For the past year and a half I have been posting the signs of the times, which Jesus told us to look for.  Just about every day I give you evidence that we have already enter the final days just prior to the beginning of the 7-year tribulation.  It has never been my intention to scare anyone but lets face it, anyone who reads the warnings about what is going to happen in the last days should be alarmed.  Fear itself is not a bad thing depending on how one looks at it.  What did God say about fear? “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments; His praise endures forever” Psalm 111:10.  Do I fear the Lord?  You had better believe I do.  Not only do I fear the Lord but also I have the utmost respect for Him, for I know He holds the key to my eternity and where I spend that eternity.  It is because of this fear that God has given me wisdom to understand there is nothing to fear from Him if I am covered in His Son’s blood.  That fear has given me wisdom to know just how much Christ loves me and how now by that wisdom I am set free of the fear, which this world is bringing.  When I took Jesus as my Savior He showed me wisdom that those who are not following His commandments do not have yet.  One of the reasons why Psalm 111:10 is so important to me is the fact that the fear spoken about in the Psalm was the beginning of my new life in Christ.  I knew that the fear God speaks about changes with the understanding of God’s Word and I am no longer bound by that fear but understand why it exists.

Let me give you an example of what I am talking about.  Jesus in Revelation 13:18 gives us wisdom. I quote, “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred three score and six.”   Christ has given the believer all the wisdom they need to know what the Antichrist is going to do and what he will be like at the time of the end.  Notice that this scripture says the say things as Psalm 111:10 in that there is wisdom and understanding for all the people who are walking with Christ.  It is because of this understanding that I know Christ is going to remove His Church before this evil man will take control of the world.  Christ has given me understanding to know that unlike those of you who have refused Jesus’ warnings I have no fear for when all these things take place I will be with Him in heaven safe in His arms.

What can fear without wisdom do to a person?  It can destroy them and make them do things they never thought they would do.  When fear of the Lord is recognized and wisdom is imparted something happens that people cannot explain.  The best example I can give you is what happened to the 12 Apostles.  These men walked with Christ everyday for 3 years but at the every moment when Christ needed them the most, they all fled in fear leaving their Savior alone in the hands of the enemy.  The 12 hide themselves as they were overcome by this fear.  Even Peter who never would have thought he would deny Christ 3 times did so on the night Jesus was taken before the Jews.  But look at what happened to all of them when Jesus was raised from the dead and stood before them all again?  Jesus told them He would send the Holy Spirit, which He did.  Once these men were filled with Christ’s Holy Spirit they all changed and changed immediately. The wisdom of God had entered them no fear on this face of the world could hold them from spreading Christ’s Words.  In a span of 40 days from the time Jesus died to him receiving the Holy Spirit the Apostles went from being cowards and in hiding to bold men of God preaching out in the open to everyone. 

–

Why am I writing this to you?  To help make you understand that without this wisdom and understanding of God a person will never come to know pure life without fear.  Without excepting Christ as your Savior you will never be able to live without fear or the fear of what someone may do to you.  You are no different than the 12 Apostles; they learned this lesson first hand so we could live in their success as we walk in God’s commandments.  Take the Lord’s Words at face value when He says, “And Jesus told his disciples not to fear because God places greater value upon them (and us) than "many sparrows," even knowing the number of the hairs on our head (Luke 12:7).

–

Do you want to be strong as the Apostles were, do you want to live as they did after the Holy Spirit had descended on them, a life without fear, do you want to be as bold as they were.  The men who once hide in fear all gave up their life’s in horrible ways.  Our world is about to go though some of the worse times this planet is ever going to see.  It is no time to be caught without this wisdom of God and the knowledge of how to be saved in Christ.  This is not the time to call yourself a Christian but never read the Word or, spend time in deep prayer with Christ.  It is not the time to be without fasting.  None of us can say for sure how much time we have left before the final few prophecies begin.  We do know they are near for never before has all these prophecies taken place all at the same time in one generation as they are now.

One of those remaining prophecies involves Iran and Russia.  I have been asking you to focus on these nations because Ezekiel’s prophecy has not yet been fulfilled.  I keep telling you Israel is going to deal with Iran’s nuclear quest soon and by the news today it appears the time for acting is closing in on Israel.  I quote “Iran and Russia will announce on Wednesday a date for the Islamic republic's first nuclear power plant to go operational, the official IRNA news agency reported. "The exact date for the start of operations at Bushehr nuclear plant will be announced at the plant on Wednesday," the spokesman for Russia's federal nuclear agency, Sergei Novikov, told IRNA in Moscow.”

While Israel’s enemies are getting ready to start up the nuclear site Syria we just learned has built a missile facility. What is so important about this?  First of all, Isaiah 17:1 has not been fulfilled yet. This is the prophecy, which shows us Syria will be destroyed.  Israel had problems with Syria two years ago that could have lead to Isaiah’s prophecy from being fulfilled back then but the birth pain Jesus spoke to us about calmed down and now they are getting intense again.  Israel may have to soon face off with Syria again. I quote, “Syria has built a missile facility on the ruins of a possible nuclear reactor that Israeli warplanes bombed in 2007, European diplomats quoted a Syrian official as saying Tuesday. Ibrahim Othman, Syria’s nuclear chief, told a closed technical meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna about the missile facility, officials said. “He made a reference to a missile, one missile,” said a European diplomat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity under usual diplomatic protocol. “  I promise you Israel has their eyes on this one missile.  Is this the missile that is meant for Israel?  All I know is the places of focus mention by the prophets are the exact places Israel is eyeing right now.  It is not will there be a conflict soon but when it will happen.  In many of my posts I gave you reports that both Syria and Israel know they are going to be engaged in war soon.  These wars will be the fulfillment of the prophecies not yet completed.

While we are waiting for these prophecies to be fulfilled we see the world’s economcy falling apart and for good reason.  It is one of the ways the Antichrist is going to come on center stage and take control.  When Jesus came us wisdom about the man of sin and the mark of his name he also gave us wisdom as to this man controlling the economy by the use of his mark which will be place in the right hand or forehead as it say in Revelation 13:16.  Right now because of the global crisis nations around the world are talking about new financial regulations and a one world system to control the markets. In a report entitled “EU leaders back sweeping financial regulations” we are given information as to what they are doing. I suggest you read it.  All these things are not by chance but by design.  In order for one man to control everything, there has to be one huge collape and that collape is coming soon.  You believing me or not doesn’t matter but not believing what Christ warned is a huge mistake that you do not want to make.

Here is an example of America's decline. “The story of the shuttered Washington Mutual branch at 1364 E. 53rd Street is not unique. It was repeated all over the city of Chicago and nationwide during the five year boom in bank-branch expansion. The boom saw corner cafes, fashion boutiques, dry cleaners, and other neighborhood retailers displaced by bank branches willing to pay top dollar for central urban locations, driving up lease prices and driving non-bank competitors out. Filter Cafe at Damen and Milwaukee; the ladies' boutique at St. James and Clark; readers can undoubtedly supply many other examples of unusual local businesses replaced by sleepy offices with a few tellers and an ATM over the last half decade. As of 2009, many of the local retailers that preceded the branches are long gone. The news is that now, many of WaMu's bank branches are going, too. Fifty-seven of them by March 2009. For the retail fabric of Chicago's neighborhoods, the outcome is a net loss. On some Chicago blocks, there is now less retail occupancy in 2009 than there was 5 years ago.

If you aren’t new to my site you know I warned you to watch what happens to the other nations as America slips from power. Please check out this next report entitled, “Governments across Europe tremble as angry people take to the streets”.  This report will give you a short look at some of the nations who have already begun to see riots over the economic crisis.

Japan is in a major slump and this is going to be the cause of some huge problems for them in the next month or so. I quote, “Japan's exports plunged 45.7% in January compared with a year ago to hit the lowest figure in 10 years, official figures have shown. Imports exceeded exports by 952.6bn yen ($9.9bn; £6.8bn). It is the largest gap since records began in 1980. Demand for Japanese cars in particular dropped by 69%.”

You think Japan is bad read what is happening in China. “BEIJING: The global economic crisis has taken hold deep in China's impoverished countryside, as millions of rural migrants are laid off from factory jobs and left to scratch a living from tiny landholdings – creating unsettling prospects for a government anxious to avoid social unrest. With demand for Chinese toy, shoe and electronics exports evaporating overseas, as many as 26 million of China's estimated 130 million migrant workers are now unemployed, the government announced today.

Last night President Obama gave hope that America will change the decline of America.  The speech was wonderful but for those of us who know prophecy know things are going to get worse not better.  I saw a interveiw with the Fedeal Reserve Chairman Bernake telling us the recession will be over by 2020.  These are just words to cover up what is really going to happen.  Even the Wall Street Journal on line wrote about it. I quote, “U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke held out hope for an economic recovery by 2010 — even as new signs emerged that the recession and financial crisis are feeding on each other in ways that worsen both. The confidence of U.S. consumers tumbled in February to its lowest level in more than 41 years, partly because people are increasingly discouraged about job prospects. Two fresh measurements suggest home-price declines are accelerating. New Fed data showed rising bank-loan delinquencies. And companies from software giant Microsoft Corp. to retailers Office Depot Inc. and Macy's Inc. reported a worsening profit outlook.”

Of course Jesus also warned us about the many earthquakes we would see while all these things are going on.  Each day I try to give you a update on the number of quakes and where they are. Between yesterday and today so far there have been 8 big quakes.  All but one of the quakes was over at least a 5.1.  Check out the link.

If Jesus has spoken to your heart, after reading this information, please receive His call to you. Ask Christ into your heart by saying the sinners pray. No one can enter Heaven without giving his or her life to Christ. Jesus is waiting for you, please do not let Him or yourself down.
