Purim 5950/5786/2026

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.

Time, Time, Time.

Operation Epic Fury was initiated on Saturday, February 28, 2026 on our western Gregorian Calendar.

The attack was initiated during the Islamic Holy month of Ramadan.

Of significant note, Epic Fury was initiated on Purim of the Dead Sea Scroll calendar. For me, the solar Dead Sea Scroll calendar just took on more significance than the traditional lunar Hebrew calendar.

Traditionally, according to the secular, lunar Hebrew calendar, Purim occurred on the evening of Monday, March 2, 2026 through sunset Tuesday, March 3, 2026. And with that, there was a blood red moon lunar eclipse.

US Build Up in the Middle East

Mark 13:7-8 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, as well as famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.

And this happened in Tel Aviv…

And the build begins…

This Week in Prophecy: UNRWA in Gaza, Sidon, Red Sea, #7

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 25, 2024 by paulthepoke

Amos 1:6-7 This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Gaza, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they exiled a whole population, delivering them up to Edom. So I will send fire upon the walls of Gaza, to consume its citadels.

Per the United Nations Relief and Work Agency (UNRWA) website… UNRWA human development and humanitarian services encompass primary and vocational education, primary health care, relief and social services, infrastructure and camp improvement, microfinance and emergency response, including in situations of armed conflict.

Turns out, UNRWA is providing human and technical resources to Hamas in Gaza.

Psalm 136:13 To Him who divided the Red Sea in two, for His mercy endures forever…

The United States is approaching six weeks of bombing against the Houthis in Yemen. The Red Sea remains closed.

As of February 21, 2024, The Houthis have launched 57 attacks. United States posturing and comments seems to indicate this situation is not going to stop any time soon.

“I think we need to recognize that CENTCOM has been starved of the kinds of assets they need to do this work for a while… We need to make a commitment to giving CENTCOM more of these resources, and then I think they’ll be more effective in these tasks,” retired General Frank McKenzie.

The British registered tanker Rubymar was attacked by the Houthis. The event took place in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The result was an 18 mile oil slick along with 41,000 tons of fertilizer being spilled into the ocean.

The meaning of the number 7 in the Bible… Completion, Fullness, Perfection.

Seven (7): Shiba in the Hebrew occurs 394 times in the Old Testament. ἑπτά/Hepta in the Greek occurs 88 times in the New Testament.

Completion, fullness, perfection… it’s coming.
