Ezekiel’s gang is meeting in Moscow. Russia, Turkey, and Iran have scheduled a working meeting for next week.

As we have discussed in the past, Jordan will likely become cozy with Ezekiel’s gang and allow Russia and friends into the country to ultimately invade Israel. Are we watching the first steps of Jordan’s turn toward prophecy?

Revelation 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east.

Granted the above verse is from later in the tribulation and the bowl judgments. But, we are trending toward a date with destiny. Make way for the kings of the east. China is asserting itself big time in the Middle East! China is brokering “peace” between ancient rivals like Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Iran. China is ditching the US Dollar and utilizing their currency, the yuan.

Hosea 4:1-3 Hear the word of the LORD, O children of Israel, for the LORD has a case against the people of the land: “There is no truth, no loving devotion, and no knowledge of God in the land! Cursing and lying, murder and stealing, and adultery are rampant; one act of bloodshed follows another. Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea disappear.

Israel Divided

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , on March 27, 2023 by paulthepoke

Luke 11:17 But He knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and a house divided against itself falls. -Jesus

“I call on all the demonstrators in Jerusalem, from the right and from the left, to behave responsibly and not to act violently. We are brothers.” -Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

The issue of Judicial Reform is coming to a head in Israel. At the heart of the matter, does the Supreme Court of Israel have too much power? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and some his supporters on the right say yes. There appears to be fractures on the right.

The opposition on the left says leave the status quo alone, no change. Reforms would damage democracy in Israel.

Sunday, March 26, 2023: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fires fellow Likud Party member and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. This happened one day after Gallant called for a pause in the judicial reform legislation.

“I see the source of our strength eroding. The growing rift in our society is penetrating the IDF and security agencies. This poses a clear, immediate, and tangible threat to the security of the state. I will not lend my hand to this. For the sake of Israel’s security, for the sake of our sons and daughters, the legislative process should be stopped now, to enable the nation of Israel to celebrate Passover and Independence Day together, and to mourn together on Memorial Day and Holocaust Remembrance Day.” -Yoav Gallant

https://www.timesofisrael.com/netanyahu-fires-defense-minister-gallant-for-calling-to-pause-judicial-overhaul

Monday, March 27, 2023: The following is from CNN Jerusalem. Israel’s largest trade union announced a strike closing transportation, universities, restaurants and retailers.

Israeli diplomats in embassies from Washington DC, London and Paris joined the strike as well.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/27/middleeast/israel-judicial-overhaul-legislation-intl/index.html

As of this afternoon, Netanyahu agreed to stop reforms for now as protests continued in the hundreds of thousands across Israel. The judicial reform plan for this session of parliament has been postponed. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Prime Minister Netanyahu agreed to table the issue.

https://www.foxnews.com/world/israels-netanyahu-agrees-halt-judicial-reform-for-now-mass-protests-continue

“There is one other thing that characterizes the judiciary in Israel and that is that the judges veto the appointment of judges, they effectively select themselves and that doesn’t exist in any democracy. The reform that we’re dealing with right now corrects that.” -Prime Minister Netanyahu, Piers Morgan Uncensored

https://nation.foxnews.com/piers-morgan-uncensored/

Israel is ripe for a political leader who will bring unity and healing.

1 John 2:18 Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.

Daniel 8:23-25 “In the latter period of their rule, when the transgressors have run their course, a king will arise, insolent and skilled in intrigue. His power will be mighty, but not by his own power, and he will destroy to an extraordinary degree and prosper and perform his will; he will destroy mighty men and the holy people. And through his shrewdness he will cause deceit to succeed by his influence; and he will magnify himself in his heart, and he will destroy many while they are at ease. He will even oppose the Prince of princes, but he will be broken without human agency”.

IF time is winding down and IF we are on the verge of His (Jesus) arrival, he (antichrist) is watching and he is scheming.

Be on alert. Pay attention. Think. Discern.

Credit Event Coming??? Michael Douville

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Michael Douville with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on March 25, 2023 by paulthepoke

Proverbs 27:12 The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it.

Proverbs 4:13 Hold on to instruction; do not let go. Guard it, for it is your life.

Are we entering another Credit Event? I remember Lehman Brothers and Bear Stears. These events start slow and gather speed until things start to cascade.

Germany’s Deutsche Bank is in the news. Credit Default Swaps (insurance) are soaring! Tier 1 Bonds are crashing. Did Deutsche Bank receive $60 billion in Federal Reserve Foreign Repo Agreements?

European banks hold bonds yielding less than 0%. They are losing money big time as interest rates go up.

Global liquidity and money are in short supply. Liquidity is the fuel of the economy. Bank deposits are decreasing. Things are getting more difficult to get a loan.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is focused on lowering inflation. He says interest rates are not coming down any time soon.

Michael Douville recommends reading an article, Too Small To Not Fail, A Short History of the World by Danielle DiMartino Booth. For those not familiar, Danielle is a former Federal Reserve Insider. She is the CEO & Chief Strategist, Quill Intelligence LLC, and Economist.

Instead of mass mobilizing against Powell as if he was the reincarnation of King Louis XVI, why not grow up? In the absence of a solution without consequences, he’s made an attempt to steer the economy into the first recession from which it has the slightest chance of exiting without the dead weight of zombie companies, without the corrupt practice of anointing Wall Street’s kingpins the de facto makers of monetary policy. A wise man once said, “There is no such thing as a free lunch.”

Damn right there’s not. Perhaps we accept the truth in this wisdom and, in doing so, the consequences of our actions. -Danielle DiMartino Booth

Michael Douville With… Charles Nenner: The Whole System is Shaky! Will the Fed Raise rates?

Proverbs 22:3 The prudent see danger and take cover, but the simple keep going and suffer the consequences.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven…

Ecclesiastes 7:12 For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money, and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.

Michael Douville and Charles Nenner discuss the latest in economic and market news. What’s coming next. Dr. Nenner is one of the world’s best when it comes to economic cycles.

What an amazing interview.

Charles Nenner believes the current Banking Crisis will resolve itself for a short time only. The Banking Index will rise for a “Bounce” only. Charles believes the Whole System is ready to go under.

We need to make plans.

One of the 3 strategies would be trading. This is not a “Buy and Hold” environment.

Charles also believes Inflation will start up again after May.

We are in for a “terrible” time. Charles’ War Cycle and Civil Disruption are turning up.

It is time to be cautious. Build cash reserves. Hold some cash at home, and when buying physical gold, take possession.

This Week in Prophecy: Pope Denies Hell; Russia; China; Banking Woes

Posted in #PaulthePoke, China, Ezekiel 38-39, Hell, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on March 18, 2023 by paulthepoke

Matthew 10:28 “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” -Jesus

See also Luke 12:5, Revelation 20:14, 15, 21:8 (Lake of Fire)

Pope Francis denies the physical existence of Hell.

Hell is not a place. If one goes to attend the Last Judgment, and sees the faces of those who go to Hell, one gets scared. If you read Dante, you get scared. But these are media representations.

Hell is a state, there are people who live in Hell continuously.” -Pope Francis

With these comments, along with others, the Vatican went into spin mode.

All official, final texts of the Holy Father are found on the Vatican website,” and since they were never published by the Holy See Press Office they “should not be considered official texts.” -Holy See Press Office

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/pope-francis-denies-that-hell-is-a-place-says-it-is-a-posture-towards-life/

Ezekiel 38: Sons of Magog and Rosh, modern day Russia. For more details on ancient Magog, click on the link below.

Tension is on the rise with Russia attempting to spray a U.S. drone with jet fuel over the Black Sea in international waters. The Russian pilot got a little too close for comfort and appears to graze the drone.

The International Criminal Court has issued a warrant for the arrest of Russian President Vladimir Putin as a war criminal for illegally exporting Ukrainian children.

Revelation 9:16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.

Tension increases in the Pacific. The United States and the United Kingdom have agreed to sell nuclear submarines to Australia.

The United States has sold 220 Tomahawk cruise missiles to Australia. Japan may be interested in buying cruise missiles as well.

China’s President Xi is headed to Moscow early next week. The focus is peace between Russia and Ukraine. Some think China is on the verge of a weapon’s deal with the Russians.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64986486

~

Leviticus 19:36 You shall have honest scales, honest weights, an honest ephah, and an honest hin: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

God wants honesty when it comes to economic matters.

The last couple of weeks in financial markets and global economics has been rocky. In the last two business weeks 5 banks have crashed. The United States has witnessed two of its largest bank failures in history.

Moody’s Investor Service has downgraded the entire United States banking system to negative.

We have changed to negative from stable our outlook on the US banking system to reflect the rapid deterioration in the operating environment following deposit runs at Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Silvergate Bank, and Signature Bank (SNY) and the failures of SVB and SNY.” -Moody’s

The banks in the United States includes: Silvergate Bank, Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic Bank. The mess has made its way across the Atlantic to Europe. Switzerland’s Credit Suisse required a bailout from the Swiss government.

The US Department of Treasury decided to insure all depositors in banks that expose a “systemic risk exception”, even those above the insured threshold of $250,000. The two banks who meet this “exception” include Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. All depositors were “made whole”.

https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1337

This “exception” appears to be on a case by case basis as decided by the boards of the FDIC, the Federal Reserve, President Biden, Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen.

During hearings with the Senate, Oklahoma Senator James Lankford (R) pressed Secretary Yellen. This exchange was extraordinary.

Banks only get the treatment if the failure to protected uninsured depositors would create systemic risk.” -Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen

PLEASE WATCH!

If a bank does not meet the threshold of “exception” and one has deposits over the FDIC insured amount of $250,000 in said bank, tough! No bailout for you!

Plan Accordingly!!!

Money is flying out of smaller banks and being deposited into Tier 1 Wall Street banks. These Tier 1 banks include JP Morgan, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup. And the rich get richer.

Will Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell raise interest rates next week?

The Debt Limit deadline looms some time around April 2023. The United States has wracked up $31.4 trillion in debt (31,400,000,000,000). Secretary Yellen has already warned Congress that if the Debt Limit is not increased, it would be crushing to the banking system.

Buckle up! This is going to get rough!

Is all of this dishonesty in the banking industry reaching a tipping point? God says judgment is ultimately coming.

Micah 6:11-13 Can I excuse dishonest scales or bags of false weights? For the wealthy of the city are full of violence, and its residents speak lies; their tongues are deceitful in their mouths. Therefore I am striking you severely, to ruin you because of your sins. -The LORD God

Defining “Homeless”… Christine McDonald

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Christine "Clarity" McDonald with tags , , , , on March 16, 2023 by paulthepoke

I have some special considerations for faith–based service providers, be it shelters, feeding lines, or residential programs. I want you to consider some of the things that I, as a former homeless individual, want to express, and an example or two of lived experiences that will be helpful for you to consider along with your programs.

The term “homeless” seems to have various meanings depending on whom you ask.

For those of us who have lived without any shelter, without a means to eat, safely sleep, clean up, change clothes, or even go to the bathroom, we mean the term quite literally.

Some people, however, think that sleeping in their car, crashing on a buddy’s couch for any length of time, or living in transitional housing is also being “homeless.”

Even now it baffles me when someone says, “I was homeless, too. I had to live in my car for two weeks.”

Or, “I was homeless once. I had to sleep on the couch in my friend’s basement.”

Or, “I was homeless. I lived in a transitional program.”

Another one I’ve heard is, “I was homeless for six months, and I had to live in a hotel and did not have a car. I had to drive a rental.”

This isn’t the kind of homelessness I endured.

My definition of homeless includes my own experiences of climbing in a dumpster to relieve myself, or sneaking into someone’s yard to use their hose just to get a drink or to wash off. It includes washing off in a public fountain, and stealing half–eaten food off the table at a restaurant because I didn’t feel safe standing in line at the local soup kitchen, especially when the majority of partakers there were male and I was a known prostitute.

I often feel that much of the world, or at least those in our Western culture, don’t understand constantly being on the move because it’s safer. I don’t think general American society understands having to walk all day, stand all night, or sometimes get high just to ward off the hunger or to stay awake a few hours longer because you don’t have a safe place to sleep.

The inherent dangers of this level of homelessness must be truly understood in order to be addressed properly.

Safety and security are often tied with hunger when it comes to a person’s most basic needs. Just because we offer a “shelter” or “temporary housing” doesn’t mean that a person who is truly homeless will take advantage of the opportunity if they feel safer on the streets.

Many shelters offer no protection for those seeking services, and the ones that would be a good place to stay often come with so many strings attached that a person who has been homeless for any length of time may not ever be able to qualify for a bed.

The blocks surrounding shelters are also often “hangout” areas for drug dealers, pimps, and predators watching for their next victim, so individuals frequently steer clear of these places because of the risks they take just walking to them, or in the mornings when exiting them.

This Week in Prophecy: Saudi’s & Peace, Israel & Iran Nuke Program, Israeli Gas, China Is Busy

Posted in #PaulthePoke, China, Prophecy, Saudi Arabia/Sheba/Dedan with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on March 10, 2023 by paulthepoke

On This Week in Prophecy: The Saudis name their terms for peace with the Israelis. They want to develop nuclear power, for peaceful purposes of course. The Saudis would also like some assurances from the United States in regards to security. Will the United States agree? Will Saudi Arabia join the Abraham Accords?

https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-733877

Many think Israel is on the verge of striking Iran’s nuclear program.

Ezekiel 38-39

After the meeting, Prime Minister Netanyahu was off to Italy. He was offering a deal, Israeli gas and Italy recognize Jerusalem as its capital.

And then there is natural gas. We have a lot of it and I would like to discuss how to get it to Italy to support your economic growth.

I believe the time has come for Rome to recognize Jerusalem as the ancestral capital of the Jewish people for three thousand years, as the United States did with a gesture of great friendship,” PM Netanyahu.

Boom to Bust in 2024… Michael Douville

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Michael Douville with tags , , , , , , on March 7, 2023 by paulthepoke

Proverbs 27:12 The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it.

Proverbs 22:3 The prudent see danger and take cover, but the simple keep going and suffer the consequences.

I think we have a major recession coming. I have been talking about this for a long time. These recessions do not start tomorrow, there are signposts along the way. The signs have not changed the Recession is coming, it’s coming, it’s coming.

We have talked about this since March of 2022. You have had plenty of time to get your house in order: Build cash reserves, get out of debt.

It takes 8-15 months for the rate increases to be felt; it’s called the Lag Effect. I think we have an Economic Bust coming.

We have had a Boom. In 2020, the Pandemic came along and scared everyone. The economy went in the tank.

The policy response was to pump $ trillions into the Economy; $10 Trillion just here in the US. Central Banks around the world added another $10 Trillion which caused the Inflation Monster.

Liquidity is drying up. Quantitative tightening is happening. Countries around the world are struggling to pay their bills. This is not a third world problem. Even Switzerland is running out of cash. How long before bubbles start to pop?

Appreciation of Home Prices Nationally are slowing and will soon be negative. States like California, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New York, New Jersey will suffer more due to the difference in Population Migration. San Francisco has already lost 35% in value. This will be a national issue. Florida, Texas, and Arizona offer the best investment returns.

Proverbs 9:9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

Rumors… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags on March 4, 2023 by paulthepoke

Rumors are started by those that want to draw attention away from their own darkness. Jealousy & their own misery will make people talk. If you weren’t there & didn’t see it, take what you hear with a grain of salt & don’t repeat it.

I could tell someone that I saw so & so talking to so & so at a quick stop & by the time it is told to 10 people…the rumor is I saw them robbing the quick stop & having sex in the get away car. 

Rumors are ridiculous & can destroy lives. If you are not talking good about someone, don’t talk about them at all.

James 1:26 If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.

James 4:11-12 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against his brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law & judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver & judge, he who is able to save & to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

Have a rumor free weekend my friends!!!

Purim 5783/2023: Spirit of Haman Alive & Focused

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Ezekiel 38-39, Persia/Elam/Iran, Purim, Trend Update with tags , , on March 1, 2023 by paulthepoke

Esther 9:20-22 Then Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, both near and far, obliging them to celebrate the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same month, annually, because on those days the Jews rid themselves of their enemies, and it was a month which was turned for them from sorrow into gladness and from mourning into a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and rejoicing and sending portions of food to one another and gifts to the poor.

The celebration is to take place in the Hebrew month of Adar on the 14th and 15th day. In the Gregorian year of 2023, the event starts on sundown Monday, March 6th and ends the next day on Tuesday, March 7th. Scripture tells us the holiday is to be celebrated annually.

Esther is a unique book in the Bible in that God’s name is not written or used. Even though God’s name is not seen, it is obvious Who is in control of the events of the narrative.

The spirit of Haman is alive and well in the ancient land the Bible calls Persia. We call it modern day Iran.

Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl made news with a comment regarding Iran. He was speaking to a Congressional Committee. Kahl is the third ranking Defense Department official.

Because Iran’s nuclear progress since we left the JCPOA has been remarkable. Back in 2018, when the previous administration decided to leave the JCPOA it would have taken Iran about 12 months to produce one bomb’s worth of fissile material. Now it would take about 12 days.

https://www.voanews.com/a/iaea-report-says-discussions-with-iran-about-near-weapons-grade-enrichment-ongoing-/6984106.html

Iran is becoming more than a regional threat. The Pentagon sees Iran as a global threat. The reason, Iran’s relationship with Russia.

We are now at a point where Iranian threats are no longer specific to the Middle East, but a global challenge,” Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Dana Stroul.

It is reasonable to expect that the tactics, techniques and procedures that the Iranians are learning and perfecting in Ukraine will one day come back to our partners in the Middle East, which is why we are increasing cooperation now, intelligence sharing, understanding these networks and increasing our collective defensive capabilities so that we are prepared to counter these threats in the region.

We know that the Iranians have already provided hundreds or armed drones to the Russians. We know that they’ve provided ammunition for artillery and for tanks, as well,” William Burns, Director, CIA.

https://www.voanews.com/a/pentagon-iran-a-global-challenge-due-to-alliance-with-russia-/6982757.html

As a pattern of history, things did not work out well for Haman and those hostile to God’s chosen people. And things will not work out well for modern day Iran and friends and their hostility towards Israel.

Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon that is formed against you will succeed; and you will condemn every tongue that accuses you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD.

Isaiah 40:15-17 Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are counted as the small dust on the scales; look, He lifts up the isles as a very little thing. And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor its beasts sufficient for a burnt offering. All nations before Him are as nothing, and they are counted by Him less than nothing and worthless.
