July 2025 was a month where a quote from Jeremiah rings true.
“We looked for peace, but no good came; and a time for health/healing, and behold trouble.”
Jeremiah 8:15
July saw new wars start and old wars continue. Under the guise of health and security, the US government announced a new digital health ecosystem to gather up all US citizens health information. A 4th of July flood devastated Texas and reports of toxic ‘forever chemicals’ being dumped on farmlands and into water sources came to light. If you look for peace in the world, you will find war and violence. If you look for health, wellness and healing, there too you will find nefarious intentions cloaked as hope and security. What do all of these events have to do with prophecy?
The following map is a summary of current events related to prophecy. Below the map you will find the event details and relevant Scriptural references. Many people have been taught God’s Word in the past tense. This is incorrect. The teachings and scenarios in the Bible and God’s Word are all prophetic, pointing to a future time, and that time is now.
The Mark of the Beast
Digital National ID’s
All countries shown in green below have digital national ID’s. There are only a few countries left in the world that have not completely digitized their national ID’s. In June we looked at the development of a US Citizen database of personal information on all American citizens. In May, the US ‘Real ID‘ was fully implemented with some states already using a digitized version of the identification card. With each passing month another step is taken towards full implementation of the Mark of the Beast. This month we look at a new program just introduced by the US government to track all US citizen health data in a central digital health ecosystem.
“And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that has the mark (charagma – card), or the name/authority of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
Revelation 13:16-18
Digital Health Records accessed with Digital Identity Credentials
At an event called ‘Make Health Tech Great Again‘, the Trump Administration announced a new program within the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services or CMS. The new ”patient-centric’ digital healthcare ecosystem intends to ‘improve patient outcome, reduce provider burden and drive value’ in order to ‘Make America Healthy Again’ according to the presentation. So far ‘commitments’ to the program have been obtained from 60 companies such as Amazon, Apple, Google and OpenAI as will as insurance and medical providers such as athenahealth, CVS and United Health Group.
The vision is for every American and their doctors to upload patient medical information into one digital system that can be shared between doctors and evaluated by AI tools. The promise of convenience for patients and doctors alike sounds like a win-win! Most health companies are already digitizing patient data.
Health Insurance companies, health providers and health technology companies all have apps with patient data or tools to track and encourage you to eat, move and sleep better. Health ‘wearables‘ is already a huge industry with monitors and trackers built into phones, watches, rings, patches and bands. So what it the government really bringing to the table with this digital healthcare ecosystem? A digital national ID and US citizen database to connect everything together.
Digital Privacy
Last month we looked at the new US Citizen database that Palantir has just been hired to develop. This July in the the UK, Palantir was given a contract to process their National Health Service (NHS) data. UK doctors are protesting the move and Palantir is pushing back by accusing doctors of choosing ‘ideology over patient interest.’ The ideology of privacy of ones medical information IS a patient interest. Will Palantir’s new US citizen database also house the health ‘ecosystem’ just announced? A look as Palantir’s website has a page and program dedicated to ‘Federal Help’ and ‘enabling connectivity across the health data ecosystem.’
HIPPA
Privacy of medical information is covered under HIPPA, the Heath Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. The Act requires a persons consent for the very type of data sharing this system is targeting. Just this month, twenty state Attorney General’s sued the Health and Human Services department for violating the medical information privacy rights of US citizens. Why? Medicaid was directed to provided access to all 79 million patients medical records to ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement). Undocumented immigrants can’t enroll in Medicaid, but some documented non-US citizens in need of emergency care do receive aid through Medicaid. In the process of increasing border security a digital layer of security over US citizens health data has been lifted.
Secure Digital Identity Credentials
For the time being, the government digital healthcare ‘ecosystem’ is being rolled out as voluntary. To address concerns with data access security, at the core of this ‘ecosystem’ is a digital identity for each patient. The system will ‘use secure digital identity credentials to obtain medical records from CMS Aligned Networks.’ Enter the QR code. Here is a short video promoting the ‘vision for the future’ in American healthcare. Is this God’s vision or is this in fact a Trojan horse that God has been warning against?
Age Verification for Online access
More and more activities are moving on-line. Parents recognize the access underage children have to adult digital content leading to a push for online age verification. This sounds good! At the end of July a mandatory age check went into place for pornography sites in the UK. Twenty-one US states already have similar laws in place.
Similarly, the harms of social media use by minors is also being addressed through online age verification. In Australia, a complete ban of social media use will go into effect this December for anyone below the age of 16. Most US states have introduced legislation for social media age verification with five states already moving the legislation into law.
How will on-line age verification be implemented? Social media platforms, in many cases, still don’t know, but companies such as YouTube are trialing one method in the US. YouTube will use artificial Intelligence (AI). Machine learning will assess ‘what kind of videos the user searches for, the categories of videos they watch, and how long the account has been active’ as a way to determine age. Common sense concludes it won’t be long before the national digital ID’s will also be used for online age verification.
Biometric Data Use Increases
More and more personal biometric data is linked with digital identities. The EU will begin phasing in a biometric ‘Entry-Exit System’ (EES) in October of this year. Travelers must submit fingerprints or a facial scan at border crossings as part of this system. In the UK, the met police announced they will ‘more than double the use of live facial recognition‘ technology. Even though they are ‘only using it to look for serious offenders’ everyone has to be scanned and digitally matched to an ID in the process.
Cyber-Attacks
Meanwhile, the online world is still the ‘Wild-Wild-West.’ Major corporations and governments staffed with security teams are still unable to maintain privacy of customer information or prevent cyber-attacks that disrupt services and security. In July alone, the following corporations and governments were hacked resulting in outsiders accessing customer data or causing a disruption to services or security. The US nuclear weapons agency, the city of St Paul Minnesota, Quantas in Australia, Aeroflot in Russia and Louis Vuitton in the UK.
The Abomination of Desolation IS the Mark of the Beast
What you are seeing is a digital tracking system that will monitor and control your finances, your health, your movements and your employment. This IS the abomination that will make you desolate of your freedom and finances. What should you do? Flee to the mountain of God’s Instruction!
“When you therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso reads, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea (with Judah) flee to My Mountain:”
Matthew 24:15-16
“And arms (armed forces) shall stand on his (the governmental beast) part, and they (The Whore & the Beast) shall pollute (or defile) the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice (wages), and they shall place the abomination that makes desolate.”
Daniel 11:31
“And he (the Beast) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark (card, Identification) in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
Revelation 13:16- 14:1
“And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on Mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.”
“Now therefore, what have I here, saith the Lord, that My people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the Lord; and My Name continually every day is blasphemed. Therefore My People shall know My Name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am He that does speak: behold, it is I. How beautiful upon My Mountain are the feet of him that brings good tidings, that publishes peace; that brings good tidings of good, that publishes salvation; that says to Zion, Your God reigns! Your watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion.”
Isaiah 52:5-8
Israel-Hamas War
Famine
The famine in Gaza continues to worsen with more countries demanding Israel allow more food into the territory. The number of people actually dying from starvation has risen to over 85 per day and rising in the last week of July. Farming is no longer possible with the ongoing war and lack of water and Israel has banned fishing making aid distribution the only source of food for Gazans. The actual amount of food allowed in has not meet minimum caloric requirements for the population for many months. This is a man-made famine.
Accessing food at distribution points is a deadly endeavor. The UN reports over 1000 civilians have died trying to access aid sites. One US Army veteran who worked for the foundation distributing food said he had ‘never witnessed the level of brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population.’ At the end of July, Israel said it would pause military actions in some areas of Gaza to allow more food to enter. They have also said they will start allowing airdropping of food. Currently one in every three people in Gaza are estimated to be going multiple days without any food.
“Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths. The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goes therein shall not know peace.”
Isaiah 59:7-8
Genocide in Gaza
More and more individuals, organizations and world leaders are accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza. Two Israeli human rights organizations have now also accused Israel of genocide. A particularly damaging and devastating attack on a seaside cafe brought renewed claims of war crimes. A 500 lb bomb, used to generate a massive blast wave, killed between 24 and 36 people sitting in a cafe in early July. The port area where the cafe was located was not under an evacuation order or perceived to be part of the current military operations.
A ‘Just War’
Experts in international law chimed in to discuss what are the ‘acceptable civilian casualties’ based on the undisclosed target. These ‘international law’ comments come from the ‘Just War’ theory. Similar to ‘the ends justify the means’, ‘just-war’ concepts are a way to knowingly ‘accept’ civilian casualties before they even happen. You can thank Roman Catholic ‘Saint’ Augustine for advocating this ungodly line of thought. ‘Just War’ theory now perpetrates military strategies throughout the world.
So with all that, how are those peace talks going? During the last few days of July, Israel and the US completely withdrew from ceasefire talks with Hamas. Netanyahu said he is considering ‘alternative options’ without expounding on any alternative actions other than continued war.
“But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.”
Isaiah 57:20-21
Stray Ammunition or Artificial Intelligence (AI) Warfare?
A tank shelling in Gaza landed on the regions only Catholic Church, killing three and injuring a priest which Pope Francis used to call on a daily basis. Netanyahu was quick to call Pope Leo and blame a ‘stray’ round on the strike. There has been a lot of stray ammunition in Gaza. Several children collecting water were killed in an attack that brought immediate condemnation. Again, Israel claimed a missile had malfunctioned. But how would Israel know? Who’s calling the shots?
Israel is using AI to determine targets in their war against Gaza. Their AI system is called Habsora or ‘The Gospel’ in Hebrew. One justification for using AI is it makes it easier ‘to avoid harming innocent people’ through precision targeting. The war in Gaza is a live testing ground for AI warfare. With over 60,000 now dead, AI has either identified a lot of threats within the imputed parameters or not been selective at all. According to the Engineering Director of AI Assurance at Trail of Bits (a technology security firm, ‘AI algorithms are notoriously flawed with high error rates observed across applications that require precision, accuracy, and safety…’
A Concentration Camp in Gaza
Where is this war going? One proposal is for a ‘humanitarian city’ to be built in southern Gaza. The administration asked the Israeli military to draft up a construction plan to initially hold 600,000 people with expansion options for the entire population of Gaza. The Israelli military is against the project partially because population relocation was never a goal of the military operation and some reservists are concerned they could ‘face illegal orders to commit war crimes.’ The former Israeli prime minister has called the city a ‘concentration camp‘ which prompted some to call for his arrest. This is just a look at the outrage to the plan from within Israel.
The defense minister pushing for the camp is reported to have said those inside would only by allowed to leave for another country, again leading many to compare this to a ghetto.
Syria
The civil unrest in Syria reached new levels in July. Over 650 were killed in a single week when tribes backed by the Syrian government restarted fighting with Druze fighters. A ceasefire was called for, but did not hold. One of the spiritual leaders called the government (currently partially backed by the US) a collection of ‘armed gangs’ and vowed to keep fighting.
Israel added to the Syrian violence when they bomber both Damascus and Sweida, targeting the defense ministry and tanks.
Ukraine-Russian War
Another $322 Million in US arms sales was completed in July. Trump has negotiated sales to Ukraine to be funded by NATO. All the push to increase member country contributions is a way for US defense contractors to reap profits from NATO countries which includes contributions by the US. Where do those contributions come from? The taxpayers. The money may be coming from NATO, but indirectly it is coming form NATO country citizen taxpayers. Did you choose to send money to Ukraine over say funding for your local school?
Australia has joined the list of countries providing tanks to Ukraine, in July they sent 49 “retired”, US-made M1A1 Abrams tanks.
“Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbors, but mischief/evil is in their hearts. Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavors: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert. Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, nor the operation of His hands, He shall destroy them, and not build them up.”
Psalm 28:3-5
New and Old Wars
Sudan Civil War
The civil war in Sudan is ongoing and devastating with little news coverage. In July on just one day an estimated 300 people were killed by the RSF (Rapid Support Forces) in the ongoing civil war.
Cambodia and Thai Conflict Erupts
A new conflict started and ended in July, this time between Thailand and Cambodia. Civilians had been warned for a few months to prepare for a military conflict, but when it started many were still in disbelief. What is going on? Similar to the recent battle between Pakistan and India, this Thailand-Cambodia war is about a contested borderland that each claims as their own. But these countries are currently run by ‘Southeast Asia’s most formidable and, until recently, closest aligned families‘ which made this conflict all the more surprising. A leaked phone call between the leaders has led to a personal conflict manifesting into a military skirmish. Thailand carried out airstrikes against Cambodia and both countries launched rockets at each other. This was a war between brothers over lands and profits.
“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
Matthew 24:12
“Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.”
Mark 13:12
“And it shall come to pass in the last days… many people shall come and say, ‘Come, and let us go up to the Mountain of the LORD, to the House of the God of Jacob and He will teach us of His ways, … and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.”
Isaiah 2:2-4
July 4th – Feast day into Mourning
July 4th weekend was a devastating weekend in Texas Hill Country. A massive flash flood raised the level of the Guadalupe River by 26 feet in under 1 hour! The resulting floods took the lives of 1378 people including many children away at a christian summer camp.
This wasn’t the only natural disaster initiated on July 4th. The North Rim of the Grand Canyon was and still is engulfed in the Dragon Bravo Fire. Started on the Fourth of July, this fire has now grown into a ‘megafire’ which means it has exceeded 100,000 acres in size!
July 4th was not just marred with floods and fire, shootings in multiple cities left many dead or injured. As this article points out, ‘July 4th is historically one the the deadliest days of the year in the U.S.’ This year was no exception with five killed in Indianapolis, four in Chicago, six in Philadelphia and five in Fort Worth as just a few examples.
Deaths on the 4th of July are not just from shootings. Fireworks, both legal and illegal, also injure or kill on this holiday weekend. In 2025 a young girl in California was killed by fireworks and many around the US were injured.
“And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God… I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.”
Amos 8:9-10
Madness of Mind
Violence
Violence in July was not limited to the holiday weekend. A mass shooting occurred in New York City when an ex-football player shot and killed four people. The shooter claimed to have CTE (Chronic traumatic encephalopathy), a degenerative brain disease that has been linked to concussions and often associated with football players.
Another shooting at a casino in Reno Nevada resulted in three victims with no apparent connection to the shooter. Meanwhile, in Michigan eleven people were stabbed while shopping in Walmart. The suspect was apprehended and the victims were in either fair or serious condition at the local hospital. The random act of violence may bring charges of terrorism against the suspect.
While all this violence is going on between citizens, the pentagon spent $2.4 trillion over four years to fund war and weapons manufacturing. $2.4 Trillion toward nothing but violence. Are people going mad, following the role model of their leaders or both?
“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.”
Isaiah 9:16
Tribulation
Poisoned by Food and Water
In China, an incident of lead poisoning at a kindergarten school turned into a tale of greed, lies, bribery and over 245 sickened children. A principle asked the kitchen staff to add coloring to the food to make it more attractive in the hopes that more students would attend the school. Instead of using food coloring, ‘industrial grade pigment’, aka paint, was used even though it was labeled as not for consumption. As the scandal unfolded eight people were arrested and memories of previous food poisonings in China were brought to the forefront.
Forever Chemicals
This incident in China is a dreadful and acute event, but there are chronic health issues around the whole world due to the current worldwide food and system. There are toxins such as forever chemicals slowly harming the population as a whole. Just this month a small Swedish town was highlighted as having the worlds worst case of forever chemical pollution. Similarly, a region in France notified residents that drinking the water was now prohibited for children under two years old, pregnant women and people with weak immune systems. A ‘forever pollution’ map has been generated to locate Europe’s polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) of forever chemicals. You can see it here.
In the UK a selection of 117 bodies of water were tested for PFAS’s with 110 exceeding proposed safety limits. Another investigation found that outdated farming regulations are allowing millions of tonnes of treated sewage sludge that contains forever chemical and toxic waste to be spread on farmland. Sewage sludge appears to be ‘black gold’ with high levels of nitrogen and phosphates, but that’s not all it contains. Toxic waste is being put on farmland where food is grown for human consumption.
‘Green’ initiatives and ‘restoration’ projects
The US, similarly, uses treated sewage know to contain forever chemicals to build up wetlands as part of ‘restoration’ projects. But it’s not just wetland projects along the coasts of Louisiana and Florida. Drinking water sources such as a large aquifer in Orange Country, California also use sewage effluent. This aquifer is the source of drinking water for 2.5 million people. What a perfect example of a ‘green initiative’ cloaking what is in reality just pumping toxic waste into the environment and in some cases the drinking water.
The Trump administration has pulled $15 million previously set aside to research PFAS contamination of US farmland. Just as in Europe and the UK, as covered above, the US also allows sewage sludge to be spread on cropland as a fertilizer, regardless of the chemical load that comes along. Here’s a thought. Instead of turning this into a years-long research project, let’s use common sense and just not use poison as ‘fertilizer’ for the food that feeds our children! Consider that just 200 years ago, such pollution that now permeates the food and water supply was unimaginable. Is our advanced modern society really so advanced if it knowingly poisons itself?
Eating Dung
There is a parable in the Book of Ezekiel where God initially commands Ezekiel to eat dung or shit from man. Ezekiel protested and God had him eat cow dung instead. The lesson from this scenario is that the ways, customs and worship practices carried out or consumed by the people is likened to eating bull shit! It is iniquity. Who knew the world would come around to physically eating shit in the form of recycled waste and toxic forever chemicals! The world is fulfilling this prophecy in both spiritually and physically!
“And you shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it with dung that comes out of man, in their sight. And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.”
Ezekiel 4:12-13
Plane Tribulation
Another plane crash, this time in Russia’s far east, killed all 48 passengers and crew. The cause, while still under investigation, is believed to be associated with either human error or the age of the plane. Operating for almost 50 years, this plane was part of a fleet that had yet to be phased out of operation.
In Bangladesh, a military fighter jet crashed into a school campus killing 20 and injuring almost 200. The jet was on a routine training exercise when it hit the private school causing the disaster.
Last months major plane crash in India appears to have been the result of fuel being cut off to the engines. Whether this was sabotage or equipment failure still remains to be determined.
Extreme Weather
Water
July in South Korea is known for monsoon rains and this year was no exception. Flooding and mudslides led to the death of at least seventeen people with many still unaccounted for in the hardest hit regions. Monsoons and glacial melt also impacted Pakistan were flooding has killed at least 72 people. A record setting 119.3F temperature is contributing to the accelerated glacial melt. The mountainous region of India is experiencing a similar catastrophe. So far there have been 23 flash floods and 16 landslides due to ‘unusually heavy rainfall’ over the first weekend of July. Seventy-eight people have died in just this one region of India.
A sudden thunderstorm over a bay in Vietnam caused a tourist boat to capsize. At least thirty-eight people perished in the incident. In a similar incident in Bali at least six Indonesian people perished when a ferry sank in rough seas.
In the US there were the massive Texas floods on July 4th weekend, as covered above, but New Mexico also had flooding. The Rio Ruidoso river rose 20ft over just 1 hour. In addition a ‘State of emergency’ was declared in New Jersey and New York due to heavy rains and flash flooding.
Fire And Heat
Wildfires are burning in Arizona, Greece, Turkey, France and Portugal where almost the entire country was put on high alert for wildfires.
A heatwave in Europe broke records across the region. Schools in France were closed while businesses limited outdoor work in Italy. Spain and Portugal broke temperature records in several regions. Likewise, in England, the hottest June on record occurred this year with many areas expecting to ‘enter drought status’ due to the heat.
Over 185 million people in the US were under heat warnings with many cities surpassing 100F during a weather event called a ‘heat dome’ over much of the country. July is one of the warmest months, and this year was no exception.
For the month of July, Turkey recorded the hottest earth surface temperature at 123F! The coldest temperature was in Antarctica at minus 110F.
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
The 6th largest recorded earthquake ever occurred this July in Russia. The 8.8 magnitude quake prompted Tsunami warnings for much of the Pacific including Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, the West Coast of North and South America and New Zealand. No major damage occurred outside of the immediate earthquake zone. There were several other large earthquakes in July including a 7.4 in Russia and a 7.3 in Alaska which also triggered tsunami warnings. Around the globe there were also a whopping 15 earthquakes with a magnitude 6.0 or greater. The planet is shaking!
“For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.”
Haggai 2:6-7
Earthquakes are often associated with volcanic eruptions and the large 8.8 earthquake in Russia was immediately followed by the eruption of the largest Volcano in the Northern Hemisphere. The Klyuchevskoy Volcano spewed lava and sent ash plumes almost 2 miles above sea level.
A volcano in Iceland erupted along a 1.5 mile long fissure causing the evacuation of a nearby town. This is the ninth eruption of this volcano in the past two years.
World out of Balance
An large algae bloom has devastated the fishing industry in South Australia for three months and counting. An estimated 13,800 animals have died so far in the plague.
“For now disasters have come upon the whole world, and you will stay among them, for God will not deliver you because you have sinned against Him.”
2 Esdras 15:27
Caught in Unawares
“And take heed to yourself, lest at any time your hearts are overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness1“The serpents are the leaders of the peoples and their wine is their ways.” DD 3:19, and cares of this life, and so that day comes upon you in unawareness. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. You watch therefore, and pray always, that you may be able to escape all these things that shall come to pass and to stand before the Son of Adam.”
Luke 21:34-36
