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.

Turkey has allied herself militarily with Libya in the last few days. This echoes the war dubbed WW111 of Ezekiel 38 & 39.
Ongoing troubles in the US and many other nations are causing large numbers of Jews to make enquiries about returning to Israel. (When the Lion roars, His children will return, trembling from the West (Hosea 11:10)
Israel launches attack on Hamas in response to their rocket attack on Israel. Israel launches new spy satellite. Israel launches attack on Iranian bases in Syria. “Mystery” explosions continue in Iran.

These will change on Sundays or as the Lord leads.

This verse, below was given to me by our Lord in December last year to give to you as the crowning verse for 2020. This was just before the corona-virus became a world pandemic:

The heading is, “Babylon humiliated.” End-time Babylon is the modern world system:

Isaiah 47:10-11 “You have trusted in your wickedness. You have said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and your knowledge have warped you; You have said in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one besides me.’ Therefore evil shall come upon you and you shall not know from where it arises, and trouble shall fall upon you. You will not be able to put it off, and desolation shall come upon you suddenly.”

1 Thessalonians 5:6 “Let us not sleep as others do, but watch.”

1 Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”

Matthew 24:43 “Know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.”

Ephesians 5:13-14 “All things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Awake, you who sleep; arise from the dead, and Messiah will give you light.”

Shabbat Shalom to all!

Watchmen what do you see?

Masses are in the salvation firing lines. This will include masses of prodigals and backslidden Christians. Entire churches will awaken to end-time Bible prophecy.

At the same time many, specifically those who are not, and come against being Spirit filled, will be taken over by strong and powerful deceptive spirits and fall away. They will join with the spirit of the antichrist and false spirits of the ecumenical, interfaith, one-world order system.

As the world shakes, more and more will look for stability – and find it in our Lord. The shaking is about to become extremely severe and masses will seek the truth, but because their hearts are not repentant and right the truth will not find them.

Many will go with what they believe is truth, but the truth-teller may be a fraud to begin with.

There are some out there presenting wonderful truth, rightly applied, but they are few and far between. When you encounter them, value and treasure them, and pray for them to continue.

As spiritual darkness descends, as prophesied in numerous passages, the entire world will be engulfed in the darkness of encroaching sin and wickedness. In very thick darkness light can’t penetrate and the light merges with darkness. (Luke 11:35)

Many times I have wandered through various wildlife areas at night with a torch. You need to watch carefully where you are going. You need to be a watchman alright!

Sometimes as you shine the torch, it picks up the shining, glowing eyes of a silent animal deep in the bush. You don't know if its a friend or foe, just from the glowing eyes.

If the torch doesn’t shine truly and brightly, how can you see and watch where you are going?

I know that many ministers and prophecy teachers read The Prophetic Scroll, and judging by what a lot of them have said, there is a growing unity in the message amongst us. That would be like many together, each with a torch, shining together in the darkness.

At the end of the day, the light of God’s truth is to guide us into the bright shining eternal glory of heavenly light, with an abundant entrance.

You don’t want to just scrape into heaven by the skin of your teeth, smelling like hell.

So, the important job of the watchman’s torch is to shed light on the right way and expose the wrong way. People’s lives are affected and changed by these things.

Not too long ago some so-called watchmen, under the curse of Nibiru taught their deceived followers that the planet Nibiru was about to strike the earth and destroy it. This was taught by the Revelation 12 –sign teachers.

Some today teach the most outrageous, dangerous, Satan-rooted heresy like: Modern day Jews can never repent because they are cursed, because a small group of them stoned Steven nearly 2000 years ago!

Disagreement amongst watchmen detracts and harms the message and Bible prophecy. It means some are not hearing from the Spirit of God, who has a unified message of pure truth. Too many watchmen are full of pride, watching through blinded eyes. They need to get out of ministry!

Agreement amongst watchmen adds weight and substance to the message. Agreement highlights and shines on the truth, confirming and establishing it.

watchmen3a

Pride is a watchman’s light-killer. It dims the light and confuses it with the darkness. Pride in a Christian minster is terribly dangerous. It deceives him with his self-importance. It blinds him to the light.

2 Corinthians 11:13-14 “Such are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Messiah. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.”

The angel of light, Satan is in the darkness of the night! “Watchmen, watchmen, what of the night? “ (Isaiah 21:11) Watchman, are you looking into the night with your light? Do you see what is of the “angel of light?” Do you watch, see and warn?

Jeremiah 6:17-18 “I set watchmen over you, saying, ‘listen to the sound of the trumpet.’ But they said. ‘We will not listen!’ Therefore hear O nations and learn O congregations, what will happen. Hear O earth! I am bringing disaster on this people, the fruit of their own schemes (thoughts), because they have paid no attention to My word and have rejected My instruction.”

In these above we see the sad reaction of the world to God's warning. They rejected it. That is exactly where we are today. But it’s quite another thing, and just as tragic when the watchman speaks a lot of hogwash and the people think he speaks the truth.

The most valuable torch-battery that a watchman can have is the cross of Calvary. It creates the power to give pure light, and strips out pride and its error.

The wonder of the cross is that it shows you that you are not valuable and precious, but that you are a dying rat with rabies, deserving of death. Then it raises you and gives you great eternal value.

Today we have a flood of ministers, ministries and so-called watchmen who are cross-less. They are of “another Jesus”. They are Spirit-less.

Their goal is your material wealth, so that they can benefit from it too. They teach self-improvement, self-esteem, self importance, all without the cross, which kills self. The speak the rat language.

They are not enemies of Christ. They are enemies of the cross of Christ! (Philippians 3:18) So they actually end up with “another Christ”!

The power of the cross and resurrection now works from inside your heart, where once the rat and blind bat lived.

Only stupid watchmen use weak, half-flat batteries in their torch. In their blindness they set themselves up as God’s editor, removing all the hard sayings and severity from their doctrine, producing spineless, worldly, weak counterfeit Christians.

It’s always the same people that get caught in big errors. They seem to attract all the rubbish. There’s a reason for that. It is because of their hidden pride, and because they have let in a spirit of error and have not cast it out or repented. It comes back seven times worse.(Matthew 12:45)

You need to be very careful and diligent with your faith. Examine it and guard it, and always move forward in total surrender to all truth, and actively avoid the error out there.

We see the two white horse riders contrasted in the Bible. Revelation 6:2 sees the rider on a white horse, given a crown (corona) and with a bow but no arrow, symbolising deception. Then we see God’s white horse rider at the end of the Revelation.

Revelation 19:11-14 “I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war...and the armies in heaven clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.”

Notice the accompanying riders! The antichrist rider flies onto the stage with three other riders of the apocalypse - riders of deception, wielding death, destruction, and chaos.

Now notice our Lord on a white horse flying out of heaven with great armies of saints in fine linen, on white horses. The fine linen is the “righteousness of the saints”. (Revelation 19:8) Guess who these are? That’s us.

But note that we all return to make righteous war with our Lord. Since when do you go to war dressed in fine white linen? It is the final victory – the victory of fine righteousness over dirty wickedness! – Glory, I say!

Note well that at the marriage supper it is the church who are in fine while linen. Note well that as soon as dinner is over the white horse rider and the entire church still in white linen ride magnificently out of heaven at the Second Coming.

What amazing proof of a pre-tribulation rapture!!

✡† 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.
