...David and his very best warriors; Bethlehem occupied by the Philistines; David eventually amassing over 200,000 Israelite fighting men--many of exceptional quality--God's approval of what could otherwise be considered as a true insurrection against a legitimate ruler.
A few days ago, I was reading later on, where David was in control of Israel and had ordered a census, which culminated in an angel standing over Jerusalem and David very much fearing God again.
I happened to read about the Gadarene swine in Mark 3 this morning before coming across this piece, which mentions it.
David Clements mentions Michael Cocchini. A quick internet search tells me that they've worked together before, and that a different Michael Cocchini--and a Susan Clements--went fatally missing in the Smoky Mountains. At separate times.
Feels like a rabbit hole.
Much like Jonathan Cahn connects the major demons of ancient Israel to today's United States, Clements says that the spirits of the Nephilim are here and active.

A couple months ago, I put a piece of paper on the fridge--our Scammer Prayer List. We were often getting multiple scam calls per day, and while probably none of them told us their real name, God stills knows who they are and where they live, and He surely has something better for them to do all day than bother people like us.
Two names went onto the list, and these scammers were duly prayed for--they still are--and suddenly the number of scam calls dropped, by a lot. The list still has only two names on it.
