We are watching historic changes taking place in the world. Often, before a big earthquake there will be a series of smaller temblors called foreshocks. For instance, in Israel the past 30 days have seen four minor quakes. These have triggered concerns among some authorities that a major earthquake may be on the horizon. The same is true in the geopolitical world. Shake-ups will occur within countries or between nations, all leading up to the Big One – a global event that rocks the planet.
It’s hard to know exactly when this round of international quakes began, but we can certainly see them increasing in strength. There has been a profound moral erosion in a great many of the world’s nations. Cultural division has segmented many populations and has often expressed itself in violent ways. Elections in numerous countries, particularly in the US, Israel, and a number of European nations, ushered in new, weak governments. Then came a strong quake that shook the global landscape. The US executed a humiliating pull-out from Afghanistan. At that moment, the established superpower hierarchy collapsed sending shockwaves throughout the world. But despite the magnitude of that shake-up, the Big One is yet to come.
How do all these changes relate to what we are seeing with Russia and Ukraine? This border conflict, which might lead to all-out war, is another foreshock that could potentially usher in the Big One. What is the Big One? It is the war that we read about in Ezekiel 38:
Ezekiel 38:14-16 KJV – “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it? And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army: and thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.”
This is the war that will pave the way for the rise of the antichrist and the seven-year tribulation. Right now, with so many prophecies clearly fulfilled in the re-creation of Israel and its economic, military, technological, and cultural flourishing, we are undoubtedly living in the time of Ezekiel 37. However, as we look around us, particularly as we see what is happening in Russia and in America, it appears that the page is now turning to Ezekiel 38.
What we are watching now is a move that Russian President Vladimir Putin has been planning for many years. We know this because since 2014 Russia has built up its wealth funds, decreasing its dependence on foreign investors and moving away from a reliance on the US dollar and other currencies. He has also been playing a long game in creating a European dependence upon Russian gas. The previous US president understood this and worked to not only make America energy independent but insisted that its European allies break away from Russian energy. He also supported the EastMed pipeline which would carry Israeli gas through Cyprus to Greece. This would act as a counterbalance to Russia’s Nord Stream 2 and would serve as a way for Europe to support and lean on its allies rather than its rivals. The new president, however, reversed course on those strategies. As a result of these long-term tactics, Russia knows that it is strong enough to withstand most sanctions that will be brought against it. Moscow also knows that any sanctions that are put into effect will not be strong, because all they need to do to get Europe to bend to their desires is to threaten to turn off the Nord Stream 1 pipeline.

There are riches from natural resources everywhere, even God can allow more discovered; Israel discovered more oil in riches as an example. Point being, even USA with their own oil started exporting (selling us out IMO), and yet depends, depended on Middle East for oil, right? Makes NO sense? So every country acts hungry when their tummy is already full...greed!
An Earth of plenty. Take the BS Climate Change new technology to use for energy and still they whine about gas reserves shared, or blackmailed to be cut off. Shows us none of their money maker's work IMO! Not buying the narrative, and if all this BS causes so much strife, Europe, other countries should do with what they have perhaps than risk wars. Russia is a hot mess, always has been, we empowered them, now they are full of themselves. Looking down the road for the people's interest never occurred to greedy Globalist, USA included, in my opinion. Remember the lies in 70's about USA gas shortage? Now gas plenty enough to export going on, makes any sense? 2022 is the year to see truths, know how much a few on Earth have orchestrated most of mankind's strife.
Now, the masses don't have to comply anymore, they need rise up to enjoy the fruits given for all on Earth, IMO!
