’10 Days HIGH WATCH PERIOD’, World Disasters Reported on Friday the ‘13th’ (Number of Destruction.); Some hospitals are running out of health care workers. Here’s what could happen next. (A disproportionately large percentage of staff could be mysteriously removed by a ‘twinkling’ or ‘rapture’ or a ‘harpazo.’ WHO would be ‘LEFT’ to take care of the sick???) ‘And the dragon waited to devour the child before the woman brought it to birth.’

How Close Are We to the Rapture / Hapazo. ‘What is Happening?’ Why are the NEXT 10 DAYS “HIGH WATCH’ DAYS?

‘After 7 days the rains came.’ And also a 10 DAY HIGH WATCH PERIOD. NOVEMBER 11 TO NOVEMBER 21, 2020. Three (3) intense and emphatic Timing ‘clues’. I have been warning the world that the rapture is likely to happen in the October/November time period. We still have about 21 (7+7+7) days. ‘Of course I don’t know the day or the hour, but I’m still watching and discerning.’ AFTER the ‘seven days of waiting’ from November 1st to November 7th, November 21st is just 14 (7+7) days away! ‘As in the days of Noah, it rained for a little while until the boat was lifted off of the ground.’

CLUE ONE;

Revelation 12

12 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

There are a lot of moving characters in these short, but intense nine (3×3) verses. I won’t go into all of them, just the few that are relevant for this discernment. The ‘woman’ is Israel, the ‘man’ is Jesus Christ, the ‘child’ is the Bride or True Church that has been ‘gestating’ for over 2,000 years, spiritually speaking. The ‘dragon’ is Satan. These are very simple and shouldn’t be twisted or distorted into some other false interpretation. Don’t change them into something they are not.

In verse four, the ‘dragon is waiting to devour’ (destroy) the flesh of the Bride or Child. The dragon ‘knows’ the rapture is about to happen, but he doesn’t exactly know ‘when.’ He is NOT omnipotent like God. Nonetheless, Satan thinks he can pounce on the Child, while it is being delivered. What is the mechanism? I submit worldwide Covid-19 and Hunger. Why? Both Christian and Non-Christians are dying from this pestilence AROUND THE WORLD. It threatens to kill both believer and non-believer alike. Satan is trying to ‘kill two birds with one stone.’ Before Satan can devour the flesh of the Church, God supernaturally rescues / raptures / harpazoes the child so that Satan can’t get ‘his fangs’ on the Child or Church. Let’s use a little ‘logic.’ Most in the church ‘who are awake’ are well aware of the ‘Time of Season’ in which we live. I have been preaching that the rapture is imminent, as each successive wave of signs has become stronger, longer and more severe (Like Labor Pains.) Most will agree with me. Secondly, we need to consider how ‘bad’ the pestilence is getting (JUST THIS WEEK) in ‘devouring’ both Christians and Non-Christians alike.

’10 Days HIGH WATCH PERIOD’, World Disasters Reported on Friday the ‘13th’ (Number of Destruction.); Some hospitals are running out of health care workers. Here’s what could happen next.

By Holly Yan, CNNUpdated 4:39 PM ET, Wed November 11, 2020

(CNN)Imagine going to a hospital so overwhelmed, doctors and nurses with Covid-19 are allowed to keep working.

Or having a heart attack and getting rushed to a hospital, only to learn there’s not enough emergency care for you.

These scenarios have already turned into reality. The US has more people hospitalized with Covid-19 this week than at any other point in the pandemic.

“The difference between what’s happening now versus what happened before is that the virus is everywhere now,” emergency medicine physician Dr. Leana Wen said.

“Before, there were just a few hot spots across the country. There were health care workers who could volunteer and go between different states,” she said.

“But when the virus is so widespread, we could very well … run out of health care workers, which means that patient care is going to suffer. And we will be at breaking point in our hospitals.”

Record-breaking hospitalizations

This current onslaught of fall Covid-19 cases is the result of more indoor socializing, reopened schools and people flouting safety precautions due to pandemic fatigue, health experts say.

Nationwide, 61,964 patients were hospitalized with Covid-19 on Tuesday, according to the Covid Tracking Project. That’s the highest number since this pandemic began.

“We’re already seeing our hospitals at breaking point in some parts of the country. And that means it doesn’t just affect patients with coronavirus,” Wen said.

“It also means that elective surgeries are being put off for things like hip replacements, for cancer surgery or heart surgery in some cases.”

And the crisis is expected to get worse. The US had a record-high 136,325 new Covid-19 cases reported Tuesday, according to Johns Hopkins University.

And massive surges in new infections lead to more hospitalizations and deaths in the following weeks.

“Unfortunately, I think the statement about ‘new record’ is going to be repeated over and over again,” said Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of the Brown University School of Public Health.

“We have more infections now than we’ve had certainly since the beginning of the pandemic. And I expect that those numbers will continue to climb. Hospitalizations are going to continue to climb.”

When hospitals can’t take any more patients

In Idaho, some patients needing hysterectomies or joint replacements will have to wait.

“We’ve already been making decisions about not taking pediatric admissions and closing our pediatric floor to save on bed space and staffing,” said Dr. Joshua Kern, vice president of medical affairs for St. Luke’s Magic Valley, Jerome and Wood River medical centers.

“We’re saying no to elective procedures that require an overnight stay.”

Idaho was one of 17 states that had a record-high number of patients hospitalized with Covid-19 on Monday, according to the Covid Tracking Project.

“We have gotten to the point where we haven’t turned patients away but we’ve been required to transfer them to one of our sister hospitals in Boise, where they do have some capacity,” Kern said from Twin Falls, about two hours southeast of the capital.

“Basically when we get to the point where the hospital is full — based on the staffing capacity that we have available — then we’ll say no to any additional patients. So that’ll be patients in our own ER that we’ll then have to transfer to Boise via ambulance or helicopter or fixed-wing plane.”

Even patients who don’t have coronavirus are suffering from the pandemic.

“We have a big backlog in hysterectomies … knee replacements, hip replacements — anything that can be put off,” he said.

“Is it optimal? Never. If somebody needs a spine surgery or a hysterectomy, it’s borderline whether it’s truly elective. But we’re so crunched for staff, we have to make those decisions.”

A doctor who volunteered in NYC won’t travel now

When Covid-19 crippled New York City earlier this year, thousands of volunteers from across the US came to help.

Dr. Tomas Diaz, an emergency room doctor from San Francisco, spent a month volunteering at a New York hospital during the spring surge.

But now, Diaz is staying put in California.

“I’d be concerned about leaving at a time when I might be needed here, at my current home,” Diaz said.

San Francisco is faring much better than many cities — possibly because of an early mask mandate and shelter-in-place order, he said.

But the situation could change at any moment.

“These are unprecedented times for all of us,” Diaz said.

“We’re seeing the effects of it, in terms of folks … not being able to have visitors in the hospital, (being) isolated from their loved ones in the hospital, and potentially dying as well.”

And he’s seeing young people get hospitalized with Covid-19, too.

“I have had patients who are young — like 30s and 40s, otherwise healthy — who are just completely knocked out by Covid and need to stay in the hospital with low oxygen saturations,” he said.

When a heart attack patient can’t get quick care

In Utah, hospitals “are really at the brink of not being able to take any more people … particularly in our intensive care units,” Gov. Gary Herbert said.

“We just don’t have rooms that have got doctors and nurses that can provide the health care.”

Utah mother Laurie Terry learned that the hard way. And she doesn’t even have coronavirus.

Terry recently suffered a heart attack and needed special equipment in a hospital’s intensive care unit. But a doctor told her family there weren’t enough hospital resources available due to the pandemic.

Eventually, Terry got to a hospital with an opening and the specialized care she needed. But her sister said her condition has grown worse.

6 hours to the closest available ICU bed

While big cities took the brunt of previous outbreaks, Covid-19 cases are now exploding in rural parts of the country.

“Surges in rural areas are especially concerning since many rural hospitals have less capacity to expand the ability to care for patients and fewer resources to fall back on,” said Nancy Foster, vice president of quality and patient safety policy for the American Hospital Association.

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly said hospital capacity is now a major concern in both rural and urban parts of the state.

She recalled a recent example in rural Kearny County, where the closest available ICU bed was in Kansas City — six hours away by car.

“We must (work) to flatten the curve,” the governor said. “We know how to mitigate the spread of the virus. We know that masks work.”

Some doctors and nurses with Covid-19 can keep working

In North Dakota, the staffing shortage is so bad that asymptomatic health care workers infected with coronavirus can work in Covid-19 units of medical facilities.

“Our hospitals are under enormous pressure now,” Gov. Doug Burgum said when announcing the change Monday.

Some hospitals have already hired traveling nurses and suspended elective surgeries. But staffing “continues to be a challenge amid heavy patient counts,” Burgum’s office said.

Health care workers infected with coronavirus can keep working in Covid-19 units “so long as they remain asymptomatic and additional precautions are taken as recommended by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the North Dakota Department of Health to protect the worker and the community,” the governor’s office said.

Such precautions include taking the health care worker’s temperature daily and wearing a face mask.

Retired health care workers are asked to help

“Many nurses are coming out of retirement to deal with this issue,” said Gerard Brogan, director of nursing practice for National Nurses United, the largest union of registered nurses in the U

Like many states, Wisconsin is grappling with both an onslaught of Covid-19 patients and a heavily strained health care system.

“The number of staff out due to illness or quarantine is also a factor in our staffing needs,” said Laura Hieb, chief nursing officer at Bellin Health Systems in Green Bay.

So Bellin has asked retired health care workers to return.

“They are helping in some of our high-need areas like testing sites, follow-up phone calls and data entry. Some have worked in clinical areas, but due to age and other factors, most are not working on the front lines,” she said.

The health care system has redeployed or rehired more than 200 people, Hieb said. They include retirees as well as “a good number of Bellin College faculty and students helping in low-level jobs.”

Hieb said there’s a key difference between this fall Covid-19 surge and previous surges: “The volume of inpatients is greater than last time.”

Doctors plead for personal responsibility

For many months, Americans have heard “we must flatten the curve so as to not overwhelm the hospitals,” Brogan said.

Yet here we are again: Hospitals are at or near capacity, starting to divert patients and delaying certain surgeries. Why?

“I think it’s pretty simple: People will not behave themselves,” Brogan said.

“There’s a whole lot of people who think this is a ‘plandemic.’ They don’t believe the science,” he said.

“There’s this myth among the youth that they can’t get Covid. People aren’t social distancing. People aren’t wearing masks. It’s a misinformation campaign that’s exacerbating this pandemic.”

Dr. Emily Spivak, who’s been treating Covid-19 patients in Salt Lake City, said it’s “super frustrating” that many people won’t take simple steps to help — such as physical distancing, mask wearing and hand washing.

“I don’t see an end. No one’s doing anything to stop what’s happening,” she said.

“It’s kind of like people just are going out and living their lives not realizing that they are exhausting our health care system.”

It’s important to remember health care workers are “really putting their lives and their safety at risk,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

Many have lost their lives. More than 1,700 health care workers in the US have died from Covid-19, National Nurses United reported in late September.

It’s a tragedy not just for their loved ones and colleagues but also for patients who relied on their care.

And exhausted nurses working 12-hour shifts are sometimes caring for twice as many patients as they normally would, Brogan said.

For those who don’t think they’ll be personally affected by this crisis, don’t count on your luck lasting, he said.

“Do not overwhelm the system. If you do not have a close relative or a loved one or someone in your neighborhood who’s suffered from Covid, you will in the future unless you adhere to these basic public health measures,” Brogan said.

“It’s a little sacrifice now for the greater gain for all.”

Doctors say this will be the worst surge yet.

By Holly Yan, CNN

(CNN)Dr. Joseph Varon hasn’t taken a day off in 214 days.

“It’s not that I don’t want to. But the patients keep on coming,” said Varon, a critical care doctor and chief of staff at United Memorial Medical Center in Houston.

It used to be worse. After Covid-19 crushed the hospital earlier this year, his team juggled as many as 88 patients at once with the disease. But in the last few weeks, as few as 10 coronavirus patients needed their care.

“Then the last five days have been hell. We’re getting a lot of patients. And the patients are coming in very, very ill.”

The fall Covid-19 surge is gripping the US, and doctors expect the next few months to be the worst period yet.

Seven months into the pandemic, doctors and scientists have made major strides in learning how to better treat patients of this still-new disease. And that knowledge is a huge advantage.

For example, ventilators — once widely used early in the pandemic — are now used less frequently, as doctors have learned how they may injure Covid-19 lungs.

But in some places, nurses still don’t have enough protective equipment. People keep flouting masks and social distancing. And rapid, at-home testing remains a pipe dream.

Here’s where experts say the US stands as it enters the next phase of the Covid-19 pandemic.

What doctors have learned about treatments

Many Covid-19 patients who entered hospitals earlier this year did not make it out alive.

Since then, “the death rate per case … has definitely dropped. And that’s a tribute to modern medicine,” epidemiologist Dr. Larry Brilliant said.

“We have tools in our arsenal now. We have … dexamethasone, which 

But as more patients survive, many are also stuck at the hospital with long-term complications.

“Before, people would come in when they were just dying. Now, we keep them alive. But many of them have very bad lung disease, and they will require long-term care,” Varon said.

These days, Varon said he’s again seeing patients come in with more advanced Covid-19.

“Part of that is based on what I call Covid fatigue syndrome. People are tired … they are looking the other way. If they have symptoms, (they think) it’s no big deal. And then by the time they come to us, they are very sick.”

It’s critical to seek medical care immediately because “at the early start of the illness when you have Covid, the virus is multiplying like there is no tomorrow,” Varon said.

He said some treatments can work well, such as convalescent plasma therapy or remdesivir.

Convalescent plasma is a blood product that is taken from volunteers who have recovered from an illness such as Covid-19. That plasma has antibodies that can help stimulate an immune response in someone who is currently sick.

“The evidence on convalescent plasma as a treatment for severe cases of COVID-19 is promising but incomplete,” Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, said in a written statement last month.

or now, the NIH treatment guidelines don’t recommend for or against using convalescent plasma to treat Covid-19.

Remdesivir was found to speed recovery in moderately ill patients with pneumonia from Covid-19, according to Phase 3 clinical trial results published in August in the medical journal JAMA.

But this month, the World Health Organization said remdesivir has “little or no effect on mortality” for patients hospitalized with Covid-19 and it doesn’t seem to help patients recover any faster, either.

Despite the ever-evolving research, “we have learned a lot,” Varon said. “What I do today is not what I was doing three, four months ago.”

Blood thinners reduce deaths among coronavirus patients, study finds

Why ventilators might be bad for Covid-19

While states were scrambling to find ventilators earlier this year, Varon and other doctors now only use ventilators as a last resort when treating Covid-19 patients.

With many patients, “we learned that putting somebody on a ventilator is basically signing their death sentence,” Varon said.

“We learned the hard way that putting pressure into your lungs in somebody that has damaged lungs, like Covid patients, was creating more injury than benefit.”

Brilliant said it’s “good news” that hospitals aren’t using ventilators as much on Covid-19 patients.

“Doctors are not shoving ventilators down people’s throats quite as quickly. That’s a wonderful thing,” he said.

Now, doctors like Varon sometimes allow a concept known as “permissive hypoxemia.” The NIH says hypoxemia, or a low level of oxygen in the blood, is common in Covid-19 patients.

“You know how everybody thinks that an oxygen (level) of more than 90% is good, and that’s where you need to stay? We learned that because we were causing so much damage (with ventilators), maybe we should tolerate a little lower oxygen. So if it came down to 85%, we probably would be OK.”

That’s different from his previous methods with non-coronavirus patients, in which those with “85% (oxygen) gets a (breathing) tube. 89% gets a tube. So we learned that we can actually allow lower oxygen concentrations.”

Doctors have also learned that laying patients facedown on their stomachs can help increase the amount of oxygen that’s getting to their lungs.

The technique is called proning. Critical care specialists say lying on the belly seems help because it allows oxygen to get into the lungs more easily.

“We’re saving lives with this,” Dr. Mangala Narasimhan, regional director for critical care at Northwell Health in New York, said in April.

“It’s such a simple thing to do, and we’ve seen remarkable improvement. We can see it for every single patient.”

When patients lie on their backs, the weight of the body effectively squishes some parts of the lungs.

But “by putting them on their stomachs, we’re opening up parts of the lung that weren’t open before,” said Dr. Kathryn Hibbert, director of the medical ICU at Massachusetts General Hospital.

While it’s great that doctors can save more lives, “we’re seeing the long-term effects of Covid,” Varon said.

“We are now recognizing that they end up having some chronic lung issues. Their lung capacity is not what it used to be,” he said. “The heart may or may not have issues. There’s so many things, it’s not even funny.”

How hospital capacity has improved — or not

Varon’s hospital in Houston has turned into a gigantic intensive care unit as it braces for an onslaught of Covid-19 patients this fall and winter.

Across the country, many hospitals are already starting to max out due to soaring Covid-19 cases, said emergency medicine physician Dr. Megan Ranney, who directs the Brown-Lifespan Center for Digital Health in Rhode Island

“My colleagues across the country are sharing stories of their ERs getting overwhelmed, their ICUs being full, running out of nursing staff because their nurses are getting sick,” Ranney said.

“We are facing the same situation that we were in in April and May in the Northeast and in July in the South. And the trouble now is that we’re seeing it literally across the country,” she said.

“We’re hearing similar stories from my colleagues literally across the country, including here in the Northeast. We’re starting to see hospitalizations tick up. We are seeing people who are much sicker than they have been since that first wave in the Northeast in the spring.”

Infectious disease specialist Dr. Aileen Marty, a professor at Florida International University, said Covid-19 hospital admissions are going up in her state.

“We’re balancing those by being able to get people out of the hospital sooner than we were because we’ve learned a lot,” she said. “But it’s still happening.”

Some health care workers still don’t have enough PPE

In the spring, we heard horror stories about health care workers struggling to find enough personal protective equipment. Some had to make face shields out of plastic report covers. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention previously advised medical workers to use bandanas or old face masks if needed.

Fast-forward to October, and PPE shortages are still a concern, according to National Nurses United, the largest union of registered nurses in the US.

“We must currently rely on firsthand accounts from our members because hospitals are only required to report PPE stock levels to the US Department of Health and Human Services, which does not publicly release the data,” the union said in a written statement.

“The lack of transparency on PPE stock and supply is outrageous.”

Without sufficient PPE, health care workers treating coronavirus patients are at high risk because “the viral load — the amount of virus — does determine the severity of your illness,” said emergency medicine physician Dr. Leana Wen, a former Baltimore health commissioner.

“So that could happen in the case of health care workers who are exposed to a lot more Covid-19 as a result of their work — that they get more severely ill.”

More than 1,700 health care workers in the US have died from Covid-19, according to National Nurses United. It’s a mass tragedy not just for their loved ones and colleagues, but also for patients who relied on their care.

“Let’s be clear that this pandemic is not over. Cases are rising again in many areas of the country,” the union said this week.

“We are still demanding that President Trump activate the Defense Production Act to mass produce PPE, and that federal OSHA promulgate an emergency temporary standard on infectious diseases to mandate that our employers give nurses optimal PPE.”

Insufficient testing is holding the US back

“Unfortunately, the US is not better at controlling Covid-19 than it has been since the beginning of the year,” said Dr. William Haseltine, a former professor at Harvard Medical School and the author of “COVID Commentaries: A Chronicle of a Plague.”

“We have more people infected. We have more states, we have our rural areas affected. Once again, we have hospitals filling up — this time, not just in our major metropolitan areas, but in more rural areas. The death rates are going up,” he said.

Americans should have quick, easy access to testing, Haseltine said. But that’s still not the case in many places.

“One of my grandchildren had a cold. And we had to get tested. It was murderous. In New York City, there were two places that could do the rapid tests,” he said. “Two places in Manhattan. That is unbelievable. And we had to wait hours — six hours just to get tested.”

Health experts agree that testing is key to finding those infected with coronavirus — especially nonsymptomatic carriers — so they can isolate for 14 days and break the chain of infection.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, “we are a little bit better at testing, (but) not much,” Haseltine said.

By this point in the pandemic, he said, Americans should have access to cheap, rapid 15-minute tests similar to the ones used by the NBA.

Haseltine said tests have gotten more accurate in recent months, and some are more affordable — as cheap as 50 cents.

But even if all families had access to rapid tests, not everyone can afford to miss 14 days of work to isolate — especially since many Americans don’t have sick leave from work.

“My recommendation is make (tests) universally available to every household, and if somebody in the household is positive … we make it economically possible by paying them to stay home — the whole family — for 14 days,” Haseltine said.

“That could end this epidemic within three to four months.”

Haseltine said he has calculated the estimated costs for “a program to get everybody three or four months’ worth of free tests — they can test everybody in their family — and pay everybody $500 to stay home for two weeks, for their entire family” if someone tests positive.

“It would cost less than $200 billion. And we are already $16 trillion in the hole on this pandemic (projected through fall 2021). It’s a fraction of what it would cost.”

This plan is “comparatively inexpensive, compared to what we are putting up with,” Haseltine said. “If we decided to push the button now, go full-speed ahead, we could probably have this epidemic over and done with by March.”

So why don’t we all have Covid-19 tests in our medicine cabinets yet?

“From the President on down, most of the official leadership has been deeply misguided,” Haseltine said. “They have focused first on treatment and not on prevention.”

In June, President Donald Trump famously said “slow the testing down, please.” He has said increased testing can lead to higher numbers of reported Covid-19 cases.

Adm. Brett Giroir, the White House testing czar, said Covid-19 testing has improved dramatically in the US.

But Giroir has repeatedly said, “We can’t test our way out of this” pandemic.

“He’s right in a limited way,” Haseltine said. “He’s right that testing isn’t enough. Testing plus isolation is the way to drive this down to zero … voluntary testing followed by paid isolation.”

As for the theory that Covid-19 cases are surging just because of increased testing, “that is absolutely not the case,” Haseltine said.

“That is not why hospitalizations are going up. That’s not why deaths are going up.”

‘A war against stupidity’

While many Americans are getting lax due to pandemic fatigue, some have taken virtually no precautions at all. Either way, cases are surging again, and we’re headed right back to where we started — further delaying a mask-free return to normal life.

Doctors are “better prepared. We’re better studied. But patients are coming in. And people are being stupid,” said Varon, the critical care doctor who’s worked every day for seven months.

“I am fighting two wars. I am fighting a war against Covid, and I’m fighting a war against stupidity. It is unbelievable.”

After spending 16 to 20 hours a day at work, Varon said he’s disgusted by images of people socializing without face masks.

“I just had one of the worst weekends (at work) I’ve had for a very long period of time,” he said. “This is not a hoax. This is real. And anybody who doesn’t believe me, they can come and spend a day with me.”

As for young people, “if you think nothing bad is going to happen to you, you are wrong,” he said. “And I would hate to see you on long-term oxygen or being crippled, having to be on a wheelchair or a walker for the rest of your life.”

That’s not hyperbole.

He vividly recalls a 32-year-old man with no pre-existing conditions and was “healthy as a horse” — until he came down with coronavirus.

“He ended up here with us in the hospital. He was a very sad story,” Varon said. “He spent with us close to 70 days and eventually went home on oxygen — probably for the rest of his life.”

But there are ways to get out of this pandemic, Haseltine said.

“The first thing that we have to do right away is for everybody to take what you hear every public health official say, which is wear a mask and socially distance,” he said.

“The second thing is we have to have a federal policy that we are going to do everything we can to get rapid tests in everybody’s hands immediately. And we are going to pay people to stay home so they don’t infect other people when they are potentially infectious.”

If we take those steps, he said, “we could put this close to zero in four months.”

Night Watchman Note; ‘THE GRAND DADDY SIGN’. That is what ‘watchmen or women’ do. Jesus made clear that when He actually does come for His disciples, His wise and faithful servants would be aware of the time because they would be watching. They would know the season of the times by WATCHING those things ‘coming to pass or occurring’ as Jesus said they would. The ‘BENCHMARK SIGN(s)’ always point towards Israel / Jacob. God’s prophetic timepiece. The FALSE PEACE COVENANT confirmed by the Prince/Beast among MENA (the many) is the ‘key sign’ of the times or the season of the times. Yes, we are in that period. The Prince/Beast will likely confirm and enhance the current ‘normalization’ agreement with Jacob to be a ‘peace’ agreement, to be extended to 7 years from the current 5 years, to include some agreement permitting the rebuilding of the third temple in exchange for ‘some portion of Jerusalem.’ The current ‘investment’ period for the Palestinians stands at five (5) years. This will likely occur AFTER the Bride, Disciples or True Church is removed from the earth via the Rapture / Harpazo / Redemption / ‘Twinkling’.

Confirmation for Seven (7) Years

Daniel 9:26-27 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

US President Donald Trump has predicted that Saudi Arabia will be among up to 10 further countries preparing to ‘normalize’ their relations with Israel.

The meaning was obvious: The country [Saudi Arabia] is tired of waiting for Palestinians to make peace and is preparing to move on. The message to foreign capitals, perhaps to Washington in particular, is equally clear: The time is coming when a deal may be done.

Prophetic Discernment: Two ‘Scenarios’. I am not ‘dogmatic’ about either one. Other scenarios could come into play. THE POINT … is how close we are!

Trump may still yet get the Beast to agree for ‘MENA’ the ‘CURRENT’ plan, SHORTLY, in the few remaining days left in the ‘Last Trump’ or ‘Last Trumpence’ Presidency. Saudis may be ‘nervous’ about the Biden election and want to get the ‘deal done and finished’ while Trump is in the twilight of his presidency.

The Rapture

The following would take place AFTER the Rapture: Biden/Harris may work to ‘ENHANCE’ the plan by the literal splitting of Jerusalem along the 1967 lines. An ‘exchange’ of sovereignty to get a temple for the Jews and to give the Beast custodianship of al-Aqsa … that which he covets. The plan will be ‘ENHANCED’ (investment wise for the Palestinians) for Seven (7) years. Perhaps the investment amount will also be increased.

Or

Rapture

Then the following: Beast ‘ENHANCES’ the plan under Biden, by splitting Jerusalem along 1967 lines. In a ‘Give up Sovereignty, Get a Temple’ scenario. The plan finally gets ‘CONFIRMED’ or approved shortly, under Biden/Harris (Deceiver-in-Chief and Jezebel-in-Chief).

Either way, the Rapture / Harpazo / Redemption / ‘Twinkling’ is imminent.

Prophecy has a ‘window.’ That window is closing shortly and quickly. As is the door in the ‘Age of Grace’ for the world.

Pay ‘Eagle-Eye’ attention to the world geo-political news feeds over the next 10 days to see if any type of ‘confirmation’ is forthcoming or made by the Prince / Beast/ 8th King / Son of Perdition / Future Antichrist / Man of Lawlessness. Also MbS, Man-by-Satan and the Confirmer and he that causeth the Abomination of Desolation in April 2024. Trump may surprise the world and suddenly proclaim that a deal has been reach or agreed upon by Saudi Arabia and at least nine (3×3) other Arab/Muslim countries from MENA. If nothing happens over the next 10 days, it is possible the entire covenant could be ‘strengthened and confirmed’ AFTER the rapture. This is a very real possibility. Be warned and hopeful.

Jesus Christ’s Offer of Salvation:

The ABCs of Salvation through Jesus Christ (the Lamb)

A. Admit/Acknowledge/Accept that you are sinner. Ask God’s forgiveness and repent of your sins.

. . . “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23).

. . . “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10).

. . . “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” (1 John 1:8).

B. Believe Jesus is Lord. Believe that Jesus Christ is who He claimed to be; that He was both fully God and fully man and that we are saved through His death, burial, and resurrection. Put your trust in Him as your only hope of salvation. Become a son or daughter of God by receiving Christ.

. . . “That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:15-17). For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13).

C. Call upon His name, Confess with your heart and with your lips that Jesus is your Lord and Savior.

. . . “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9-10).

. . . “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (John 1:8-10).

. . . “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. (John 2:2).

. . . “In this was manifested the love of god toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.” (1 John 4:9, 14-15).

. . . “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.” (Romans 5:8-10).

. . . “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23).

. . . “Jesus saith unto them, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6).

. . . “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth.” (Romans 1:16).

. . . “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts: 4:12).

. . . “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:4-6).

. . . “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

. . . “But as many as received him, to them gave the power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.” (John 1:12).

True Church / Bride of Christ Spared from God’s Wrath:

 Romans 5:8-10. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.”

Romans 12:19. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 1:10. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

1 Thessalonians 5:9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Romans 8:35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Jeremiah 30:7. Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.

Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
