All roads do lead to Jerusalem! As the world tries to hem in Israel and put her in a position where she has no more options, with the hopes that Israel will give the Palestinians, who by the way, desires her complete destruction, everything they want, the world powers pushing this agenda fail to realize that they are not in control of Israel or her future, God is. Yet they continue to pursue an agenda that is doomed for failure and will bring the world into chaos and ultimately near extinction. If you think I'm exaggerating just read Matthew 24, the very words spoken from the lips of our Redeemer.
"God is leading the world into the biggest mouse trap ever created and Israel is the cheese and the world are the mice and the mice are about ready to take a bite out of the cheese. When they do take their bite the trap will be set and there will be no turning back!"
I hope to accomplish this by using current headlines, audio, video and the Bible as reference points to make what can become overwhelming - easier to digest and talk about with friends and family!
Let's look at a partial list of some of the issues that are effecting our lives. I will highlight in yellow the item that has the greatest potential to usher into power the Antichrist (Man of Sin), the "7 Year False Peace Confirmation" (Daniel 9) between Israel and the PA, and then finally the Great Tribulation period and the fulfillment of all of the book of Revelation:
- Extreme Weather
- Rise of Antisemitism Around The Globe
- World Pressure to Give up Land for Peace
- World's Obsession With Jerusalem
- Divide Jerusalem for Peace
- Secular Jews Want The Temple Built on The Mount
- The Anti-God Movement and Lawlessness
- Rise of The Counter Religious Culture (New Age & Replacement Theology)
- Churches Are Promoting and Helping The Growth of Antisemitism
- Multiple Ways to Heaven Now (Jesus is no longer "the" way)
- Earthquakes and Natural Disasters on The Rise
- Four Sequential Blood Moons
- Wars and Rumors of Wars
- Nuclear Proliferation Throughout the Middle East
- The Gay Agenda Has Gone Mainstream
- Fear and Anxiety Seems to Rule The Day
- Children Killing Themselves and One Another
- Our Schools Are Not Safe Anymore
- Love of Many Growing Colder
- World's Economies in BIG Trouble Including USA
- The Diminishing of The United States of America and her distain for Israel
- The Rise of Russia, Iran, Turkey and China
- Israel (Jerusalem) Surrounded by Her Enemies
Most of the signs of the last days that we are seeing are direct consequences of two things, a world attempting to push Israel out of the land that God has called them to or hatered of the Jewish people and a world that wants nothing to do with our God.
You see, the Lord can forgive many things and be patient and deal with humanity on many different levels, but there is one action the Lord must remedy and it is the action that endangers His people and the land He promised to them as an inheritance. God promised that when He brought His people back, they would never again be removed. Therefore God is bound by His promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to honor His protection over Israel and Jerusalem. The Lord can only allow this to continue for so long and then He has no choice but to act and to act decisively.
In my opinion and after careful analysis that spans over 30 years of study in this area and what I am seeing all around me today in this generation, I believe we have crossed a line of no return and the Lord has and is putting all the players in place, so that He can do what He promised He would do for His people. The time to intervene for the "People of The Book," the Jews and the Land of Israel is upon us and the Lord will not stop until He has accomplished what He has promised in scripture. The writing for the destiny of the world is on the walls and those of us who read the Bible know full well what the outcome will be.
Here's some Bible references that reveal God's heart on the matter:
- Psalm 72 - tells us how much God loves His People: Read it Here
- Jeremiah 31 - tells us that if you can measure the heavens then God's promises to His people will cease. Seasons would have to stop and the universe would have to cease. In other words, God will never stop loving His people. Read it Here
- Genesis 12:3 - tells us that if we bless Israel and the Jews God will bless us! Read it Here
Just in the three scriptures above we can see how in love God is with His land and His people. He will never turn His back on them! He will accomplish all that is in His heart for them. Anyone who reads the Bible with an open mind and from a place of truth, will come away with the understanding that God has a great plan for two groups of people, the Jews and His Bride, those who have come to Yeshua during the times of the Gentiles and that time is now and actually began with advent of the Apostle Paul's ministry, who was called to bring the gospel to the gentiles.
I want to examine what I consider to be the most critical of all the signs. This geo-political action and decision, the "Dividing of Jerusalem" and Israel (west bank) for peace, is what brings about a war between God and the world, God and Satan, here on terra firma (earth) that has never, nor will it ever again take place. You can read Joel 3:1-3, Jeremiah 30-31 and Revelation 18-20 to see that this is not an over estimate, on my part, of just how serious this is to the Lord. The world is currently teetering on the razors edge between here and the Messianic Rule of Christ, by non-stop pressure the world is applying to Israel on this matter of peace and Jerusalem.
Zechariah 12 tells us that Jerusalem will become a cup of trembling and that all the nations of the world will be drunk or intoxicated over Jerusalem. We see this happening now. In my 39 years of being Born Again I have never seen the world so focused on Jerusalem. This should give us pause as to what the signifigance of this actually is. The U.S.A. is threatening Israel with a boycott should they not turn over the West Bank and split Jerusalem in two capitals, sharing it with the Palestinians. The PA side will be their capital (east) and the west will be the Jews capital. Even now companies like Google, Inc refuse to acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. A simple google search will identify this as being true. John Kerry is spending 99% of all his time in the persuit of peace, false peace to be exact, a peace that will only bring death and destruction to the Jews. (See Isaiah 28 NKJV)
Watch this video by Pastor Begely concerning this issue:
Minister Bennet Says NO to Land For Peace and Under NO
Circumstances Can Jerusalem be Divided!
PS. He would make a great Prime Minister of Israel by the
way...
The two videos above clearly show that the world is moving into
very dangerous territory over the issue of Jerusalem and the
West Bank.
Eric Stakelbeck, The Watchman, with CBN news
shows just how dangerous this is for the world:
Watch it here
This is where it's all headed:
The Plan to Surround Israel: Part 1
The Plan to Surround Israel: Part 2
Russia, Iran and War in The Middle East
"By 2015 and possibly sooner Iran will easily reach
the west coast of the USA with nuclear tipped missiles"
Iran Tests Long Range Missiles
"Iran has enough uranium to make bomb"
In Summary:
The dividing of Jerusalem, the push for peace between the PA and Israel, the Arab spring and winter and now the cooperation between Iran, Turkey, North Africa and Russia, coupled with the Iranian nuclear threat, and the four blood moons that begin this April on Passover are all evidences that something is going on in the spiritual realm that is most definitely spilling over into time and space, our realm.
I would like to insert here my observations and thoughts concerning the blood moons. The danger with "extra" Biblical information, like the blood moons, is that it has a tendency to bring about a sensational sense to what could be and I feel compelled to warn us about getting to excited too fast over this. Here's why. If you look at the blood moons, as an example, in 1948 when Israel became a nation, the moons didn't appear until a year after the event or from 1949-1950. The same happened during the Spanish Inquisition and Columbus taking the Jews out to sea in 1492. If interested you can see the dates here. Please don't misunderstand, God most certainly uses the stars and the heavens to communicate to us, but we need to keep both feet firmly planted here on earth and not get too carried away over the possibilities of what God may or may not say to us. There is a real possibility that events and blood moon appearances could not sync up appropriately with events on earth. The final authority we need to hold firmly to is the Word of God and we need to approach the "extra" biblical signs cautiously. If God is going to communicate with us, we will know it and He will make it crystal clear to us, that He is sending us a message. We won't have to guess or hypothesize and construct a message, it will be clear if it is sent from the Lord!
Finally, the political power brokers of the day, are just arrogant enough to think that what they are doing can actually lead all of us into an era of peace and harmony where we will all be gathered together around the global camp fire singing Kumbaya. This of course will not be the case, the world will not be singing, it will be calling out for the rocks to fall on them to hide them from the coming of the Lord! Read it here
The world and those who have no allegiance to God have decided to walk down a path that will put them at odds with our Messiah and Lord and the battle of the ages will ensue. But before this happens we are liable to experience painful events like economic instability, extreme upheavals from nature, violence, wars and unrest like never before. You can take this to the bank, as the world steps up it's pressure on Israel and should Jerusalem be divided, this planet will be plunged into tribulation like never before and it will make World War 2 look like a walk in the park.

The geo-political sign to keep your eyes on is Israel and Jerusalem.
Everything is shifting in that direction. Whatever the world does with Israel, the Jews and Jerusalem, that will dictate the course of events here on earth. From what I can tell, the world is becoming so intoxicated with peace at any cost and getting those pesky Jews to cooperate that they are willing to look to anyone who seems to have answers and they are willing to surrender all freedoms just to have a man - made peace.
Like Bill Salus said in his remarks with Eric Stakelbeck, Psalm 83 could very well be the next event soon to happen and Israel could enlarge her borders and this could lead to a seven year peace pact. You can bet that three and one half years later Russia will go after Israel with all the players in Ezekiel 38 and 39 because they will see an opportunity to take what doesn't belong to them. Should that happen, well you know what Ezekiel tells us, God fights the battle and just decimates the enemies of Israel. Have you ever seen fire rain down on anyone? That day is coming and coming sooner than we may realize!
Israel's current natural gas finds via Nobel Energy, right off the Israeli coast, called the Tamar project, is one of the largest finds in history! This find is so lucrative that Israel is selling natural gas to Jordon and neighboring Arab states. How amazing is that? This and other finds that are coming online sets Israel up to become one of the wealthiest nations on earth. Follow the natural gas and oil is sure to follow. The Psalm 83 prophecy fits nicely into Israel's natural gas and oil finds.
Russia has an unquenchable hunger for natural gas and oil, as well she is in competition with the Chinese over Middle Eastern oil and it's natural resources. Most countries think twice before robbing the natural resources from another country. In Israel's case, because she is loved by God and Satan and the world hate Him and the Jew who brought the Messiah, Jesus Christ into the world, it is reasonable to conclude that Russia and China will invade Israel during the tribulation period. Ezekiel 38 and Revelation point this out as well. We should keep in mind that these nations (enemies of God) are being dragged into a conflict by God Himself so that He can once and for all deal with them in a manner befitting their crimes against the All Mighty!
I want to draw your attention to a prophecy in Jeremiah 30. Please take note that the Lord starts out by telling us He will bring the Jews back into their land, the land He drove them out of. This began in 1948 and continues to this day. Let's keep in mind that the Jews didn't live in their land granted to them by trust deed, by God Himself for over 2,000 years! For the first time in over 2000 years there are more Jews in Israel than anywhere else. More Jews are in Israel than in New York. Until recently this was not the case. The Jews are threatened, killed, persecuted and called all manner of ugly things and yet the Jewish population continues to grow and explode in Israel. It is as though the more you persecute us, the greater our birth rates rise. We seem to multiply under pressure. Amazing how God confirms His love towards the "Apple of His Eye," the Jews. Immediately after this prophecy of bringing His people back into the land, what do you see? You see God warning of the "Time of Jacobs Trouble," the "Tribulation," and then you see God telling His people that they will be severely punished for a little while (v. 11-16 NKJV). The captives have returned to the land and now the next thing on God's time line is the "Time of Jacobs Trouble."
This is why I warn, keep your eyes on Jerusalem. God is dragging the world powers into His trap which will be the false peace process and their obsession over Jerusalem. When Jerusalem gets divided and it will at some point, look for wars and natural disasters to happen like nothing you have ever seen. Remember to, the Man of Sin (Antichrist) will put the plan together, and then mid-way into the seven year peace plan the war to end all wars will begin. I believe this will be the Ezekiel 38-39 war. I also believe the rapture of believers, the Bride of Christ can happen anytime between now and prior to the beginning of the Great Tribulation spoken of by Yeshua in Matthew 24. These are exciting times to be alive.
"Watch Jerusalem, Israel and the Jews. Keep your ears to the pavement. As Jerusalem goes so goes the world. Jerusalem is the focal point now and the world is absolutely crazy drunk over her!" Zechariah 12, Joel 3 and Jeremiah 30
As I mentioned previously, the trap is set and all we need now is for the mouse to take the bait. That's about ready to happen, stay tuned!
All roads do lead to Jerusalem!
My call to everyone… BE READY WE ARE LIVING IN THE DAYS OF MESSIAH’S RETURN! How does one get ready? Read Romans 10:9-13
Remember, the Lord loves us more than any of us will ever know. After all, He died and shed His blood for us and held nothing back!

'But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned, and a sword comes and takes a person from them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require from the watchman's hand.' Ezekiel 33:6
But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. 1Thessalonians 5:1-6
“My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will not belong to the council of my people or be listed in the records of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD. Because they lead my people astray, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace …” Ezekiel 13:9-10
Excellent report, well written and researched unlike some of the sensationalistic tripe out there.
God richly bless you my friend!
