Prayer Service for Tornado Victims, MERS, Dreams and Middle East Turmoil

 
     This evening I attended the First Baptist Church of Moore Prayer service for the Moore tornado victims. It is quite touching and yet heart breaking at the same time. I found myself missing the family that I used to have (a previous relationship awarded me the kids of my significant other at the time with whom I grew closer to then I have anyone excluding my mother) [and actually left the service depressed]. The choir did a wonderful job as well as the touching prayers of church Pastor Kevin, Rabbi Vered Harris and Archbishop Paul S. Coakley from the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City. The adorable children of the Briarwood Elementary School Choir sang a heart warming rendition of 'Jesus Loves' me after being greeted with a standing ovation which lasted for several minutes. There was music and the Governor Mary Fallin spoke. The entire service lasted about an hour and a half.
 

In Regards to A Couple of Dreams I Have Recently Had:

*A month or so ago I had a dream about a catastrophic storm that hit the area (but missed Norman). The dream stuck with me for awhile. In the aftermath of the May 20th tornado I cant help but wonder if the dream was a premonition. It felt like such, as I get what seem to be prophetic dreams from time to time.
 
*I wont go too much into the details of this dream as it is not necessary. After I was baptised last night I spoke with the preacher for awhile in his room. As I was getting ready to leave we embraced hands. It was at that point that I recognized the setting from a dream I had last week. The details were interestingly similar. When I had that dream, I couldn't help but feel that it was prophetic in some way. I believe that the events of last night confirmed the dream.
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 
     As time progresses God reveals things to us more and more as the prophesied time arrives. In the distant past, end times prophecies, while descriptive, did not give a full picture or time line of coming events. Prophecy that was meant to take place over thousands of years have been given as brief revelation, but in time those revelations are expanded on and detailed as necessary for the understanding of the people that the prophecy is meant for. This is called progressive revelation. As we approach the designated times, God reveals to us details about specific events as we need to understand them.
 
     Last night (this morning) at approximately 0045, I was baptised by a non-denominational preacher. We spoke awhile on spiritual and theological topics. He convinced me the need to be baptised into "God's Church", rather then into a specific denomination (I was baptised into the Latter Day Saints church on Christmas day 2003). While getting ready to go to sleep I prayed for forgiveness of my sins and that God would make me into the person he wants me to be. I am going to try and use this event to better myself and become a better person and let go of anger and negative destructive emotions. It is time to begin living the best life that I can live. I confessed that I believe in and accept Christ's gift of salvation, which I gladly accepted.
 
     Today rockets have his the southern suburbs of Beirut, Lebanon. Five people (at least) have been injured when a residential building and car dealership were h it. A third fired rocket failed to explode. The second floor of a residential building was struck, however no injuries resulted because of it. As of this afternoon (CST) it was too early to know who was responsible for the attacks.
 
     Syria has agreed to attend the Geneva peace talks. The growing chaos and conflicts in the Middle East are setting the stage for hostile action against Israel. In no certain time will the God/Magog war occur (most likely AFTER the Antichrist signs a seven year peace treaty with Israel). The new coronavirus in Saudi Arabia has claimed its 18th victim. In Saudi Arabia a large number of those who have dies have been elderly people with chronic illness, as was the case with the newest victim. So far 44 cases have been confirmed world wide. The virus has been named Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS). An alert has been raised by the World Health Organization [Plagues in diverse places].

My Baptism and Near Future Plans

     Last night I was baptised by a non-denominational preacher. I had previously been baptised as a Mormon on Christmas day of 2003 in San Diego while in Marine Corps Recruit Training at Camp Pendleton. After talking some time and discussing scriptural matters I agreed to be baptised last night. I followed up the experience with repentance and confession of sin. I have previously been saved and accepted Yeshua HaMashiach as my saviour. My immediate future is unsure as things have been chaotic for quite some time for me, and I will try and update my blog when able. If you don't see any posts for awhile, keep checking back. I will get back to it. I will be doing some travel soon and while I have not decided exactly where I am going with any certainty I have narrowed down a few possible locations: San Francisco, Wisconsin, Dallas TX, Moore or Oklahoma City OK or Tennessee. I will keep you updated on what those plans are.

     I did not attend church this morning as I usual try to. However I will be attending a Prayer service this afternoon in Moore, OK. President Obama was in Moore today inspecting the damage and meeting with survivors. He spoke there as well, but I was unable to see or hear his speech.

Flu predictions, Asteroids and Unpleasant Weather

For since the beginning of the world
Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear,
Nor has the eye seen any God besides You,
Who acts for the one who waits for Him.
      -Isaiah 64:4 (NKJV)
 
I am the Vine and you are the branches. Get your life from Me. Then I will live in you and you will give much fruit. You can do nothing without Me.      -John 15:5 (NLV)
 
For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.     -Psalms 36:9 (NLT)

  I believe that this year's flu season will be bad again. Maybe worse than the previous one. More hospitalizations and deaths. The northern half of the east coast is getting cold and wet weather. Flooding in some states is possible and snow may become present in upper elevations. One person has died from flooding in San Antonio, Texas. There continues to be drama surrounding the Jody Arias trial (which will go on and on for quite some time I am sure).

     At least one of the respiratory cases in Alabama has been identified as having, or has had H3N2 (the flu strain from the previous epidemic). H3N2---Reverse the number order and you get 23. Asteroid QE2 will be making its closest approach to earth on May 31st. Again we are having a close fly by of a NEO? This one shouldn't endanger the earth, as it is going to pass seven times the distance of the moon. But, remember the previous asteroid fly by in February? On the same day just hours before it made its closest approach to earth, the skies over Russia were lit up by an exploding meteor. Could we have another fire ball event around May 31st? Comet ISON will also be showing up this winter. 2013 is looking like the year of meteors. Could the skies be falling?

     A stomach bug seems to be making the rounds in my neck of the woods. Kind of a weird part of the year for stuff to be spreading.

     After the Antichrist proclaims himself to be God, I think Atheism will be rare, if not on its way to extinction. Especially after he is assassinated and rises from the dead.

Some Random Spiritual Thoughts

     God reveals himself to us when we are ready. When the time is right. You will know God's presence by a burning or warm sensation in your chest or stomach. That is the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Isaiah Symbology
Head=Elder. Person deserving of highest regard and respect.
Tail=False prophet.

Storm front to effect parts of the U.S.

Take note of what of my message here.  This following week we will see various weather patterns and unusual weather occurrences. The weather will be severe with tornadoes and flooding in parts of the country. There will indeed be snow in the north east. He is coming. John the Conqueror.

It is advisable to begin stocking up on medical supplies, non-perishable food, dog food and other necessary survival supplies. These things may not be available in the not too distant future.

A messenger of God arrived in the year 1844, just as the Millerites predicted. Though he did not come in the form they were expecting.

Epidemics and pestilence is coming.

Look for the number 216. Do you know its significance? If you don't, it is explained in older posts on this blog.

I believe that by this time next week there will be more weather related deaths in the U.S.

Possible Time Line of the Beggining of the End

>Attack against Israel by Russia and neighboring Islamic countries (to include some in Africa). Israel is protected by God, and all enemy forces are miraculously defeated by divine intervention, hail and earthquake. (Gog/Magog War)

>Seven year peace agreement comes together with Israel. Person setting up the agreement is the Antichrist. Rapture occurs.

>After 3 and 1/2 years the Antichrist will break the peace treaty with Israel and go into the Holy Temple and proclaim himself God (Abomination of Desolation).

>Seven Bowl, Seven Trumpets and Seven Vials of Judgement poured out on the world.

>Armageddon. God and Holy army defeats forces of darkness in the valley of Megido.

>Millennial Kingdom (1,000 year reign by Messiah).

>Satan let out of Hell to tempt the world again. Second war between forces of light and darkness. Good victorious.

>Old world is destroyed. New world and universe created. Perfect paradise for eternity.

Earthquakes and Bad Weather

     According to weather.com another severe weather even may occur next Wednesday through Friday. Tornadoes will be possible again. (source: http://www.weather.com/news/tornado-central/severe-threat-plains-again-20130524). Some weekend storms can be expected for this memorial day weekend in the Oklahoma neck of the woods. Of course, what do you expect for memorial day weekend?

     Today's 5.7 earthquake in northern California has been followed by a swarm of after schocks. Snow may be expected for the north east united states says http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/05/24/18462699-winter-maybe-even-snow-to-return-for-memorial-day-weekend?lite. This years winter just wont go away! That area of the country has been seeing some wet weather with parts of Connecticut flooding. Likewise, winter weather has hit parts of western Europe.
