Found this while looking for related connections. “The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.” Ayn Rand - she is connected to Alan Greenspan. That's interesting.

Don't get mired down in hopelessness. We all know what their plans are, 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved- (Ephesians 2:4-5). I used to live in this fatalistic negativity too. I'm getting away from that. Besides, it's not what I say. God says when it's over. 26 "So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. 27 What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. 28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. (Matthew 10:26-28)

I was thinking the same thing. It needs a category name like "doom-fagging"

I'd ask the Orthodox priest who runs this site. He would know if there's anything to it. https://www.orthodoxethos.com/

I listened to this yesterday. It's a discussion about prophecy made in the last century or so. It's long, but says exactly that the nwo will use nukes after Israel attacks Iran. After it's over Christianity will return to it's roots so to speak.

Not an entirely new concept. I was in grade school during the 70s when the first iteration of this concept was brought to our attention. Back then the police wanted to put an id tag in a child's shoe. They fingerprinted us too. I guess as a way to identify a child if they were lucky enough to be found DoA.

O God, our heavenly Father, who lovest mankind and art most merciful and compassionate, have mercy upon Thy servants, Valley-Lily and Valley-Lily's brother and family, for whom I humbly pray Thee and commend to Thy gracious care and protection.

Be Thou, O God, their guide and guardian in all their endeavors, lead them in the path of Thy truth, and draw them nearer to Thee, that they may lead a godly and righteous life in Thy love and fear, doing Thy will in all things.

Give them grace that they may be temperate, industrious, diligent, devout, and charitable.

Defend them against the assaults of the enemy, and grant them wisdom and strength to resist all temptation and corruption of this life, and direct them in the way of salvation:

Through the merits of Thy Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and the intercessions of His Most-Holy Mother and of all Thy blessed Saints. Amen

O Lord Jesus Christ our God, Who did patiently endure the scourging and wounding of Your most holy Body, that You might save the souls and bodies of Your people, look graciously, we beseech You, upon the suffering body of this Your servant and give him strength to endure patiently whatsoever You shall see fit to lay upon him. Bless the means employed for the working out of his cure, granting that he may so endure his sufferings in the flesh that the wounding of his body may be to avail for the correcting and salvation of his soul, for Yours it is to show mercy and to save, O Christ our God; and to You do we send up Glory, as to Your Eternal Father and Your All‑Holy, Good and Life‑creating Spirit, both now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

O Lord Almighty, healer of our souls and bodies, Who putteth down and raiseth up, Who chastiseth and health also; now, in Thy great mercy, visit our brother Judge Caprio who is sick. Stretch forth Thy hand that is full of healing and health, and raise him up, and cure him of his illness. Put away from him the spirit of disease and of every malady, pain and fever to which he is bound. And if he has sins and transgressions, grant to him remission and forgiveness, for Thou lovest humankind. Yea, O Lord my God, have pity on Thy creation, through the compassions of Thine only-begotten Son, together with Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, with whom Thou art blessed, both now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen

Almighty Lord, Physician of souls and bodies, look down upon Your servant, Garick with Your great mercy, for he is suffering great infirmity of body and soul. Stretch forth Your loving arm which is so full of healing and health, and is able to raise Garick from his bed of pain. Reprove the spirit of weakness which is in Garick. Drive far from him that which is afflicting by pain, wounds, chills, fever, or weakness of body.

In your love for mankind; loosen, remit, and forgive all the sins of your servant, Garick, whether committed in thought, word or deed; intentionally, or unwittingly; that he might also know healing of soul.

Yea, O Lord, our God, have pity on Your creation, through the compassion of Your only-begotten Son, together with Your All-Holy, Good, and Life-Giving Spirit, both now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen

Merciful Lord, visit us in our time of need and affliction; and as you healed Jairus’ daughter and raised her from her bed of infirmity, visit your servants, Master, and deliver both of them from sickness and pain. For you alone have born the sickness and affliction of our world and with you nothing is impossible. For you are all-merciful and to you we ascribe glory and adoration forever. Amen You're a good friend. Pray about what God would have you do in this situation.

All-plenteous Lord Jesus Christ, Who was once even Thyself a child and Who used to love and bless children, have mercy upon this child and the children of our time, and save them – so that unbaptized children may be baptized, and so that baptized children may be strengthened in their faith in Thee, Who art Truth eternal, and in their love for Thee, Who art Love ineffable.

Save, O Lord, This child and those children whom unbelieving parents corrupt with atheism and turn away from Thee, their Savior and salvation.

Save, O All-meek Lord, This child and also those children whom evil teachers, without God or soul, alienate from Thee, their Savior and salvation.

Save, O Lord, This child and also those children whose pure soul is defiled by all the immorality in the streets, in the theater, and on television -save them from the impurity of the streets and the theater and from every impurity.

Save, O All-merciful Lord, this child and also those children who are orphans and have fallen into the hands of cruel guardians, or bad stepfathers or stepmothers, or those who are supposed to rear them but do not — save them from hearing blasphemous words and from seeing malicious deeds.

Save, O Son of God, this child and the sons of the sons of men, whom the world tugs here and there into many physical trainings and occupations, without giving them any training in Thy Holy Law, training in proper thoughts, in truth and mercy, and in all deeds of goodness and righteousness.

Help This child and the children of this age, O Almighty One, so that they may grow up and mature to Divine sonship and heavenly citizenship, for their eternal salvation and for Thy glory and praise. Amen.

O Lord our God, the Physician of our souls and bodies, look down upon Thy servant and cure him of all infirmities of the flesh, in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, with Whom Thou art blessed, together with Thy Most Holy, Gracious, and Life-giving Spirit, always, now and forever, and unto ages of ages. Amen Thought you might find this interesting because it's Alaska related.

PRAY for God's protection of our military everywhere. Sabaoth (se bâ'ôt) means "armies" or "hosts." Jehovah Sabaoth can be translated as "The Lord of Armies" (1 Samuel 1:3). This name denotes His universal sovereignty over every army, both spiritual and earthly. The Lord of Hosts is the king of all heaven and earth. (Psalm 24:9-10; Psalm 84:3; Isaiah 6:5). --- Jehovah Nissi is a name that symbolizes God's protection and guidance over His people. Moses used this name after God gave Israel a miraculous victory over the Amalekites. It serves as a reminder that God leads and defends us in our spiritual battles. '-- Psalm 18:2 The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. --- Psalm 62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
