WHAT TRUMP’S WIN MEANS FOR CHRISTIANS

Ray Comfort of Living Waters (http://www.livingwaters.com) makes it clear to Christians that Trump’s win is not going to save anyone only preaching the Gospel, as Jesus commanded us to do, will save people from God’s judgement.

Trump is not going to turn back the clock and restore Judaeo-Christian values. Jesus and in fact even the O.T prophets particularly Daniel make it clear that Jews and Christians are going to experience intense persecution, tribulation, and great tribulation in the time up to Jesus second coming to Earth to defeat the Antichrist army in the battle of Armageddon and usher in His Millennial Kingdom.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.Matthew 24:9-13

ANOTHER PROPHESIED BIBLICAL END TIMES SIGN: IRAN AND ISRAEL AT WAR

Shortly before 2 am in Israel on Saturday, October 26th, airmen and women wearing bomber jackets bearing the Star of David climbed into the cockpits of about 100 jet fighters, spy planes, and refueling aircraft at an Israeli military base. They were following commands from an underground bunker known as the pit.

Israel’s wartime leaders, who were gathered in the bowels of the military headquarters in Tel Aviv, had just given the green light for the largest attack against Iran in Israel’s history — and its most politically perilous. They called the operation “Days of Repentance”. The assault was calibrated to punish Iran for an attack on Israel but aimed to avoid setting off a full-scale war between the two foes involving American forces and other countries in the region. The attack steered clear of the oil and nuclear facilities that Iran had warned would prompt retaliation, and appeared to heed the caution urged by US officials.

The attack, however, marked a dangerous new phase of confrontation between Israel and Iran, which began striking each other directly earlier this year. It left Iran even more exposed to further air attacks, with Israel destroying several of the country’s Russian-made S-300 radar defence batteries, according to an Israeli official.

An Israeli official said, “The message is that we don’t want an escalation but if Iran decides to escalate and attack Israel again, this means that we have increased our range of freedom of movement in the Iranian skies,”

Iran “knew that Israel was coming, and still, they couldn’t prevent anything,” said Assaf Orion, a retired Israeli brigadier general.

This attack fulfills Biblical end-times prophecies of Israel being the centre of the world’s attention, antisemitism rampant, and all of its surrounding nations intent on its destruction. Prior to 1948 Israel as a nation did not exist. Its miraculous rebirth was the first and most significant of end times prophecies that would signal Jesus return to rescue God’s nation from destruction. We need to be watchful as we may have entered the last seven years (see post my Oct 17th, Where is Iran in Biblical Prophecy) before that happens.

TRUMP WAS GIVEN THIS PROPHETIC MESSAGE ONE WEEK BEFORE THE ELECTION

You need to see Jonathan Chan’s message delivered to Trump just one week before the election. It must have shaken Trump to hear Cahn talk about him being God’s chosen person for this moment in history and that even his birth date was proof he was God’s Jehu to restore righteousness to America. The message is delivered with such conviction it shook me.

As well, Jonathan Cahn speaks about the greatest comeback in American political history – Donald Trump winning the presidential election and what it all means. What is this prophetic moment and what will we need to do in the days to come?

Only God can save America, unless we see a revival America will continue down the road of judgement. Will Donald Trump complete God’s agenda for him? Jonathan Cahn had an amazing opportunity to deliver a prophetic message directly to Trump. He shows powerfully, from Scripture that Trump is God’s Jehu. God used Jehu to cleanse the swamp during the reign of King Ahab and Jezebel. Likewise, God is using Trump to cleanse the leadership swamp in America. We need to increase our prayers for Donald Trump so that he will complete God’s commission. Sadly, Jehu did not.

But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the Lord, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn from the sins of Jeroboam, which he made Israel to sin.2 Kings 10:31

WILL THE CHURCH IN AMERICA RESPOND TO THE OPPORTUNITY GOD HAS PROVIDED WITH THE TRUMP ELECTION VICTORY?

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil... that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. .” Ephesians 6:10-20

Ephesians 6 explains the spiritual battle that we are in and it urges us to put on the full armour of the Lord and then to stand. So the battle is never done this side of heaven. We have to continue to perpetually stand for the truth. The church in America has in the main compromised with the world just as Jesus said it would in the last days before He returns to Earth.

As a result of Trump’s remarkable win in the 2024 Presidential Election U.S.A. God has allowed the church time to put the country back on the right track. As Family Research Council’s (FRC) Mary Szoch said after voters knocked off three radical pro-abortion ballot initiatives, this is the opening believers have been waiting for. On Tuesday, “Americans … re-elected the most pro-life president in the history of America,” she emphasized. “Now is the time for us to work together to promote strong, faith-filled marriages, strengthen families, and create a society that values every single person from the moment they come into existence. The opportunity to build a culture of life in America is great, and we cannot waste it.”

We also need to remember, Hibbs said on Pray Vote Stand: Decision 2024, “The church needs a revival. We will still wake up tomorrow knowing that the church needs to turn back to Scripture — and pulpits … [need to address] through the Scripture the issues that shape our congregants and their life, their worldview. And so, we need a revival. We pray that this election is a little part of that, but the bottom line is the answer. Are God’s people stepping up? Are God’s people getting involved?”

Another thing Christians need to realize, former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann said, is that “we have a lot to be grateful for.” The Trump campaign is in a “good place,” she acknowledged, “[but that’s] in the natural. I felt like the Lord was saying to me early on in this campaign that this [race] won’t be won in the natural, it will be won in the supernatural. And I truly believe that we need to just keep leaning in [with] prayer and what we’re [doing]. Where Scripture has taken me this week is [to Exodus] where Moses is standing when the Israelites are battling with the Amalekites — and then Hur and Aaron are holding up Moses’s arms — all while Joshua was on the field at the battle. And so it’s both: it’s prayer, and it’s action.”

When the church does both, she explained, “then we see victory.” “… But we can never, ever take it for granted.” The reality is, Michele pointed out, “Four years is going to go fast. And again, we only have two years until the next midterm, so … we’ve got to get to work. … It’s like there was a party and the furniture is all broken and the drapes are torn down from the windows, and we’ve got to get America’s house back in order fast and do what the American public believes that Donald Trump and a Republican Senate and a Republican House can do.”

That takes work, it takes commitment, and it takes an army of men and women determined to pay the price to speak up — and stand up. Whatever happens from here, Tony Perkins (FRC) urged, “Election 2024 must not be the finish line for Christians in America; I pray it is a starting point. It’s time for the church to arise. Our hurting nation needs a revival that only God can provide.”

As I said in my last post Donald Trump will not make America great again. Unless God brings revival to America and the nation gets on its knees to repent of all its abominable sins: abortion, gay marriage, homosexuality, transgenderism, etc. God will not lift the judgment that America is already under. Sadly, I just do not believe Scripture shows that this will happen. We are already in the Biblical prophesied end times many of the Biblical prophesied end times signs have already manifested and persecution of Christians will only intensify.

Much of this post has been extracted from an article by Suzanne Bowdey, Trump’s Win ‘Isn’t the Finish Line – It’s the Starting Point’, She serves as editorial director and senior writer at The Washington Stand.

LAST DAYS CHURCHES LIKE THE EARLY CHURCHES DESCIBED IN THE BOOK OF ACTS

After spending over a year in jail in America on trumped-up charges, Torben Sondergaard is now transforming churches in Mexico. God used the time Torben spent in jail to transform him and to birth his book: 412 Days: Persecuted for Christ. It’s coming are you ready? Torben also transformed the lives of many prisoners.

From the depths of a small cell in B6N, Torben Sondergaard takes us on a riveting journey through his unimaginable challenges. As events unfold, he reveals the circumstances that led him to this small cell and the intense experiences that followed.

It is a unique book, penned with a security pen on paper within the walls of a small cell in a Florida prison. Accusations of weapons smuggling and human trafficking were thrown around, yet no formal charges were made. In these pages, Torben shares his real-life experiences as they occurred-from moments of deep despair to unexpected joy, recognizing God’s hand even in his darkest hour. From the cry of “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” to the revival that transformed the entire pod where he was incarcerated, Torben reveals the divine revelations that sustained him and the truths God imparted to him, to prepare us all for what lies ahead.

This book is not just an extraordinary story; it is a prophetic message for all of us. It warns us of the Biblical prophesied end-times persecution to come. It speaks of God’s kingdom and provides the strength to stand firm when the storms hit.

As you embark on this journey, you will be drawn back to the raw and authentic Christianity of the early apostles, who, like Torben, wrote from jail to encourage the faithful to keep running the race, no matter the cost.

DONALD TRUMP WON’T MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN

Please take a look at my post on October 21st, Kamala Does Not Have a Chance of Winning. In my spirit, I knew God would give America one more chance and now we know He has.

“We can’t squander this moment,” former Congressman Jody Hice said emotionally. “Underneath all of this, God is giving America a window of mercy. This has to be a moment when the body of Christ responds with gratitude and repentance. We cannot throw away this time of grace that God has given us.” Yes, there were tremendous victories that took place, he acknowledged, “but may we respond humbly and steward this moment appropriately going forward — and in greater reliance upon Him.”

From my viewpoint, the rhetoric from Trump last night when he declared victory for himself and the Republican Party shows he will not do the one thing that is necessary for God to lift judgment off the land. Trump needs to tell the American people that he and the nation need to get on their knees and repent of their abominable sins. Abortion, homosexuality, gay marriage, transgenderism are all an abomination to God and need to cease. Trump is pragmatic so we know that this will not happen. For example, at the Republican Party Primaries, Trump had already compromised his position on abortion.

Fortunately, God has told us how this era will end. So many of the Biblical end-times prophecies have already occurred. Persecution of Christians will increase as we enter the last seven years before Jesus returns to usher in His Millennial Kingdom.

I will do my best to keep you informed of where we are in the last days according to Bible prophecy.

BIBLICAL PROPHESIED END TIMES APOSTATE CHURCH

“When the leader of the largest African American Pentecostal denomination stood up and said I endorse Kamala Harris, he was saying: I endorse murder, I endorse homosexuality, I endorse lesbianism, I endorse transgenderism, I endorse every evil that Hell could prosper or bring up to [be] right. That’s wrong, folks,” Donnie Swaggart lamented to members of the Family Worship Center Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where his father, Jimmy Swaggart, remains senior leader.

You also know that it shows we are in the Biblical prophesied end times when Jesus told us that much of the church will fall away from the truth and compromise with the world’s values.

“The black church votes predominantly for the party that is anti-God. What’s going on here? What’s going on?” Swaggart asked.

He suggested that some black Christians don’t like it when he or his ministry publicly discusses the support Democrats have from black churches. Still, it needs to be discussed because Democrats don’t support an agenda that is in line with biblical values.

Scores of young COGIC leaders have since responded to Swaggart’s rebuke in an open letter, arguing, in part, that he presented a reductive view of the black church based on political allegiance. They call his view “not only an oversimplification of the faith but a theological distortion that borders on idolatry.”

“The Gospel is not the handmaiden of any political party or political movement, and the Kingdom of God is neither Republican nor Democrat. Such a mishandling of the Gospel is erroneous at best and heretical at worst,” the leaders asserted.

Sheard’s  anointing of Harris came after she delivered a message from Jeremiah 29:11 which says: “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”

“We are blessed because we are yet in the land of the living. You are blessed to be in this place today and we’re blessed to have, ladies and gentlemen, the next president of the United States, Kamala Harris,” Sheard declared as he introduced Harris to his congregation ahead of her message.

Harris then wielded scripture while encouraging the packed church to help God’s plan by voting.

“So church, in just two days, we have the power to decide the fate of our nation for generations to come. And as we prepare for that moment, I am reminded of the passage from scripture. The prophet Jeremiah wrote, for I know the plans I have for you. They are the plans for good. And not for disaster. To give you a future and a hope. Church, God has a plan for us. He has good plans,” Harris declared.

“Plans that will heal us and bring us together as one nation. Plans for freedom, plans for opportunity, plans for justice. But let us remember, it is not enough to just believe in those plans. We must act. Not enough to only pray, not enough to just talk. We must act on the plans he has in store for us. And we must make them real through our works.”

Kamala Harris is an agent of Satan who is the master deceiver and it is obvious he has trained Kamala well. Satan used Scripture when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness and Kamala Harris likewise quotes Scripture to tempt churchgoers.

WHY AUSTRALIA WILL COME UNDER INCREASING JUDGEMENT OF GOD

Recent anti-God expenditures and legislation by State Governments will ensure further judgement on this nation by God.

NSW MLC John Ruddick has delivered a powerful speech to the state parliament about the excessive funding of rainbow activism. Up to $14 million and at least 22 agencies receive tax-payer funding to support their ‘neo-religion.’ Ruddick has called for government funding to cease and allow these groups to continue only if they can raise the funding themselves. He noted that organisations such as ACON (formerly known as the Aids Council of NSW) served their purpose during the AIDs epidemic but have since had to “invent new rainbow causes that are so important that the taxpayer has to fund them.” When lobby groups fight for a cause and win, they don’t just pack up their lobbying tents and go home. Too often they simply find new and more radical causes within the same framework. Lobbyists who rely on government grants do not simply pat themselves on the back after winning their cause – they get addicted to the gravy train.

Ashlyn Vice, SA Director of the Australian Christian Lobby (ACL), says Mr Hood’s Termination of Pregnancy Amendment (Terminations and Live Births) Bill was a “no-nonsense, compelling proposition to change the process of terminations post 28-weeks’ gestation – offering a pro-woman, pro-child compromise”. “Tonight’s result means more South Australian babies will be needlessly born dead when they could have been safely born alive,” Vice says. “If passed, this Bill would have ensured babies in their third trimester would be born alive by inducing early labour in circumstances where the mother insists on ending the pregnancy. This was to replace current practice, which is to kill the baby via a lethal potassium chloride injection before inducing labour.” Vice says.

Our elected government leaders have no fear of God which reveals the godless state of our nation and an inept church. A church that no longer upholds the inerrancy of God’s Word and heeds the many warnings and signs given of God’s coming judgement when He pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements.

Read the first four Trumpet judgements and know that the intensity only escalates as God pours out His wrath with the seven Trumpet and seven Bowl judgements. How many churches are warning the world of this soon coming judgement of God?

The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.
The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood. A third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the water, because it had been made bitter.
The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.
Revelation 8: 7-12

WIND AND SOLAR IS NOT THE ANSWER: USA GOING TO NUCLEAR

USA is planning to convert closed coal-fired power stations to nuclear. Just as Peter Dutton suggests Australia should do with small modular nuclear reactors as well as new conventional nuclear reactors.

Nuscale Small Modular Nuclear reactor

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today released a report showing that hundreds of U.S. coal power plant sites could convert to nuclear power plant sites, adding new jobs, increasing economic benefit, and significantly improving environmental conditions. This coal-to-nuclear transition could add a substantial amount of clean electricity to the grid, helping the U.S. reach its net-zero emissions goals by 2050. 

The study investigated the benefits and challenges of converting retiring coal plant sites into nuclear plant sites. After screening recently retired and active coal plant sites, the study team identified 157 retired coal plant sites and 237 operating coal plant sites as potential candidates for a coal-to-nuclear transition. Of these sites, the team found that 80% are good candidates to host advanced reactors smaller than the gigawatt scale.  

A coal-to-nuclear transition could significantly improve air quality in communities around the country. The case study found that greenhouse gas emissions in a region could fall by 86% when nuclear power plants replace large coal plants, which is equivalent to taking more than 500,000 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles off the roads.  

It could also increase employment and economic activity within those communities. When a large coal plant is replaced by a nuclear power plant of equivalent size, the study found that jobs in the region could increase by more than 650 permanent positions. Based on the case study in the report, long-term job impacts could lead to additional annual economic activity of $275 million, implying an increase of 92% in tax revenue for the local county when compared to the operating coal power. 

“This is an important opportunity to help communities around the country preserve jobs, increase tax revenue, and improve air quality,” said Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Energy Dr. Kathryn Huff. “As we move to a clean energy future, we need to deliver place-based solutions and ensure an equitable energy transition that does not leave communities behind.” 

The reuse of coal infrastructure for advanced nuclear reactors could also reduce costs for developing new nuclear technology, saving from 15% to 35% in construction costs. Coal-to-nuclear transitions could save millions of dollars by reusing the coal plant’s electrical equipment (e.g., transmission lines, switchyards), cooling ponds or towers, and civil infrastructure such as roads and office buildings.  

Argonne National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory conducted the study, sponsored by the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy.

THE MYSTERY OF THE JEWISH NATION

The Jewish people have always been a mystery to the world. No people have ever known so much rejection, antipathy, and hatred. Joined to one land as no other people have ever been so joined to a land—and yet separated from their land and landless as no other people have been so separated from a land or landless.

Even before they went into the promised land God revealed to them through Moses their entire history, they would be scattered throughout the Earth but in the latter days, they would return to the Lord.

And the Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you. And there you will serve gods of wood and stone, the work of human hands, that neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul. When you are in tribulation, and all these things come upon you in the latter days, you will return to the Lord your God and obey his voice. For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you, destroy you, or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them. Deuteronomy 4:27-31

In fact, all of the O.T. prophets were given the end of the story for their nation, Israel, when their Messiah Jesus will rule all the world’s nations from a magnificent new Jerusalem for 1000 years. Check out: http://www.millennialkingdom.net

Throughout their history they have dwelt apart and separate from the nations as no people have ever been so separate—and yet so intertwined with the nations and critical to world history as no other people have been so intertwined and critical. No people have ever been so connected to their times and so transcended the parameters of time and space to become near timeless and universal.

They have been the weakest of nations and yet the strongest—the most vulnerable of peoples and most often in danger of extermination; and yet the most enduring of peoples. No people, while on earth, have ever so known the presence of God and the glories of heaven and yet no other people have ever so known the depths of hell. They are an enigma, an anomaly, a paradox, a mystery people.

The Scriptures record that God called them into existence. They were not chosen for any special attribute they possessed.

Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession among all peoples, for all the earth is mine; and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.Exodus 19:5-6

Israel was to be a vessel of God, a central conduit and instrument for the fulfillment of His plans and purposes for the world. According to the Scriptures, Israel stands at the centre of God’s purposes—not only in past and ancient times but in all times. They occupy the centre point of history and prophecy. And beyond all this is something even more foundational. In the Book of Isaiah, God says to the people of Israel, “You are My witnesses“. And thus beyond any work or accomplishment of the Jewish people is something still more critical and transcendent—their existence. The very existence of the Jewish people is a witness testifying to the existence of God.

There is a spiritual entity (The Dragon) that wars against the purposes and works of God and does everything in its power to thwart, attack, and destroy them. The war against Jewish existence is unlike any other. It knows no bounds of space or time. It is not rational or natural. It happens no matter what, no matter when, no matter who, and no matter where. It is supernatural and irrational, the dark and virulent offshoot of the mystery of evil. It is the work of a fallen, twisted, inverted spiritual and supernatural being. The truth is, the first of all anti-Semites was an angel. All who hate the Jewish people, all the anti-Semites of every place and time he is their father, and they, his children. The words they speak against the children of Israel are his words. The acts they commit against them are his acts. And so if we look through the ages at the attacks launched and battles waged against the Jewish people, we would expect to find there his footprints. And his footprints are exactly what we find.

Notice, that Satan is called the accuser: “for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.” Revelation 12:10. Therefore, we would expect the Jewish people to become the most slandered people in human history, the eternal focal point of accusation, allegation, vilification, and demonization. And so they have been and still are. Beyond that Satan is a liar, we would therefore expect the Jewish people to become the focal point not only of accusation but of false accusations, lies, and fabrications.

In the modern world, they are accused of masterminding virtually every major evil and conspiracy for the purpose of world domination. It matters not how groundless or far-fetched the accusations are. Their origins, as we have seen, are not rational. But they are consistent with the one, Satan, in whom there is no truth.

From Biblical prophecy, we know that Satan’s time of ruling planet Earth is coming to an end. He will have ruled for 6,000 years and then we will have Jesus Christ rule for 1,000 years to fulfill God’s promise to Abraham that the nation He established through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob will rule the nations of Earth.
