Miracle Nation :: By Terry James

The miracles performed on behalf of God’s chosen nation are prolific.

The plagues of Egypt—Genesis 7:14, 12:29-30
The parting of the Red Sea—Exodus 14:21-31
The parting of the Jordan River—Joshua 3:14-17
The falling of the walls of Jericho—Joshua 6:6-20
The sun and moon standing still—Joshua 10:12-14
The angel slaying thousands—Judges 13:19-20

These astonishing movements of God to bring forth, establish, and perpetuate His chosen people as promised are the miracles we know the most about because they’re so profound in their impact. Whereas secular writers and pundits have most often relegated these miracles of God to legend and lore, evidence steadily emerges to validate the historical facts the Bible has chronicled. Archeological evidence of the total destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah is recent proof of the truth of God’s Holy Word.

Certainly, the monumental ways God has dealt with Israel and its enemies are important to consider when thinking on prophecy yet to unfold. The Lord has mightily intervened with Israel’s path forward in the past, and He is prophetically scheduled to deal just as mightily in the Tribulation era. As a matter of fact, the primary goal of the Tribulation era–Daniel’s seventieth week—is to purge Israel and bring forth a remnant of God’s people who will be part of the Millennial Kingdom of Christ.

But, to the believing observer of these days and all that is transpiring on an hourly basis, it is undeniable that God is dealing at this very moment with His chosen people and their enemies as surely as He has dealt with them in the past and is scheduled to do in the future.

I refer specifically to the, if not supernatural way, almost certainly the heavenly, influential way Israel has again pulled off an intervention against their enemies’ plans to inflict their satanic evil.

We saw this heavenly influence years ago when the Jewish state, with the malicious computer virus Stuxnet, reportedly ruined almost one-fifth of Iran’s nuclear centrifuges. Targeting industrial control systems, the worm infected over two hundred thousand computers. Iran’s fast-track program to produce a nuclear weapon came to an abrupt end–for the moment, at least.

Now we witness, I absolutely believe, God’s intervention–His influence—that was used to protect against something big in the way of Israel’s enemies’ plans to again attack Israel. The following reports the matter with which, by now, most are familiar.

[Around 2,800 Hezbollah operatives were wounded across Lebanon as communication devices exploded.]

[Most of them were] Hezbollah operatives [who] were wounded across Lebanon on Tuesday afternoon when their communication devices mysteriously exploded at around the same time, according to Reuters and local reports.

Several hours after the incident, Hezbollah said in an official statement: “At 15:30, a large number of pagers exploded, and many people were injured. A Lebanese girl and two Hezbollah members were killed in the incident, along with a large number of injured.”

“An extensive security investigation is being conducted to find out the reasons for the explosions. We pray for the speedy recovery of the wounded and call to be careful of spreading rumors that help the enemy. The resistance is in the highest readiness to defend Lebanon and its people,” the statement read.

A Hezbollah source told the Qatari Al Araby Al-Jadeed: “Israel remotely hacked into Hezbollah’s unique communication devices and blew them up.”

In the evening, Lebanon’s Health Minister said there were at least eight dead and over 2,750 wounded, including around 200 in serious condition.

The son of Ali Ammar, a Lebanese parliament member for Hezbollah, died as a result of a pager explosion, two security sources tell Reuters.

Among those wounded in the explosions is the Iranian ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, according to Iranian state-owned Mehr News. In addition, the Saudi outlet al-Hadath said senior commanders of Hezbollah were wounded. (“Mysterious Explosions Come as Israeli Leaders Hold ‘Dramatic’ Discussion about Northern Front,” All Israel News Staff, September 17, 2024, Updated: September 18, 2024)

Since the explosions of the pagers, hundreds of other devices used to communicate between terrorists have exploded, killing or wounding many who held them.

Lest one is tempted to think these were innocents, with the exception, sadly, of the young girl being killed by the exploding devices, these terrorists had been told to use the pagers in order not to be tracked through their cell phones by the Israeli IDF. Thus, their nefarious plans to attack the hated Israel were foiled. This warning to the terrorists to use the pagers was given through recorded orders by a high-ranking terrorist leader, so the proof of the pagers’ use to do Israel harm exists in a digital paper trail; Israel’s actions were both brilliant and warranted.

I recently heard one American senator or US representative state he wasn’t the least bit worried about Israel’s destruction by its millions of enemies that surround the Jewish state. He stated that God’s Word assures their perpetual existence.

I say “Amen” to that sentiment. Israel is the miracle nation among all the nations of earth. That truth continues to be played out through hourly news cycles. Undoubtedly, we will see much more of that truth on display until the Rapture of the Church–at which time we will “watch from the balconies of Heaven,” as my great late friend Chuck Missler was fond of saying.

*** Important Notice! ***

God The Holy Spirit is turning on the Light of God’s Truth in Pakistan and other areas of the Spiritually darkened world.

Again, I’m appealing to you, who understand through Holy Spirit Enlightenment just how late is the prophetic hour, to help us print and distribute the little book Prophecy Power: Strength From God To Face Your Future to the people of Pakistan.

Pastor Anil Jasper worked diligently to translate the quarterly-sized Sunday school book into his native language. The results have been powerful in helping turn on that Light of understanding about Jesus and His soul-saving Sacrifice. Anil reports that the book distribution is reaping great rewards in terms of his people accepting Christ –something that might not have happened if not for the presentation in our little book.

Please consider again supporting this effort, as time looks to be short, according to all prophetic stage-setting signals in the world today. We want to one day hear the words from our Lord: “Well done, good, faithful servant.”

Please go to the following to read more and contribute.

End-times Ethnic Eruption :: By Terry James

The satanically spawned Hamas attack of October 7, 2023, seems to have opened in a major way an end-of-the-age Tribulation stage-setting prophecy.

Jesus Himself gave the prophecy as part of the Olivet Discourse while sitting with His disciples overlooking the Temple Mount:

“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation…” (Matthew 24:6-7).

The prophecy we need to look at in this fascinating time in history is Jesus’ statement that “nation will rise against nation” in an unprecedented way just before He returns to set up His Millennial Kingdom on Earth. When giving only a cursory glance at these words, we think that, yes, that’s certainly true. Many a nation has risen against another nation just during the past several decades. There have been many wars, and other wars are looming. But is this the kind of “nation against nation” reference Jesus specifically gave?

To answer this, we must look at the Greek language–the language from which the New Testament was translated into English. Jesus was, in actuality, saying these uprisings would be unusual in that they would be based on ethnos–the Greek word for “nation.” They would be ethnic in origin. They would pit ethnic or racial groups against ethnic groups.

It is equally true that ethnic factors have been the cause of many wars throughout the centuries. The Arabs and Jews–as a matter of fact, many ethnic peoples against the Jews—marked the conflicts of Old Testament times. Almost without exception, those early wars were “ethnic” in origin.

Things haven’t changed. Arabs and Jews still have the ethnos factor at the heart of their differences. And, never in history has the conflict been more virulent. Israel is hated like no other people—and by almost all of the nations of the world. The Islamic nations—mostly Arab—are blood-vowed to push the Jews into the Mediterranean Sea and wipe the Jewish race from the planet. Some Arab leaders of the past and other leaders–e.g., Iranian leaders—continue to want all Jews expunged from the region and even off the planet, as we hear incessantly through their protesting US college campus minions. They have made it their national policy through their oratorical invectives. There have been conflicts in the century just passed involving peoples of the Caucuses, the Balkans, etc., and horrific slaughters in Africa and other places–all based upon ethnic differences.

Now, this hemisphere is experiencing the burgeoning effects of ethnic conflict. The invasion of illegal aliens from points at US borders north as well as south, welcomed by a presidential administration that seems conjoined to the globalist intention to bring America into compliance with their New World Order aspirations, is threatening to erupt into violence within even smaller cities.

This invasion affecting even the smaller towns is easily discernable through reports like the following:

At this moment, there is a tremendous amount of discussion on social media about what is happening in the city of Springfield, Ohio.

The Haitian population of Springfield has become very large, and Newsweek is reporting that it is being alleged that “some of these people have been killing and eating folks’ pets”…

Springfield, which had a population of around 60,000, has recently been at the center of the immigration debate, with its Haitian community growing to between 15,000 and 20,000 over the last four years, according to city officials.

The past few days have seen locals report that some of these people have been killing and eating folks’ pets…

At a recent city commission meeting, one local resident was literally begging for officials to do something.

He claimed that migrants are “grabbing up ducks by their neck” and “eating them”…

“I really challenge you guys to get out here and do something,” he told the meeting.

“These Haitians are running into trash cans, running into buildings… they’re flipping cars in the middle of the streets…”

The man added: “They’re in the park, grabbing up ducks by their neck, and cutting their head off and walking off with them. They’re eating them.” (“Are they really eating our pets?” Rapture Ready News, September 10, 2024)

The point is that Jesus said a great, swelling uprising involving ethnic strife would grow to be a major crisis during the Tribulation era that lasts seven years just before He returns to put an end to all of the conflicts at Armageddon (Revelation 19:11).

This ethnic eruption we’re witnessing each day in our headlines is something to watch closely, so far as being observant for prophetic end-times signals is concerned. The unrest constitutes yet another indicator of where this generation might stand on God’s prophetic timeline. We can say with a degree of certainty, based upon the study of God’s Word and belief in the pre-Trib Rapture of Christ’s Church, that because of the burgeoning ethnic unrest, in conjunction with all of the other indicators we see interjecting themselves with growing intensity and frequency, Jesus’ shout, “Come up here!” can’t be far distant.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
