yet can get tangible ‘sizzles’ of the Holy Spirit upon seeing Donald Trump. First, when a friend sent a video clip of him and Melania on the White House balcony at Christmas 2020. Nina got head-to-toe power surges and saw a glory-light surround them.

In January 2025 upon returning home whilst I watched BBC live broadcast from the US Capitol Washington, Nina walked into the room and toward the TV precisely when Donald Trump emerged through curtains in the Rotunda to walk towards podium for his Inauguration as POTUS 47 – a mirror-action and Nina almost fell as Holy Spirit surged rapidly again through her.

NB: by way of confirmation the ‘sizzles’ return whenever Nina talks of what happened!
Note, it also brings the ‘fear’ of the Lord and ‘knowing’ that accusations of his serving evil equate to the unpardonable sin because the Lord is using him.

Moreover, as at the end of this post, whilst telling a friend of both those God-incidents he too got ‘hit’!! Thus, another divine confirmation

Hope this gives an idea of what I believe the Lord is doing in this Biblical battle of good against evil that many prophets are perceiving, and why I’m keen to inform my friends and brothers in the Lord.

VALIDATION

The screenshot below posted this morning on Facebook’s Donald Trump 4 President says it all, as well as confirming the real reason behind his success in exposing and clearing out the demonic deep-state is to fulfill Jesus’ Matthew 13 parable that started my writing on End-times > REMOVAL OF SATANIC SEED SOWN IN JESUS’ FIELD…

“The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
40 As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.”

A very capable helping-hand for PM Netanyahu

When I had more time for covering the Middle-East I often cited this Israeli editor’s insights. Now returned after his exile during the Biden regime, the Christian journalist accredited with The White House and whose daily and weekly reports at Word Watch Daily and Eye-View continue to be informative, William Koenig, refers to Caroline Glick as “Ne plus ultra” – none better.:
