Can we know the Year?

Dear beloved Saints,

 

Since this May is a very high watch time (probably the highest time since the Lord called me to seriously watch 9 years ago), I felt led to list a few proofs from Scripture, from calendar dates, and from signs, that 2026 may, indeed, be the year of our rescue. I hesitate greatly in even saying that. Back in 2020, I made a similar, though not so blatant, declaration and I upset many people when we found ourselves still here. 

 

I am not a prophet. I have not received a direct declaration from the Lord as to the timing of the Rapture. I am a watchwoman and I base my predictions on what I see around me, from Scripture, and from a sense within me that I hope is the Holy Spirit and not just my own desperate desire to leave. 

 

This may be a little long, so tuck it away to read at your leisure. Some of you will already know much of this. But, my hope is, that by laying it all out here, it may encourage you and help you endure to the end.

 

I will be traveling for the next few weeks. Plans were made months ago with a belief that I probably wouldn't be here. But alas, now I head out of town to visit family out east. Hence, I will not be posting for awhile. If we do leave in May, this will be my final post. 

 

Proofs from Scripture

 

Ecclesiastes Chapter 3

 

 The title “Ecclesiastes” comes from a Greek word indicating a person who calls an assembly, so it makes sense that the author identified himself in Ecclesiastes 1:1 by the Hebrew word qoheleth, translated as “Preach"

 

The Bible is an incredible book. The more I discover about it, the more in awe I am of the Writer. God not only used 40 authors to write 66 books that all contain the same plot, moral, meaning, and purpose. Yet, He also encoded deeper meaning into each word and phrase. He used both Greek and Hebrew languages, the only two languages on Earth that have numbers associated with each letter, thereby giving each word and phrase both literal and numerical meanings. It blows my mind! God is also a mathematician, more detailed and brilliant than any mathematician who ever lived.

 

For instance, there are 22 letters in the Hebrew Alphabet. There are 66 books in the bible, which is three divisions of 22 (The Trinity).  Did you know that each book in each of the three sections is connected in theme with the book in the other two sections of the same number?  For example,  Genesis (book 1 in the first 22 books) is connected with Isaiah (book 1 in the 2nd set of 22) and with Romans (book 1 in the third set of 22). The Song of Solomon is connected with Acts and Revelation. I guarantee if you study these books together, you'll find similar themes running throughout.   

 

In addition, I am told, but haven't deeply studied this yet, that each of Isaiah's 66 chapters connects in some way to each book of the Bible. So Isaiah Chapter 1 connects with Genesis, Chapter 2 connects with Exodus, etc..  A wise theologian and great Bible teacher whom I follow wrote a book on this called The Isaiah Matrix. I urge you to check it out. 

 

Yet this is only the beginning of how intricate and deep the Holy Word of God is. I won't even go into all the numbers and gematria associated with several words and phrases that you can match with other similar numbers throughout Scripture. The Holy Spirit and Eleazar for example have the same gematria. (They equal the same number. 71 in the OT and 710 in the NT. Every number in the old is multipled by 10 in the New) Pastor Sandy Armstrong from Soldiers for Christ International has done several studies on these numbers, and it is amazing!

 

But for today, I want to focus on Ecclesiastes Chapter 3.  Why? Because we all want to know what year the rapture is, right? And it very well may be encoded in this amazing chapter, a chapter that is all about time.

 

 Here are the first 8 verses in the KJV, each one mentioning "time. 8 is also the number of Jesus 

 

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. 

 

Notice the progression of time in these verses. First, a time to born, then we go through a progression of life, work, pains, laughing, fun,...etc.. and we end with a time of war and then finally peace.  

 

Aside from the first verse, each verse mentions "time" 4 times.  For a total of 28.  The word "Time" in the first verse is a different Hebrew word than the other 28 and actually is not one of the "time to", but a general statement of time.  

 

We know that God has a 7000 year plan for mankind. If you've never heard that before, I urge you to look it up online as I'm sure there are many articles about it or search the Scriptures as well. There are 6000 years of mankind and 1000 years of Millennial reign, mimicking the 6 days of creation and on the 7th, God rested.

 

Here are the "times" in this chapter listed in order 

 

Time TO

1. Be Born
2. Die
3. Plant
4. Pluck up
5. Kill
6. Heal
7. Break
8. Build
9. Weep
10. Laugh
11. Mourn
12. Dance
13. Cast Stones
14. Gather Stones
15. Embrace
16. Refrain from embracing 
17. Get
18. Lose
19. Keep
20. Cast Away
21. Rend
22. Sew
23. Be silent
24. speak
25. Love
26. Hate
27. Make war
28. Have Peace 

Now watch this. If you take 6000 / 28 (the number of "times" and the number of the last time at the end), you get 214 (214 is the same gematria of the name Jared in Hebrew, which means He shall come down or He descends)

 

Now, let's then take 6000 - 214 and we get 5786  (Which is the Current Hebrew Year)   The Hebrew year 5786 is this year now!

 

That is mind-blowing. So if we take the total number "times" appears in this chapter and divide it into 6000 and then subtract that number from 6000 we get our current year, 2026.  

 

In fact, you can divide all 28 numbers into 6000 - they each tell a bible truth. 

 

6000/27 time for war. 222 - 6000 = 5778 (Hebrew year) = 2017 

 

6000/29 Total number of "times". If we take 6000 and divide by  29 "times" and  we get 206. 206 means the Spoken Word of God 

 

6000/9 A time to weep = 666 

 

I haven't gone through them all, and I don't know what doing the subtracting would produce either, but I thought it was interesting enough to post. Mainly to show how amazing our God is.

 

Is God giving us the year of the rapture? Maybe. Here's some other proof:

 

1. It's been 1993 years since Jesus died and rose again, depending on whether that year was 32 or 33 AD. Jesus said He would revive Israel on the third day. That leaves 7 years for the Tribulation

 

After two days He will revive us (quicken us, give us life); on the third day He will raise us up that we may live before Him. Hosea 6:2

 

This of course is foreshadowed in the resurrection of Jesus on the third day 

 

2. The Essene calendar. 

 

This watchman has studied the Essene calendar for years. I only recently came across him on You tube, but his findings all indicate that we are in the year of the rapture. 

 

David the Watchman 

 

3. Overload of prophesied signs all around us  

 

I don't have room to list them all. AI, Data centers, Surveillance cameras, smart dust, nanotech, vaccines, plagues, major quakes everywhere, unusual storms, rampant immorality, homosexuality, blasphemy, signs in the sky, meteors, trumpets blaring, antisemitism, digital currency, social credit scores, depopulation, chemtrails, poisons in air, food and water, and medicine! Persecution, Free speech limited or gone, wars and rumors of wars, Israel surrounded by enemies, Gog-Magog war, apostasy, false doctrines and teachers, MOB tech here, degenerate character of man, scoffers, love of many growing cold, and massive deception. To name a few!

 

If you've been watching for the Lord's return, you already know these 

 

4. 6000 years of mankind, then the 1000 year millennial reign. According to Pastor Sandy Armstrong's count that He says the Lord gave him, we crossed the 6000 mark in the year 2017. I believe him, based on what happened that year. 

• The Revelation 12 sign (a sign that did not occur in the sky since Jesus' birth)
• The naming of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

 But regardless, we certainly are within a few years of the 6000 years being completed

 

5. It's been 40 Jubilees since the Resurrection of Jesus. 40 is a huge number in Scripture. It generally is a time of testing. The Israelites spent 40 years in the wilderness being tested before they entered the promised land. Jesus, Himself, spent 40 days in the desert fasting and being tested before He started His ministry, to name a few.  

 

6. The Psalms of Ascent

Before I get into these Psalms and their prophetic significance, it's important to know that the Psalms, in general, are connected prophetically to the years of the end times starting with the year 1900.  To really see this, I encourage you to read the book "Hidden Prophecies in the Psalms" by J.R. Church.  Since Psalms is the 19th book of the Bible, the theory goes that Psalm 1 would represent the year 1901, Psalm 2, 1902, and so forth. While I don't agree that EVERY Psalm prophecies of the year it represents, there are some connections that are beyond coincidental. They are often very subtle but in my opinion cannot be explained away. For example, I encourage you to study the years of WW2 and in particular the Holocaust and hear the agony of the Jewish people in Psalms 40-44. Things start looking up for the Jews after that and it is clearly seen in these Psalms.    Psalm 48. This is the year that Israel became a nation. (Also kinda cool to note that the Psalms are 19 books in from the beginning of the Bible and 48 books from the end. Seems 1948 is a pivotal year in God's calendar) Of course 1948 was the year that Israel became a nation again.   Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.  Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.  Psalm 48:11-13   These verses appear to describe someone walking about Israel and Jerusalem and rejoicing! Note the Hebrew words for "generation following" are  dôr 'aḥărôn  Which means the latter generation, the final generation. It would seem that the Lord is saying here that when Israel becomes a nation, it will be the final generation. This coincides with Jesus's statement in Matthew 24   Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.    Psalm 120-134 have a special name. They are called the "Psalms of Ascent"  There are 15 Psalms of Ascent.  The number 15 in Judaism means REST. Here are some important Scriptures that mention 15   1.   There are two very important feast days that occur on the 15th of their respective months. Both are feast days in which all of Israel is supposed to gather in Jerusalem.   The 15th day of the first Hebrew month (Nisan) is the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a day of rest for the children of Israel Day 15 day of the seventh Hebrew month begins the Feast of Tabernacles, also a day of rest.     The number 15 occurs 24 times in KJV. 20 old 4 in New Testament.      2. After dying on the cross, Jesus' body is placed in a Garden Tomb as the sun was setting to begin Nisan 15 in 30 A.D.    3. Noah's Ark rose 15 cubits upward until the rains stopped     And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered (Genesis 7:19 - 20, KJV). 4. Judah's righteous King Hezekiah, who was quite sick, was informed through the prophet Isaiah that he would soon die (2Kings 20:1). After hearing this news he tearfully prayed that God would remember his works and how he served him with his whole heart. The Lord heard his prayer and granted him 15 more years of life.    Return again and tell Hezekiah the prince of My people, 'Thus says the Lord, the God of David your father, "I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day you shall go up to the house of the Lord. And I will add fifteen years to your days . . .'" (2Kings 20:5 - 6).   5. It was year 15 in the reign of Tiberius Caesar's reign that John the Baptist's ministry began (Luke 3:1 - 3).   6. Three and five are factors of 15. 3 is the Trinity and 5 means Grace.    7. Fifteen contains the digits one and five. Interestingly, this number is equal to the addition of the first five digits or 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5.   8. It was 15 furlongs from Jerusalem to Bethany   9. The Apostle Paul spent 15 days with Peter before he started his ministry  The Psalms of Ascent  The word "Ascent" in Hebrew is maʿalot which means “going up.”     In the Holy Temple courtyard, there was an ultra wide stairway that consisted of fifteen large, semi-circular steps that "ascended" into the inner section of the courtyard. The Levites, whose job it was to accompany the Temple service with song and instrumental music, would stand on these steps and sing these fifteen psalms.     These psalms were sung on a high "ascendant" musical note.     These psalms were sung starting in a low tone of voice and steadily ascending to a higher one.     These psalms were sung by the Jews who ascended from Babylon to Israel in the times of Ezra the Scribe.     These psalms were sung by the Jews when they would "ascend" to visit the Holy Temple three times annually for the festivals. Note the connection here with the three main harvests!     These psalms praise, exult and "elevate" G‑d.     A chiastic structure is seen by many in these Psalms with Psalm 127 a Psalm of Solomon as center. Preceded and succeeded by seven Psalms of ascent, each side adorned with 24 occurrences of 'Yahweh,' a numerical symmetry evoking divine significance I don't know about you but just reading that list and knowing that the word Ascent in Hebrew means "Going up" AND that these psalms were song when the priests went UP to the temple during the Three Harvest Festivals AND that there were 24 occurrences of "Yahweh" on either side of the middle Psalm 127.. well, that's pretty fascinating!   So, the theory then would be that Psalms 120-134 (Psalms of ascent) would represent the years 2020-2034.  If Psalms 120-134 (The Psalms of Ascent) correspond prophetically to the years 2020-2034, let's try and match them to what has been happening around us.  Could the "Ascent" here mean that during these 15 years, we, the Saints are on our way up to the Kingdom of God? Let's See!   Disclaimer: I'm not saying there is a definite DIRECT correlation between ALL of these Psalms and the year they connect to. Some will be obvious while other connections may seem like a stretch. I'm only asking you to open your mind and see the obvious prophetic connections where they exist.  Psalm 120. Can this connect at all to what happened in 2020? Here's just part of that Psalm.   In my distress I cried to the Lord, And He heard me. Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips And from a deceitful tongue. What shall be given to you, Or what shall be done to you, You false tongue? Obviously, 2020 was a year full of lies and deceit. I need say no more on that Psalm 121 I encourage you to read it for yourself. This post would be way too long were I to type out all 15 Psalms. But the main point of this Psalm is a cry out to God for help and an assurance of God's protection. Sure seems to fit where we were at in 2021 Psalm 122 Please read for yourself. This Psalm is all about Jerusalem. Here are the final verses   Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.” For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good. Perhaps this appeal to pray for Jerusalem in 2022 was in advance of the war that began in 2023 on October 7th?  Maybe. Psalm 123 Is a prayer for relief from contempt Here are the final few verses   Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt. Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scorn of those who are at ease, With the contempt of the proud. Interesting that in 2023, the current war began on October 7th and many many people throughout the world began hating the Jews Psalm 124  There are a couple of interesting things in this Psalm. It starts out proclaiming how the Lord is protecting Israel If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,” Let Israel now say— “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, When men rose up against us, Then they would have swallowed us alive, and ends with this interesting phrase below about escaping the snare of the fowlers.   Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth. Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; The snare is broken, and we have escaped.  Which reminded me of Psalm 91 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. 2024 was a year Israel seemed to be always battling her enemies round about Psalm 125  This Psalm talks about those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion and that the Lord is surrounding them and protecting them. Here's one verse from the middle For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest On the land allotted to the righteous, A scepter is an instrument of power for a king. So apparently there is a wicked king in Israel. But this verse says he will not remain there. Am I saying Netanyahu is evil? Honestly, I don't know. But I do know that the political and religious Jews in Israel will soon receive a very wicked ruler, the AC.  Psalm 126 I'll post the entire psalm here because this is the year we are in: When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing. Then they said among the [b]nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.” The Lord has done great things for us, And we are glad. Bring back our captivity, O Lord, As the streams in the South. Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him. This Psalm speaks about bringing the Jewish people out of captivity. It talks about their prior captivity and how the Lord rescued them and they were happy. Then it asks the Lord to do so again. It speaks of sowing in tears and reaping in joy.  Since Israel is at war this year, and about to make a major attack on Iran, I would think there would be many tears this year, many appeals to God to rescue them from the captivity of the surrounding nations. Psalm 127 This Psalm talks about the House of the Lord. Could it be referring to the rebuilt temple? It also gives the overall impression of patiently waiting for deliverance and of laboring and prospering in the Lord.    Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.   It is vain for you to rise up early, To sit up late, To eat the bread of sorrows; For so He gives His beloved sleep.   Psalm 128  Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is everyone who fears, reveres, and worships the Lord, who walks in His ways and lives according to His commandments. verse 1 The entire psalm is about the blessing that God pours on those who truly worship Him. 2028 would be the year approaching the mid-point of the Tribulation. Perhaps the Jewish people are finally starting to turn back to the Lord as they realize they are worshiping the wrong messiah.  Note: Of all the Psalms of Ascent, only Psalm 125 and 128  end with the phrase "Peace be Upon Israel" Interesting. Psalm 129 This Psalm is all about suffering and affliction and how the Jews are calling out to God to punish their enemies. Sure sounds like the middle of the Tribulation. Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth,” Let Israel now say— “Many a time they have afflicted me from my youth; Yet they have not prevailed against me. Let all those who hate Zion Be put to shame and turned back.   Psalm 130 The Theme of this Psalm is Waiting on the Redemption of the Lord.  It is a cry out for the Lord to come and save them. Again, we would expect to see this in the 4-5 year of the Tribulation Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope. My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.   Psalm 131 Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul, Like a weaned child with his mother; Like a weaned child is my soul within me. O Israel, hope in the Lord From this time forth and forever. What a contrast from the preceding Psalm. Perhaps this hope comes from the Jews who God has kept safe in Petra during the Great Tribulation. Perhaps they know His return is soon!  Psalm 132  The theme of this psalm is the eternal dwelling of God in Zion. Amazing. It speaks of the temple, the Ark of the Covenant and always having a descendant of David on the throne. Here are the last verses For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: “This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it. I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread. I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. There I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish.” What a different mood than all the prior "ascent" psalms! This is all about the Lord setting up His Kingdom in Jerusalem! Psalm 133 This short Psalm is all about the Blessed Unity of God's people. Here's the first verse. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! If this is 2033, then Jesus has returned and He is setting up His Kingdom, judging the wicked, and restoring peace and unity. We are there with Him and enjoying each others' fellowship.  Psalm 134  This is the LAST and 15th Psalm of Ascent  Behold, bless the Lord, All you servants of the Lord, Who by night stand in the house of the Lord! Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, And bless the Lord. The Lord who made heaven and earth Bless you from Zion! It's a psalm of praise to the Lord and the constant blessing of God!  I can well imagine this would be the attitude of the Lord's children as He completes the setup of His Kingdom and starts His 1000 year reign!  Saints, even if I'm wrong in some of my connections with theses psalms, you cannot deny the prophetic implication itself of 15 Psalms of assent, it's connection to the priests going up. the Noah connection the extra 15 years of Hezekiah, etc. Why would God place these special 15 Psalms in the middle of the book?   If you've made it this far, you get an extra bonus.  You may already know this, but May 13-14th is Ascension day, the Day Jesus rose up into heaven in front of His disciples on the Mount of Olives. It is also 40 days from Resurrection day, which happened to land exactly on Easter this year. It is also the end of the Barley Harvest in Israel.  Am I saying the rapture is on that day? Nope. Just pointing out the importance, Then 10 days later, we celebrate Pentecost on May 23-24.    This 10 days reminded me of this Scripture   Fear nothing that you are about to suffer. [Dismiss your dread and your fears!] Behold, the devil is indeed about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested and proved and critically appraised, and for ten days you will have affliction. Be loyally faithful unto death [even if you must die for it], and I will give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:10  This is why I believe May 2026 is the highest watch time we've ever had.  Jamie Walden I've posted his videos before. He's a pastor in Colorado with a very interesting background. A marine who saw action in war, a paramedic, a policeman... search and rescue, etc. Now, he pastors a church in Colorado. I love his sermons because he talks about going on in for Jesus, submitting completely to our Lord and King. He is appalled at the condition of the modern church.  The only thing I don't agree with him on is the rapture. He is not sure it is Pre-trib, but he doesn't argue about it. Having said all of that, last month he read through pages of words he received from the Lord during prayer and worship over the past several years. In the final one, the Lord told him that 2026 was the year. He even mentioned around fall time as the start of the Tribulation. Now, mind you, I don't put much credence on words most people say they got from the Lord. But this guy preaches the real Gospel, isn't even expecting the rapture, and has never ever given any prophetic dates. So I throw it out there for you to ponder. Along with everything else... well, it's very encouraging.  Here's one final short video about the Essene calendar and the final Jubilee. I found it very informative and interesting. I hope it blesses you Why the Essenes Predicted a 2025–2032 Tribulation Window That's it for now. If we do leave this month, then I would like to thank you all for following me here, for reading what the Lord gives me, and for your prayers and support.  If we find ourselves in June, I will prayerfully continue posting as the Lord leads.  Otherwise, I will see you in the clouds!
