You Women who are at ease

Part 3b On the 22nd of November 2002, I went up to the mountain to pray, driven strongly and with much eagerness, by the Holy Spirit to call on the Name of my God – Jesus Christ. We had seen a documentary of how God, by his servant Reynard Bonke had touched millions of Africans. For more info see "Making it double". We were moved in heart to preach the word which YHWH had revealed to us, starting in South Africa. I went out, crying out to God, asking Him to have mercy on us and to open a great and effective door to preach the gospel of life also in South Africa. I cried aloud to God, just breaking out of our inmost being. As I prayed to the Lord and wept before Him, asking Him to grant us open doors, the word of the Lord came to me: “Curse not the king, no, not even in your thoughts, and curse not the rich in your bedchamber, for a bird of the air will carry the voice, and a winged creature will tell the matter.” (Ecc 10:20) Ampl We felt disappointed that God has not yet granted our

request and wondered whether God had not seen our heart's desire and zeal for his word and His kingdom, which He had put there?

The Pride of Moab Then word of the Lord came to me, saying: "Have you not heard, have you not understood what God will do?" Three times I heard it clearly! I knew that the Lord wanted to speak to us. As I looked up into the heaven and saw in the north a sign of a one standing in Jerusalem. I heard how he crowed king in the Holy city. Out of his mouth came something like a large stream of fire or water towards the continent of Asia. A sign appeared from the Lord Yeshua to me and I saw a vision of the entire continent of Asia, the commonwealth of the independent states of Union of Soviet Socialist Republic, appeared infront of me, in the north western sky. A sign of the spirit an elephant appeared over the continent. God indicated what the elephant resembled. As I looked a stream which looked like fire it came out of the one who was standing in the north and swallowed up the entire continent, as was prophesied: 6 We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is very proud, even of his arrogance, his conceit, his wrath, his untruthful boasting. 7 Moab therefore shall wail for Moab; everyone shall wail. For the ruins, flagons of wine, and the raisin cakes of Kir-hareseth you shall sigh and mourn, utterly stricken and discouraged. 8 For the fields of Heshbon languish and wither, and the vines of Sibmah; the lords of the nations have broken down [Moab's] choice vine branches, which reached even to Jazer, wandering into the wilderness; its shoots stretched out abroad, they passed over the shores of the Dead Sea. 9 Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vines of Sibmah. I will drench you with my tears, O Heshbon and Elealeh; for upon your summer fruits and your harvest the shout of alarm and the cry of the enemy has fallen. 10 And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there is no singing, nor is there joyful sound; the treaders tread out no wine in the presses, for the shout of joy has been made to cease. 11 Wherefore my heart sounds like a harp in mournful compassion for Moab, and my inner being goes out for Kir-hareseth for those brick-walled citadels of his. 12 It shall be that when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself worshiping on the high place of idolatry, he will come to his sanctuary of Chemosh, god of Moab, but he will not prevail. Then will he be ashamed of his god. [Jer. 48:13.] 13 This is the word that the Lord has spoken concerning Moab since that time when Moab's pride and resistance to God were first known. 14 But now the Lord has spoken, saying: “Within three years, as the years of a hireling who will not serve longer than the allotted time, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, in spite of all his mighty multitudes of people; and the remnant that survives will be very small, feeble, and of no account. (Isa 16:6-14) Ampl God will punish Moab for her arrogance and because she trusted in her god, Chemosh. As I looked at the sign of the continent of Asia, I saw the southern part of the continent disappeared into the sea, up to the Himalayas. Then the word of the Lord came to me, as was prophesied: 6 Wail, for the day of the Lord is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty and Sufficient One, Shaddai, will it come. 7 Therefore will all hands be feeble, and every man's heart will melt. 8 And they shall be dismayed and terrified, pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman in childbirth. They will gaze stupefied and aghast at one another, their faces will be aflame from the effects of the unprecedented warfare. 9 Behold, the day of the Lord is coming! Fierce, with wrath and raging

anger to make the land and the whole earth desolation and to destroy out of it its sinners. 10 For the stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be darkened at its rising and the moon will not shed its light. 11 And I, the Lord, will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their guilt and iniquity; I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible and the boasting of the violent and ruthless. 12 I will make a man more rare than fine gold, and mankind scarcer than the pure gold of Ophir. 13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble; and the earth shall be shaken out of its place at the wrath of the Lord of hosts in the day of His fierce anger. 14 And like the chased roe

or gazelle, and like sheep that no man gathers, each [foreign resident] will turn to his own people, and each will flee to his own land. 15 Everyone who is found will be thrust through, and everyone who is connected with the slain and is caught will fall by the sword. 16 Their infants also will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be plundered and their wives ravished. (Isa 13:6-16) Ampl God will send a powerful army against ancient Babylon and surroundings. Men will fear at just the sight of what God is going to allow the lord of the nations to do to the continent of Asia. Elohim’s fierce anger will be released to kill all who live in these regions; He will “make a man more rare than fine gold”. At that time heavenly signs will appear in the heavens, as was prophesied by all the prophets, saying: the heavens will tremble, the earth will be shaken out of its place, stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be darkened at its rising and the moon will not shed its light. God will make the whole earth desolation.

Moab

According to Genesis 19:30-38, the ancestor of the Moabites was Lot by incest with his oldest daughter. She and her sister, having lost their fiancés and their mother in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, decided to continue their father's line through intercourse with their father. The elder got him drunk to facilitate the deed and conceived Moab. The younger daughter did the same and conceived a son named Ben-Ammi, who became ancestor to the Ammonites.

Moab occupied a plateau about 3,000 feet (910 m) above the level of the Mediterranean, or 4,300 feet (1,300 m) above the Dead Sea, and rising gradually from north to south. It was bounded on the west by the Dead Sea and

the southern section of the Jordan River; on the east by Ammon and the Arabian desert, from which it was separated by low, rolling hills; and on the south by Edom. The northern boundary varied, but in general it may be said to have been represented by a line drawn some miles above the northern extremity of the Dead Sea.

In Ezekiel xxv. 9 the boundaries are given as being marked by Beth-jeshimoth (north), Baal-meon (east), and Kiriathaim (south). That these limits were not fixed, however, is plain from the lists of cities given in Isaiah xv.-xvi. and Jeremiah xlviii., where Heshbon, Elealeh, and Jazer are mentioned to the north of Beth-jeshimoth; Madaba, Beth-gamul, and Mephaath to the east of Baalmeon; and Dibon, Aroer, Bezer, Jahaz, and Kirhareseth to the south of Kiriathaim. The principal rivers of Moab mentioned in the Bible are the Arnon, the Dimon or Dibon, and the Nimrim.

The limestone hills which form the almost treeless plateau are generally steep but fertile. In the spring they are covered with grass; and the table-land itself produces grain. In the north are a number of long, deep ravines, and Mount Nebo, famous as the scene of the death of Moses. [4] The rainfall is fairly plentiful; and the climate, despite the hot summer, is cooler than the area west of the Jordan River, snow falling frequently in winter and in spring.

The plateau is dotted with hundreds of rude dolmens, menhirs, and stone-circles, and contains many ruined villages, mostly of the Roman and Byzantine periods. The land is now occupied chiefly by Bedouin, though it contains such towns as al-Karak.

The territory occupied by Moab at the period of its greatest extent, before the invasion of the Amorites, divided itself naturally into three distinct and independent portions: The enclosed corner or canton south of the Arnon, (referred to as "field of Moab")[5] the more open rolling country north of the Arnon, opposite Jericho, and up to the hills of Gilead(called the "land of Moab")[6] and the district below sea level in the tropical depths of the Jordan valley.[7]

The Moabites were friendly with the Egyptians, having kinship ties with them through Joseph. The principal shrine in Moab was Beyt-baal-me’on, which means “house/shrine of the Baal/master/god of On.” The principal shrine of On was in the sacred city of Heliopolis in Egypt and Joseph married one of the daughters of the high priest of On. Mesha, the King of Moab, built a reservoir at Beth-baal-me’On (II Kings 3). On the Moabite or Mesha Stone (discovered in 1868 at Dibon) it is recorded that King Mesha “reigned in peace over the hundred

towns which he had added to the land. And he built Medeba and Beth-diblathen and Beth-baal-me”On, and he set there the … of the land.” The stone is defaced at this point so we do not know what the King set up, but it was likely an image of his god, Ashtar-Chemosh.

The Moabites welcomed Egyptian protection provided by a chain of border fortresses that enables Egypt to control the Sinai. One of these forts was at Ir-Moab, on the Arnon River. During Joseph’s era Egypt traded with Damascus, moving goods through Moab.

Three Horses – God’s protection in the desert wilderness of Zin After this blast on the eastern nations happened I saw a in a sign how out of the beast in the north, three horses sprang forth, as was prophesied: 3 And when He broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature call out, Come! 4 And another horse came out, flaming red. And its rider was empowered to take the peace from the earth, so that men slaughtered one another; and he was given a huge sword. (Rev 6:3-4) Ampl 5 When He broke open the third seal, I heard the third living creature call out, Come and look! And I saw, and behold, a black horse, an d in his hand the rider had a pair of scales or a balance. 6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice from the midst of the four living creatures, saying: “A quart of wheat for a denarius, a whole day's wages], and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not harm the oil and the wine! [II Kings 6:25.] (Rev 6:5-6) Ampl 7 When the Lamb broke open the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature call out, Come! 8 So I looked, and behold, an ashy pale horse, black and blue as if made so by bruising, and its rider's name was Death, and Hades, the realm of the dead, followed him closely. And they were given authority and power over a fourth part of the earth to kill with the sword and with famine and with plague, pestilence, disease and with wild beasts of the earth. [Ezek. 5:12; Hos. 13:14.] (Rev 6:7-8) Ampl

I saw the rider on the first horse and the horse, on which he was riding. The first horse had a plume on his head, resembling a certain nation in history who had this plume as it insignia. In my search for the history of the plumed horse I found that in the time of Napoleon Bonaparte, the French army mostly wore these striking red plumes as battle gear. The French army was called the Grande Armée.

The Grande Armée (French for "the Great Army" or "the Grand Army") first entered the annals of history when, in 1805, Napoleon I renamed the army that he had assembled on the

French coast of the English Channel for the proposed invasion of Britain. It never achieved its primary goal, as Napoleon had to re-deploy it East in order to eliminate the threat of Austria and Russia, which were part of the Third Coalition assembled against France.

Forces of the Grande Armée

The Imperial Guard

France's Imperial Guard (Garde Impériale) was the elite military force of its time and grew out of the Garde des Consuls and Garde Consulaire.[citation needed] It was, quite literally, a Corps d'Armée itself with infantry, cavalry and artillery divisions. Napoleon wanted it also to be an example for the entire army to follow, and a force that, since it had fought with him over several campaigns, was completely loyal. Although the infantry was rarely committed en masse, the Guard's cavalry was often thrown into battle as the killing blow and its artillery used to pound enemies prior to assaults. From a single regiment in 1800, it was steadily expanded until it was the size of a field army. Main article: Imperial Guard (Napoleon I)

Then as this sign appeared in heaven, I saw how between the one standing in Israel and the blast towards the continent of Asia, many saints appeared in the vision. Then I heard the Lord said: "As chicks under His wings the YHWH, the Lord of hosts, sheltered and protected His people in the wilderness of Zin”, according to: 3 Say to the ruler: “Give counsel, execute justice for Moab, O king of Judah; make your shade over us like night in the midst of noonday; hide the outcasts, betray not the fugitive to his pursuer. 4 Let our outcasts of Moab dwell among you; be a sheltered hiding place to them from the destroyer. When the extortion and the extortioners have been brought to naught, and destruction has ceased, and the oppressors and they who trample men are consumed and have vanished out of the land, (Isa 16:3-4) Ampl The prophet Isaiah prophecy about a time when the refugees will be hidden and protected by YHWH in the desert of Zin.

And as was prophesied by Moses, saying: 12 And the Lord said to Moses: “Go up into this mountain of Abarim and behold the land I have given to the Israelites. 13 And when you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your departed people as Aaron your brother was gathered, 14 For you disobeyed My order in the Wilderness of Zin during the strife of the congregation to uphold My sanctity by strict obedience to My authority at the waters before their eyes. These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin. (Num 27:12-14) Ampl God showed the Promised Land to Moses before He was taken away and died on the Mountain of Abarim. According to the word of the Lord to me the Lord of hosts, will hide his people in the same desert with the Moabites that was spared in that time. God people would be refugees, hiding in the vicinity of the desert Wilderness of Zin.

I saw the saints, which were caught in the middle of this great war. They were surrounded by angels, protecting them from the destroyer. Then a sign appeared in the heavens, in which the Lord Jesus, by His Spirit showed me how He himself would protect His people from this destroyer. A sign of a Lion with wings appeared in the heavens, protecting those in the cleft of the rock. Then the word of the Lord came to me according to me, saying: 11 The mournful, inspired prediction, a burden to be lifted up, concerning Dumah or Edom, One calls to me from Seir or Edom: “Watchman, what of the night? How far is it spent? How long till morning? Guardian, what of the night?” 12 The watchman said: “The morning comes, but also the night.” Another time, if Edom earnestly wishes to know, if you will inquire of me, inquire; return, come again. 13 The mournful, inspired prediction, a burden to be lifted up concerning Arabia: “In the forests and thickets of Arabia you shall lodge, O you caravans of Dedanites from northern Arabia. 14 To the thirsty bring water, O inhabitants of the land of Tema in Arabia; meet the fugitive with bread suitable for him. 15 For they have fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war, the press of battle. 16 For the Lord has said this to me: “Within a year, according to the years of a hireling, who will work no longer than was agreed, all the glory of Kedar, an Arabian tribe will fail. 17 And the remainder of the number of archers and their bows, the mighty men of the sons of Kedar, will be diminished and few; for the Lord, the God of Israel, has spoken it. (Isa 21:11-17) Ampl According to the prophet, fugitives will hide in northern Arabia. The prophet prophecy and command the Dedanites to give bread and water to those who has fled from the sword and the bow of the war in Israel. I asked the Lord how He will protect us and His people in the Desert of Arabia, while being in Tema at that time? Then signs appeared to me in the heavens. I saw the Lord poured out His wrath on the earth, because of the prayers of the saints, as was written: 1 WHEN HE the Lamb broke open the seventh seal, there was silence for about half an hour in heaven. 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 And another angel came and stood over the altar. He had a golden censer, and he was given very much incense, fragrant spices and gums, which exhale perfume when burned, that he might mingle it with the prayers of all the people of God, the saints, upon the golden altar before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense and the perfume arose in the presence of God, with the prayers of the people of God, the saints, from the hand of the angel. 5 So the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and cast it upon the earth. Then there followed peals of thunder and loud rumblings and blasts and noises, and flashes of lightning and an earthquake. (Rev 8:1-5) Ampl When the seventh seal is opened the prayers of the saints are cast on the earth, in the form of fire and God’s punishments upon all the nations of the earth is released.

The Spirit of the Lord came upon me and I prophesied allow towards the hills that was infront of me. I heard the sound of the prophecy as it echoed against the hills. Then I heard B52 bombers, coming towards the east. The Lord gave me His word to the prophet Micah, how He pleaded with Israel to repent so that God could show mercy on them, but would have none of that, saying: 1 HEAR NOW what the Lord says: “Arise, contend and plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice. 2 Hear, O mountains, the Lord's controversy, and you strong and enduring foundations of the earth, for the Lord has a controversy a pleading contention with His people, and He will pleadingly contend with Israel. 3 “O My people, what have I done to you? And in what have I wearied you? Testify against Me, answer Me! 4 For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house where you were bond servants, and I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam. 5 O My people, earnestly remember now what Balak king of Moab devised and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him; remember what the Lord did for you from Shittim to Gilgal, that you may know the righteous and saving acts of the Lord. [Num. 23:7-24; 24:3-24; Josh. 3:1; 4:19.] 6 With what shall I come before the Lord and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? 7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 8 He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? [Deut. 10:12, 13.] 9 The voice of the Lord calls to the city Jerusalem and it is sound wisdom to hear and fear Your name. Hear, heed the rod and Him Who has appointed it. 10 Are there not still treasures gained by wickedness in the house of the wicked, and a scant measure, a false measure for grain, that is abominable and accursed? 11 Can I be pure, Myself, and acquit the man with wicked scales and with a bag of deceitful weights? [I Thess. 4:6.] 12 For the city's rich men are full of violence; her inhabitants have spoken lies and their tongues are deceitful in their mouths. 13 Therefore I have also smitten you with a deadly wound and made you sick, laying you desolate, waste, and deserted because of your sins. 14 You shall eat but not be satisfied, and your emptiness and hunger shall remain in you; you shall carry away goods and those you love, but fail to save them, and those you do deliver I will give to the sword. 15 You shall sow, but not reap; you shall tread olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil, and you shall extract juice from the grapes, but not drink the wine. 16 For the statutes of idolatrous Omri you have kept, and all the works of the house of wicked Ahab, and you walk in their counsels. Therefore I will make you a desolation and an astonishment and your city's inhabitants a hissing, and you shall bear the reproach and scorn of My people.

every word that comes from the mouth of God. God will their remind them of all He had done for them in the past. He will plead His case before them, allowing them to be cleansed at the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin.

Zin Desert

The Wilderness of Zin/Desert of Zin (Hebrew: מדבר צין , Midbar Tzin) is a geographic area mentioned by the Torah as containing Kadesh-Barnea within it;[1] and it is therefore also referred to as the "Wilderness of Kadesh"[2]. Most scholars, as well as traditional sources, consequently identify this wilderness as being part of the Arabah.[3]

Similarly named is the Wilderness of Sin. Modern English translations make a distinction; but it is not easily evident from the LXX and the Vulgate that, apart from a couple of instances,[4] render both Hebrew ṣin and sîn as "Sin". The "Wilderness of Sin" is mentioned by the Bible as being adjacent to Mount Sinai; many modern scholars consider Sinai to refer to al-Madhbah at Petra, adjacent to the central Arabah, and it is thus eminently possible that the "Wilderness of Sin" and the "Wilderness of Zin" are actually the same place. See Zin Desert

The Arabah (Hebrew: ָהֲעָרָבה , HaArava; Arabic: Wādī , وادي ���Araba), also known as Aravah, is a section of the Great Rift Valley lying between the Dead Sea in the north and the Gulf of Aqaba in the south. It includes nearly half of the border between Israel to the west and Jordan to the east.

The Arabah is 166 km (103 mi) in length from the Gulf of Aqaba to the southern shore of the Dead Sea. Topographically, the region is divided into three sections. From the Gulf of Aqaba northward, the land gradually rises over a distance of 77 km (48 mi), and reaches a height of 230 m (750 ft) above sea level, which represents the watershed divide between the Dead Sea and Red Sea. From this crest, the land slopes gently northward over the next 74 km (46 mi) to a point 15 km (9.3 mi) south of the Dead Sea. In the last section, the Arabah drops steeply to the Dead Sea, which at 417 m (1,370 ft) below sea level, is the lowest point on earth (and historically falling).

In Biblical times the area was a centre of copper production; King Solomon apparently had mines here. The Arabah was home to the Edomites (Edom was called "Idumea" in Roman times). East of the Arabah was the domain of the Nabateans, the builders of the city of Petra.

Jebel al-Madhbah

Jebel al-Madhbah, ��� � Jabal al-Madhbaḥ, is a mountain at Petra, in present-day Jordan, which a , ا���number of scholars have proposed as the Biblical Mount Sinai[1], beginning with Ditlef Nielsen in 1927[2]. The mountain is colloquially known as Zibb 'Atuf, meaning penis of love in Arabic, presumably on account of the two carved obelisks located at the summit. The top 8 meters of the original peak was carved away to form the obelisks, destroying evidence of whatever earlier structures had been located there, except for hints that shiny blue slate once covered the summit[3].; the biblical description of Sinai mentions sapphire paving[4], which at that time referred to shiny blue paving, rather than paving made from what is now called sapphire[5].

The name Jebel al-Madbah means mountain of the altar, and is well deserved since its summit is covered in a number of different altars, including some that are circular, and others that are square, carved into the rock. One possible reason for Madbah being considered sacred is the fact that there have been many reports and sightings of plasma phenomena at al-Madhbah over the centuries[3], possibly equating with the dramatic biblical descriptions of devouring fire on the summit of Sinai[6]. The sacred nature of the mountain is not limited to the summit; the Treasury building, which is thought to have a ritual purpose, is carved into the mountain's base, facing the Siq; the loud trumpeting sound caused by wind funnelling down the siq is referred to by local Bedouins as the trumpet of God[3], matching the biblical description of a loud trumpet at Sinai[7].

The mountain is over a thousand meters high, but a rock staircase winds its way from the top down to the valley below; the valley in which Petra resides is known as the Wadi Musa, meaning valley of Moses. At the entrance to the Siq is the Ain Musa, meaning spring of Moses; the 13th century Arab chronicler Numairi stated was Ain Musa was Meribah, the location where Moses had brought water from the ground, by striking it with his rod. For more info see Jebel al-Madhbah.

A Great multitude against Israel, coming from the East As I looked another sign appeared in the heavens. In the western sky, appeared something like a Viking ship also looking like an old Japanese ship. I heard the roar of a multitude coming from the east according to: 11 And in the day of your planting you hedge it in, and in the morning you make your seed to blossom, yet promising as it is the harvest shall be a heap of ruins and flee away in the day of expected possession and of desperate sorrow and sickening, incurable pain. 12 Hark, the uproar of a multitude of peoples! They roar and thunder like the noise of the seas! Ah, the roar of nations! They roar like the roaring of rushing and mighty waters! 13 The nations will

rush and roar like the rushing and roaring of many waters, but God will rebuke them, and they will flee far off and will be chased like chaff on the mountains before the wind, and like rolling thistledown or whirling dust of the stubble before the storm. 14 At evening time, behold, terror! And before the morning, they, the terrorizing Assyrians are not. This is the portion of those who strip us the Jews of what belongs to us, and the lot of those who rob us. (Isa 17:11-14) Ampl Although a multitude will come up form the nations of the east, they will fall backwards. God will rebuke their trust in themselves, and will allow them to be wiped out. They will disappear like mist before the sun, like chaff before the wind. Suddenly they will be no more. See the prophecy: The Last Week of Daniel - Part 3 - The Eastern Nations Then I heard a mighty, halting screech, as the forces of the east had to fall back and return the way they came. After this the Lord also showed me a sign of the menorah falling over in the North Country of Israel. Then Lord gave me His word according to the Psalm written by Asaph: 14 You crushed the heads of Leviathan (Egypt); You did give him as food for the creatures inhabiting the wilderness. 15 You did cleave open the rock bringing forth fountains and streams; You dried up mighty, ever-flowing rivers - the Jordan. [Exod. 17:6; Num. 20:11; Josh. 3:13.] 16 The day is Yours, the night also is Yours; You have established the starry light and the sun. 17 You have fixed all the borders of the earth, the divisions of land and sea and of the nations; You have made summer and winter. 18 Earnestly remember how the enemy has scoffed, O Lord, and reproached You, and how a foolish and impious people has blasphemed Your name. 19 Oh, do not deliver the life of your turtledove to the wild beast, to the greedy multitude; forget not the life of the multitude of Your poor forever. 20 Have regard for the covenant You made with Abraham, for the dark places of the land are full of the habitations of violence. 21 Oh, let not the downtrodden return in shame; let the oppressed and needy praise Your name. 22 Arise, O God, plead Your own cause; remember earnestly how the foolish and impious man scoffs and reproaches You day after day and all day long. 23 Do not forget the clamouring voices of Your adversaries, the tumult of those who rise up against You, which ascends continually. (Ps 74:14-23) Ampl YHWH reminds His people how He saved them before from the hand of Pharaoh; how He broke the head of Leviathan; glorifying His Name through His servant Moses by the 10 plagues with which He sent to strike them. God will in the same way strike the nations once again, by the powerful hand of His servants, as was prophesied by Daniel, saying: “but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits for God.” (Dan 11:32) Ampl The prophet made a plea with God to not allow the remnant, who escaped out of Jerusalem, when her destruction is near, to be ashamed. He pleads with God to punish the nations as He had done in the time of Moses! In reply to this plea, which the prophet made, then, which we also prophetically make now, the Lord replied, by the mouth of the prophet Jeremiah, saying: 19 And I thought how gloriously and honourably I would set you among My children and give you a pleasant land, a goodly heritage, the most beautiful and best inheritance among all nations! And I thought you would call Me My Father and would not turn away from following Me.

20 Surely, as a wife treacherously and faithlessly departs from her husband, so have you dealt treacherously and faithlessly with Me, O house of Israel, says the Lord. 21 A voice is heard on the bare heights, the weeping and pleading of the sons of Israel, because they have perverted their ways, they have eagerly forgotten the Lord their God. 22 Return, O faithless sons, says the Lord, and I will heal your faithlessness. And they answer: “Behold, we come to You, for You are the Lord our God. 23 Truly in vain is the hope of salvation from the hills and from the tumult and noisy throng on the mountains; truly in and with the Lord our God rests the salvation of Israel. 24 We have been ruined as a nation by our faithlessness and idolatry for the shameful thing has consumed all for which our fathers toiled from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. 25 Let us lie prostrate in our shame, and let our dishonour and confusion cover us; for we have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers; from our youth even to this day we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God. (Jer 3:19-25) Ampl God is grieved, because although He, like a Father and husband, had loved His people Israel, they have forsaken Him. Now He will treat them as one would treat an unfaithful wife, leaving her in her shame, because she refused to turn to Him.

Then the Lord showed us how Israel was attacked out of the air like, like swallows diving in upon the ground. We saw an air attack that came on Israel. The word of the Lord came to me according to the prophet Daniël: 6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river: “How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? 7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right and his left hand toward the heavens and swore by Him Who lives forever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half a time or three and one-half years; and when they have made an end of shattering and crushing the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. (Dan 12:6-7) Ampl God revealed the exact period of time that Israel would be punished, until she is completely shattered and has no more strength left. God would allow the western nations and the eastern nations to trample her underfoot for 3.5 years, for “and even to the end there shall be war, and desolations are decreed. (Dan 9:26) Ampl

YHWH fights for the Remnant of His People After this God showed us how He would protect the remnant His people, when the Anti-Christ takes His position in Israel. God would aid them with His Presence, saying: 32b, but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits for God. 33 And they who are wise and understanding among the people shall instruct many and make them understand, though some of them and their followers shall fall by the sword and flame, by captivity and plunder, for many days. 34 Now when they fall, they shall receive a little help, (Dan 11:32-34) Ampl God will by the hand of His servants do great signs and wonders, to the glory of God.

As I looked a sign of hill appeared in the heavens. I saw God opened a way between two hills. I was reminded of the word of the Lord to the prophet Isaiah, saying: 8 And a highway shall be there, and a way; and it shall be called the Holy Way. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for the redeemed; the wayfaring men, yes, the simple ones and fools, shall not err in it and lose their way. 9 No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk on it. 10 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. (Isa 35:8-10) Ampl God will bring about great deliverance and joy to those who trust in Him during those times. The prophet spoke about the comfort that YHWH would give His people in those days, saying: 1 COMFORT, COMFORT My people, says your God. Speak tenderly to the heart of Jerusalem, and cry to her that her time of service and her warfare are ended, that her punishment is accepted and her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received punishment from the Lord's hand double for all her sins. 3 A voice of one who cries: “Prepare in the wilderness the way of the Lord clear away the obstacles; make straight and smooth in the desert a highway for our God! 4 Every valley shall be lifted and filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the crooked and uneven shall be made straight and level, and the rough places a plain. 5 And the glory, majesty and splendor of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it. (Isa 40:1-5) Ampl God prophecy by the mouth of the prophet Isaiah, saying to Israel that her warfare has ended. The nation of Israel and the Jews had only known war since the temple had been destroyed, but now God in His mercy will show mercy to the remnant of Israel that has been cleansed for her iniquity and sin. God will prepare a way in the Wilderness of Zin, opening away between two hills, thus swallowing up the torrent of destruction which the Anti-Christ will spew from His mouth, as was prophesied by the prophet Zechariah, saying: 1 BEHOLD, A day of the Lord is coming when the spoil taken from you shall be divided among the victors in the midst of you. 2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses rifled and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3 Then shall the Lord go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fought in the day of battle. 4 And His feet shall stand in that day upon the Mount of Olives, which lies before Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives shall be split in two from the east to the west by a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north and half of it toward the south. 5 And you shall flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azal, and you shall flee as you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the Lord my God shall come, and all the holy ones saints and angels with Him. [Amos 1:1; Col. 3:4; I Thess. 4:14; Jude 14, 15.] 6 And it shall come to pass in that day that there shall not be light; the glorious and bright ones the heavenly bodies shall be darkened. 7 But it shall be one continuous day, known to the Lord--not day and not night, but at evening time there shall be light. 8 And it shall be in that day that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern Dead Sea and half of them to the western Mediterranean Sea; in

summer and in winter shall it be. 9 And the Lord shall be King over all the earth; in that day the Lord shall be one in the recognition and worship of men and His name one. 10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon, the Rimmon that is south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem shall remain lifted up on its site and dwell in its place, from Benjamin's gate to the place of the First Gate, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses. 11 And it shall be inhabited, for there shall be no more curse or ban of utter destruction, but Jerusalem shall dwell securely. [Rev. 22:3.] (Zech 14:1 – 11) Ampl The prophet Zechariah saw thousands of years into the future, seeing how there will be a great earthquake in that day. He says that the Jews and those who fear God, who are in Jerusalem, will flee out of Jerusalem. Then the Lord will come with the saints. At that time will come to pass what was prophesied: 1 WHEN HE the Lamb broke open the seventh seal, there was silence for about half an hour in heaven. 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 And another angel came and stood over the altar. He had a golden censer, and he was given very much incense, fragrant spices and gums, which exhale perfume when burned, that he might mingle it with the prayers of all the people of God, the saints, upon the golden altar before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, the perfume arose in the presence of God, with the prayers of the people of God, the saints, from the hand of the angel. 5 So the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and cast it upon the earth. Then there followed peals of thunder and loud rumblings and blasts and noises, and flashes of lightning and an earthquake. 6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them. (Rev 8:1-6) Ampl At that time God will pour out His wrath full strength on the earth, He will come with the saints to punish the nations of the earth with a rod of iron, revenging the blood of His servants, answering their prayer, which will then be cast to the earth, for: “It is mine to avenge and it is mine to repay.” says the Lord Yeshua, himself will then fight against all the nations who surround Israel from every side. God will by the hand of the Destroyer – the one who sets up the abomination of desolation in the temple, strike the earth with a ban of utter destruction. Then cataclysmic changes will occur in the universe. A Cataclysmic change in the universe & 70 Years are Determined for your People. The heavenly bodies shall be darkened and it will become dark upon the earth for one whole day. The earth will suddenly be turned into a plane. By opening up the earth, God will swallow the torrent of destruction, which the Anti-Christ, will spew out of His mouth, thus protecting them from the hand of both the eastern nations and the Anti-Christ and his armies coming out of the west.

The Punishment of the Western Nations – The Beast and the False prophet As I looked over towards the south west, signs appeared to me, explaining the latter days of the indignation of God on the nations of the west. As I looked I saw how something like a huge mountain was thrown out of heaven, into the Atlantic Ocean, as was written: 8 The second angel blew his trumpet, and something resembling a great mountain, blazing with fire, was hurled into the sea. 9 And a third of the sea was turned to blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea perished, and a third of the ships were destroyed. (Rev 8:8-9) Ampl God will then punish the destroying mountain, who destroyed the earth, as was prophesied by the prophet Jeremiah saying: 15 “Behold, I am against you, says the Lord, O destroying mountain, which is burning out, you who will be as barren and desolate as an extinct volcano, you who would destroy the

whole earth. I will stretch out My hand over and against you and roll you down from the burnt crags and will make you a burnt-out mountain of combustive fires. 26 And, O Babylon, they shall not take your cracked stones for a cornerstone, or any stone for foundations, but you shall be waste and desolate forever, says the Lord. (Jer 51:25-26) Ampl See the prophecy Signs in the Heavens – Part 3 - The Smouldering Mountain Then another sign appeared in heavens. I saw a large jelly fish’s spine, looking like it fell out of heaven, as was prophesied: 10 The third angel blew his trumpet, and a huge star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it dropped on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 And the name of the star is Wormwood. A third part of the waters was changed into wormwood, and many people died from using the water, because it had become bitter. (Rev 8:10-11) Ampl Satan has been described by all the prophets and by Jesus as a fallen star, saying: 12 How have you fallen from heaven, O light-bringer and daystar, son of the morning! How you have been cut down to the ground, you who weakened and laid low the nations, O blasphemous, satanic king of Babylon! 13 And you said in your heart: “I will ascend to heaven; I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will sit upon the mount of assembly in the uttermost north. 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High. 15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol (Hades), to the innermost recesses of the pit, the region of the dead. (Isa 14:12-15) Ampl Jesus said about him: “I saw Satan falling like a lightning flash from heaven.” God will punish Satan, and his Anti-Christ, and will cast him on the earth, so that he might be destroyed. The man of lawlessness, the son of perdition, the beast, which the angel Gabriel revealed to the prophet Daniel, and said about him: 23 And at the latter end of their kingdom, when the transgressors have reached the fullness of their wickedness, taxing the limits of God's mercy, a king of fierce countenance and understanding dark trickery and craftiness shall stand up. 24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall corrupt and destroy astonishingly and shall prosper and do his own pleasure, and he shall corrupt and destroy the mighty men and the holy people, the people of the saints. [Dan. 8:9-12; II Thess. 2:3-10; Rev. 13:4-10.] 25 And through his policy he shall cause trickery to prosper in his hand; he shall magnify himself in his heart and mind, and in their security he will corrupt and destroy many. He shall also stand up against the Prince of princes, but he shall be broken and that by no human hand. [Rev. 19:19, 20.] 26 The vision of the evenings and the mornings which has been told you is true. But seal up the vision, for it has to do with and belongs to the distant future. (Dan 8:23-26) Ampl Daniel was told that his vision was for another generation, in the distant future, when the Anti-Christ, will destroy astonishing and proper in all that he does until he would be broken by God’s hand and then be cast alive into the lake of fire and brimstone.

I saw fire and brimstone raining down out of heaven from God. Then I saw a Hebrew letter, YH, appear in the fire and brimstone. I also saw in the west a large sign of the letter "J" appear in the heavens – for Jesus, the King of kings. Then I saw how fire came down upon three individuals, as was prophesied: 19 And the beast was seized and overpowered, and with him the false prophet, who in his presence had worked wonders and performed miracles by which he led astray those who had accepted or permitted to be placed upon them the stamp or mark of the beast and those who paid homage and gave divine honours to his statue. Both of them were hurled alive into the fiery lake that burns and blazes with brimstone. 21 And the rest were killed with the sword that issues from the mouth of Him Who is mounted on the horse, and all the birds fed ravenously and glutted themselves with their flesh. (Rev 19:19-21) Ampl Satan would be bound for a thousand years and then be hurled into the lake of fire also, as was prophesied: 10 Then the devil who had led them astray, deceiving and seducing them, was hurled into the fiery lake of burning brimstone, where the beast and false prophet were; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever through the ages of the ages. (Rev 20:10) Ampl The prophets were given the eyes of the Lord to see through the ages of the ages. Those things which the prophets saw were not only for their own time, but also for another time, a time yet to come in the future. YHWH, Who is outside of time, looks through time and opens up different ages to come to the prophets. They see as if through the prophetic peaks into the future. Many have interpreted the words of the prophets as to have only one fulfilment while God, who is in the spirit and Who Himself is Spirit, the Ruach or the Breath, who is like wind, can link similar time periods and prophetic types thousands of years apart from one another. The prophet Isaiah also saw these prophetic times, when God will punish the cities of east and afterwards the west, saying: 15 For behold, the Lord will come in fire, and His chariots will be like the stormy wind, to render His anger with fierceness, and His rebuke with flames of fire. 16 For by fire and by His sword will the Lord execute judgment upon all flesh, and the slain of the Lord will be many. (Isa 66:15-16) Ampl 21 And, I will also take some of them for priests and for Levites, says the Lord. 22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I make shall remain before Me, says the Lord, so shall your offspring and your name remain. 23 And it shall be that from one New Moon to another New Moon and from one Sabbath to another Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before Me, says the Lord. 24 And they shall go forth and gaze upon the dead bodies of the rebellious men who have stepped over against Me; for their worm shall not die, their fire shall not be quenched, and they shall be abhorrence to all mankind. (Isa 66:21-24) Ampl At that time God will chose some to be His kings and Priest as was revealed to the apostle John. Even Jesus’ beloved disciple also saw these same days and described them in a similar manner saying: 9 Then another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a mighty voice: “Whoever pays homage to the beast and his statue and permits the beast's stamp, mark, inscription to be put on his forehead or on his hand, 10 He too shall have to drink of the wine of God's indignation and wrath, poured undiluted into the cup of His anger; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no respite, no pause, no intermission, no rest, no peace, day or night, these who pay homage to the beast and to his image and whoever receives the stamp of his name upon him.

The prophets and the apostles spoke about these days, saying that God would pour the full strength of His power on the world. Both saw the torment of God that would ascend for ever and ever, that is the punishment of God that will now soon fall on all the nations of the east and the west who will not humble themselves and turn to Yeshua in full repentance for all idolatry and refusal to accept Yeshua as their Lord and Master, The only Messiah of the world. Let the rest of us who know him not be unaware that only ‘some’ will be taken to become kings and priests, only those who have overcome.

As I looked into the heavens the Lord showed me the three that will deceive the whole world. I heard the Lord said: "On his throne were Satan lives!" I saw the three persons. I saw the one standing towards the left. He had a long garment on and behind his head, a raised up back, like that which the pope always where. He resembled the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, the pope. Standing towards his the right, I heard one and saw the hat of a sorcerer. This one resembled the false prophet.

Standing in between these two, was a beast, having the head of a boar and the legs of man, like in ancient god – pan.

The Mitre The mitre (sometimes also spelled miter), from the Greek µίτρα, 'headband' or 'turban', is a type of headgear now known as the traditional, ceremonial head-dress of bishops and certain abbots in the Catholic Church, as well as in the Anglican Communion, some Lutheran churches, and also bishops and certain other clergy in the Eastern Orthodox churches, Eastern Catholic Churches and the Oriental Orthodox Churches. The Mitre looks very similar to the mouth of the fish god Dagon that fell on his face before the ark of the covenant of God when it was placed in the temple of Dagon. Dagon was a major northwest Semitic god, reportedly of grain and agriculture. He was worshipped by the early Amorites and by the inhabitants of the cities of Ebla and Ugarit (which was an ancient city near the Mediterranean containing a large variety of ancient writings and pagan shrines). He was also a major member, or perhaps head, of the pantheon of the Biblical Philistines.

Also according ancient pictures as can be seen, the goddess, Cybele wore a similar fish mitre. Cybele is an ancient goddess of fertility. See Cybele. God has warned us not to worship the gods of the heathen, nor to do their abominable deeds.

Nostradamus

Michel de Nostredame (14 December or 21 December 1503[1] – 2 July 1566), usually Latinised to Nostradamus, was a French apothecary and reputed seer who published collections of prophecies that have since become famous worldwide. He is best known for his book Les Propheties ("The Prophecies"), the first edition of which appeared in 1555. Since the publication of this book, which has rarely been out of print since his death, Nostradamus has attracted a following that, along with the popular press, credits him with predicting many major world events. The prophecies have in some cases been assimilated to the results of applying the alleged Bible code, as well as to other purported prophetic works.

Career as a Seer

At the age of 14, Michel was sent to study in the city of Avignon, capital of the papal enclave in Provence. There he was taught philosophy, grammar and rhetoric by Catholic priests, but in his free time, he studied the occult and astrological books in the renowned papal library. As a result, he was nicknamed "the little astrologer", and his open defence of the astrologer Copernicus alarmed his family, who were afraid it might draw attention to them. Michel did have a traumatizing experience, witnessing his nanny being burned at the stake as an accused witch; perhaps that is one reason why he was to go to great lengths eluding the Inquisitors later in his life. Michel's attentions turned once again to astrology and metaphysics. As his divining tool he employed a brass bowl, filled with water and perched on a tripod; his visions appeared to him reflected on the pool of water. An assistant described Nostradamus as descending from his study in a trance-like state following many of these visions. In 1555 he completed the Centuries, a book of more than 900 predictions about the fate of France, the world, and celebrated persons of his time. The title of the book refers to the fact that the contents are arranged in sections of 100 verses each. An expanded version was published in 1558. Nostradamus was consulted by Catherine de Medici — who shared his penchant for astrology — regarding the fate of her husband, King Henry II, as well as that of her three sons. His predictions that her husband would be killed in a joust, and that she would outlive each of her sons through their consecutive successions on the throne, were proved true. It was largely as a result of his protection by Catherine de Medici that Nostradamus was allowed to remain free to pursue his scientific studies and to publish his dire but accurate prophecies. The Sources which documented the works of Nostrudamus points out that he was very interested in the occult. See article below: “After another visit to Italy, Nostredame began to move away from medicine and toward the occult. Following popular trends, he wrote an almanac for 1550, for the first time Latinizing his name from Nostredame to Nostradamus. He was so encouraged by the almanac's success that he decided to write one or more annually. Taken together, they are known to have contained at least 6,338 prophecies,[2][10] as well as at least eleven annual calendars, all of them starting on 1 January and not, as is sometimes supposed, in March. It was mainly in response to the almanacs that the nobility and other prominent persons from far away soon

started asking for horoscopes and "psychic" advice from him, though he generally expected his clients to supply the birth charts on which these would be based, rather than calculating them himself as a professional astrologer would have done. When obliged to attempt this himself on the basis of the published tables of the day, he always made numerous errors, and never adjusted the figures for his clients' place or time of birth.[4][6] (Refer to the analysis of these charts by Brind'Amour, 1993, and compare Gruber's comprehensive critique of Nostradamus’ horoscope for Crown Prince Rudolph Maximilian.)[11]

Most academic sources maintain that the associations made between world events and Nostradamus's quatrains are largely the result of misinterpretations or mistranslations, sometimes deliberate or else are so tenuous as to render them useless as evidence of any genuine predictive power. Moreover, none of the sources listed offers any evidence that anyone has ever interpreted any of Nostradamus's quatrains specifically enough to allow a clear identification of any event in advance.[2]

God is testing our commitment Nostradamus was nothing but a wizard and a sorcerer. His prophecies are based on alchemy and astrology, which is the worship of the earth and the stars. Many, even Christians, who do not know the power of the Holy Spirit, run after this sorcerer’s prophecies. Many say: “But how could one be so accurate,” because of the seemingly, accurate prophecies this wizard made. God is testing and sifting all to see, if they will worship Him and Him alone, as is written: 1 If a prophet arises among you, or a dreamer of dreams, and gives you a sign or a wonder, 2 And the sign or the wonder he foretells to you comes to pass, and if he says: “Let us go after other gods--gods you have not known--and let us serve them, 3 You shall not listen to the words of that prophet or to that dreamer of dreams. For the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your mind and heart and with your entire being. 4 You shall walk after the Lord your God and reverently fear Him, and keep His commandments and obey His voice, and you shall serve Him and cling to Him. 5 But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has talked rebellion and turning away from the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of bondage; that man has tried to draw you aside from the way in which the Lord your God commanded you to walk. So shall you put the evil away from your midst. (Deut 13:1-5) Ampl This man, who made seemingly accurate prophesies, are nothing but a sorcerer, and is teaching rebellion against YHWH and the Name of Yeshua, throwing many into doubt and confusion, du to their ignorance, making people worship other gods. For God said about the sorcerers in the land: 9 “When you come into the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of these nations. 10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or daughter pass through the fire, or who uses divination, or is a soothsayer, or an augur, or a sorcerer, 11 Or a charmer, or a medium, or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12 For all who do these things are an abomination to the Lord, and it is because of these abominable practices that the Lord your God is driving them out before you. 13 You shall be blameless and absolutely true to the Lord your God. 14 For these nations whom you shall dispossess listen to soothsayers and diviners. But as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do so. 15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet from the midst of your brethren like me

Moses; to him you shall listen. (Deut 18:9-15) Ampl God hates these practices and will punish them as was prophesied by the prophet Malachi, saying: 1 BEHOLD, I send My messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me. And the Lord the Messiah, Whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; the Messenger or Angel of the covenant, Whom you desire, behold, He shall come, says the Lord of hosts. 2 But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap; 3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and He will purify the priests, the sons of Levi, and refine them like gold and silver, that they may offer to the Lord offerings in righteousness. 4 Then will the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in ancient years. 5 Then I will draw near to you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against the false swearers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, and who turn aside the temporary resident from his right and fear not Me, says the Lord of hosts. (Mal 3:1-5) Ampl Yeshua himself will punish all those who have gone after other gods and put their trust in them. Then the word of the Lord came to me regards their judgement from God after they have defiled God’s house, according to the prophet Ezekiel: 8 Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I, even I, am against you, and I will execute judgments in the midst of you in the sight of the nations. 9 And because of all your abominations, I will do in you that which I have not done and the like of which I will never do again. [Lam. 4:6; Dan. 9:12; Amos 3:2.] 10 Therefore fathers shall eat their sons in your midst, and sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments on you and all who are left of you I will scatter to all the winds.” [Lev. 26:33; Deut. 28:64; Ezek. 12:14; Zech. 2:6.] 11 Therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, surely because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your detestable things and with all your abominations, therefore will I also diminish you and withdraw My eye that it shall not spare you. And I also will have no pity. 12 And a third of you shall die of pestilence and be consumed by famine in the midst of you; a third shall fall by the sword round about you; and I will scatter a third to all the winds and will draw out a sword after them. 13 Thus shall My anger be spent and I will cause My wrath toward them to rest and I will be eased and comforted. And they shall know, understand, and realize that I the Lord have spoken in My zeal, when I have accomplished My wrath upon them. [Ezek. 36:6; 38:19.] 14 Moreover, I will make you a desolation and a reproach among the nations that are round about you and in the sight of all who pass by. [Lev. 26:31, 32; Neh. 2:17.] 15 So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, a warning and a horror and an astonishment to the heathen nations around you when I shall execute judgments upon you in anger and in wrath and in furious chastisements and rebukes. I the Lord have spoken it. [Deut. 28:37; Ps. 79:4; Jer. 24:9.] 16 When I shall loose against them the evil arrows of hunger that are for destruction, which I will send to destroy you, then I will increase the famine upon you and will break your staff of bread. 17 And I will send upon you hunger and wild beasts, and they shall bereave you of your loved ones; and pestilence and blood shall pass through you, and I will bring the sword upon you. I the Lord have spoken it. (Ezek 5:8-17) Ampl YHWH cursed all who worship other gods, or who say they worship Him by worshipping other gods. Therefore, the unrelenting curse of YHWH will be

released upon all who had worshipped other gods. Although this prophecy is a direct prophecy to the nation of Israel, the Jews, yet “so it shall be a reproach and a taunt, a warning and a horror and an astonishment to the heathen nations” and all who refuse to repent of their idolatrous ways of worshipping other gods, which is Satanic worship. Then the word of the Lord came to me again, according to the word of the prophet Isaiah, saying: 30 And the Lord shall cause His glorious voice to be heard and the descending blow of His arm to be seen, coming down with indignant anger and with the flame of a devouring fire, amid crashing blast and cloudburst, tempest, and hailstones. 31 At the voice of the Lord the Assyrians will be stricken with dismay and terror, when He smites them with His rod. 32 And every passing stroke of the staff of punishment and doom which the Lord lays upon them shall be to the sound of Israel's timbrels and lyres, when in battle He attacks with swinging and menacing arms. 33 For Topheth, a place of burning and abomination has already been laid out and long ago prepared; yes, for the Assyrian king and the god Molech it has been made ready, its pyre made deep and large, with fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, kindles it. [Jer. 7:31, 32; Matt. 5:22; 25:41.] (Isa 30:30-33) Ampl Then Lord himself, with all His power and might will punish with “flame of a devouring fire, amid crashing blast and cloudburst, tempest, and hailstones.” He will smite will the rod of iron until that which are rebellious towards Him are destroyed. He will also strike the Anti-Christ and the false prophet until none is left of them and their abominable systems of idolatry and sun worship Again as I looked back towards the far western side of the continent of Asia, I saw how one raised up out of Asia. Then a sign of an "i" appeared in the heavens. This sign was an “I” instead of an "I" for Immanuel, as was prophesied: “Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: “Behold, the young woman who is unmarried and a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel - God with us. [Isa. 9:6; Jer. 31:22; Mic. 5:3-5; Matt. 1:22, 23.] (Isa 7:14) Ampl The prophet saw into the distant future, saying that another king will come, whom the Lord calls: “immaneul” This is the wicked king of Assyria, the one who will claim that he is a god, thus putting himself in the place of God, as was prophesied: 17 The Lord shall bring upon you and upon your people and upon your father's house such days as have not come since the day that Ephraim, the ten northern tribes, departed from Judah - even the king of Assyria. 18 And in that day the Lord shall whistle for the fly, the numerous and troublesome foe, that is in the whole extent of the canal country of Egypt and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. 19 And these enemies like flies and bees shall come and shall rest all of them in the desolate and rugged valleys and deep ravines and in the clefts of the rocks, and on all the thornbushes and on all the pastures. 20 In the same day will the people of Judah be utterly stripped of belongings, the Lord will shave with the razor that is hired from the parts beyond the River Euphrates - even with the king of Assyria, that razor will shave the head and the hair of the legs, and it shall also consume the beard leaving Judah with open shame and scorn. [II Kings 16:7, 8; 18:13-16.] (Isa 7:17-20) Ampl God will allow the Assyrians, a nation coming up out of the east and out of Egypt, coming up like flies and bees, to plunder Israel, by the hand of the Assyrian king. God will allow an alliance of nations coming up out of the east, including Egypt to come against Israel, shaving off the hair of their

trust, shaming them, who trusted in Kabala. This nation of people worships another god, whom they put in the place of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, calling their god Allah, the god of the Muslims. After this the word of the Lord came to me, I saw a demonic beast, which gave up its spirit, according to the word of the Lord to the prophet Nahum, saying: 12 All your fortresses are fig trees with early figs; if they are shaken they will fall into the mouth of the eater. 13 Behold, your troops in the midst of you are as weak and helpless as women; the gates of your land are set wide open to your enemies without effort; fire consumes your bars. 14 Draw for yourself the water necessary for a long continued siege, make strong your fortresses! Go down into the clay pits and trample the mortar; make ready the brick kiln to burn bricks for the bulwarks! 15 But there in the very midst of these preparations will the fire devour you; the sword will cut you off; it will destroy you as the locusts destroy. Multiply yourselves like the licking locusts; make yourselves many like the swarming locusts! 16 You increased your merchants more than the visible stars of the heavens. The swarming locust spreads itself and destroys, and then flies away. 17 Your princes are like the grasshoppers and your marshals like the swarms of locusts, which encamp in the hedges on a cold day, but when the sun rises, they fly away, and no one knows where they are. 18 Your shepherds are asleep, O king of Assyria; your nobles are lying still in death. Your people are scattered on the mountains and there is no one to gather them. 19 There is no healing of your hurt; your wound is grievous. All who hear the news about you clap their hands over what has happened to you. For upon whom has not your unceasing evil come continually? (Nah 3:12-19) Ampl Although the armies of the Assyrian king and his princes are as many as locusts, seeming fearless, God will devour them by an eater, the Anti-Christ, who will consume them with fire, suddenly wiping them out. Who are these women whom the prophet refers to in his prophecy, saying that they would become like weak helpless women? As I looked at the continent of Asia I could only see smoke rising out of the place where India used to be according to the prophet Isaiah: 23 And it shall be that from one New Moon to another New Moon and from one Sabbath to another Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before Me, says the Lord. 24 And they shall go forth and gaze upon the dead bodies of the rebellious men who have stepped over against Me; for their worm shall not die, their fire shall not be quenched, and they shall be an abhorrence to all mankind. (Isa 66:21-24) Ampl Again the Lord gave yet another confirmation of those things, which the prophets have seen, regards the final punishment of the nations of the east and God’s judgement that would be poured out upon them by the hand of the Anti-Christ. As I looked, a sign of the continent of Asia appeared. I saw how out of the continent of Asia came roaring and thundering waves, towards the north country of Israel. Then the word of the Lord came to me, explaining even that which the prophets have seen regarding these days, saying: 10 I saw, and behold, there was a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great. 11 The tree grew and was strong and its height reached to the heavens, and the sight of it reached to the end of the whole earth. 12 Its leaves were fair and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all. The living creatures of the field found shade under it, and the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches; and all flesh was fed from it. 13 I saw in the visions of my

head as I lay on my bed, and behold, a watcher, a holy one, came down from heaven. 14 He cried aloud with might and said: “Cut down the tree and cut off its branches; shake off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the living creatures flee from under it and the fowls from its branches. 15 Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, bound with a band of iron and bronze, in the midst of the tender grass of the field. Let him be wet with the dew of the heavens, and let him share the lot of the living creatures in the grass of the earth. (Dan 4:10-15) Ampl God had decreed and sent a watcher to command that the kingdom of Babylon be cut down. YHWH also said to leave the root of Bronze and Iron in the ground. During that time king Nebuchadnezzar was cut down, and the after him the kingdoms of Greece and Rome came, but they were only a type of things to come. Now YHWH, by the mouth of His servants, to his prophets, revealed that the alliance of nations, coming form the west of the continent Asia, which the prophet calls Assyrians, are the Muslim nations that will be cut down at the decree of Elohim, YHWH of Hosts. After all this, we worshipped the Lord Yeshua for all that He had taught us and all that He had opened to us, so that the world may know the certainty of the things that will now come to pass in our generation. As we left the Lord gave me a final word, saying: 2 It seemed good to me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God has performed toward me. 3 How great are His signs! And how mighty His wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His dominion is from generation to generation. (Dan 4:2-3) Ampl Praise the Lord Jesus Christ, Who knows the hearts of the kings and princes; Who alone determines the out come of the battle. He understands the sinister schemes of the wicked, that they will come to nothing.

The Women who are at Ease? God showed the prophet Isaiah a nation and a people who would come up against the nation of Israel, who will be drawn into an alliance with the Muslims and the Egyptians. Then the Lord told the prophet to prophecy to this nation, who is so confident in their multitudes, saying: 9 Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice, you confident and careless daughters! Listen to what I am saying! 10 In little more than a year you will be shaken with anxiety, you careless and complacent women; for the vintage will fail, and the ingathering will not come. 11 Tremble, you women who are at ease! Shudder with fear, you complacent ones! Strip yourselves bare and gird sackcloth upon your loins in grief! (Isa 32:9-11) Ampl The prophet sees women, whom he sees looking very complacent and arrogant in their strength and in their numbers. YHWH commands him to prophecy to these women so that they would rise up and storm into battle. God shows the prophet that these women are careless, but, that within a year and some days, they will be shaken in anxiety and fear. Who are these women?

Early East Asian Hairstyle Around the seventeenth century, the Manchu people forced all men in China to adopt a hairstyle called a queue, which was basically a long braid down the back with the hair on the front part of the head shaved. This style lasted well into the nineteenth century,

when the Chinese began immigrating to America. Americans at first judged them to be poor workers because their long hair brought an association with women. The queue is a hairstyle in which the hair is worn long and gathered up into a ponytail. The Chinese queue was a specific hairstyle worn by the Manchus from central Manchuria and later imposed on the Chinese in China. The hairstyle consisted of the hair on the front of the head being shaved off above the temples and the rest of the hair braided into a long ponytail, or queue. For more info see the Queue & See the prophecy: The Last Week of Daniel - Part 3 - The Eastern Nations The women who are at ease are the East Asian nations of China and Mongolia, who come up against Israel, against the Western Anti-Christ or the Beast. In conclusion: The Apostle John saw a great army that will be coming up from the east, to make war, as is written: 12 Then the sixth angel emptied his bowl on the mighty river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to make ready a road for the coming of the kings of the east, from the rising sun. [Isa. 11:15, 16.] 13 And I saw three loathsome spirits like frogs, leaping from the mouth of the dragon and from the mouth of the beast and from the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For really they are the spirits of demons that perform signs wonders, miracles. And they go forth to the rulers and leaders all over the world, to gather them together for war on the great day of God the Almighty. (Rev 16:12-14) Ampl When the eastern nations come up against Israel, coming up like a vast army out of the continent of Asia, know that this the beginning of the Armageddon war and the time that the continent of Asia will be wiped out. This is the time of Jacob’s trouble. At that time the apostle is said to say to all who wait eagerly for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ: 15 Behold, I am going to come like a thief! Blessed, happy, to be envied is he who stays awake, alert and who guards his clothes, so that he may not be naked and have the shame of being seen exposed! 16 And they gathered them together at the place which in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
