Rebecca Allen is in Southfield, Jamaica, on the south of the island.
“It is incredibly rough here. Lots of things are flying around, the wind speeds are incredible,” she says, adding they have done as much as they can to prepare for the storm.
“My community was devastated by Hurricane Beryl last year,” she tells me. In July 2024, when that category four storm swept the island, it brought more than 12 hours of heavy rain.
Allen says this time around, her family is better prepared, but notes that this storm – a category five – is more than “anything we’ve experienced”.

Why is this report concerning a private bank in Tehran important? Given your interest in end-times themes, moral decline, economy, and uncertainty, here are the prophetic angles people often draw: It could be seen as part of a broader “shaking” of systems: trust in institutions (banks, governments) eroding. Economic instability and collapse. Many prophetic passages speak of sudden economic upheaval, trust in systems failing, and resources being unsettled (e.g., in the book of Revelation, markets and commerce that depend on certain powers falter). This bank collapse is one concrete sign of economic fragility in a major nation (Iran) which also plays a role in various biblical prophecies (for example, in the end-time alliances around Israel).

‘Not Playing Games’: Trump Responds To Putin Testing ‘Invincible’ Nuclear Cruise Missile Vladimir Putin on Sunday touted a successful test of his military’s new “invincible” nuclear-capable cruise missile, which means a next step of actually deploying the doomsday weapon as part of Russia’s strategic arsenal.

He was pressed on the issue by reporters on Air Force One regarding the nuclear test. “They know we have a nuclear submarine, the greatest in the world, right off their shores,” Trump posited in response. “We don’t need to go 8,000 miles. “They are not playing games with us. We are not playing games with them either.

Israel prepares for renewed conflict as hezbollah regroups in Lebanon After nearly a year of intense fighting along Israel’s northern border, the fragile calm established by a U.S.- and French-brokered ceasefire in November appears to be unraveling. Israeli defense officials warn that Hezbollah is rebuilding its military infrastructure in southern Lebanon and preparing for what intelligence sources are calling a “future war.”
The Media Line: Israeli Airstrikes Kill Senior Hezbollah Members in Lebanon Amid Ongoing Border Tensions Israel’s Air Force carried out a series of strikes deep inside Lebanon over the weekend, killing several senior Hezbollah operatives involved in arms trafficking and field operations, according to the Israel Defense Forces. Among those killed was Ali Hussein al-Musawi, identified by the military as a key Hezbollah weapons dealer and smuggler who helped move arms from Syria to Lebanon.

He was targeted in the Beqaa Valley, an area long associated with Hezbollah’s logistical network.
U.S. Government still shut down!!! Do any of you reading this post have family members or friends who are having a hard time getting insurance, or have kids who can’t afford insurance? For example, I have a grandson who can’t afford insurance and he is a American citizen. Yet, the Demarcates are keeping the government shut down because part of their bill they want passed is giving free health insurance to illegal aliens. What about helping our own first!!!! Does this make sense to you? The Demarcates are the same people who are trying to stop the police (ICE) and our National Guard from carrying out our laws. There is one side of our government working to bring down America and it is not Trumps side.

However, the cuts represent a relatively small share of the company’s total workforce, which includes about 1.55 million warehouse and delivery workers.
Trump administration posts notice that no federal food aid will go out Nov. 1 The U.S. Department of Agriculture has posted a notice on its website saying federal food aid will not go out Nov. 1, raising the stakes for families nationwide as the government shutdown drags on. The new notice comes after the Trump administration said it would not tap roughly $5 billion in contingency funds to keep benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly referred to as SNAP, flowing into November.

Wrecking Ball Politics: Swalwell Calls for Destructive Pledge from Democratic Presidential Candidates Previously, Swalwell mocked a female senator after she complained about being threatened by leftists. However, even on the Swalwell scale, it is hard to measure the depths of a member who calls for potential presidents to pledge to demolish the Trump ballroom as a litmus test for office. Consider that for a second. According to Swalwell, Democrats will only consider politicians who promise to destroy a $300 million building to appease the lowest common denominator of their party.
As you can see from the picture below Turkey is one of the major nations that will lead the Ezekiel 38 war against Israel. When Turkey is seen just North of Israel and God warned us the attack will come from the North, then Turkey’s presence in Gaza is a red light!
Why Israel should be concerned with Turkey’s role in Gaza Israeli analyst warns: ‘A grave strategic mistake’ for Israel to allow Turkish intervention in Gaza. An effigy of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu swung from a towering crane in Trabzon, a city in northern Turkey, with the inscription: “Death Penalty for Netanyahu” last week – a chilling illustration of why many Israelis oppose any Turkish role in the rebuilding of Gaza.

Scientists in Australia and New Zealand are attempting to use genetic engineering and viruses to make rodents infertile, for “pest control” Scientists are researching new techniques of pest control. One technique is to use gene drives, which involves genetically modifying rodents to make them infertile. Another technique being researched involves the use of viruses as an immunocontraceptive, which uses the body’s immune system to induce temporary infertility by targeting specific components of the reproductive process…we should ask ourselves: “How long before humans are seen as pests that they believe need to be controlled?
Romans 1:28–32 “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”
📖 Meaning: When people continually reject God’s truth, He allows them to follow their own corrupt desires — their thinking becomes twisted and morally depraved.
In Lebanon, sexual abuse and economic abuse go hand in hand Sexual exploitation of children in agriculture goes hand in hand with economic, social, and legal exploitation. “Farm laborer” isn’t even a legally recognized job — no contracts, health insurance, or days off. That’s if you’re talking about legal crops and if the laborer is Lebanese. What if the work is illegal, hidden in rural areas, controlled by tribal customs…and powerful figures from major clans? Ftoun recounts her painful story: “The first time I went to the field, I was 7. Within the first week, one of the older boys…tried to touch me in private places….My mother told me to keep quiet: “That’s the foreman’s son. We need to eat. If his father hears you, he’ll kick us out.’”
