8-26-22A Slow-Moving Disaster

A Slow-Moving Disaster - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2022/04/03/a-slow-moving-disaster-by-daymond-duck/ On Mar. 21, 2022, White House Press Sec. Jen Psaki said the White House is expecting food shortages in Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, but not the U.S. On Mar. 23, 2022, Glen Beck said, “One-third of the world’s wheat comes from Russia and Ukraine…. The next thing you need to understand is … the supply chain (for food) is 90 days…. If it stops, let’s say for some reason, stop all farming, we would have 90 days left of food worldwide… (because of the price and availability of fertilizer and fuel). Farmers all around the world are not planting their fields.” On Mar. 24, 2022, Pres. Biden said, “The world will experience food shortages as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine…. It’s going to be real.” Bloomberg analyst Alexis Maxwell called it “a slow-moving disaster.” Here are some stories that made the news in recent days. One, concerning famine during the Tribulation Period: on Mar. 25, 2022, Tucker Carlson said on the “Tucker Carlson Tonight” program, “A food shortage is a big deal. You don’t want one. But now we’re getting one, just a little over a year into Joe Biden’s presidency.” Carlson blamed Biden for: Sanctions on Russia that are disrupting the shipment of fertilizers to many nations. Fertilizer shortages will reduce crop yields, cause some farmers to not plant a crop, etc. Shutting down oil production in the U.S. This is driving up the cost of gasoline and diesel fuel. It is making the cost of producing and distributing food more expensive, increasing inflation, and driving up the cost of everything people purchase. Allowing China to purchase U.S. farmland. Readers need to recall that some globalists want a global central government to control the world’s food supply and make food distribution more fair. If a global central government gets control of the world’s food supply, there is no guarantee U.S. produced food will remain and be sold in the U.S. Two, on Mar. 24, 2022, Israel’s Transportation Minister, Merav Michaeli, instructed officials to prioritize the unloading of ships bringing in grain and animal feed. Michaeli appears to be following Joseph’s example when he interpreted Pharaoh’s dream and stored food for the seven lean years (Gen. 41). Michaeli said, “We face challenges to our food security at the time being because of the worrying developments in Ukraine,” Three, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: on Mar. 24, 2022, Russia’s Ambassador to Syria said Israel is “escalating tensions” and “provoking Russia to react” by its strikes on targets in Syria. Four, concerning deceit, here is a link to a four-minute segment of video (dated Mar. 22, 2022) of Pres. Biden telling House Democrats that Russia is to blame for inflation and high oil prices. https://youtu.be/UdysmuailfU What Biden says seems so blatantly wrong, he must be totally corrupt or mentally ill (readers can view him, hear him, and make up their own mind). Five, concerning deceit or a reprobate mind: about one year ago, a female patient was raped at an unnamed British women’s hospital. Despite video showing the rape, staff seeing the video, and other evidence, the hospital administration claimed it was impossible for the patient to be raped because there were no men in the hospital. It took almost a year to get the facts out, but it now turns out that the female patient was raped by a transgender patient (a biological male) that self-identified as a female, and hospital officials wouldn’t admit the facts. This may top Pres. Biden’s promise to nominate a black woman to fill a position on the U.S. Supreme Court, and this woman and mother, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, a Harvard Law School graduate, doesn’t know what a woman is. How can a female that doesn’t know what a woman is graduate with honors from Harvard Law School? How can a female judge that doesn’t know what a woman is properly understand cases involving women’s issues? How can someone (Richard Levine, aka Rachel Levine) be born as a male, marry a woman, live as a male for more than 50 years, father two children, and become USA Today’s “Woman of the Year.” And how can a big-tech company (Twitter) get away with censoring people for saying Richard is a man, not a woman? Who causes people to deliberately repeat lies and try to force others to repeat lies when they surely know better (Satan)? Society has reached the point where the Pres. of the U.S., hospital administrators, Harvard Law School graduates, and people in high places willingly sin (and try to force others to willing sin) by denying plain facts and science, and there is little wonder why the judgment of God will soon fall. Six, concerning an economic collapse or one world currency: on Apr. 1, 2022, Russia started requiring “unfriendly nations” to pay for oil or natural gas with rubles, gold, or bitcoin (no dollars or euros accepted). Putin believes this will eventually be the end of a U.S.-dominated currency system and ultimately lead to a new global currency system. (More: It has been reported that Russia and India are close to an agreement to abandon the dollar and start trading in their own currencies, a step that will allow them to avoid sanctions, weaken the dollar, and impact the global economy.) (Question: Pres. Biden said sanctions don’t work, so if he is not deliberately trying to weaken the dollar and create a crisis to establish a global currency, why is he doing this?) Seven, concerning peace in the Middle East: on Mar. 29, 2022, as part of the Abraham Accords, the U.S., UAE, and Israel signed a document to “expand the circle of peace in the region and the world.” It is not a covenant of peace, but it is an agreement to use the Abraham Accords to “promote religious coexistence and tolerance.” The group hopes to expand its influence to include all of the nations that have signed the Abraham Accords or are thinking about signing the Abraham Accords. This could be a big step toward a “covenant with many.” Eight, last week I wrote that I have been asked if Putin is Gog. I received an e-mail from a reader this morning that said Putin can stay in office until 2036 if he wants, and the word Putin means Prince, as in chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. I believe the Battle of Gog and Magog will be before 2036 (Iran’s efforts to get nuclear weapons could trigger it almost anytime), and (I can’t verify it), but if Putin means Prince as in chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, that is a very strong clue. Finally, are you Rapture Ready? If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this. duck_daymond@yahoo.com 7 Signs for Rapture - by Bill Perkins - https://compass.org/7-signs-for-rapture/ Watching the news is quite exciting these days. The Bible has very specific prophecies to watch for in the latter days as Jesus' return grows closer. Is this exciting or what! There are actually numerous prophecies about this time in which we live, but there are seven big ones that stand out... 1) Israel Back in Her Homeland Say to them, "Thus says the Lord GOD, 'Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;'" Ezek. 37:21 In 70 AD, Jerusalem was conquered by the armies of Rome led by Titus in a brutal five-month battle. In 132 AD, the Jews bravely took back Jerusalem. But in 135 AD, the Jews were defeated again and Abraham's offspring were scattered around the world for some 1800 years. In 1948, motivated by the Jewish deaths in the German gas chambers during World War II, the Jews took back the land that God had promised them...except the most important piece of land, the Temple Mount on Mount Moriah, which would not be regained until 1967. Today, none of the Bible prophecies would matter if Israel had not returned to her homeland. 2) Huge Worldwide Inflation And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; Rev. 6:6 In the above verse we see it takes an average day's wage, a denarius, just to buy food for a day. And guess who will control who gets the food... What's happening around the world today is not about health, it's not food, it's not energy and it certainly is not about war in Ukraine. The purpose of everything happening is for the Globalists/Satanists to gain more and more control. They want to be your god, like it or not. Once they got President Trump out of the way, by hook or crook, the Globalists/Satanists have been spending trillions of dollars everywhere they can. It is unbelievable how they are spending money. Everyone seems to be getting billions and we just went over $30 trillion in national debt. Biden just sent $11 billion to sweeten the pot for Iran to secure a new treaty.(1) Obama sent Iran his billions in cash in the middle of the night...ostensibly to settle an old American debt. That's the official story. The purpose of all Biden's spending, in addition to lining his friends pockets with side deals, is to ultimately collapse the United States dollar in order to have no other choice but to issue a new digital wallet. Expect them to loudly claim it's the only way to save the nation. But prior to the coming digital wallet, we get to deal with all their inflationary tactics. It's been said that everyone on the planet is only nine meals away from food riots. When the food gets so expensive only a few have the means to afford it, law and order will break down. They're just warming up with the smash and grab at your local jewelers. It'll get to the point just carrying groceries to the car will be dangerous. However, I personally don't think all this will come about until after the Rapture. 1) https://canadafreepress.com/article/bizarre-biden-restores-iran-deal-w-11-billion-gift-during-ukraine-crisis 3) World-Connected Banking System And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. Rev. 13:16-17 In the not-too-distant future, we know from scripture there will be a one-world currency. The question is when? History records when other countries inflated their paper money so badly to the point it was worthless, government officials simply started over with a new money, called a reset. This reset, this implementation of a new currency, was always done without warning. People just woke up one day and a new currency was in place at the local banks. Usually when this happens, about 80% of the present worth of their cash in banks is confiscated/converted to the new system. All this talk today about getting to a reset is for a global reset, not just a reset in the United States. The Globalists/Satanists want all the currencies of the world rolled into one digital system. A digital reset would, of course, give the Globalists/Satanists complete control of who gets what, and when. Every transaction can be monitored. Just like they froze the bank accounts in Canada of those who donated to the trucker convoy, once the digital system is in place, it won't be long before the Globalists/Satanists can lock you out of the system. And naturally, you have no recourse. For instance, if you don't get va((inated, they could block your monthly Social Security deposit. Maybe they'll let you have half of it for a while to give you some time to think about your decision. And the system is already worldwide...currently Mastercard and Visa just froze all their accounts in Russia. If they can do it to innocent people in Russia and Canada, it means they do it to anyone. Which means they can control ALL buying and selling. This is unlikely to be totally implemented before the Rapture. But it sure is uncomfortable watching this prophecy come together. 4) Russia and Iran as Enemies of Israel “Son of man, set your face toward Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh" Ezek. 38:2 Persia, Ethiopia and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Ezek. 38:5 Much has been written about the Russia/Iran invasion of Israel. This invasion appears to happen just after the Rapture and is outlined in Ezekiel 38/39. It's safe to say that this is one amazing prophecy that was written roughly 2600 years ago. Rosh/Russia and Persia/Iran are today lining up nicely as enemies of Israel. God says He will put "hooks" in their jaws and pull them into war with Israel... all in His timing. But the point is, Russia and Iran are ready to be hooked! 5) Increase in knowledge “But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase.” Dan. 12:4 One of the things that God didn't like during the building of the Tower of Babel was that people's knowledge had increased to the point God remarked: "...now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them." Gen. 11:6b The world's one language made it possible for humans to accomplish anything they desired. Satan could easily herd sinful man into elevating sin exponentially. So their language was mixed to slow humans down. Now, 4000 years later, we're back to that same point of sinful humans being able to do anything they want. The Globalists/Satanists have, to date, hacked the DNA of some 5 billion people on the planet. They changed God's design in order to reduce the world's population through premature death. They expect to blend man and machine in the future, so sinful man can live in bliss forever without needing a Savior. I think this Satanic direction qualifies for that prophecy being fulfilled. 6) Worldwide Drug Use and they did not repent of their murders nor of their sorceries Rev. 9:21 Having grown up in the 50s and 60s, I always thought that what the Bible calls "sorcery" (Greek word "Pharmakeia"), meant there would be a lot people hooked on drugs in the last days—like marijuana, heroine, cocaine, meth, etc. And I guess there is a lot of drug use these days. But sorcery/pharmakeia is actually a word connected to the dark side, so we're talking drugs from Satan that change who you are. And as we just saw, some 5 billion humans just took a fake va((ine that they likely will regret having taken. Their God-designed DNA has been permanently altered and/or damaged in this life. Not to mention the first of the four horsemen of the apocalypse at the beginning of the seven-year tribulation (Rev. 6) has drugs in this hand. (1) So, this prophecy is being fulfilled right in front of us this very day! 1) https://compass.org/a-bow-without-arrows/ 7) Israel Rediscovers Her Gold & Silver Riches We've covered this extensively in the past (1), and very few others are even talking about it. But I believe the vast treasures of silver and gold from Solomon's era will be found prior to the Ezekiel 38/39 invasion by Russia, Iran, et al. This is the treasure that Israel had 100+ years to hide from the invading Babylonians. In 1948 the list of these dazzling riches was found on a copper scroll, along with other Dead Sea scrolls written on kosher animal skins. The copper scroll lists 16 connecting caves with instructions on how they are linked. But no instructions as to where the first one is located. But when they find one, they'll find them all. This treasure, worth somewhere around $50 trillion today, would be so eye-popping that Russia will move to steal it once the Restrainer is removed at the Rapture. They are actively searching for this treasure today. Russia loses badly when they invade for the gold and silver spoils, but the Antichrist/Satan steals it at the middle of the Tribulation. ‘For behold, days are coming,’ declares the LORD, ‘when I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel and Judah.’ Jer. 30:3 The Bible says when Jesus returns at the end of the Tribulation He will restore the "fortunes" of Israel, which in the Hebrew means restore "the former state of prosperity." And ole Solomon was quite prosperous!
