Famine is Coming-Are You Getting Ready?

Joseph F. Dumond

Isa 6:9-12 And He said, Go, and tell this people, You hear indeed, but do not understand; and seeing you see, but do not know. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn back, and be healed. Then I said, Lord, how long? And He answered, Until the cities are wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land laid waste, a desolation, and until Jehovah has moved men far away, and the desolation in the midst of the land is great.

Shabbat Shalom Royal Family of Yehovah,


The Third Tithe Year

Are you Keeping the Third Tithe Year?

We are now about to begin the 3rd month.  I want to remind and ask you all, just how many of you have remembered the widows and the orphans this year thus far? And I will keep reminding you about this responsibility for the entirety of this year.

2022 is the 6th year of the Jubilee cycle. And anyone who has been reading our website for any time will know how to prove beyond all doubt when the Sabbatical and Jubilee years are. Once you have done that then you will know when the 3rd and the 6th year of the Sabbatical Cycles are.

Deu 14:28  At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your increase the same year, and shall lay it up inside your gates. And the Levite, because he has no part nor inheritance with you, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are inside your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied, so that Jehovah your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

It is almost a guarantee that some smart as_ or should I say some clever person who does not want to obey Yehovah will write to me and say this is only speaking of the produce of the land. You are only to tithe of the produce that you grow. Since I am not a farmer I do not have to tithe.

So what they are saying is that only the farmers have to tithe, is that right?

Not one of these people has ever sent me ten bales of hay for every hundred they bailed. Nor have I ever received five bushels of tomatoes for the fifty they harvested. In fact, they never send me a tithe of their produce. They just send me their excuses for why they will not obey.

Let me say here right now, I have never considered myself or this ministry to be a Levitical priesthood. I have never considered it worthy of tithing to. Only the Levite is be given the tithes and they are given that tithe in order for them to maintain the Temple. We have no Temple today and we have no priesthood so you should not be tithing. But at sightedmoon.com we have expenses and goals and other ministries we are supporting in the Philippines and Africa and maybe soon India and Pakistan. So we do accept your donations to help do the work we are doing here. Recently we changed our position and said we are a legitimate source to tithe to as we are teaching you the Torah so that you can learn the laws of the Kingdom.

I also remember one year I brought my First Fruits offering to a local synagogue and presented it in front of the congregation. It was rhubarb and Asparagus. This was the only First Fruits I had at that time when Pentecost arrived that year. Everyone watching was wondering what was going on and the Rabbi also did not know what to think. But I presented my First Fruits offering as I was commanded.

What does this word “increase” mean?

As you can see from the scriptures below the same word Tebuah can and does also mean revenue.

Proverbs 15:6  In the house of the righteous is much treasure; But in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.

Proverbs 16:8 Better is a little, with righteousness, Than great revenues with injustice.

Jer 12:13 (Darby)  They have sown wheat, and they reap thorns; they have put themselves to pain, and do not profit. Be ye therefore ashamed of your revenues, because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.

Proverb 8:19

(ASV)  My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; And my revenue than choice silver.

(BBE)  My fruit is better than gold, even than the best gold; and my increase is more to be desired than silver.

(Brenton)  It is better to have my fruit than to have gold and precious stones; and my produce is better than choice silver.

(CEV)  What you receive from me is more valuable than even the finest gold or the purest silver.

(Darby)  My fruit is better than fine gold, yea, than pure gold; and my revenue than choice silver.

(DRB)  For my fruit is better than gold and the precious stone, and my blossoms than choice silver.

(ERV)  What I give is better than fine gold. What I produce is better than pure silver.

(ESV)  My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold, and my yield than choice silver.

(ESV+)  My fruit is ?R16?better than ?R17?gold, even fine gold, and my yield than ?R18?choice silver.

(GNB)  What you get from me is better than the finest gold, better than the purest silver.

(Greek NT INT+)

(GW)  What I produce is better than gold, pure gold. What I yield is better than fine silver.

On my E-sword program, I am able to now pull up the Ancient Paleo Hebrew and for this word Tebuah which is as follows.

H7620   (Ancient Hebrew)
H7620 = AHLB# 2808 (d)
2808) Obs% (Obs% ShBAh) ac: Swear co: Oath ab: ?: Literally to seven oneself. A common practice was to make seven declarations when making an oath. This declaration can be making the oath seven times or doing seven things to show the sincerity of the oath. (eng: seven, an exchange of the s and sh)

H8393   (Ancient Hebrew)
H8393 = AHLB# 1024-J (i1)
1024) ab (ab BA) ac: Fill co: Void ab: ?: The filling of an empty space. This root is closely related to eb and ib.

A) ab (ab BA) ac: Enter co: Entrance ab: ?: To fill a space by entering it.

I want you to notice that in the Beit which is the house it is the Aleph of Yehovah that fills that empty space.

Nf1) Eab% (Eab% B-AH) – Entrance: [freq. 1] |kjv: entry| {H872}

J) Afb% (Afb% BWA) ac: Fill co: Entrance ab: ?: To come or go into a space is to fill it. A void within oneself that desires to be filled.

V) Afb% (Afb% BWA) – Come: To fill a void by entering it. This can be understood as to come or to go. [A generic verb with a wide application meaning to come or go as a filling of a void] [freq. 2577] (vf: Paal, Hiphil, Hophal) |kjv: come, enter, go| {H935}

am) Afbm% (Afbm% M-BWA) – I. Entrance: A place of entering. II. West: The place where the sun enters the underworld. [df: awbwm] [freq. 24] |kjv: going down, entry, come, entrance, enter, in, west| {H3996}

if1) Eafbt% (Eafbt% T-BW-AH) – Filling: An increase of produce, usually of fruit. [freq. 42] |kjv: increase, fruit, revenue, gain| {H8393}

With this understanding, we should easily be able to understand that it is Yehovah who fills our empty space with HIs presence and His increase.

kf1) Eafbm% (Eafbm% M-BW-AH) – Entrance: A place of entering. [freq. 1] |kjv: entry| {H3997}

We are addressing those who claim that fruits only mean crops and does not mean income. If you made $50,000 last year in wages then a tithe of that would be $5,000 that would not be able to be deducted as a taxable write-off. There are no receipts when you give to the widows or the orphans or the stranger or the poor of the Levite. There is the simple satisfaction that you have kept the Torah of Yehovah and in doing your little bit you have helped the overall function of the Kingdom.

“the overall function of the Kingdom” how is my little part a blessing for the Kingdom. Read what you are told in Deut 26 when you do this one commandment. It says not that you will be blessed for doing your tithe but the Kingdom will be, the Nation of Israel. “Look down from Your holy dwelling, from Heaven, and bless Your people Israel and the land which You have given us, as You swore to our fathers, a land that flows with milk and honey. ”

Deu 26:11  And you shall rejoice in all the good which Jehovah your God has given to you, and to your house; you, and the Levite, and the stranger in your midst. When you have made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, the year of tithing, and have given it to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow (that they may eat inside your gates and be filled), then you shall say before Jehovah your God, I have brought away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all Your commandments which You have commanded me. I have not broken Your commandments, neither have I forgotten. I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put any of it away for unclean use, nor have I given of it for the dead. I have listened to the voice of Jehovah my God, and have done according to all that You have commanded me. Look down from Your holy dwelling, from Heaven, and bless Your people Israel and the land which You have given us, as You swore to our fathers, a land that flows with milk and honey. Today Jehovah your God has commanded you to do these statutes and judgments. You therefore shall keep and do them with all your heart and with all your soul. You have today said that Jehovah is your God, and that you would walk in His ways, and keep His statutes and His commandments and His judgments, and listen to His voice. And Jehovah has taken you today to be His peculiar people, as He has promised you, and to keep all His commandments, and to make you high above all nations which He has made, in praise and in name and in honor, and that you may be a holy people to Jehovah your God, even as He has spoken.

Here is a very severe warning from Yehovah to each of us.

Exo 22:21  You shall neither vex a stranger nor oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. You shall not afflict any widow or fatherless child. If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all to Me, I will surely hear their cry. And My wrath shall become hot, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall be widows, and your sons fatherless.

We have already sent out our first batch of gifts that you sent in for the widows. We will soon be making another gift to them. If you do not know of anyone in the faith who is a widow or orphan then you can send it to us. Make sure you write me to let me know that those funds are for the widows and I will see to it they get it. But if you do not write me then I will not know where to apply your donation.


Shabbat Zoom Meeting

There are many people in need of fellowship and who are sitting at home on the Sabbath with no one to talk to or debate with. I want to encourage all of you to join us on Shabbat, and to invite others to come and join us as well. If the time is not convenient then you can listen to the teaching and the midrash after on our YouTube channel.

What are we doing and why do we teach this way?

We are going to discuss both sides of an issue and then let you choose. It is the work of the Ruach (Spirit) to direct and to teach you.

The medieval commentator Rashi wrote that the Hebrew word for wrestle (avek) implies that Jacob was “tied”, for the same word is used to describe knotted fringes in a Jewish prayer shawl, the tzitzityot. Rashi says, “thus is the manner of two people who struggle to overthrow each other, that one embraces the other and knots him with his arms”.

Our intellectual wrestling has been replaced by a different kind of struggle. We are Wrestling with Yehovah as we grapple with His Word. It is an intimate act, symbolizing a relationship in which Yehovah and I and you are bound together. My wrestling is a struggle to discover what Yehovah expects of us, and we are “tied” to the One who assists us in that struggle.

Today, many say Israel means “Champion of God”, or better — the “Wrestler of God”.

Our Torah sessions each Shabbat teach you and encourage you to constantly challenge, question, argue against, as well as view alternative views and explanations of the Word. In other words, we are to “wrestle with the Word” to get to the truth. Jews worldwide believe that you need to wrestle with the Word and constantly challenge Dogma, Theology, and views or else you will never get to the Truth.

We are not like most churches where “The preacher talks and everyone listens.” We encourage everyone to participate, to question and to contribute what they know on the subject being discussed. We want you to be a champion wrestler of the Word of Yehovah. We want you to wear the title of Israel, knowing that you not only know but are capable to explain why you know the Torah to be true with logic and facts.

We have a few rules though. Let others talk and listen. There is no discussion about UFO’s Nephilim, Vaccines or conspiracy-type subjects. We have people from around the world with different world views. Not everyone cares who is the President of any particular country. Treat each other with respect as Fellow wrestlers of the word. Some of our subjects are hard to understand and require you to be mature and if you do not know, then listen to gain knowledge and understanding and hopefully wisdom. The very things you are commanded to ask Yehovah for and He gives to those who ask.

Jas 1:5  But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

We hope you can invite those who want to keep Torah to come and join us by hitting the link below. It is almost like a Torah teaching fellowship talk show with people from around the world taking part and sharing their insights and understandings.

We start off with some music and then some prayers and it’s as though you were sitting around the kitchen back in Newfoundland having a cup of coffee and all of us enjoying each other’s company. I hope you will grace us with your company someday.

Sabbath services begin April 30 at 12:30 PM EDT we will be doing prayers songs and teaching from this hour.

Shabbat Services will begin at 1:15 pm Eastern.

We look forward to you joining our family and getting to know us as we get to know you.

Joseph Dumond is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Septennial Torah Portion

Jeremiah 10-12

Proverbs 11

Acts 8

If you missed last week’s exciting discoveries as we studied that section you can go and watch past Shabbats on our media section.

New Moon of the 3rd Month

This Sunday, May 1st, 2022, will be the potential sighting of the moon to begin the 3rd month. Torah Calendar shows that the moon will not be sighted on Sunday evening, making Monday evening and Tuesday, May 3rd the 1st day of the 3rd month. But we will wait and see if anyone sees the moon from Israel.

We also have an informal gathering on New Moon day in our zoom room. You can stop by and say hello for a few moments. Nothing is really organized at this time. But we are marking the 1st new moon each month.

I fully understand how confusing it can get using the Gregorian Calendar and the Crescent Moon Calendar. And then we have this split where half or more are one month behind and then I bring up Torah Calendar and they too are a month behind as they go by the Equinox. And I have not even mentioned the Hillel calendar.  I get it.

At sightedmoon.com you can download and print off what we call the Perpetual calendar. There are 12 months and you just fill in the date when the New Moon was seen and the year and you can keep count of time and know where we are in the counting of the Omer and when the Fall Holy Days are approximate.

Here is the 1st and second month which I have filled in and use.

We also just got this report from Becca, that the wheat is ready for harvesting. Those who kept Passover in April, this Sabbath is your day 7 of the Counting of the Omer. Will you have your First Fruits of wheat 42 days from now? No, because the FIRSTFRUITS are ready NOW. You will have no wheat left in 42 days.
It is time to repent and change your calendar status and come in line with Yehovahs timing as now shown to you by His two Witnesses. The Barley and the Wheat.


Introducing

I am greatly honoured to be able to see new people teaching and reaching out to share what they are doing. I would very much like you to watch and then to encourage this next young person to continue to share and teach from the Bible so other young people will get involved and do likewise.

There is going to be so much demand for their talents in the next number of years as we go from the end of the 6th Millennium to the start of the 7th under King David and Yehovah’s rulership.

This really was very good and I tip my hat to Isaac Espinosa who spent so much time training live animals in this video production. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qiUtCFH5LU


Remembering the Sabbatical Year of 2023-2024

We have now reopened a facebook page with the purpose of being to talk about the Sabbatical Year and how you can keep it. We now have people who have kept it before once or twice and have the experience to help answer any questions you may have. Please join our group on facebook at this link.


Famine and Earthquakes

In our Book The 2300 Days of Hell, we warned you that famines, plagues and swords or war were coming and that they would begin in 2020. We have been saying it since 2005. Our book was published in 2014 and was written in our weekly Newsletters before that. We explained how you could understand these prophecies in The Prophecies of Abraham which we wrote in 2010 and then had to explain in detail in our 2nd book Remembering the Sabbatical year of 2016 in which we showed you the plagues of Lev 26 and how they coincided with each Sabbatical Cycle of this the final 120th Jubilee Cycle.

You need to tell everyone you know that they need to read this and learn these things if they want to understand how Yehovah is working out these end-time prophecies.


You can order each of these books in our store at sightedmoon.com. You can also get them in audio and listen to them while you walk or while you drive in your car.

With that background and information which we have been sharing with you since 2005, now read what is happening in the news in recent weeks.

There are stories being reported by sources about food processing plants being destroyed over the past 5 months across North America.

All of this comes at the same time as 30% of the world’s wheat is taken off the market because of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. We reported what the UN was saying about how many were soon going to be in a famine mood which is beyond Starvation mood. They will have to choose who is going to eat and who is going to die because they will not have enough to feed all those who are food insecure around the world now.

This same invasion has also caused the prices of oil to skyrocket increasing the supply chain cost for shipping other foods to the stores where we buy them from. According to the USDA, the cost of food year over year as of February is up 7.9%. This was up over the same period for 2021 and 2020.

And now interest rates are about to shoot up on top of all of this. Do you take out a loan to buy a tank of gas, or pay the rent or mortgage which is going up or do you feed your family with what is left over?

Then we have COVID which is still causing havoc at shipping ports around the world. China’s Shanghai is on lockdown due to COVID again which is messing with world markets.

Authorities in Shanghai have said they will tighten the enforcement of lockdown measures, as a Covid surge continues in China’s financial capital.
New measures include placing electronic door alarms to prevent those infected from leaving, as well as evacuating people to disinfect their homes.
Earlier this week, hundreds were forcibly evacuated from their homes to allow for buildings to be disinfected.
The restrictions will take Shanghai’s lockdown into its fifth week.
Shanghai city officials said all infected patients and close contacts will be transferred to government-run centralized quarantine.
In addition, disinfection measures will be escalated in some of the city’s worst-hit areas. This will likely mean some residents will be forced to move out temporarily – including those who have tested negative.

I am sharing the following report because of the history of this particular volcano. It has produced some of the worst explosions in history. It caused world temperatures to drop by almost one degree that year in 1883 and is now erupting again.

But I do mention it in light of where we are in these last days.

Mat 24:6  And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for all these things must occur; but the end is not yet.

Mat 24:7  For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.

Mat 24:8  All these are the beginning of sorrows.

A volcano in Indonesia’s Mount Anak Krakatoa, which means Child of Krakatoa, erupted on Sunday, spewing a towering volcanic ash cloud some 3,000 meters (9,800 feet) into the sky.

The volcano belched thick ash over the strait that separates the islands of Java and Sumatra, forcing authorities to warn nearby residents to wear masks outside.

“We are still recording continuous eruptions with thick clouds towering at between 500 to 3,000 meters from the peak,” Deny Mardiono of Indonesia’s Geological Agency told Agence France-Presse (AFP).

Anak Krakatoa has erupted at least 21 times in recent weeks but Sunday’s eruption was the largest yet, Mardiono said.

Authorities ordered people to stay out of a two-kilometer exclusion zone around the volcano, which is currently graded at level two of Indonesia’s four-tiered volcanic alert system.

 

“People, including tourists, should adhere to the recommendation from the Geological Agency, which prohibits anyone to be within a two-kilometer radius from the crater,” he added.

The volcano has been sporadically active since it emerged from the sea at the beginning of last century in the caldera formed after the 1883 eruption of Mount Krakatoa.

That disaster was one of the deadliest and most destructive in history with an estimated 35,000 people killed.

Anak Krakatoa last erupted in 2018, generating a tsunami that killed 429 people and left thousands homeless.

Indonesia, a Southeast Asian archipelago nation, sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire where the meeting of continental plates causes high volcanic and seismic activity.

The most notable eruptions of Krakatoa culminated in a series of massive explosions over 26–27 August 1883, which were among the most violent volcanic events in recorded history.

With an estimated Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 6,[2] the eruption was equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT (840 PJ)—about 13,000 times the nuclear yield of the Little Boy bomb (13 to 16 kt) that devastated Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II, and four times the yield of Tsar Bomba, the most powerful nuclear device ever detonated at 50 Mt.

The 1883 eruption ejected approximately 25 km3 (6 cubic miles) of rock.[3] The cataclysmic explosion was heard 3,600 km (2,200 mi) away in Alice Springs, Australia, and on the island of Rodrigues near Mauritius, 4,780 km (2,970 mi) to the west.[4]

According to the official records of the Dutch East Indies colony, 165 villages and towns were destroyed near Krakatoa, and 132 were seriously damaged. At least 36,417 people died, and many more thousands were injured, mostly from the tsunamis that followed the explosion. The eruption destroyed two-thirds of the island of Krakatoa.

Eruptions in the area since 1927 have built a new island at the same location, named Anak Krakatau (which is Indonesian for “Child of Krakatoa”). Periodic eruptions have continued since, with recent eruptions in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012, and a major collapse in 2018. In late 2011, this island had a radius of roughly 2 kilometres (1.2 mi), and a highest point of about 324 metres (1,063 ft) above sea level,[5] growing five metres (16 ft) each year.[1] In 2017, the height of Anak Krakatau was reported as over 400 m (1,300 ft) above sea level;[6] following a collapse in December 2018, the height was reduced to 110 meters (361 ft).[7][5]

While seismic activity around the volcano was intense in the years preceding the cataclysmic 1883 eruption, a series of lesser eruptions began on 20 May 1883. The volcano released huge plumes of steam and ash lasting until late August.[27]

On 27 August, a series of four huge explosions almost destroyed the island. The explosions were so violent that they were heard 3,110 km (1,930 mi) away in Perth, Western Australia, and the island of Rodrigues near Mauritius, 4,800 km (3,000 mi) away.[4] The pressure wave from the third and most violent explosion was recorded on barographs around the world.[28] Several barographs recorded the wave seven times over the course of five days: four times with the wave travelling away from the volcano to its antipodal point, and three times travelling back to the volcano;[26]: 63  the wave rounded the globe three and a half times. Ash was propelled to a height of 80 km (260,000 ft). The sound of the eruption was so loud it was reported that if anyone was within 16 kilometres (10 mi), they would have gone deaf.

The combined effects of pyroclastic flows, volcanic ashes, and tsunamis had disastrous results in the region and worldwide. The death toll recorded by the Dutch authorities was 36,417, although some sources put the estimate at more than 120,000. There are numerous documented reports of groups of human skeletons floating across the Indian Ocean on rafts of volcanic pumice and washing up on the east coast of Africa up to a year after the eruption. Summer temperatures in the northern hemisphere fell by an average of 0.4 °C (0.72 °F) in the year following the eruption.[29]

The White House is worried about the coming famine that the war in Ukraine is going to cause.

The Biden administration is worried Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will cause famine in parts of the world, White House Council of Economic Advisers Chair Cecilia Rouse told CNBC on Friday.

In an interview on “Closing Bell,” Rouse noted that Russia and Ukraine serve as “the bread basket” for many parts of the world, as the two countries are major producers of wheat, soybeans and other agricultural commodities.

However, the war is complicating efforts to plant and export these key crops. Higher energy and fertilizer prices compound the problem.

“This is a big concern,” Rouse told CNBC. “We’re working with our international aid agencies to ensure there’s some humanitarian aid because we are concerned, particularly in the Middle East, parts of Africa and the Far East … about famines and shortages in those parts of the world.”


 

Russia Turns Off the Tap

On Wednesday, April 27, 2022, the War in Ukraine produced another result that you all must be aware of. Russia shut off the gas they ship to Poland and Hungary demanding that they be paid in Rubles and not US Dollars. Futures on gas prices surged 24% at the open on Wednesday. Some of Europe’s biggest users of Russian gas are now paying in Euros so as not to break sanctions against Russia.

So what some of you are saying.

We have been warning about food and famine in this 4th sabbatical cycle again since 2005. Are you paying attention to what Yehovah is doing? It is time to obey His commandments now. Prepare for the shmitah year which starts at Aviv 2023.

That is one thing. Here is another.

We have been telling you about the coming famine. Look what this war, this gas which is now weaponized is going to affect you. Read this next article and understand what is going on.

Natural gas is used as a feedstock for nitrogen fertilizers, usually accounting for around 80% of a manufacturer’s costs.
Virtually every major crop in the world depends on inputs like nitrogen, and without a steady stream, farmers will have a harder time growing everything from coffee to rice and soybeans. Shortfalls across the fertilizer industry have sent food prices surging, with a United Nations index already up 20% this year to a record high.

Starting in 2020, you had COVID attack the entire world. Over 6.2 million died and over 509 million were infected and another new wave is expected this coming fall.

The world changed in 2020. It has not recovered.

Now famine is growing and stalking new populations through the cutting off of 30% of the world’s wheat supply. Prices going up are also cutting people off who can’t afford the increasing prices of food. The cost of living is rising quickly and those on fixed incomes are in danger.

Now the fertilizers used for food production are beyond the price farmers can use for their crops so they are not using them.

All we need now are crop failures.

Deu 28:58 If you will not observe to do all the words of this Law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH YOUR GOD,

Deu 28:59 then Jehovah will make your plagues remarkable, and the plagues of your seed great and persistent plagues; with evil and long-lasting sicknesses.

Deu 28:60 Also, He will bring on you all the diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid. And they shall cling to you.

Deu 28:61 Also, every sickness and every plague which is not written in the book of this Law, Jehovah will bring them on you until you are destroyed.

Deu 28:62 And you shall be left few in number, whereas you were as the stars of the heavens for multitude, because you would not obey the voice of Jehovah your God.

Deu 28:63 And it shall be, as Jehovah rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so Jehovah will rejoice over you to destroy you and to bring you to nothing. And you shall be plucked from off the land where you go to possess it.

Deu 28:64 And Jehovah shall scatter you among all people, from the one end of the earth even to the other, and you shall serve other gods there, which neither you nor your fathers have known, wood and stone.

Deu 28:65 And among these nations you shall find no ease, neither shall the sole of your foot have rest. But Jehovah shall give you there a trembling heart and failing of eyes and sorrow of mind.

Deu 28:66 And your life shall hang in doubt before you, and you shall fear day and night, and shall have no assurance of your life.

Deu 28:67 In the morning you shall say, Oh that it were evening! And at evening you shall say, Oh that it were morning, for the fear of your heart with which you shall fear, and for the sight of your eyes which you shall see.

Deu 28:68 And Jehovah shall bring you into Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I said to you, You shall see it no more again. And there you shall be sold to your enemies for men-slaves and women-slaves, and no man shall buy you.</

Then we also have Turkey making threats about taking over Greecian Islands.</

On Tuesday Germany stepped up and began to send anti-aircraft equipment and tanks to Ukraine. As well Britain is becoming more involved in the conflict.</

<

On Thursday the USA sought billions to help Ukraine.

WASHINGTON, April 28 (Reuters) – President Joe Biden asked Congress for $33 billion to support Ukraine – a dramatic escalation of U.S. funding for the war with Russia – and the Ukrainian president pleaded with lawmakers to give the request a swift approval.

The funding request includes over $20 billion for weapons, ammunition and other military assistance, as well as $8.5 billion in direct economic assistance to the Ukrainian government and $3 billion in humanitarian aid. It is intended to cover the war effort’s needs through September, the end of the fiscal year.

With Russia threatening Nuclear attacks on the table, and the West escalating to help Ukraine this is growing into something that looks like the lead-up to WW III.

I would also now like to share with you what Brother Cyrus has put out in his last Newsletter on March 9,  2022.

 


 

Is this Armageddon? No! Not even Close! SO DON”T WORRY!!!

Posted on

First, let me start by say a great big “Thank You” to Abraham in Colorado. Why? Because I was tired of the forecasting of negative cycles and I felt like “Dr. Doom”. I was ready to quit. Then, Abraham wrote to me about how to forecast cycles and for the first time in a few months I looked at the cycles that will take place in 2022 and I thought, “OMY”, which means “Oh My YHVH”. Abraham, please note that I have not had time to do my calculations for any cycle and I will explain why later.

WHAT DID I SEE THAT CHANGED MY MIND?

What I saw was so obvious that I should have been ashamed of my self. My dad would have said, “Son, you need to tuck your tail between your legs and shut up.” I would have said, “Yes sir.” I want to refer you to the interview with Brother Joseph Dumond and Brother Mark Webb about what was coming. We last met about 6 months ago and each time have a wonderful time in our fellowship. Here is the link to our last get together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BJ9Yv6Ibno

In the last interview I highlighted the fact that the Spring cycle of 2021 was a top down solar eclipse and the Fall cycle was a bottom up solar eclipse. The cycle that we just entered on March 4th is also a bottom up solar eclipse and the Fall cycle will be a top down solar eclipse. This is a very odd pattern and just the opposite of what happened last year. The current cycle will run from March 4 and extend into summer around June 29th.

What to expect:

I anticipate that the current situation with Russia and Ukraine, unless someone gets totally crazy, will be resolved by the end of March. But do not concentrate on the war because, once again, unless someone goes totally nuts, it will remain a regional conflict. This cycle, I believe is an economic cycle that will kick in to high gear in April and May. If you are not prepared to ride out 6 months to a year of food shortages I would get prepared now!

Here’s the Bad News:

With just a cursory glance at the Fall cycle I see the possibility of a major event or conflict initiating or taking place in Central Asia. This could be a major war much worse than Ukraine-Russia, disaster of major proportions, possibly another epidemic worse than COVID. Like I have already stated, I have not had time to do my calculations but just the visual appearance of these 2 cycles looks ominous.

I cannot urge you strongly enough to stock up on food for the coming Sabbatical year as you are commanded to do so. And to have more than needed to go into the years after that. If you plan on growing food, what will you do if your gardens fail? Stock up and make sure you have food supplies in reserve.

Lev 25:20  And if you shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow nor gather in our increase!

Lev 25:21  Then I will command My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

Lev 25:22  And you shall sow the eighth year, and eat of old fruit until the ninth year; until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old fruit.

It is exactly the same as the weekly Sabbath. Look at the example of when they collected manna.

Exo 16:4  Then Jehovah said to Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from the heavens for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain amount every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in My Law or not.

Exo 16:5  And on the sixth day it shall happen, they shall prepare what they bring in. And it shall be twice as much as they gather day by day.

Like the weekly Sabbath, the Sabbatical year is also a test. Will you pass it or fail. Do you care? Are you even trying? Or will you throw your hands in the air and give up before you even start? It is a test. What are you going to do?


In the Book of Daniel you are told how the Beast Government is going to have troubles and from whom. We are now watching for and waiting for the King of the South, Iran to butt against the EU. At the same time, we are seeing relations with China deteriorate over the trouble the EU is having with the King of the North, Russia.

EU-China Relations: “Downward Spiral”

by Soeren Kern  •  April 29, 2022 at 5:00 am

  • “For us Ukraine is the defining moment on whether we live in a world governed by rules or by force. We condemn Russian aggression against Ukraine and support this country’s sovereignty, democracy, not because we follow the US blindly, as sometimes China’s suggests, but because it is our position. This was an important message for the Chinese leadership to hear.” — EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell.
  • “We underlined that the Russian invasion of Ukraine is not only a defining moment for our continent, but also for our relationship with the rest of the world. There must be respect for international law, as well as for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.” — President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen.
  • “At the EU-China summit last Friday, the differences between Brussels and Beijing were palpable. The summit had no deliverables, no joint statement, and no joint press conference. Beijing would not clarify that it would not circumvent sanctions imposed on Russia over Ukraine. The distance between the EU and China seems to be increasing, with no turnaround in sight.” — Theresa Fallon, Director, Center for Russia Europe Asia Studies.
  • “What we’re observing now is an ongoing process by China and Russia to attempt to demolish the economic, security and normative order in Europe and beyond. This leads to the conclusion that China is neither a partner nor an economic competitor.” — Justyna Szczudlik, China analyst, Polish Institute of International Affairs.
  • “China does not want Brussels to coordinate its China strategy with Washington. But in its constant repetition of this theme, Beijing misses the point: Europe has its own concerns about China, independently of the United States… If Beijing continues to back Russia, the EU’s most direct security threat, how deep can the China-EU partnership really be?” — Shannon Tiezzi, Editor-in-Chief, The Diplomat.
  • “Mr. Putin is trying to redraw Europe’s borders by force, and Mr. Xi will not condemn him…. Mr. Putin has shown Europe that it needs a new China policy.” — The Economist.

The Watchman

Ezekiel Is Israel’s Watchman

Eze 33:1  And the Word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

Eze 33:2  Son of man, speak to the sons of your people, and say to them: When I bring the sword on it, on a land, and take one man from the people of the land, of their borders, and set him for their watchman;

Eze 33:3  if, when he sees the sword come on the land, he blows the trumpet and warns the people,

Eze 33:4  then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, if the sword does come and take him away, his blood shall be on his own head.

Eze 33:5  He heard the sound of the trumpet and did not take warning. His blood shall be on himself. But he who takes warning shall deliver his soul.

Eze 33:6  But if the watchman sees the sword coming, and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned; if the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity. But I will require his blood at the watchman’s hand.

Eze 33:7  And you, son of man, I have set you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore you shall hear the Word from My mouth, and warn them from Me.

Eze 33:8  When I say to the wicked, O wicked one, you shall surely die; if you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked one shall die in his iniquity; but I will require his blood at your hand.

Eze 33:9  But, if you warn the wicked of his way, to turn from it; if he does not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your soul.

Many people today as it was then, can’t stand to hear what the Watchman has to say. Instead, they murmur about him and talk about his personal faux pas for why he does this or that. They speak in secret places behind his back and then some begin to take potshots at him both then in the times of the prophets and today. They don’t like how he does his job, and they most certainly won’t lift a finger to help him do the work he is doing.

They do not fear Yehovah nor believe He sends people to warn them of impending doom. No, they think these disasters are all part of life and the normal ebb and flow of life. They all figure they are able to read the scriptures and understand them by themselves. They do not need any man to explain anything to them.

If Stephen was alive today and said what he spoke then to you today, yes you would stone him yourself.

Act 7:51  O stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so you do.

Act 7:52  Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you have now been the betrayers and murderers;

Act 7:53  who received the Law through disposition of angels, and did not keep it.

Many of you would condemn Yehshua because He upset your current understanding and hurt your feelings.

Mat 21:12  And Jesus went into the temple of God and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves.

Mat 21:13  And He said to them, It is written, “My house shall be called the house of prayer”; but you have made it a den of thieves.

Each one of you claims you would not have stoned him, but by your actions, you are deceiving yourselves and giving yourselves away. You attack today those sharing the scriptures with you when they point out your sins. You are in agreement with Torah until they get around to exposing the secret things you do against Yehovah.

Jas 3:1  My brothers, do not be many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.

Jas 3:2  For in many things we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same is a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body.

Jas 3:3  Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, so that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.

Jas 3:4  Behold also the ships being so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small rudder, where the impulse of him steering desires.

Jas 3:5  Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. Behold how little a fire kindles how large a forest!

Jas 3:6  And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell.

Jas 3:7  For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.

Jas 3:8  But no one can tame the tongue, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

Jas 3:9  By this we bless God, even the Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God.

Jas 3:10  Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

Jas 3:11  Does a fountain send forth at the same hole the sweet and the bitter?

Jas 3:12  Can the fig tree, my brothers, bear olive berries; or a vine, figs? So no fountain can yield both salt water and fresh.

Many so-called “brethren” have no problem committing Lashon Harah against those who are pointing out the sins of all of us. Where do you fit in this situation? Are you condemning those warning the people or are you supporting them? Yehovah knows the truth even if you do not and He will repay each their full rewards for what they do.

Are you getting the spots out in preparation for the wedding?  Or are you satisfied with your soiled dress to present to our King Yehovah?

2Co 11:2  For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy. For I have espoused you to one Man, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

2Co 11:3  But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, so your thoughts should be corrupted from the simplicity due to Christ.

Do you think you are saved because you believe?  Do you confess Christ? Is that why you are saved?

2Ti 4:3  For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but they will heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear.

2Ti 4:4  And they will turn away their ears from the truth and will be turned to myths.

Has anything really changed? Are you not doing exactly as they did in the Bible? How many myths and false sources of information do you follow? I know the real fake news are the reputable sources I site.

Are the messengers supposed to be likeable by the people? Would you listen to them if you heard them? Really?

1 Kings 22:8   (MKJV)
8  And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may inquire of Jehovah. But I hate him, for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

18  And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell you that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil?

Isaiah 28:12   (MKJV)
12  To whom He said, This is the rest; cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing. Yet they were not willing to hear.

Jeremiah 6:16-17   (MKJV)
16  So says Jehovah, Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths where the good way is, and walk in it, and you shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk in it.

17  Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Listen to the sound of the ram’s horn. But they said, We will not listen.

Jeremiah 18:18   (MKJV)
18  Then they said, Come and let us plot schemes against Jeremiah. For the Law shall not perish from the priest, nor wisdom from the wise, nor the Word from the prophet. Come and let us strike him with the tongue, and let us not pay attention to any of his words.

Amos 7:10-17   (MKJV)
10  Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has plotted against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words.

11  For so Amos says: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely go into exile out of his land.

12  And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go, flee for yourself into the land of Judah; and eat bread there, and prophesy there.

13  But do not prophesy again any more at Bethel; for it is the king’s temple, and it is the king’s royal house.

14  Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah: I was no prophet, nor was I a prophet’s son. But I was a herdsman and a gatherer from sycamore trees.

15  And Jehovah took me from behind the flock, and Jehovah said to me, Go, prophesy to My people Israel.

16  Now then hear the Word of Jehovah. You say, Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not drop words against the house of Isaac.

17  So Jehovah says this: Your wife shall be a harlot in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line. And you shall die in a defiled land; and Israel shall surely go into exile out of his land.

Luke 20:19   (MKJV)
19  And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him the same hour. And they feared the people, for they perceived that He had spoken this parable against them.

You are no different than those written of in the Bible. You murmur against those teaching you and in time will plot to have them silenced.

Let me close with this.

Who has shown you the meaning of Daniel 9:24-27?

Who has been able to unlock the books that Yehovah told Daniel to seal until the end of days?

Whoever that is would only be able to do so if Yehovah opened his mind to understand it and explain it.

So who has done this?

Dan 12:2  And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

Dan 12:3  And those who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the sky; and those who turn many to righteousness shall shine as the stars forever and ever.

Dan 12:4  But you, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, even to the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

Who told you to watch 2020 before 2020 was here?

Who published this information for you in multiple books?

Who told you that sword famine and plague would be starting in 2020?

Do we not have Sword famine and plague happening in the world right now? Is that just a coincident, a lucky guess?

Who is teaching you about the prophecies in the Sabbatical and Jubilee Cycles? Who is doing that?

Who?

Why do you not support that person? Why do you condemn them week in and week out?

Is he leading you away from Yehovah or back to keeping His Torah?

Are things he says coming to pass or has nothing come to pass he said?

Deu 18:15  Jehovah your God will raise up to you a Prophet from the midst of you, of your brothers, One like me. To Him you shall listen,

Deu 18:16  according to all that you desired of Jehovah your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying: Let me not hear again the voice of Jehovah my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, so that I do not die.

Deu 18:17  And Jehovah said to me, They have spoken well what they have spoken.

Deu 18:18  I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brothers, one like you, and will put My words in His mouth. And He shall speak to them all that I shall command Him.

Deu 18:19  And it shall happen, whatever man will not listen to My Words which He shall speak in My name, I will require it of him.

Deu 18:20  But the prophet who shall presume to speak a word in My name which I have not commanded him to speak or who shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.

Deu 18:21  And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word which Jehovah has not spoken?

Deu 18:22  When a prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah, if the thing does not follow nor come to pass, that is the thing which Jehovah has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You shall not be afraid of him.

Again who has been able to explain the book of Daniel which was sealed until the end? Which of you are asleep and who is awake? Who is that person and what is his name?

Isa 29:10  For Jehovah has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes; He has covered the prophets and your heads, the seers.

Isa 29:11  And the vision of all has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which they give to one who knows books saying, Please read this; and he says, I cannot, for it is sealed.

Isa 29:12  And the book is delivered to him who does not know books, saying, Please read this; and he says, I do not know books.

Isa 29:13  And Jehovah said, Because this people draw near Me with their mouth, and with their lips honor Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear toward Me is taught by the command of men;

Isa 29:14  therefore, behold, I will go on doing among this people, a wonder, even a wonder. For the wisdom of their wise ones shall perish, and the understanding of their intelligent ones shall be hidden.

Mat 15:7  Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

Mat 15:8  “This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

Mat 15:9  But in vain they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”

Nothing has changed. The people who say they obey and follow Yehovah are still the ones killing the prophets. They start by first doing it with their words and attitudes and then with lashon harah and then….

Eze 33:30  And you, son of man, the sons of your people are still talking about you by the walls, and in the doors of the houses, and speaking to one another, each man to his brother, saying, I pray you, come and hear what is the Word which comes from Jehovah.

Eze 33:31  And they come to you as the people come, and they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words. But they will not do them. For with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their unjust gain.

Eze 33:32  And lo, you are to them as a singer of love songs with a beautiful voice, and able to play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them.

Eze 33:33  And when this happens; lo, it will come; then they shall know that a prophet has been among them.

It is coming!

    Do you have teachings on the Sabbatical year? Dos and don’ts? can I plant in my greenhouse? In anything? Harvest of berry bushes? harvest herbs for medicine?

      Shabbat Shalom Cindy, if you go to our Facebook page there you will find others who are wrestling with how to do this. https://www.facebook.com/groups/871038516263909/?multi_permalinks=5373202666047449&notif_id=1651252199022002&notif_t=feedback_reaction_generic&ref=notif

      But the commandment is simple. Do not plant, do not harvest, stock up in the 6th year, forgive debts.

      Whatever grows of its own accord, berry bushes and trees you can eat. Some in the garden. Whatever grows of its own you can eat. But you can not harvest it and put it down in the freezer for the winter. That is harvesting. You can collect enough for your family for that night or the week but you must leave the rest for others or the animals to eat.

      Hi Cindy, do your harvesting this year, for the next Shmittah year. Bottle them, preserve and make jams etc. then in that year, what grows you can collect for use, but only for ‘fresh’ use on a daily basis, (not harvest). nothing to be planted in the soil from Aviv 1 to Aviv 1. get prepared this year, allow things to self seed and so Elohim will allow to grow from what self seeds which you can use. no pruning of any trees.

      In addition, at the bottom of the home page of sightedmoon, there is link called “Preparing for the Sabbatical Year” (https://sightedmoon.com/sabbatical-year/) that everyone here is welcome to participate in… either to ask how-to questions or better yet give advice based on their Sabbatical Year experience in the past.
