Prayer Center

As Christians, we are called to pray for God’s guidance and wisdom. At Rapture Ready we feel it is more imperative than ever for believers to stand together in prayerful unity as the world continues on a downward spiral toward the Tribulation hour. Calamity causes people to waste huge amounts of time fixated on watching the destruction instead of praying for protection and God’s miraculous interventions.

The Bible is filled with verses encouraging us to stay focused on praying for God’s will for our lives; for the safety and wellbeing of our families, ministries and leaders; for the spiritual awakening of the unsaved so they to come to true salvation in Christ; and of course for one another and anything that the Lord places upon our hearts.

Up to the final moments of our days on earth, until the day of the Rapture of the Church, we are dedicated to be prayer warriors for the cause of Christ. We have added this new page to invite and motivate our fellow believers to pray for the most pressing needs of the day.

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty” (1 Timothy 2)

Signs, Signs, Everywhere are Signs!

Under the circumstances, I thought it appropriate to begin with Nation Against Nation:

Hal Lindsey noted in his Oct. 5 report (link provided in this article) that almost every nation on Earth is divided against itself: Ethnic versus ethnic, race versus race, women versus men, globalists versus nationalists. This is exactly what Jesus warned us would happen in the last days just prior to His return (Matthew 24:7). More on this in the “Global government agenda” section.

Extreme weather: In Japan, four people were reported killed and about 200 were reported injured by Typhoon Trami. The storm caused widespread disruption. Typhoon Trami toppled the huge statue of Kannon Sama known to Buddhists as the goddess of mercy, to whom those come who are affected by dangers caused by water, fire or weapons. Part of feeling compassion for others is to warn them about idolatry (Psalm 115:4-8) and point them in the right direction (Acts 4:12) to the only One who can save their eternal souls.

For the first time in 13 years, Earth fueled two Category-5-equivalent storms Tuesday on opposite sides of the Pacific Ocean basin: Hurricane Walaka and Super Typhoon Kong Rey. Walaka is now a tropical storm and, as of this writing, it is headed toward Alaska. Kong Rey moved through Okinawa, Japan’s main island, bringing heavy rain. It is now a tropical storm headed for North and South Korea as of this writing, already causing heavy rain. Afterwards, it is supposed to head back toward Japan.

A storm system has a 70% chance of becoming Tropical Storm Michael in the coming days. A strike along the Gulf Coast could come as early as Tuesday night, but Wednesday is more likely. Alabama, Mississippi and the Florida panhandled will get the worst of the wind and rain, according to Jeff Masters of Weather Underground.

Tropical Storm Leslie is still churning in the Atlantic, causing rough seas at the beaches of the US East Coast, Atlantic Canada and Bermuda. It could possibly affect the Azores by next weekend or impact the Canary Islands off the west coast of Africa late in the week.

An early-season winter storm descended on Calgary, Canada, on Tuesday, the heaviest single-day snowfall since 1981. It set a new October snow record.

Earthquakes: In Indonesia, the death toll from an earthquake and tsunami that devastated part of the island of Sulawesi has risen to over 1,600, with hundreds still missing. 25 foreign countries and four international organizations have provided assistance. Israel sent an expert disaster team there.

Volcanoes: A volcano erupted on Wednesday on the same central Indonesian island struck last week by a powerful earthquake and tsunami, and authorities warned planes about volcanic ash in the air. Mount Soputan on Sulawesi Island spewed a massive column of ash more than 6,000 meters into the sky.

Plague: In Florida, for the first time in decades, the red tide outbreak is plaguing both the Gulf and Atlantic coasts at once. The Gulf Coast has taken most of the brunt of the toxic algae outbreak all summer long, but this week it showed up on South Florida’s Atlantic beaches. Tons of sea animals have been left dead in this outbreak.

Hurricane Florence led to the hatching of billions of mega mosquitoes called gallnippers. They’re so big, they’ve been mistaken for wasps. These mosquitos are aggressive and have a painful bite.

In California, an outbreak of flea-borne typhus that affects humans has hit downtown Los Angeles.

African swine fever is spreading in Europe and Asia. The virus reached China this summer and Western Europe for the first time in a separate simultaneous outbreak, leaving officials worried. Humans are suspected to have caused the recent spread to Belgium, where eight cases were confirmed as of September 25, according to the World Organization for Animal Health.

Famine: War-torn Yemen is experiencing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. 18 million (out of a population of 22 million) are hungry and homeless. Liberal colleges and news medianites don’t seem to notice that President Trump is leading the world in aiding this Muslim nation. Ahmed Charai, an expert on Morocco and North Africa, said President Trump’s timely action is preventing a death toll possibly equal to World War II.

Persecution of Christians: In Canada, Alberta’s deputy education minister is demanding that faith-based schools remove religious content from their policies or face defunding and removal of accreditation. Examples of what is considered objectionable language include: the declaration that “men and women were created in the image of God, after His likeness, and therefore have transcendent, intrinsic worth;” the stated goal of “developing godly attitudes toward marriage and the family;” reference to “the unchangeable and infallible truth of the Word of God;” and affirmation that men and women are “equal in dignity and worth” but have “distinct and complementary roles.”

Prophecy News Watch was taken over by hackers, who proceeded to send obscene posts to followers’ newsfeeds. The page was not able to be recovered; therefore, after 10 years with 400,000 followers, they have to start over. They hope you will “like” and follow their new page, and they have tips for changing your settings so that you’ll actually see their posts in your newsfeed, as Facebook has a tendency to not show or bury many Christian/Conservative posts. Their new Facebook page can be found by clicking on this link.

Human Rights groups report that the Turkish military launched airstrikes against seven predominantly Christian villages in northern Iraq last month.

Persecution of Jews: The anti-Israel Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) has called on the EU to cancel a program to bring together young Israelis and “Palestinians” in December.

Moving toward a melded, false world religion: The Hindu spiritual practice of yoga wasn’t officially permitted for decades in Saudi Arabia where all non-Muslim worship is banned. But Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman vows an “open, moderate Islam,” and recognized yoga as a sport in his liberalization drive.

Depraved days: In England, at Bewsey Lodge Primary School, a video published by the BBC shows 6-year-old school children being instructed to write gay love letters.

In the US, over 50 Colleges are endorsing the first ever holiday Of Zieselves, Xerselves, Eirselves. It’s called International Pronouns Day (Oct. 17) to “make asking, sharing, and respecting a person’s chosen personal pronoun commonplace.”

A Brooklyn, New York-based company sells heels in men’s sizes 5-14. “Whether a customer is male, trans, or non-binary, the mission of Syro is to promote femininity and encourage a fluid sense of style.” “We get emails where kids are saying how grateful they are to discover us, which is really heartwarming,” Han (designer) said. “They tell us that they’re wearing them to prom, or to a wedding. Those spaces are so gender-confirming so it’s nice to provide them a way to express themselves and  challenge norms.”

Protestors of Franklin Graham’s Festival of Hope in Blackpool, England, pointed to Graham’s stance against same-sex marriage and his calling homosexuality a sin. The city’s 518-foot-tall Blackpool Tower was lit up in rainbow colors and displayed a rainbow flag to show the city’s solidarity with LGBTs. Present was a 12-foot-tall mannequin dubbed “Big Jesus” which is owned by the LGBT-affirming congregation, Liberty Church. The Big Jesus figure wore a rainbow sash and held rainbow-colored balloons.

Thirteen states are now investigating alleged sexual abuse linked to the Catholic church. Florida is the 13th. The attorney general said, “Any priest that would exploit a position of power and trust to abuse a child is a disgrace to the church and a threat to society.”

Lawlessness: In Florence, South Carolina, police officers arrived at a home to interview 28-year-old Seth Hopkins regarding sexual abuse of a foster child in the home. They were caught off-guard by his father, 74-year-old Fred Hopkins, who prides himself on being a competitive rifle marksman. By the time the standoff was over, seven police officers had been shot. One died and some of the others are still in serious condition as of this writing.

Fred Hopkins is a disbarred lawyer and has a history with the law. Hopkins was taken into custody after the standoff and has been charged with murder. The son, Seth, has been charged with criminal sexual abuse of a minor. Police believe there are more victims.

A gunman is targeting victims in a Chicago neighborhood. He’s murdered two men two days apart this week. Police released a photo, but the man is all in black with his face covered. The only clue they have is that he walks with his feet pointing outward like a duck. Police don’t know a motive. One victim was a young Jewish man murdered during the Jewish holiday, and the other is an elderly gay man who was out walking his dog.

William Clyde Allen III has been arrested by authorities in connection with castor beans, the component of deadly ricin detected in mail that was sent to government officials. Ricin was detected in two envelopes sent to the Pentagon; top military officials were the intended targets. Another suspicious envelope was sent to President Trump along with two to Ted Cruz’s campaign headquarters. Allen has a history with law enforcement, including child sex abuse and aggravated assault. Allen served in the navy, but records show his rank was reduced months before his discharge.

Global government agenda: A new film entitled “The Creepy Line” highlights the disturbing discoveries of Robert Epstein, senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology, who has devoted the past five years investigating online manipulation, surveillance and censorship. Google and Facebook’s access to the public’s most private and personal data threatens the electoral process and free speech and endangers human autonomy. “Humanity will survive, but it won’t be free,” says Epstein, a liberal who favored Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election but who now has become a champion in exposing the bias and censorship of opinions on the right side of the political spectrum.

Computer scientists featured in the film warn that only a breakup of these powerful tech firms can keep self-government and freedom alive. That’s how serious he sees the problem. Epstein warned that all of Google’s software and services are surveillance tools and outlined how consumers can protect themselves and their children from data manipulation.

Adopting the current comprehensive migration pact currently under discussion in the United Nations would be the worst possible step when it comes to tackling the challenge of migration, Peter Szijjarto, the foreign minister, said at a session of the UN General Assembly in New York. It would erase all borders and ram Islamic migrants down countries’ throats whether they support it or not. President Trump is willing to take true refugees in up to 30,000 with a vetting process in place. But the UN and EU globalists want them to arrive en masse without proper vetting. And look what has happened in Europe.

Globalist German Chancellor Angela Merkel warned President Trump against “destroying” the United Nations. Trump warns nations against globalism, while the liberal elite promote it. The best thing Trump can do for the US is to leave the United (Netherworld) Nations. Hopefully, he can hold off globalism until we are raptured out of this corrupted world.

In a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a pair of Norwegian researchers studied test results from over 730,000 young men and found that IQ scores were dropping by 7 points per generation. A recent British study corroborated those results. They can blame whatever they like but, as I’ve said before, Soviet defector Yuri Besmenov warned us of this sinister Communist plot to take down Western nations. They duped people in the academic world whom the plotters referred to as “useful idiots.” These Marxists, Socialists and Communists had already influenced 3 generations by 1984. And they’re still at it. Besmenov would still be warning us if he hadn’t died under suspicious circumstances.

Leftists in the US have bought into this “useful idiot” global agenda hook, line and sinker. Here’s a trick that was pulled on them, and they fell for it:  To highlight alleged intellectual bias in university ‘grievance studies’ programs, 3 scholars wrote 20 absurd papers; 7 were accepted to top publications. The term “Femi-Nazi” became all too accurate when academic hoaxers submitted portions of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” rewritten through a feminist lens to a leading peer-reviewed feminist journal. The satirical paper was acceptedthis past academic year for publication by Affilia: Journal of Women and Social Work. And the kicker is that the scholars who wrote these papers are liberals themselves, but believe that things have gone too far left. And they proved it.

President Trump is right.  With Stocks at all-time highs and unemployment at 50-year lows, the Fed’s interest rate increases show a far-left liberal bias. The only Fed Funds Rate increases since 2015 were after President Trump was elected President. The Fed have increased the Fed Funds Rate now seven times.

The American Thinker posted a good article titled The Democrats and Keyser Soze. In the movie “The Usual Suspects,” Keyser Soze said, “The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.” That is, he feigns weakness, innocence, and vulnerability, even as he exercises wickedness, power, and control. The trouble for Democrats in recent days is that their disguise has become transparent. Read more at this link.

California governor Jerry Brown has signed into law a bill (SB 282) that allows any person to “aid, advise, and encourage” suicide.

The California libleft and its governor gave the President a huge middle finger when they decided to become a sanctuary state. The whole state would be an illegal alien haven. It showed just how far the left have lurched on immigration, on policy in general, and their global agenda—their “Imagine” world. Gov. Brown signed it into law last year, but now a California judge ruled that it’s an unconstitutional law.

The FBI is refusing to declassify 37 pages of materials related to the Uranium One deal (selling of US’ uranium to Russia). The documents are believed to contain information regarding then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s involvement, as well as the Obama administration’s knowledge of the controversial deal.

As Leftists continue to lose political power in America due to elections (President Trump) and Supreme Court nominations (Brett Kavanaugh), their activists are becoming more militant and extremist. Now, left-wing groups are openly discussing mass executions and planned murders of prominent conservatives, using Twitter to promote the attacks.

After Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed on Saturday as Supreme Court Justice, leftists (no doubt paid Soros shills) yelled and banged on the doors of the Supreme Court and tried to get inside. They also tried to get inside the Capitol building. One man wearing a tee shirt that said, “This is what a feminist looks like,” was so angry that his eyes bugged out and spit came out of his mouth. See the 4th video at this link.

Capitol Police arrested 27-year-old Jackson Cosko of DC for “allegedly posting private, identifying information (doxxing) about one or more US Senators.” Cosko worked for Dem Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, Dem Senator Maggie Hassan and retired Dem Senator Barbara Boxer. Many Republicans on the Senate Judiciary had their home addresses and phone numbers published on their Wikipedia pages shortly after Lindsey Graham went off on Senate Democrats for destroying Kavanaugh’s life in order to derail his confirmation.

Cosko, a “cyber-security graduate student,” is charged with making Public Restricted Personal Info, Witness Tampering, Threats in Interstate Communications, Unauthorized Access of a Gov’t Computer, 2nd Degree Burglary & Unlawful Entry.

President Trump warned Republican senators not to be intimidated by Soros-backed anti-Kavanaugh protestors. He said, “The very rude elevator screamers are paid professionals only looking to make Senators look bad. Don’t fall for it! Also, look at all of the professionally made identical signs. Paid for by Soros and others. These are not signs made in the basement from love! #Troublemakers.”

Republican Sen. John Kennedy from Louisiana had harsh words for his Democrat colleagues – for trying to destroy Brett Kavanaugh for partisan purposes – during his appearance this week on Tucker Carlson Tonight. He said, “I think there are some Democrats in good faith but I think for some of their colleagues, it isn’t about searching for the truth; it’s about winning…It doesn’t matter who gets destroyed,” Kennedy stated. “These are people, I’m not going to name names but I’m not sure they have a soul. I don’t think their mother breastfed them; I think they went right to raw meat.”

Following the new low established by USA Today castigating Brett Kavanaugh erroneously as a potential pedophile who should stay away from children, the Illinois Times published a wickedly evil cartoon that mocks the judge’s 10-year-old daughter’s prayer. Leaving no earth unscorched in the campaign to destroy this man, Chris Britt at the Illinois Times published this grotesque cartoon. Ironically, Chris Britt is also a children’s book author.

Four dentists from California who faced rape charges for the alleged assault of a woman at the Wynn Las Vegas in July had all charges dismissed in court Monday when video proved their innocence. It is important to keep a critical eye, as some will use the MeToo movement for selfish motives. Innocent until proven guilty should continue to be one of our country’s bedrock principles.

Rachel Mitchell, the sex-crimes prosecutor who questioned Dr. Christine Blasey Ford last week, wrote in a memo that there were inconsistencies in Ford’s testimony and that– given the information at hand– she would not bring criminal charges against Judge Brett Kavanaugh. She identified Ford’s case as an example of “he said, she said,” and said her case is “even weaker than that.”

Christine Blasey Ford’s former boyfriend, whose name was redacted in the declaration, said Ford neither mentioned Kavanaugh nor mentioned she was a victim of sexual misconduct during the time they were dating from 1992 to 1998. He said he saw Ford going to great lengths to help a woman he believed was her “lifelong best friend” prepare for a potential polygraph test. He added that the woman, Monica McLean, had been interviewing for jobs with the FBI and U.S. Attorney’s office. Christine Blasey Ford is a psychology professor. She published a 2008 article on self-hypnosis used to retrieve and “create artificial situations.”

This past Friday (Oct. 5), Hal Lindsey put the Kavanaugh-Ford debacle into perspective. It is a must watch! He discusses it from the 6:15 mark to the 17:54 mark. He explains the suspiciously quick lie detector test with generic questions (which Ford lied about afterward, saying it was long and she told her life story). He also exposes the delay tactics used by Feinstein and her cohorts.

Here the video of Hal’s report at this link. Here is his written summary at this link.

“We Wrestle Not Against Flesh and Blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians 6:12). The article at this link is a must read in its entirety, but here is a small part of it: “I wonder if someone came forward and said that Nancy Pelosi sexually abused them when they were a minor but they can’t remember where, or when, how they got there, how they got home, and everyone they said was a witness denied it … do you think the Congressional Ethics Committee would investigate it?  Would the ABCCBSNBCPBSCNNMSNBC Cartel do wall-to-wall panel discussion about the validity of the claims?”

“The natural man cannot receive the things of God for they’re foolishness to him.  The mockery of the late-night political hacks masquerading as comedians or of the not even close to being funny Democrat shills haunting SNL reminds us that weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.” (Keep your eyes on Christ).

Wars and rumors of wars: Isaiah 17 & Ezekiel 38-39 news. As we know from last days Bible prophecy, the end goal of the Russian-Arab offensive in Syria is to capture Israel’s Golan Heights. Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem just pledged in his address to the UN General Assembly that Syria will take the Golan Heights from Israel after Syrian regime forces have retaken areas opposite the Israeli border during a recent Russian-backed offensive. God will show the invaders who is in charge in a supernaturally spectacular way! It is coming and it will be done, says the Lord God.

Israel will use its F-35I stealth fighter against Islamic forces in Syria if and when the situation requires. The decision comes after Syria began receiving on Tuesday its new S-300 surface-to-air missile defense system.

UN NATO ambassador Kay Hutchison warned that Washington would “take out” an intermediate-range cruise missile system known as the 9M729 if Russia doesn’t stop development of a cruise missile that is banned under the Cold War treaty… “At that point we would then be looking at a capability to take out a missile that could hit any of our countries in Europe and hit America in Alaska.”

The Iranian Navy boasted that it possesses airships capable of carrying out the swiftest missile strikes in the world against enemy targets.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard showed reckless behavior by firing its ballistic missiles over Iraq into Syria, giving no warning to air traffic in Iraq in order to accomplish their mission, claiming to be targeting ISIS. But their slogans yelled of “death to America,” “death to Israel” and “death to al-Saud” point to a much further goal. The message shows Iran feels that it can target Israel, the US or Saudi Arabia. It is practicing by using its missiles on ISIS and Kurdish opposition groups.

Kings of the East. China is developing a satellite with a powerful laser for anti-submarine warfare. It’s researchers hope will be able to pinpoint a target as far as 500 meters below the ocean’s surface. One researcher, Song Xiaoquan, said if the team can develop the satellite as planned, it will make the upper layer of the sea “more or less transparent” and “change almost everything.” China canceled an October security meeting with U.S. Secretary of Defense Mattis.

A U.S. warship sailed near islands claimed by China in the South China Sea this week at a time of tense relations between the two countries. A Chinese warship forced the destroyer to change course in the South China Sea by sailing close to it in an “unsafe and unprofessional” manner.

Japan’s largest warship sailed into Sri Lanka’s Colombo harbor last weekend. This marks Japan’s highest profile in a diplomatic battle with China for influence along the region’s significant commercial sea lanes.

Dividing God’s land for “peace” never works. For six months, Gazans have gathered along the fence between the Gaza Strip and Israel for often violent daylight demonstrations against Israel. But in recent weeks they’ve used a new tactic: “night confusion units.” Young Gazan men bang drums and chant songs, while others attach flammable devices to balloons. Just this past Friday, violent clashes erupted along the Gaza border with Israel as 20,000 protesters gathered along the security fence. So much for Israel’s giving away Gaza for peace. That could have been their “state,” but they’ve proven what they would do with another one.

So-called “Palestinian” President Mahmoud Abbas (aka PLO terrorist) told the UN General Assembly that there would be no peace without an independent Palestinian state, with East Jerusalem as its capital, including holy sites.

“Palestinian” leaders defiantly declared they won’t end payments to terrorists and their families despite international pressure. Abbas made a similar statement in July, saying, “By Allah, even if we have only a penny left it will only be spent on the families of the Martyrs and the prisoners, and only afterwards will it be spent on the rest of the people,” he said. Shows how much he cares for his own people. Out of the other side of his mouth, he’s supposedly given Hamas 30 days to turn Gaza back over to the PA aka PLO or face the consequences of defunding.

Islam’s global agenda and its consequences: ISIS-backed terror plots globally have increased 63% during the past two years and include those organized by teenagers, as well as “refugees” and “asylum seekers.” The US has emerged as the top target, with 30% of recent plots centering on America. ISIS-backed terrorists have attempted to launch at least 73 attacks on the US since 2017. President Trump has good reason for wanting to limit the number of “refugees” permitted into the US from known terrorist countries.

In an ironic twist of fate, United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staffers received death threats and fled from Gaza into Israel for their lives. UNRWA’s leadership has been supportive of the Hamas-inspired (along with other militant Islamist groups) so-called March of Return.

In France, groups of young migrant gangs in the city of Mulhouse clashed with police, using guerrilla-style tactics against the officers, which included laying traps and attacking them. Attacks on police and other emergency services workers have become more and more common across France.

On the Greek island of Lesbos, according to Deutsche Welle reporters, a terrorist organization that claims to be linked with ISIS dominates Moria’s refugee camp. One migrant states, “They were hunting Kurds here, and threatened one man to cut his throat. We saved him in the last moment, after telling them he is not a Kurd but an Arab. I left Syria to escape ISIS, but it seems that the same rules exist here. I escaped death, and death followed me here.” They say, “If you are not Muslim, I can rape you.”

In the Netherlands, shocking video footage and a report from the Dutch organization “Klap uit de school,” show that numerous Dutch children are forced to bow to Islam. “Dutch children are instructed by the imam to kneel and to pray” which is “not an innocent ritual but part of the Islamic strategy of conquest.” The video footage at the above link originates from 2016-2018; and especially at the end it becomes clear that many schools visit mosques – places where unbelievers are called dogs and where there are calls for jihad.

The Netherlands is rapidly waking up from a multicultural dream dominated by Islam. A poll showed that a proposal of Geert Wilders to ban Islamic expressions from the public space was widely supported by the public.

In Sweden over the last five years, violence among students in primary and secondary schools has more than doubled. So far this year, they’ve received 544 reports of violent incidents. In some places, schools have been forced to close due to school staff losing control of students’ violence. The violence varies from smashed up classrooms to robbery, stabbings and murder, and it is carried out by students against other students and teachers. This violence comes particularly from criminal migrant gangs.

Sign from God? On the sixth day of Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles), a group of Jews praying on the Mount of Olives witnessed a strange mist rising up out of the ground on the Temple Mount, enshrouding the holy site and obscuring the base of the Muslim Dome of the Rock. The mist remained for approximately half an hour, remaining close to the ground and confined to the Temple Mount Compound.

The Feast of Tabernacles represents to the Jews a time of renewed fellowship with God, remembering His sheltering provision and care for them as they traveled in the desert surrounded by clouds of Glory. During Jesus’ ministry on Earth, it was on the last day of this Feast that He cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” (John 7:37–39).

The 7 Jewish feasts are “shadows of things to come but the substance is of Christ.” Just as the spring feasts were fulfilled in Christ, the fall feasts will be fulfilled in Christ. The Feast of Tabernacles will be fulfilled when Christ returns to “tabernacle” (dwell on Earth) during His 1,000-year Millennial reign.

Pray for Brett Kavanaugh’s and his family’s protection, brethren…continually. Pray for President Trump to be able to hold off the evil global government (that we know is coming) until after the rapture. The US is the last nation standing in the way of the satanic plan. Other Western nations are well on their way down that sinister path.

Satan’s deceived and deceiving pawns will not stop fighting for their global and godless “Imagine” so-called utopia. Pray for people to wake up to the sinister agenda described in Revelation 13. Many will be left behind after the rapture to face that horrible time due to their allowing themselves to be deceived. As watchmen and women on the wall, it is our duty to warn them, and spread the saving gospel of Christ while we can.

“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof” (Romans 13:11-14).

Disasters, Deep State, Depravity, & Doctrines of Devils

Disasters: Rescuers in Indonesia are trying to reach people calling for help from collapsed buildings after a 7.5 earthquake followed by a 20-foot tsunami left over 800 dead with the death toll expected to rise, possibly into the thousands. Over 150 aftershocks have followed the quake and tsunami. Thousands of homes, hotels, shopping malls and several mosques have collapsed. May those in this 90% Muslim nation turn to the only One who can save their eternal souls.

People in the Carolinas are still suffering aftereffects of Florence which made landfall in North Carolina as a category 1, killed 48 people and caused extensive damage. Florence became the wettest tropical cyclone on record in both North and South Carolina, dumping about 3 feet of rain. Now storm-battered North Carolinians are facing a new plague — millions of hungry mosquitoes, with some three times the normal size. “It’s like “a bad science fiction movie,” one resident said.

Hurricane Rosa has already brought heavy rain and flooding to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. It’s expected to weaken as it moves into the southwest US; but with all the heavy, dry soil from the severe, extreme and exceptional drought, the rain will just run off, creating flooding and mudslide concerns.

Typhoon Trami headed toward Japan’s mainland on Sept 30 after injuring dozens on southern islands.  Weather officials warned that fierce winds and torrential rain could trigger landslides and floods.

Tropical Storm Kirk brought heavy rain to the Windward Islands before weakening to a tropical depression.

In Canada, 6 tornadoes hit the Ottawa-Gatineau region on September 21, damaging or destroying hundreds of homes, knocking out power and sending people to the hospital.  A 46-year-old man was killed by a falling tree. The mayor of Ottawa said parts of the city looked like a war zone.

Extreme weather: Heavy snow brought Canada’s harvest to a standstill in September. Parts of Alberta recorded their snowiest September ever.

Persecution of Christians: An annual weekend gathering of evangelical activists concluded with a rallying cry, and a warning, from Vice President Mike Pence for Christians not to be complacent with the midterm elections coming up. Complacency is the greatest threat to Republicans in keeping control of Congress. “The other side is mobilized and some say they’re motivated as never before. But I say we must match — in fact, I say we must surpass — the energy of the American left and their enthusiasm. And if we do, we will win.”

Dr. James Dobson warned Christians that if they neglect their duty to vote in November’s midterm elections, they’ll likely lose their freedom – giving way to a socialist takeover sweeping America. “Socialism would replace freedom and free enterprise. God help us if you and I fail to fulfill our moral responsibility.”

Thankfully, under the Trump administration, Christians fleeing persecution are finally being allowed to take refuge in the US. 70.8% being admitted are now Christian.

A new report says Pastor Andrew Brunson could very soon be released from Turkish detention after months of immense pressure from President Trump has sent the Turkish lira into a nosedive.

A New Jersey court has agreed with atheists that fixing furnaces or repairing broken plumbing in historic church buildings is “religious;” therefore, they should be denied. This violates the First Amendment’s requirement that the government remain neutral on matters of religion.

A Muslim Brotherhood memo urged its Islamic supporters to burn churches down in Egypt, so why are they still not considered a terrorist group by the US?—The Democrat Party refuses to do so. Worse still, the Democrats advance the Muslim Brotherhood in America. The Muslim Brotherhood’s most powerful operative, DNC co-chair Hakim Muhammad (aka Keith Ellison), has a history of well-documented sexual assault and beatings of women, and the Democrats support his run for Attorney General in Minnesota.

The banishment of Christianity is on the rise in countries around the world, and the left would like nothing better than to see Christianity erased from the US too. The latest example is in Alabama. The Blount County School District ended prayer over the public address system before high school athletic events after a complaint was filed by an atheist group. The decision upset neighbors of the schools who had grown accustomed to the tradition of hearing prayers to God over the schools’ PA systems for years. Attendees of one football game wore “We Believe” T-shirts in response and recited the Lord’s Prayer.

In the face of an ongoing Communist crackdown, over 300 pastors in China have vowed to continue preaching the Gospel, even if it costs them their lives. The government is only approving only those individuals and groups who agree to a rigid, socialist version of religion tightly controlled by the atheist government. Pope Francis is under fire for agreeing to let the government appoint Catholic bishops.

In Kenya, a Muslim mob stoned three Christians to death. The three managed to flee into a nearby hotel, though badly injured. The Muslims relentlessly followed them and killed them.

Christians in the Central African Republic decided not to allow their country to be overrun by Muslim jihadist rebels who illegally grabbed the seat of power and have been slaughtering, raping, and persecuting the Christian majority. Not only have they retaken their government, they’ve obliterated 417 of the nation’s 436 mosques and forced tens of thousands of Muslims to flee. Still the danger exists from Muslim terrorists determined to take over and kill the Christians.

Persecution of Jews: Muslim activist Linda Sarsour is blaming Jews for policemen that shoot blacks. Islam and the Democrat left share similar agendas which reach new heights of insanity every day.

Attempts to delegitimize Israel are a form of anti-Semitism, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said at a high level forum to combat hatred against Jews. Of course it is. It is absolutely anti-Semitism.

A German appeals court on Tuesday ruled that it could not prevent Kuwait Airways from refusing service to Israeli passengers, even though it believed the policy amounted to discrimination.

Archaeologists believe they’ve found an ancient Israelite encampment in the desert, proving once again the biblical account of the Jewish exodus from Egypt. Jewish history in Israel is obvious to anyone, but those who belong to the father of lies willingly choose to ignore it.

2 Timothy 3; Last Days Corruption and Treachery: In another undercover video from Project Veritas exposing the Deep State, an IRS staffer says the agency should have been harder on conservatives during the 2012 election when applications for tax-exempt status were obstructed for political reasons. He said, “Yeah, I don’t give a s##+ if that is a crime for doing that because … you should give increased scrutiny to those groups….”

The European Union has sided with the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism by announcing that it will implement a special payments channel to maintain economic ties with Iran in order to save the disastrous 2015 nuclear deal.

China’s communist government is conducting overt and covert influence operations aimed at swaying the upcoming November elections in a bid to undermine President Trump.

Republican Senator Ted Cruz and his wife went to dinner at a restaurant, but had to leave when they were accosted by a leftist mob.

Feminist writer Jill Filipovic called on her Twitter followers to divorce their Republican husbands.

Two members of the far-left extremist group, Serve The People – LA were arrested. This is the same group that recently threatened someone for supporting ICE, called for a “sea of armed masses” to rise up against ICE, and encouraged their social media followers to carry out “revolutionary violence against the local government.”

Armed Leftists are calling for mass violence if Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Far left activists are already plotting their next move if Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed to the Supreme Court.

An unknown person located in the House of Representatives posted the personal information (cell phone numbers and addresses) of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, as well as Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch of Utah. All three senators sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and their personal information was posted shortly after each questioned Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh during Thursday’s hearing. They appear to be targeting Republican members of the committee after they question Judge Kavanaugh.

Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford, who claims without any evidence that Kavanaugh attempted to have sexual relations with her at a drunken party while in high school, turns out to have ties to an abortion pill pharmaceutical company called Corcept Therapeutics.

Kavanaugh Strikes Back by Daniel Greenfield: When Brett Kavanaugh showed up for his confirmation hearing, he was affable and cheerful…He complimented senators from both parties. He was a non-controversial nominee looking to go through the process and then move on to the Supreme Court. He would have been a moderate. He’s replacing a moderate. But forged in the fires of a lefty hell, Democrats may have just created the most conservative justice on the Supreme Court. “I have been to hell and then some,” he said. Kavanaugh and his family have received threats from leftists.

New accuser walks back claims against Kavanaugh. A woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her when they attended Yale University in the 1980s called former classmates to back up her claims and told some of them that she couldn’t be certain Kavanaugh was the one who did it, The New York Times reported. Wow, the NYT actually posted this. I wonder if the writer if still with them for telling a truth.

Senator Lindsey Graham has been accused before now of being a RINO, but he is to be applauded for his speech at the Kavanaugh hearing. See at this link.

A left-wing political advocacy group that vowed to inject 5 million into the effort of stopping Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the US Supreme Court has significant ties to globalist George Soros.

Far-left Protestors gathered for the Senate Hearings, and many were bussed in to disrupt the event – Soros-sponsored entities!

Also, a spokesman for Soros is acknowledging that he indirectly funded Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Globalist George Soros has his dirty fingers in everything. He’s trying to keep Britain in the EU. The anti-Brexit campaign group, ‘Best for Britain’ that recently received £800,000 from Soros, has ramped up its efforts to revoke article 50 by targeting voters in ‘swing’ constituencies.

Rush Limbaugh explained why the left creates movements like Black Lives Matter and the out of control #MeToo, and why they attack Supreme Court nominees like Brett Kavanaugh. Read at this link. He says they have a mental disorder, but it’s much deeper than that (and more sinister) as we Christians are well aware.

Democrats have long since hit the bottom of the barrel in their attempts to smear Brett Kavanaugh. Now they’ve busted through the bottom and are furiously digging into the dirt. Last night, they presented the latest Kavanaugh scandal: his yearbook. Apparently Kavanaugh wrote something rude in his 12th grade yearbook. This is supposed to have some sort of significance, though nobody can quite explain why.

The diverse hatreds of the Democrats: The Human Rights Campaign, the country’s top gay rights lobby, held its 22nd annual dinner. Top speakers included Joe Biden, who bemoaned the lack of acceptance for gay people, Anne Hathaway, who shrieked, “Let’s tear this world apart and build a better one,” and Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder, who declared, “The age of bullies and bigots is not fully behind us.” Holder would know. He was last seen posing with Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral. The leader of the Nation of Islam is both a bigot and a bully. He also loathes gay people. Hypocrisy from the left knows no bounds.

Former Massachusetts Democrat state senator Brian Joyce, who was awaiting trial on federal corruption charges, was found dead in his home. Foul play has been ruled out for now. In December 2017, Joyce was named in a 113-count indictment charging him with racketeering, extortion, wire fraud and money laundering.

Apostasy in the churches and 1 Timothy 4 doctrines of devils: In California, Grace Cathedral Episcopal church in San Francisco has been particularly controversial this year with its Beyoncé Mass, an LGBT forum and men cross-dressing as nuns. This month’s interfaith service focused on climate change, and features men and women dressed in tree-people costumes, accompanied by representatives of the Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist religions, among others.

Also in California, Evangelical College Azusa Pacific, which has 8 campus locations in the state, announced it will be allowing LGBT relationships for students on campus, after years of pressure.

Mega pastor Andy Stanley is attacking the Old Testament again, insisting that Jesus rendered the Ten Commandments null and void, issuing one new law “as a replacement for everything.” Stanley has adopted a virulent form of “replacement theology” that robs Abraham and his descendants of God’s eternal covenants with them. In fact, Stanley labels that covenant in his book as “temporary.” He claims that the idea of a loving God is a “uniquely Christian idea.”

The German progressive weekly Der Spiegel has ended its love affair with the pope, declaring that the Church’s sex abuse crisis is “increasingly about Pope Francis.” One Vatican cardinal, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said of the pontiff: “He preaches mercy, but in reality he is an ice-cold, cunning Machiavellian, and, what is worse – he lies.”

A report leaked by two German media outlets, Der Spiegel and Die Zeit, on Sept. 12 found that the German Catholic Church covered up at least 3,677 alleged cases of child sexual abuse by at least 1,670 clergymen from 1946 to 2014.

According to the latest count by the Chilean national prosecutor’s office, some 221 Catholic priests and 8 bishops are being investigated up and down the country on charges of sexual abuse and cover-up, all due to allegations made from the year 2000 to date.

The former Vatican ambassador, who accused three popes and their advisers of covering up for an American ex-cardinal accused of sexual abuse, has denounced Pope Francis’ refusal to directly respond to his claims and challenged the Vatican to say what it knows about the scandal. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano penned a new missive a month after his initial 11-page bombshell sent shockwaves through the Catholic Church. It was uploaded to a document-sharing site late Thursday.

In Chicago, the controversial Cardinal Cupich fired Reverend Paul Kalchik from the gay-friendly Resurrection Parrish for burning a gay pride flag that showed a rainbow and a Christian Cross intertwined. Kalchik admitted to burning the flag with assistance from a few congregation members despite orders not to, but said he did so a quiet manner. The flag used to be at another parish that caught fire in 1990. The pastor of that parish, Fr. Daniel Montalbano, had brought this flag with him when he transferred to Resurrection Parrish after a fire at his parish in 1990.

Fr. Montalbano was found dead in his rectory bedroom hooked up to a sex machine in 1997. Kalchik said Montalbano’s room in Resurrection’s rectory also had body-sized mirrors lining one of the walls, and two closets full of homosexual porn materials. Cupich sent two controversial priests to supposedly send Kalchik to a pastoral mental facility for burning the gay flag. Kalchik, who sensed danger to his life, took off and is supposedly in hiding. Kalchik was a victim of sex abuse as a boy and was raped by a Catholic priest when he was a teen. He and the others were tired of the gay sex abuse scandal in the church and decided to burn the flag.

Returned days of Noah and Lot: Children’s Hospital in Colorado has removed naming the gender from patient wristbands to support the many flavors of gender diversity.

A new law recently passed in California allows children as young as 12 years old to receive taxpayer-funded transgender treatments and services, without parental consent. The law gives children in foster care the right to transgender treatments as well as former youths up to 26 years of age.

A student petition that criticizes a Texas high school’s dress code as “outdated” and “gender biased” wants administrators to change the rules and allow boys to wear makeup on campus so they may express themselves.

Planned Parenthood convinced a hotel in Austin, Texas, to cancel a screening of a new movie about convicted abortionist Kermit Gosnell.

On July 25, the Food and Drug Administration signed a contract to acquire “fresh” tissue from aborted babies so it could transplant that tissue into mice. On Monday, the Trump administration canceled that contract. This is an unambiguous victory for the sanctity of human life. The underlying question now is: Will the federal government follow up on the cancellation of this one contract and completely and finally terminate its practice of spending approximately $100 million per year on research that creates a market for tissue taken from aborted babies? Not if the Democrat left has its way.

Pestilence/diseases: Gay and bisexual men under 30 make up nearly half of all new HIV diagnoses in the US, and they’re the only age group whose rate of infection is getting worse, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention. The number of gay and bisexual men in Georgia living with HIV jumped 70% between 2008-2015, making it the state with the fifth-highest number of gay and bisexual men living with HIV.

China announced a 14% jump in the number of its citizens living with HIV and Aids. Over 820,000 people are affected. About 40,000 new cases were reported in the second quarter of 2018 alone.

The number of babies born with syphilis has more than doubled since 2013, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

A portion of a water system in Louisiana has tested positive for a brain-eating amoeba.

The World Health Organization warned this week that the fight against Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo is facing a “perfect storm” that could help an outbreak spin out of control.

Monkeypox has now affected a third person in the UK, in Blackpool. A healthcare worker has been quarantined in an effort to prevent the potentially deadly virus from spreading. The UK’s first case was a Nigerian citizen and naval officer staying at a base in Cornwall. PHE said it was working to trace people who may have shared their flight to the UK. The second case was diagnosed in Blackpool in a person who had independently visited Nigeria.

Despair: The principal deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) warned that “Suicide – in all ages except for young children and the elderly – is one of the few conditions that are getting worse instead of better around the country.”

Wars and rumors of wars: Despite two groups claiming responsibility for the attack on a military parade in Iran (one: the terrorist group ISIS, and another: a group wanting freedom from the brutal regime), Iran still blames Israel and the US for the attack. The deputy head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Hossein Salami warned Israeli and US leaders to expect a “devastating” response from Iran.

An Iran video threatens missile strikes on Israel and the Gulf states. Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu warned the UN this week that Israel has uncovered what they believe is a “secret atomic warehouse” in Iran.

Russia’s Vlad Putin tested his new missiles by blowing up a fleet of warships in a training exercise.

The Pentagon is removing four U.S. missile systems from the Middle East next month as the military steps up its focus on threats from China and Russia. The US will also close its consulate in the southern Iraqi city of Basra, blaming increasing threats from Iran and Iranian-backed forces.

Russia blames Israel for the Syrian regime’s accidental downing of a Russian military plane in Syria, and is responding by delivering an advanced missile defense system to Syria. This action has serious implications. Israel cannot stand by and allow Iran to move weapons of mass destruction from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon. Add to this the other signs and the failing economies in Russia, Iran and Turkey (the evil big three), and we can see Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38-39 looming ahead.

Gaza’s Hamas terrorist rulers say ceasefire talks have halted, and they promise more border violence against Israel. The Gaza economy is also collapsing, and it’s the fault of Hamas, the terrorist regime that runs the region. This will surely cause them to wreak more havoc. The Middle East is a hotbed of tension right now, more than ever.

Islam’s agenda of world domination and jihad: At the ValleyFair amusement park in Minnesota, police and emergency responders evacuated all the guests after a mob of Somali teenagers and men rushed through security and caused several violent fights to break out inside the park.

In the USA, 650 Bangladeshi nationals were arrested in a single Texas border sector so far this year. Bangladesh is almost totally Muslim.

Canada is bowing to Islam, becoming more Sharia-compliant by the day. CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, described the suspects of armed robberies as “26-year-old from Brampton” and “25-year-old from Toronto,” ignoring the information provided by the Peel Police who identified the suspects by their namesm “Aynla Mustafa Hassan” and “Mossab Abdelrahim.”

The executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) was invited by Turkey’s President Erdogan and Iranian President Rouhani to meet with them in New York during the UN General Assembly meeting. CAIR is a Washington DC-based group designated a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates due to alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Cologne, Germany is bracing for protests as Turkey’s President Erdogan opens a mega mosque there.
A Syrian national recently arrested in Germany was part of an apparent plot to attack Israeli targets with chemical weapons.

Police in the Netherlands arrested seven men over an alleged plot to carry out a major terrorist attack. Three had been arrested previously for trying to travel abroad to join foreign militants. The man at the center of the group is of Iraqi origin, who was convicted in 2017 for trying to travel to fight for ISIS.

Japan doesn’t want the chaos that has hit Europe due to the Muslim invasion, so they only let in 27 Muslim “refugees.” Two of them have already been arrested for rape.

End of days technology: Is the rise of the robot the demise of the restaurant server, chef and bartender? Restaurants like Spyce are leading the way with robots that cook complex meals on-demand. Companies such as OTG reimagined the restaurant airport experience and replaced servers who take customer orders with self-ordering tablets. A study by the Center for an Urban Future found that the automation potential for waiters and waitresses is 77%. That figure increases to 87% when you factor in workers that prep food.

Surveillance society: A survey of the percentages of search traffic received by 36 U.S. news sites, including many of the biggest, provides stark evidence that Google, representing nearly 90% of the market share of U.S. searches, is playing ideological favoriteswith those leaning left and most antagonistic to President Trump and the Republican Party near the last stretch of the 2018 mid-term elections that could change the balance of power in Congress.

A number of Google employees are very concerned about Google’s “disturbing” plans in China. One resigned and 1,400 others signed the letter he sent to US lawmakers. Google’s work on a Chinese product – codenamed Dragonfly – would aid Beijing’s efforts to censor and monitor its citizens online.

The coming one-world government: President Trump is trying to stop the globalists from taking over. In his address before the UN General Assembly, he rejected “global governance, control, and domination” and honored the right of every nation to pursue its own customs, beliefs, and traditions, adding that the US will never tell other nations how to live, work, or worship.

If Europeanize were not a word, we would have to invent it, because that is what many are doing to America. Obama and his friends think America should not be exceptional. So they do everything they can to end its exceptional nature, and to make it resemble other nations. They are Europeanizing America. Yes, the “elite” want to Europeanize America. But in view of what has happened in Europe in the last century, and what is happening there now, this seems like a really abysmal idea. Keep that in mind when you vote.

Rothschild, Soros, Corbyn and One Europe – the Road to Global Governance. Corbyn is totally committed to mass migration into the United Kingdom and Europe, employing the Soros strategies of moral blackmail and name-calling in order to intimidate and silence any opposition.

The forerunner “Peace” Proposal: President Trump said he recommends a two-state solution and would like “peace” in his first term, but the actual proposal has still not been revealed. Egyptian President Al-Sisi said the two-state solution should be part of any American peace plan and that the plan should include principles from previous negotiations between Israel and the “Palestinians.” It would appear Sisi could be referring to the Oslo Accords that have yet to be “confirmed.” God’s will will be done, and Daniel 9:27 awaits to bring Israel to repentance and acceptance of their Messiah Jesus in the “time of Jacob’s trouble” otherwise known as the Tribulation.

Interesting tidbit: A 2,000 foot wide asteroid that looks like a human skull that was discovered in October 2015 and passed Earth on Halloween of that year fairly close, all things considered, will pass further away just five days after midterm elections in the US.
