Where have I gone when called to speak?  Why do I lay in comfort when every fiber of my spirit cries, “Stand”?  What has become of my will to honestly declare, “no, that is wrong, and I will have nothing to do in supporting it”?  Why do I look away when I see the storm on the horizon, knowing fully well what the clouds portend?  How do I reconcile my unwillingness to study, know, declare and prepare for what God’s Prophets and the Lord Himself have said are next for humanity?  I cannot question the motivation of a man because I cannot see into your heart, I can only guess because I see the self-serving tendencies within my own breast.  But, know this that the Lord sees all.  Fear that moment when those eyes of fire review directly, every moment of our existence, speech and action and your fear of anything in this world will become nil.

Russia has now taken an open role of opposition to Israel.  They no longer work solely behind the scene to foster a culture of subversion to God’s people, but now choose openly, to act in a style of aggression that lays bare their true intention.  Do we know Psalm 83 and Isaiah 17-19, where God foretells what will surely and quickly come to pass?  Or do we wish to remain ignorant hoping that our naivete and refusal to admit will somehow delay the inevitability of prophecy?  Soon, a select group of Israel’s neighbors will make the ill advised and percussive mistake of threatening and attacking Israel.  This will end in the Nation defeating them handily and subsequently capturing/absorbing a greater territory, previously given them by the Lord Almighty.  That episode will set a countdown to the circumstances depicted in Ezekiel 38 and 39 where Russia, joined and empowered by a greater coalition of nations will enter the Land to take what we perceive as “bounty”.  These are not my thoughts, my words, my predictions.  I make no claim to have specific insight in these occurrences, I am simply declaring the Word of God from old.  That we have any recent insight into these things at all, has in itself been foretold in Daniel, because the Holy Spirit of God has revealed these things to the beloved.

Prepare your minds and hearts to receive the indwelling of Spirit.  Take the stand when Spirit directs to declare to the masses the Righteousness of God.  Warn those who would be eternally separated from the Father, that salvation is near and judgment follows.  Make it known to all what is soon come to pass as evidence of your reliance upon the perfection, truth and accuracy of God’s Word.  Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of the Lord.  So seek the answers in scripture, as you need not be ignorant or led astray by false prophets.  My hope is in the God who saved me and His redemptive authority over all that exists, including sin and death.  Rejoice for salvation is come, in Christ the King, Jesus our Lord will soon arrive to accept His rightful place upon the throne of humanity, for ever and ever.  I cannot wait for that day, but if I must Lord, please equip me to handle all that comes my direction.  Empower me to act, speak and wait in tandem with Your Will.  Praise Your Holy Name.  Amen.
