Joel 2:1 Blow the ram’s horn in Zion; sound the alarm on My holy mountain! Let all who dwell in the land tremble, for the Day of the LORD is coming; indeed, it is near…

On Thursday, the first day of Rosh Hashanah, a group of Jews smuggled shofarot (ritual rams’ horns) onto the Temple Mount and, despite police efforts to stop them, blew all of the requisite shofar blasts for the holiday. It should be emphasized that this is most probably the first time since the Second Temple stood that the shofar has sounded at Judaism’s holiest site. -Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz

Isaiah 54:17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD.

Ezekiel 38-39 Gog of Magog, Rosh or modern day Russia.

Russia has been moving naval assets into Latakia, Syria since at least 2015. Latakia is on the Mediterranean Sea and home to Khmeimim Air Base.

This Week in Prophecy: Hostage Exchange, Black Sea Weather, Red Sea Pirates, Venezuela Invading?

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Ezekiel 38-39, Gaza Strip/Philistia, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 29, 2023 by paulthepoke

Zephaniah 2:4-5 For Gaza shall be deserted, and Ashkelon shall become a desolation; Ashdod’s people shall be driven out at noon, and Ekron shall be uprooted. Woe to you inhabitants of the seacoast, you nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; and I will destroy you until no inhabitant is left.

Here is the latest from the Gaza Strip. The hostage exchanges are coming to a close. Well, maybe… The truce and hostage exchange has been extended another two days.

Ezekiel 38:22-23 I will execute judgment upon him with plague and bloodshed. I will pour out torrents of rain, hailstones, fire, and sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him. I will magnify and sanctify Myself, and will reveal Myself in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.

The events above are not the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38. The context of those verses are modern day northern Israel in and around the Golan Heights. This is a little taste of what is to come for Magog, modern day Russia, and friends (Turkey, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Ethiopia, others and proxies).

Russia and Turkey are looking to have a natural gas hub in Turkey. Russia’s Gazprom and Turkey’s Botas are working together.

“I am sure that agreements on the practical implementation of this project will be reached in the near future,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak.

Psalm 136:15 …but overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea, for His steadfast love endures forever…

A friendly reminder to those who want to mess with the Israelites in the Red Sea…

Terrorist and pirate activity in the Red Sea is increasing. The Iranian backed Houthis are hijacking ships, especially those they believe belong to or have ties with Israel.

And there will be wars and rumors of wars… -Jesus

Rumor has it Venezuela is looking to invade Guyana. Brazil is mobilizing troops to their northern border. South America is getting more interesting. Oil and gas are at the heart of the matter.

TWIP: Israel & Lebanon Gas Deal?; Crimean Kerch Bridge Fallout; Kim Jung Un; Food Inflation

Isaiah 10:34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an axe, and Lebanon will fall by the Majestic One.

On This Week in Prophecy… It would appear Israel and Lebanon have reached a historic agreement in regards to maritime borders and the development of natural gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea. The agreement has not been signed on the dotted line. Details are beginning to leak out into news outlets.

Israel appears to have its security concerns addressed and met. The Karish gas field will likely remain under Israeli control.

Lebanon will get the economic benefit of the Qana gas field. Total Energy of France will help develop the gas field. Allegedly…

The devil will be in the details…

Ezekiel 38:1… The word of the LORD came to me: “Son of man, set your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him and say, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against you, O Gog…

The Kerch Bridge connecting the Crimea Peninsula and the mainland of Russia was blown up over the weekend. Russian President Vladimir Putin was personally involved with the opening of the bridge a few years ago. The explosion of the bridge occurred on Putin’s birthday.

Russia has since responded with heavy missile attacks across Ukraine over the past two days. Utilities including electricity and water have been destroyed throughout Ukraine.

Things are escalating quickly…

Revelation 6:5-6 When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of 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!”

Grain container barges are backed up on the Mississippi River. Drought has resulted in lower water levels on the mighty river. The result is shipping costs are going through the roof.

A Dutch seed and plant company is shutting its doors in April 2023 due to the rising cost of energy, wages, and red tape. This is yet another example of food supply chains being squeezed.

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Ezekiel 38-39, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 21, 2022 by paulthepoke

Russian President Vladimir Putin has recognized the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Luhansk People’s Republic as independent countries with the stroke of his pen.

Putin has authorized the movement of Russian troops as “peace keepers” into eastern Ukraine.

Russian troop movements into Ukraine have been confirmed by multiple sources.

Russian naval resources have sealed off the Sea of Azov east of the Crimean Peninsula. War ships are also spotted west of Crimea near Odessa, Ukraine.

Additional Russian military hardware continues to move into Syria.

President Biden, the EU, France, Germany, and Great Britain have expressed their disapproval. Economic sanctions appear to be on the near horizon.

Magog is on the move…

Ezekiel 38:4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws, and bring you out with all your army—your horses, your horsemen in full armor, and a great company armed with shields and bucklers, all brandishing their swords.

Today In Prophecy: Russia & Ukraine, Israel Land of Milk & Honey, Antichrist Watch & Canada

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 17, 2022 by paulthepoke

The latest on Russia and Ukraine… Russia says they are withdrawing military equipment. Well yes and no… Actions speak louder than words.

Ezekiel 38 discusses how Gog of Magog will plunder livestock and cattle from Israel. Israel’s dairy production is in the news. Israel is home to the most productive dairy cattle in the world.

Ezekiel 38:12b-13 …who have acquired livestock and possessions and who live at the center of the land. Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize great spoil?’

Antichrist and Beast Watch… Another global leader is tying behavior to economic participation. Prime Minister Trudeau of Canada invokes the Emergencies Act. Bank assets are being frozen. Major banks in Canada were offline. Banks were given broad and sweeping powers to freeze the accounts of others.

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