I feel like I never pray enough, and I don’t. Often I feel strongly that I want to do something more but go on to think that “all I can do is pray.”
All I can do is pray???
Well, recently, I came to a very amazing revelation regarding prayer and the fact that it is not “all we can do”; rather, it is what we “are” to do, period. After all, Jesus lives to make intercession for us. If He is continually praying, ought not we to do the same?
Romans 8:34 states, “…It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.” And Hebrews 7:23-24 also states regarding Jesus, “…But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.”
What I get from these passages is two-fold: prayer is beyond important, AND if Jesus is praying, I should be too. Indeed, it shows how incredibly imperative prayer is. Jesus is doing it continually on our behalf.Continually. He “always lives to make intercession.” And we are to be conformed to Christ’s image (Romans 8:29); we’re to look like Jesus. As Jesus says in John 13:12-17, “So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.”
Intercession in 1 Timothy 2:1 and 4:5 — “1783énteuksis – properly, intervention (intersection which literally “hits the mark”); intervention led by God, marking intersection between heaven and earth as it reflects the Lord’s specific will. See 1793 (entygxanō). [The root of this term is 5177 (tygxánō) which means “to strike, hit the bulls-eye” (“spot on”). Accordingly, it is used in classical Greek as the antonym of harmartia (“to miss the mark, sin”), so Lucian, Xenophon, Homer, etc. (see Thayer, 5177/tygxánō). Thus biblical intercession centers in waiting upon the Lord to learn what hits the mark (is His will) – i.e. guiding the believer to act as His agent.”
Intercession in Hebrews 7:23-24 and Romans 8:27&34 — “1793entygxánō (from 1722/en, “in,” which intensifies 5177/tygxánō, “to obtain by hitting the mark”) – properly, “light upon (meet with), obtain” (LS); “to go and meet a person to converse, consult,” i.e. to intervene (“intersect with”).”
Have you been wondering at all about what is going on these days? Like, why is the “vaccine” actually gene altering therapy? Why is there such a delusion regarding COVID-19? Why are violence and murder in breaking news apps every day? Do you realize that since COVID-19 violence and murder is no longer rare but is on the rise, and can even be called the new normal? Have you wondered about all the recalls of food products in the last year? Have you been troubled about why Bill Gates is buying up farmland? Have you been wondering about why so many crops and meat sources around the world were impacted in 2020 by plague and storm and man-caused, senseless slaughter? Did the stealthy news stories regarding the Abraham Accords not sit well with you? Have you been thinking about why there are so many preparing for war worldwide? If your answer is no, then what is uncovered below will be mind blowing, and you may even dismiss it as too crazy to be true. But the headlines are the headlines, and all of this is really happening. If your answer is yes, you have been thinking about these things or at least a few of them, then I want you to know that there is a reason behind what is going on; there is a cord that binds it all together. So, without further ado, let’s get started.
The Days of Noah and Lot
In Luke 17, Jesus said that the days of His revelation would be like the days of both Noah and Lot. Because He said this, it is imperative that we at least have some idea what those days looked like before proceeding to the real point of this article. If you know this already, feel free to skip this portion. If you are not aware, please do not merely dismiss this information as crazy nor simply accept it as fact. I encourage you to do your own research. My research began years ago in the late 90s, watching Evangelist Perry Stone. I’ll place the links below.
In Lot’s day evil abounded, so much so that there was and had been a great ongoing outcry unto God against the city. The poor were oppressed, visitors abused, for all the men of the city of Sodom (young and old from every area) were openly and unashamedly, even violently homosexual (Genesis 19:4-5); they condoned others who propagated filth and injustice, were habitual liars, adulterous, and were a torment to the righteous (2 Peter 2:6-9; Jeremiah 23:14; Isaiah 3:9; Genesis 19). Indeed, Genesis 13:13 states that, “the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.” And yet according to Jesus in Luke 17, they were going on with life as if it were normal when it was anything but normal.
As for the days of Noah, Genesis 6 tells us that the entire world was filled to the full and overflowing with violence. The thoughts and intentions of mankind were only evil continually. Think about that. Continually! They disregarded God by welcoming fallen angels into their midst to marry their daughters, and thus, they disrespected God’s natural order. They honored the offspring of these godless unions (the Nephilim), and walked in the occult by corrupting all flesh upon the earth. How did they corrupt all flesh? Genetically. That’s right. They messed with the genetic code of mankind and of all animals on land. And yet, according to Luke 17, they went on with life as if it were normal when it was anything but normal.
The Present Insanity
And yes, we are seeing this today. The new vaccines, in particular Pfizer and Moderna, are not vaccines. They are “gene therapy”. These two “vaccines” are in effect and in no uncertain terms, altering people’s God-given DNA. This is essentially violence to the genetic code, and is godless, immoral, and downright evil.

Moreover, while many in the world are smack dab in the middle of this madness and cannot put all the dots together because of it, Americans are somewhere between realizing that their liberties are all but gone and planning their next vacation or home renovation project. While the western world discusses the Oprah Winfrey interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and while many are beginning to relax into their new mask-wearing, fine-giving, tattle-tale, vaccine-taking normal, they seem oblivious to what is actually happening in America and around the world. Furthermore, they are even more oblivious to what Scripture has said regarding what is happening around the world and what is about to happen incredibly soon.
First of all, before 2020 began, the Noahide laws had been agreed to in a multiplicity of nations around the world. It was unprecedented that the religious leaders of Israel, known as the Sanhedrin, would be so respected by the world to the degree that countries would agree to recognize these laws — laws that on the surface appear benign, but the devil is definitely in the unspoken and unrealized details. To point out one such “devil’s in the details” problem with the Noahide Laws, the very first tenet in which they speak of honoring God as “one” on the surface seems safe. After all, we Christians can say we believe this. But, uh oh.. That’s right! We say that God is 3 in 1. A Trinity. Well, if we were brought before the court of the Sanhedrin (and yes, the Sanhedrin would likely be the one who would try the case) they would likely pronounce that this is blasphemy against the ONE true God, and they would condemn us to death by beheading. That’s right. Beheading is their chosen form of death penalty. Sound familiar? Think Revelation and those beheaded for their faith in Christ by the Beast system. It’s not sounding so good now is it?
While America was fixated on pursuing the American Dream, these Noahide Laws slid in in plain sight via president after president and was passed into law by our own Congress. Furthermore, nations of the world (upwards to 70) and even the United Nations were signing on saying that this is the best course for peace in our time. Again, this is not sounding so good. After all, when people are calling out “peace and safety” then sudden destruction will come upon them like a trap (1 Thessalonians 5).
Then, 2020 began with an unparalleled peace treaty called the Abraham Accord, and even more Arab nations have since signed on and made peace with Israel. And then, while many were in lock down and fearful of a virus that 99% of people fully recover from, plagues of locusts were destroying crops in much of Asia, Africa, Pakistan, India, South America and elsewhere, while strange dust blew across the Atlantic and settled over the gulf states; horrific flooding was wrecking havoc in nation after nation; horrible storms were devastating crops in the U.S., and farmers were being paid to destroy their herds of beef cows and poultry, and produce like lemons were recalled en-mass. And while food was being destroyed by both man, plague and storms, nations of the world were planning for and going to war like China against India, and Azerbaijan against Armenia, while Turkey and Russia and Iran flexed their muscles. Meanwhile, the nations of the world saw violence increase in their streets and homes, with murders increasing by upwards to 50%.
Some may merely shrug all of this activity off, saying that 2020 was just an all-around bad year. But, what they fail to realize is that these vary events were and are setting the stage for Revelation 6 to unfold even this year of 2021. For, all that destruction of crops and animals last year will lead to food shortages this year, and food shortages mean inflation, and inflation means loss of jobs and loss of jobs means hunger and hunger means famine and famine means death. Truly, an increase in worldwide violence, worldwide rumors of war, worldwide panic, worldwide catastrophes, worldwide secretive peace agreements, is the “starting gate” on the race track of Revelation 6. That’s right. The horses are in the gate. Their riders are ready, wearing their flashy jockey silks of glowing white, fiery red, inky black and pale, grassy green; they are leaning forward onto the necks of four magnificent steeds, crops poised. The snorting and pawing and chomping of bits has begun. The bell is about to ring with the words declared “they’re off!” But the crowd is mostly oblivious to this fact, and are focused on anything else (who else has come to the race, what they are wearing, what they are going to do after the race, who bet what, where their car is parked, whose child is going to what school, what vacations they are set to go on, who makes the most money, etc.)–yes they are focused on everything else but the race that is about to begin. Or… has it already begun? Are they are already out of the gate?
Revelation 6:1-8
“And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”
The White Horse: The Endless Search for World Dominance
“And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.”
The first horse out of the starting gate is the brilliant, bright, white horse with its rider that possess a bow already and was given, granted, gifted an elaborate crown which is a symbol of honor, especially in the Olympic or Isthmian games of the day. This type of crown was usually woven of various types of wood and leaves such as oak, ivy, olive leaves and flowers. It was a showy, winner’s crown, just like the ones that athletes competed for in the games of Jesus’ day. The bow that he holds appears to be one that he had before he was given the crown. The Greek word for bow is one that is only used here in the New Testament, and is something made from the simplest fabric. What is most interesting about this word is its root which means “to beget, to bring forth” and appears to be used mostly of a woman in travail or having labor pains. We know from other portions of Scripture that the time of Jacob’s Trouble also called the Great Tribulation is described as a woman going into labor (1 Thessalonians 5:3; Matthew 24:8; Mark 13:8; Isaiah 13:8; Jeremiah 30:6-7). This description of a woman in travail is used throughout the Old Testament to describe nations being destroyed and/or taken captive (Micah 4:9-10; Jeremiah 48:41; Jeremiah 49:22, 24; Isaiah 21:3; Isaiah 26:17-18; Isaiah 42:14; Psalm 48:6 etc).
Furthermore, this rider on the white horse is going forth conquering and conquering and conquering in hopes that he might ultimately conquer. This understanding is inherent in the Greek that is used. His conquering is ongoing, and though success is not assured it is very, very possible.
All in all, this is the horse and rider that ushers in the time of Jacob’s Trouble, trips the switch of all out insanity and begins the birth pangs of the final chapter of world history.
Has this horse started riding? Let’s take a look at the titles to articles and videos below and see if the presence of this horse in our world is made evident or not.
Quote: “Israel’s foreign minister will fly to Morocco on Wednesday for a visit that will help cement ties between the two countries less than a year after they signed a deal to normalize relations…The visit will be the first by an Israeli minister since the signing of the “Abraham Accords,” the U.S.-brokered normalization agreements between Israel and four Arab states: Morocco, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Sudan.”
Quote: “As the world marks the first anniversary of the Abraham Accords, highlighting the new relationship between United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Israel, the Chief Rabbinate in the UAE has created a special prayer for synagogues around the world to mark the historic occasion.The prayer will be distributed to more than 1,000 synagogues around the world, including those associated with the Rabbinical Council of America…“We are very excited to celebrate the first anniversary with the rest of the region and prayer is one way we can do that,” said Senior Rabbi Dr. Elie Abadie. “Our community has had the opportunity to host many Emiratis for Shabbat (Sabbath – ed.) over the last year and we have had dynamic conversations about our commonalities and what unites us. This prayer furthers that.””
Quote: ““The Jerusalem Center is the first research institute in Israel to sign cooperation agreements with think tanks in both the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. We intend to expand collaboration to other countries within the framework of the Abraham Accords and beyond,” the JCPA said in a statement.Gold said the following before the signing ceremony: “We at the JCPA decided to create a network of research institutes in the Persian Gulf region and in other countries. Our goal is to create an array of cooperation agreements with the countries of the Abraham Accords and to convey a message to the United States, Europe and other countries of a realistic understanding of the challenges that we share – the danger of Iran’s policies in the region and in the world.”
Quote: “India’s air force chief is wrapping up a four-day visit to Israel on Friday, amid mounting outrage in New Delhi over the government’s alleged use of Israeli spyware to hack the phones of opposition parties, journalists and activists.Air force chief RKS Bhadauria arrived in Israel on Tuesday after visiting the United Arab Emirates, where he held meetings with his Emirati counterpart Major General Ibrahim Nasser M Al Alawi, the Indian air force reported. “As strategic partners, India and Israel enjoy strong, multi-dimensional ties, an important pillar of which is defence cooperation & military level exchanges,” the Indian air force said in a statement on Twitter.”Both sides will discuss enhancement in the depth and scope of bilateral exchanges between the two Air Forces,” it added.”… Bhadauria’s visit comes just weeks after a consortium of media organisations reported that 50,000 phone numbers had been earmarked for potential surveillance by the military grade Pegasus software, sold by Israeli company NSO Group to clients around the world… Though NSO’s client in India is yet to be confirmed, the military-grade software is only sold to governments, placing Narendra Modi’s government under heightened scrutiny. Neither the Indian government nor NSO has denied working with each other…”This organisation [NSO] cannot work without the knowledge of the Israeli establishment, so here is a case where the Israeli establishment is involved in keeping an eye on Indian public personalities, but the government is unmoved and enhancing its military relationship with Israel. This is how this government works.””
Quote: “The recent conflict between Hamas and Israel didn’t circumvent Israel growing relations with the UAE and even response from Saudi Arabia and a few Gulf partners, including Oman and Bahrain, sanctioned a needed legitimacy to foresee a possible alliance in the aftermath of Abraham accord.If one talks about the geostrategic complexities, India stands closer to achieve some significant space in this new shift…The Abraham Accord has the potential to change old narratives on Israel, and India can play a more aggressive role in the region. The UAE role is most important here and this will also establish when and how Saudi Arabia would officially join this new alliance. At the bilateral level, Saudi-Israel relation is still shaped in secrecy…Indian story needs a change both in perception and in reality. In the aftermath of the Abraham Accord, these emerging contacts among India, Israel and the Gulf countries can serve the interest of all parties based on mutual trust and shared strategic values.”
Quote: “Morocco is the fourth Arab nation to sign the Abraham Accords that formalized normalization of diplomatic ties between Israel, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Sudan. Morocco joined the “circle of peace” a few weeks later. The history-making Accords, signed last September, were brokered by then-US President Donald Trump.”
Quote: “In a historic first for the Gulf nations, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) opened its Embassy on Wednesday in the financial heart of Israel, the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) building.The UAE thus has become the first Gulf nation to establish an embassy in the Jewish State. Israel established its embassy in the UAE last month…Since the normalization of ties . . . we have seen for the first time discussions on trade and investment opportunities,” said the UAE Ambassador. “We signed major agreements across various fields including economy, air travel, technology and culture.”Israel’s president called the opening of the UAE Embassy “an important milestone in our journey towards the future, peace, prosperity and security” for the Middle East. “Seeing the Emirati flag flying proudly in Tel Aviv might have seemed like a far-fetched dream about a year ago. In many ways nothing could be more natural and normal.”Diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE were established last September with the creation of the Abraham Accords the agreement brokered by America’s then-President Donald Trump that documents the normalization of ties between Israel, the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and shortly after also Morocco as well.””
Quote: “Countries from all over the world are cooperating with Israel in the field of agriculture. This agreement is another opportunity for further promotion and establishment in the world of agrotech,” the ministry said.Water recovery is another area in which Israel leads the world, and is another way in which Israel is working to deal with climate change.The United Arab Emirates uses about 200 cubic meters per capita per year sources said, noting that is twice the amount in Israel. There is a shortage of groundwater reservoirs, a high amount of salinity in the existing groundwater and thus its limited use.
Quote: “The two countries announced Saturday that Israel would sell 50 million cubic meters of water.Herzog’s office said in a statement that Abdullah “expressed his satisfaction after the return of the diplomatic ties between the two countries to their correct path”.The president was quoted as saying he wanted to strengthen economic and tourism ties between the two countries…Jordan is one of the world’s most water-deficient countries and experts say the country has been grappling with one of the most severe droughts in its history.”
Quote: “The flights operated by Israeli and Moroccan airlines will significantly promote tourism and business traffic between the countries,” the Foreign Ministry said. Morocco is one of four Arab countries, along with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Sudan, to normalize ties with Israel under the Abraham Accords brokered by former US president Donald Trump.”
Quote: “A Moroccan air force plane touched down in Israel’s Hatzor Air Base on Sunday morning, reportedly to take part in a multinational Israeli Air Force exercise later this month.The highly irregular landing of the Royal Moroccan Air Force C-130 cargo plane at the Hatzor Air Base near Ashdod was visible on public flight-tracking software, where it was quickly spotted by a number of amateur radar watchers, one of whom shared the information with The Times of Israel.”
Quote: “Indications of a radical policy turnaround in Riyadh towards jumping aboard the peace wagon rolling forward between Gulf nations and Israel were highlighted in a column published on July 1 by Asharq Al-Awsat, the London- based publication close to the Saudi royal house. Last week’s visit by Foreign Minister Yair Lapid to the United Arab Republic and Bahran, the first by an Israeli minister to the signatories of the Abraham Accords, was extensively covered in the Saudi media as a historic event, the columnist noted. One paper front-paged a picture of Lapid backed by the Israeli flag, And TV channels have begun inviting Israeli pundits to live talk shows, often introducing them as experts “in Jerusalem.”Decades-long taboos are being tossed, as the Saudis eye the booming trade ties their neighbors are binding with the Jewish state.”
“A World Guided by the Seven Noahide Laws,” September 10, 2020, https://www.jerusalem-herald.com/single-post/2020/09/10/A-World-Guided-by-the-Seven-Noahide-LawsQuote: The Noahide Law “wisdom has been recognized by non Jews in modern times. In 1991, the U.S. Congress enacted a law recognizing their universal truths…In 2013, members of the U.N. gathered in New York to learn how the Seven Noahide Laws must play a key role in international efforts for world peace…”
“Have the Noahide Laws been recognized by any governments?” December 27, 2017, https://www.noahide-academy.com/noahide-world/noahide-laws-recognized-by-governments/Quote: “The universality of these principles and global import was recognized in 1982 by President Ronald Reagan…in 1989, President George H.W. Bush…Both the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States Congress in 1991…Other world leaders have joined the call for further observance and knowledge of these laws. For example, Herman Van Rompuy, President of the European Union wrote (in July, 2014) that he seeks greater “dissemination of the universal values known as the Noahide Laws,” and Major General Michael Jeffery, Governor General of Australia, lamenting family breakdowns and drug and alcohol abuse in modern society in a 2008 letter, wrote that he believed that observing the fundamental values of the Noahide Laws can be an antidote to such ills of society.”
“President Trump silently affirms the Jewish Noahide Laws Thursday, April 4, 2019,” April 2020, https://thetruthersjournal.home.blog/2020/04/02/president-trump-silently-affirms-the-jewish-noahide-laws-thursday-april-4-2019/Quote: “Donald Trump has signed the Education Day U.S.A. proclamation every year of his presidency since he has been in office, yet his versions of the proclamations do not mention the Jewish Noahide Laws, only the importance of “education” and the remembrance of Rabbi Schneerson who dedicated much of his life to advancing the Noahide agenda. Even though Trump’s versions of the resolution do not mention Noahide Law, the Chabad-Lubavitch website reminds us that the Jewish Noahide Laws are the “unifying idea” of all these proclamations, including Trump’s, and are what our presidents are referring to when they say “education”. Jewish Noahide Law calls for the death of anyone practicing idolatry, blasphemy or sexual morality, it also obligates non-Jews to set up courts to carry out these executions.”
“Trump meets with Chabad rabbis in Oval Office,” March 29, 2018, https://www.timesofisrael.com/trump-meets-with-chabad-rabbis-in-oval-office/Quote: “President Donald Trump issued a proclamation in honor of Education and Sharing Day, marking the anniversary of the birth of the last Lubavitcher rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson.Trump met Monday in the Oval Office with a delegation of rabbis from the Chabad-Lubavitch movement….Six other presidents, from Jimmy Carter to Barack Obama, have designated March 27 as Education and Sharing Day.” And again, all of this has to do with the Noahide Laws.
“President, Governors Declare Education Day,” April 16, 2019, https://collive.com/50-states-designate-education-day/Note: This again has to do with the Noahide Laws. Why would the governors of the states of the U.S. want to celebrate and want us to celebrate a rabbi of the Chabad Lubavitch (Kabbalist) movement (their seventh leader) who is recognized by some as a/the messiah, and some even think he is still alive?
“Sanhedrin to Host Conference of 70 Nations to Take Place on Anniversary of Creation of the World: Nations Answer Call,” July 10, 2019, https://www.israel365news.com/133127/sanhedrin-calls-conference-70-nations-take-place-anniversary-creation-world-nations-answer-call/Quote: “On September 26, the Sanhedrin will be hosting the first conference of the Organization of 70 Nations at which representatives of several nations will attend. The conference is to bring together all of the nations under the common belief in the sanctity of the Bible and the sanctity of all of mankind. The members of the organization agree to the sanctity of Jerusalem and the Temple’s, as well as the sanctity of God’s covenant established with all of mankind throughNoah. Every nation and ethnic group who sees itself as part of humanity and therefore accepts responsibility to join in a universal covenant of brotherhood of peace is invited to take their place in this Organization of 70 Nations.”
“THE JERUSALEM SANHEDRIN PREPARES TO ENFORCETHE TALMUDIC NOAHIDE LAWS,” https://watch-unto-prayer.org/eretz-israel-last-trump-noahide-laws.htmlQuote: “…approximately one thousand people gathered at the foot of the Temple Mount for the World Creation Concert. However, what took place was not merely wonderful music accompanied by a spectacular light show: the event actually encapsulated several prophetic incidents taking place at once. In the not-so-distant future, the event may be identified as the moment a new, Biblically correct United Nations was established, potentially leading to a new era of global cooperation…“For several months preceding the event, the Sanhedrin had worked to contact foreign governments, inviting them to take their place as representatives of the 70 nations who populated the world, listed in the Bible as the grandsons of Noah. Honduras, Guatemala and Mexico answered the call, sending high-ranking delegations to attend.”

“And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.”
And then the fiery Red Horse emerges from the starting gate, and his rider is granted permission to take peace–physical, emotional, spiritual, financial– from the earth by spreading violence and propagating fear far and wide. The word “power” is no where in the Greek, but this rider is given the okay to spread mayhem and unrest everywhere. People everywhere will have all physical security, personal health and well-being, restful vacations, emotional clarity –no matter how illusory or imagined– snatched from them by this rider.
Not only is he given permission to destroy all forms of emotional, spiritual, financial and physical health from the earth, he is also given a great sword. The word for great implies that this sword will be felt and experienced worldwide. The sword that he is given is a machaira, which is a Greek word for a small sword and/or large dagger otherwise called a slaughter knife. This sword was not to injure an opponent, but was all about stabbing for the purpose of killing the person and destroying peace. It was a weapon of war. And this weapon is given to this rider in order that people will kill, and this word “kill” was used regarding violently butchering an animal for sacrifice. It is a gory and bloody word.
Can this horse have to do with war? Yes. It can. But, it does not have to either. Really it is all about individuals slaughtering each other for no apparent reason and/or for the reason of human sacrifice.
Now, let’s take a look at a host of evidence of this horse’s presence in our world right now. Take a look at the titles to articles and videos below.
Though the Navy is conducting large scale exercises across 17 time zones worldwide, the military aircraft activity happening over the U.S. is not only the Navy. Yes, the Navy’s planes are over the sea, and a few are over the U.S. But, most are not Navy. What this former Special Ops member is saying is that there are a lot of “heavies” moving in the U.S. skies which are not related to this Navy exercise. “From Noon-7pm”, he counted 107 “supply craft” “moving across the U.S.” This includes C-17s, C-130s, and C-5s in the “U.S. only.” These are aircraft that move supplies and military equipment or even troops. On Saturdays he watches the movement of military planes a lot, but has never seen it this heavy on a Saturday. He speaks about this at about the 29 minute mark.
Quote: “LSE 2021 is a globally integrated exercise designed to test advanced warfare concepts across the full-range of maritime and amphibious operations under Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO). LSE 2021 will take place Aug. 3-16, 2021, in the U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. Fleet Forces, and U.S. Naval Forces Europe areas of operation.”
Quote: “Mukadam was the daughter of a diplomat, and her status as a member of the country’s elite has shone a spotlight on the relentless and growing violence against women in Pakistan, said prominent rights activist Tahira Abdullah. But the majority of women who are victims of such violence are among the country’s poor and middle class, and their deaths are often not reported or, when they are, often ignored.”
Quote: “Did you know that the U.S. has averaged more than one and a half mass shootings a day so far this year? I know that sounds crazy, but it is true. Monday will be the 200th day of the year, and according to Wikipedia there have been 327 mass shootings up to this point in 2021. And actually the information on Wikipedia does not include all of the most recent mass shootings, and so the true number is actually a little higher. But you can’t really blame Wikipedia, because it is extremely difficult to keep up with all of the mass shootings that are happening these days. In fact, each one barely even makes a blip in the news before the next one happens.

The Black Horse: Bondage Because of Economic Upheaval
“And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.”
This inky Black Horse comes next, and his rider is carrying a pair of balances and great economic upheaval follows. The Greek word for “pair of scales” is actually the word usually translated “a yoke”, and carries with it the Jewish concept of being coupled together, working together like a pair of oxen who are “yoked” together in order to bear or pull a heavy burden and move as one. This is its literal use. It’s figurative usage refers to enslavement or being obligated to someone because of debt. And thus, one would go into servitude to pay off the debt.
Thus, there is more to this word than merely the cost of food. It is rife with servitude and hard labor wherein everyone will be joined together in the struggle and be unified in their enslavement because of extreme inflation. This inflation will unite everyone under a heavy yoke of bondage.
Is this horse at work yet today? Though it does not appear to be in full swing as of yet, what is evident is that food shortages and famine –because of locust plagues, recalls of produce, and the destruction of perfectly good beef/poultry– are immanent. Not only this, but with people losing their businesses because of lockdowns in 2020 and because of employees losing their jobs in 2020, the stage has been set for this dark horse to emerge strong and commanding in 2021. Below are headlines to prove this grave fact.
Quote: “There is no religious exemption in Catholicism,” Holtschneider said (president of the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities), citing Vatican teaching on the matter. He notes that they may accept other religions as a basis for exemption…
“Dr. Jeffrey C. Barrows, senior vice president of bioethics and public policy at the Christian Medical & Dental Associations, started fielding similar calls in late July, maybe a half dozen so far, from colleagues who feared taking the vaccine conflicted with their Christian beliefs…“Our official position is we are recommending that people get the vaccines,” said Barrows. “We do feel that the benefit of being vaccinated against COVID-19 outweighs the risks.””
Quote: “This new requirement includes well-defined exemptions to the vaccine. Individuals with legitimate medical reasons or sincerely held religious reasons will be exempt. The exemptions do not include personal or philosophical objections…Employees who refuse to be vaccinated will be subject to dismissal from employment for failing to meet legal job qualifications. The state will work with labor organizations on meeting collective bargaining obligations and adhering to civil service rules.”
Quote: “Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will request approval for the COVID-19 vaccine to become mandatory for all U.S. military service members by mid-September, according to a memo he sent to all Defense Department employees.”I want you to know that I will seek the President’s approval to make the vaccines mandatory no later than mid-September, or immediately upon the U.S. Food and Drug Agency (FDA) licensure, whichever comes first,” Austin wrote in the memo.”
Quote: “Washington Governor Jay Inslee is requiring state employees, healthcare and long-term care workers get the vaccine.This also includes contractors, volunteers and other positions who may be onsite at health care sites or with the state…King County also mandated its 13,500 employees will be required to get the vaccine as well. More than 80 percent of employees are already vaccinated…Gov. Inslee said about 500,000 people are under this umbrella.”
Quote: “The Biden administration is considering using federal regulatory powers and the threat of withholding federal funds from institutions to push more Americans to get vaccinated — a huge potential shift in the fight against the virus and a far more muscular approach to getting shots into arms, according to four people familiar with the deliberations. The effort could apply to institutions as varied as long-term-care facilities, cruise ships, and universities, potentially impacting millions of Americans…”
Quote: “Lake Powell is the second-largest reservoir in the USA, right behind Nevada’s Lake Mead, which also stores water from the Colorado River. Both are shrinking faster than expected, a dire concern for a seven-state region that relies on the river to supply water to 40 million people and a $5 billion-a-year agricultural industry.They are among several large bodies of water in the West that have hit record lows this summer, including the Great Salt Lake in Utah. California’s more than 1,500 reservoirs are 50% lower than they should be this time of year.In 1983, Lake Powell’s water exceeded its maximum level of 3,700 feet (1,127 meters) and nearly overran Glen Canyon Dam. The lake reached a record low of 3,553 feet (1,082 meters) last week.”
Quote: “Nestled inside the 2,702-page text is Section 13002, titled “National motor vehicle per-mile user fee pilot.” That pretty much covers the meat and potatoes of this section’s purpose: piloting a program that would tax drivers based on their annual mileage rather than at the pump…The bill specifically notes that this mileage information can be tracked via third-party OBD-II devices, OEM-collected telematic data, information from insurance companies, a smartphone app, or “any other method that [Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg] considers appropriate.” It doesn’t address provisions for the privacy of this data, nor how it will keep the information safe from bad actors, or even prohibit the sale of the data to non-government entities.”
Quote: “Scott Faber, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs at the Environmental Working Group, says the letters fall far short of what the DoD should be doing. “Imagine if your neighbor called and said, ‘Hey! I’m going to start sending toxic waste into your backyard, just letting you know’. That’s ridiculous right? Shouldn’t the Department of Defense be responsible, if they know the irrigation water is contaminated, to clean it up as quickly as possible?” Faber said.Faber points out the PFAS contamination issue impacts more than just the military or the farms themselves. It trickles out to all of us through the food supply.”We don’t know which farmers are impacted. We don’t know how much PFAS is in the irrigation water these farmers are spraying on their crops that we ultimately eat. We don’t know how much of this irrigation water is being used to water animals that we either eat or the products of which we ultimately eat. We should know that. It shouldn’t be a secret whether or not the food we’re eating might be contaminated with a toxic forever chemical,” said Scott Faber with the Environmental Working Group.””
Quote: “HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – All state and county workers in Hawaii will need to provide proof of vaccination by Aug. 16 or be subject to weekly testing at their own cost ― and could be fired if they don’t comply ― under tough new vaccine requirements announced Thursday by Gov. David Ige.The rules, which would cover tens of thousands of government employees, represent the most dramatic effort yet to get more shots in arms and drive down a surge in COVID infections statewide. In addition to all state and county departments, the University of Hawaii is covered by the protocols…He [Governor Ige] added that those who don’t follow the order “could be subject to termination.””
Quote: “We’ve covered our fair share of fights onboard Spirit Airlines, but today is no laughing matter: Spirit Airlines is experiencing a total meltdown that has led to extraordinary measures across the network. Unconfirmed reports of riots and bedlam have been reported in both Puerto Rico and Florida. As the day progresses, the situation is getting worse…As of 5:00pm ET, Spirit Airlines has canceled 277 flights today, representing 36% of its schedule according to FlightAware data. 159 flights have been delayed, representing 20% of its schedule…Perhaps you can imagine the situation. Flight cancellations and delays means passengers may be stranded for days. Gate agents have no answer. Passengers become agitated. Agents disappear. Passengers become more agitated.”
Quote: “Taco Bell employee told me there was a ‘national shortage of everything right now,’ and I have decided to get my economic news exclusively from drive-thru employees from now on,” tweeted one patron of the Mexican-food themed eatery.More specifically, a multitude of complaints on social media pointed to a lack of beef, chicken, hot sauce and 10-inch tortillas at the Yum Brands division, which runs nearly 7,500 Taco Bells, most of them in the U.S. “Taco Bell has a ‘district-wide shortage of hot sauce…times are tough,” tweeted one patron. “For anyone craving Taco Bell tonight, I’ll save you the drive, they don’t have chicken or beef, national shortage or something. I just ate black beans in a hard shell,” complained another in a separate tweet.

Quote: “In the Northern Plains, the Department of Agriculture said Monday that farmers were projected to harvest their smallest crop of spring wheat—crops planted in the spring and harvested in the autumn—in 33 years. This week, the North Dakota Wheat Commission noted in its weekly update that some farmers saw rain and lowered temperatures following last week’s searing heat, but conditions are still worrisome.The region is hardly alone; the USDA also said this week that 68% of the Pacific Northwest’s spring wheat was in “poor or very poor” conditions. At this time last, only 6% of the region’s wheat crop was in this state. All told, the USDA found that 98% of the U.S. wheat crop is growing in areas hit by drought.”
Quote: “While the full impact of the heat wave is not yet known, farms say extreme heat stresses young plants and can result in smaller yields. Unusually warm weather so early in the season may speed up the harvest of some crops.Farms use the old saying “knee-high by Fourth of July” to measure the progress of their corn crops. The corn at Schuh Farms has blown past that.”We’ve never ever had corn like this,” said Schuh Farms co-owner Susan Schuh. “This is Eastern Washington weather with growing corn.”On Thursday in a field west of Mount Vernon, the corn was already waist-high. Steve Schuh said he expects to have corn by Aug. 1 — a full 20 days earlier than normal…The hot weather is also causing grasses to dry out sooner, said Terry Sapp, owner of Hoehn Bend Farm, east of Sedro-Woolley.He said he expects to have just two grass cuttings, instead of three, this season, leaving the ranch with less hay for cows over the winter…Eastern Skagit County took a beating last weekend, with temperatures over 100 for three days straight.Sauk Farm near Rockport lost between 10% and 30% of its apple crop, depending on the age and variety of apple trees, said operations manager Griffin Berger.He said the farm recorded surface temperatures on fruit of between 145 and 155 degrees on Monday.”
Quote: “Satnam Dheensaw of Gobind Farms estimates he has lost 80 per cent of his early raspberry crop, 40 per cent of his tayberries and up to 25 per cent of strawberries due to the high temperatures that have gripped the region since last Friday.Blackberries also suffered a lot of scalding. “They are just burnt,” Dheensaw said. “They are just not designed (for these types of temperatures).” This said, his blueberries are doing well.Damaged crops naturally means fewer sales at a time when demand for fruit is high, he said. The hot temperatures also meant fewer workers out picking, and higher costs for watering and cleaning plants.Overall, the heat and the damage are unprecedented, he said.”
“Why everything is costing you more money,” June 14, 2021, https://www.aol.com/finance/why-everything-costing-more-money-163827865.htmlQuote: “”First, during the pandemic demand for several consumer goods has surged far above normal levels, and production struggled to keep up. Second, the global shortage of microchips has limited the production of many consumer goods such as appliances and new cars and has also spilled over to shortages of used cars and rental cars. Third, labor shortages have led to large increases in low-end wages that appear to be flowing through to rising prices in categories that rely heavily on low-wage labor, such as food services,” Hatzius explains.” These are their excuses and their sticking with them!

“A World Jabbed Into Submission,” May 27, 2021, by Tony Koretz of A Minute to Midnite, https://aminutetomidnite.com/2021/05/27/a-world-jabbed-into-submission/ (According to the CDC, as of May 17th there have been 4,647 corona vaccine related deaths and 227,805 vaccine injuries/related adverse events. At the 1 minute mark, Pierre Gilbert at a special conference in a 1996 video clip, speaks about the goal of vaccines. He states that vaccines will be mandatory in order that they might be a means to control people via liquid crystals in the brain that when communicated with via low frequency waves will render people unable to think. Besides this, the vaccine will contaminate the human bloodstream which will in turn create “intentional infections”. At about the 3 minute mark, an important word is given from the Israeli People’s Committee‘s Chairman Dr. Pinky Feinstein, Psychiatrist, as he reports on the adverse events related to corona virus vaccine. This Committee is independent from the Israeli government. According to their numbers, during the vaccination period of January-March 2021, the age group 20-29 year olds has seen an increase of 30% in mortality compared to last year at the same time. Around 250,000 of the Israeli people did not show up to get the second dose of the vaccine.)

The decision allows Impossible Burgers to hit grocery stores and schools and ensures the potentially hazardous ingredient can remain on the market….CFS senior attorney Sylvia Wu said in a statement:“We are disappointed by the court’s ruling … which will allow Impossible Burger and other meatless burgers to be made with a novel genetically engineered chemical without conducting any long-term health studies. FDA is supposed to protect consumers from unsafe novel chemicals in our food supply, instead now consumers bear the burden of avoiding these GMO plant-based burgers.”

You need crops and grazing animals together. That’s how you optimize both output and safety. The goal is to push us toward a food system of patented fake foods, so it’s crucial to interpret all new rules with this in mind.” And this is worldwide. “Initiative Petition 13 would turn Oregon into a “sanctuary state for animals” by removing exemptions for good animal husbandry practices, criminalizing the raising and slaughtering of food animals and reclassifying traditional animal husbandry practices such as artificial insemination as “sexual assault.”… Ireland’s Department of Agriculture has announced it needs to “reduce the size of the national herd to reduce methane emissions.” As noted by Ice Age Farmer, there’s no such thing as a “national herd,” or a herd that belongs to the nation as a whole, so what they’re really saying is “we’re going to eliminate ranchers and farmers to meet our climate goals.”… California Democrats are also fighting for legislation to increase living spaces for pigs from an average of 13 to 16 square feet to a minimum of 24 square feet per animal. The law, if implemented, would result in higher costs for pork producers across the country.If farmers can’t afford to expand their facilities, a pork shortage could ensue in California, as the state would not allow noncompliant farmers to sell within the state. If they comply with the California standard and do expand, pork will become more expensive across the nation…Australia recently reclassified manure from having no specific classification to a classification as “dangerous industrial waste,” and in the EU, a new seed law criminalizes traditional seed saving.” Behind it all, of course, the front man of the new world order agenda. “Bill Gates has been buying up farmland across18 U.S. states through various subsidiary companies. In all, he now owns about 242,000 acres of farmland. He’s also a longtime promoter of Genetically Modified (GMO) and recently started calling for a complete transition from meat to lab-grown meat and other fake and unnatural food sources, such as a protein-rich microbe found in a Yellowstone geyser.”…it’s not surprising that Gates insists synthetic beef is a necessary strategy to address climate change, having co-funded the startup of the imitation meat company Impossible Foods. Other investors included Google and Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos… Another official source proving synthetic beef will be thrust upon us, willing or not, is the EAT Forum, self-described as the “Davos for food.” EAT Forum is co-founded by the Wellcome Trust (an organization funded by and strategically linked to GlaxoSmithKline, a vaccine maker in which Gates is financially invested), and collaborates with nearly 40 city governments in Europe, Africa, Asia, North America, South America and Australia…The EAT Forum’s largest initiative is called FReSH, the goal of which is to transform the food system as a whole. Project partners in this venture include Bayer, Cargill, Syngenta, Unilever and Google.”
“As Prices Rise Across Supply Chains, Will Inflation Come for You Too?” March 31, 2021, https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-03-31/prices-are-going-up-across-supply-chains-will-inflation-come-for-you-tooQuote: “In the U.S., 3M Co. has pointed to rising freight costs to ship its goods while Mattel Inc. has said plastic is more expensive…Logistical problems have contributed to the scarcity of goods. The shipping industry didn’t have enough containers, which resulted in transport rates and costs going through the roof. The supply chain issues are now so severe that delays and delivery times are at their highest in decades in many places…Companies are looking for ways to ease the pressure, but no oneseems to have a clear way out besides hoping the situation is temporary because Covid-19 related disruptions are bound to end. But much of the return-to-normal thesis is premised on large populations being vaccinated, a process fraught with issues. No one has talked about a near-term solution. Meanwhile, freight rates and raw material prices continue to rise.”
“And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”
And so we come to the strangest, eeriest, creepiest horse whose color is pale, grass green, whose rider was Death himself and who has the accompaniment of the unseen world, truth-deprived darkness of Hades. These are not just given permission, but are given governmental authority to kill in four different ways: the sword, hunger, death, and beasts of the earth. But these means will not be normal, they will be both unnatural and supernatural. After all, this horse is not natural nor are its rider nor its companion. The horse is green. It’s rider death. It’s companion that follows is unseen.
The sword mentioned here is not the machaira of the Red Horse and his rider which is small and used for slaughter in battle. Rather, this is a large sword only seen seven times in the New Testament. Six of the seven times it is found in Revelation. Five of those six times in Revelation it refers to the the words of Jesus’ mouth. The one time is used outside of Revelation is in Luke when it says that Mary would be pierced in her soul. Thus, it can be said that in the New Testament such a sword is only used figuratively not literally. This must be taken into account when translating this here. This is not about physical war or slaughter or carnage, but is about something spiritually taking place through the use of words and grief brought on by those words, and possibly even by what is being seen. Because of a rejection of truth, there will be no life-giving hope or comfort. Thus, despair will be rampant, and the suicide rate will rise.
Hunger is linked to the stage that is set for worldwide famine beginning this year, and will tango with the inky Black Horse of economic collapse and inflation of prices around the world. This could even be a spiritual hunger that will never be satisfied because of the rejection of God.
Death can mean just that, death. It can refer to both physical and spiritual death. Quite likely in this case it means the permanent spiritual death that eternally separates one from God. After all, this is what the Pale Horse is all about.
Beasts of the earth is the diminutive form of the regular Greek word for dangerous/poisonous beasts like a snake. To be diminutive means to be small. Thus, these “beasts” are small, and could even be microscopic. Furthermore, the word from which both this word and the regular word for beast comes is that of hunting through use of a net or trap, even the hunting of men. This makes me think of Nimrod who “hunted men” in Genesis 11. It also draws my mind to Luke 21:34-35 which speaks of the Day of the Lord coming on unsuspecting, undiscerning people as a trap and a snare. And finally it makes me think of all the times in the Psalms when David spoke of the enemy laying nets and traps for the righteous, even laying in ambush, aiming their arrows at them for no cause and for their destruction.
Is this not happening even now via the vaccine? Does this not contain microscopic organisms that will destroy the human immune system, causing immediate or eventual, premature death? Is this not a trap and a snare that has been laid as a net for those who can not see clearly to discern, who are too trusting to question, who are too caught up in the cares of this life –both its pleasures and pains– that they cannot perceive the deadly attacked waged against them?
The plan of Death and Hades is to literally kill a quarter of humanity worldwide. At this time in history, March 26, 2021, there are approximately 7.9 billion people in the world. Therefore, the goal of the Pale Horse’s rider and companion is to annihilate upwards to 2 billion people in a short period of time via despair, spiritual separation from God, physical and spiritual starvation, and microscopic beasts such as viruses and other toxic, DNA-altering ingredients injected through a so-called vaccine. Remember, this is an unnatural even supernatural horse. There is nothing normal about this, and thus, it’s stealth is deceptive and deadly.
Is the Pale Horse and its rider and companion out of the gate yet? If not, it certainly appears from the list of headlines below that the groundwork has definitely been laid for their immanent arrival.

Quote: “Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will request approval for the COVID-19 vaccine to become mandatory for all U.S. military service members by mid-September, according to a memo he sent to all Defense Department employees.”I want you to know that I will seek the President’s approval to make the vaccines mandatory no later than mid-September, or immediately upon the U.S. Food and Drug Agency (FDA) licensure, whichever comes first,” Austin wrote in the memo.”
Quote: “Washington Governor Jay Inslee is requiring state employees, healthcare and long-term care workers get the vaccine.This also includes contractors, volunteers and other positions who may be onsite at health care sites or with the state…King County also mandated its 13,500 employees will be required to get the vaccine as well. More than 80 percent of employees are already vaccinated…Gov. Inslee said about 500,000 people are under this umbrella.”
Quote: “President Isaac Herzog met with Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz on Wednesday, saying the Health Ministry is facing the “biggest challenge humanity has known in decades,” and calling on the Israeli public to get the third jab…”Every Israeli contemplating the vaccination should not just think of protecting his family, but also protecting Israelis who cannot get vaccinated,” Herzog said.”
Quote: “Israel’s coronavirus cabinet announced Tuesday night that starting Aug. 20, the country will revive its full green pass system. Starting Sunday, masks will be mandatory in all indoor and outdoor gatherings and even fully vaccinated parents responsible for caring for a child in quarantine will be demanded to isolate as well (for children 12 and under).”
Quote: “New York City will require proof of vaccination to enter all restaurants, fitness centers and indoor entertainment venues, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Tuesday.”If you’re unvaccinated, unfortunately, you will not be able to participate in many things,” de Blasio said. “If you want to participate in our society fully, you’ve got to get vaccinated.””
Quote: “Lockdown measures in Bangkok and other high-risk zones will be extended for two more weeks… The restrictions, including travel curbs, mall closures and night curfew will be imposed on 29 provinces, instead of 13 ones previously, the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) said on August 1. Restaurants in shopping malls will be allowed to open only for delivery services.”
Quote: “Students who don’t like Indiana University’s COVID-19 vaccine requirement can go elsewhere for their education. That was the message delivered by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in a ruling issued Monday that will allow the public university’s requirement that all students and employees receive a COVID-19 vaccine before the start of the fall semester to stand.The court said that colleges and universities may decide what is necessary to keep students safe in the decision denying a request for an injunction made by a group of eight students seeking to block the mandate, alleging that it violates their constitutional rights. “People who do not want to be vaccinated may go elsewhere,” wrote Judge Frank Easterbrook in the decision.”
Quote: “Several hundred Israelis have demonstrated in Tel Aviv against new coronavirus restrictions and vaccination…Israel has in recent days rolled out a booster vaccine shot for older citizens, reimposed mask requirements indoors and restored “green pass” restrictions requiring vaccine certificates for entering enclosed spaces such as gyms, restaurants and hotels.”
Quote: “Health department workers and community outreach groups have kicked off a “doses to doors” COVID-19 vaccination campaign in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, where just 49% of residents have received at least one jab. The program, which officials say offer a convenient way for residents to get the shot without having to worry about travel, was met with mixed reaction on Twitter. “They don’t move that fast to help people when they know a hurricane is coming,” one Twitter user wrote…In nearby South Carolina, Gov. Henry McMaster has tried to block such door-to-door efforts, drawing a rebuke from the White House…”We’re not confrontational, it’s not like you have to get the shot,” Robert Dawkins, a volunteer with Action NC, told WBTV.com. “But our job is to dispel rumors and things. We get people that will say ‘yes I will get the shot,’ but the follow-up has always been the issue. Will they go? How can we get people to go out and go? So, now that the health department is out with us, we miss that middle man.””
Quote: “The American Hospital Association supports mandatory COVID-19 vaccination for health care workers. Dozens of health systems around the country, including the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Mayo Clinic, are requiring their workers to get vaccinated…Washington’s health system, physician and nurses associations should require all their members to get vaccinated, for our sake. Now.”
Quote: “The French parliament approved a bill early Monday that will require a health pass for access to restaurants, bars, trains and planes from the beginning of August. All venues accommodating more than 50 people already require proof of vaccination or a recent negative Covid-19 test, including museums, cinemas and swimming pools.France’s parliament approved a law early Monday requiring special virus passes for all restaurants and domestic travel and mandating vaccinations for all health workers…The law requires all workers in the health care sector to start getting vaccinated by Sept. 15, or risk suspension. It also requires a “health pass” to enter all restaurants, trains, planes and some other public venues. It initially applies to all adults, but will apply to everyone 12 and older starting Sept. 30… The bill was unveiled just six days ago…The rules can be applied through Nov. 15, depending on the virus situation. About 160,000 people protested around France on Saturday against a special COVID-19 pass for restaurants and mandatory vaccinations for health workers. Many marchers shouted “liberty!” and said the government shouldn’t tell them what to do.””
Quote: “Shemirani’s son Sebastian Shemirani called for his mom — who has been banned by the Nursing and Midwifery Council for spreading coronavirus misinformation — to be “prosecuted under existing laws” for her comments.“Or if there are not laws in place that say what she is doing is illegal, we should be having a national conversation about what laws we should be bringing in and drafting up legislation for that,” he told BBC Radio 4’s “Today.””
Quote: “Candida auris, which is deadly in 1 out of every 3 patients, is now jumping from person to person, according to a new report.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta reported in 2019 the deadly superbug fungus was spreading around the world and had been reported in 14 states, including Georgia.”
Quote: “Thousands upon thousands of demonstrators were seen in London, Dublin, Paris, Rome, Athens, and other cities across Europe…The demonstrations in France appeared to be the tensest, with riot police firing tear gas as clashes erupted in central Paris…France’s Interior Ministry said that about 160,000 people partook in the protests on Saturday…Thousands of Italian demonstrators gathered in Rome, Naples, Verona, and Milan on Saturday, according to videos and photos published online.In Verona, thousands chanted, “No Green Pass,” referring to Italy’s government decision to implement a vaccine-passport-like system for people to enter local fairs, stadiums, theaters, and other gathering areas…Also on Saturday, demonstrators in Dublin, Ireland, emphatically called on the government to rescind lockdown and mask measures.London, England, also drew significantanti-vaccine demonstrations, with protesters waving flags and singing songs.Some 4,000 people, meanwhile, appeared outside of the Greek parliament in central Athens to protest against mandatory vaccinations…”
Quote: “German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s chief of staff…said getting vaccinated is important to protect against severe disease and because “vaccinated people will definitely have more freedoms than unvaccinated people.””
Quote: “Police fired water cannons and tear gas on rowdy protesters in Paris, although most gatherings were orderly….In the northern city of Verona, several thousand people marched down the main shopping street, chanting “No Green Pass!” and “Freedom!” They included families with young children, medical doctors who said they are risking their jobs not to get vaccinated and people who likened the Green Pass decision to decisions by fascist dictatorships…”
Note: This is a video of international German lawyer Dr Reiner Fuellmich (who interviewed Dr Martin in a video posted below from July 9th). He is bringing a case before the various courts of the world regarding the “pandemic” (which was not real but planned by the elites of the world) stating it is a crime against humanity and he has proof.
Note: This is an astounding interview of Dr Martin regarding the patents of coronavirus, how this there is no novel coronavirus, and how its always been about getting people to take the present vaccine which was not rushed, but was ready in advance. This is not Dr. Martin’s opinion. He proves this through patent records and other documentation.

“A World Jabbed Into Submission,” May 27, 2021, by Tony Koretz of A Minute to Midnite, https://aminutetomidnite.com/2021/05/27/a-world-jabbed-into-submission/ (According to the CDC, as of May 17th there have been 4,647 corona vaccine related deaths and 227,805 vaccine injuries/related adverse events. At the 1 minute mark, Pierre Gilbert at a special conference in a 1996 video clip, speaks about the goal of vaccines. He states that vaccines will be mandatory in order that they might be a means to control people via liquid crystals in the brain that when communicated with via low frequency waves will render people unable to think. Besides this, the vaccine will contaminate the human bloodstream which will in turn create “intentional infections”. At about the 3 minute mark, an important word is given from the Israeli People’s Committee‘s Chairman Dr. Pinky Feinstein, Psychiatrist, as he reports on the adverse events related to corona virus vaccine. This Committee is independent from the Israeli government. According to their numbers, during the vaccination period of January-March 2021, the age group 20-29 year olds has seen an increase of 30% in mortality compared to last year at the same time. Around 250,000 of the Israeli people did not show up to get the second dose of the vaccine.)
“DR. FRÉDÉRIC LEROY: HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF FOOD PRODUCTION – ICE AGE FARMER BROADCAST,” May 26, 2021, https://www.brighteon.com/fbf53972-2c2b-4023-9ea8-c08f629de9d3Summary from the site: “In this special Ice Age Farmer broadcast, Christian is joined by Dr. Frédéric Leroy, a professor in the field of food science & biotechnology at Vrije Universiteit, to detail what can only be described as an attempted hostile takeover of all human food production. Dr. Leroy outlines with studied precision the UN Food Systems Summit: the agenda to end traditional farming and ranching, the players involved (and the revolving door between big multinational food companies, think tanks/foundations, and policymakers), the movement’s genesis in new age “Gaia” worship, and much, much more.”
“Court Upholds FDA Approval of Controversial GMO Fake Meat Ingredient,” May 24, 2021, https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/court-upholds-fda-approval-gmo-fake-meat-leghemoglobin/?utm_source=salsa&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=bcaaec43-2eda-4bae-b08c-4612a77b3b03Quote: “A federal appeals court upheld the FDA’s approval of the key ingredient in Impossible Foods’ fake meat products, GMO soy leghemoglobin. The decision allows Impossible Burgers to hit grocery stores and schools and ensures the potentially hazardous ingredient can remain on the market….CFS senior attorney Sylvia Wu said in a statement:“We are disappointed by the court’s ruling … which will allow Impossible Burger and other meatless burgers to be made with a novel genetically engineered chemical without conducting any long-term health studies. FDA is supposed to protect consumers from unsafe novel chemicals in our food supply, instead now consumers bear the burden of avoiding these GMO plant-based burgers.”
“The Real Reason Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Google Want You to Eat Lab-Grown ‘Meat’,” May 12, 2021, https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/bill-gates-jeff-bezos-google-want-you-to-eat-lab-grown-meat/?utm_source=salsa&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=677fa3a5-ec22-4dc2-89eb-db4c38c6eb0d Quote: “In essence, the FDA is drawing a line that can ultimately bar farmers from growing leafy greens and livestock together, which is the very heart of regenerative farming. You need crops and grazing animals together. That’s how you optimize both output and safety. The goal is to push us toward a food system of patented fake foods, so it’s crucial to interpret all new rules with this in mind.” And this is worldwide. “Initiative Petition 13 would turn Oregon into a “sanctuary state for animals” by removing exemptions for good animal husbandry practices, criminalizing the raising and slaughtering of food animals and reclassifying traditional animal husbandry practices such as artificial insemination as “sexual assault.”… Ireland’s Department of Agriculture has announced it needs to “reduce the size of the national herd to reduce methane emissions.” As noted by Ice Age Farmer, there’s no such thing as a “national herd,” or a herd that belongs to the nation as a whole, so what they’re really saying is “we’re going to eliminate ranchers and farmers to meet our climate goals.”… California Democrats are also fighting for legislation to increase living spaces for pigs from an average of 13 to 16 square feet to a minimum of 24 square feet per animal. The law, if implemented, would result in higher costs for pork producers across the country.If farmers can’t afford to expand their facilities, a pork shortage could ensue in California, as the state would not allow noncompliant farmers to sell within the state. If they comply with the California standard and do expand, pork will become more expensive across the nation…Australia recently reclassified manure from having no specific classification to a classification as “dangerous industrial waste,” and in the EU, a new seed law criminalizes traditional seed saving.” Behind it all, of course, the front man of the new world order agenda. “Bill Gates has been buying up farmland across18 U.S. states through various subsidiary companies. In all, he now owns about 242,000 acres of farmland. He’s also a longtime promoter of Genetically Modified (GMO) and recently started calling for a complete transition from meat to lab-grown meat and other fake and unnatural food sources, such as a protein-rich microbe found in a Yellowstone geyser.”…it’s not surprising that Gates insists synthetic beef is a necessary strategy to address climate change, having co-funded the startup of the imitation meat company Impossible Foods. Other investors included Google and Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos… Another official source proving synthetic beef will be thrust upon us, willing or not, is the EAT Forum, self-described as the “Davos for food.” EAT Forum is co-founded by the Wellcome Trust (an organization funded by and strategically linked to GlaxoSmithKline, a vaccine maker in which Gates is financially invested), and collaborates with nearly 40 city governments in Europe, Africa, Asia, North America, South America and Australia…The EAT Forum’s largest initiative is called FReSH, the goal of which is to transform the food system as a whole. Project partners in this venture include Bayer, Cargill, Syngenta, Unilever and Google.”

“Shot in the Dark,” March 9, 2021, Joni Lamb interviews Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iaKAWWGyWI In this interview it is made apparent by Dr. Tenpenny, who has studied vaccines for years, that this vaccine is unlike any other. It is experimental. Those being injected with it are the Guinea Pigs. And it will cut people’s lives short because of weakening effect of the vaccine upon the human immune system.
“Bio-warfare & Weaponization of Medicine Amid Covid,” January 15, 2021, https://thenewamerican.com/bio-warfare-weaponization-of-medicine-amid-covid/ In this interview, Dr. Lee Merritt explains that the COVID-19 virus is being used as a bio-weapon. And when it comes to the new vaccines, this “former military doctor who studied biological warfare, reviews previous animal studies on the technology underlying the vaccines and paints a dire picture.” In other words, this vaccine is not for our good, but our demise.
“Is a Coronavirus Vaccine a Ticking Time Bomb?” August 1, 2020, https://sciencewithdrdoug.com/2020/08/01/is-a-coronavirus-vaccine-a-ticking-time-bomb/?fbclid=IwAR1yJhZ9-FYUJKD0ge0c_vABj1pLceelgooVHBGlZIl3zwvvVVA1LfNOnMQ Quote from article: “This inherent unpredictability problem is highlighted in the following scenario: A coronavirus vaccine may not be dangerous initially. If the initial testing looks positive, mass vaccination efforts would presumably be administered to a large portion of the population. In the first year or two, it may appear that there is no real safety issue, and over time, a greater percentage of the world population will be vaccinated due to this perceived “safety”. During this interim period, the virus is busy mutating. Eventually, the antibodies that vaccinated individuals have floating around in their bloodstream are now rendered non-neutralizing because they fail to bind to the virus with the same affinity due to the structural change resulting from the mutation. Declining concentrations of the antibody over time would also contribute to this shift towards non-neutralization. When these previously vaccinate people are infected with this different strain of SARS-CoV-2, they could experience a much more severe reaction to the virus…Quoting a Nature Biotechnology news article published on June 5th, 2020…“ADE “is a genuine concern,” says virologist Kevin Gilligan, a senior consultant with Biologics Consulting, who advises thorough safety studies. “Because if the gun is jumped, and a vaccine is widely distributed that is disease enhancing, that would be worse than actually not doing any vaccination at all.”…”Right now, the fatality rate of the virus is estimated to be approximately 0.26%, and this number seems to be dropping as the virus is naturally attenuating itself through the population. It would be a great shame to vaccinate the entire population against a virus with this low of a fatality rate, especially considering the considerable risk presented by ADE. I believe this risk of developing ADE in a vaccinated individual will be much greater than 0.26%, and, therefore, the vaccine stands to make the problem worse, not better. It would be the biggest blunder of the century to see the fatality rate of this virus increase in the years to come because of our sloppy, haphazard, rushed efforts to develop a vaccine with such a low threshold of safety testing and the prospect of ADE lurking in the shadows. I would hope (and this is a big hope), that this vaccine WILL NOT BE MANDATORY.”
“Prof. Dolores Cahill: Why People Will Start Dying A Few Months After The First mRNA Vaccination,”https://coronanews123.wordpress.com/2021/01/18/professor-dolores-cahill-why-people-will-start-dying-a-few-months-after-the-first-mrna-vaccination/ “Prof. Dolores Cahill received her PhD in Immunology from Dublin City University in 1994. She was group leader of the Protein Technology Group in the Max-Planck-Institute of Molecular Genetics, Berlin, and is Professor of Translational Science at the UCD School of Medicine and Medical Sciences.COVID19 is a 99.4% to 99.8% survival rate virus, the death toll for which a team of researchers in one state found may be inflated by as much as 40%.”
The white horse is looking for world dominance via peace; the red horse is looking to stab all peace from the earth thus riddling it with fear; the black horse is looking to bring all into bondage because of economic inflation and inevitable collapse; and the pale green horse is unnatural in every way and will via unnatural means annihilate at least 2 million separating them from God and life itself.
The pin has been pulled on the grenade, the fuse has been lit on the dynamite, the time bomb is ticking down, and the horses are in the starting gate. In other words, it is just a matter of time when we will be smack dab in the middle of Revelation 6. If we are not raptured before the summer, the horses will be riding, for the stage is set and their coming is immanent.
Even so, Christ’s return is also immanent. So, do not fear little sheep. Our shepherd is coming SOON!
“Why the White Horse of Revelation 6 CANNOT be the Antichrist!” https://revelation6.com/white-horse-revelation-6-really-antichrist/ (Disclaimer: Though I do not agree with this author’s conclusion at all based on my own research, his word studies align with my own, and for this reason I have used this link as a source)
BOW = (toxon #5115) – “a bow” from tiktó #5088 “to beget, bring forth” “A strengthened form of a primary teko tek’-o (which is used only as alternate in certain tenses); to produce (from seed, as a mother, a plant, the earth, etc.), literally or figuratively — bear, be born, bring forth, be delivered, be in travail.”
CROWN = (stephanos #4735) – “that which surrounds, i.e. a crown” “From an apparently primary stepho (to twine or wreathe); a chaplet (as a badge of royalty, a prize in the public games or a symbol of honor generally; but more conspicuous and elaborate than the simple fillet, diadema), literally or figuratively — crown.” Usually “woven of oak, ivy, myrtle, olive leaves or flowers” (The Complete Word Study Dictionary: Greek, pg 1311).
CONQUERING = nikaó #3528 – “to conquer, prevail” Present Participle Active, this means that the rider on the white horse is continually conquering; the conquering is ongoing.
TO CONQUER = nikaó #3528 – “to conquer, prevail” Aorist Subjunctivce Activce, this means that there is the future possibility of the rider actually conquering. It is not for sure. It is not definite. But it is possible and could be probable.
Red Horse Word Study
POWER = The English word here translated “power” is not found in the Greek. Instead what is asserted here is that the one riding this horse is granted permission to take peace from the earth and that killing would become commonplace worldwide.
RED = (purrhos #4450) – “red, fire-colored”
PEACE = (eiréné 1515) – “one, peace, quietness, rest…(from eirō, “to join, tie together into a whole“) – properly, wholeness, i.e. when all essential parts are joined together; peace (God’s gift of wholeness).”
KILL = (sphazó #4969) – “to slay, slaughter…the Sept. very often for שָׁחַט, to slay, slaughter, butcher: properly, ἀρνίον, Revelation 5:6, 12; Revelation 13:8; τινα, to put to death by violence (often so in Greek writings from Herodotus down)…A primary verb; to butcher (especially an animal for food or in sacrifice) or (generally) to slaughter, or (specially), to maim (violently) — kill, slay, wound.”
GREAT = it means just that, “great” #3173. This is used regarding “number and quantity”, “intensity and its degrees”, something done on “a grand scale”, the broadness of its scope.
SWORD = (machaira #3162) – “a short sword or dagger…properly, a slaughter-knife; a short sword or dagger mainly used for stabbing; (figuratively) an instrument for exacting retribution…a weapon of war, is used for war, or for quarrels and dissensions that destroy peace”
Black Horse Word Study
BALANCES = (zugos #2218) – “a yoke” “(a Jewish idea) of a heavy burden, comparable to the heavy yokes resting on the bullocks’ necks…properly, a yoke; a wooden bar placed over the neck of a pair of animals so they can pull together; (figuratively) what unites (joins) two people to move (work) together as one…From the root of zeugnumi (to join, especially by a “yoke”); a coupling, i.e. (figuratively) servitude (a law or obligation); also (literally) the beam of the balance (as connecting the scales) — pair of balances, yoke.”
The Pale Horse Word Study
DEATH = (thanatos #2288) – “death” “thánatos (derived from 2348/thnḗskō, “to die”) – physical or spiritual death; (figuratively) separation from the life (salvation) of God forever by dying without first experiencing death to self to receive His gift of salvation.” Separation from God. This can also have to do with pestilence.
HELL = (hadés #86) – “the abode of departed spirits” from two words from A (#1) meaning “not” and idein/eidō (#1492) “see”, thus, “properly, the “unseen place,” referring to the (invisible) realm in which all the dead reside, i.e. the present dwelling place of all the departed (deceased); Hades.” And “eídō (“seeing that becomes knowing“) then is a gateway to grasp spiritual truth (reality) from a physical plane.”
POWER = (exousia #1849) – “power to act, authority”
SWORD = (rhomphaia, #4501) – “a sword, piercing grief” used 7 times in the New Testament. 1 to Mary in Luke saying a sword will pierce her soul, and six times in Revelation. 5 of those 6 times refer to the sword coming out of Jesus’ mouth, in other words, the power of His word. The sixth time is in this passage. The use of this word is not equivalent to machaira #3162. Machaira was a short sword used for hand to hand combat and was used for stabbing; machaira is used regarding the Red Horse with which he takes peace from the earth. However, this rhomphaia is a big sword, not a small one (according to Josephus, Antiquities 6, 9, 5 https://biblehub.com/greek/3162.htm). Also, rhomphaia has to do with a god’s name mentioned in Acts 7:43, Remphan or Rephan. Stephen in Acts 7:43 is quoting Amos 5:26. In that passage the god’s name in Hebrew is Chiun, but when translated into the Greek Septuagint the god’s name is Rephan.
HUNGER: (limos, #3042) – “hunger, famine”
DEATH : (thanatos, #2288) – “death”
BEASTS OF THE EARTH: (thérion, #2342) – “a wild beast” “Diminutive from the same as thera [2339]; a dangerous animal — (venomous, wild) beast…θήρα (Latinfera; perhaps from root to run, spring, prey, Vanicek, p. 415; cf. Curtius, § 314), θήρας, ἡ; from Homer down; a hunting of wild beasts to destroy them; hence, figuratively, of preparing destruction for men (A. V. a trap), Romans 11:9…From ther (a wild animal, as game); hunting, i.e. (figuratively) destruction — trap.” Gary Stearman in one of his many Prophecy Watchers programs explained that “beasts of the earth” can be explained as microscopic not just big, and thus could be viruses or bacterium or fungi etc. Indeed, this goes along with the fact that the word thérion is a “diminutive” of a larger, dangerous/poisonous animal. To be a diminutive form connotes something that is small, even exceptionally, microscopically small.
About a month ago, I went through an interesting experience that has left me wanting even more like it—longing and yearning for more such experiences!
I had a doctor appointment. Now, I do not like feeling unwell, nor going to the doctor, nor do I like having blood drawn. And on top of this, I do not like going to the doctor alone. But, this time the one who usually goes with me was not there. So, I was on my own.
While at the doctor’s office, I took note of an older lady in the waiting room who appeared to be East Indian. She was speaking loudly to someone on speaker phone, which was odd in a place of business. But I proceeded to fill out paperwork. When I later emerged from the doctor and my blood work after nearly 2 hours, she was still there. As I put my coat on in the waiting room, she actually attempted conversation with me. She too had had blood work done and was showing me her bandages. Then, she asked me where I was from, and after finding out, asked if I could give her a ride.
Now, remember, I’m was already quite preoccupied and in a place I did not want to be. But…. I have been praying since the beginning of the New Year that God would use me, that His Spirit would manifest Himself through me, that I would be bold for Him. And I had this incredible peace. So, because I have been praying like this and was flooded with this peace, I said “yes.”
I quickly texted someone what I was doing, and then proceeded to take the lady to where I thought was her home. But, instead, it was her temple. That’s right. Her temple. As I turned down the long driveway, it dawned on me that none of this was ordinary, and was truly a God-thing. I still had no idea how to communicate with her though because her accent was so thick. I wasn’t even sure how much of what I said was understood.
Though I thought I was going to just drop her off, somehow things felt incomplete. That’s when she invited me for lunch. So, I said “yes.” And in I went to their special kitchen where they have tables of prepared food set up, including a crock pot of three items: soup, lentils and a veggie mix. I took a little of each item along with the flat bread that she gave me. Really I was a bit concerned about how my gut would react to the foreign food so I ate only half of it. Boy was it spicy!!!! I blew my nose 3x. But, then, she blew her nose too and we laughed about how spicy it was. Most of the time we ate in silence. All the while I was praying that the food would not make me sick! But, I did not say anything about it. I just ate it. Someway, somehow I felt a little bit like a missionary in that moment. I know they always said that they ate things in order to not offend their host. Well, now I was doing that very thing. I did not finish everything though. I thought the less of it in me the better. But, I did eat all of the spicy soup and half of the other two items. (Though I distinctly felt the spice move through my small intestines, I never felt sick even once!! Praise the Lord!!)
After the meal, she offered me their array of “sweets” which actually were not very sweet at all, but they were pleasant. When I said I liked something, she gave me an abundance and told me to put it in my pockets. Later she asked how many people I had at home and she gave me more!
After we cleared our dishes, she took me into her temple which is completely white on the outside. I had to take my shoes off and put my hood up because my head had to be covered. (Note: Men and women have to take their shoes off and have their heads covered when entering the temple because in her religion men and women are treated equally). She marched right down to the front, and I was following quite boldly when I suddenly realized where we were going. It was then that I backed up slightly and waited for her near the back. It was from that place that I took in where I was and what it looked like and felt like.
The entire area was draped in white. Even the floor was covered in white, with the exception of one strip of Berber carpet down the middle of the white that led all the way down to the front. At the front stretched out something domed like that of a really long casket – like four caskets all lined up and covered in white. But, of course they were not caskets. I’m just expressing how it appeared. Behind that dome of white were 2-3 individuals. All I could see were their heads, and I was not sure if they were even real to be quite honest – they looked like bobble heads – for they were in trances. That’s right. They were each in a trance. There was a low murmur in the room. Thinking on it now, I’m sure the murmur/hum came from those at the front who were deep in a trance. On top of this, there was a spiritual heaviness about the place that could be tangibly felt.
After exiting, she talked a bit about her religion, and then I got the opportunity to share the Gospel with her. It was amazing! Though she could not fully understand my English nor I her broken English, I still had the blessing of telling her about the ONLY way to heaven: Jesus. She kept trying to tell me that there is one god, and that god is in everything and that it doesn’t matter what religion we are, god is the same. Again I said that there is only ONE way to heaven. She repeated the word “heaven” with a question mark and in a wide-eyed sort of way. I don’t know why really. I then reached out and touched her arm, made eye contact and said, “Jesus loves you. He died for you. He is the only one who can cleanse you of your sins. Jesus is the only way to heaven.”
Those who were supposed to have picked her up, arrived at some point near the end and invited me to coffee/tea/soda which I at that point turned down–they were very hospitable. My time there had come to a close. She had heard the Gospel, and knew that a Christian had been there.
Later I realized that she is a Sikh.
Our Mission Field
Though the truth of what I’m about to say has been right in front of me all this time, it never really hit me like it did as I drove away from the Sikh compound: we as Americans have a mission field right in our own town, our own neighborhood, in our doctor’s waiting room, and in our own backyards.
Now, the Sikh religion I know very little about—just like a I know so little about fixing cars or roofing a house or knitting an afghan or quilting a blanket—but what I do know is that Sikh’s need Jesus, and the Holy Spirit knows the way to the heart of a Sikh. So, do not limit God because you think you may not know enough about something. Peter did not know about Gentiles, but God sent him to Cornelius and the rest is history. Gladys Aylward, a single missionary lady to China, knew nothing of China nor the language, but she knew that God had called her there and was used mightily in ways she never would have envisioned. David Brainerd did not know all there was to know about American Indians in Delaware, but he knew he was called by God to preach the Gospel to them. George Muller knew nothing of starting an orphanage nor once he did how he would raise money for it, but God supplied for his need time and again and rescued thousands of children from the streets because of Muller’s trusting obedience. And Count Von Zinzendorf knew nothing of how to send out missionaries nor of how to be one himself, but he knew the Great Commission and used his position and money to send out those who would go, and even himself went to American Indians though he knew nothing of how to comport himself. Because of his zealous willingness, many others were inspired to do the same and many thousands came to Christ. God can use an obedient heart.
The Adventure
I also learned firsthand that when we really mean what we pray about being used by God however He wants to use us, He’ll answer. When I started praying this prayer quite seriously at the beginning of this year, though I eagerly and zealously wanted and want God to use me, I NEVER envisioned ministering at a Sikh temple. So, when you pray for God to use you, do not try to picture things. Just mean what you say, and wait and see what adventure God will give you!
When Things Fall Flat of Our Expectations
One more thing, sometimes what we are called to do will seem to fall flat. When we finally summon up enough courage to visit a neighbor or bake a cake to give someone only to find that that that person is not home, do not be discouraged. Though I one month later took homemade goodies out to the Sikh temple hoping to see her again or to have another divine appointment but was not as warmly welcomed by the two who were there nor saw the older lady again, and after leaving a note went home wondering “why did I do that?” But, it is then that we must realize 2 very important things: we were obedient AND God is still working. That’s right. God loves obedience. Sometimes we are to do things just because He says to, not because of a particular outcome that we expect. God does not require greatness. He requires obedience. His concept of success and our concept of success are different. Success to Him is obedience. And, yes, He is still working, and one of the most amazing miracles that can ever take place is in the human heart—including our own. For indeed, when we choose to obey, when we choose to go on God’s adventures, a miracle takes place in our own heart. Furthermore, that note or goodie or tract or flowers or merely the fact that someone dropped by with a note to say hello may mean the world to someone and may pave the way for a more meaningful conversation in the future. After all, God knows what He’s doing, and His timing is perfect.
Conclusion
And as I said at the opening of this article, I yearn for more experiences like this one! I long for more adventures for Jesus’ sake. I am zealous for God to use me more, even ‘use me up’ and ‘burn me out’ for the Gospel’s sake.
Do you want such an experience? Do you long for God to use you? Have you been seeking Him to manifest His Holy Spirit through you? If so, and you really mean it, God will and is answering. Just don’t limit Him. Let Him decide how, when, and where. In the words of Isaiah 6:8, “…I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.”
And if you’ve not been asking and seeking and longing, then why not? And God is still asking “whom shall I send? Who will go for us?” Today is the day to answer. There may be no other.
From the opening of Psalm 22 we glimpse with uncanny clarity the suffering of the Messiah upon the cross of Calvary. We perceive the incredible accuracy of King David as he penned the barbaric scene of Jesus’ crucifixion that would take place nearly 1000 years later. Indeed, intricate, minute details were prophetically fulfilled including:
Jesus’ cry upon the cross was a direct quote of the first verse of Psalm 22:1, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”
Jesus prayed both while it was day and night simultaneously upon the cross because of the unusual darkening of the sun for three hours (vs 2): “O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.”
God had always saved His people, and was now in a different, shocking way doing so again, only this time His people would reject His greatest salvation (vs 3-6) for it was too beneath them, too offensive. “But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. 6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.” Even Isaiah 53 states that He was despised and rejected of me, a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief.
Jesus laid down His life like a Tola worm and was despised for it (vs 6): “6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.” But without His sacrifice we would not have life and life more abundantly. And let’s remember, Jesus said that we must eat His flesh and drink His blood (John 6:52-57), which aligns with the Tola worm becoming food of her babies.
All of Jesus’ bones being out of joint and his heart literally failing him – this clearly points to the results of Roman crucifixion as seen in the Gospel accounts (vs 14): “I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.”
Jesus as He hung upon the cross, had no strength left and was severely dehydrated – elements of crucifixion as seen in the Gospels (vs 15): “My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.”
Gentiles, otherwise known as “dogs” and the “wicked” were apart of Jesus’ death as recounted in the Gospels (vs 16): “For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me…”
Jesus’ hands and feet were pierced—only done in crucifixion by the Romans (vs 16): “…they pierced my hands and my feet.” Though there had been feeble attempts at crucifixion a slight bit earlier than the Romans (but definitely not in the days of David nor soon thereafter), the Romans perfected this form of torturous execution.
The casting of lots by the Roman soldiers for Jesus’ clothes (vs 18): “They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.” Indeed, did not this take place at Jesus’ death on the cross?
The jeering and sardonic statements and staring with evil delight and encircling like in a ritualistic sacrificial fashion of was fulfilled when the Jewish leadership did so at the foot of the cross (vs 7-8, 17): “All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, 8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.” “I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.”
The foul snarls of the demonic dogs, the cruel circling of the demonic bulls of Bashan, the crouching of demonic lions roaring in Jesus’ ears and their satanic victory dance at Jesus’ feet as the enemy thought they had defeated God’s plan of redemption (vs 12-13, 20-21).: “Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. 13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion…Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. 21 Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.” Not only were the Jewish leadership mocking Jesus as He hung there in the physical realm, but the demons and principalities and powers were doing so as well in the spiritual realm. Jesus saw and heard both, in fulfillment of Psalm 22.
It’s NOT Over Until It’s Over!
But, the Psalm does not end there. It does not end with the Suffering One still suffering. It does not end with evil winning. It does not end with the Messiah crying out to Jehovah God for deliverance. It does not end with death. “David, with prophetic eye, was privileged to look ahead and see, not a crucifix [with Jesus still writhing upon it], but an empty cross, a glorious crown, and the universal acceptance of the kingdom of Him who was pierced and despised…This wonderful salvation will be eternal and will be all of God, bringing all the glory to Him,” (Stanley M. Horton, Great Psalms, 19).
Picking up in Psalm 22:22 we read,
“22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.”
Herein we see clearly that God did hear the cry of the “Suffering One” and answered; Jehovah, Father God did not turn His face away from Jesus -the perfect Lamb of God- upon the cross. His answer was not deliverance from the cross, however, but rather, through it. He allowed for Jesus to die that humanity might obtain salvation through the cross. For God was answering the afflicted ones from the beginning of time. All of afflicted humanity had been crying out to God for salvation, and now through the death of the ultimate Afflicted One who took upon Himself all of our sins, all of our sicknesses, all of our shame, God provided salvation for all the afflicted who would believe. And, in His time, He also answered the Afflicted One -Jesus- by accepting His perfect sacrifice and forgiving us of our sins because of His sacrifice.
But the Suffering One who died horrifically in Psalm 22 did not remain dead! For, the cross and its suffering and shame was not the end. In verse 22, the One who had suffered is seen praising God the Father for having answered His cry.
Verse 23 goes on to say, “praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.” The Jews are called upon to praise God for His dumbfounding salvation presented to them. As it states in Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” This was a salvation that went deeper and farther and higher and wider than the Jews ever could have imagined, for God not only extended blood-bought salvation to them, but to everyone who would believe on the name of the Lord Jesus, on His death, and His resurrection (John 3:16; Acts 2; Romans 10:9-10).
Salvation for ALL
Salvation is not just for the Jews. After all, the Psalmist goes on to write, “My praise shall be of Thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. 26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. 27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. 28 For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the governor among the nations.”
Through Jesus, Jew and non-Jew alike are sought by the Father and are saved through Jesus’ sacrifice. All nations are now included in salvation, and not just Israel. This is incredible! This is astonishing! Though salvation for the Gentiles was predicted in Psalm 22 and other passages of Scripture, it is still important to note that salvation came first to and also through the nation of Israel. We catch a glimpse of this in the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:19-23) where in Jesus says, “…salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.”
Eternal Life
Furthermore, Psalm 22:26 speaks of eternal life. After all it says, “Your heart shall live forever.” The Hebrew word for heart is lav or lavav, and means “heart and mind, inner being, inner person”. Basically, it is who each of us is. Following the context of Psalm 22 as best we can, those whose hearts shall live forever are those who are the Suffering One’s “brethren” mentioned in verse 22. So, who are Jesus’ brothers? Jesus makes it clear that it is those who believe on Him who are to be called His “brethren.” As Matthew 12:46-50 states, “While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. 47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. 48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? 49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! 50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
In Psalm 22:29 we read on, “29 All (they that be) fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him…” This is referring to those who are alive and to those who have died. For, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:10). This is an end time prediction at the culmination of all things, when Jesus is crowned king and God is worshiped by all, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth.
Finally
Psalm 22 concludes with, “and none can keep alive his own soul. 30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. 31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.”
To begin with, Jesus died. He did not keep Himself alive. “Himself He could not save.” Jesus lay down His own life as a ransom for many (Matthew 20:28; 1 Timothy 2:6), and in so doing, could not save Himself too. If He had saved Himself He could not have save us.
It goes on to say that “A seed shall serve Him.” This refers to two very important components: Jesus and those who believe on Jesus. God promised from the very beginning immediately after humanity’s disobedience in the garden that He would send the “seed of the woman” who would crush the head of the serpent (Genesis 3:15). Galatians 3:16 clarifies, “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many, but as of One; and to thy seed, which is Christ.” Even so, Jesus is the Seed.
But, there’s more! Galatians 3 goes on to explain in verses 27-29, “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” So, incredibly, because of Jesus, we too are Abraham’s seed that shall serve God forever.
This astounding truth of God’s precious righteousness, that laid aside His glory, stepped down into human flesh, and endured the shame of the cross, shall be declared to “a people that shall be born”. This means that this psalm was not fulfilled in David’s day, but was set for fulfillment at a future date. Generations of people born since the writing of this psalm, have had Jesus’ death and resurrection declared unto them and have experienced the impact of Calvary. Even now those who are being drawn by the Spirit of God unto repentance and faith, are having it declared to them still. For, “this is the Day [the day of redemption] which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it!” And again, “Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts…” (Hebrews 3:15).
Tetelestai
And finally, in the words of Jesus, “It is finished,” or “Tetelestai.” Tetelestai (Teleo, #5055) is the Greek word for the accomplishment or completion of something. It does not mean merely to end something, but rather, to bring it to perfection or its intended goal. In other words, when Jesus said “it is finished” as He breathed His last breath upon the cross, He meant that His intended goal had been accomplished. But, Jesus did not simply come up with those words in the pain of the moment as death took hold. Rather, these very words are found embedded in the last verse of Psalm 22. The translation we read says, “He hath done this,” but really, the words in Hebrew (Asah #6213) read, “For it is accomplished,” or “For it is completed.”
Thus, Jesus while dying upon the cross, quoted both the first and last verse of Psalm 22, and in so doing, declared to those gathered around the cross and those in the generations to come, that He was and is the fulfillment of Psalm 22 in its entirety, and more importantly, He is the fulfillment of the law in its entirety.
The power of this, the enormity of this, the gravity of this is beyond our comprehension. According to Colossians 2:14-15, Jesus blotted out the “handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
Through His horrific, sacrificial death upon the shameful cross Jesus crucified the law of sin and death and liberated humanity from all of its condemnation. And if that weren’t amazing enough, He also openly shamed the proud, unseen realm of evil principalities and powers, and once and for all triumphed over them through the glorious paradox of the cross.
