April 16th, 2024
God is not a respecter of persons, what He did for one, He will do for you. In the morning of April 13th, Iran sent drones and missiles to Israel, and not one drone made it to the border, and the missiles were destroyed. Israel stated that 99% of the drones and missiles were shot down, by the Iron Dome (Israel), the United States, the UK, France, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan. There was only slight damage to the military base.
Last year, the Prophets had been declaring peace and protection over Israel before the war even started, and throughout the war, amazing stories have been coming out about God’s hand on the soldiers and the country. When Christians heard about a possible attack by Iran, they prayed. They held up their brothers and sisters in Israel and asked for protection and peace.
This morning, I opened my journal to Sunday, October 22, 2023, and read the first two lines I had written, “Battle Fatigue,” was line one, and the second was, “WOKE UP THIS MORNING SINGING, “Celebration time, come on!” Following those words, was a scripture verse that really talked to my heart: Isaiah 14:1, “The LORD will have compassion on Jacob, once again he will choose Israel and will settle them in their own land.”
If you have been following the Prophets, true prophets, you may have heard them speak a lot of dark, gloomy news, which they followed immediately with God upholding His people. If you are listening only to people who want to build up their platforms, or those who are hearing God’s warning but not adding the God part, it can be rather depressing and heavy to bear, almost to the point you feel battle fatigue and the battle has just started. If you are not listening at all; you have a lot to catch up on.
God saved Israel. Yes, the iron dome shot down many drones and missiles. Other countries helped Israel, despite the warnings from Iran, that if anyone helped Israel, they would become an enemy to Iran. It was reported that there were meetings between President Trump and England before the attack; and Jordan and Saudi Arabia even helped. I also heard Chuck Holten, a Christian War Correspondent say, Biden gave permission to Iran to send the drones and missiles. But God! All the glory is God’s.
Do you recently remember the Isis attack in Russia? The US warned them, but nothing was done. There are warnings out now for a similar attack in the US as well it is reported that attacks have been stopped in the United States similar to attacks in Russia. On April 15th, I listened to Brandon, of Last Days, a Prophetic Intercessor, talk about attacks coming on United States soil against Christian churches and large gatherings. (Pray earnestly against these visions.)
On April 8th, a solar eclipse happened across the United States, through the towns of Nineveh. It is also reported that a solar eclipse happened in the time that Jonah entered Nineveh and said, “forty days.” On April 5th, an earthquake hit White House Station, which is 40 miles from New York. There was very little damage. On April 10th, the devil’s comet became visible. During this time Cern started up again. Three rockets were fired by NASA in Virginia during the eclipse with demonic names attached to them. On April 14th, Klaus Schwab is hospitalized for an allergic reaction to ‘bug juice’. There are other things I could list, but I think you get the idea that a lot of things happened in a short span of time.
Christian and secular news reporters, YouTubers, and people with private websites, are talking fear of interest rates, preparedness, and hoarding. Prophets, pastors, and teachers are warning people to prepare. They are saying as well, a market crash is coming, 2025 will have a worse depression than the 1930s and it may last seven years, but God will keep His children. Election season is coming on fast so make your vote count, get out and vote for righteousness as well as pray over the candidates and vote who God directs you to vote for. I want you to understand, some prophetic insights can be changed by praying, and some things will come regardless. The church can push back on the harshness of a financial crash and pray that suicide bombers are detected and stopped.
God doesn’t tell prophets things to spread fear; but to get the body ready and prepared. The body is to speak against evil and talk and say what God says. God has been telling His people for years now, prepare, get ready. Unfortunately, even I was late getting out of the stall. Prophets are still warning to prepare, and that God will carry His people through the famine, just like in Joseph’s time. Joseph spent seven years preparing, and was able to keep people alive, even though those who didn’t listen to prepare, had to sell themselves for food.
I don’t think there are many people who have seven years of food stored up, but I believe God can and God will make a way for those who trust in God, obey God, and repent and turn to Him. I want to make this clear, we prepare in faith not fear. We pray in faith, not fear. Noah built an ark, and it took 80 to 120 years to build. He was inside the ark from 370 to 377 days. From April 8th, 2024, that takes us to Easter, 2025.
The depression of the 1930s started in 1929 and ended in 1939, the start of World War Two. A stock market crash brought hunger; a War brought unity. In 1939, a new fear swept across Britain, as bombs rained down and food became rationed and hard to find. The commonwealth countries came to fight with Britain, to stand with Britain as they sent men to fight, women who built bombs and learned how to cook on rations. Women who never canned before, canned. They learned to garden, to make do, and learned how to survive on very little and what it meant to sacrifice.
Those who have ears hear, those with eyes see that faith has action attached to it.
“Although they will listen to me, they never fully perceive the message I speak. The prophecy of Isaiah describes them perfectly: Although they listen carefully to everything I speak, they don’t understand a thing I say. They look and pretend to see, but the eyes of their hearts are closed. Their minds are dull and slow to perceive, their ears are plugged and are hard of hearing and they have deliberately shut their eyes to the truth. Otherwise they would open their eyes to see, and open their ears to hear, and open their minds to understand. Then they would turn to me and I would instantly heal them.” (Mathew 13:13b – 15; TPT)
Israel prepared. They prepared with training soldiers, building fighter jets, missile guidance systems, the iron dome and military equipment. These were not built in war time, but in a time of peace. Yet, all the glory to our God, for protecting Israel. Not one death, and only minor damage to the military base. Praise God!
“This is what the LORD says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s…Have faith in the LORD your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful.” (2 Chronicles 20: 15, 20; NIV)
I am not saying it is easy to step out in faith, and it is not easy sowing among thorns; but Jesus said, “Shortly after he hears it, troubles and persecutions come because of the kingdom message he received. Then he quickly falls away, for the truth didn’t sink deeply into his heart.” (Matthew 13:21; TPT) Are you hearing today? As soon as you hear this, as soon as you step out, Satan is there to push you back down. He knows the words that will get you to back down, to stay put. Jesus is saying you need to trust Him more than your troubles, more than your circumstances. Keep pushing against the darkness because light disperses the darkness.
Are we entering World War Three? Is there a great depression coming? Are the next seven years, as it was for Joesph, a great famine? The prophets are all saying a darkness is coming, but God will be with those who know Him, who are His.

Remember, God is not a respecter of persons, what He does for one, He will do for you. Take this to God and ask Him what you need to do. Are you to prepare your pantry and stock up on things? Are you supposed to move?
