This Week in Prophecy: BRICS Conference, Prigozhin, Euphrates & Tabqa Dam, Theft

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Euphrates River, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , on August 27, 2023 by paulthepoke

Revelation 13:16-17 And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.

It would appear the world is looking to break the dollar’s hold as the reserve currency of the planet. To be clear, we are not in the tribulation. Currently, there is not a one world currency system in place for global economics.

BRICS Officially Agrees To End Use Of US Dollar

Based on a variety of studies, the BRICS membership will control 50 to 80% of the world’s oil production. Things get real interesting if Venezuela, Iraq, and Libya join the BRICS. It’s pretty simple math. There are more people in the BRICS members. The BRICS and friends eventually will have a larger economy than the west.

Ezekiel 38:1-3 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.

Is Vladimir Putin the ancient figure Gog as described by Ezekiel? I would lean towards no. But if Putin is, we are on the fast track for some serious end times action!

Two months to the day of the attempted coup to overthrow Vladimir Putin, The head of Wagner Group Yevgeny Prigozhin has died in a plane crash. The latest is a bomb was planted on the plane. The Kremlin has denied any part of the incident. Accusations of Putin’s involvement are “absolute lies.”

Jeremiah 50:38-39 A drought against her waters, that they may be dried up! For it is a land of images, and they are mad over idols. “Therefore wild beasts shall dwell with hyenas in Babylon, and ostriches shall dwell in her. She shall never again have people, nor be inhabited for all generations.

Arguably the Euphrates and the Tigris Rivers go dry in the end times in the ancient Babylonian Empire or what is modern day Iraq. We know from Revelation 16, the Euphrates goes dry.

The Euphrates River at the Tabqa Dam in Syria is at its lowest point in recorded history.

This Week in Prophecy: BRICS Currency, Cluster Bombs, The Dutch, Sound of Freedom, Blasphemy

Zephaniah 1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them on the day of the wrath of the LORD. In the fire of His jealousy, all the earth shall be consumed; for a full and sudden end He will make of all the inhabitants of the earth.

Russia has announced the BRICS countries are moving forward with a gold back currency. The big announcement is officially slated for next month, August 2023, in South Africa.

Jim Rickards has a $15,000 price target on an ounce of gold by 2025.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen recently made the flight to China. Her statement below was in China. Yellen downplays the role of a future gold backed currency. Yellen declared 90% of global transactions are in dollars and the dollar will continue to be the world’s reserve currency.

Cluster bombs are going to Ukraine. President Biden has announced another military package.

This time, the tally is $800 million. Weapons are escalating. The Ukrainians are running low on ammunition. And it appears the United States has a dwindling supply of arms.

~

Revelation 6:6 And I heard what sounded like a voice from among the four living creatures, saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine.”

New leadership is coming to Holland. Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and his government has resigned. On the surface, immigration policy is the primary consideration. The Prime Minister was also trying to confiscate about 3,000 private farms. Many think this land grab was his solution to the immigration crisis.

Keep in mind, Netherlands is the second largest food exporter in the world behind the United States. Agriculture is over a 100 billion Euro business.

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

In other Dutch news… 22-year-old Rikkie Valerie Kolle, a biological male, was crowned Miss Nederland. Rikkie will move on to compete in the Miss Universe pageant.

Revelation 18:13b-14 …cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and slaves, that is, human souls.

And they will say: “The fruit of your soul’s desire (lust) has departed from you; all your luxury (lipos in the Greek or “fat”) and splendor have vanished, never to be seen again.”

The context above is mystery Babylon faces judgment. The time frame is late in the seven year tribulation.

The main stream media is having a fit over the movie, Sound of Freedom. After all this movie was more popular than the latest installment of Indiana Jones…

Film Synopsis:

Sound of Freedom, based on the incredible true story, shines a light on even the darkest of places. After rescuing a young boy from ruthless child traffickers, a federal agent learns the boy’s sister is still captive and decides to embark on a dangerous mission to save her. With time running out, he quits his job and journeys deep into the Colombian jungle, putting his life on the line to free her from a fate worse than death.

The press has received their marching orders and organized their message. They choose to enable evil.

2 Timothy 4:3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions…

Idolatry, Blasphemy… The Sparkle Creed

I shutter to give this any attention. However, this is where we are in time prior to His coming. For those who think…

2 Peter 3:4 …and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation.”

Judgment is coming…

This Week in Prophecy: Israel & Egypt Border; Med Gas; Erdogan Wins; BRICS Currency; God?

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Egypt/Nile River, Ezekiel 38-39, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on June 4, 2023 by paulthepoke

Ezekiel 38:3-4 …and say, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. And I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armor, a great host, all of them with buckler and shield, wielding swords.

Israel discovers more natural gas in the Mediterranean Sea. The Katlan gas field has an estimated 68 billion cubic meters (BCM) of natural gas. When combining the Leviathan, Tamar, Karish, and Tanin gas fields, Israel has over 1,000 BCM of natural gas reserves. Israel consumes approximately 13 BCM per year. More bait to set the hooks (plural) in Gog’s jaw.

This Week in Prophecy: Sudan, Locusts, Putin & China, Flooding in FL, DE dollarization, Lawlessness, & COVID’s Over

Posted in #PaulthePoke, China, Culture, Ezekiel 38-39, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 15, 2023 by paulthepoke

On This Week in Prophecy…

Ezekiel 38:5 Persia, Cush and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet…

Ezekiel states Russia, Turkey, Iran and allies are prophesied to invade Israel (Ezekiel 38-39). Arguably, Sudan may join Magog (modern day Russia) in their invasion of Israel at some point in the future.

Fighting has broken out in the capital of Khartoum, Sudan. The Sudanese army has engaged with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The RSF has claimed to have captured Egyptian military forces.

Violence is spreading throughout the country.

As of this report, fifty seven civilians on the ground have been killed. Air travel to Sudan has been stopped. A passenger plane has been hit by a projectile. Two people aboard the plane have been killed.

The World Food Program has stopped services after three staff were killed.

Sudan’s Joint Chiefs of Staff says that there will be no negotiations or dialogue before the dissolution of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). – Reuters

The Rapid Support Forces control 90% of the military areas in Sudan. -Sky News Arabia

Remember, Sudan is a member of the Abraham Accords with Israel.

Israel & Sudan Agree to Peace, October 2020

Genesis 2:13 The name of the second river is the Gihon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Cush.

This is the first mention in the Bible of the land south of Egypt. The Hebrew word is Cush. It is translated as Cush or Ethiopia in the biblical text. It is a land in the southern Nile River valley. This is modern day Sudan.

~

Exodus 10:4 Or else, if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.

As Ramadan comes to a close… this happened. The Great Mosque in Mecca was inundated with locusts. There may have been a few cockroaches as well.

Mecca hit by “plague of locusts” during Ramadan rainfall

Russian President Vladimir Putin hosted Chinese Defense Minister General Li Shangfu for a “working meeting” in Moscow. Russia and China declared “no limits” in their relationship.

Daniel 9:26 Then after the sixty-two weeks, the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined.

Fort Lauderdale, FL: This past Wednesday, 25 inches of rain fell in less than 24 hours. The airport was closed and looked like a lake.

The event is incredibly rare. It has been viewed as a 1-in-1,000-year event.

“April is still considered the dry season in southern Florida with Fort Lauderdale averaging only 3.70 inches of rain for the month of April. The rainiest time in South Florida is from June through September.” AccuWeather Meteorologist Alex DaSilva.

One World Currency and Economy

The DE dollarization Movement has begun and effectively started at the beginning of April, 2023. The clock towards Revelation 13 has begun ticking in earnest.

Revelation 13:16-17 And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.

Brazilian President Lula was speaking at the New Development Bank of Shanghai, China.

“Why can’t we do trade based on our own currencies? Who was it that decided that the dollar was the currency after the disappearance of the gold standard? Why can’t a bank like that of the BRICS have a currency to finance trade relations between Brazil and China, between Brazil and other countries? It’s difficult because we are unaccustomed. Everyone depends on just one currency.” Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President, Brazil.

This Week in Prophecy: Passover, De-dollarization, Oil, CBDC’s, Finland Joins NATO, Papua New Guinea Quake, Innocent Until Proven Guilty

Posted in #PaulthePoke, China, Ezekiel 38-39, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 6, 2023 by paulthepoke

Exodus 12:6 You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month, then the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel is to slaughter it at twilight.

The Passover Sacrifice took place near the Dung Gate in Jerusalem. The Dung Gate is located south of the Western Wall and looks over the City of David.

Passover sacrifice reenactment takes place adjacent to the Temple Mount

Rafael Morris of the Returning to the Mount movement was held by local authorities under suspicion for potentially sacrificing a Paschal Lamb on the Temple Mount. This year, the Returning to the Mount movement raised the anti to 20,000 shekels (roughly $5,600) for anyone attempting or finishing the sacrifice on the Temple Mount.

The globe is looking to dump the US Dollar. The purge has begun. Malaysia has joined the exodus this week.

https://www.aier.org/article/de-dollarization-has-begun/

Revelation 6:6b “…and do not harm the oil and wine.”

OPEC and Russia agreed to cut oil production by 1.6 million barrels per day to the global supply. Oil immediately spiked 6-8% in pre market trading.

The Biblical countries in the end times scenario are involved. Israel, Russia, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, China and arguably India as a king of the east.

Russia and India dump the Brent Crude Market and turn to the Middle East and Dubai. Dubai will now set the market price for a barrel of oil. The move indicates a shift away from the west and dollars to the east and likely the Chinese yuan.

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.
