LIGHT

                                                     2016 GLOBAL FORECAST UPDATE AUGUST 2016


                                                                                                                          AUGUST 31, 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.

Though the thick heat of summer may be drawing to a close, situations and conditions on the world’s stage continue to get hotter. All sorts of challenging events have been lining the news headlines, and some, tucked well beneath the radar of the average nightly news viewer. For those of us who want to get a clearer picture of just what is going on in the world around us: here it is – the August 2016 update to our 2016 Global Forecast. 
In the western culture, we envision summer as a time of lazy hot days spent running up and down the beach littered with people, sea shells, and dried starfish.  Family picnics where there is always another watermelon to be carved, and enough fried chicken and potato salad to feed three generations of uncles, aunts, cousins, as well as everyone else in the family (including the family dog). Planes to catch, trains to board, gas tanks to fill, as the family heads off to yet another overpriced vacation spot. Wow! Summer is a time to have a blast; but if we’re not watchful and prayerful, that’s just what we may find ourselves caught up in: a blast! We’re about to take a look at a blast of headlines that have rocked our nation and world – for that matter.
We as a people have been, and will continue to, experience the sticky and pressing heat of a stressed economy, a torrid of brutal weather, and other violent earth shaking events, people, and the governments they live in, behaving more than just a little badly, growing famine, and deadly diseases that educated minds have so skillfully crafted in the laboratories. Of course all the above mentioned conditions take the joy out of summer, and out of life, for that matter – but a word to the wise: a curse causeless does not come. We, collectively as a people, with our erroneous thinking – that we are truly separate from everything and everyone else, have acted selfishly and disobediently.  We have dishonored the land and everything upon it – including one another. We have disobeyed the life giving principles of our Creator, Father, and Friend. We have activated a curse. Now some may think: I’m not the one in the lab coat contriving deadly diseases in order to contain this out of control population of useless people. Here’s the thing: if in any shape or form, we express less than the axiom: do unto others as you would have done to you, we do indeed lend our energy to that self-serving notion that – if I, or we, get rid of them, there’s more for us. 
The good news is: we’re not left clueless on how to begin to repair the damage that has already been done. Just like, given the correct conditions the body has a beautiful way of healing itself, we, as a world- body, have the potential to do the same. The rod of correction is already set and the swing has been initiated. Our cosmic spanking is on the way, and in all actuality has already begun. It is up to us to take steps to do our best to lessen the sting of our correction. A spanking does not last forever and if we humble ourselves it is most definitely an opportunity to learn. Changing how we view ourselves and our relationship to all life is of paramount importance.
In each update, we remind you – our readers, of the trouble spots that we said to pay close attention to when we first started compiling the 2016 Global Forecast. Here they are once more.

An election cycle that has certainly not been the norm, and is unlikely to become so
Increases in the amount of record natural disasters
Escalating oil prices 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
The human population becoming increasingly angry
Increases in diseases
Global financial unrest
Possible food shortages
And disruptions in travel (sea, road, air and rail)

As we read the following update, let’s reflect upon how we spent the hot days of summer. Was the experience more like leisurely walking through the lush green grass of a state park smelling every rose a bee was not busy occupying, or was it explaining why our child got arrested for rioting? Perhaps it was more like perusing the aisles of the local grocery store looking for the perfect ingredients for the family barbeque; or, was it more like picking up the broken pickle jars in an aisle after a 6.0 magnitude earthquake rocked our local grocery store. Was it like double checking the water bill to see which days to set the in-ground sprinkler in order to keep the lawn extra green, or was it more like making funeral arrangements for our mother who happened to be one of the victims washed away in the floods? This year has been filled with many life-changing events and this summer was no different. If happy reflections are what you were met with, then take a moment in gratitude to give thanks. Also, take a moment to offer prayers for those who suffered devastation and loss and prepare as there are dark elements still working to change many more lives before the year is over. 
In Matthew 24:4-8 Yahshua’s apostles asked Him: “What will be the sign of Your coming and the end of the age?” Yahshua replied: “Be on guard, so that no man deceives you.” He goes on to tell His apostles the areas where the deception would come from. He said: “Many will come in My name saying I’m anointed and will deceive many.” Remember this is a warning on how not to be deceived, therefore, they were not truly coming in His name; this is part of the deception. He goes on to say: “you will hear of wars and rumors of war” this is also part of the deception. The reason behind us seeing nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom is because Heavenly kingdoms waged war (Rev. 12:7); as a result certain authorities were displaced (Rev. 12:9). These fallen ones are now influencing the inhabitants of the earth (Rev.12:12) and they are using the leaders of the earth to bring forth their bidding through various forms of misinformation/deception (II Thess. 2:9; Rev. 16:13-14). This is the reason we see at this time, nations of the earth rising up, destroying, and overthrowing other nations during this time (Dan. 11:40-41). There is nothing that anyone could have done about it as this must come to pass (Matt. 24:6). To get to this point we had to fall far from the knowledge of our Heavenly Father (II Thess. 2:3). This is exactly the position that the inhabitants of the earth have been herded into. It is not very hard to see the result of losing the guidance of our Source. 

In the Book of Hosea 4:1-3 we see: “Hear the word of YHWH, O children of Israel, for YHWH has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of YHWH 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.” There is no doubt that our leaders seem to have gone mad today. These same leaders incite the people into error through media and pass laws to keep the unaware socially enslaved and detached from their Father. The following headlines are just part of the result (To read the articles or copy and paste link into your browser):

                                                                              EARTHQUAKES IN PLACE AFTER PLACE

We cautioned our readers to look out for another contraction around the time of late August/early September. In the previous headlines we saw millions of dead fish found in a New Jersey Marina in the USA on the 24th of August. On the same day we saw a 6.2 magnitude quake reduce the ancient cities of Amatrice, Accumoli and Pescara del Tronto in Italy to rubble. We saw on that same day a powerful 6.8 magnitude earthquake shook central Myanmar, a 5.8 magnitude quake struck WSW of Sungaipenuh, Indonesia, and a 5.9 magnitude earthquake hit Izu Islands in the Japan region. That is four major quakes in one day in late August. Something is happening if it hasen’t happened to you let’s not wait until it does before preparation is sought.  
While speaking of the various ways that they would try to deceive, Yahshua said in Matt. 24:8: “There will be earthquakes in place after place.” This is all part of the war that we have been writing about. Daniyl was told that in the end knowledge would be increased (Dan. 12:4). This is both technical and spiritual knowledge. For roughly 5,850 years, humanity had not moved beyond the horse and buggy. However, in the last 150 years we have gone from the horse and buggy to launching robots on other planets. This is by design, we had help. Knowledge has been increased because it has been given to us by other beings. In Rev. 16:14 we see that spirits of demons will go to the leaders of our planet in order to manipulate them into a great fall. These are the ones who have been allowed to seed man with great knowledge during this time. Great scientific breakthroughs have been made - two of which are being used to engineer earthquakes. This is not openly admitted. However, the CERN programs which have been developed to explore the "GOD” particle have the potential to manipulate the forces of the earth to cause earthquakes. We can make it quake where we choose to today and earthquake events are climbing steadily. Fracking is also a technology that is linked to earthquakes in the US. The USGS recorded 8,522 earthquakes during August 2016. Eight hundred, ninety-eight were above a magnitude 4.0.  The following 33 did not make the mainstream news in August however they did register above a magnitude 5.5:

                                                                                      OTHER EARTH SHAKING EVENTS

Again we bring attention to the contraction that began in late August. On the 23rd there was a terrifying moment that a giant sinkhole opened up on a busy pedestrian street swallowing people in China. The 26th and 28th brought the US similar occurrences as we saw a Phoenix city bus get stuck in sinkhole on a city street and an even larger sinkhole snarled traffic on a turnpike in Miami-Dade County. It was recorded on the 26th that there was a rare, deep-earth tremor that shook the entire planet for the first time in our recorded history. 
On the 29th the strongest recorded earthquake in decades occurred under Katla volcano in Southern Iceland. Two days later a Magnitude 3.8 quake was followed by dozens of aftershocks at the Bardarbunga volcano in Central Iceland. Something is happening and this is a call to actively set our minds to our Father and prepare. Noah prepared a sanctuary during his day and we are to prepare our sanctuaries today (Is. 26:20-21). Not just a physical one, but spiritually as well, knowing that we are the Sanctuary of YHWH if we serve Him.

                                                                                       NATURAL WEATHER EMERGENCIES

Imagine a warm breeze strokes your cheek as you lay peacefully on the picnic blanket gazing at cotton clouds rolling across the blue sky. The smell of geraniums and lilacs tickles your nose, and your belly begins to grumble just a bit as the smell of chicken wings, potato salad, hot biscuits, and apple pie sneak from under the wicker picnic basket’s lid. Pretty picture Huh. Perhaps your summer was full of imagery such as this. For many, both here and abroad, the month of August brought anything but warm breezes and the smell of geraniums. It wasn’t bellies grumbling, but rather dark skies over Florida, New Orleans, Wisconsin, Puerto Rico, China, and many other places, bringing torrential rains, flooding, tornadoes, and other fatal weather conditions. While some may have been planning that perfect summer picnic, others were scrambling for their very lives in order to not be counted among those killed by storm related disasters. 

This may be hard to believe, but most of these disasters are bio-engineered through the technology that has been given to us. The HAARP program has been used to manipulate the natural elementals of the heavens as CERN has been used to disturb the natural elementals in the earth. We can now create great storms where we choose and we have seen just that happening in increased fashion this year. During the latter days of this month we have seen flash floods push cars from the California desert highway on August 24th. A day later rivers in Northern Iowa rose to record levels after 214 mm of rain fell in only 24 Hours. A similar fate struck India that very day as floods in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh affected some 4 million people, as the Ganges River rose to record levels. On the 28th flash floods left cars stuck in tunnels in Ankara, Turkey and on the 29th 2 ft. of hail pummeled Colorado Springs in the middle of summer. On the 31st we saw 100s of homes damaged after floods and Landslides in Honduras and Typhoon Lionrock caused flooding in northern Japan. This is not the norm, by now we should know that something is going on worldwide and we would do well to pay closer attention. 

In the bible, James 4:9 says it plainly for those of us who are enjoying ourselves without the balance of reverence to our Source. “…let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness…” Verse 10 holds the key to our escape from these plagues that are only beginning to assault us on all fronts, “…Humble yourselves in the sight of YHWH (not in our own sight).” Let’s take a look at the following headlines and keep in mind what has been reported on so far in this update:

                                                                                   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, YHWH will also bring upon you, until you are destroyed. You will then be left few in number…”
We have become so accustomed to the nightly news riddled with one bad story after another that it has become our sad norm.  Even so, people try to go about their daily lives enjoying as much of it as they can, or at least pretending that they are. However, as the threat of the bio-engineered diseases such as the Zika Virus roam around it will become very un-nerving to the population. Solutions will be sought which will include spraying the mosquitos with neurotoxins that will only prove to give the public more diseases. Yahshua knew that this deception would be in the last days, just as He warned His apostles in Matthew 24:7. The following headlines will help us to see that there are diseases rampant all around the world, many of which are genetically engineered viruses and bacteria from a lab:

                                                                                  SIGNS AND WONDERS OF THE TIMES 

August also brought with it more than a few out of the ordinary, run of the mill events. The apostle Shaul also knew of the deception that would befall us today and wrote about it in II Thessalonians 2:9 as the works of darkness would be working with all sorts of signs and lying wonders. We have seen everything from a skull shaped asteroid to mysterious lights streaking across the skies, to an enormous increase in people being struck by lightning. In fact on August 29th 322 reindeer were killed by an apparent lightning strike in Hardangervidda, Norway. All the diabolical manipulation is actually causing some real problems. On August 25th we saw that hours of radar equipment outage caused flights to halt at South Florida's airports. This is a real problem and we will be seeing more of this in the upcoming months and years. Five days later there was a report by scientists that a new geological epoch called the Anthropocene is here. It may be easy to overlook these unusual events, but it would be prudent to take notice of the seemingly little things for they usually lead to something much greater. This month we saw many signs and real natural problems that are slowly but surely increasing upon us:

                                                                                      GLOBAL ECONOMIC UNREST

Jeremiah 17:5:    
This is what YHWH says: "Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from YHWH.”
Here in the West we have been conditioned to put our trust in a capitalistic society. Work hard – for money of course, and our efforts will pay off with security; A secure home, a secure job, a secure insurance policy, a secure retirement plan, and of course (for the well deserving) that dreamy summer vacation. There is only one problem. This unsustainable ideal was used to detach the people from the sustainable natural sources, just to later deliberately pull the rug from under the people. Without the knowledge to work the land that the earth will yield its fruits to us, we will be at the mercy of the fascinating system of government that is being manipulated to fail. The ‘American Dream’ is over and we need to get out of the bed that has been made for us and realize that the dream has turned out to be a bit of a nightmare. We entered a new contraction in late August/early September economically as well. We are seeing recalls in record numbers. On August 23rd Mitsubishi recalls 82,426 vehicles for CVT hesitation issues. On the 25th Ford recalls 113K vehicles for fuel and window issues and Whirlpool recalls 15,200 microwaves over fire hazard. A day later Mazda recalls 190,000 vehicles for steering hazard and Anheuser-Busch announces that they may have to lay off up to 5,500 employees. As if that is not unprecedented on its own, on the 27th GM said they are recalling 368,000 vehicles over windshield wipers issues and on the 31st Abercrombie & Fitch Co. say they are closing about 60 stores. This is no doubt putting great stress on the US economy. If and when the US economy fails nothing will be able to hold up that fat lady something will replace or rebuild her. We see that Africa's biggest economy officially entered recession on the 31st of August. This will cause a few nations to make some adjustments. However, when the world’s biggest economy officially falls, that will cause the world to make adjustments. A silver lining comes after this fall, but we need to survive the fall. Man’s way will not help us and we will see this very clearly, very soon. If we’re looking for security and peace we must turn our attention to the only Source that can deliver the same. As you read on a sobering question to ask is this: where have I placed my trust? In man’s system that can crumble at any time, or in the author of all life, abundance and peace? Let’s take a look at what the headlines say:

                                                                                      GLOBAL SOCIAL UNREST

Revelation 6:4 tells of a time period when peace is taken from the earth. We can read and see that power is granted to someone to do this. This is not a single person, but rather a system of government that is described in Revelation 16:12-14 as being instructed by fallen beings. The instructions of these beings come through individuals who control world affairs from behind the scenes. These individuals express themselves to the puppet world leaders through religious, economical, scientific and political policies. The puppet world leaders enact their policies to the citizens of the earth and in this manner the whole world is enslaved. These same rulers are those who give the word to go into nations and create an environment of destabilization if the leaders don’t play by the rules that they lay out. Today we see the governments of Brazil, Venezuela, and South Africa being shaken by interior turmoil. We saw all the nations that were affected in the so called ‘Arab Spring’. These are casualties of their policies. However, those who were outwardly used to shake the nations will also lose their control of power during this period that war is being waged from heaven (Dan. 7:11). In order to succeed they must detach the inhabitants of the earth from the Spirit of their Source. This is the reason why there must be a great falling away from truth in the last days (II Thess. 2:3). Not to over-simplify matters, but as we look at the following headlines it is apparent that the one law upon which the entire law and prophets hang is sorely missing from all corners of the earth. The Golden Rule is not dependent upon the seasons, weather conditions, or our moods at any given time. If humanity simply held tightly to this one rule there would be no need to even mention this next section for it would not exist. Sadly, this is not the case. In late August the German, Finland and the Czech governments all warned their people to stock pile food and water. They did this because they know that something is about to happen. 
As we zoom in, the contraction brings us deadly suicide bomb attacks in the port city of Aden in Yemen on the 29th, another at a wedding party in southern Iraq, and yet another at the Chinese embassy in Kyrgyzstan. One day later we see a deadly car bomb attack near the Somali president’s palace. On the 31st we see more as there are two bomb explosions in Lebanon and race riots being provoked in Australia. It is clear that someone is not treating their neighbor the way that they would want to be treated, whether it’s by provocation, or by retaliation. As we look at this month’s headlines we can clearly see that peace is being taken from the earth:

                                                                          NATIONS ALERTED TO WATCH FOR SOCIAL UNREST

We’ve been keeping an especially close eye on the events in Turkey, and this summer the tensions there have definitely continued to heat up. Turkey has had a rift with NATO, and has pivoted toward Russia. Turkey is just one of many nations that are now looking to the kings of the East (China and Russia) for military and economic security. As this is taking place the US is being sacrificed and their global influence has begun to wane. However, as Yahshua said: “Make sure that no man deceives you” this is all staged for the public’s eyes. The US has been infiltrated just as Babylon was infiltrated as they grew in prestige and let their guards down. The people in the US don’t know this, but those who are behind the scenes and their pawns who have sold the US people know exactly what is happening. Turkey is very important strategically. It is the nation that connects the East and the West, and trouble in Turkey can destabilize the Middle East and Europe, threatening US interests and the interests of the kings of the East who are being set in place to counter US dominance and influence. Iran’s relationship with the US is also supposed to create distrust in the US by other Middle Eastern allies. This is all supposed to create a great messy global pot of soup, but it’s a part of the misinformation. Remember that Yahshua said: “Make sure that these things don’t trouble you for the end is not yet.”  In other words, the end will not come by these means. However, these are signs of the end days and we must be on guard in order not to be deceived by what those who are losing their ability to manipulate in the earth are doing, as their illusive acts must first come to pass. Again, in late August over a two day period we see the contraction intensify as Turkey enters into Syria, and the Syrian government condemns this action. On the same day a car bomb detonates outside a restaurant near the Turkish embassy in Mogadishu, Somali. A day later a US warship fired warning shots at an Iranian military vessel and on the 26th there was a bomb attack in SE Turkey. Yes, many will die, as the agenda of these people is to take peace from the earth and they will succeed, because YHWH has allowed this to be granted to them (Rev. 6:4). The following are more headlines from Iran and Turkey:

Planning a week long European trip may have been a one-time summer vacation dream, but with the current refugee crisis and other terrorist threats looming in the air, one would have been better off renting a copy of An American in Paris and enjoying a bowl of organic popcorn. The period of contraction alone has proven to be more like a nightmare for those involved. During the time that we said another level of contraction would take place there was a bomb attack at a sport center in Belgium and an explosion and fire attack at Brussels Criminology Institute. The following headlines point to the peace that is being taken from the earth:

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

In the 2016 Global Forecast we stated that great scandals would emerge causing disruptions in the lives of men and women of renown. You might think that summertime brings with it rest, relaxation, enjoyment, and possibly, the escape from the everyday struggles that meet us in life. Well, as you are about to read, this was not the case for some very prominent and influential people who faced this August sitting on the hot seat, rather than enjoying time on the hot beach. Not all of these people have been hit with scandals, some resign in order that the scandal is not made public and some are taken out of the way in an attempt to keep diabolical activities hidden. However, many things will be coming to light this year as the war for control of the planet continues. During this time, it is important to keep at the forefront of our minds what YHWH clearly inspired to be written that we should not put our trust in men, or women, for that matter. That is, men or women who allow themselves to be governed by the covetousness of worldly riches, rather than, by the spirit of humility and service which comes from obeying the principles of YHWH. As we see scandals continue to emerge, it would behoove us to search our holy books to look for the examples of the qualities that a true leader should possess. Take for example King Solomon. In I Kings 3:4 YHWH appeared to Solomon in a dream saying: “Ask. What should I give you?” Notice Solomon’s wise reply in verse 9: “So give Your servant an obedient heart to judge Your people and to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?” Wow! Solomon didn’t ask for material wealth, or fame, or the next I-Phone for himself, but rather, for an obedient heart. If we continue reading in verse 10, we’ll see that YHWH was pleased with Solomon’s request. Perhaps our leaders would do well to follow the example of the man the scriptures call the wisest who was recorded to have ever lived.

                                                                                      POLITICAL UNREST

Again, we see that in the month of August more than just the temperatures were rising. The political climate of turbulence is assuredly another foreboding of the times we live in. YHWH’s system of government is designed to ensure the peace and well-being of all. The leaders of the people are to discern and judge matters according to the life giving principles of heaven, not according to their own hidden, or not so hidden, agendas. It was written in I Samuel 8:7 the people have rejected YHWH as their king. Rejecting YHWH in essence is to reject the ability to make sound judgments in governing oneself, or even other people. When we finally get it right we will collectively experience societies where equanimity and peace are the norm. Much of what we see has been staged to make the leaders look incompetent in many ways so when they cook up their relief plan the people will be more than ready to accept what they offer to replace what’s in place. We don’t believe that Trump is in the political game to win as much as he is in the game to assist the kings of the East in exposing certain political criminals that have been used to enslave and deceive the people. Their time has come and a new level of deception is arising as the way is being set for the kings of the East. Let’s look at some of the political headlines:

                                                                            DISRUPTIONS IN TRANSPORTATION

This update may sound crazy, but we should know that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. One fact is that the magnetic field of our planet is changing and it is causing power outages and glitches in electronic systems all over the world. Some plane crashes are ordered by elite forces, but today most are due to another factor. Possibly one of the chief hallmarks of summertime is traveling to and from those vacation destinations. This August, however, was not an auspicious time for travel especially by air. The majority of mishaps this month involved aircrafts, but road transportation proved to be deadly for some as well. Let’s take a look and see if we can discern that something out of the ordinary is happening:

As summer draws to an end, so does our August forecast. If we can say that we had a carefree, enjoyable summer we can consider ourselves fortunate, lucky, or perhaps even blessed. As has been evident through this forecast, for many, this summer was filled with devastation and calamity. We mentioned this in our last forecast and its worth repeating here: “I will say to Yahweh. My refuge and my fortress, my Father, in whom I trust.  He will deliver you from the hunter’s net, from the destructive plague...Because you have made Yahweh- your refuge the Most High- your dwelling place, no harm will come to you.” Of course it is understood that all life – as we physically know it on earth– must one day come to an end; but the manner by which it ends, and the state of the individual losing it, depends greatly on our standing with Yahweh. If you can see these events as signs of the times, then please don’t delay in taking action. Paradoxically, taking action may be something as simple as: being still and trusting in Yahweh. It is increasingly clear that the systems of man are failing, so now would be as good a time as any to turn our attention to our Father by learning of, and practicing His ways. There is a great deal that will be revealed this year. However there is a great deal that will remain hidden. On August 24th China President Xi promoted protection of ecosystem and China and US vowed implementation of the Paris climate agreement. On the surface this looks great however we urge all to look into the details. Through the touting of climate change a play is being made for the control of the people and the resources of this planet under the banner of sustainable development. The technical knowledge that has been made privy to man is proving to be destructive, as it is in the possession and control of people of compromised imaginations (Rev. 6:8). The lower passion and desire in us to rule over our fellow man is now causing a great rift among some pawns whos' desire it is to have a legacy in the earth. We are now seeing the symptoms in high profile people resigning due to scandals, leaving the public eye and even dying. The symptoms are also being manifested in great scandals for powerful companies. Not all the people and companies are guilty of what they have been publicly charged for, however someone did not play by the rules that were laid out and an example has been made. YHWH is in control as He was in the days of Ahab the king of the northern kingdom of Israel (I Kings 22:22-23) and during the days of the building of the tower of Babel (Gen. 11:4-8). He will do in like manner as He did then to deal with the haughty in spirit.
