Looking Back to See Ahead
What December taught me—and why I’m even more convinced about what’s coming...
Happy New Year!
Before we step fully into what’s next, I want to pause and do two things in this post:
Revisit December (with humility)—connecting the dots as I saw them
Look back at 2025 (with gratitude)—foundational moments worth celebrating
Because clarity almost always comes after reflection—and because vision is sharpened when we’re willing to look honestly at our journey and learn from the path we’ve traveled.
December: What the Connected Dots Reveal
Several weeks ago, leading up to the end of Hanukkah, I shared a series of thoughts around a possible convergence of dreams, words, and visions on the winter solstice (December 21). The timing felt significant. The symbolism was compelling. And I shared it openly, in real time, as I was processing it.
As you now know, nothing definitive happened that day.
I’ve spent the past ten days sitting with that—praying, reflecting, listening. This morning, on December 31, clarity finally settled in. Interestingly, this is the same day—years ago—when I was given the word about The Tipping Point. December 31 has become a day I intentionally seek the Lord for perspective.
What became clear is simple and freeing:
None of the words I shared had a date attached to them when I received them.
The dots I connected pointed to real things—yet the timeline I shared was my own speculation. I believe God conceals his majesty in the way He speaks; as more is revealed, it’s up to us to continue seeking the deeper meaning.
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the glory of kings is to search it out.
—Proverbs 25:2
What I Actually Saw (And What I Didn’t)
Over Hanukkah, I shared seven words—all recorded during the last six years.
Before I share the details, let me underline one thing: these aren’t tied to a calendar date—they are directional patterns I’ve been tracking. Within them are three recurring themes, drawn from different dreams and visions:
A manufactured market crash where gold and silver ETFs dip sharply
Something occurring on a Sunday that makes buying silver on Monday make sense
An occult ritual tied to Israel and the number 77, occurring sometime between May 2025 and May 2026
December 21 stood out this year for understandable reasons:
The darkest day of the year
A Sunday
A precise 77-year-7-month-7-day marker since Israel became a nation
When the timing seemed to align, it was easy to begin connecting dots—perhaps too quickly. Here’s the honest takeaway: the dots were real, but the timeline was premature.
A Word on Being Human
I’ll be honest—there’s always a temptation, in moments like this, to clean things up. To quietly remove posts. To smooth the edges.
But that’s not how I want to authentically live or write. That’s pride.
I’m comfortable saying: I’m listening. I’m learning. I’m refining.
That doesn’t disqualify vision—it deepens it.
I realized part of my hesitation was a quiet attempt to protect God’s reputation. Jesus never asked anyone to do that. And historically, those who see ahead are rarely applauded in the moment anyway—visionaries are often understood best in hindsight.
So I’m not backing away from what I heard.
I’m simply releasing the need to force it onto a calendar.
What I Still Believe Is Ahead
Now, more than ever, I am confident in what I have received. He’s filled me with peace when I re-examine the words I’ve stewarded. Many of the words yet to be shared will blow your mind when they come to pass.
It’s humbling to hear God’s voice so clearly. I recognize it as a precious gift, so I will continue to listen and share when appropriate. I trust there is a reason for it all.
Despite being incorrect about the 2025 date, these themes remain clear to me:
We will see a manufactured market disruption affecting gold and silver ETFs.
We will see something take place on a Sunday that creates an opportunity to invest in silver on a Monday (although I want to reiterate that never did I hear the Sunday-Monday-Tuesday were consecutive days—I just assume that).
We will see a blatant, occult ritual linked to Israel and the number 77 that will expose three global powers. When I share Book 77, it will amaze you! God is so precise in how He speaks.
When these moments arrive, they will speak for themselves.
Cogs in the Wheel
A vision I often come back to is one of literal “cogs on a wheel”—each event waiting its turn to engage.
I see the sequence of events I’ve been shown as cogs on a gearwheel. For years I’ve seen the gears, yet they slip past one another and don’t spin—yet. Every year, I am gifted additional glimpses about future events that will transpire. Discernment tells me that The Tipping Point is the first cog on the gearwheel to catch.
Once it does, I will have much more to say.
Looking Back to See Ahead:
2025 in Perspective
Now for the fun part.
2025 was a full year—foundational and deeply formative. Here are the highlights:
Ouachita Mountains: Trekked 30 miles through southwest Arkansas with a group of mentors from Austin—a journey of guidance, endurance, and camaraderie.
Passover Seder: Hosted 70 people for a joy-filled Passover experience with Simka Foundation—a powerful reminder of gathering, tradition, and shared faith.
Worship in the Texas State Capitol: Began an effort to bring weekly worship under the dome—planting seeds for a vision that will unfold in the year ahead.
Appalachian Trail: Hiked more than 2,000 miles from Georgia to Maine—four and half months of movement, discipline, and renewed perspective.
New Patent Filing: Filed my first provisional patent since stepping away from that world in 2018—establishing a new milestone of innovation and focus.
The Bible Calendar: Designed a beautiful resource featuring art from Israel—helping people clarify their calendar so they can see how they fit in God’s story.
The Echoes Bible: Designed three covers for a book series launched by a friend—helping believers to “read the Bible again for the first time”.
When I step back with fresh eyes, I don’t see a year of spectacle.
I see a year of firm foundation.
I am expectant for the year ahead.
Closing the Year, Looking Forward
If there’s a theme I’m carrying into the new year, it’s this:
Vision isn’t about being early—it’s about being faithful. And faithfulness positions us for what’s next—not by rushing events, but by standing ready.
Sometimes that means speaking.
Sometimes it means waiting.
Sometimes it means adjusting without losing conviction.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for walking with me on this journey called life.
I appreciate your insightful comments and continued support.
Let’s see what unfolds next—with curiosity, courage, and lots of joy along the way.
Here’s to 2026—a year we pick up sticks and build something meaningful together!
I’m Gr8ful.
