Israeli War - Dividing the Land

The Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel on Saturday 7 October, just as Sukkot was finishing, is just another clog in the end-time wheel. It is believed that the covert mission was perhaps backed by Russia, another formidable enemy of the state of Israel. Depending on how long this war will escalate to (which looks like it will, as threats are coming from the north side, near Lebanon too), could indicate that the USA will try to intervene to bring about stability and peace in the region. The Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, announced that Israel does not stand alone, and that they would always support Israel. As has the President himself, but he has also suggested some form of compromise on Israel’s part, in considering a two-state solution. If the Biden administration in any way attempts to “divide the land of Israel,” by handing over territory; this could turn out completely disastrous, not for Israel, but for the USA! Which, by the way, has already been prophesied in the Bible (Joel 3:2). Could this conflict be the Psalm 83 war (see Bill Salus’s book “Psalm 83 The Missing Prophecy Revealed”)?

Let me give an excerpt from Asteroid Impact 3rd Edition from P180, under the subtitle the Destruction of Babylon (USA)…

“But another main reason is that they (USA) will betray Israel and try to divide their land, in an attempt to bring stability in the region (Joel 3:2; Hab. 3:13; Zeph. 3:19; Zech. 2:8; Jer. 51:24, 35, 49, 52; Gen. 12:3). Which God will not allow as He made a solemn and eternal covenant with Abraham (Gen. 15:18; Ps. 105:8-11). This will greatly kindle God’s anger against them (USA). It will be the tipping point, when the “cup of wrath” is full.

In Revelation 19:2 it says this judgment is from God and that it is just and upright. That is an incredible statement if you think about it, considering His magnanimous nature and how longsuffering, patient, slow to anger, merciful, kind, compassionate, loving and forgiving He is (Ps. 145:8). Which means their wickedness must go far deeper and far beyond what we are able to conceive, imagine or understand?”

Well, all we can do now is to wait, watch and see what happens next. But it is unquestionable that we are witnessing end-time prophecies being fulfilled right before our eyes. As Christians, and “watchers,” we have already seen the preview, and can know what to expect next! Once these events begin to happen, it will be like a ripple effect or like a domino effect, one after the other, almost simultaneously (P159).

To find out more, please don’t delay in getting your enthralling copy of Asteroid Impact the 3rd Edition. S.J.

I Don't Care Attitude

The “I Don’t Care Attitude” shows that a person is exhibiting a lack of empathy. A very serious and dangerous warning sign for that person. It reveals a hardened heart, a heart that can no longer give or receive, that is completely shut off. But this also means it is shut off and unresponsive to God. An extremely dangerous place to be in, as no longer will you be able to learn, grow and develop as a person. Nor will you be able to hear Godly instructions and directions for your life, some of which could save you from making even deadly decisions, that have long lasting consequences, not only for you, but for your family as well. Godly wisdom and direction can save us from many harmful incidences in our lives. God’s blessings only flow when we follow His footsteps and choose to go in His path (Deut. 30:15-20; Prov. 14:12). It also means we will not be able to hear God’s warnings, when trouble or enemy’s attacks loom ahead, and could save us from disaster (Ps. 91:3).

But the most dangerous aspect of a hardened heart, threatens the very existence of our soul. We can choose to wilfully disobey, every time we do this our heart becomes a little bit harder. This is what the Bible calls a seared conscience (I Tim. 4:2). A conscience is another way God can speak to us, to warn us of danger when we do something wrong. Our guilty conscience will then, through guilt, hopefully persuade us to put the wrong thing right. You see, the “wrong thing” or sin will open a door into our lives for the enemy to attack us, through danger, calamity, trouble, sickness, poverty, despair etc. But if we choose to continue to ignore our conscience, it will eventually no longer speak to us or warn us. It has become seared and completely hardened. Unfortunately, if you persist in doing this, you will reach a point of no return, a line once crossed, you cannot go back. That is why there are those that can commit ruthless, unspeakable acts of violence and have absolutely no remorse or regret whatsoever. They have crossed that line and there is NO hope for them. Their soul is lost forever!

Don’t be like that, be quick to repent and ask for God’s forgiveness…

When I was growing up, my mother had a humorous ode, which she would force us to repeat every time we said those insidious words, “I Don’t Care.” Consequently I learnt very quickly to bite my tongue every time I wanted to spill them out, except in my thoughts of course haha…

I don’t care was made to care

I don’t care was hung…

I don’t care was put in a pot

and cooked until he was done…

So now every time I hear those words come out of my mouth, or even in my thoughts, I stop to take a check of myself. Where have I gone wrong, what bad attitude have I adopted, what critical thought have I had? Then I humbly ask God to forgive me and help me to change and soften my hardened heart. In fact, even to give me ways to act in the opposite spirit, to show me what acts of kindness I can do, and what consideration I can show to others! S.J.

Yom Kippur - The Day of Atonement

We are in the season of the Fall Feasts, having just celebrated Rosh Hashanah and the Feast of Trumpets. The next is Yom Kippur – The Day of Atonement, on Tishri 10, which will be on 25 September.

The three feasts that are appointed by God are very important and significant, as they are a celebration of each One of the Trinity. We are told not to come before Him empty handed (Deut. 16:16) during these significant appointments with God, as each season covers different areas of our lives. For example the sacrificial offering we bring at Passover will cover our protection for the rest of the year. Pentecost offering protects our finances and gives us the power to gain wealth (Deut. 8:18; Mal. 3:11).

And the Atonement offering will cover our health, healing and restoration, for the whole year! Can you imagine how important this is? Imagine living in perfect health with no sickness or disease and NO huge medical bills? Is that even possible? YES it is, if we are obedient in bringing a sacrificial offering during this time. And even if you are suffering an illness or injuries (even terminal) and are believing God for a miracle, THIS IS THE SEASON for it! Of course if we have any bad lifestyle habits, we will need to change those too!

May God bless you abundantly with good health, protection and financial breakthroughs throughout the coming year, as you bring your offerings during these appointed times!

Rosh Hashanah - Feast of Trumpets - And the Rapture

All seven of the Jewish feasts are foreshadows of future events. The first three (Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, Feast of First Fruits) were fulfilled in Christ’s first coming. Pentecost is what we are in now and is also a foreshadow of the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit (the latter rain), that will soon be poured out. Then the last three feasts in the fall (Sept/Oct) of Trumpets, Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles, are a foreshadow of the Rapture, the second coming of Christ, and the 1000-year Millennial reign of Christ on earth, which are still to be fulfilled.

When God told Noah to build the ark, because a great flood was coming, Noah tried to warn people for a hundred years, but no-one, no not one would listen – in fact they mocked and sneered at him. God would not warn people if there was NO hope. He warns them so they have time to prepare, as preparation can mean the difference between life and death. It is not to paralyze us with fear, but rather to motivate us into action. Noah’s preparation was the ark – it was the means by which they would be safe, during this time of judgment. We too have an ark, the “Ark of Salvation," where we can be safe if we are found “in Christ". Those that are “in Christ" will be kept safe (protection, provision, health) and free from fear because their trust is in Him.

Because of man’s impenetrable stubbornness, we cannot stop the judgment of God that is coming. The only thing we can do is to lay our lives before Him in surrender and put our trust in Him, to keep us through the difficulties that lie ahead. And even though it seems to be a complete waste of time, we are still instructed to warn others (Ezek. 3:17-18), that they too may come into the “Ark of Salvation," before it is too late! Remember, once the door of the ark is closed (at the Rapture, when the fullness of the Gentiles has come in) no more Gentiles will be allowed in.

So time is short, warn others, even if you are mocked, like Noah; and spend time in preparation, wait on God for instructions and directions for you and your family. Then obey Him and do whatever He tells you to do! May the God of peace keep you and bless you and equip you! And remember to look up, for your redemption draws nigh (Luke 21:28). See YouTube video

More On The Antichrist

Thank you Tyler for such an interesting program! Can I respectfully add a few thoughts? I agree with you that the Rapture will happen before the Dan. 9:27 covenant, and that the church will not be here to see its signing! And I believe BOTH will be in the month of Tishri (our Sept/Oct – the Rapture possibly 57 days before?). But the church will be able to identify the antichrist before this event, from the first white horse in Rev. 6:2. He is a ruler (leader) wearing a crown (king – i.e. president, who has ruled before Rev. 17:11 TLB). And carrying a bow (taking territory), figuratively riding on the white horse! A former president will come back on the scene and will take territory, during the midst of chaos and economic collapse!

He is then revealed again at the signing of this peace treaty, but the Jews will at first, see him as their “saviour” (because he has brought peace to the region), and will not recognize him, until mid-trib. At mid-trib he will cease their sacrifices (at Passover), in the third Jewish temple, places the abomination that makes desolate (an image of himself) in the Holy of Holies, declaring he is God, and demands that everyone must worship him or die! It is at this point the Jews will recognize him for who he really is (third revealing)! He will also break the very same peace treaty, he himself confirmed, and attacks and tries to annihilate Israel.

I believe we still have to see a few things before all this happens, but once it starts it will happen like a domino effect, one after the other and all very quickly! In my book Asteroid Impact Second Edition I include a Tribulation timeline chart, with the Rapture possibly one year before the signing of this treaty. As BOTH these events will happen in TISHRI, the Rapture on the Feast of Trumpets (the last trump 1 Cor. 15:52), and the confirming and signing of a seven-year peace treaty one year later (or only 57 days later)?

The antichrist will first arise after a catastrophic event, when he will take territory (the white horse – and he is a king [or president] who has ruled before Rev. 17:11 TLB), but will only rule the whole world from mid-trib.

As to your question about the antichrist being a homosexual…this is taken from Dan. 11:37, “He shall regard neither the God of his father’s nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all.” NKJV

But the amplified version explains it more fully, “He shall not regard the gods of his fathers or Him [to Whom] women desire [to give birth – the Messiah] or any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all.” AMP

The “desire of women,” in this case, was to be the chosen one to give birth to the Messiah. So I believe he will be a married man, but because every intent of his heart is evil, it is very possible that he will be given over to every sort of evil and perversion and will not oppose any such perversions (Isa. 5:20).

In this verse, I also saw something else. It tells me he’s not a Jew! “He shall not regard the gods of his fathers [his father’s religion, possibly being Islam?] or Him [to Whom] women desire…” (i.e. the Jewish Messiah). Many Bible scholars teach that he will be Jewish! This is not so! Rev. 13:2 (and the beast in Dan. 7:3-8), clearly reveals who he is, what his religion is and where he is from! (see the charts on P138 of The Four Great Beasts).

There are at least three distinct things by which we can identify him by:-

1/ He has his roots in the Middle East (possibly Syria) and has the religion of the Middle East! He may not be living there but his ancestors come from there (body of a leopard).

2/ He will have the backing (alliance) of Russia (in the beginning – later Russia [king of north] will actually attack him – second betrayal) (feet of a bear).

3/ He is a ruler or leader, that has ruled before in the USA (mouth of a lion - lion here represents a superpower)! Wow that is a controversial point, as most Bible scholars will teach that he will come out of Europe and the EU (Revised Roman Empire - because of Rev. 17). But it is the False Prophet that comes out of the EU, in fact from Rome! Tom Horn believes the False Prophet is the current Pope Francis? Later the two will be closely associated with each other, and the False Prophet hands over his very large dominion over to the antichrist (Rev. 13:4). They will both be able to perform supernatural signs and lying wonders… “attended by great power and with all sorts of [pretended] miracles and signs and delusive marvels – [all of them] lying wonders.” (II Thess. 2:9; Rev. 13:13-14).

When I first did this study of The Four Great Beasts of Dan. 7:3-7 and Rev. 13:2, and seeing what the symbols represented, I was shocked when the last one surprisingly revealed the USA (like a lion with eagle’s wings and mouth of a lion - see chart above), as this is not what has been taught. I even asked a friend if I had the audacity to even include that in the book. At that time, the president was Barack Obama. It is very interesting, when you see this video clip of Jack Hibbs, use Obama as an example (he is NOT saying it is him) of, “He originally rises out of obscurity and insignificance, and seemingly comes from nowhere, in a short space of time; the ‘little horn’ (Dan. 7:8). A little, insignificant politician, who skyrockets out of nowhere onto the scene and takes authority over others.” An incredible coincidence, or is it? When this “ruler or leader, that has ruled before,” comes BACK onto the world’s stage, for me, that will be confirmation of who the antichrist is!

Another intriguing coincidence, or is it, is the fact that former President Obama was America’s 44th president. Four is the biblical number for the earth and continents – kingdoms, nations, empires, dominion; and two fours, represent the whole earth and all nations!

Dan. 7:8 describes this “little horn” as having eyes of a man and a mouth speaking great things. To me, the eyes represent “Big Brother,” or AI which will be able to monitor and keep track of every single human being on earth, with ease and precision, using modern day technology, which is presently available and advancing (it’s interesting to note that former President Obama was the one to initiate this)! Then the mouth represents someone who has the gift of speech and mass hysteria, like Hitler had, being able to influence and manipulate the masses into following him (Rev.13:5). Of course we know that there are other forces that are already in play and are in the experimental stage. Through medical science and technology, and the changing of our DNA, in the hope of being able to control people, so that they will willingly comply and obey!

The antichrist is also known as the “Wilful king” (Dan. 11:36), and will do whatever he wants to do, having absolutely no regard for the advice or counsel of men. He arrogantly exalts himself above all others, having a confidence which is pride personified! In mid-trib he even proclaims that he himself is God, and that everyone must bow down and worship him and his image or be put to death (II Thess. 2:4; Rev. 13:12; 15).

He is a king of fierce countenance (Dan. 8:23), having a formidable, intimidating, intense glare, causing one to cower away servilely. He is able to understand and decipher insignias and mysteries but through satanic influence, which will leave many people in awe and wonder of him.

One of the main signs of who the antichrist is, is the man who orchestrates and confirms the signing of a seven-year peace treaty in the Middle East (second revealing). This also marks the beginning of the seven-year Tribulation period (Daniel’s 70th week – Dan. 9:24-27). Some are saying that the Rapture and the Tribulation will happen this year in 2023! Like I said previously, I believe we still have to see a few more things first, like the six seals and the four horsemen of the apocalypse! BUT it is VERY close at hand! A teaching on “The Third Day” (see charts on P169) could reveal that the Tribulation period will start in 2026? And I believe the Rapture one year prior on Tishri 1 or 2, 2025, or Tishri 1 or 2, 2026?

Another point, which the church will not see, is the antichrist will also fake his own resurrection, trying to mimic Christ’s resurrection. He will supposedly “come back to life”, after an assassination attempt. He is attacked with a small sword in his arm, and his right eye is blinded (Zech. 11:17). But it is a mock resurrection. I have a very interesting and controversial point on this in the book! I believe this will happen around mid-trib as Zech. 11:17 calls him the Idle or Worthless Shepherd who deserts the flock (Israel – when he breaks the peace treaty). It is at this spurious resurrection that he will be transmogrified into the living reincarnation of Satan and will be totally possessed by him!

Lastly I want to give an example of how we can apply all of this. Just recently I heard someone say that King Charles is the antichrist. Well, let us look at the above criteria and see if he fits any of them. He definitely has NO Syrian roots as he comes from a long line of British royalty. He is certainly NOT Muslim. I doubt very much if he would have Putin’s support or backing? He is not from USA and he has not ruled before (he has only just become king). So no, he does not fit even one of the criteria. And no, neither does Donald Trump fulfil all of them. The antichrist will fulfil ALL of the above criteria, just like Jesus fulfilled ALL of His!

Anyway I hope you have found this interesting and informative, and will be able to equip you against the myriad of deception that is out there? Many Christians will be utterly distraught when they discover that the Rapture will not happen before some catastrophic events. But do not lose heart, as God is in control, and He will supernaturally provide, protect and heal. The greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit will be during this time, with the unprecedented glory of God around His people. Hold on and NEVER give up, as “your redemption draws nigh” (Luke 21:8) and remember “he who endures to the end shall be saved” (Matt. 10:22).

The Three Feasts

The Three Feasts, which are very important to God (feast means God’s appointed times, known as moadim), are actually a celebration and honouring of each One of the Trinity.

The first of the Three Feasts is Passover - Pesach, and the feast of Unleavened Bread, and is celebrated for eight days, from Nisan 15-22 (this year was 5-13 April 2023). It is when we celebrate our Easter, to remember the sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross, when He became our Passover Lamb. It is the season that both the Father and the Son sowed an extremely costly and sacrificial seed! The Father gave His one and only Son; and Jesus gave up His royal throne and kingdom (whilst on earth) and then later His life, to redeem man from the curse of sin and death. Therefore Passover is the most fertile season to sow in, because it is the “first” of the three “first fruit” offerings. It is also the only feast that God allows an extra thirty days in which to sow your seed (Num. 9:10-14). The very first Passover, during the Exodus from Egypt, was a judgment upon the world system, Egypt being a superpower at that time. The judgments of the ten plagues were to force them to release and free God’s people from the bondages of the world. AND it was used to pry the wealth of the wicked out of their hands, to be given to the righteous (the Great Wealth Transfer) (see Passover – Pesach). The seed or offering that we sow during Passover is connected to our divine protection (Ps. 91).

The second feast is Pentecost - Shavuot, which is being celebrated today, Sivan 6 (25 May 2023). It is fifty days after Passover. “Pentecost simply means fifty, or ‘the fiftieth day.’” It also means an “open hand!” It is believed that around fifty days after the first Passover (during the Exodus) the first “Shavuot coincided with…God giving His Torah to Moses on Mt. Sinai. So Judaism was birthed with the giving of the Law, and Christianity with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, on the day of Pentecost; both started on the same day.”1 Pentecost is a “first fruit” offering celebrating a bountiful harvest. It is also a type or shadow of the Jubilee, with the lavish outpouring of blessings. It symbolizes the abundant outpouring of the Holy Spirit – the former rain. The first manifestations of Joel 2:23, 28, 29 being in Acts 2, when thousands were converted. Then the latter rain, an even greater outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the “last days,” with an immense harvest. It could even be next year's Pentecost when this will happen? An incredible, exciting time of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit which will also include miracles of healing (even for non-believers) and restoration. Spontaneous deliverances from addictions! Unprecedented signs and wonders will be commonplace, and God is going to demonstrate His power and glory in spectacular ways. We will see supernatural miracles of divine provision, divine protection and divine health. In all of human history nothing else can compare to the glory of this period! And it will bring in the greatest revival and awakening and harvest of souls, we have ever seen. I believe it will also be the time of the Great Wealth Transfer too.

The third of the three feasts are called the “Fall Feasts,” and happen in the holiest month of the Hebrew calendar, in the month of Tishri (our Sept/Oct). it consists of three feasts, starting with the Feast of Trumpets, which is also known as Yom Ha Din, or “the Day of Judgment”. A hundred trumpet blasts are sounded throughout the land. It is also the Jewish New Year, Tishri 1, Rosh Hashanah. Then the tenth day is Yom Kippur, “the Day of Atonement,” which was when the High Priest would make atonement (by the sprinkling of blood on the mercy seat seven times) for the whole nation, for the whole year. Feast of Tabernacles or Booths – Sukkot starts on the fifteenth day for seven days, where they camped out in tents or booths. It is a reminder that we are just pilgrims here for a very short time and that this is not our permanent home. The seeds sown during this season are connected to our health, healing and restoration (Rom. 8:11).

The three feasts are prophetic shadows and types of what is to come!

Passover was a shadow of Christ’s first coming and its theme is Redemption – to redeem man from the curse of sin and death. It is a time of forgiveness and freedom from bondage to sin and the world. I believe it will also be in the same season when another judgment will come upon the world (to cleanse and purify and set God’s people free from the world). History is cyclical and will repeat itself. But even through this horrendous time of judgment upon the world, God’s people will be safe in the ark of salvation, just as the Israelites were safe in Goshen!

Pentecost will follow shortly after this judgment and will be an awe-inspiring time of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and of Revival.

The Fall Feasts are very prophetic as the month of Tishri is key to pivotal events surrounding Christ’s second coming, and its theme is Restoration. Rosh Hashanah and the Feast of Trumpets is a shadow of the Rapture, when the “last trump” will be sounded (I Cor.15:52). Yom Kippur is a shadow of the second coming. Jesus will return, possibly on that very day. And Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles, when God tabernacles with man (Matt.1:23), is a shadow of the marriage feast of the Lamb, which is celebrated for seven days.2 Some have suggested that the marriage feast will last for the whole seven years of the Tribulation period? Pastor Perry Stone believes it is for one year, the last year of the Tribulation period?

Well here comes the controversial part, as I have some other ideas about this! Yes Feast of Trumpets is definitely the Rapture and we will know the month (Tishri) and the year (possibly 2025?), only the day and the hour will be unknown. The day will be unknown because the Feast of Trumpets is actually over three days. It starts on the eve of Elul 29, Tishri 1 and 2. And Yom Kippur will be Christ’s second coming, when He returns at the battle of Armageddon, at the end of the Tribulation, to save Israel with the sword of His mouth. He utterly destroys the evil works of the final eighth kingdom (N.W.O.). The antichrist and false prophet are thrown into the lake of fire (Rev. 19:20). But for me, Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles, is a picture and shadow of the New Millennium, when Christ dwells with man and rules on earth for a thousand years. It is also after Yom Kippur (after Christ’s return, not before). And from Isaiah 25:6 it talks about another feast at His coronation festival inaugurating the reign of the Lord on earth. Could this be the marriage feast, or is it another feast for the Jews who have come out of the Tribulation Period?

Lastly, I want to reiterate that we are instructed to bring a sacrificial offering during these three feasts, and special appointments with the Lord. Tithing, which is 10% of your gross income, is a compulsory commandment for every believer, for a blessed and protected life. It is the very fundamental base and foundation of all giving. There are other levels of giving that follow after tithing and these are known as offerings or free will offerings or first fruit offerings.

Offerings unlike the tithe do not have to go to your local church, you can sow in any fertile soil, in any ministry, where the Holy Spirit leads you to. They are not compulsory or at a set amount but are up to the individual and of course the Lord’s leading or prompting. Having said that though the scriptures do say that we must not appear before Him empty handed at these three feasts (Exod. 23:15; 34:20; Deut. 16:16). But because these three feasts are the most fertile seasons of the year for sowing it would be foolish not to take advantage of them. A farmer understands that certain crops when planted in the right season (i.e. you do not plant winter crops in the summer months) will excel and produce abundant harvests. So please do take advantage of this season to sow an offering and sacrificial seed.

Pastor Larry Huch teaches that Pentecost is connected to prosperity, because it is the Holy Spirit that gives us “power” through wisdom and knowledge, to gain wealth (Deut. 8:18). So when we come before the Lord with an open hand, He then opens His hand and the windows of heaven, and we will then be shown (the lightening in the cloud Zech. 10:1 – revelation and insight) the pathway and the “how to” do things, which will lead to abundant financial breakthroughs! Giving releases divine direction and the ability to pursue that direction. Remember, its not the amount that counts, as God looks on the heart. It is the sacrifice and obedience that is important to Him. But if your seed does not move you, it certainly will not move God! God bless you abundantly with financial breakthroughs as you humbly obey Him in this important season!

Passover - Pesach

PASSOVER STARTS 5 APRIL TO 13 APRIL 2023
The first Passover happened in the Exodus, and the ten plagues of Egypt. The Israelites were protected from all the ten plagues of Egypt (except the first three Exod. 8:22). In the area of Goshen, where they lived (which was a “type” of Noah’s ark), they were completely safe and none of the plagues affected them. Only the Egyptians (which is a “type” of the “world”) were afflicted! It was a judgment on the ungodly and world system. Its purpose was to force the Egyptians to release and free God’s people from bondage to the “world” (freedom from sin and idolatry; a refining and purifying them). And it was used to pry the wealth of the wicked out of their hands, to the righteous (the Great Wealth Transfer). So it will be for God’s children, in this judgment that is coming!

Having said that, the last plague would have come upon them, had they not obeyed the instructions they were given, to apply the blood of the Passover lamb on their doorposts. On the fourteenth day of Nisan’s eve (Exod.12:6) each family killed a spotless lamb and applied the blood on the doorposts of their house. God had told them, “When I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague shall be upon you to destroy you when I smite the land of Egypt” (Exod. 12:13). So too, it will be for us, if we have the blood of our Passover lamb, Jesus, protecting us! But it is important to note, that it was their offering (seed) and the blood that protected them! What sacrificial offering will you bring, in this Passover season, that will protect you and your family, in the day of trouble (Eccl. 11:1-6)?

Remember Egypt is a “type” of the world and the worldly system, with all its gods and idolatry. So, could it also be in the Passover season (this year Pesach or Passover starts on 5 April 2023), when God brings judgment on the world again? It is interesting to note, that the ninth plague was three days of darkness (Exod. 10:21-23). This time it will be the three days of darkness that will bring on the “black plague” (a type of the tenth plague), causing millions to die over a very short space of time!

The Israelites asked the Egyptians for all their gold and riches after the ninth plague but took it from them after the tenth plague (Exod. 11:2; 12:36). The Egyptians were very eager to do whatever they asked, for fear of any further retribution! After the destruction and chaos of the judgment that is coming, the “Great Wealth Transfer” from the unrighteous to the righteous will occur! Its purpose is to fund the preaching of the gospel and for the end-time harvest. God will put “billions” into the hands of those He can trust!

Every time in scripture when this has happened before, God has always used a famine, a recession or some extreme hardship or difficulty (in Moses’ case He used the ten plagues) to bring this about. Satan controls most of the world’s wealth, and the only way to pry it out of his hands is through some extreme pressure. God will shake loose the wealth out of the hands of the wicked (Hag. 2:6-9).

Because of my analytical thinking, I have been trying to find a timeline for this since 2015! And when I discovered that the coronavirus could be the first precursor to the following judgments (see Hab.3:5: Habakkuk Chapter 3), I realized it was soon! Because Jesus said that the end-times would be the same as in the days of Noah, I made a statement, in my book Asteroid Impact, that is very interesting, “Could it also be in the same time frame or season that the great flood of Noah’s day occurred, on the seventeenth day of the second month (Gen. 7:11)?" Gen. 7:11 tells us the exact day that the great flood started, but because there are two different Jewish calendars, a sacred calendar and a civil calendar, this caused me some confusion! It could be either Cheshvan (our Oct/Nov) which is the present-day calendar or Iyar (our April/May) which is the sacred calendar. It is more logical though that it is Iyar, the sacred calendar, which is what was used in biblical times! In 2023, 17 Iyar falls on 8 May 2023. And in 2024, it's on 26th May 2024.

Pastor Perry Stone, when teaching about Noah’s day, says that for ten generations (since Adam), they knew about the great flood. Their last and final warning was when Methuselah died; as his name means: “when he dies it will come.” He died at the age of 969 years (Gen. 5:27). They were then given seven days to mourn his death, before the flood started. So my question is, “Who is our present day, “type” of Methuselah?” A very prominent figure has just died, Queen Elizabeth, on the 8 September 2022. She was 96 years old and died in the 9th month (96-9). It is interesting to note that exactly 19 months later the Great American Total Solar Eclipse will happen across America on 8th April 2024 (another significant sign). All speculative, of course, but fascinating, don’t you think? What is certain though, is that it is very close at hand, and the clock is about to strike at midnight! Are you safe in the ark of salvation, just as the Israelites where safe in Goshen? (see Ark of Salvation and Salvation Prayer)

TOO LITTLE - TOO LATE!

When someone has been wronged or mistreated unfairly, it causes a “ripple affect”. The person being mistreated will suffer, AND so will the perpetrator (in time, see Gen. 8:22 seed – time – harvest)! Because the laws of sowing and reaping apply to every person, whether good or evil, young or old! So, not only does the wrongdoer reap what he has sown (it will come back to him; in time) but there is also a type of “fine,” or judgment that he will have to pay for his sin. Especially if that person refuses to repent or admit his wrongdoing or refuses to make compensation to the one he has wronged!

The judgment will come in many different forms, it could be trouble, calamity, sickness, harm, loss, and even anxiety and depression etc. The gravity of judgment will also depend on the severity of the sin! For example, murder – how would you requite for that loss? In Biblical times, that repayment was made with your own life! Slander, in God’s eyes, is also a type of murder (character assassination) and will also have some very serious consequences and judgments, which if not recompensated for, could have generational repercussions! Adultery is also a type of murder! It is the “death” of a relationship and of the family unit, it too will most definitely have generational consequences, so too will abortion! Where theft is concerned, recompense is forced out of the thief’s hands, as you cannot “keep” what is stolen. It will either be lost or stolen again! The list could go on…

So, I want to make a statement here, that inspired this whole exposition; “Compensation can appease the judgment you are facing, along with repentance!” Even our own laws allow for those wronged to be compensated! Often, once a person is bombarded by all these judgments, they realise there is something wrong, and will try to recompensate the person they have wronged! But my question is, is it TOO LITTLE – TOO LATE?

This same statement was made in “Overturning Roe vs Wade” and is referring to the judgments that will come upon America, as a nation, because of over 63 million abortions! Yes, they have overturned “Roe vs Wade,” making it illegal for abortions now, BUT is it TOO LITTLE – TOO LATE? It is a start in the right direction, and only time will tell.

So, is this statement true, “Compensation can appease the judgment you are facing, along with repentance!”? Yes, I believe so, look at Zacchaeus, a chief tax collector, who had cheated many people! He restored to those people, four times as much of what he had stolen (Luke 19:8). Restoration of the wrong we have done to others, may not only be in the form of finances, but it could also be in many different ways. And if we are serious about restitution and making things right, the Lord will guide and direct us as to what we must do! AND PLEASE DO NOT MAKE IT, TOO LITTLE – TOO LATE!!!

A sidenote here: if you are the one who has been wronged, in most cases, you will not be compensated by the one who has wronged you! But rest assured, if you put your trust in the faithful and true God, and keep a right attitude (do not harbour bitterness, resentment or revenge), He will restore to you double what was lost, in many surprising and astonishing ways (Ps. 37:6; Isa. 54:17, 61:7-8; Rom. 12:19).
