A War To Win...

Now, more than ever, we need to storm heaven's gates and lift our hearts and voices in fervent prayer for Israel. We dare not shirk this awesome responsibility to pray for the peace of Zion (Jerusalem) and its inhabitants. Psalm 83 is taking place and Ezekiel 38 could be right on its heels. The Mid East is on fire, and God will not be mocked by barbaric hoards who worship a false god and his false prophet and call for the destruction of Jews.
A battle rages in the heavenlies, as Adonai Elohei Tzva'ot (the Lord God of Heaven's Hosts) sends His angels to fight against the principalities of evil in that region. We have the privilege of fighting along side them, and by our anointed, effectual prayers, we can help them bring down the dark powers. Gear up, Soldiers. The Lord of Lords is leading the charge, and we have a war to win!

IT COULD NEVER HAPPEN HERE

I am certainly not a prophet, nor, would I want to be one.  Heaven forbid that I would even sound like a prophet.  However, there have been many times when I have had premonitions about things that actually did happen soon thereafter.  There have been other times when I simply had a "gut feeling” concerning things that also proved to be reasonably accurate. 

I believe that Obama’s first term has been used by him to methodically set up the USA for planned collapse as a free nation.  If he is re-elected, a second term of controlling dictatorship and socialism could spell disaster, and destroy the USA as we know it.  Many of Obama’s programs and devastating Executive Orders designed to accomplish his purpose will be phased in during the next year or so, and very few can be reversed.  A second term would be like the Titanic backing up to ram the iceberg a second time.

The following random items are worst case and belong in my "gut feeling" category.   In my opinion, many of the items could take place during his next four year term, thereby forcing people to be totally dependent on the government for their survival.  With no third term in the offing, all stops would likely be removed to accomplish his devastating objectives.  

* Unemployment could rise to un-presented levels due to business cut-backs and failures caused by an imposed negative business climate of rising costs, increased taxes and fees, and added government demands for business operations. 

* Taxes will need to rise dramatically for all in order to feed the government machine.  The result will strangle the taxpayers, and will increase poverty and dependence on government. 

* Due to the government’s increasing appetite for out-of-control spending and with its lending sources drying up, it could freeze personal funds.  Then, it could “borrow” from the $7 billion located in various taxpayer bank accounts, IRA’s, 401-k accounts, trust funds, and investment assets.  The “borrowed” funds would likely never be returned because the IOU’s would be based on worthless paper.  Today, the USA is essentially bankrupt and desperately in need of money.

* Obama has initiated and signed hundreds of back-room Executive Orders for programs, all lending support to his dictator style of leadership.  Their primary purpose is simply to by-pass our elected law makers, thereby eliminating objection discussions and vetoes.  He has the power through Executive Orders to establish laws of his choosing for his purpose.  Our government law makers are rapidly becoming irrelevant.      

* Expect to see government control of ALL SOURCES of food supply, its pricing, and its availability.  Control the food to control the people…submission via starvation.  Also, fuel and transportation, energy consumption, purchased goods, housing, travel, firearms, medical services and pharmaceuticals could have stringent new restrictions with forced impromptu inspections to verify compliance.  Obamacare will ultimately be forced on all, and will cause untold numbers of fatalities from Death Panels denying needed treatments for seniors and “non-productive” people.  

* Nation-wide rioting could take place on a scale never before experienced…requiring that Martial Law be declared and enforced by the Dept. of Homeland Security, the military, and police forces.  Desperate people are dangerous people.  Bloodshed in our neighborhoods would likely happen.

* Reduction of our military capabilities worldwide, our catering to Islamic nations, and our refusal to identify and declare nations and peoples as enemies of the USA could result in a devastating attack within the borders our country due to our weakened position.

* Islamic Shariah Law could replace much, if not all, of the U.S. Constitution as the new law of our land.  That is already happening behind the scenes in many places at an alarming rate. 

* Bible believing/preaching churches will likely be forced to either change their message or shut down.  Some will choose to operate underground…hidden away from the public eye.  However, today, many churches would not be affected because they are already spewing out tolerant, non-offensive, watered-down messages that are deemed socially acceptable.

* Expect severe penalties to be imposed on all who are not in agreement or in compliance with new government programs and policies.  Among other things, violations would include refusal to embrace abortion, homosexuality, same-sex marriage and civil unions.            

* The consequences for those who follow a Biblical worldview could include being identified and forcibly escorted to detention camps for re-indoctrination…or, for execution if rehabilitation efforts fail.  A present day holocaust could be in the planning stages.

* The number of Muslims in our country has increased almost three-fold in recent years.  A short term priority goal of Islam is to destroy the USA (the great Satan), and Israel (the little Satan).  Thousands of mosques have been established in cities throughout the nation...signifying their domination of an area.  Muslims have successfully infiltrated every branch of government, education, law, media, military, politics, banking, private industry, and even religious denominations as mandated by Islam.  It seems that we are unable or unwilling to stop the Islamic invasion, in part due to our PC laws and tolerance mentality.  As Muslims gain a greater foot-hold, expect them to become even more forceful and demanding to achieve their objective.

* If Obama is a closet Muslim as is suspected by many, then, he must do his part to follow the Islamic mandate to destroy America.  His efforts during his first term have certainly set the stage for accomplishing that goal.  All support for Israel will be removed as well.  If he is re-elected for another term, I believe that his promise and mission to fundamentally transform America as we know it will likely be completed.  If that should happen (there is very little we could do to stop it), then, it will have taken 236 years to build the USA…and 8 years to tear it down.

Most people would believe that many of the things listed are nothing but conspiracy ramblings that "could never happen here.”   But, that is the kind of thinking that has blinded the American people to what has already happened...all the while believing it "could never happen here."  We need to open our eyes and think about that!

My Assessment of the Super Storm’s Aftermath

Several states in the northeastern part of the U.S. (primarily NJ, NY, PA, WV, CT, & VA) have been hard hit as never before.  The long-term effects will likely be even more devastating and more costly than those of 9/11.  Yes, the wind, rain and flooding has slowed and moved on, but the worst might be yet to come...and it could begin to happen quickly.

Within the severely hit areas, I fear that the situation on the ground might be much worse and less optimistic than people are being led to believe.  I certainly hope I am wrong.

A number of businesses using generators will attempt to limp along at reduced levels as fuel supplies permit.  However, it will likely take weeks, if not months, to patch the basic infrastructure enough for it to function in ways resembling normalcy.  The damage caused by “Sandy” is unprecedented.  Also, winter is only a few short weeks away bringing its life-threatening cold and snowy weather.

Consider this for those hardest hit areas:

* Power outages have affected many millions of people in several states.  Granted, power will be restored in various locations within a few days, but much of it will not return for weeks, if not longer.

* Loss of power means no heat and lights; no sewer system; no food available; no ATM or debit card usage; no credit cards; no local banks; no fuel; no shopping; and limited phone systems.

* Flooding has caused roads and bridges to be damaged or destroyed; contamination of potable water; extensive damage to homes, schools, and businesses; damage to electrical systems; damage to automobiles; and damage to subway systems.  Historical sites have been damaged.

* Public unrest will begin to set in within a few days as desperate people struggle for survival.  Widespread looting by roving gangs will surely happen as the "have not's" forcibly take from those that "have".  Desperate people are dangerous people, and innocent lives will be at risk.  

* Large areas will likely be declared uninhabitable...forcing people into mass shelters for extended periods.  Those leaving on their own will need to relocate many miles away.

* Thousands of people will be homeless for months or longer, and many will never return to homes that have largely been demolished beyond repair.

* Business failures will happen as they are abandoned due to destruction and/or lack of public support.

* The waterfront docks for commerce will likely not be fully usable for days or weeks.

* What has happened to the numerous nuclear power plants in the storm's path?

* Where will the billions of funding dollars, qualified manpower, equipment, and materials come from for the rebuilding effort?

* It is one thing for a disaster to occur with several months of "good" weather ahead, but it is quite another thing that winter is just around the corner. 

* In the coming weeks, many people could die from starvation, exposure, lack of medical care, violence, loss of mobility, employment loss, and the inability to mentally cope with their losses.

* Insurance costs will rise to unaffordable levels for many; food costs will skyrocket from the drain on nationwide supplies; and fuel costs will surely increase as well.

Our prayers must go out to all affected by the storm, for there are many who are hurting and under emotional distress.    Pray for those who have suffered the loss of loved ones, and who have experienced destruction of their homes.  Pray that they would lean on the Lord for comfort, strength, and provision...the only sure hope during the difficult days and weeks that lie ahead.  

We must remember that even after several years following hurricane Katrina, many areas in and around New Orleans have not yet been repaired or rebuilt.  In spite of best efforts, will areas of NY, NJ, and other states suffer the same fate?  In my opinion, that is a definite possibility.
