Revelation 9:16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.
There are two countries who could mount this size of an army, India or China. Who knows this could be multinational force? They are also known as the “Kings from the East” in Revelation 16:12.

The Philippines was home to two big quakes in back to back days in October. Keep in mind, the islands experienced a 6.9 earthquake just a few days earlier on September 30, 2025.
From the recent event, dozens have been injured and seven have perished. Infrastructure has been impacted. Local authorities estimate over $43 million in damages. Tsunamis resulted in minimal damages.

Acts 8:1 And Saul was there, giving approval to Stephen’s death. On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria.
BREAKING:
For the first time since 1967, the Knesset just passed a declaration on applying Israel's sovereignty over Judea & Samaria with a BROAD MAJORITY.
Judea, Samaria, and the Jordan Valley are an inseparable part of the Land of Israel — the historic, cultural, and spiritual homeland of the Jewish people.
Centuries and millennia before the establishment of the modern State, the forefathers and prophets of the nation lived and acted in these regions. Here, the foundations of Jewish faith and culture were laid. Cities like Hebron, Shechem (Nablus), Shiloh, and Beit El are not merely historical sites — they are living expressions of the continuous Jewish presence in the Land.
Sovereignty in Judea and Samaria is an inseparable component of the fulfillment of Zionism and the national vision of the Jewish people’s return to its homeland.
The Shmini Atzeret Massacre of October 7, 2023, proved that the establishment of a Palestinian state poses an existential threat to Israel, its citizens, and the entire region.
In its decision of 12th of Tammuz 5784 (July 18, 2024), the Knesset declared its opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state west of the Jordan River, affirming that such a state would endanger Israel and its citizens, perpetuate the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and destabilize the region. This resolution removed the idea of a Palestinian state from the national agenda.
Daniel 9:26 Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. Then the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood, and until the end there will be war; desolations have been decreed.
Yours truly was on the end of a local flood in the Kansas City metro. We’ve had two rounds of flooding rains in the past week. 10.5 inches of rain occurred over night. Our basement took on a few inches of water. Lots of damage observed here locally. Fortunately, no injuries at our place, just a big mess to clean up. Ahhhh, the smell of bleach.
Between Jan. 1 and July 18, the U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) issued more than 3,200 flash flood warnings from coast to coast. To put that into perspective, the NWS has issued an average of 3,938 flash flood warnings per year for the past ten years—and it’s only the middle of July.
Mount Rainier is experiencing a record breaking swarm or cluster of quakes. Don’t worry, the experts say this is normal…
By the numbers: As of Friday, researchers had analyzed 780 of about 1,200 tremors recorded at the 20 seismic stations on or near the volcano since July 8, according to the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network (PNSN).
The Watchmen, just a couple of dudes sitting on the wall watching the world…
In this episode of The Watchmen we look at the destruction of Joseph’s Tomb in Nablus.
Mark 3:24-25 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
Revelation 2:9 I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich) and the slander of those who say that they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
Israel’s fractured coalition government is splintering. Coalition whip Idit Silman from Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s Yamina party announced she was joining the opposition led by Benjamin Netanyahu, allegedly.
Waves of terror from the Palestinians continue across Israel during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. The Mosaic Law’s Spring Feast of Passover is set for later this week. Civil tension is growing.

The ripple effects from the war are having economic implications. Turkey is experiencing historic inflation. Lebanon has declared bankruptcy.
China has locked down 25,000,000 in Shanghai due to a COVID 19 variant. People are starving. Supply chain disruptions are occurring in the world’s largest logistical port.
The chatter around the Iran Nuclear deal continues. What does the arrest of 2 men in Washington have to do with this? Where did they come from? Visas trace their activity back to Iran and Pakistan.
The Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, has received a vote of no confidence and has been ousted from power. Who is behind this? People are taking to the streets across Pakistan by the thousands protesting. Pakistan is home to the largest Shia population outside of Iran. Something smells fishy…
All of this and more from the Watchmen. Click on the link below for content and analysis.
Joseph’s Tomb is a heritage site sacred to Jews, Muslims and Christians.
Palestinian rioters vandalized and set fire to the tomb last night.

1 Thessalonians 5:3 While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
Scripture says “peace and security” covenants, deals, treaties (take your pick) are inevitable. These are signs of the end times scenario.
Things have been quiet on the “peace front” since Joe Biden has become President of the United States… until now.
Multiple reports are coming out of Israel and Arab news sources. The Biden Administration has reached out to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS). In September 2021, White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan went to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and discussed the idea with MBS. In October, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud went to Washington to meet with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The pitch is for Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords.
Other countries appear to be lining up to possibly join the Abraham Accords. These include: The island nation of Comoros, Tunisia, Oman, Qatar, and Malaysia.
Keep in mind, Jared Kushner and his wife Ivanka were in Jerusalem last week as the Abraham Accords caucus was initiated in the Israeli Knesset.
Foreign Minister Yair Lapid was at the event and made the following statement.
“We renewed relations with Egypt, we opened embassies, we improved our relations with the US. I call upon the Palestinians, and every Arab nation that is listening: We seek peace. Peace is not a compromise or a weakness but rather an embodiment of the human spirit. Those living in the Middle East are welcome to look around and see which countries are in a better position — those who seek peace, or those who seek war.”
Jerusalem, June 13, 2021: For the first time in 12 years, a divided Knesset approved a government not run by Benjamin Netanyahu. After some drama earlier in the day with Arab Ra’am party leader Mansour Abbas, the vote was cast in favor of the “change bloc”. The final vote tally was 60 for and 59 opposed.
Naftali Bennett is the new Prime Minister of Israel. Politically, many think Bennett is very similar to Netanyahu. He is right of center and right of Netanyahu as head of the New Right Party. Bennett is no nonsense and has a take no prisoners attitude when it comes to parties who wish harm to Israel. He does have a history of controversial comments towards factions of the Palestinians and enemies of Israel. Bennett previously served in Israeli special forces units of Sayeret Matkal (known as The Unit) and Maglan (reconnaissance unit). He recently served as the Defense Minister in 2019-2020. Bennett previously served as Netanyahu’s Chief of Staff from 2006-2008. He also founded and sold a technology company Cyota which specialized in e-fraud. -Wikipedia

— Naftali Bennett נפתלי בנט (@naftalibennett) June 13, 2021
For the first time in Israel’s history, an Arab party will have a say in the governance. This is the Ra’am Party headed by Monsour Abbas. He is the power broker of this new government. All eyes are focused on Abbas inside and outside of Israel. Abbas is a dentist by trade. He is opposed to the Abraham Accords. Socially, he is opposed to LGBTQ+ causes and is supportive of conversion therapy. Abbas is set to bring billions to Arab Israeli communities throughout Israel. Shekels are slated for society development, infrastructure, violence and organized crime, and recognition of communities. -Wikipedia
On his way out of power, Benjamin Netanyahu expressed grave concern for the security of Israel. His primary concern is Iran.
“From the moment the US returns to the nuclear deal with Iran, the incoming government won’t approve significant operations in Iran. A government that is not able to forcefully oppose the international community on the pressing issues for our fate is not worthy of leading Israel.” -Benjamin Netanyahu
It would appear the two state solution between the Palestinians and Israel is likely to be back on the table in favor of the Abraham Accords. Time will tell.
This fractured coalition will be tested by foreign adversaries. I suspect not much time will pass. Land for peace is where this is all headed. The question is how soon.
Joel 3:2 I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there on behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; and they have divided up My land..
Leviticus 19:15 You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor.
At literally the last hour, Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid informed Israeli President Reuven Rivlin he has formed an 8 party coalition to establish a government. The coalition has 61 seats in the 120 member Knesset for a majority.
The parties include: Yesh Atid, Blue and White, Yisrael Beytenu, Yamina, New Hope, Labor, Meretz, and Ra’am.
Yair Lapid and Yamina chief Naftali Bennett will alternate as Prime Minister. Bennett will be the first prime minister until September 2023. Then Lapid would serve as the prime minister until November 2025 under the agreement.
All of this was made possible by Ra’am Islamist leader Mansour Abbas. This would be the first time a majority Arab party would be a part of a leading coalition in Israeli government.
Per the Times of Israel, Ra’am was promised NIS 53 billion ($16.3 billion) for Arab society development. In addition, another NIS 2.5 million ($770,000) to fight violence and organized crime in Arab society. Plus, another NIS 20 million ($6 million) will be invested over the next 10 years to fix crumbling infrastructure in Arab cities and towns. Also, three Bedouin unrecognized villages, Abda, Khashm al-Zena, and Rakhma, are set to be legalized in a government decision.
This is the leadership agreement.
Yair Lapid, Foreign Minister for the first two years of the government
Blue and White leader Benny Gantz, Defense Minister
Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman, Treasury
New Hope leader Gideon Sa’ar, Justice Minister
Yamina’s Ayelet Shaked, Interior Minister
Labor’s Merav Michaeli, Transportation Portfolio
Labor’s Omer Barlev, Public Security Minister
Meretz leader Nitzan Horowitz, Health Minister
Meretz Tamar Zandberg, Environmental Protection Minister
Meretz Arab Issawi Frej, Regional Cooperation Minister
All of this has to be ratified by a vote in the Knesset in about 12 days. This would set up a vote on approximately June 14th, 2021.
The coalition stated, “We will do everything to unite Israeli society.”
Israeli Knesset Member Yehuda Glick is protesting Prime Minister Netanyahu’s policy regarding the Temple Mount. Currently Israeli lawmakers are banned from ascending the Temple Mount. Netanyahu has promised to lift the ban but has backed off his promise repeatedly. So, Glick has set up an office near the entrance of the Temple Mount.
“The Temple Mount is a place that is open free to everyone – Jews, Christians and Muslims. Only MKs are not allowed up on the mount. It is against the law – illegal and absurd.”
“Enough is enough. I am not going to go through another series of holidays not being able to go on the Temple Mount. The time has come to change this decision.” -Yehuda Glick
In 2014, Yehuda Glick took multiple gun shots from an intended assassin and survived. He is the same rabbi who was the head of the Temple Institute in Jerusalem. He believes Jews should be able to pray on the Temple Mount. Previously, Glick has stated a vision of three faiths (Islam, Christianity and Judaism) sharing the Temple Mount.
See Glick’s comments in the link below from Facebook.
Genesis 12:3 And I will bless those who bless you…
Yehuda Glick headed an Israeli delegation to Washington, D.C. for the inauguration of President Donald Trump. This is the same Yehuda Glick who is a member of the Israeli Knesset. This is the same Yehuda Glick who took multiple gunshots from an intended assassin and survived. He is the same rabbi who was the head of the Temple Institute in Jerusalem. He believes Jews should be able to pray on the Temple Mount. Previously, Glick has stated a vision of three faiths (Islam, Christianity and Judaism) sharing the Temple Mount.
Glick is one of two Jewish lawmakers who attended the inauguration along with West Bank settler leaders.
“I hope to deliver to those people my message, which is that Jerusalem is the city of peace. It is an international city for all people, Jews and non-Jews, and it’s the city of global peace that knows how to bring people together. I come carrying the name of Jerusalem for this cause and I will reiterate it in all of my meetings,” said Glick.
January 24, 2017: Publically the Trump Administration states the US Embassy move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem is in the early stages.
“We’re at the very early stages of that decision-making process,” stated Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary.
Actions are speaking louder than words. It appears the Trump Administration is moving forward with plans to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem.
According to Jerusalem City Councilman and Deputy Mayor Meir Turjemon, “The architect who designs American embassies around the world has already arrived in Israel to examine the conditions in the field.”
The United States Ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, is planning on living and working in Jerusalem. Traditionally, the US Ambassador lives in Herzliya which is north of Tel Aviv on the Mediterranean coast. Friedman’s plans are to arrive in Jerusalem in late February and begin working. He does not care if the US Embassy is moved or not. He is going to work in the capital city of Israel.
