"A possible prophetic
outlook for 2012..."

The
date of April 6, 2009 was found counting 1260 (3.5 X 360)
days back from the Feast of Trumpets in 2012. Paul gave us
Feast of Trumpets (I Thess. 4-5) for Christ's return, and
Daniel (12:10-12) gave us the year which is 45 years after
Jerusalem was retaken by Jews in 1967. All other dates are
merely my conjecture. For how my post-trib view of the
fulfillments of the seals, trumpets, and vials, read the
2011 booklet on my site at http://www.kneelingmedia.org/AwakeBride/.
On
April 6, 2009, President Obama began his 3.5 years as the
“little horn” by announcing in Turkey that “The United
States is not, and never will be, at war with Islam.” In the
first three months of 2011, President Obama systematically
removed three of the ten horns of the Sunni beast: Tunisia,
Egypt, and Libya. President Obama has not attempted to
remove the two horns of the Shia beast: Muqtada al-Sadr, the
leader of the Mahdi army in Iraq; and Ahmadenijad, the
dictator of Iran (Persia). The Sunni and Shia hate the
idolatrous Wahhabi of Saudi Arabia (whore of Babylon).
In
October 2011, the US uncovered an Iranain plot to
assassinate the Saudi Ambassador in DC. The Saudis are
afraid the Iranians will attack them on their own soil.
Al-Qaeda's attempts to blow-up the Kaaba in Mecca failed,
but the Sunni beast will destroy the Jeddah-Mecca area
(possibly with a little help from Shia Iran). The port of
Jeddah sends out oil tankers throughout the world. The
Saudis have had the US and other countries wrapped around
their little oily fingers for generations.
“And
the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, which have
received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one
hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give
their power and strength to the beast. These shall make
war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for
he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are
with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. And he said
to me, The waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are
peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. And the
ten horns which you saw on the beast, these shall hate the
whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall
eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God has put in
their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give
their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God shall
be fulfilled. And the woman which you saw is that great
city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.” (Rev.
17:12-18)
This
destruction will be quick and devastating, and the smoke
will be visible for miles.
“Therefore
shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning,
and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for
strong is the Lord God who judges her. And the kings of
the earth, who have committed fornication and lived
deliciously with her, shall mourn her, and lament for her,
when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing
afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas
that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour
is your judgment come.” (Rev. 18:8-10)
That
sounds like a conventional bomb. This is “mystery Babylon”
not the city in Iraq. Babylon was the religious center of
its time, today all Muslims pray facing Mecca.
The
book of Esther is read during Israel's holiday of Purim.
Purim is March 8, 2012 this year. In Persia, Haman cast lots
(purim)
for the best day to annihilate the Jews, and arrived with
the 13th of Adar (Esther 3:13), which is the twelfth month
of the Hebrew calendar. Because Esther fasted and prayed and
boldly pleaded to the king for her people, the Jews were
granted authrority to kill their persecutors on that day
instead. Though Leon Panetta suggested Israel may attack
Iran in April, May or June, I think March 8th would be
poetic justice for the modern-day Haman.
Today
on The 700 Club, Erick Stakelbeck stated that war against
Israel would occur this year. He also suggested Isaiah 17:1
might be fulfilled soon.
“The
burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from
being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.” (Isaiah
17:1)
For
more of Stakelbeck's amazing indepth reporting, check out
his “Stakelbeck on Terror” at
http://blogs.cbn.com/stakelbeckonterror
and don't be alarmed if his site is under attack and
difficult to view. Though Tiglath-Pileser beseiged Damascus
for three years, the Assyrians did not leave it as a heap of
ruins.
This
April 6, 2012 will be the evening prior to Passover
commemorating Yahweh's deliverance of the Jews from Egypt.
Egyptians might seek some poetic justice of their own in
attacking Israel that day or during the following week of
Unleavened Bread.
On
the day of Messiah's return, September 16, 2012, some
country is going to use chemical and/or nuclear bombs
according to Zechariah, or the LORD will simulate something
like it.
“And
this shall be the plague with which the LORD will smite
all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their
flesh shall consume away while they stand on their feet,
and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and
their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. And it
shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from
the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold
every one on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall
rise up against the hand of his neighbor. And Judah also
shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the
heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and
silver, and apparel, in great abundance. And so shall be
the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of
the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these
tents, as this plague.” (Zechariah 14:12-15)
Stay
close to the LORD Jesus in prayer, and obey what His Holy
Spirit tells you to do, because the coming days will be very
perilous. 2011 saw the most earthquakes of any single year,
and had ten different billion dollar disasters in the US
alone. Jesus told us of the increase of quakes and signs in
the sky (Matthew 24). I pray you are prepared. [end
