Is the clock of God about to strike midnight?

Is the clock of God about to strike midnight?

I think so. And here is the reason that I believe that way…

If you will take a few moments out of your busy life and really give some thought about what is going on in the Middle East and what is going on all over Europe, then you will realize that the mess that is happening there and the coming together of Russia, who will be a major player in the end times, and the middle east should let you see, like me, the turmoil and trouble that is coming our way.

I think the leadership we have had for the last few years should help you see that, according to God's word, it's all falling into place. We have turned our back on Israel. And don't for one minute think that we haven't, because the proof is everywhere. And you can be assured that this is not something that God will take lightly with all the blessings that he has bestowed upon this country because of our love for Israel. I believe that the leaders of Israel know this, and now it looks like they may have waited too long to do anything of any consequence against Iran and the countries that they sponsor, with Israel being told by some of our leaders to stand down and do nothing.

And another thing… if you will just look at what's happening in the Middle East, not letting our fighting men and women do their jobs of winning this thing that we call a war but some of our leaders refuse to let them do it. I'm surprised that more deaths and causalities on our side have not happened.

I try hard to understand why our leaders won’t let them win this thing and then come home, but as long as the rules of engagement are what they are where the enemy can shoot us but we can't shoot back at them — and wait a minute, now I remember all those immigrants that are heading our way. Nothing but a lot of women and kids (and maybe a 30-year-old nephew coming along just looking for a better life) so not to worry, America.

A lot of the things happening right now in Iran are sponsored by the Russians and China, with some North Korea shoved in there for good measure, and don't forget all of them have some of their own people starving in the streets, and the reason is their government needs the money to sponsor some more terrorists in other places around the world like Iran as well as many others.

Now is this not amazing, that those three as well as so many more will be deeply involved in the last battle when Jesus returns. Israel now knows that a lot of the leaders of our country are not their friend, but they also know that God is their friend and judge regardless of what our leaders say.

The whole of the European people is slowly becoming a mess because of the change in their political system as well as their population and if you do just a little end-of-times study, you will understand that the European countries bring forth several leaders in the later days led and sponsored by Satan himself, and I believe that it is being put together as we speak. If you will just stay up a little bit with what is happening around the world, then you will see that a lot of those European leaders are now on the side of the migrants and not so much for the people that are citizens of their own country.

If you think for one minute that one day not to far into the future that America won’t fight that same battle, I think you are wrong and I know some of you reading this will never accept that. But just remember this: By the time you see it, I would say then it's too late. All I can say in closing with all the turmoil that is going on in the world today my prayer for you would be that if you don't have that blood contract with the Savior then you will get it. So may God bless you and yours, and may he open your eyes to see what is right there in front of you.
