Click the link, http://www.nps.gov/nama/planyourvisit/cherry-blossom-bloom.htm then scroll down to the graph and notice that the UNFILLED ‘Fluffy White’ BOX was filled on the 24th. Looking at the previous 15 years, a 5.2 day average separates ‘Fluffy White’ from ‘Peak Bloom’.

That being said before or on Saturday March 29, 2008 and possibly after, our graph will be complete but will it fulfill this/these texts?

Isaiah 18:5 For before the harvest, WHEN THE BUD IS PERFECT, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches.(Jeremiah 50:22-24, 31-32) 6 They shall be left together unto the fowls of the mountains, (Isaiah 56:9, Ezekiel 32:1-8) and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.

Adding even more intrigue to this story is the fact that President Bush will be starting an overseas trip on March 31st and be meeting with Vladmir ‘Gog’ Putin on, you guessed it, 1 Nisan/ April 6, 2008! Link to story; http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,341828,00.html

My opinion and the scenario I’m looking at, has the President fulfilling Jeremiah 50:31-32 when the “bud” becomes perfect and our cities are attacked! If that is the case, he may never leave Monday and if this happens at Peak Bloom/Perfect Bud, then over in Israel, almost simultaneously or a day later, Damascus could become a “ruinous heap” and Israel’s regional enemies, Psalm 83, be eliminated.

Isaiah 17:11 In the day you shall make thy plant to grow, and in the morning you shall make thy seed to flourish: but THE HARVEST SHALL BE A HEAP in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow. This verse is not saying that what I believe is the ‘barley’ harvest, has to be ruined exactly on 1 Nisan/April 6, but can happen before that day, when Psalm 83 and Isaiah 17:1 are fulfilled.

SLIGHT CHANGE IN SCENARIO

With the ‘perfect bud” peaking earlier than they projected, the Gog/Magog war could be fulfilled on 1 Nisan, remember God is going to ‘sanctify’ His Name before the nations on that day and the following verses make a case for two separate events on two separate days and Gog/Magog could be fulfilled on the ‘first day’ of the year, 1 Nisan?

It will be, Isaiah 34:8 “THE DAY of the LORD’S vengeance, and THE YEAR of recompense for the controversy of Zion”,

Isaiah 35:1, The wilderness and the desert shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as a rose. 4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompense; HE WILL COME AND SAVE YOU.

Isaiah 61:2b…and THE DAY of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; and again in Isaiah 63:4 For THE DAY of vengeance is in mine heart, AND THE YEAR of my redeemed is come.

Keep that ‘prayer closet’ door ajar. Giving Him the glory an Ezekiel 33:6 watching one REPENT the Kingdom of God is at hand
