1 ) Zechariah 12:3 became a blunt reality on December 23 . This was the day the U . N . Security Council voted unanimously to come against Israel . America abstained which is essentially voting with the other members . She symbolically became the world ' s burdensome stone . This was initiated and instigated by the President of the United States which means terrible repercussions are coming to this land . So Israel is to return to 1967 " Auschwitz " borders . The holy city of Jerusalem becomes " occupied territory ." And Israel is further isolated and alienated as predicted .

6 ) Israel struck Damascus in early December , targeting some weapons . This is a precursor to what is predicted in Isaiah 17:1 .
7 ) God continues to intervene for His sovereign nation of Israel . In November , he sent a pillar of a cloud of dust and rain to push back
ISIS on Israel ' s border . See it here . He who keeps Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps ( Psalm 121 ). The cloud of dust and rain stayed right at the border and did not cross into Israel .
8 ) There was stage-setting for the Tribulation ' s natural disasters which will be far worse than anything the world has known thus far . Publications called many events " record setting ," " unprecedented ," and " of biblical proportion ." The Bible calls them " birth pangs ."
9 ) The war on cash intensified . A few nations are banning cash and this will eventually lead to " Mark of the Beast " accounting . Technology was introduced that enables the total payment of goods and services using only an embedded chip .
