Arab League Joins

Yes....lots of buzzing about Psalm 83... But movement just seems to be happening so fast!! How can you NOT watch??

So last week, Lebanon said that if Hezbollah or Syria get in a fight with Israel...they will join their Arab cousins to fight the Jews.

Today is this announcement;
Arab League chief Amr Mussa said on Thursday that Arab countries would stand by Lebanon if it were attacked by Israel, adding that the situation between the two countries is tense.

So now we have the Arab league stepping up and signing onto the Psalm 83 coalition. Is it any wonder that prophecy watchers are saying that Psalm 83 is "likely" to happen in 2010?

Friends....can you imagine a more exciting time to be alive and witness to these incredible events?

Prophesies Soon Fulfilled?

At Bible study last night we were talking about Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38. Some at the study weren't familiar with these prophesies...and their potential fulfillment that may be happening soon.

Today, Jan Markell commented that she also believes these events are drawing close.

"Frankly I believe 2010 is going to see some of the predicted wars that have not yet happened," she comments. "I do think that the Psalm 83 war could take place in 2010."

China Losing Appetite for Dollars

What was it that enabled the U.S. to spend way more money than it took in over the past decade? Of course we know the answer....that other countries stood ready to loan us the money. Simple.

And who was one of the largest lenders?....China.

Yesterday we found that China has been trimming it's U.S. bond holdings which has resulted in Japan being the top foreign holder of U.S. debt.

Today we have this headline;
Jitters over China’s waning taste for T-bills

As the biggest and most liquid pool of assets in the world, the US Treasury market lies at the heart of the global financial system and allows the American government to finance its trillion-dollar budget deficits. Until recently, China has been the largest foreign official holder of US debt.

And even if China is shifting out of US Treasuries, it would not necessarily cause trouble in the market as long as other buyers step into the breach. Indeed, US Treasury yields remain well inside last summer’s peaks as other countries have stepped up their buying.

Did you catch that?? "...as long as other buyers step in...." Question....what happens if no other buyers step in? Does the whole Ponzi scheme unravel in a really fast WHOOOSH!!

As we talked about last night....America is no where to be found in Biblical prophecy. Where did this great nation go...and why?

Dubai Killing

Don't know if y'all caught it in the news yet, but if you didn't...if appears that a hit squad was sent to Dubai to kill the #2 guy from Hamas. (They rule the Gaza strip) Further, it appears that it may have been the Mossad (CIA of Israel) that did it. Of course Israel won't comment....just like the CIA wouldn't comment on any Russian hits we would have done during the Cold War.

Of course, if Israel DID do this assassination...they are sending a message to Hamas that no matter where you go in the world...we can get you.

And of course, this could further deteriorate relations between Israel and London....because the hit squad used cloned UK passports to get into Dubai.

Britain's relations with Israel are entering a period of crisis over the apparent use of cloned UK passports in the assassination of a Hamas official in Dubai. But ties were already under strain because of differences over the Middle East peace process.

Tensions between London and Jerusalem have increased markedly since Binyamin Netanyahu's far-right government came to power last year after deteriorating sharply during the war in Gaza, in which 1,400 Palestinians and 11 Israelis were killed.

Watch for the countries of the world to turn against Israel....just as the Bible says.

Deficit Panel

Oh boy!! This is truly exciting news!! Obama is going to create another blue ribbon panel to try and figure out how the U.S. is going to deal with it's spending problem.

The deficit spiked to an extraordinary $1.4 trillion last year and could top that figure this year as the struggling economy puts a big dent in tax revenues. Even worse from the perspective of economists and deficit hawks, the medium-term deficit picture is for deficits to hit around $1 trillion a year for the foreseeable future.
Obama and his economic team have said repeatedly that this is not sustainable. He told lawmakers during his State of the Union address that he would go around their vote and appoint a version of a deficit commission.

Obama's version of the commission is a weak substitute for what he really wanted: a panel created by Congress that could force lawmakers to consider unpopular remedies to reduce the debt, including curbing politically sensitive entitlements like Social Security and Medicare.

Read it here; http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/02/16/obama-appoint-deficit-commission/

This idea sounds familiar...Hmmm??....where have I heard this one before??? Oh yeah!! It was Ronald Reagan who appointed a commission 28 years ago to tell us Social Security would be insolvent in 30 years....unless serious changes were made.

Darn it!! I wish someone would have listened to that panel 28 years ago.

Nothing Like It

It seems something strange is coming in the sky towards planet earth.

While scientists don't think it's a comet, they're not exactly sure of the precise origin of the incredible object soaring some 90 million miles from Earth, snapped just a few weeks ago by the Hubble Space Telescope.

"I've seen thousands of astronomical images over my
career, but this is one of the few absolute jaw-droppers: A flying X-pattern with trailing streamers," said Ray Villard, a contributing writer to Discovery News. "Whatever it is, nothing quite like it has ever before been seen in the heavens."

Personally, I have no idea what this is or what it might be. What I do know is that the Bible says there will be great signs in the sky during the Tribulation period....could this be a foreshadowing?

Could this be simply one more sign that God is using to try and wake up the Children of the Light to say, "Get ready! Get sober! I'm at the very gate! The archangel's lips are on the trumpet!"

Japan Passes China

We all know that China holds a boat load of U.S. debt. And now it seems that someone else has surpassed them....Japan!

What could this mean? We know Japan is in tragic financial condition...if they unravel and can't make their payments...could they cash in their U.S. debt and demand payment from us? And if the U.S. can't refinance that debt...then what happens?

I remember setting up dominoes as a kid.....

Mark of the Beast Draws Closer

God's Word is very clear that during the Great Tribulation, people will need to have some mark on their right hand or forehead that links them to the global-financial-system. You can find this passage in Revelation 13:16

Since we know the Tribulation is close, we are continuing to watch for movement towards things that will happen....because it gives us an urgency that the rapture of the church must happen first. As Missler says, "When you see the decorations start to go up for Christmas....you know Thanksgiving must be close."

So here is a big one that seems to be coming out of Greece. Let's remember that Greece is near bankruptcy and default on its debt...so the powers of this world never want to waste a good crisis...which means they will always try and grab a bit more power and control whenever a crisis presents itself.

"From 1. Jan. 2011, every transaction above 1,500 euros between natural persons and businesses, or between businesses, will not be considered legal if it is done in cash. Transactions will have to be done through debit or credit cards"

Read it here; http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSLDE61824V20100209

Did you catch that? It will be ILLEGAL to buy things with cash! Instead, YOU MUST use a debit or credit card. And as we all know, every time we swipe a card...all of our info of what, where, when and how we purchased something becomes a permanent record on our permanent file.

Using cash or barter is really the ONLY way left to purchase if you want to stay off the grid. And now Greece will be the first country to make cash purchases illegal.

Are you connecting the dots folks? Does this quicken your hearts because we know that our glorified bodies and our Savior are drawing close? It should.

Hat tip to Bob K.

U.S. Department of Peace

OK folks...before you go to this site and start listening to Walter Cronkite endorse this Department of Peace....please fasten you vomit bags securely around your neck.

Jan Markell had sent out the heads up on this new department that some 250 Congressmen have already endorsed...so I went to the site to look around. Of course it is playing right into the hands of the spirit of Antichrist to formulate a one world government that will start off with a peace agreement.

So I clicked on the Walter Cronkite link to see what this trusted, U.S. icon had to say;
http://www.thepeacealliance.org/content/view/170/465/

Did you hear Walter say, "One conscious effort...where true safety lies." He seems to believe that if we can have a new Peace Department that violence in schools will vanish, crime in the streets will come to a halt...and more importantly, the world will want to join us in our peace parade.

This world is getting so wacky it is starting to feel like we are living in the Twilight Zone.

Also notice that Jan Markell points out that Oprah and Marianne Williamson are some powers behind this peace movement;

But who is the unofficial ambassador for all of this? Famous "New Ager" Marianne Williamson whose "Course in Miracles" has deceived so many people over the years. This seductive, "new spirituality" book was hyped by Oprah Winfrey every day in 2009 on Oprah's Internet outlet. Winfrey continues to be a major player in this movement. She is a guru in the shadows providing a platform for every form of deception and delusion imaginable. And millions swallow her Kool-Aid as though all of her words and her guests represent gospel truth.

No doubt, the world is going to run toward peace and anyone who promises that he can attain it. But while people are saying "Peace and safety", then destruction will come on them suddenly....says God.

Remember, Jesus said VERY clearly that there WILL BE wars and rumors of wars....right up until the day He returns to usher in the Millenium. For man to pretend we can create our own Peace Garden here on earth...is the height of arrogance.

Anti Aircraft System Countdown

We have been watching the progress for a few years. Iran wants an anti-aircraft defense system...and they want a really good one made by Russia called the S-300.

In and of itself...that doesn't sound unreasonable. So what's the problem?

The problem is that it will put Israel on a VERY FAST DECISION TRACK as they decide if they need to take military action against Iran. Obviously hitting Iran's nuke facilities will be much more difficult if this system gets installed.

And by this headline today...the stop watch may be ticking fast;
Russia commits to deliver S-300 system to Iran

Read it here; http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=118637&sectionid=351020101

Question....Is it interesting to anyone else that this whole Iran thing may come to a head about the exact time Jews get ready to celebrate the book of Esther...which is a story about the first time God delivered Israel from Persia? I honestly don't know if it's interesting to anyone else, or is just a passing thought....so feel free to leave comments.

Terror Attack "90 Days at Most"

It should come as no surprise to any of us that terrorists haven't quit trying to destroy American targets. Our war on terror has probably served to disrupt most of the plans...plus we have had a certain amount of "luck"....like when the underwear bomber couldn't make his pants go "boom!"

But this article is interesting because this Israeli terrorist expert is saying that a major terror attack is coming for America...and it is imminent.

I predict, based primarily on information that is floating in Europe and the Middle East, that an event is imminent and around the corner here in the United States. It could happen as soon as tomorrow, or it could happen in the next few months. Ninety days at the most.

He then goes onto say that the airports and airline passengers have become so awake to terrorists, that terrorists are now looking for other targets.

What they’re going to do is hit six, seven or eight cities simultaneously to show sophistication and really hit the public. This time, which is the message of the day, it will not only be big cities. They’re going to try to hit rural America. They want to send a message to rural America: "You’re not protected. If you figured out that if you just move out of New York and move to Montana or to Pittsburgh, you’re not immune. We’re going [to] get you wherever we can and it’s easier there than in New York."

Read it here; http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,161962,00.html

Wow!! We have understood for quite some time that if terrorists started blowing up one mall per week for 3 - 4 weeks in a row....they could effectively stop the shopping habits of all Americans...which would decimate our financial recovery and our financial system.

Please remember friends....the Holy Spirit is not a spirit of fear and confusion. When these terrifying things do come, (and they will), let's be pillars of light and confidence so we can help the Holy Spirit snatch people from the fire.
