I was beginning to discuss the issue with my wife, when she remarked, “Ezekiel 7 and 8”. She doesn’t really read Scripture, but said she used to enjoy Ezekiel, but didn’t know why she had that idea, nevertheless, she had the phrase placed in her mind.
Ez 7 & 8 aren’t very good news if it applies to the US, but it does appear to nicely summarize what is unfolding.
If you get a chance, read those 2 chapters. Here’s an excerpt, which seems very truly prophetic.
Eze 7:14-18
(14) They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goeth to the battle: for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
(15) The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die with the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.
(16) But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.
(17) All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
(18) They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
Eze 7:19-27
(19) They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
(20) As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations and of their detestable things therein: therefore have I set it far from them.
(21) And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute it.
(22) My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
(23) Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
(24) Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled.
(25) Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
(26) Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
(27) The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Thank you so much for your post. Knowing that God chooses sides and Israel will be safe gives me some satisfaction. Knowing that God also had a hand in the creation of America gives me some satisfaction. Not knowing the future is okay but I do fear for all that are living on this planet because demons are running free and unchained in this our present day all over this planet seeking to destroy life. Don’t know if they will succeed because the demons cannot succeed unless God wills it to be so. btw ... There is much truth in your tagline so once more there is satisfaction in having read your post and tagline. Cannot express, in words, the joy your reply gave me thus will simply say ... Thank You. May God Bless and keep us safe with Israel.
