Israel, Palestine, Deception & the Four Horsemen!
The four horsemen of Revelation are riding and their progress is very much related to the trajectory of Jesus’ return to the land and of creating the atmosphere for the false messiah to arrive.
Amid the ongoing complexities surrounding Israel and the Palestinians, a web of misinformation has woven a deceptive narrative throughout the world. In tackling this subject let’s begin with Jesus! Jesus is Jewish! He was born in Israel, fulfilling the word of prophecy. He will return to Israel, again fulfilling prophecy—showing Israel’s permanence in the land!
After the Fall, God's divine intention was to extend salvation to the world by descending to Earth, to redeem humanity by paying the penalty for their sins. Embedded within His plan was a twofold work into which everything falls—first, to prepare a people for His first coming in the flesh as the Savior and Redeemer—accomplished in Israel over 2000 years ago. The second is, to prepare the world for HIS RETURN AS LORD AND KING to rule over the planet.
“The kings of the earth prepare for battle; the rulers plot together against the LORD and against His anointed one. “Let us break their chains,” they cry, “and free ourselves from slavery to God.” But the One who rules in heaven laughs. The Lord scoffs at them. Then in anger He rebukes them, terrifying them with His fierce fury. For the Lord declares, “I have placed My chosen king on the throne in Jerusalem, on My holy mountain.” Psalm 2:2-6:
God’s transcendent plan began in Israel and will also be completed in Israel. God’s timeline for the unfolding of this plan, and all notable events on it, are embedded within Israel’s Journey from its beginning to the Day of its fulfillment.
In order to accomplish this plan, God had to prepare a people to understand the protocols of relating to a Holy God, One who is also a Consuming Fire, and therefore the protocols of becoming the host nation of His Presence both in spirit and in flesh.
God chose Abraham to be His prototype and directed him to go to a land He would show Him—reserved specifically for this work. The Land of Israel became the laboratory, so to speak for His purposes. God picked this strategic spot, He called His portion, a land centred in the nations, where He would accomplish His plan. God declared numerous times in Scripture that this Land belonged to Him.
“I will also gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; they have also divided My land.” Joel 3:2
Deception Regarding The Land:
In regard to the dispute over the land, there is none! The Land belongs to God and He gives it to whom He wills. He gave Israel the Land with Divine purpose to accomplish His will and eternal plan. The Land was originally called Canaan, and was occupied by ten evil nations.
“On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying: "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates—the Kenites, the Kenezzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites." Genesis 15:18
Jacob, whose name God later changed to Israel settled there and the land became the nation of Israel. Joshua was later commanded by God to drive out all these nations. However, there is no mention of Palestine or Palestinians in the Bible which covers the time span of Israel’s relationship with the land from approx. 2000 years before Christ until 70.AD when the temple was destroyed by the Romans, and the Jews were dispersed.
To claim an attachment to the land, Palestinians today say they are descendants of the Philistines. The original name in Strong’s is Pelisheth a region of Syria; the Philistines also lived along the coastal regions of Gaza and phoenicia. It is said that by the fifth century BC, that all historical and archaeological traces of the Philistines had disappeared and that the Greek conquests in the following century eliminated the last remaining traces of them as a people. So, then the question remains, who are the Palestinians and where did they come from?
The Greeks were the first to use the name ‘Palestine’ to refer to the larger region. The name Palestine does come directly from the name ‘Philistine.’ The Romans later began using the term Syria Palaestina for the area covered by Judea and Samaria that and also included northern Jordan and Syria.
However, it is important to note that while the name of the land became Palestine that it was the Jewish people who occupied the land—who lived there, from the time Joshua conquered it, until, during and after the era of the Romans. So, in essence this would make the Jews the first Palestinians. To break through the confusion it is important to separate the name of the land from the people of the land as it was changed by the many empires that occupied it. The Muslims, the Romans, the Persians, and the Crusaders, all ruled over Israel for a time, and in 1517 the Ottoman Empire conquered the entire region. But throughout its history, Jewish people continued to live in the land, though it became a fairly desolate land.
In 1917, during World War I, the British took over control of Palestine and the British Mandate for Palestine was established. After the World War I, the territories of Palestine, Syria and Iraq and Trans Jordan became defined and established. The British government then implemented the Balfour Declaration to establish a national home for the Jewish people. After World War II, Jewish refugees from the Holocaust began to return home.
In 1948 when the U.N voted for the independence and creation of Israel, the Surrounding Arab nations immediately declared war on Israel. The Jewish leaders at that time asked the Arabs to stay and live together in peace. However, they made known their intentions to drive Israel into the sea. Many Arabs left because of the war and others when they saw they were losing the war.
During this time hundreds of thousands of Jews were also forced to leave the Arab and Muslim nations and lost their properties, many finding a home in Israel. The surrounding Arabs nations have consistently refused to accept and absorb the displaced Arab people ensuring the refugee problem stays alive. It is important to note that even though Jerusalem is claimed by the Arabs as a holy Islamic site, that Jerusalem is mentioned not once in the Koran yet over 580 times in the Bible. This land is Holy to God!
THE FOUR HORSEMEN ARE RIDING
The four horsemen of Revelation are riding and their progress is very much related to the trajectory of Jesus’ return to the land and of creating the atmosphere for the false messiah to arrive. To set the stage for this, the white horse comes as an angel disguised as light. to prepare the ground, to get the world on board with Satan’s diabolic and unfolding agenda. This horseman that conquers and is given a crown is a demonic principality of deception. In the decade beginning in 2020 an unprecedented, collossal cloud of deception descended over the planet like a great blanket. A certain professor recently said of this time, “…it is unquestionably the largest and most sophisticated propaganda operation in all history.”
The prince of Deception came riding through all nations, all forms of media, politics, medicine, medical faculty, all social media, business through mega-corporations, in churches, in every nation, in every aspect and sphere of life. Deception was released on a grand scale capturing the souls of man and releasing unparalleled division in the world! Even though many are now waking up and beginning to see, deception has conquered and has a firm grip on the world. Again, great deception is blanketing the earth in regard to the issue of the Palestinians.
Unless people learn to think critically and their hearts are healed, they won't make it through these times, as the war is over who controls the narrative! Those who control the story are taking captive the minds of people who are easily swayed. It is important to hold to our beliefs, and stand firm on the truth of God’s Word. We cannot stay in the place of wavering between two opinions. Who do you serve? Who will you Serve? “If the Lord is God follow Him!” (1Kings 18:21)
The second horseman was war. It was red and permitted to take peace from the Earth. War began in 2022 when Russia enter into the conflict with Ukraine and America. Hamas then attacked Israel, and the US sent ships to the Mediterranean. China has also sent ships to the area and to Taiwan. Potential war is breaking out with Syria, Lebanon, and Iran—the Prince of Persia who is stirring the cauldron of war. These wars are escalating and could potentially evolve into WWIII.
“You will hear of wars and rumors of wars but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All the beginning of birth pains.” Matthew 24:6
In giving birth, when the water breaks, contractions follow. The water initiates the travail, and the labour pains come to facilitate the birth. Jesus said, Out of your wombs will flow Rivers of living water. It was on the Last and Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles that Jesus stood and made that statement!
It is not a coincidence that the Hamas Attack also came on the Feast of Tabernacles. It is significant that it happened on the last great Day of this last Feast—the end-time Feast representing the final Ingathering of the Harvest and the return of Christ. This Attack has begun the shaking now dividing the world and will usher in the last great Harvest.
“And the dragon crouched before the woman who was about to give birth—poised to devour the baby the moment it was born. And she brought forth a MAN CHILD, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to His throne.” Revelation 12:4-5
We have arrived at an incredible and significant time in history—the birthing the Man Child—a New Man of the stature of Christ in preparation for WAR!
The Third Horseman: I was reminded of a previous word I wrote in January of 2023. I woke in the middle of the night and as random thoughts were swirling around in my mind, a word penetrated as if from behind my thoughts, and like an arrow, it pushed through to the front. I then heard the words, a measure of wheat sold for a denarius. That got my attention because I knew it was from the book of Revelation. So, in the morning as I went to read it, God directed me to a particular Bible that was not my usual one. It was a commentary, Bible. When I opened it, it opened exactly to the page marked Revelations 6.
“When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come and see." So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine." Revelations 6:5-6
As I began to ponder this, I heard the Lord say to read the commentary on the verse which said: The Black Horse represents economic distress leading to social dysfunction indicated by scales used in commerce. Rampant inflation is shown by the cost of the staples of life. Inflation has been one of the causes of the social dysfuntion, lawlessness and violence we are now seeing. I believe we should be prepared if God is giving a warning.
I believe the Fourth Horseman has now been released through Hamas and Islam which of which has been said is a cult of death.
“So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.” Revelation 6:8
The horsemen are riding! Satan is the god of this world, and he has many people established in positions of power. Pandora’s box has been opened; numerous demonic portals have been opened around the world. The world has said yes to him and has come into agreement with Deception. Many of our government and business leaders flock to Davos for the WEF meetings—one of the headquarters of deception.
“The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants, because they have transgressed the laws, Changed the ordinance, Broken the everlasting covenant.” Isaiah 24:5
In my last article I shared: I heard the Lord say that there is a perfect storm on the horizon. Storms are erupting on many fronts as these four horses ride. Satan is using Iran through Hamas to light the world on fire! 2024 will put a demand on people to rise to a higher stature in character, fortitude, and maturity. God is now asking His Body, as He asked Jeremiah:
"If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, Then how can you contend with horses? And if in the land of peace, in which you trusted, they wearied you, then how will you do in the floodplain of the Jordan?” Jeremiah 12:5
In 2024 we will have to contend with the horses. However, in all of this, the Glory of God will come! Unprecedented moves of God are coming on the earth, to awaken a vast harvest of people.
Nevertheless, as we bask in the Glory of His Presence, and begin to shine in our spheres, we cannot allow ourselves to be taken off our guard, as there is still much turbulence yet to come on the Earth in the days ahead.
