As we navigate the weeks ahead—with nations at war, political uncertainty, and a planet groaning with birth pangs—I pray we’ll remain anchored in the truth of God’s Word and the assurance of His redemptive plan for humanity. The convergence of prophetic signs and the acceleration of end-times indicators should not fill us with fear or dread but rather with a sense of expectancy and hope. The trials and tribulations we may face are like the labor pains an expectant mother feels. They arrive faster and become more and more intense right up until the point something beautiful happens. In the case of our world’s labor pains, the new arrival will be the imminent return of our Lord and the establishment of His Eternal Kingdom. Tipping Point is a place where we can look forward to that eternity-transforming moment together. As a free subscriber, you’re only receiving a small percentage of our weekly posts and videos.

Here are seven things to be thinking about this weekend. 1. Wisdom from ScriptureIf I say, “My foot slips,” 2. Quote to Consider“The entirety of the Bible, starting with the story of how God created the universe in the Book of Genesis, teaches that sin has divided us from God. God gave us life in the Garden of Eden, but the presence of sin—our decisions that go against God’s law—has separated us from God. Though we are alive physically, we are spiritually dead because of sin. This keeps us from a relationship with God. As a result of our sin, our minds are darkened, our emotions become corrupt, our bodies age and decay and our relationships struggle. Sin has become such a part of the human condition that we pass this sinful nature on to our children and grandchildren, from one generation to the next. Spiritual death and the natural tendency to rebel against God are inherent in all humans.” [from my book Where are the Missing People? The Sudden Disappearance of Millions and What Happens Next] 3. Pay Attention to This NewsCybersecurity experts have been warning for several years about the vulnerability of certain American infrastructure systems to hackers. Last week, the petroleum giant Halliburton confirmed that it had been hit by a cyberattack that forced it to take its major systems offline. Halliburton is critical to the oil and gas industry, providing products and services related to both the exploration and development of oil and natural gas, and a major disruption of its services could have had enormous effects on the energy sector. Law enforcement is investigating the attack as the company restores its systems and assess damages. Another attack took place last weekend at the Port of Seattle, causing outages. One security expert expects more of these kinds of attacks: “These attacks don’t necessarily involve advanced technology; rather, they often succeed because of lapses in basic security measures. Mistakes, misconfigurations and a lack of ongoing evaluation create vulnerabilities that can be easily exploited.” 4. Comment of the Week“Thank you so much for the constant updates, it is greatly appreciated! Praying without ceasing for Israel. Have your way, Father God.” 5. Prayer of the Week“Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”—Luke 21:28 (ESV) Faithful King, we place our hope firmly in that coming day of promised rescue and redemption. We know it is drawing closer and closer. Even as chaos and uncertainty intensify around us, encourage Your waiting people that You still reign supreme over all human affairs and end-times events. Remind us of the unspeakable glory that awaits Christ’s coming Kingdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 6. Link of the WeekA new report published this week found that more Americans died from heat-related causes in 2023—the planet’s hottest year on record—than any year over the past two decades. The study was published in thee American Medical Association journal JAMA and found that 2,325 people died in 2023 from heat, noting that the official tally was probably an undercount. “The current trajectory that we’re on…is starting to actually show up in increased deaths,” the lead author wrote. The majority of the deaths were residents of traditionally hot-weather states including Arizona, California, Texas and Nevada. 7.
