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.

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.
As usual, the rocket exchange between the Palestinians and the Israelis is all about perspective.
The events appear to be initiated by the death of Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s Khader Adnan. He was on a hunger strike for 86 days. Adnan was arrested in Israel on terrorism charges. When it was announced he died, four rockets were launched from Gaza. Israel responded. Then the two sides exchanged volleys.
Isaiah 66:7-8 Before she was in labor she gave birth; before her pain came upon her she delivered a son. Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day?

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi flew to Damascus to meet Syrian President Bashar Assad.
Syria was widely shunned by Arab governments over Assad’s brutal crackdown on protesters and the breakdown in relations culminated with Syria being ousted from the Arab League in 2011. The conflict has since killed nearly half a million people and displaced half of Syria’s pre-war population of 23 million. -Times of Israel
Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad and Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi sign a memorandum of understanding for the comprehensive long-term strategic cooperation plan between the two countries.
Somebody flew a drone into the Kremlin. Nobody is claiming is responsibility. Zelensky in Ukraine is denying responsibility. Russia is stating this is a terrorist attack and an assassination attempt on President Vladimir Putin.

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.

The World Health Organization (WHO) quietly called an emergency meeting regarding an outbreak of Marburg Virus in Equatorial Guinea. Concern is the virus has spread to Ghana.
Marburg is a hemorrhagic virus that is similar to Ebola. Approximately 90% of people who contract Marburg die within 8 days of illness onset.

Russian President Vladimir Putin gave a big speech this week marking the one year anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine.
Problem… Hackers disrupted the televised event and the public had blank TV screens across Russia’s 11 time zones.
We will not be providing a recap of the speech. This event was an eternity close to 2 hours. For those who are interested in reading the details, click on the link below.
Of note, Putin indicated Russia will no longer participate in the START Nuclear Treaty.
“They want to inflict a strategic defeat on us and claim our nuclear facilities. In this regard, I am forced to state that Russia is suspending its participation in the strategic offensive arms treaty,” Vladimir Putin.
CNN is reporting Russia had a failed missile test while U.S. President Joe Biden was in Ukraine. The SARMAT or Satan II missile has the ability to deliver multiple nuclear weapons. The missile has a range of 6,835 miles with a 100 ton weapon(s).
Test results have offered mixed reviews, allegedly. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.

On This Week in Prophecy… After 130 plus aftershocks and counting, two devastating earthquakes of 7.5 and 7.8 magnitude, the Ataturk Dam on the Euphrates River has multiple cracks. Experts have expressed concern and warning.
According to Athens News out of Greece, “there are many cracks in the dam after strong earthquakes.”
Turkish Professor of Seismology Dr. Nasi Göryur, “I appeal to stakeholders: check the dams in the region.“
As of this post, there have been over 7,900 deaths along tens of thousands of injuries. Injuries in Turkey alone are approaching 35,000. Preliminary estimates have these numbers increasing dramatically as time passes due to weather and availability of rescue efforts.
Thousands of buildings have collapsed and continue to collapse with subsequent aftershocks.
Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov announced Iran will be involved in the peace process between Syria and Turkey.
“Both Russia, Iran and Turkey are part of the Astana trio, which is engaged in the Syrian settlement. Therefore, I consider it absolutely logical that additional contacts dedicated to promoting the normalization of Turkish-Syrian relations should be accompanied by Russia and Iran.“
The Jerusalem Post recently quoted the Wall Street Journal. Russia and Iran have decided to construct an Iranian drone manufacturing plant in Russia. Iran recently had a drone plant destroyed due to surgical Israeli drone strikes, allegedly…
Production is scheduled to begin in months. This apparently was agreed up in November 2022. But due to recent events, the timeline has been escalated. It is estimated 6,000 drones could be made for Russia for involvement in Ukraine.
Luke 21:11a There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences.-Jesus
This is a breaking and developing story.
February 6, 2023: A 7.8 earthquake has hit south central Turkey near Gaziantep. Multiple aftershocks as large as 6.7 have occurred. The main event hit at 4:30 a.m. local time while many were sleeping. The location is just north of the Syria border, due north of Damascus. The quake was felt in Syria, Israel, Cyprus, Greece, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Georgia, and Armenia.
The event lasted longer than 1 minute, 36 seconds.
Casualties and injuries are likely to be catastrophic with hundreds of buildings collapsing.
Due to the Earthquake a Gas Pipeline near the City of Kahramanmaraş in Southern Turkey has reportedly Exploded and is burning out of control with Emergency Services completely overwhelmed with Rescue Operations. pic.twitter.com/FnvZ3i1hEp
Ezekiel 38:19-20 In My zeal and fiery rage I proclaim that on that day there will be a great earthquake in the land of Israel. The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beasts of the field, every creature that crawls upon the ground, and all mankind on the face of the earth will tremble at My presence. The mountains will be thrown down, the cliffs will collapse, and every wall will fall to the ground.
The prophet Ezekiel indicates the day is coming when there will be an earthquake so great, the mountains will cease to exist.
Brace yourself. During the End Times scenario, bigger quakes will happen.
On This Week in Prophecy: Over the weekend, Iran has been under a coordinated attack. According to various outlets, Israel and the United States are suspected.
To sum up an eventful evening in #Iran, some mysterious incidents at: 1⃣ Esfahan in a MODAFL facility (confirmed) 2⃣ Azarshahr in East Azerbaijan Province (massive fire) 3⃣ Karaj and Tehran (footage circulating, unclear) 4⃣ Hamedan & Dezful (unconfirmed)https://t.co/GuNvd0gk5p
According to some reports, the air defenses of Iran's traditional army and the IRGC have been put on high alert amid a horrible fire in a factory near Tabriz (the video below) and unconfirmed reports of explosions and fires in Karaj, Tehran and Hamadan.https://t.co/WxKcN5ZtnApic.twitter.com/GSHmTkcKqS
NEW: The strike on Iran's MoD facility in Isfahan was “specific, surgical & successful”, sources with direct knowledge told me. They added the facility was connected to Iran’s missile program: “4 different areas in the building were accurately targeted & the goal was achieved"
NEW: Israeli aircraft have attacked a convoy of 25 trucks that crossed the border from Iraq to Syria through a crossing controlled by Hezbollah, according to Saudi media reports
Russia is likely to turn to Turkey for drones as their supply from Iran appears to be interrupted. These events appear to only harden the relationship between Russia and Israel.
Quakes in various places… Amidst the back drop of the explosions across Iran, a large earthquake in northwest Iran caused significant damage in both Iran and Turkey.
Iran and Russia strengthen economic ties by connecting their electronic banking systems. Both countries are looking to bypass western economic sanctions.

On This Week in Prophecy… We have an operational update on the happenings in Ukraine. Russia is struggling to make gains. Ukraine continues to push the Russians out of their country. Russia has devastated utility services within Ukraine. Missile strikes have rendered the majority of the country without electricity. Basic provisions such as heat and water are being hit hard. Winter is beginning to set in…
Ezekiel 38:3-6 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. Persia, Cush, and Put are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer and all his hordes; Beth-togarmah from the uttermost parts of the north with all his hordes—many peoples are with you.
Turkey and Iran have discovered something they both have in common. They both have declared war on “terrorists” as they see it, the Kurds.
Turkey wants to be an energy hub partnering with Moscow, and Iran is selling drones to Moscow. Economics ties Turkey and Iran to Moscow. In this respect, they have a common policy, but not necessarily a policy that is solely anti-Kurdish. The end result is that Kurds are victims and pay the price for the Ankara-Tehran partnership.
Nahum 1:5 Mountains quake because of Him and the hills dissolve; indeed the earth is upheaved by His presence, the world and all the inhabitants in it.

After a 38 year snooze, the world’s largest active volcano, Mauna Loa, has come to life in Hawaii. Fear not, the experts state there is nothing to worry about…
Area: 2,035 mi². Mauna Loa is 13,680 feet above sea level and more than 56,000 feet from its peak to its underwater base, according to USGS. Its volume is estimated to be some 18,000 cubic miles. -Google
Some locals have indicated they are watching a sacred, religious event. Altars have been constructed and sacrifices are being made near Mauna Loa.

The Dutch government is looking to purchase 3,000 farms and industrial polluters. Farmers are in the crosshairs for environmental violations. The crime, ammonia and nitrogen oxide emissions exceed EU law.
“For agricultural entrepreneurs, there will be a stopping scheme that will be as attractive as possible. For industrial peak polluters, we will get to work with a tailor-made approach and in tightening permits. After a year, we will see if this has achieved enough.” -Christianne van der Wal, Nitrogen Minister
So why is this a big deal? Netherlands is the second largest food exporter in the world behind the United States. Agriculture is over a 100 billion Euro business.
A friendly reminder, the composition of our atmosphere and the air we breathe is roughly 79% Nitrogen.
Revelation 13:16-17 And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, the name of the beast or the number of its name.

Countries around the world are looking to link digital currencies with identification. Turkey is already on board.
Revelation 13:16-18 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. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.

Daniel 2:40-43 And there shall be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, because iron breaks to pieces and shatters all things. And like iron that crushes, it shall break and crush all these. And as you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom, but some of the firmness of iron shall be in it, just as you saw iron mixed with the soft clay. And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly brittle. As you saw the iron mixed with soft clay, so they will mix with one another in marriage, but they will not hold together, just as iron does not mix with clay.

Lastly, Rosh Hashanah or Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah is a upon us. What does this mean to us? The search is on for the sliver of the new moon outside of Jerusalem.
“Rest“… The word is “shamat” in the Hebrew. It is defined by Strong’s Concordance as: to release, let drop or loose or rest or fall.
The Jewish people also refer to this as “shemitah”. It literally means to release.
Deuteronomy 15:1-2 At the end of every seven years you shall grant a remission of debts. This is the manner of remission: every creditor shall release what he has loaned to his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor and his brother, because the LORD’S remission has been proclaimed.
“remission of debts…” In the original Hebrew text “of debts” is not present. “of debts” was added by the translators. Shemitah is the Hebrew word for remission. Shemitah as defined by Strong’s Concordance means: cancellation of debts, letting drop of exactions, (temporary) remitting, release (from debt).
Shemitah comes from the root word shamat.
For multiple posts regarding teachings on the Shemitah, click on the link below.
Debt will be released on either Monday, September 26th or Tuesday, September 27th pending the sighting of the new moon. Historically, challenging economic circumstances arise.
