Those is power continue to broadcast their beliefs.  Generally, the rule is: “Follow the money”.  President Obama announced his MyRA plan for people with little or no savings to begin a retirement plan.  This plan would invest in U.S. Government Bonds.  Someone besides the Federal Reserve needs to buy them.  China and other countries have discontinued their accumulation of these bonds.  The Federal Reserve creates money out of nothing, then buys nearly all of the new issues of debt.  If you or I did this, it would be fraud.

The spy agencies continue acquiring new technology to improve their monitoring of all of us.  As I posted this week, the technology to stop vehicles remotely is in place.  GM has been doing it for years.  Before long, they will want to install “heart monitors” to track your every move.  If you break one of their laws, a click of a button would incapacitate you.  How handy!  Why all the control measures?  They are expecting economic chaos ahead.  They have built a fiat currency system over a 100 year experiment that worked for a while but is now unraveling just like all the other historic attempts.  Rome couldn’t sustain a similar system once they began to eliminate the precious metal standard.  Once again, history repeats itself… but with more technology to control the masses.

The BRICS countries continue their accumulation of gold reserves in anticipation of the economic collapse of the Dollar.  Agents of the current reserve currency continue to manipulate the price of both gold and silver so as not to alert the public of the impending disaster.  More and more investors are starting to view gold as an insurance policy.  I include silver in this category for the rest of us.

It would be advisable to continue keeping extra food on hand, rotating your inventory in order to keep everything as fresh as possible.  Remember how American companies embraced “Just In Time” inventory management where they reduced their warehouse inventory?  Food chains embraced that theory as well.  This is why an interruption in the supply chain could cause a food shortage in just a few days.  Recent natural disasters pointed out that very fact when we saw empty shelves at the local grocery stores.

Nobody but Our Heavenly Father knows how the future will play out.  The system is too complex for those in power to control.  When the bond market bubble finally bursts, there will by crying in the pillows by those who lost their financial security.  This will trickle down to a time of desperation for many.  Our Heavenly Father continues to prepare HIS sons and daughters to take up the slack when the results of men’s lawlessness comes into full light.  The greatest preparatory steps one can take are to grow spiritually and set aside every weight that so easily besets us.  Establish closer relationships with others as well.  We are all in this together.

Coming to a country near you.  Classic cars are looking better every day!

I pay close attention to those who have a proven track record, aka fruitfulness.  Fruitfulness indicates that the person is operating in their calling.  Richard Russell is an investment newsletter writer with over six decades of experience.  In a recent interview, he is quoted as saying:

“Over the past weeks I have instructed subscribers to stay on the sidelines and watch history unfold.  My advice is to stay out of this bear market and hold only gold bullion and a limited supply of US dollars.  I think we are watching history in the making, and it is far better to watch it than to be part of it.”

Richard does not answer to Wall Street, the Fed, or any other entity.  His primary concern is for future generations and has seen this scenario play out before in previous bear markets.  Many other investment writers were not yet born when he was experiencing past bear market patterns.

Central Banks around the world continue to intervene in global financial markets.  2008 was the year of warning.  Even Vice President Biden admitted to the imminent meltdown of financial markets by stating that they were considering martial law.  Ludwig von Mises (www,mises.org)  coined the term "crack-up boom" to describe the abandonment of a fiat currency to relieve the pressure of the liabilities associated with that currency.  When a government debases a currency, they effectively relieve immediate pressure on the currency.  Those holding the currency end up losing value.

Hyper-inflation occurs when there is a loss of trust.  It is a state of mind.  The value of the U.S. Dollar is based on trust that the Federal Government will continue to honor its debts and properly manage the money supply.  However, it is well established that the economic indicators are now heavily manipulated.  Why?  They want to maintain the illusion that “all is well” with the economy.  All of the numbers are manipulated toward the optimistic side, none show that the underlying situation is worse.  It is clear that there is intent behind the manipulation and it is not by accident.  With interest rates at zero, who benefits?  The banks, the U.S. Government securities representing the excessive debt, and consumers who continue to leverage up.  Who are the losers?  Savers, the elderly on Social Security, pension funds holding bonds for future payments, and other countries who hold U.S. Dollars.

When will the masses lose trust in the U.S. Dollar and other fiat currencies?  Only Our Heavenly Father knows.  I have heard predictions for each year since 2008.  None go past 2025.  There is a lot of focus on 2014 to 2016.  I view each year that the loss of trust doesn’t happen as an opportunity for the readers of this blog to prepare by eliminating debt, reducing complexity, minimizing ongoing expenses, and most of all spiritually preparing for the ensuing chaos that is to surely come when the epic bubble finally bursts.

What about healthcare?  I am expecting an impartation from Heaven of an anointing to heal based on a foundation of Love.  In the past decades, the church has only averaged about 5% success rate of healing through prayer and the laying on of hands.  I expect that to change.  The difference will be in the motivation behind the healing.  When the revelation of Love is the motivating force, more will be healed.  Cancer, heart disease, and chronic illness will be dealt with at their spiritual roots rather than just managing their symptoms.  When Jesus walked the earth, there was not a massive infrastructure for healthcare.  He went about and healed all.  Isn’t it time that we expect to do the same?  This epic bubble will surely burst and cause a disintegration of a fragile infrastructure that was destined to fail.  The American Cancer Society’s “War on Cancer” has been going on for decades without a broad solution to the disease.  Jesus had the solution 2,000 years ago.  However, it is based on Love, not the dollar.  Think about it!

My good friend sent me this report and it is available for public reading at:  http://www.tullettprebon.com/documents/strategyinsights/tpsi_009_perfect_storm_009.pdf

If you read this report, you will note that its main arguments have been covered in several of our blogs over the last five years:

The end of an era : a disastrous experiment with globalisation

The massaging of data to the point where economic trends are obscured

The implosion of the credit super-cycle

Out-of-control debt

Policies have been blind-sided by distorted data.  The reliable information which policymakers and the public need if effective solutions are to be found is not available. Economic data (including inflation, growth, GDP and unemployment) has been subjected to incremental distortion, whilst information about government spending, deficits and debt is extremely misleading.

The decaying growth dynamic: Population growth cannot be sustained indefinitely in the current infrastructure.

The mainstream investors are now coming to the realization of the fragility of the current system.  I suspect that they will begin deploying their investment to protect the value of the investment over short-sided returns.  Oil, gas, gold, silver, agri-land, and other hard assets are all possibilities.

The writers of this article clearly grasp the big picture.

When you put money in the bank, you become an unsecured creditor.  That position does not necessarily allow you to pull out cash at any time.  Your money isn’t sitting idle in a bank vault.  They take possession and utilize it for their needs.  Additionally, you fall under their rules and regulations for disbursements.  They can limit your withdrawals.  They report any sizable cash withdrawals to the federal authorities.  Let’s face it, your money is not really yours, totally.  Once in the bank, you have “managed” access to it.  The current system insures that it keeps control using the legal contract you signed on your signature card.  Yep, it’s all legal.  Maybe not righteous, but it is legal.  See: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-25861717

By the way, HSBC has branches in the U.S.  Isn’t it great that we have become a “world” community without borders?

Large multi-national corporations are in business to make a profit and there is nothing wrong with profit.  It is a Biblical principle to generate a profit.  The problem arises when you inject some form of lawlessness into the equation.  Suddenly, the profit becomes tainted and has unrighteousness attached to it.  It becomes accountable to spiritual powers of this world.  Death and destruction soon follow.  The Bible provides us with many examples of men being moved by the powers of darkness and Jesus found it necessary to be tempted by the devil himself in order to fulfill His calling.  If you discount the fact that these powers are still present, you will probably be blindsided.  Your ignorance of their power and authority does not change the reality of their impact around the globe.  Our Heavenly Father has raised up men and women to deal with the claims of these spiritual powers in the “Heavenly” court system.  They are intercessors.

The Kingdom of Heaven is a rather simple and straightforward system.  Jesus provided us with many examples of this.  In fact, He likened the Kingdom to small children in that it was not complicated.  We are to come as little children, simply.  On the flipside, the other kingdom is highly complex and hardly anyone can fully understand how it works.  The more complex, the better.  This system exalts some people over the multitudes, as though they are entitled to walk around adorned in jewels while others are washing their clothes in the local streams.  Fiat currency supports this disparity.

Fiat currency allows those in power to manipulate value to their benefit.  It is designed to exploit the weak.  After all, what can they do about it?  The masses walk around predisposed with their latest smart phone and “Apps” to keep them busy.  I was in another country recently where the standard of living was notably low.  Many people lived in “shanties” of wood and corrugated steel, yet they had their cell phone and satellite dish hooked up to the TV.  The technology is a means to keep them in bondage.

What happens when the fiat currency system begins to weaken?  Multi-national corporations will immediately respond and move into “protect” mode.  You could say that they are the canary in the coal mine in the currency exchange market.  If they see a sudden devaluation in the value of the goods and/or services, they will immediately respond.  What happens when a multi-national corporation quits taking your local currency?  It can get ugly quick.  See: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/airlines-halt-ticket-sales-venezuela-210753054–finance.html

This would suggest that those who travel abroad might want to carry a couple of gold coins in their pocket, just in case.  Do you think the authorities are going to give you notice when there is an imminent currency crisis coming?  The public will be the last to know.  Who knows before the authorities?  Our Heavenly Father.  HE is not restricted to time.  This is why I find it imperative that we all should press in to have the closest of relationships with HIM.  HE will navigate us through the changes that lie ahead.  In the complex system we live in today, there is nobody else who can insure our well-being.

By the way,  the U.S. continues to add new “currency controls” in a rather subtle fashion.  After all, the current fiat system is all about “control”.  See: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/venezuela-cuts-dollar-allowance-florida-151019655.html

As we mature in our understanding and knowledge in matters of the greatest importance, we will begin to instruct others who will seek out answers in the current economic system.  The current system differs from the Roaring 20’s in that we have a more integrated infrastructure now.  Back then, you did not have millions of automobiles on the highway, planes in the air, and trains transporting goods imported from across the globe.  This is a primary factor why we can have such high unemployment without interruption in goods and services.  The primary problem now is that this infrastructure masks the problem to policymakers.  When you enter the Port of Miami, you see the hustle and bustle of activity, the gleaming skyscrapers in the background, and the normal traffic jams on the expressways.  Only a few short blocks away, you do not see the poverty and those surviving on government transfer payments.

The macroeconomic picture has not improved.  The debt continues to grow, interest rates continue to be manipulated to zero, and the unemployment continues at over 20%:

Remember, John Williams is using raw government statistics for this comparison.  When you have economists inserting their bias into raw numbers, you can see they want to paint a rosy picture to support their views.  This illusion cannot and will not be sustained indefinitely.  When the “books” are finally reconciled,  expect a mass of people to be searching for answers.  Their dreams will have been destroyed, their hearts will be filled with fear, and they will be angry.  It will be needful for those who are being prepared to serve up some “good” fruit.  It is imperative that we continue our maturing process as the current system grows weaker by the day.  Someone will be called upon to direct those in despair to return to a state of true values.  Jesus was empowered to feed those who were hungry.  Rest assured, that power is still available to those who will be prepared to utilize it in a lawful and Loving manner.

We at Servias Ministries will continue our efforts to minister life, Love, and instruction for the purpose of maturing our brethren.  We believe unity brings forth strength in times of chaos and transition.  Division is designed to keep you weak.  Promote unity, we are!
