“And what I say to you, I say to all: WATCH!”
Mark 13:37
God’s prophetic word is falling into place. These are some of the geo-political areas to be watching.
Most of the “NEWS” that is bombarding the anxious people of earth lacks truth from a biblical perspective. Be careful what and who you listen to, guard your heart and don’t waste your strength and time on man-made false predictions from too much screen time.
The following are bullet points of the most recent developments:
ISRAEL
Israel continues to thrive under pressure both economically and strategically in spite (and probably because) of the pain and hardships of this extended season of war. Many hearts have grown tender under the hardships of the hour and are drawn closer to the Lord God of Israel.
The Arab Middle East on the other hand is sinking deeper and deeper into chaos, political disintegration, and economic disasters with no end in sight. Up to this point, international agreements among Israel’s enemies are proving meaningless as the only substantial keys for security and peace in the Middle East are military supremacy and economical viability.
IRAN
We have been watching the war events centered on Iran and its regime since February 28 for six months, waiting for escalation or an agreement.
The Strait of Hormuz was mostly closed from March 2 to August 23 or so, being about 175 days. The Strait is sporadically open, and often still under the control of the Iranian regime.
As of today, the Strait seems to be officially closed again and has now been closed for four (4) days. Marinetraffic.com still shows only a few ships going through the Strait at the moment.
As a result of President Trump’s military and economic pressure, Iran is falling apart internally with hyperinflation and acute shortages of food, water, and fuel. With weakening control mechanisms (money, force, and political favoritism) over the vast population, Tehran is losing control of the large ethnic minorities that make up more than half of Iran’s population.
It’s only a matter of time before these armed and independent minorities will revolt against the Mullahs and their private IRGC military machine. With depleting resources, Iran’s massive support for Hamas and Hezbollah is also dwindling. Pray for the persecuted church in Iran and that the Lord will raise up leaders to support the Body of Christ.
HAMAS
Hamas in Gaza is refusing to give up its arms in compliance with the international agreement it has signed, and rather continues to challenge Israeli forces on the new border fence. Every day terrorists are eliminated who are just itching to become “shahids,” martyrs for Allah. In spite of the West’s hopeful delusions, Hamas will not be transformed into a “peaceful political movement” and it’s difficult to think Gaza will ever be rebuilt into a new “Mediterranean Riviera.”
More likely, Gaza will remain in ruins as a memorial to the fate of those who rise up to destroy Israel. We pray for the miserable and oppressed Arabs who call Gaza their home and who’s entire life has been bound to the false hope of invading and possessing the Covenant Land of Israel for Allah.
HEZBOLLAH
Hezbollah in Lebanon is the same. It will never disarm on its own, and the weak Lebanese Army is unable and unwilling to disarm it. According to international agreement, as long as Hezbollah remains armed and poses danger to Israeli civilians, Israel is free to act decisively in Lebanon.
In fact, now that IDF forces are controlling all of Southern Lebanon to the Litani River and the Hermon Mountain Top, they are discovering that ALL of what used to be “Southern Lebanon” is interwoven with massive underground networks of terror tunnels.
Israel is dealing with a demonized people group, and IDF forces are daily eliminating Hezbollah terrorists that refuse to evacuate their positions, dismantling weapon caches and missiles that threaten Israeli communities, and blowing up miles of newly discovered terror tunnels. It’s unlikely Israel will ever give these territories back, no matter the international displeasure and complaints.
SAUDI ARABIA
Saudi Arabia and the rest of the Arab Oil Kingdoms on the Straits of Hormuz are in chaos, experiencing sharp economical declines and a leadership vacuum. Their corrupt regimes are unable to deal with the looming crisis, and their economies (which are entirely based upon oil and gas exports) are falling apart.
Qatar, the main exporter of radical Islam to the world’s universities and progressive elites, has cut down its “Foreign Budget” (used for bribes and buying influence) by nearly 80%! The gig is up; the gravy train is over; and the West may soon be able to make up its own troubled mind without being bought and manipulated by dirty Arab money.
MUSLIM INVASION
The Muslim invasion of illegals into European territory is expanding from day to day, yet the media is hiding most of these stories. Tens of thousands of (mostly) young Muslim men are being bussed, trucked, and sailed into Spanish territories daily, and the local authorities are helpless. By now not only the City of Ceuta serves as the key beachhead of this uncontrollable invasion, but speed boats loaded with Muslim Africans are freely landing on the shores of mainland Spain from Algiers with no one stopping them.
The progressive laws of the European Union are permitting this insanity as Red Cross workers and local naive volunteers meet these illegals with bags of food and bottles of water and process them into “transitional concentration camps.” From there, according to the EU laws, they will be able to move freely into any EU nation, sucking on local social benefits and harassing the native populations.
As laid out in Bible prophecy, we’re watching the Islamic siege of Europe. The battle for the destiny of the continent is raging. Europe is asleep and going under and with it goes the false notion of a ‘revived Roman empire.’
Bible prophecy calls for the revival of the Islamic empire in the last days. It’s happening now… don’t you see it? It’s gripping Europe by the throat and coming into America like a tidal wave. Wake up world. Wake up America! Wake up church! Islam is the greatest danger to the Church in the world today and will grow in power and impact to become God’s chief force for judgment during the 7-year Tribulation!
While the authorities hide the real numbers, recent surveys revealed that nearly 40% of the French population 18 years and younger are keeping the Ramadan Muslim holiday. Similar numbers are found in England and other European nations. When the young population is disproportionately Muslim at such insane levels, you know that, barring a movement of God or a constitutional revival, the demographic battle is over.
These nations, for all practical purposes, could be considered Euro-Muslim countries. The rest of the West should take notice before, as PM Benjamin Netanyahu says, “”the Islamic Republic of Britain” becomes a reality.
We pray for and with the Church in Europe, the USA, and other nations, as the battle for their destiny cannot be ignored or avoided any longer.
RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR
This demonic war is far from over, and a “stray” Russian missile recently exploded in Romanian territory. “Naughty Russians… shame on you. You’d better aim your missiles more accurately next time.”
Russia is currently trying to rebuild its army and weapon arsenal, and European sources are warning of upcoming pinpointed incursions into east European nations and aerial assaults to test NATO’s resolve. In fact, Moscow just issued a stern warning to England that it will come under Russian attack if Ukraine continues to use British weapons against Russian targets.
This war could spread and get worse before things get better.
The battle from the Israel hating nations and Israel’s right to live in the ‘Promised Land’ will continue to intensify until the Lord’s return. As the Scripture commands us,
“Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” Says your God. Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned;
For she has received from the LORD’s hand double for all her sins.”
(Isaiah 40).

The restrainer is holding back the flood, but not for much longer.
There is so much happening right now that it is almost impossible to keep up.
Israel, Iran, Gaza, Hamas, Lebanon, Hezbollah, Russia, Ukraine, NATO, Turkey rising, anti-Israel attacks, chemical explosions, disease outbreaks, oil disruptions, Board of Peace deals, war rumors, and global instability all hitting at the same time.
And people still want to act like everything is normal.
It’s not normal. Normal isn’t coming back. Jesus is!
The world is turning against Israel at an alarming pace, just as prophesied in Scripture in preparation for the rise of the Antichrist.
The nations are desperate for “peace and safety,” and that is exactly the atmosphere Paul warned about in 1 Thessalonians 5:3.
“When they shall say peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes upon them.”
Daniel 9:27 is one of the most important verses in Bible prophecy. It indicates that Antichrist does not necessarily create the 7-year covenant, but it infers that he confirms or strengthens the covenant for one week [7-year Tribulation].
That means that when Antichrist gains control of the 10-King empire, he will step up to agree to terms already in place regarding Israel and the Palestinian State. He makes firm an agreement that has already being shaped and in put place.
The framework is being prepared now. Sometimes we can see it clearly, sometimes not.
After the Church is removed, Antichrist will step in and agree to the terms that we’re watching be put into place today, making it look like he has the answer.
But he is not the answer. He is the counterfeit.
The world is stuck right now because the restrainer is still here.
2 Thessalonians 2 tells us the “man of sin” [Antichrist] cannot be revealed until the “restrainer is taken out of the way.”
The “restrainer” in this context is the Holy Spirit working through the Church. Once everything is in place, the Church will be raptured, caught up, and the Holy Spirit’s restraining ministry will be removed to allow the rise of Antichrist and the world enters the seven-year Tribulation, also called the Day of the Lord.
And let’s be clear. The Day of the Lord is not the rapture. The rapture is our “gathering together to Him” in 2 Thessalonians 2:1.
Then Paul changes the subject in verse 2 to the Day of the Lord, which is the Tribulation period. The Church is removed before that day begins.
Revelation 6 shows Jesus opening the seals. That means that God’s wrath begins with the first seal, at the very beginning of the Tribulation, not halfway through the Tribulation. By the sixth seal, the world finally recognizes what has already been happening and cries out, “Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb.”
The Bride is not here for that. Halleluiah!
The Tribulation is not normal hardship. It is not just war, politics, or economic stress. It is supernatural judgment. Seals, trumpets, bowls, death, famine, pestilence, demonic torment, cosmic signs, and the wrath of God poured out on a Christ rejecting world.
That is why Jesus said to watch and pray to be accounted worthy to escape all these things and stand before the Son of Man. Luke 21:36.
The rapture is close. The signs are everywhere with the greatest sign being Israel.
God’s prophetic time-clock is Israel.
Prophecy teachers have been warning for years that America’s support of Israel will need to diminish by the start of the Tribulation. That’s because God wants Israel to face their enemies alone in the Tribulation.
The current cultural debate over Israel inside America being led by Tucker Carlson and others is another indication of eroding American support for Israel.
What’s behind this?
Satan has stirred America’s enemies to drive a wedge between America and Israel.
You may get the impression that America’s current, cultural-clash over Israel is all due to the anti-Israel rants of Tucker Carlson. Not so. He’s a third-tier pawn.
The enemy is behind it who is using America’s greatest enemies to weaken our support for Israel. And it’s working.
The broader Chinese-Russian-Iranian-Qatari propaganda narrative is this:
American global dominance must end.
They want a multipolar world where China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and others share power.
To get there, America’s alliance with Israel must be broken.
So they deceptively package anti-Israel narratives inside popular American causes and slogans:
“America First,” anti-corruption, anti-Epstein, anti-foreign influence, pro-Constitution, etc.
These become their Trojan horse inside American culture.
The goal is to convince Americans that Israel, one of America’s greatest allies, is actually its greatest enemy.
To do this they hire pawns to use recycled conspiracy theories and long debunked tropes put out by some of America’s most popular podcasters.
Do not be deceived. Do not fall for it. It’s a lie.
But it’s also a sign the end is near.
Don’t panic. Don’t fear.
Share the gospel. Put Bibles in people’s hands. Warn while there is still time.
Because once the Bride goes up, the world will never be the same!

Israel, Lion of Judah Awakens
Between their high-tech war over seven different enemies we are witnessing Bible prophecy being fulfilled as never before. In the process, we are seeing a new era being shaped from Jerusalem.
From the abyss of October 7, a nation has risen that has understood that its survival can no longer be secured by managing the status quo, but only through the radical reshaping of its entire neighborhood. In God’s sovereign plan, He has allowed the the events of Oct 7 in Gaza in order to close the gap on the looming Tribulation period. I’ll have much more on this at our upcoming class on Feb. 17.
From the dismantling of the terror hubs in the Gaza Strip, Judea and Samaria and Lebanon, to the fall of the Assad regime in Syria, and its bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities, Israel has broken the strategic backbone of the Islamic Republic and paved the way for the historic upheaval we’re seeing playing out now in Iran. The potential collapse of the mullah regime in Tehran, accompanied by nationwide protests and the public smashing of symbols of decades-long tyranny, is no accident but the result of an unprecedented Israeli and US exertion of force.
Israel is no longer just a besieged small state, but a strategic military powerhouse in a new Middle East. Israel’s conduct over the past two years marks the transition from a defensive fortress mentality to a proactive, world-shaping dominance.
Prophetically what we’re witnessing signals the imminency of the Rapture, the Tribulation and the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ. It’s time to put your spiritual house in order and to stand up and pray for Israel!
The Downfall of a Dictator
Deep in the night of January 2, Chinook helicopters crossed the skies of Caracas, Venezuela. America’s Operation Absolute Resolve had begun, and by the time it concluded President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, landed safely in New York. It was a perfectly planned and carried out surprise military action that took place in the capital city of a hostile nation.
During the action, Joint Chiefs Gen Dan Caine revealed over 150 US aircraft were used and close to 60 Venezuelan military and security personnel were killed, while seven US soldiers were injured. According to Attorney General Pam Bondi, Maduro and his wife will now face charges in the Southern District of New York, including conspiracy to engage in drug-terror activities, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the United States.
Not surprisingly, all the usual suspects lost their minds over this decisive action by President Trump. Russia, Turkey, Colombia, Qatar, Iran, Panama, Cuba, and other UN states and anti-western countries condemned the extraction. Hamas and Hezbollah threw in their two cents against, as did all the angry liberals in the US and beyond who hate everything that Trump does. Anti-imperialist protests sprang up immediately around America, all part of a coordinated plan of attack by the radical left that began even while the extraction was still taking place.
On the flip side, Venezuelans in Venezuela and many other nations are dancing in the streets, praising the United States for freeing the citizenry from the crushing thumb of Maduro. Another place we can see celebration is in the US stock market which hit an all-time high on Monday.
This action by the United States has truly changed the global picture. On Tuesday, President Trump issued an ultimatum to Venezuela to abandon its alliances with China, Russia, Iran, and Cuba, and place its oil industry under an exclusive partnership with Washington. US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz emphasized this split with America’s enemies, saying to the United Nations, “You cannot continue to hold the world’s largest energy reserves under the control of US adversaries.” The US Department of State added on X, “This is OUR Hemisphere, and President Trump will not allow our security to be threatened.” This is all part of the Trump Doctrine of the Western Hemisphere and the Middle East.
Sooner or later, you knew that Israel would be blamed for the attack. It came out in just two days. Delcy Rodriguez, the acting president of Venezuela, who had been vice president when Maduro was taken, claimed that the US operation was actually a “Zionist attack” orchestrated by Israel. Candace Owens, along with other antisemitic loons, also put Israel in a direct influencing rule for the extraction of Maduro.
“Death to the Dictator”
The protests in Iran that began two weeks ago are only growing. In more than 200 locations around the country, people have taken to the streets chanting “Death to the Dictator!” Buildings have been burned, pictures of the ayatollahs have been desecrated, and government structures have been mobbed. The military is fighting back with live fire, thus far killing at least 45 citizens and arresting more than 2000 more, according to human rights groups. The people are fed up with the Islamist regime caring more about arming their proxies than providing food, water, and energy to their population. On Tuesday, the Iranian rial reached a new low of 1,470,000 to one US dollar on the open market with no signs of potential turn-around.
The country’s leaders are trying to distract the people by attempting to focus on a common enemy. For days now, Iran has threatened a preemptive strike against Israel. But for many in Iran, they find a greater affinity with those in Jerusalem than with those in the government buildings in Tehran. For Israel’s part, Netanyahu has warned, “If we are attacked, the implications for Iran will be very dire.”
Meanwhile, dozens of US Air Force refueling tankers and heavy military transport aircraft have departed to the Middle East, with numerous sources saying it is in preparation for strikes against Iran. Other countries see the threat, and Canada, Russia, and Australia have each asked their citizens to leave Iran immediately. The ayatollahs certainly understand their predicament and have deployed air surveillance radar systems in Tehran and several other cities in case either the US or Israel comes calling. There are also rumors that Ayatollah Khamenei has a contingency plan to flee to Moscow if either the protests grow or another major attack comes. There are also rumors and indications of Russian planes landing in Tehran to extract large amounts of Iranian gold to take out of the country and to store in Russia. These rumors are bolstered by a claim by British MP Tom Tugendhat that there were reports of Russian cargo aircraft landing in Tehran and “large amounts of gold leaving Iran.”
Israel Targets Hezbollah in Lebanon
Throughout the last week, Israel continued to hit Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. The Lebanese government is scrambling to show that they are attempting to disarm the terrorist group, even releasing footage of the military neutralizing a Hezbollah underground weapons facility. But their overall effort has not been effective, and sources say that Israel is not interested in waiting for Lebanon to transition to the second phase of the agreed-to weapons-consolidation plan which would focus on areas north of the Litani River.
Peace Stalled in Gaza
Hamas may say it’s ready to move on to stage two of Trump’s plan, but there are still two major hurdles which must be overcome. First, the terrorist group must disarm, something they are unwilling to do. Second, Israel demands the remains of the final hostage, St.-Sgt.-Maj. Ran Gvili, before it will open the Rafah Crossing. Until these two issues are resolved, the process will remain stalemated.
The US takes Two Russian-Flagged Oil Tankers
A cat-and-mouse game has been taking place for two weeks between the US military and two Russian “shadow” tankers that broke through the American blockade of Venezuela. Eventually, the Motor Tanker Bella I and the Motor Tanker Sophia were located and boarded by US forces – one in the North Atlantic Ocean and one in international waters in the Caribbean.
While the pursuit was taking place, Russia dispatched a submarine and a ship to assist the tankers, but they didn’t arrive in time. Both tankers have been seized. US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said, “The world’s criminals are on notice. You can run, but you can’t hide. We will never relent in our mission to protect the American people and disrupt the funding of narcoterrorism wherever we find it, period. This is our country’s greatest fighting force at their best. This is America first at sea.”
Greenland, USA
It is the intention of the Trump administration to purchase Greenland, according to a statement made by Secretary of State Marco Rubio to certain US lawmakers. The purpose of the acquisition is security, particularly with rising threats coming from Russia and China. European leaders warned against a military takeover of the country, saying that it could amount to an end of NATO.
If the European leaders were smart they would loudly support and encourage President Trump to take over Greenland in order to help make America even stronger. The United States helped defeat Europe’s enemies in World War One and again in World War Two. Europe is now so weak that without America, Putin would already have invaded. Unfortunately, their blindness brought on by the Islamic invasion of Europe seems to be taking over almost all of Europe.
While the White House didn’t rule out a military option, they did assert that it would not be their preferred option. Rubio will be meeting next week with key international players in the discussion.
Tim Walz Drops from Minnesota Governor Race
Amidst a rampant scandal involving Somalis, day cares, billions of federal funds, and, some say, his own office, incumbent Tim Walz has withdrawn from the 2026 governor race. “Every minute that I spend defending my own political interest would be a minute I can’t spend defending the people of Minnesota against the criminals who prey on our generosity and the cynics who want to prey on our differences,” Walz said, attempting to firmly plant himself on the moral high ground. Critics, however, say that he is running scared, claiming that even more allegations are coming against him. This once beautiful state is not what it used to be, and this is going to be a very difficult year for Minnesotans. Despite Walz stepping out of the race, I can at least take solace in the fact that Amy Klobuchar is waiting in the wings. Yikes! Like I said, it’s going to be a very difficult year.
Deadly ICE Incident in Minnesota
Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old activist, tried to use her car to block ICE vehicles in Minneapolis. The situation escalated, and Good drove directly at an ICE agent, hitting him. The agent fired his weapon in self-defense, killing Good. Immediately, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called it an act of murder. Governor Tim Walz, seeing his opportunity to get the spotlight off his own scandal, urged Americans everywhere to take to the streets, saying, “If you’re in Portland, or you’re in LA, or you’re in Chicago, or you’re wherever they’re coming next, stand with us. Stand with us against this.”
These are words that get law enforcement officers killed, and the Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association quickly responded by condemning this kind of “irresponsible” and “reckless” rhetoric. Federal government officials also quickly came out against the inflammatory verbal attacks by Frey, Walz, and other leftist firebrands like Rep. Alexandria Occasio-Cortez. It appears that Walz is doing his best to find a way to draw attention away from the appalling fraud in Minnesota. Protests and riots against the shooting broke out in several cities across the country. This is a story that has legs, and we may be talking about how it plays out for weeks to come.

Hamas Takes Back Gaza
Regardless of the West’s illusions of eliminating Hamas and restoring Gaza, the place remains a mess. Within hours of the pullback of Israel’s forces, tens of thousands of Hamas armed militants in uniforms and battle gear took control of all the main roads and junctions, letting EVERYONE know Hamas was still in charge of Gaza.
This week featured a frenzy of hundreds of murders, kidnappings, public executions, and brutal beatings and breaking of legs by Hamas terrorists. Anyone who resisted them in the last two years or showed any sympathy to Israel has by now been caught, eliminated, or became disabled. Where are all the “human rights” organizations? Where are the “Free Palestine” demonstrations? Where are the crocodile tears in the UN halls?
In short, Hamas is once again attempting to complete its takeover of the Gaza territories that Israel was asked to vacate under the new American Administration agreement. What’s different now compared to Oct 7, 2023, is that the IDF has control of about 50% of the Gaza Strip territory; the Hamas rocket arsenal is nearly exhausted; and all the living hostages are back home.
Fragile Peace… at Best
Regardless of the West’s desperate attempts to pacify the Islamist nations like Qatar, Turkey and Egypt, to bring Gaza into order, and to control Israel’s hardliners, hardly anyone in Israel trusts that this new 20-Point Peace Plan will succeed.
The simple fact is that until Hamas is completely eradicated, Israel should not move an inch from their new “Yellow Line” border with Gaza (see map below), and should continue to eliminate any Hamas action (there are many, each day) which violates the agreement.
In fact, it won’t be surprising if, should Hamas remain obstinate, the IDF will take even more ground in Gaza to secure their southern communities that suffered so gravely on October 7.
No More Terror State In Gaza
Barring a (political) miracle, it looks like Hamas has walked right into a trap. Given its nature, Hamas cannot surrender and will never disarm, leaving it in a perpetual state where it is ruling over an oppressed and impoverished population lacking a viable economy or a political horizon.
The Gaza population will keep trying to migrate out of Hamas’ grip as fast as they can, leaving it ruling over the ruins of Gaza.
The rich Arab nations that vowed to finance Gaza’s rebuilding are already pulling back from their commitments due to Hamas’ belligerence. Just like we wrote in the past, the Gaza debacle shall remain thorny to be used by the Lord to bring about His purposes for the end of the age.
There will never be a new terror state in Gaza. The moment they raise their heads, the IDF will bomb and destroy them, the same way it daily bombs Hezbollah in Lebanon.
On another front, Israel’s politicians are gradually and painfully realizing that the Lebanese and Syrian “fake governments” lied to them and have no intention or the ability to disarm Hezbollah or the other Jihadi militias that run loose in their territories threatening Israel’s borders.
Saudi Arabia Pulls Back
Saudi Arabia has announced that it will NOT send any money for the rebuilding of Lebanon since its government is not fulfilling its promise to disarm Hezbollah. This war is far from over, and Israel will have to act resolutely when it has to. Pray for Israel!
Vice President Vance visited Israel this week, following President Trump and many of the American Administration trying so hard to “make a deal.”
Israel Stands Firm
The present situation is that Israel took a firm stance. (1) No Turkish forces will enter the Gaza Strip as part of the peace monitoring fake force. (2) No PLO (the supposed moderate Palestinians) personnel will enter Gaza. (3) No further Israeli withdrawal from the “Yellow Line” until Hamas is fully disarmed and Gaza is completely demilitarized.
God Is Protecting Israel
Over the last two years during Israel’s war in Gaza we have watched the God of Israel come through time and time again with miracle after miracle just as the Lord promised He would do in Zechariah 12!
Israel has been fighting a seven-front war and yet their supplies have not been depleted, their military has not been defeated, and they are now stronger than at any time in their 77-year history.
This has all been accomplished because the God of Israel neither slumbers or sleeps in protecting his chosen people. Israel has defeated its enemies, gained back most of the Gaza Strip and has expanded their land into southern Syria.
Just as in every previous war since 1948, it’s a losing proposition to try to go to war against Israel. If you are foolish enough to attempt an attack on Israel, you’ll be fortunate if you come out alive.
Israel will continue to build itself up economically, militarily, nationally and hopefully, spiritually, in spite of its internal challenges and in the midst of global and regional chaos.

Senior Hamas Official:
The ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ Is Only The First Round In The Plan To Eliminate Israel Starting In… 2027
Dr. Muhammad Al-Saghir, a senior board member for the International Union of Muslim Scholars, is now on record celebrating and justifying the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, describing October 7th as a “preemptive attack.”
The Muslim terrorist also said the October 7th attack was a “turning point” that signaled round one of a long-term plan to liberate “Palestine” and bring to fruition Hamas founder Sheikh Yassin’s 1999 “prophecy” of Israel’s destruction by the end of 2027.
Yes, you read that right, 2027.
Whether Yassin’s “prophecy” is considered genuine to the enemies of Israel or the wishful ravings of a mad man matters little. The deceived have chosen to believe it and will do everything in their power to see that it is fulfilled.
What we have here is, once again, more writing on the wall hinting that something of Biblical proportion is just around the corner. And those plans, it seems, are advancing rapidly.
It’s important for students of prophecy to understand that in God’s sovereign plan, the ‘PALESTINIAN ISSUE,’ is His main catalyst for pushing forward His two goals for the 7-Year Tribulation: 1) judging the world and 2) redeeming the remnant of Israel.
God is stirring the world over the Rubik’s-Cube-Palestinian-Issue [Zech. 12:2-3] and it will never be resolved! At least not until the Prince of Peace returns.
The controversy over Palestine is already the central issue today in world politics and will continue that way during the remaining time before the 7-Year Tribulation begins… and even afterward!
Here’s what that looks like: The Palestinian Issue will launch the start of the Tribulation with the agreement for the Two-State Solution. Then it will mark the mid-point of the Tribulation when the armies of Antichrist assault the ‘West Bank’ and Jerusalem and thereby capture the ‘Palestinian Territories.’ And finally, it will become the trigger for Armageddon when the Muslim nations attack Israel to clear out all the Jews from Palestine, “from the river to the sea.”
And we can’t forget that in addition to God’s sovereign plan for using the Palestinian issue, Satan has his own motivations for using it. For the enemy, the so-called ‘liberation of Palestine’ mantra or the world’s push for the ‘Palestinian State’ is his primary offensive strategy to secure control of Jerusalem in order for him to rule from there in place of Jesus Christ.
So, one of the best markers for accessing how close we are getting to the Rapture of the Church is to keep your eye on the Palestinian issue.
As I see it, the closer we get to a Palestinian State, the closer we get to the 7-Year Tribulation!
And the closer we get to the 7-Year Tribulation, the closer we get to the Rapture.
Keep watching. Prophecy is in motion …
Revelation 17:13, “These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast… For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled.”

Peace Deal Made!
How would you feel if all your friends told you that you better do the number one thing in the world that you want to do least? If you don’t, they’ll be done with you forever. Not sure what emotions you might experience? Then, find one of the leaders of Hamas, buy him a cup of coffee, and let him tell you just how miserable he is right now, because that is currently the terror group’s situation.
President Trump has presented his 20-Point Gaza Peace Plan [see below] to initiate phase one for ending the Israel-Gaza War. Hamas was doing their usual hemming and hawing, trying to draw out the process until it broke down. Only this time, instead of supporting them, their best friends, the Qataris, along with the Turks and the Egyptians, told them you better sign or we’re cutting you off. That’s what it took and Hamas signed on to Phase One of the deal which is to release all 48 of the remaining hostages this weekend, both the dead & alive.
If there are no last-minute snags, this should finally bring the remaining hostages home, though there’s the potential that some who are deceased may not be recovered for some time.
Achieving this milestone is no surprise to President Trump or Prime Minister Netanyahu. In fact, it is the culmination of a brilliant strategy that began exactly one month ago with the “failed” Israeli air attack on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar. What the media loves to portray as a botched assassination attempt was actually a key step that scared the Qataris and others into forcing Hamas’s hand.
The magnificent scheme was cooked up by President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu that is worthy of a Netflix mini-series. And it worked like a charm by putting fear into Qatar which Trump used to bring Qatar into agreeing on his 20-Point Peace Plan.
President Trump is likely heading to Egypt soon for the Israel-Hamas signing agreement and then to Jerusalem to speak in the Knesset. All the rumors of the rift between Trump and Netanyahu were part of the scheme.
In the next 72 hours, the hostages will be returned home. On Sunday, 20 innocent Israeli hostages will be returned and on Monday the remaining fallen hostages will come home. In return, the terrorists will receive 250 of their imprisoned members.
And, in case you are wondering, none of the terrorists involved in the October 7 massacre will be among those returned. In return, Israel will pull back their troops from their present positions in Gaza but will remain in the Philadelphi Corridor and inside the borders of Gaza. Hamas has it in their mind that this is the end of the war, but Israel says, “We’ll see.” This agreement is just phase one of the process. If the terrorists fail to keep any part of the agreement to the letter, Israel will have full permission to destroy them.
Once the agreement is fully set in motion, Israel and the United States will be open to focus on other areas. That means that Iran needs to be looking over their shoulders. The U.S. has already moved massive forces into the Persian Gulf area. The Houthis also need to prepare for some visitations, since Israel can now put their primary focus on dealing with those terrorists.
Pause Not Peace
We need to remember that Hamas is the Palestinian chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood who opposes Israel and would like to see them completely destroyed. They see ‘peace’ as more like a ‘pause’ to reload. Genuine peace with the “Zionist enemy” is something that is anathema to the Jew-hating, genocidal Islamist death cult like Hamas.
Even if they put on the appearance of doing so, Hamas will never really disarm. They will never relinquish power. They will never renounce terrorism. They will never fully retreat into exile. It’s just not in the blood of those who are perpetually ‘blood drunk’ by the divine dictates of their ‘faith.’

Backed into a corner, giving up hostages was a relatively easy compromise to make. If Hamas refused then Israel’s onslaught would have been unrelenting and Hamas would have likely lost many of the hostages, either by them getting killed during combat or in rescue attempts. And fewer hostages means far fewer terrorists released from Israeli prisons in any exchange.
It was really the only choice Hamas could make, one that was made easier now that their largest supporters Turkey and Qatar (both now suddenly on the receiving end with the promise of significant military upgrades and security guarantees from the US, respectively) — were now exerting significant pressure on Hamas to accept.
Flotilla Flop
I am writing this story under protest, because the ridiculous flotillas to “break the blockade on Gaza” are technically news. But, oy vavoy, I hate giving these people any recognition at all. Sure, they did provide a little comedy relief, like when Greta Thunberg got demoted to a different boat and one of the organizers resigned after some bullying by a trans contingent.
And then there was that meme that said that Greta was the first hostage victim in history whose kidnappers’ only demand is that she leave. Actually, I guess based on entertainment value alone, the flotillas weren’t such a bad thing after all.
Syrian’s New Target
Now that Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has slaughtered Alawites, Christians, and Druze, he is in search of a new target to mollify his murderous ISIS gangs. It appears he may have found it in the Kurds of Aleppo.
Deadly fighting broke out on Monday between the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and Syrian government forces. Because the SDF is backed by the U.S., if this conflict continues it could draw America into the conflict to a certain extent.
Macron’s Mess
At just 27 days, French President Emmanuel Macron’s latest Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu became the shortest tenured PM in the history of the Fifth Republic when he resigned his office on Monday.
This leaves the beleaguered president with a choice. Does he appoint yet another sacrificial prime minister? Does he take a chance and dissolve parliament, hoping for better luck with new elections? Or does he just resign? I know my choice for him.
