Friday's Mad Mad World!

Greetings, Watchmen for the return of the King!  Here's the latest news. Actually this is only a sampling of the prophetic happenings going on in the world today.  Glance over it. Watch. Pray. And be strong in the Lord and in His Might.  Remember we are only passing through this world. This is not our home. We are only God's ambassadors here for the time being.

The thing that struck me:
Trump declared Jerusalem as the capital of Israel!!  WOW this is hugely prophetic. Every since Israel became a country, not a single president has dared to do this. Even though we all know that Jerusalem IS the capital of Israel. It's been the capital of Israel for thousands of years!  This is huge, folks. Keep your eye on Israel. It is where everything started and where everything will end. It is where our Lord was born and where He will soon return. Exciting times!
