                                                                                     APRIL 2016


                                                                                 


                                                                                  April 30, 2016

Isaiah 21:6
"For this has YHWH said to me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he sees"
Ezekiel 33:7
"Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me."


Here is the April 2016 update to our 2016 Global Forecast. If you’ve been following along with us since our original forecast in December 2015, you’ve undoubtedly noticed that a lot has been going on in this momentous year of change for mankind.  Many covert and overt events are in the workings today that will prove to manifest into great distress for all life on the earth well into 2017 and beyond. The kindling unrest that we see brewing is just the beginning of the symptoms of a war waged by opposing forces for control of this planet. Just as Mosheh faced off against the Pharaoh which led to the Egyptian society falling to its knees, we are pretty much watching, as we live through a similar script being played out today. At that time the war between the forces of light and darkness was waged in heaven, as it is written in Ex. 12:12: “I will execute judgment on all the gods of Egypt.” The war however manifested itself in the earth through, Mosheh, Aaron, Iannes and Iambres, agents of those heavenly forces, upon Egypt (Ex. 7:10-12; II Tim. 3:8). The average citizen had no clue as to what was happening behind the scenes, but the signs that trouble was brewing were there. In any event, Egypt saw plagues in water pollution, mass animal deaths, insect infestation, diseases, severe storms, unprecedented human death and darkness. These plagues brought great unrest and destruction on the Egyptian way of life, militarily, socially and economically. The effects of the war today are reverberating as you read this very update. We are living in a time, much like then, that there is water pollution, mass animal deaths, increased diseases and severe storms. We have not seen the unprecedented human death toll and darkness, but don’t count them out, just prepare. Here’s a suggestion for you: pull up the original 2016 Global Forecast, and keep it juxtaposed with each new monthly update; then you can judge the accuracy of each update. Each month as we deliver the month’s updates, check them alongside with the original forecast and you will see that these alerts are not to be taken lightly.

In December 2015 we raised the alert in the 2016 Global Forecast telling everyone to look out for:

An election cycle that has certainly not been the norm, and it is likely that it will not become normal 
Increases in the amount of record natural disasters
Oil prices escalate quickly sometime this year
Great scandals emerge that cause great men and women to step down
Great companies and nations of renown may topple 
Terror strikes in USA and other nations
Increases in diseases
Global financial unrest
Possible food shortages
And last month’s latest alert: Disruptions in travel (sea, road, air and rail)

One might wonder: what’s up with all the doom and gloom reporting? These people must be the worst kind of doomsdayers. To be quite honest, we didn’t make up the headlines we’re simply pointing them out so that those who believe will pay attention and know that we are at the threshold of major life changes. Each person must decide the best way for them, and their family to prepare. What would it be like if your family was suddenly without food, water, and electricity, or something equally as important? It will be too late to prepare when the problems are upon us. Shaking ourselves free of dependencies and moving toward self-sufficiency may prove to be most comforting in the months and years to come. Spiritual preparation is a key to attaining a sound mind. We accomplish this by training our minds through meditation and/or prayer to be peaceful and content in all things. This mindfulness can make the difference between mental unrest, and maintaining sanity in disastrous situations. Remember that the true children of the Most High are here to serve, not to be served. Please share this report with your friends and family.


                                   ANIMALS, BIRDS, AND FISH ARE DYING AT RECORD PACE 

YHWH inspired these words to be written in the Book of Hosea 4:1-3: “Hear the word of Yahweh, O children of Israel, for Yahweh has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of Yahweh in the land; there is swearing, deception, murder, stealing and adultery. They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed. That is why your land dries up, and all who live therein waste away; the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens and even the fish of the sea are taken away.”
The scriptures tell us that the reason why certain problems have befallen the inhabitants of the earth is because we have lost the desire to pursue truth, be merciful, and seek the knowledge of our Source. Instead we indulge in activities which conceive and bring forth selfishness. Many of these activities beget violence, and cause the Spirit of One to be void from the land. In order to correct the situation, balance must be employed on the spiritual scale to create stability. For this reason we see that …  "the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens and even the fish of the sea are taken away.” Calamitous events are happening globally on a greater scale today than at any other time in our recorded history. The following is only a sample of what’s going on. (To read the articles copy and paste link into your browser):

                                                          EARTHQUAKES IN PLACE AFTER PLACE

In Mark 13:8, we are warned that as the days of redemption approach “There will be earthquakes in various places.” Today we are also drawing attention to earthquakes as one of the various signs of the end of the age. To spite the warnings becoming more blatant, many will not heed the warning signs. According to the USGS, there were 7,937 earthquakes recorded during April 2016. 742 were above a magnitude 4.0.  20 were over 6.0. The sheer magnitude of these earthquakes is becoming larger and more powerful. The following are the 50 that were above a magnitude 5.5 in April:

                                                             NATURAL WEATHER DISASTERS

In our book “The Life Times and Teachings of a Savior” we stated that starting September 13, 2015 we would see growing intensity in the forces of nature among other disturbances. Since that time we have seen just that. The tenacity with which Nature has unleashed her fury is unprecedented in modern times. Bio-engineering is part of this war and one of the reasons why the severity of the weather has become increasing destructive. It will get worse before it gets better. As things gets better a new chapter will be ushered in for mankind, as well as for the new powers that will displace the current powers and rule this planet from high places. The following is evidence of disturbances in the natural elemental forces:

                                             DROUGHT AND FOOD SHORTAGE LEADS TO FAMINE 

Droughts, severe storms, and other extreme weather are causing food shortages around the globe. A great deal of this severe weather is being controlled by technology that has been employed by those in control at this time (Revelation 6:8) in an attempt to herd the people into greater deception. Here are some headlines documenting what we are facing today:

                                                    ENVIRONMENTAL DISTRESS AND DISEASE

Deuteronomy 28: 58-62: 
If you do not carefully observe and do all the words of the law, that are written in this book, in order that you may reverence this glorious and reverent Name: YHWH your Father, then YHWH will bring upon you and your descendants fearful plagues, harsh and prolong disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses. He will also bring back upon you all the diseases of Egypt which you were afraid of, and they will cling to you; Every other sickness and every other disaster, which is not written in this book of the law, YHHWH will also bring upon you, until you are destroyed. You will then be left few in number…
So come out of her so you do not partake of these plagues (Revelations 18:4). Plagues not only refer to sicknesses of the physical body, but include spiritual, mental, and physical sicknesses of our planet as well. These sicknesses manifest themselves as the problems outlined in this report. No doubt the sicknesses that are documented as environmental distress and disease in the following headlines fall under the category of plagues:

GLOBAL ECONOMIC UNREST

Jeremiah 17:5:
This is what Yahweh says: "Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from Yahweh.
 
In April signs of an ailing financial market continued with 453 more scheduled financial institution’s branch closures. We can now see the health care and education sectors beginning to be squeezed economically. States and cities, such as Connecticut, Puerto Rico, Atlantic City, NJ, and Hazelton, PA are being struck by budget shortfalls. Venezuela has for all intent and purpose failed economically. Bankruptcies, layoffs, and closings are rapidly increasing. IBM, Kmart, Sears, Intel are just a few of the casualties.  If you have not noticed, recalls of manufactured products have skyrocketed costing these companies trillions collectively. This is by design, as these manufactured problems will no doubt cause millions of jobs to be lost. Sooner than later this will reach the overall economy. In an attempt to push blame away from what is the root cause, and away from those who are behind it all, a manufactured crisis will be triggered to deceive the public.

As these events are happening around us, we hear reports which paint a picture that the economy is bouncing back, the U.S. unemployment rate is decreasing and the global stock market is riding high.  For the month of April the signs are becoming clearer. We can see from the headlines that economic problems are starting to hit every sector. We cite the following as further signs of the global economic problems that we forecasted for this year:

                                          NATIONS ALERTED TO WATCH FOR SOCIAL UNREST

In the 2016 Global Forecast we alerted our readers that: “Situations in the Middle East are quickly spinning out of control on a course to explode, as the people of the nations are increasingly getting angry. Keep your eyes peeled on Turkey and Iran as these are primed as fuses to burn into a global explosion.” Iran was not featured in many headlines in March however they were named in one very provocative one. With that, let’s look at some headlines which included Iran and Turkey for April 2016:

In the 2016 Global Forecast we alerted our readers that: “Europe will have its share of problems, especially connected to their refugee situation. The refugee problem will prove to add to the other major elements that are set up to greatly destabilize the west this year.” Let’s look at the events of Europe over the past month:

                                                      GLOBAL OIL PRICES TO RISE IN 2016

In the 2016 Global Forecast we mentioned that we should not “…be surprised if gas prices escalate quickly sometime this year.” In January’s update we saw:

Jan. 6th        Saudi Arabia Hikes Gas Prices 50%
http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/05/news/economy/saudi-arabia-oil-budget-gas/index.html

In the February update we saw a similar trend as gas prices jumped more than sixtyfold in Venezuela. 

Feb. 17th    Gas prices jump more than sixtyfold in Venezuela, president devaluates currency
http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/money/2016/02/18/gas-prices-jump-more-than-sixtyfold-in-venezuela-president-devaluates-currency/

In the March update we saw the rising gas price trend continuing as 2016 highs are reached.

Mar. 18th    Global oil prices surge, sets 2016 record
http://www.upi.com/Business_News/Energy-Industry/2016/03/18/Crude-oil-gains-sets-2016-record/2251458307951/

http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/average-gas-price-jumps-above-dollar2-a-gallon/ar-BBqHNjK?ocid=ansmsnmoney11

            POWERFUL PEOPLE ROCKED BY PUBLIC SCANDALS, LOSE POWER, SOME THEIR LIVES 

In the 2016 Global Forecast we mentioned not to be surprised if great scandals emerge that cause great men and women of renown to step down, be forced out of office, or totally disappear from the public scene.  As the war in heaven continues to heat up we see the effects of it here on earth, as the children of the prince of this world fight to hold on to their offices.  Some have even suddenly died under a cloud of suspicious circumstances. Whether the “official stories” are true or not does not matter. What we are seeing is a war behind the scene among ruling factions, who are yet pawns to more powerful elite, forcing each other out of the way as they jockey for position. The following headlines are worth taking a look at as these activities are coming to the forefront:

                                        GREAT COMPANIES SHOWING SIGNS OF FINANCIAL UNREST

We saw some great companies trending toward extinction or take over, over the last few months. This has taken place due to the war referred to in the 2016 Global Forecast which is ongoing in the heavens, and is obviously affecting ruling factions in the earth. The former authorities of heaven are in the process of being totally ousted from office. They have been cast to our realm and they are using their children, the leaders of the earth, to carry out their biding in the earth in an attempt to keep power. The following headlines highlight a few of these companies:

We stated, and repeated several times, that “this election cycle has certainly not been the norm, and it is likely that it will not become normal without outside intervention.” This raucous entertainment serves a dark purpose: to incite the people with negative emotions in order to feed evil spirits. There is no need to take this side show seriously as it will not help those who seek truth. Taking a look back at this election cycle we see:

In April, this very unusual political year got even more unusual. In the 2016 forecast we alerted a wave of turbulent emotions would disrupt many. The March headlines showed this coming to pass. We said: “This year carries with it a host of heavenly influences that have the potential to bring some of the biggest changes that we'll ever experience in our lifetime. Negative human emotions such as: hurt, distrust, anger etc. will come to the forefront, and be greatly magnified. … Tensions, on various levels of the human experience: physical, spiritual, emotional, and mental will leave many wondering – "what’s going on”? That is exactly what we are seeing in many areas including this election year globally:  Let’s take a look at some April headlines:

                                                          DISRUPTIONS IN TRANSPORTATION

We mentioned in the March update that we may very well see interruptions in transportation. This problem will increase in frequency. We will see attacks on public transportation caused by the anger that is influencing the inhabitants of the earth. We will see equipment malfunctions in electronic controls on all transportation that uses high tech apparatuses. As we see increase in earth shaking events, train and other tracks are also being affected. It is hard to accept, but this is being cause by a change in the magnetic field of the earth, which is being affected by the sun, which is being affected by a super cosmic body. This body has the power to cause blackout due to electrical surges. This may never be admitted as the official reason, and many explanations will be given to cast blame elsewhere. However, take a good look at the increase in travel related disruptions and know that something out of the ordinary is going on:
