Podcasts about My People

Well, well, look who's back. A surprisingly resilient little group, returning for the third part of our conversation about the 2020 propaganda spectacular, “My People, My Homeland." If you haven't listened to the first two parts, I relatively politely suggest you go do that. Otherwise, you're just walking into Act Three of a very confusing play with absolutely no snacks." International relations are still... lets call them... delicate. But here we are—carrying on; one awkward subtitle at a time." As always, we'll be employing both spoilers and profanity with all the grace of a malfunctioning fax machine. If that's not your thing, tap 'stop' before the music ends; lest your sensibilities be f@#d with. And of course, in keeping with our recent tradition: ‘hello,' ‘howdy,' and ‘Nǐ hǎo' to the fine folks in foreign and domestic intelligence that are monitoring this podcast. You've been with us through so much. We feel... watched. In a good way. Next week, we're switching gears a bit, so consider this your heads-up. Change is coming. Again.

Welcome back to BS Reactor. This is the second part of our conversation about the 2020 propaganda movie “My People, My Homeland”. Listen to part one so this makes sense. To cover all bases again... yes, we're recording from the United States in the year 2025 and it's particularly messy here right now in terms for international relations.  If you want a timely and cogent analysis of any part of the conflict you are listening to the wrong podcast. If, instead, you want to hear fart jokes and unhinged thoughts from nerds... congrats you found us. As always we'll be using spoilers and profanity to get our points across.    As per the last podcast intro... “hello”, “howdy”, and “Nǐ hǎo“... feel free to like and subscribe. And thanks for listening, we appreciate you.

Welcome back to BS Reactor. Were we get our friends to talk about stuff we could't get other people in our lives to chat with us about. There's going to be profanity and spoilers here so if you're not into that sort of thing; beware. This week we're starting our chat about the 2020 Chinese Propaganda film “My People My Homeland”. Yes the humans know it's probably deranged to start a conversation about this film inside the USA right now, where political tensions (both internal and external) are at historic levels. However, we're not the sort of podcast that pulls punches; and the humans here are in fact a little deranged. So “hello”, “howdy”, and “Nǐ hǎo “ to the members of the CIA, FBI, and CCP that are listening in for their day job. Hope you get a few laughs.  And as always thanks for listening we appreciate you.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_People,_My_Homeland https://BSReactor.com https://soundcloud.com/bsreactor

This is message 10 in The Power of God's Name 2 Chronicles 7:12-16 Those who are called by God's name carry both a privilege and a responsibility. When His people humble themselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from their sin, God responds with mercy, restoration, and power. The goal is not political change or national healing—it is the glory of God among His people. When the church returns to Him, He is pleased to forgive, to dwell among them again, and to use them for His purposes. True revival begins when God's people live like they belong to Him.

Rabash. Record 925. And I Will Take You as My People

I'm back. I've been in hibernation for the last couple of months, basically paralyzed by what can only be described as a rapid descent into authoritarian hell. So, today's podcast is brought to you by the letter "T" for "terrorism". The government is going to great lengths to brand anyone who dares question the authority of the POWERS THAT BE, a domestic terrorist. So, in today's Set For Sentencing, we talk about three cases where the terror label is applied and the potential or actual consequences.   Of course, I'm back in action with the incomparable Mark Allenbaugh.   IN THIS EPISODE:  Breaking down the “Tesla” indictement against Frederick Cooper Delving into the terror element of the Luigi Mangioni case, where AG Bondi just announced the govt. is seeking death. A massive injustice in North Dakota where the government and judge abused a domestic terrorism provision in the guidelines as a show of cruelty against a 50 year old autistic man, sentencing him to 25 years in prison. If you want to know more about Cameron Smith's Case, here is an article in the New York Times.  If you'd like to support his defense in any way, reach out to me (doug@dougpassonlaw.com).  His appeal is pending, and we will not abandon this fight. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/us/north-south-dakota-energy-facility-attacks.html?unlocked_article_code=1.3U4.1nqZ.WXyt8a1LAAns&smid=url-share ON A LIGHTER NOTE: I'm back on the tequila train.  If you've listened to previous episodes, many involve a tequila tie-in and recommendation for a great sip.  It helps the medicine (of authoritarianism) go down. Today I had my choice of two:  Tequila Chamucos (i.e. “Diablo Blanco”) and Mijenta Blanco Maestra Secltion No. 1 Tequila.  Mijenta was the clear winner both in flavor and in theme. Mijenta, in Spanish is derived from “Mi Gente” which means “My People.”    This particular expression was made from agave grown from seeds, not clones.  Mijenta Tequila https://mijenta-tequila.com/ And if you take away nothing from the events of the day is that this great American experiment of ours is meant to be “by the people and for the people” and at the end of the day, the people have the power.  It's time to fight, by all peaceful means necessary, the rapid slide into authoritarian rule.   We have to plant the seeds of resistance and let them grow, unafraid, and undaunted.

Jeremiah 7:23 But this is what I commanded them, saying, ‘OBEY My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be MY PEOPLE . And WALK in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.'

Hosea 2:16-23God's Marriage to Israel16 “And it will be in that day,” says the Lord, “she will call me ‘My Husband,' and she will no longer call me ‘Baal.' 17 And I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, and their names will not be remembered again. 18 And I will establish a treaty with them in that day, with the beasts of the field and with the birds of the heavens and the reptiles of the land, and I will crush bow and sword and battle from the land, and I will establish you in hope. 19 And I will betroth you to me for eternity, and I will betroth you to me in righteousness and in judgment and with mercy and with compassionate feelings. 20 And I will betroth you to me in trust, and you will recognize the Lord.” 21  “And it will be in that day,” says the Lord, “I will listen to the heavens, and it will listen to the earth, 22  and the earth will listen to the grain and the wine and the olive oil, and they will listen to Jezreel, 23  and I will sow her for myself upon the land, and I will love her who was not loved, and I will say to Not My People, ‘You are My People,' and he will say, ‘You are the Lord, my God.' ” Rick Brannan, Ken M. Penner et al., The Lexham English Septuagint, Second Edition (Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2020), Ho 2:16–23.

My People, we're back with another episode. Many have probably seen Chef B around, on the line at The Biscuit Joint. Many don't even know he's part owner. That's just who Brandon is.. Humble for where he is at and the people around him to where he doesn't say too much. We get to know about B more in this sit-down. It's been a long journey, but I look up to this guy in many ways. Tap In & Give it a listen.

Imani Perry discusses her new book, Black in Blues: How a Color Tells the Story of My People, which looks at Black American history by examining the significance of the color blue. Perry discussed the book at our sold-out February Get Lit with All Of It book club event. We present these highlights.

Ho 2:1–15.1 “Say to your brother, My People, and to your sister, Shown Mercy, 2  ‘Contend against your mother, contend! Because she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. And I will remove her fornication from my face, and her adultery from the middle of her breasts, 3  in order that I might strip her naked and restore her just as on the day of her birth. And I will make her a wilderness, and I will appoint her like dry land, and I will kill her with thirst. 4  And I will not show mercy to her children, because they are children of fornication. 5  Because their mother committed fornication; she who bore them was disgracing herself. Because she said, “I will go after my lovers, who are giving me my bread and my water and my clothes and my linens and my olive oil and all things, as many as belong to me.” 6  On account of this, look, I will hedge her way with thorns, and I will wall up roads, and she will not find her path. 7  And she will closely pursue her lovers and not take hold of them. And she will seek them and not find them. And she will say, “I will go and return to my former husband, because it was well with me then rather than now.” 8  And she did not know that I gave her the grain and the wine and the olive oil, and I multiplied money for her, but she made silver and gold for Baal. 9  Because of this, I will return and gather in my grain at its time and my wine in its season, and I will remove my clothes and my linens, so that she might not cover her shame. 10  And now, I will uncover her impurity before her lovers, and no one will ever deliver her from out of my hand. 11  And I will turn away all her festivities, her holidays and her new moons and her Sabbaths and all her holy days. 12  And I will destroy her vineyard and her fig trees, about which she said, “These are my wages, which my lovers have given me.” And I will make them into a witness, and the wild beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens and the reptiles of the earth will devour them. 13  And I will take vengeance upon her for the days of the Baals, on which she used to sacrifice to them, and put on her earrings and her necklaces, and go after her lovers, but forgot me,' says the Lord. 14  ‘Because of this, behold, I will mislead her, and I will make her like a wilderness, and I will speak to her heart. 15  And I will give her her plots of land from that place and the valley of Achor, to open her understanding. And she will be made low there like in the days of her childhood, and like in the days of her ascent out of the land of Egypt.' ” Rick Brannan, Ken M. Penner et al., The Lexham English Septuagint, Second Edition (Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2020), Ho 2:1–15.

Imani Perry's latest book, Black in Blues: How a Color Tells the Story of My People, is an evocative exploration of what the colour can tell us about being Black in the United States today — and the extraordinary human capacity to find beauty in the face of devastation.

No matter the question, reading is the answer. And in a year starting off like 2025 is, we certainly need a lot of answers to life's questions. I am thrilled to welcome fellow Angeleno bookworm Traci Thomas (host of The Stacks podcast) to talk about the most anticipated new book releases of 2025. We talk about novels and nonfiction by debut and beloved authors publishing this year and sorry not sorry about this conversation that will send your book budget soaring. There are so many good books to look forward to in the next six months. Also in this episode, Traci really gives me a lot to think about in terms of how we talk about books and why it's okay to be publicly critical of books that don't work for us. As an author who is jumpy about that concept, Traci really shifted my perspective on this.

God said, “My People suffer because of the lack of knowledge” because they do not know Me (Hosea 4:6). Thank you, Holy Spirit!

My People, We're back. A year in STL it's time to hit the pedal and start the shift. A fire guest list aligned for the year, and fire convo, and questions with talent all around STL. The Swervinn' Podcast is here. Took this episode by myself to look back on what 2024 brought me, and looking into 2025.

It appears Grandma Mangione has some interesting final wishes. Mary Mangione died a year ago and there are some surprising details in her will. Her fortune is said to be worth at least $30 million and possibly as much as 100 million. Her grandson Luigi Is suspected of murdering United Health, CEO Brian Thompson. This might be the first of Trump‘s campaign promises to go down in flames. The president-elect now says it might be too hard to lower the price of groceries. We welcome Congressman Steve Cohen to the show. His district in Tennessee includes Memphis. We'll talk with him about the challenges this incoming administration will likely pose. No Friday is complete without a trip to Florida to see what's going on with our friends in the South. Mark may not be here today but we're still on machete, meth and gator watch. Maybe it's a great weekend to curl up with a book or watch a movie and we have you covered both ways. Jennifer Caloyeras will swing by the show with some great book suggestions. She is an author and has a podcast called Books are My People. The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder, is ready to round things out with some movie reviews for us.

My Land and My People. Memoirs of His Holiness The Dalai Lama (Chapter9) "My Land and My People" tells the story of the Dalai Lama's life, as well providing a history of the shocking subjugation of the Tibetan people by the Chinese government. Rather than being an angry indictment, however, the book instead issues a gentle appeal for understanding and peace. Schooled behind ancient palace walls to become the leader of Tibet, the Dalai Lama has become a spiritual leader to the world and a leading civil rights advocate. My Land and My People tells the story of his life. In the Himalayan City of Lhasa, the four-year-old son of a humble farmer sat on a huge, gilded throne. His childhood would be unimaginable in both its isolation and a people's adoration. His destiny would be one of immense tragedy and the awesome transformation of a man. Written by the Dalai Lama as a young man in exile, this dignified testament re-creates the miraculous search that identified him as the reincarnated leader of his country. It paints a rare intimate portrait of Tibetan Buddhism-a way of life that would end with a terrifying foreign invasion surpassing sanity and reason. And it reveals the evolution of a man from a gentle monk to a world leader-one struggling to this day to free his country... one able to touch our hearts with the goodness that makes him on of the most beloved men of our time. He was once a small boy was chosen to rule the most mysterious land on Earth. Now the Dalai Lama tells his, and his country's, poignant story.

In Anna Kavan's haunting short story "The Face of My People," we encounter Kling, a man adrift in a world he no longer recognizes. Confined to a psychiatric ward in a foreign land, Kling grapples with a past too painful to articulate and a present that seems to reject his very existence. As the staff and fellow patients struggle to understand him, Kling's isolation deepens, revealing layers of trauma and guilt that transcend mere linguistic barriers. Kavan's stark prose and keen psychological insight invite us to question the nature of belonging, the weight of survival, and the profound loneliness that can persist even in the midst of others. "The Face of My People" offers a poignant exploration of displacement and the human psyche, resonating long after the final word. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Part 3: My People

Seek God's Grace and Mercy   (audio)   David Eells 9/4/24   Exo 34:6 And Jehovah passed by before him [Moses], and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth; 7 keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.   Lovingkindness means “kindness, favor, grace, mercy, pity…”   Multitudes of people have received warnings from the Lord in dreams, visions and prophetic Words of great judgments of devastations and disasters that were to come on America and the whole world. But God's people have prayed for His mercy crying out to the Lord and He has heard their prayers. Many times God's people prayed for His namesake asking for His mercy and grace.   We know God can change or delay what He speaks to us as a warning through prophets, dreams, visions, or His Spirit. Judgments in the Word are unchangeable except by repentance and faith.   God gave us an example of this in the book of Jonah. Jonah cried and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown (Jon 3:4). God told Jonah to preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee (Jon 3:2), so he did. He was not a false prophet. God spared Nineveh, the capital of Assyria, because they repented. This angered Jonah because Assyria was the mortal enemy of Israel and the prophets had already been prophesying that Assyria would conquer rebellious Israel. He wanted them to be destroyed for what he perceived was Israel's sake. Jonah knew that if he preached to Nineveh and they repented, God would not destroy them, so he fled.   Jon 4:1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry. 2 And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hasted to flee unto Tarshish; for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, and repentest thee of the evil. God spared Nineveh around 752 B.C. so that Assyria could conquer the northern ten tribes of Israel around 720 B.C. and then Judah around 701 B.C. Nineveh ultimately did fall around 612 B.C. God knew before He threatened Nineveh that He was going to spare them for the purpose of using them to chasten Israel.   Daniel prayed and interceded for God's people when he understood the timing of the end of the desolations and captivity of Jerusalem.  Dan 9:3 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes. 4 And I prayed unto Jehovah my God, and made confession, and said, Oh, Lord, the great and dreadful God, who keepeth covenant and lovingkindness with them that love him and keep his commandments, 5 we have sinned, and have dealt perversely, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from thy precepts and from thine ordinances; 6 neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, that spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.   7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of face, as at this day; … because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee. 9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgiveness; for we have rebelled against him; 10 neither have we obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.   11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside, that they should not obey thy voice: therefore hath the curse been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God; for we have sinned against him. 13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet have we not entreated the favor of Jehovah our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in thy truth. 14 Therefore hath Jehovah watched over the evil, and brought it upon us; for Jehovah our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth, ...   15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. 16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, let thine anger and thy wrath, I pray thee, be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; … 17 Now therefore, O our God, hearken unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake. 18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies' sake. 19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God, because thy city and thy people are called by thy name.  “You have not because you ask not.” Let's go to Jer 18:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, 2 Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. 3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he was making a work on the wheels. 4 And when the vessel that he made of the clay was marred in the hand of the potter, he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.   5 Then the word of Jehovah came to me, saying, 6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith Jehovah. Behold, as the clay in the potter's hand, so are ye in my hand, O house of Israel. 7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy it; 8 if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.   9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it; 10 if they do that which is evil in my sight, that they obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them. 11 Now therefore, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now everyone from his evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.   Psa 89:14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of thy throne: Lovingkindness and truth go before thy face.   Joe 2:12 Yet even now, saith Jehovah, turn ye unto me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13 and rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto Jehovah your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, and repenteth him of the evil. 14 Who knoweth whether he will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal-offering and a drink-offering unto Jehovah your God?   Isa 55:6 Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found; call ye upon him while he is near: 7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.  Eze 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?   Jer 9:23 Thus saith Jehovah, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches; 24 but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he hath understanding, and knoweth me, that I am Jehovah who exerciseth lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith Jehovah.   Psa 84:11 For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.  Mic 7:18-20 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth over the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger forever, because he delighteth in lovingkindness. 19 He will again have compassion upon us; he will tread our iniquities under foot; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. 20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the lovingkindness to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.   Zec 8:21-22 and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of Jehovah, and to seek Jehovah of hosts: I will go also. 22 Yea, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek Jehovah of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of Jehovah.  Favor is grace.  Mal 1:9 And now, I pray you, entreat the favor of God, that he may be gracious unto us:   Psa 98:1-3 Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song; For he hath done marvelous things: His right hand, and his holy arm, hath wrought salvation for him. 2 Jehovah hath made known his salvation: His righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the nations. 3 He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. (The Lord has certainly brought salvation to the earth by lessoning the judgments, the plagues, taking down the DS, and minimizing the damage of the coming earthquakes across this land.)   Psa 69:13 But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Jehovah, in an acceptable time: O God, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness, Answer me in the truth of thy salvation. Psa 33:5 He loveth righteousness and justice: The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Jehovah.  Psa 107:8 Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!  Joh 1:17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.   Heb 4:16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need. 2Jn 1:3 Grace, mercy, peace shall be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.       God's Grace and Mercy is Here: “JUST ONE ROAR of the LION”   by S. Jha (David's notes in red)   I saw this vision on the 22nd of August 2006. (Remember this is an older vision before these things that are happening now which are turning many things around. Destructive sinful Babylon DS is feeling the wrath of the roar.)   I saw a Lion. I walked with Him to a very high Rock. The Lion then climbed the Rock, and stood on the very top of this high Rock. I stood below, looking up at Him. He let out a LOUD ROAR. And EVERYTHING in the atmosphere / universe changed.   In a flash, I had a 360-degree vision, and what I am about to relate happened in a flash, but I spent the whole of the 22nd of August, just waiting on God to see in ‘slow motion', what I had seen in a speedy flash, and understand what I had seen.   I was told that my mind could not grasp the vastness of the changes I saw in the Vision. So I stayed at home, and did not take up any duties but spent the whole day, off and on, every few hours just re-visiting this vision and seeing it unfurl in more detail, now at a speed that I could cope with. I don´t think I have ever seen such a lengthy vision, condensed into a 360-degree vision flash before.   Frame by frame this is what I saw: I saw Empires fall, and wars begin. (The DS / Khazarian Mafia which has invaded most countries is falling fast. They are also making covert war to stop this. But God is using their weapons on them.)   I saw that where previously, formulas and general understanding were proven, it did not work anymore, where there were people and places overflowing with money one moment, the next morning the moneyed had nothing. (An economic system designed to favor the rich and criminal is crumbling and a new economic system is now being put in place that cuts out the criminals. A redistribution of the wealth is happening. As I have shared in the past, a reversal of fortunes is upon us.)   I saw many ‘proven' thoughts, and ways now nullified. I saw that the balance was tipped in favor of the East. I saw Angels who had been working in the North and Northwest, recalled and sent East.   I saw children snatched out of the hands of some of the parents. (As these demonic entities have been doing for years... stealing the children, but now it is known and children are being freed from these satanists.)   Fresh food stopped in the western area and was diverted to the East. The fertile became barren and the barren became fertile. All this, from Just One Roar of the Lion. (The DS has been destroying our ability to make food through GMO, weather warfare and poisoning from the air, water, and food. Destroying granaries and silos, etc. but this is coming to an end.)   I saw 3 long lines of writing in the sky. It read: Lost, Lost, Lost. But below it I saw the word: Gain, gain, gain...... where this line ended I could not see, as it just continued on, endlessly.  (Their loss is our gain.) I saw that the East gained money, food, etc. (With the GCR the value of the Eastern poorer nations currency has come up to US standards. And the food of the Gospel is going East. Easterners are receiving Christ and the gospel extremely fast.) The losses were loss of power, prestige, money, position.   I saw: Where a soldier stood to load his gun, to shoot, even the last single bullet he had was taken away. (Trump has stopped many endless wars of the DS.) Where a soldier stood ready for packing his gun, where truce had been declared, divine bullets loaded his gun, and led him to shoot.  (Divine bullets are not physical but spiritual to the casting down of Satan and his angels.) In the Universe, expected cosmic events were diverted and unexpected ones were brought forth. Deserts bloomed, greenery was made barren. Light that had focused on the West, now moved East. (People who are saturated with the gospel light and done nothing with it are losing it. The greatest revivals are happening in the East. Whole nations are being taken over. And westerners have been receiving the spirits from the East.)   This was so sudden that it was like saying... “One morning I woke up, and all was changed”. (Amos 3:8) The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesy? The Lion has Roared. (We have been prophesying these things and they are happening.)   Dark clouds disintegrated from one place and gathered in another. Whilst there was a West to East exchange on a large level, on individual levels there were changes too. Everything, everything, everything, was changing. All this from, Just One Roar of the Lion. (A reversal of fortunes.)   Just that One Roar, and things from here, were flying there and vice versa. People/Nations, who had got used to a way of life/of thinking, were in for either a shock or a surprise.   CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE.   The hungry were fed, and the fed went hungry. (The GCR is redistributing the wealth but not as the Communist overlords have wished.) All opposites were happening. Many homeless were housed, and many of those with homes became homeless. (Those who are receiving the wealth, including many Christians, are humanitarians.) Light became dark and dark became light. Whatever the present situation, the opposite was happening. Many rich became poor and many of the poor became rich.   All this, from Just One Roar of the Lion. Clouds that were meaning to rain, suddenly disintegrated and it rained elsewhere, where least expected.   People were in puzzlement. They said to themselves, “but I thought....” No, nothing would be as ‘I thought.' Many were saying, “But it always worked this way”. Now no more. For those who said, “It´s never worked for me,” they were surprised to know that it will now. (Grace for many things will be taken from the reprobates and given to those hungry for God.)   Heralds blew trumpets, proclaiming, “End of empire! End of empire!” Anyone who had been a specialist, a monopolist, the kingpin in any area of his life/business, now that would begin to end. Nations that had empires or aspirations building towards it, would now see the beginning of the end of those empires. (The DS empires are crumbling; their economy which favored the rich, the Satanists, and criminals are falling.)   Nothing was the same. Everything, everything had changed. Just One Roar Of The Lion. And He Has Roared.   Empty pockets were filled, the filled emptied. (The new economic system will favor the needy who will see this as a move of God.) Strategic changes were taking place. Whatever had worked like clockwork would not work now. People of peace were making war, and warring nations calmed down. (Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for stopping wars and making peace. But its God!)   For the warring nations it was like the wind was taken out of their sails. Just as Egypt, Persia, Babylon (DS), Rome, Britain etc. were all once superpowers, and empires, but their reign and era ended, so now any ‘super power' or aspirations thereof, was being diffused. Nations that were looked up to were now beginning to be looked down upon and vice versa.   Balance of power and favor had shifted East. Angels in the West held Gold Books. One book was titled “Most Wanted”, the other, “Most Favored”. ‘The Most Wanted' Book had living photographs of the most evil people, the traitors etc. Each one was dealt with and disposed. (As is happening now; they are being hunted down as they once did to the poor and helpless; even the children. The stars are all falling because of their reprobation. Hollywood is dying.)   The Most Favored, in the other gold Book with living photographs, were some of those, who had lived through most desolate conditions, such were lifted up. (All that is related here, remember, was happening all at once. (And so it is)) In the midst of all this, I heard the Angels sing, “Glory, Glory, Glory.”  (And they by the hand of God are making this happen.)1 Time was sped up in some places, in others, it was slowed down. Wild beasts (A parable of wicked men in Ecclesiastes.) were all crouching in fear, afraid. I saw the milk inside of cows curdle. Just One Roar Of the Lion.   I saw Eagles, fitted with miniature bells. The bells were so minute, it was hard to believe that if they rang any could hear. Eagles did not speak, they just carried the bells that were fitted to their beaks. People were to ‘read' the sounds. (Sound is a discernment that is not seen; it must be translated by the hearer.) (I thought how “eagles” represent the “overcomers/man-childs”)   Wheresoever the Eagles flew, to some the ringing of the bells was as a very high, deafening pitch. I was not allowed to hear this high pitch sound, but it was revealed to me, that it was an unbearable/deafening high pitch sound. (To the flesh it will mean death.)   But there were others who heard the same bells, which the Eagles had attached to their beaks, and to these the sound transmitted was different. It was sheer music. (The spirit man will love the sound for it is life to him.) I heard this. These people had their hands lifted high and they were happily sighing and exclaiming, “Finally!” (The spirit man will discern life and deliverance.)   I saw Angels collect gold crowns from those in the North, and they dipped the crowns in a smoky place (the kind of smoke one sees with dry ice), and when the crowns emerged from the smoke, they looked exactly the same, but now they were silver. (The beast almost always came from the north against the people. The rich have ruled over the world with a heavy hand. Their wealth shall be distributed.)   No matter in which direction I looked all had changed. It seemed that the very nature of nature changed.   Volcanoes that were dormant, the ashes were removed, and a new fire was lit in them. It seemed that certain species suddenly became extinct.    Reams of paper fell from the sky; paper and pens were sent down, for Chroniclers and Historians, for it was going to be a busy time for them. (This could be rewriting of false history as it really happened. The declass will reveal what really happened making null and void all the past administrations' works. Also many will pass on the Word and testimonies.) Nothing of all creation was left untouched, at Just One Roar of The Lion.   Outside, the earth looked still, but within were rapid-fire changes. Quick, sudden, some were devastating, others surprisingly favorable, but this favor was mostly for the East. (Poor countries will share in the stolen wealth.)  I saw what looked like a flight-path that normally airlines describe on their brochures, as routes of flights/destinations. For prophets, their flight-paths were moved from here to there, as if randomly, but it was not random, it was the Plan of God for prophets. Prophets will be suddenly moved, and see things from a new vantage point. (This has happened. We once saw the DS plan to devastate Christianity and now everything is changing through prayer.)     I saw some people become tar (Frozen blackness), whilst others became fountains of water. Just One Roar Of The Lion. (As Isaiah said the Curl shall be known for what he is. Isa 32:2-8 And a man shall be as a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a weary land. 3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken. 4 And the heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.   5 The fool shall be no more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful. (The faction in the Church and government are turning this way) 6 For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice profaneness, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. 7 And the instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right. 8 But the noble deviseth noble things; and in noble things shall he continue.   Many changes took place in the Universe. On earth, snows of old melted, and water in unlikely places froze. It is no ordinary thing, when the Lion Roars.  Those dressed warm in the winter, had their clothes taken away, they were left naked. But the naked street-dweller was clothed. There was a divine transfer of wealth, knowledge, and understanding. (It is happening)   People who'd talked and talked for years, had their mouths taped. (Fake MSM)  But, as in Ezekiel 24:2, those that had been mute for a season now spoke. (God will anoint the humble with grace.)   As the vision progressed, I heard the Lord say, “My People have no roof over their head. I Am their Roof.” I was flown speedily over building after building, and as we flew, I heard the Lord say “Not Mine, not Mine, not Mine, not Mine, not Mine, not Mine, not Mine.” Now I was despairing. What then was God's? (The buildings of the apostates will be proven not to be part of his Kingdom.)   Then I was shown people in the fields, with instruments. They had no roof over their heads. These were God's own. (Discipleship will not be found in the dead Churches but in highways and byways.)   The buildings we flew over were demolished by an elephant's trunk and many T.V. Studios had a fire underneath them. (MSM replaced as is happening now.) Apparently these buildings had been re-built on the same grounds where prior buildings had been condemned and burnt. These new buildings had been built on the foundations of charred remains and ashes. (Buildings of apostates will have no protection. Their judgments will be for a foundation of understanding and fearing God.)   I saw oil poured out from the sky, in two separate ways. One fell over people who gladly received it over them and laughed in the ‘oil- rain'. On the other hand, for others, the oil-rain caused to be set aflame all that was below. (God's anointing will rain down as the latter rain but will bring anointed judgment with it.)   All that was up to the present became obsolete, and new technology, the secrets of which were hidden in nature, appeared. (These new technologies hidden by the elite who thrived on oil wars will be released as President Trump has said. The oil economy is on its way out.)   Science made simple but profound discoveries. I saw Scientists have a ‘Eureka' moment. For many who were researching, studying, looking for, the ‘thing', it was right there before their very noses. Once they saw it they slapped their foreheads, lamenting, “Silly me!” Follies of science were exposed. The simplicity of the discoveries to come were mind-boggling.   Just One Roar Of The Lion. The very nature of nature seemed to be changing. It was as unbelievable as Isa 11:6-8, the wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid;...   In some places, I saw an overabundance of wheat, which flowed into the sea, as it was so plentiful. But in other places I saw land, which was once green, and was now parched land where nothing grew. I saw beautiful blooms on cactus/desert plants.   He who understands these changes will prepare. The Earth was in a global eclipse. One half had light; the other half was in darkness. (This is a spiritual picture of the sheep and the goats.) It seemed that plates were shifted/removed from the earth. (Foundations of many will change.) There were people who raged against God. “We´ll do what we have to, let Him do what He Wants to”, they were saying.   Trees trembled. They knew that their time to be cut had come. To many, prophets and counselors were restored, but from others, the prophets and counselors departed. Sadly, those from whom they departed noticed it not. (Prophets and counsellors that had no eternal effect for good are not missed.)   Focus/emphasis of the Church, and the world, due to the presence of new circumstances, changed.   All this, by Just One Roar Of The Lion. (When He roars again in mid tribulation, Revelation 13, the Church will be tested.)     God's Grace and Mercy is Here: David's Of The Hour & A Changing Of The Guard  Hi Cee / 444Prophecynews.com  https://youtu.be/7kxldb3PBe0?si=ChkrSWFFg4vu541J  David's Of The Hour  Thus says the Lord, “I am raising up my Davids in this hour. I have been preparing them, steadying them, rooting them in Me.  They are like steel. No, they are like titanium. They will not only use the slingshot effectively, but these that I am raising up, will also cut off the heads of Goliath in the Land. Sharply and decisively. They are indestructible, unaware of the fray around them.  They do what they are supposed to do. Nothing can stop them. Many consider them violent. They care not what people think of them. They only do what their Father asks them to do.  They are fearless. They are lightning rods in the Hand of the Lord. They are a prized possession. They cannot be stopped. They devour all that is in their path. Woe to those that try and oppose them. Those that oppose them are annihilated without mercy.  They are hated with the most perfect hatred. They are hated for their single-minded devotion to the Lord. But they are steadfast. They are not moved.  Who can withstand their assault? They trample upon their enemies. They are successful in all they have been called to do. They are given the Spirit without limits. Who can stand before them? Who can oppose them? They are victorious and mighty.  They have been prepared for the hour at hand. They are deadly in their accuracy. Tremble in the presence of the Holy ones. Tremble in the presence of the Lord.  Does not His word come to pass as it is written? All that has been written will come to pass. Look and see the Holy ones who stand on the mountain of the Lord. They are coming. The Davids of the hour.”      A Changing Of The Guard  “I am doing a changing of the guard,” says the Lord. “I have thrown down the gauntlet. No more will those who stand in My pulpits offer up strange fire unto Me. No longer will they speak with polluted lips, representing Me, speaking My Holy Words any longer, as I am removing them.   I am cutting them down and replacing them with a new generation. These are My people I am putting into positions of authority. MY AUTHORITY.  My servants have been prepared in the dark and lonely places. The have been through the refining and purging fire of My dealings. They serve Me with their whole heart.   These are My Davids and their only desire is to serve Me alone. These are the ones I am placing in My positions of authority. I have spoken,” says the Lord.   “These are the ones who stand and say, ‘Who will defy the armies of the LIVING GOD?” These are My representatives. Their lives are not their own.   The others are play-actors who pretend to be My servants, but they are not. These I will remove. Many will not make it through My purging fire. They will be cut down and their disciples also who follow after them.  Consider carefully the Word of the Lord. No longer will a man stand in MY HOUSE and speak MY HOLY WORDS and say, ‘thus and thus', and it will not be from My lips. I will cut them down.   You will see with your eyes, that I AM is among you in your midst. Then My church WILL KNOW that I mean business. That I AM Who I say I AM.   I have held My patience, but now is the time for My sword to be wielded throughout the land.  I have put the two-edged sword in My servants' hands, and they will wield it with great accuracy, as I AM in them, and they shall do exploits. Because they KNOW ME. They that KNOW their God, they shall do exploits.   And so they shall. For him who has ears to hear, hear the Word of the Lord. My servants hear, and they obey.”

In this episode, Rob continues his discussion of the book of Revelation with Wes Howard-Brook. Wes' understanding of what Revelation means for the people of God today may well be the most refined and provocative. This is one interview you won't want to miss, and you will likely need to replay several times as you process the implications for the book of Revelation today.  Wes Howard-Brook has been teaching, writing and living at the intersection of church, academy and the world since 1988. After a career as an attorney for the US federal government and Washington state governments, Wes left law practice in 1985 to earn a Master of Divinity degree at Seattle University. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, he was part of Galilee Circle, an ecumenical Christian small community, which sought to live the radical Word of the Gospel in both personal and public ways, including a series of nonviolent direct actions at various private and public places of warmaking and imperial violence. He taught Bible and theology at Seattle University from 2003-2021. Now retired, Wes continues his Scripture work via a YouTube channel, Radical Bible.  He has written, co-written or co-edited seven books, including two on the Gospel of John: Becoming Children of God: John's Gospel and Radical Discipleship and John's Gospel and the Renewal of the Church.  He is co-author of Unveiling Empire: Reading Revelation Then and Now. Wes' recent project is the two-volumes “Come Out, My People!:” God's Call Out of Empire In the Bible and Beyond. and Empire Baptized: How “Christianity” Embraced What Jesus Rejected, 2nd-5th Centuries. He has also written for numerous publications, including Sojourners, The Other Side, Tikkun Daily, and several Catholic Worker newspapers.  Please "follow" this podcast and give a review on iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
