Note: I have not been posting a lot of blogs recently as the current series Dragon Flood is requiring a lot of research. I have purchased about 7 or 8 books in recent weeks, totaling thousands of pages, and I am making notes as I read. I anticipate getting more posted soon.

Alert!

The following e-mail was sent to me this morning by a brother in Christ whom I know well. Joe Boes is a brother who has frequently visited with me, and I am confident that he is one of Christ’s remnant of overcomers in this hour. I have found his thoughts and insights to be excellent, and I therefore take seriously those things he shares with me. This morning I received a note of a coming shaking from this brother. Here is what he wrote:

Dear Joseph,

I just wanted to share this with you;

As of now I am still in LA at the airport awaiting the departure of my flight back to ATL.
Last night I went to bed rather early around 8:30 being tired from traveling. I don’t know at what time last night, but at one point I was being shaken, I mean literally rolling back and forth. In my half sleep state I wondered why am I shaking back and forth. It went on until I was totally awake and then it stopped.

I went back to sleep and this morning after prayer the Holy Spirit speaking to me: the shaking is coming and it will come suddenly

I thought I would share this with you

In Christ

Joe
   
Upon receiving this word I was impressed to take care of some physical matters relating to preparation that I had been postponing for some time. My bus has a propane tank that lasts me almost an entire year before needing refilling. I use the propane only for cooking. I knew the tank was nearly empty, but have postponed for some weeks getting it filled. Although there is a business less than a mile from where I am camped that sells propane, getting there requires that I unhook my trailer, my water hoses, sewer lines, and electric, as well as rearranging many things in the bus so that things will not fall off the shelf as I drive down the road. It takes approximately half an hour to do all this, with another half hour to put things back together when I return.

Additionally, I knew that a couple of my bus’ tires were low on air. As they require 80 PSI of air pressure, I needed to go to a tire store to get them pumped up. There is one right across the street from the business that sells propane. I also wanted to top off my gas tank for my bus so that it would be full in time of need.

After reading Joe’s e-mail, I was impressed to not wait, but to do these things at once. When I thought about it, I had no peace at all when I thought of delaying further. So I packed everything up and took care of all of these things this morning.

Those who read my blog posts know that God directed me at the beginning of the summer to purchase a larger trailer to pull behind my bus and to stock it with dried grains and beans. I also purchased a grain mill and have made some other preparations for living off the grid when necessary.

Storage Buckets in Trailer
(You can see my grain mill at the front of the trailer)

I am very loathe due to past errors in this regard, to predict dates or times for events. I do not want to go beyond that revelation the Father has given to me. This I am certain of, however, it was my heavenly Father who sent me provision to make these preparations, and the types of items I have in storage will not store for extremely long periods of time. I have anticipated that within a year’s time these things need to be used, or they would begin to spoil.

It is easy to begin doubting the things we have heard and have been instructed of the Lord in, but as I continue to ponder the preparations I made several months ago I am confident that I did not err, but that it was the leading of the Holy Spirit that both guided me to these actions and made it possible for me to do them.

I am also mindful of the great parable the Father set before the eyes of the world of a coming disaster in the Costa Concordia cruise ship striking a hidden reef and foundering. If you have not read the posts on that event, I recommend them to you.

Even non-Christians saw in this event a parable of the economic collapse of the Eurozone and America. Following are two cartoons I posted relating to this event.

I was much impressed with a recent post on The Economic Collapse Blog. Following is the article in its entirety.

18 Indications That Europe Has Become An Economic Black Hole Which Is Going To Suck The Life Out Of The Global Economy

Michael Snyder
The Economic Collapse
Sept 4, 2012

Summer vacation is over and things are about to get very interesting in Europe. Most Americans don’t realize this, but much of Europe shuts down for the entire month of August.


I wish we had something similar in the United States. But now millions of Europeans are returning from their extended family vacations and the fun is about to begin. During August economic conditions continued to degenerate in Europe, but I figured that it wouldn’t be until after August that the European debt crisis would take center stage once again. And as I wrote about last week, if there is going to be a financial panic, it typically happens in the fall. The stock market has seen quite a nice rally over the summer, and many investors are nervous that we could see a significant “correction” very soon. The month of September has been the absolute worst month for stock performance over the past 50 years, and it has also been the absolute worst month for stock performance over the past 100 years as well. Of course that does not guarantee that anything is going to happen this year. But things in Europe continue to get worse. Unemployment rates are spiking, manufacturing activity is slowing down, housing prices are crashing and major financial institutions are failing. What is happening in Europe right now appears to be an even worse version of what happened to the United States back in 2008.


But most Americans aren’t too concerned about what is happening in Europe.


In fact, most Americans don’t believe that a European financial collapse would be much of a problem for us.


Well, just remember what happened back in 2008. When the U.S. financial system started coming apart at the seams it sparked a devastating worldwide recession which was felt in every corner of the globe.


If the European financial system implodes, the consequences could be even worse.


Why?


Europe has a larger population than the United States does.


Europe has a larger economy than the United States does.


Europe has a much, much larger banking system than the United States does.


If Europe experiences a financial collapse, the entire globe will feel the pain.


And considering how weak the U.S. economy already is, it would not take much to push us over the edge.


What is going on in Europe right now is a very, very big deal and people need to pay attention.


The following are 18 indications that Europe has become an economic black hole which is going to suck the life out of the global economy….


#1 The unemployment rate in France is up to 10 percent, and the French media is buzzing about the fact that the number of unemployed French workers has now hit the 3 million mark.


#2 The French government has just announced the nationalization of its second largest mortgage lender. Additional bailouts are likely on the way.


#3 French automaker PSA Peugeot Citroen has announced that it will be cutting more than 10,000 jobs. But of course major layoff announcements like this are coming out of Europe almost every day now.


#4 Home prices in France are falling rapidly and the recent election of a socialist president has created a bit of a panic in the French housing market….


 British people with homes in France were today warned that the property market is in ‘free fall’.


 A combination of factors including the election of a tax-and-spend Socialist government means that prices are tumbling.


 It means an end to the boom years, when thousands of Britons poured money into rental or retirement investments across the Channel.


#5 A slow-motion bank run is happening in Spain. The amount of money being pulled out of the Spanish banking system is absolutely unprecedented. The following is from a recent Zero Hedge article….


 The central bank of Spain just released the net capital outflow numbers and they are disastrous. During the month of June alone $70.90 billion left the Spanish banks and in July it was worse at $92.88 billion which is 4.7% of total bank deposits in Spain. For the first seven months of the year the outflow adds up to $368.80 billion or 17.7% of the total bank deposits of Spain and the trajectory of the outflow is increasing dramatically. Reality is reality and Spain is experiencing a full-fledged run on its banks whether anyone in Europe wants to admit it or not.


If this pace keeps up, more than 600 billion dollars will be pulled out of Spanish banks by the end of the year.


Keep in mind that the GDP of Spain for all of 2011 was just 1.49 trillion dollars.


So by the end of this year we could see the equivalent of more than 40 percent of Spanish GDP pulled out of Spanish banks and sent out of the country.


In case you were wondering, yes, that is a nightmare scenario.


#6 The unemployment rate in Spain is over 25 percent. The youth unemployment rate in Spain is well over 50 percent. Spain is a tinderbox that could be set ablaze at any moment.


#7 The yield on 10 year Spanish bonds is up to 6.85 percent. This is an unsustainable level, and if rates don’t come down on Spanish debt soon it is inevitable that Spain will end up just like Greece.


#8 On Monday it was announced that Spanish banking giant Bankia will be getting an emergency “cash injection” of between 4 and 5 billion euros. Apparently “cash injection” sounds better to the politicians than “a bailout” does.


#9 The housing crash in Spain just continues to get worse. It is being reported that some homes in Spain are being sold at a 70% discount from where they were at the peak of the market back in 2006. At this point there areapproximately 2 million unsold homes in Spain.


#10 There are persistent rumors that the government of Spain will soon be forced to officially ask for a bailout from the rest of Europe. But who is going to bail them out? Most of the other governments of the eurozone are on the verge of bankruptcy themselves.


#11 Manufacturing activity in Europe has contracted for 13 months in a row. The following is from a recent Reuters report….


 The downturn that began in the smaller periphery members of the 17-nation bloc is now sweeping through Germany and France and the situation remained dire in the region’s third and fourth biggest economies of Italy and Spain.


 “Larger nations like France and Germany remain in reverse gear… the (manufacturing) sector is on course to act as a drag on gross domestic product in the third quarter,” said Rob Dobson, senior economist at data collator Markit.


 Markit’s final Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for the manufacturing sector fell from an earlier flash reading of 45.3 to 45.1, above July’s three-year low of 44.0, but notching its 13th month below the 50 mark separating growth from contraction.


#12 Chinese exports to the EU declined by 16.2 percent in July. U.S. exports to Europe have been steadily falling as well.


#13 Slovenia and Cyprus are two other eurozone members that are in desperate need of bailout money. The dominoes just keep falling and nobody seems to be able to come up with a plan to “fix” Europe.


#14 Even the “strong” economies in Europe are being dragged down now. For example, unemployment in Germany has risen for five months in a row.


#15 According to one recent poll, only about one-fourth of all Germans want Greece to remain a part of the eurozone. The odds of a breakup of the euro seem to rise with each passing day.


#16 It is now estimated that bad loans make up approximately 20 percent of all domestic loans in the Greek banking system at this point.


#17 The suicide rate in Greece is more than 30 percent higher than it was last year. People are becoming very desperate in Greece and there is no end in sight to the economic depression that they are going through.


#18 Large U.S. companies have been rapidly getting prepared for a Greek exit from the eurozone. The following is from a recent New York Times article….


 Even as Greece desperately tries to avoid defaulting on its debt, American companies are preparing for what was once unthinkable: that Greece could soon be forced to leave the euro zone.


 Bank of America Merrill Lynch has looked into filling trucks with cash and sending them over the Greek border so clients can continue to pay local employees and suppliers in the event money is unavailable. Ford has configured its computer systems so they will be able to immediately handle a new Greek currency.


Every time European leaders get together they declare that they have “a plan” that will solve the problems that Europe is experiencing, but as we have seen things in Europe just continue to get worse with no end in sight.


A key date is coming up in the middle of this month. On September 12th, Germany’s Constitutional Court will determine the fate of the recent fiscal pact and the ESM. According to UniCredit global chief economist Erik Nielsen, if the court rules against the fiscal pact and the ESM the fallout will be catastrophic….


 “If they were to surprise us by striking down Germany’s participation, I would think it’d be an utter bloodbath in markets”


But that is not the only thing that could set off a full-blown panic in the financial markets.


The truth is that Europe is teetering on the edge.


One wrong move and it is going to be 1929 all over again.


As I have maintained all along, the next wave of the economic collapse is rapidly approaching, and this time the epicenter for the crisis is going to be in Europe.


But that does not mean that things are going to be easier for the United States than last time. We have never even come close to recovering from the last recession. Most Americans families are just barely getting by. In fact, 77 percent of them are living paycheck to paycheck at least part of the time.


Right now there are millions of Americans that have lost their jobs and their homes in recent years and that feelforsaken by society.


After this next wave hits us there will be tens of millions of Americans feeling the pain of economic desperation.


The last wave of the economic collapse hurt us.


This next wave is going to absolutely devastate us.


Watch what is happening in Europe very carefully. What Greece, Spain, Italy and France are experiencing right now is going to hit us soon enough.

People of God, the prudent will take note of what is occurring in the world around them and be sensitive to the voice of the Spirit of Christ. I have received no word of a specific event or date to watch. What I am doing is seeking to listen carefully to the voice of the Spirit and do those things He directs me to do. Without a doubt there are days of great dislocation and distress ahead for the nations.

I would encourage you as well to be alert. Don’t be lulled to sleep by the monotonous drone of the media for it will not tell you what is coming. The media is under the control of Satan, the great deceiver who deceives the nations. Let us heed the words of Yahshua the Messiah.

Luke 21:34-36
“Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap; for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth. But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

A final word of note, the winning word at the Scripps National Spelling Bee this year was “guetapens.” This word means ambush, snare, trap “a trick to lure him into some guetapens.” (Source: Merriam Webster Dictionary Online)

May you be blessed with peace and understanding in these days.

    Dear Joseph,
    I am glad to see you are puting a holt on the writing and posted your friends warning. As you have said before and as many saints now are proclaiming 'the hour is late' if not over for warning.

    After seeking FATHER yesterday, I laid down to rest. HE gave me a strange dream. In it I am on facebook (which I dont have fb)looking at a video of my nephew playing in a high school band. They are playing Light My Fire by the Doors. It sounded very good. When I woke I asked FATHER, "why this dream, why this song?" HE said,"This generation is 'fine tuned' in sin from all the past generations that practiced sin. This is why I must light MY fire!"

    My heart has been very heavy today. I am almost 100% confident that the time of warnings is over.

    Peace,
    Deirdre
