Edition 425

This ministry has a distinct kingdom vision, identifying with God’s call and plan for Israel and the church. My position is pre-trib! I was saved in 1976 while working as a war correspondent, journalist, photographer, artist and environmentalist. My calling is to share with you the great end-time dramas, to stand as a watchman and above all, to glorify my God, to bless Israel and her people and the kingdom of God.

Why the pre-trib rapture is the only view that adds up and works.

US Democratic Party diplomat calls for Nations with a Christian influence to come against Israel, saying “Jesus Christ came to save the whole world from the Jews...Jews are not chosen!”
Report: “Obama tried to give the Golan to Syria.” But then came Trump who “gave” the Golan to Israel! And the difference is = The Bible!
US Dems take followers further and further away from all things related to a nation under God.
Russia warns Israel: "No more attacks on Syria or we will strike back."

Shabbat (Sabbath) begins on Fridays at 6pm and ends on Saturdays at 6pm. The purpose of this report is to help the church and Israel become reconciled in Messiah.

Shabbat Shalom to all!

War drums and trumpets:

Firstly I would like to really thank all those who have recently donated to this ministry. I must say I was amazed at the incredible response from so many. Thank you very much for your blessing to the kingdom of God, above all.

There’s a risk in giving out names that some will feel left out if I don’t name them. So please know that you are all being thanked and will be rewarded. You have encouraged me greatly with your gratitude. You are special! We go on to ever increasing glory!

I give you my assurance that I will continue to give you my best, in spite of wanting to go and live under a tree in the desert sometimes.

Please keep The Prophetic Scroll in your prayer, in that it stays open and unrestricted in these dangerous days. Also keep it as your essential go-to place for what is really happening, and for your deep spiritual growth.

The rumbling war drums:

Drum beats have many classifications. We have blues beat, disco beat, the jazz swing, the motown groove and more. But we also have a particular drum beat of war and battle. The drums of war actually originate from the repeating drum beat of the shaman or witchdoctor.

A certain drum beat would mean either dance or get ready for war. The drum beat would stimulate and strengthen the body and forge a sense of unity by the beat. They would unite the human and the spirit world. The drums of war were also referred to as the drums of death, especially when combined with trumpets.

I said all of that just for this: Can you hear the drums of war rolling? Can you hear the crescendo of drums and trumpets of great conflict echoing through the atmosphere?

This is where we are now. The drums and trumpets are only for those with ears to hear. Others would be wise to listen to those with ears to hear.

The terrible war machine of the nations is warming up to take control of the sleeping nations, who are led by the aged and wrinkled of mind, the pacifists and the true enemies of real liberty and freedom.

Russia is beating the war-drums as she threatens Israel with attack for attacking Iranian targets in Syria. Syria is beating new war drums covered with the ash of long-standing war. Iran is beating the war drum against Israel again, again, again!

Biden and his party are asleep to it all, including the blonde half-baked fairy from hell whose grand burning desire is to change the gender of kids.

It’s not just the US. Europe is worse in many areas.

It seems that insanity has suddenly been let out of the cage and is infecting the world so fast. Here is one of the succinct verses about those who have forsaken the Lord:

Deuteronomy 28:28 “The Lord will strike you with madness and blindness and confusion of mind.”

Why war?

In the old days we would fight over God’s creative beauty - a girl, and the girls would fight over us – Oh the good ole-days!

The bigger wars are fought over property, religion, political systems and the like. But there is really only one war that is of importance and that is the war to eliminate God’s beautiful creative purpose for Israel. It comes in many guises, but that is the underlying reason. It’s purely spiritual. It is the devil against God, at the end of the day.

So now we sit on the brink of war – the big one! Drums are rolling, trumpets are blowing and madmen from hell are arising, struck with blinding confusion and their weapons of annihilation tucked into their big-bird, metal wings.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall; Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, because an atom bomb blew him to smithereens. And all the king’s horses and all the king’s men took seven years to clean up the remnants of poor Humpty. What fun!

I can hear the drums of drama but I also hear the trumpet calling me to go and live under a tree in the desert! (Move over lions.)

The great war for God’s son – Israel, is prophesied. (Exodus 4:22-23) It’s all getting pretty hot in here. You need to know these things. You need to know why all things and people of God are targets.

People with no knowledge of the living God are fools, and easy to manipulate and turn into cannon fodder for every dumb gun in town.

You need to be anchored in the truth.

True living is living in truth.

If you try to befriend Satan and appease him, and walk in peace with him, you will automatically, by default, set yourself up as an enemy of God and you will pay the price!

Yes, Israel will miss it again and fall under punishment again, but the most stupid thing you can do is come against Israel in the bigger, overall picture.

Biden prepares to “kill” the Second Amendment right to bear arms in the US. Israel observes and compares this to Haman’s actions to try to destroy the Jews. Biden befriends the enemies of the west and of Israel in Yemen and Iran steps right in!

There was a time when God overlooked the ignorance of stupid, dumb politicians and people, but that day is gone (Acts 17:30, Acts 14:16)

Here’s a verse that should blow a lot more than your socks off:

Esther 9:1-2 “On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred, in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them...No one could withstand them because the fear of them fell upon all people.”

Take note, I say again take note, of the gravity of this verse above!!

The enemies of God and his son Israel, are united under Satan. The political parties, churches, inter-faith organisations and false religions of the world already have an unwritten unity between them – a hell bound unity!

The unity between true born-again believers is a unity based on truth and not lovey-dovey feelings.

As a believer, your culture must change! Your character and your personality must change as you grow in God. If not you will end up going with the flow of the wind.

Shalom...Joel

Edition 425: July 10^th 2018

The course of the nations:

nations-puppets

Introduction:

Invisible strings attach the nations to their prime controller. The nations are on course – a deadly course of decay in the dark. The nations are contaminated and must go bad.

Degeneration and deterioration are the keywords.

The collective consciousness and group-speak of the nations is a deadly thing. It gives confirmation to the plan of the devil. You need to know the ways of God well to escape the terrible grip of band-wagon thinking. The contraposition is where the truth is.

If the kingdom of God could be called a nation, it is increasing in glory, majesty, magnificence, splendour, triumph and all things good, even now and will be forever.

One thing we must realise is that the course of the nations cannot continue for much longer without judgement coming upon the whole world.

Lawless nations:

Lucifer tried to exalt himself above God. In so doing, he also exalts himself above God’s law, which is why the nations are in such a mess. They are trying to be above the law! As such, they are a law unto themselves, and failing miserably!

Jeremiah 10:23 “O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.”

Jeremiah 17:5 “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord.”

The Bible says that the “truth is being cast down in the street.” (Isaiah 59:14)That means the law of God is also being cast down. It is the law which identifies sin.

We as believers have a higher law – the law of life in Messiah in our hearts.

By casting down God’s laws and exalting their own ways, the unsaved are being hit with the huge double whammy of no identification of sin, and no restraint!

The nations in their quest to change and do away with God’s laws have let a genie out of the bottle. Just like wafting smoke, you can’t put it back in!

God’s way:

God’s choice and way is to have nations with defined, separate identities and strong borders. This is the case for Israel and also the nations of the world. The reason is simple. Nations under God can keep evil out and righteousness in, effectively.

This does not mean a nation must become a theocracy, but it does mean that God-based laws and leaders that respect God’s laws, should be in place.

A godly nation does not mean that all people are automatically saved. “The whole world lies under the wickedness of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19) But it is God’s will to have stable secure nations, as revealed in the verse below, and for the reason shown.

1 Timothy 2:1-2 “Pray for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence ...for God desires all men to be saved and come to knowledge of the truth.”

When a nation is under God in peace and quiet, it is easier for the gospel to go out.

A nation under God is impacted in the areas of family, church and state. That’s like the tripod of stability. If you remove one leg, the tripod will fall over.

Acts 17:26-28 “He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on the earth, and determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, so that they should seek the Lord and find Him...for in Him we live and move and have our being.”

Psalm 147:13-14 “He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed you children within you. (Jerusalem) He makes peace in your borders...”

Satan’s way:

All nations and world economies are heading for international domination and control. Here is the shocking, soon coming reality:

Isaiah 10:13-14”By the strength of my hand (antichrist) I have done it, and by my wisdom for I am prudent. I also have removed the boundaries of the people, and have robbed their treasuries. I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man. My hand has found like a nest the riches of the people, and as one gathers eggs that are left, I have gathered all the earth, and there was no one who moved his wing, nor opened his mouth with even a peep.”

Revelation 13:3 “...All the world marvelled and followed the beast.”

Revelation13:7 “...Authority was given him (antichrist) over every tribe tongue and nation.”

Revelation 17:13 “These (nations) are of one mind, and they will give their authority and power to the beast.”

When Adam fell, he became a puppet of Satan. He bought into the lie that he could be like God in his independence from God.

►The nations must be removed from being “under God” to being “under Satan”, so that he can gain control of the world. That is what brings God’s wrath and destruction.

Removing the boundaries:

God set boundaries between good and evil. ●He set boundaries between nations. ●He set boundaries betweenmale and female, ●He set boundaries between child and parent. ●He set boundaries for young children, seen in discipline. ●He set the boundaries of law and order. ●He set spiritual boundaries keeping the occult and witchcraft out. ●He set the boundaries of Israel. ●He set the boundaries between the saved and the unsaved. ●He set boundaries betweenheaven and hell.

To create nations under Satan, all of these boundaries must be removed. Chaos and anarchy are the ingredients and working constituents required for mass control by Satan.

You tell me, are any of these boundaries being tampered with today? Yes sir – all of them!

If there was a verse saying, “You shall not eat peanut butter because it sticks to your mouth.” You can be sure that CNN and others of the mass-media would be having 24/7 panel discussions on the virtues of peanut butter!

It is the things of God that are being broken down so that the things of the devil can flood in.

The philosophy behind borderless equality is togetherness as one, with no separation. That necessitates the removal of the cross, because it is the eternal separator!

A classic example of how nations under God can be brought down is seen in Europe today. It was once a godly place – sort of, anyway! Today all things of God are far, far away. Europe is in darkness.

Some nations in Europe are now Juden Frei, meaning free of all Jews. Those countries are now in the process of being run over by Muslims. They have kicked God out and God has let the enemy in like a flood! Mark these words: Economic and political chaos is soon going to explode onto this stage!

Uncontrolled immigration is an attack on a nation’s stability. That is why Israel won’t let the flood of migrants in, like Europe has done.

Generally speaking, border security is not to keep good out, but evil.

The globalists think they are out to destroy nationalism, but they are out to try to destroy God. They are anti-God and His word. The nationalist agenda is God’s way for Israel – all through the Bible. This is also why the liberal left hate Israel and its claim on the land and the city.

The world capital of nationalism is Israel. The world capital of modern globalism is end-time Babylon, the mass-media and all the collective, intellectual dung-heads of the world.

We do in fact have successful, unified globalism right now! True believers are “one new man,” with “neither Jew nor Gentile, male or female” – all one in Messiah. But this new universal, global man is about to go to heaven for seven years and then to glorious eternity.

This kingdom of perfection is exclusive. It is a forbidden kingdom to all the unsaved of the world.

It is written and it will come to pass, and all things will end up God’s way! The “write” of the modern scribes is a powerless,deception!

How to fix any nation’s crime problem in one sentence:

Romans 13:3 “Rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good...”

That’s it – one verse, which is the answer to all crime in a nation.

The authorities (police, law) must be a terror to the criminal and seen as such. If not, an inverse takes place and the criminal becomes a terror to society! It’s that simple?

The law must be a terror, or the criminal will be a terror. The law can show mercy when required, but must be the overall God-ordained terror.

This is the way things work in Israel. Their laws against terror are the toughest in the world.

Sin advances because it can. Punishment produces correction and repentance, but if you remove punishment you are in grave danger.

The liberal mind believes in the inherent goodness of man. God believes the opposite!

Interestingly, the criminal mind, motivated by Satan always comes against the authorities. The discourse above in Romans 13, speaks also of authorities as being minsters of God. That simply means that the office of the authority in a nation is of God.

Cain said to the Lord after murdering his brother and being “marked” by the authority of God: “My punishment is more than I can bear.” (Genesis 4:13) That is the root of the criminal’s hatred for the authorities! You see it everywhere.

He was only concerned about himself and not his victim.

Today we see nations that are strongly against crime, being successful and just the opposite, with those weak on crime. They become terrorised by the criminal.

The nation – Israel:

Hitler’s “final solution” for the Jews was the Holocaust. But the world’s biggest backfire ever was that as WW11 ended, Israel became a nation born in a day! (Isaiah 66:8)

Instead of destruction, came the miracle of Israel’s birth as a nation! From death came life.

Now we come to a great modern miracle soon to take place. God will remove the iniquity of Israel in one day! (Zechariah 3:9) So, the nation of Israel was born in a day, and the spiritual birth will take place in one day. Will the spiritual birth occur just as the world goes into tribulation and WW111?

God chose a people, a land and a city to complete His purposes. 40 times in the Bible, God swore an oath to the Jews which included the land for the nation.

The nations hate Israel because it contains the plan of God. The world is of its god – Satan.

Micah 7:9-17 “...He will bring me (Israel) forth to the light, and I will see His righteousness. Then she who is my enemy will see, and shame will cover her who said to me, where is the Lord your God? ...The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall put their hand over their mouth. Their ears shall be deaf. They shall lick the dust like a serpent...They shall be afraid of the Lord.”

Zechariah 12:9 “It shall be in that day that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem!”

Interestingly a nation under Satan is almost always anti-Israel.

The raging nations:

Psalm 2:1-2 “Why do the nations rage and plot a vain thing? The kings and rulers of the earth set themselves to take counsel together against the Lord, saying, ‘let us break their bonds in pieces...”

The nations want to destroy godly ways and structures, which are the “bonding” and strength of the nation. If they can do this, they deliver a weak nation to the devil on a platter!

Why do the nations so blindly accept evil and sin? Why do they fall for the lies of their heroes and villains? The world and the sin-nature of man are all of the same satanic spirit and they can’t see the difference even if they tried!

The nations compare themselves amongst themselves, and set their morality accordingly – not wise! The people become acclimatised to the standard of the nation.

When the masses are complicit there is power. There is strength in unity, even if it’s ungodly.

You can’t make peace with the world. You can’t make the world a place of peace. To do so, would mean that you must make peace with the devil and remove the cross.

The media, the movies, and the entertainment world, always say that they are simply reflecting the morality of the present world. That may be partially true, but the full truth is that they also create an evil morality, giving it authority, and then justifying it with comments like, “Everyone is like this.”

The media are masters of selective editing to create the picture they want.

Proverbs 28:4 (Amp) “Those who forsake the law (word) of God and man, praise the wicked, but those who keep it contend (get angry) with them.”

Psalm 119:53 (Amp) “Burning indignation, terror (Lit=horror) and sadness seize upon me because of the wicked who forsake your law (word.)”

Hosea 4:1-2 There is no mercy, truth or knowledge of God in the land...They break all restraint.”

We are our Lord’s ambassadors of stability in the shaking and raging nations!

Ambassador: One of another country, representing and speaking for his king or emperor.

2 Corinthians 5:20 “We are ambassadors for Messiah, as though God was pleading through us...”

But many of the Lord’s ambassadors have joined up with the world-system and are now total sell-outs that can't be trusted.

Tragically, many vociferous ambassadors are now gone or silent. The world has lost its marbles. It has lost its innocence! It is now guilty as charged!

The world today is the antithesis of holiness and all that is of God. It is evil, wicked, corrupt, obscene, depraved, hateful, vicious, vile, and just plain wrong. Wrath is its future!

When you remove God from a nation, don’t think that democracy has any validity!

The biggest enemy we will face in the run-up to all the end-time events will be the mass-media and the Spirit-less, spineless church.

Satan’s strategy is: “Corrupt them and conquer them.”

►The devil keeps control by keeping nations apart from God and His ways. This is the true apartheid of the mass-media! The mass-media is the self-appointed judge of all. They are evil censors, doing the work of their master. They censor godly ways and life on every front. They are the high-gods of apartheid and censorship.

We need to use spiritual warfare gifts to maintain godly virtues and values in the nations.

Nahum 2:1 “He who scatters has come up before your face. Man the fort! Watch your road! Strengthen your flanks! Fortify your power mightily!”

People love the world because they can’t see it. They see its thin veneer of deceptive beauty. They cannot see its true nature, or its ruler in camouflage.

The Hebrew words for “night” and “mixture” have the same root word. The nations, in their darkness have mixed into their deadly cocktail, all of the world’s wickedness.

Proverbs 28:28 “When the wicked arise, men hide themselves; but when they perish, the righteous increase.”

Proverbs 29:2 “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

The near future of the nations:

The seriousness, gravity and truth of God’s word are frighteningly revealed and spelt out in the verses below. The full horror of it all will take place in the tribulation period, soon to begin. But as you read through the verses, may they impact you deeply.

Ezekiel 7:5-10 “A disaster, a singular disaster has come! An end has come; it has dawned for you! Doom has come to you, who dwell in the land. A day of trouble is near and not of rejoicing. Upon you, I will soon pour out My fury...I will judge you according to your ways and your abominations...Doom has gone out; the rod has blossomed. Pride has budded.”

Zephaniah 1:14-17 “The great day of the Lord is near, it hastens quickly. The noise of the day of the Lord is bitter. The mighty men shall cry out. It is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of devastation and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, a day of trumpet and alarm against the fortified cities and high towers. I will bring distress upon men and they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the Lord. Their blood shall be poured out like dust, and their flesh like refuse.”

Psalm 33:10-12 “The Lord brings the counsel or the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, and the people who He has chosen as His own inheritance.”

It is national suicide to kick God out of a nation.

How do you see the nations?

Jeremiah 4:26 “...I looked and behold, all the cities were broken down at the presence of the Lord, by His fierce anger.”

Yeshua loves and nourishes His bride. The antichrist hates and kills his bride the false church and the unsaved of the nations.

Finally

Today there is a new normal all around us. It is a normal full of advancing evil and wickedness. This requires the same normal from us and that is: “I have been crucified to the world and it to me.”

When the world is going in the wrong direction, you better be going the other direction fast.

The tragic sum of godless modern man is: “Me now!” and “Do what you will!” But all of this is about to run into the great ruler of the kingdom of God – the eternal, glorious, nation of God!

The course of the nations is doom. But you can live in that gloom perfectly victoriously! There is real revival when the church influences the nation.

Our nation - the kingdom of God, is the answer. Do you have your passport? You need it!

This is one of my paintings from some time ago. It is a mixed media creation using some collage elements, air-brushing and other techniques.
