Pray for the sick

Jeremiah 32:27: Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Lord Jesus, your word tells me there is nothing too hard for You, I receive this word by faith.

Mark 10:27: And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Lord I am not concerned with what the doctors say, I am concerned with what You say. I pray that God the Father would be glorified in You and that with You all things are possible.

Luke 1:37: For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Amen.

Deut. 7:15: And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.

Lord Jesus I pray according to Your word, You are the incarnate word and through your blood all the promises are for me and are yes and amen. You promised to take away all the sicknesses and evil diseases of Egypt. I pray you would take away this disease according to Your word and Your promise.

Isaiah 53:5-6: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own . way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Lord Jesus, I remind you of the cross where You were wounded and bruised for our iniquities. The price has already been paid. I have put my trust in Your blood and so I come before you concerning this sickness. It is unrighteous to demand payment twice for our iniquities.

Col. 2:15: And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Amen, Lord you put the principalities and powers to an open shame before and I pray you would do it again by healing me of this disease.

Acts 10:3: How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

The powers of heaven shall be shaken

Luke 21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

The powers of heaven are shaken when the manchild is caught up.

Revelation 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

After the rapture there is a war in heaven and Satan and his angels are cast out of heaven to the earth. We see this war depicted in the Passover and crossing of the Red Sea. We don't see it on Shavuot. The woman flees into the wilderness is like Israel leaving Egypt. The earth swallowing the flood is like God parting the red sea. Everything about the rapture points us back to Passover, not to Shavuot.

I think there are several conclusions we can take from this, not speculation, but facts.

1. Pulsed frequencies have the capability of manipulating your nervous system. Granted you have to know the frequency and the proper field strength and the proper rhythm. So it involves significant testing.

2. DARPA has been experimenting with this technique for at least the last 20 years, if not longer.

3. This company that was formed by this man with quite a few patents and was working for DARPA did not accrue any known debts or assets. That sounds to me like an attempt to hide the trail. The patents were public and so anyone could find this man and the company he formed. But the paper trail ended with him. That is not encouraging to me, on the contrary, just the opposite.

4. The pulsed frequencies have very positive and helpful applications in a healthcare setting. But then TNT has positive applications and so does nuclear power. Does anyone really think that government intelligence agencies which have been trying for decades to get a handle on mind control will not use this technology for that purpose?

Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea

22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

This blog is a declaration of everything I believe and everything I am praying for. Amen.

The conclave of the Cardinals to pick a new Pope begins May 7th.

The word conclave means together under lock and key. Shut in together.

Now Noah was locked in the ark seven days before the flood which began on the 17th day of the second month. That means Noah was locked in on the tenth day of the second month.

This is further confirmation that May 14th, 2025 is the 17th day of the second month.

So let me go through this again because it is quite complicated but also quite elegant.

1. The year is changed by six months at the time of the Exodus from Egypt. So the second month for Noah is not the second month for the children of Abraham (which includes both Jews and Christians). Jesus did not say it would be the same as the days of Noah but like the days of Noah. So the flood started for him on the 17th day of the second month and it starts for us on the 17th day of the second month. These dates, however, are six months apart (which will also reconcile other parts of the Bible indicating that Jesus will reign in Hebron for 7 years and six months).

2. It is the second month for all those who are left behind, it will be their second chance.

3. However, for those who are raptured it is resurrection day. I have already provided the Biblical basis to say that Passover is one month earlier than what Leviticus says. Passover is supposed to be after the Barley is reaped, not before.

In addition to Genesis and Leviticus confirming this interpretation we also have the return of the Jews walking out of the graves and into the Land of Israel confirming it, we have this conclave of the Cardinals confirming it, we have the prophecy of Malachy confirming it and we have Peter confirming this by saying the Jewish leaders who deny that Jesus is Lord who redeemed us are false prophets confirms this. This also aligns with Elijah calling down fire because it was God that called for that gathering, just as it was God that decides when the Pope dies. It also aligns with Samson pushing out the pillars because that was a great sacrifice to Dagon and this is a great sacrifice to Dagon. That occurred at a temple to Baal and St. Peter's Basilica is a temple to Baal.

Confirmation that May 14th is Resurrection day

https://rumble.com/v6ss1k3-confirmation-that-may-14th-is-resurrection-day.html

I would just add that it will be both resurrection day and judgment day.

Consider Noah, when the flood came down it was resurrection day for those in the boat, they were lifted up and it was judgment day for those not in the boat. This is another reason why I don't like Shavuot as a type of the rapture, you don't see this aspect of it.

The same is true with the days of Lot. He escapes that city with his two daughters, that is a rescue for them, but judgment day for all those still in Sodom and Gomorrah.

This answers a major question concerning the Red Heifers, the Temple and Israel offering oblations and sacrifices.

Do they need to rebuild the temple first? No.

Do they need to sacrifice a red heifer first? No.

I have copied this video from the point where he tells us this, but I suggest you listen to the whole video because it gives his credentials as an expert on this topic.


This is a point I have made repeatedly, people who don't know the Bible have assumed that because the Jews are making sacrifices and oblations that this means the temple must be rebuilt. It doesn't. They also read a bad interpretation that says the Antichrist puts the abomination of desolation in the temple. That is not what the original Greek says, it says he puts this in the Holy Place, which you can have in the Tabernacle. It does not need to be a temple.

There is no verse in the Bible that says the third temple will be rebuilt by the Jews. According to the scripture the Messiah builds the third temple, and Jesus said He would build His church. That was Him saying He was the Messiah.

However, there is a verse that says the Tabernacle of David will be raised again, so it is quite likely the Jews will raise up the tabernacle during the tribulation.

There is an interesting correlation between Methuselah and the Prophecy of Saint Malachy. The prophecy was that when Methuselah died the end would come and the prophecy of Saint Malachy was that after the 112th Pope died the day of judgment would come.

After Methuselah died God shut the door on Noah and his family in the Ark on the tenth day of the second month and after this last Pope died the Catholic Concave will begin on the tenth day of the second month. They will be locked in at that time until they select a Pope.

We are told in the Bible that one day is as a thousand years to the Lord and when man sinned he was told that in the day you eat you will die. Methuselah lived 969 years and no one has lived a full thousand years. So it was, no one has lived more than a thousand years and now with the prophecy of Saint Malachy that applies to the 112 Popes in his prophecy.

Celestine II was the first Pope after the first council of the Lateran. This council effectively removed the Popes from under the authority of King Henry V. Prior to this various Kings and Emperors were jointly exercising authority over the Catholic church with the Pope. Prior to that Charlemagne, or some German king or French King ruled alongside the Pope.

I love how elegant this is. First of all, Passover is when Jesus was crucified, but if no death no life. Jesus said that unless the grain of wheat dies it abides alone but if it dies it bears much fruit. So missing the Passover the first time includes missing the rapture the first time. If you want to be raptured then you also must die in the likeness of the Lord's death that just as He rose you also can rise in the likeness of His resurrection.

So what is 2nd Passover, it refers to those who missed the first Passover. Missing the first Passover is not simply missing the death it is also missing the life. This rapture is in the likeness of the Lord's resurrection and they will miss that. Hence they will be left behind but they get a second chance during the tribulation.

So then, everyone defiled by dead religion thinks Passover was a month ago. But if you read Leviticus it is very clear that first you reap your field, then after you have reaped your field you bring your offering to God. Yes, if they were in Egypt Passover would have been last month. But Leviticus says clearly that after they enter the land of Israel and after they reap the fields in Israel. So we are not going by the harvest schedule in Egypt, we are going by the harvest schedule in Israel.

This means that we are now in the real month of Aviv, the real first month of Israel. But for those left behind next month will be the first month, the month for their Passover. For those left behind the rapture is during the season of Purim, for those that are raptured it is the reality of the day of resurrection. In John Lazarus rises at least two weeks before Passover, but the ones recording this are those that are left behind.

So Lazarus is a shadow of the rapture, it takes place two weeks before the crucifixion. What does that mean? After the rapture we will see a collapse of the world's economy, we will see the false prophets killed, we will then see Christians made into scapegoats and they will have to flee into the wilderness.

The church age concludes with the rapture of the church. But that coincides with the flood. All those left behind, who are not on the ark realize it is the day of the Lord. Sodom and Gomorrah are burned to ash. The flood wipes out everyone. And yet, God is merciful, people still have a second chance, but you can't put it off any longer, you will be forced to choose between the mark of the beast or the worship of Jesus Christ.

When I read that Samson pushed out the pillars during a great sacrifice to Dagon I saw that as a clue to when the rapture would be. It didn't tell me the day and hour, but I felt it would be during a great sacrifice to Dagon. I equated the pagan worship of Dagon to the Catholic church because the hat of the Pope is the same as the hat of the priests of Dagon. Then I saw that Christmas and Hanukkah were on the same day in 2024, so I thought that was a clue. Surely Christmas is a great sacrifice to Dagon. But when that was not the case I saw that the Pope was sick and it struck me, the death of a Pope would also be a great sacrifice to Dagon. Then I looked at Elijah calling down fire and saw that it was God that called the gathering. So it was a great sacrifice to Dagon, but it wasn't one of their holidays, it was a gathering that God called. Hence, I saw that the death of a Pope is when "God calls him home" and you would get this great gathering of world religious leaders all at St. Peter's Square at that time. However, if you look at the event in Samson they are not mourners, they are arrogant and rejoicing. The conclave where the Cardinals are all shut in depicts Noah being shut into the ark by God. The Prophecy of Malachy is similar to the Prophecy of Methuselah. Malachy said after these 112 Popes the day of judgment comes and the Prophecy of Methuselah is that when he dies the end comes. Methuselah's name can mean "Man of the Dart" -- indicating one who was sent. It can also be translated as "His death shall bring forth" -- but not clear what it is going to bring forth. However, Methuselah's death being a prophetic sign of the flood coming is not explicitly said in the Bible. We understand that this was the prophecy, but it is not a Biblical prophecy anymore than the prophecy of Saint Malachy is Biblical. Every word in the Bible is related to our covenant. There are several books that are not in the Bible and yet they are quoted and referenced by the writers of the Bible. God can speak in many ways, there is nothing that says God cannot speak through prophets. Our test of a prophecy is not whether or not it is a verbatim quote of the Bible, rather it cannot contradict the Bible. We reject any word that would contradict our covenant with God. However, God alone can tell the end from the beginning. Satan and the demons cannot do that. What they can do is "predictive programming". They can tell you before hand what they are about to do. Satan can tell you who is about to get elected Pope. Satan can tell you who is about to become president. But he cannot predict 112 Popes. So then this gives us two very good correlations with the days of Noah. The Concave of the Cardinals reminds us of Noah being locked into the Ark and it falls on the same day, the tenth day of the second month, that Noah was locked in. So, it is as Jesus said, like the days of Noah. It comes after the fulfillment of the prophecy of Malachy just as Noah's flood came after the fulfillment of the prophecy of Methuselah. So then that is a second correlation. Lazarus depicts all the martyrs of the church age that died, he was from Damascus and there were 11 Franciscan monks who were martyred in Damascus, he lay at the rich man's gate and in Jerusalem there is the Damascus gate and at that gate there is a Catholic Church dedicated to all the martyrs of the church age, the church of St. Stephen. Pope Francis was a Jesuit. This also fits the patter of 11 disciples from Galilee and 1 disciple from Judah (Judas). The Pope was the rich man who wore Purple on the day of his death as well as fine linen. He ate sumptuously, that doesn't mean gluttonously, it means he lived like a king. So this also fits the pattern. At his funeral all the religious leaders around the world gathered at St. Peter's square, that also fit the pattern, but they were mourners. At the inauguration of the next Pope which based on the prophecies will be the false prophet they will also be gathered and this time they will be arrogantly rejoicing and making sport of Samson. That would be at the inauguration of the new Pope which takes place at Mass on a weekday.

As you can see my educated guesses have changed, but the underlying scripture has not, nor the belief that the underlying scriptures are relevant.

Let me share another example of my interpretation changing while the underlying verse didn't change. Jesus said that when you see the fig tree sprout leaves know that summer is near and that we would know that this generation would in no wise pass away until all these things takes place. I understood that to be a reference to the Jews returning to the land of Israel. When I first got saved I was with a few brothers and we were theorizing what the length of a generation is. We thought it might be 40 years. Later we saw Psalm 90 and thought it was 70-80 years. 70 years after Israel was reformed the US moved their embassy to Jerusalem in 2018 so that did help indicate this was significant in this prophecy. Therefore in 2021 I thought that this could be a big year, after all in seven more years we would be at 80 years. We had had a global pandemic, they were mandating the vaccine, and the election with Trump appeared to have been stolen. Many things were going on, and of course there was the Revelation 12 sign in 2017. But when that didn't happen I had to reassess. I realized that a generation doesn't all pass away on their birthday when they turn 70 or 80. Moses was speaking in decades. According to that calculation 70 = 65 --> 74. Sure enough when Israel turned 75 it was marked by Hamas invading Israel and this Psalm 83 war began. So once again I adjusted my interpretation. All things will take place by May of 2032. On May 14th of that year they will be 84 but will enter their 85th year. But think how precise the Lord is. Technically 70 would be 65--> 74, but you can be more precise and say it is until Israel is 74.5. Hamas attacked October 7, 2023. Subtract 74.5 years and you arrive at the first month of Israel's Knesset. But with that attack we saw the significance of the Psalm 83 war. It is the first time in history this has been fulfilled and according to the Psalm it will never happen a second time. Because of the prophetic significance of these events, I became much more convinced that May 14th, 1948 was a very significant date prophetically and that it is the day from which Jesus was calculating "this generation". I also understood that a generation was 70-80 years as Psalm 90 says but that this is a reference to decades and they should be understood as 75-84 years. While Israel is this age I expect all the things of judgment to referred to in the 70th week of Israel will take place. That means that the 77th birthday of Israel is very significant and probably marks the start of this 70th week. This was when I saw that in Ezekiel the prophecy was that Israel would walk out of the graves and into the land of Israel, that was fulfilled on May 14th, 1948. That would be resurrection day. However, that is very different from the day the Rabbis say is Passover. So I reread Leviticus and it is very clear, the feast of firstfruits does not take place at the start of the harvest, it takes place after you have reaped your fields. That meant that the rabbis were wrong. How could this be? Well, according to Peter if you deny that Jesus is Lord, the one who redeemed us with His blood then by definition you are a false prophet. It was not hard for me to then decide I would not treat false prophets as an authority on this subject. But guess what, the rapture is also a fulfillment of Ezekiels prophecy. The rapture is a day of resurrection when the believers come out of the graves. Interestingly, May 14th of 2025 takes place at "second Passover" and so I was able to see how elegant the Lord was in all that He does.
