The verse that God gave me starting yesterday is psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” I have been meditating on this — I feel just a calm and peace! I know I should be asking God what next, my son is still over in Iraq somewhere instead of coming home, the world has gone utterly mad yet, I have a perfect peace and rolled thru the day, boy was it an upside down day too —— so many little fires to put out at work, just craziness but my spirit remains calm and peaceful like it’s time . Watchman I like that about “ look up” — it fits the feeling I sense! Soon :thankyou anybody else having that sense of calm? I've expressed that sense of calm in releasing everything to God! The knowledge that God still sit's upon His throne and rules over all things gives me a confidence that is born of faith. Truly we all desire to be taken into a different realm. A desire that was birthed in me some 50 plus years ago. Christ has been called the desire of the ages! There is no doubt that Christ will keep his promises! We now only wrestle with the "when"! We all seem to share in the notion that the Rapture is nearer than we could imagine. My prayer indeed is that we are right in this shared desire! TR. :amen: Yes as the world gets darker by the day and spirals out of control ... we don’t need to fear or worry since our Lord never slumbers or sleeps and He gave us His Word to meditate on His promises. How blessed we are to also have at our finger tips end time knowledge of prophetic events so we are not left in the dark. I’m both at peace and excited that 2020 could really be it ... our one way flight to New Jerusalem! :yahoo: Philippians 4:6-7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Been a bit quiet since the funeral of Soleimani. Didn't Ayatollah Khamenei say they were giving 72 hours of mourning in his honor... will be interesting to see if things get crazy here very soon. Less than 24 hours to go before the 3 days of mourning is over. "That same day, Khamenei declared three days of mourning across the country and vowed “harsh retaliation.”" What I find interesting is that Iran is experiencing one of the largest revivals in all the world. People are coming to Christ in such huge numbers and yet the penalty for owning a Bible there is death. But NOTHING can stop the Hand of God and His hand is moving over the civilian population there. PLEASE keep these people in your prayers regardless of what their government does. Day 7th in the New Year and we have this ... :popcorn :popcorn :popcorn Trump’s peace plan is on the way: Is Israel ready? - analysis Jerusalem Post With 10 months to the presidential election in the US, the Trump administration is considering presenting its peace plan in the coming weeks, even ahead of the March 2 Knesset election. The administration’s reasoning is clear. If there’s an Israeli election in March, there probably won’t be a government until May, bringing them very close to the presidential election. It’s not likely that US President Donald Trump will actually be able to bring about the “Deal of the Century,” as he called peace between Israel and the Palestinians, and he would want to present himself in as positive a light as possible so close to his reelection bid. In addition, he will want to focus on his campaign and not put any more challenges in his path. So while the White House held back on releasing the deal for the first two election seasons in Israel, waiting for a third to end may be too much to ask. Deputy Assistant to the President Avi Berkowitz was in Israel this week and met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White leader Benny Gantz to talk about pushing the plan. Still, Berkowitz and Trump’s Senior Advisor Jared Kushner, the plan’s top proponents, are very closely coordinated with Netanyahu and with Ambassador to the US Ron Dermer. It also seems clear that Trump would like Netanyahu to remain prime minister, going so far as to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan shortly before the first election in 2019 – even if the president has been keeping his distance lately after two losses for Netanyahu. As such, any rollout will probably be coordinated with Netanyahu for maximum benefit – or at least minimum fallout – from the pre-election timing. Of course, there is someone else in this political equation: Gantz. Sources close to the Blue and White leader said that while he is open-minded about the plan itself and is waiting to see it before he judges it, he hopes that the US will not release the plan before the election, because doing so would be counterproductive. The question of how the plan could impact the upcoming Israeli election is an interesting one – because from what is known about it, its nature appears to be unprecedented. Normally, a US-proposed peace plan requires major concessions from Israel, including evacuating tens of thousands of Israelis from the West Bank – or giving up on security arrangements that are a near-consensus in the Israeli political spectrum, like maintaining an IDF presence the Jordan Valley. But Kushner and Berkowitz are working on the principle of no daylight between Israel and the US, and the plan is likely to ask for few, if any, concessions from Israel. They are likely to agree to have Israel annex parts of the West Bank, perhaps even all of the major settlement blocs. But past experience shows that even plans that didn’t get off the ground have thrown Israel, and certainly its media, into a frenzy. The Left would probably criticize any plan that does not include a Palestinian state, and point to the rejection from Ramallah as a sign that greater concessions need to be made for true peace. Despite those criticisms on both sides, Netanyahu could use a plan with few demands on Israel to say that, due to his close relationship with the Trump White House, it has put forward the best plan Israel could ask for – in addition to US recognition of Jerusalem and the Golan, and that settlements are not illegal – and attract votes from the center and the center-right. Berkowitz spoke with Netanyahu and Gantz, and is probably aware of all of these considerations. At the end of the day, though, Trump will look out for his own interests. It’s true that a plan that is overwhelmingly pro-Israel will likely help him with his pro-Israel Evangelical voter base. But a prolonged news cycle about the plan not being taken seriously or not having a dramatic impact could hurt Trump, and he will not want the plan to detract from his reelection campaign. Which means that, despite many false starts in the past, the “Deal of the Century” looks likelier than ever to be made public soon. - Fair Use - Better sooner than later! The prophetic clock continues ticking! Time will certainly tell how relevant this plan will be. The fact that this brings the U.S.A. and Israel all the more closer is great. Truly the writing is already on the prophetic wall, and has been there for some time. All we need do is continue to watch the Lord orchestrate His plans! TR So very ready to see this "Deal of the Century" and see the ripples from its release! Ripples nothing, how about a sunami! TR :agree better sooner than later. :good: Ok I was just mulling the time bomb convergence of ... Israel pumping gas & could start shipping the fuel to Europe as early as in the next few weeks instead of pipeline completion date of 2025. ✔ We have Ali Khamenei in deep mourning that his side kick buddy Soleimani is no longer alive and is seeking revenge. ✔ We have Trump’s peace plan to be unveiled before March 2nd and could it also include “Israel’s 3rd Temple green light approval?” ✔ I know we were all disappointed that the peace plan kept getting pushed to the back burner last year but I have to admit ... seeing how things are quickly shaping up in just the past 7 days ... I’m kind of glad it was placed on hold because perhaps the announcement of Trump’s peace plan will be thee catalyst and last straw for the muslim armies to set things in motion with seeking revenge ... but God will put a stop to their evil attack plans? B-)
Be anxious for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

There’s a chance the plan would have little impact on the election in Israel, because the Palestinians have made it clear that they have rejected it sight unseen. The fact that the plan won’t have much of a real-world impact could mean that it will be seen as political spin and therefore not move the needle much towards either Netanyahu or Gantz.
If the plan does call for the establishment of a Palestinian state, for example, the parties to Netanyahu’s Right could try to use that to get more votes. Defense Minister Naftali Bennett attempted that ahead of the first election of 2019 with little success, warning that Trump will demand major concessions from Israel. Someone like Transportation Minister Bezalel Smotrich could easily argue that any plan that doesn't include Israeli sovereignty over the whole West Bank is dead on arrival. And some Likud voters, especially West Bank residents, might bolt.
Blue and White would likely be in a bind as a centrist party: not wanting to reject the plan, because Gantz will need a good relationship with the White House, but still wanting to find a way to attack Netanyahu.
