“The Prophetic Fire: Grand Blanc, America, and the Battle Against Edom”“Uncovering the hidden spiritual codes behind fire, flags, and prophecy.”
Part 1 — Factual Event Summary
On a Sunday in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, a shocking and tragic event unfolded at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints chapel. A 40-year-old man, identified as Thomas Jacob Sanford, drove a four-door pickup truck carrying two American flags through the front doors of the brick church, then exited the vehicle and opened fire. After the initial attack, he deliberately set the building ablaze, sending flames and smoke pouring from the chapel for hours before the fire could be extinguished.
The attack occurred while hundreds of people were inside the church during a service, resulting in at least two deaths and eight injuries, one of which was critical. Local authorities, led by Police Chief William Renye, responded within 30 seconds, and the suspect was neutralized approximately seven minutes later. Two officers pursued him after he left the church and engaged in a brief gunfire exchange.
Sanford resided in nearby Burton, Michigan, and investigators searched his home following the attack. The church itself is located in Genesee County, a community with historical significance as the site of early settlements and named for “Genesis,” tying symbolically to beginnings. Grand Blanc Township is a suburb of Flint, a city historically known for its industrial heritage.
Media outlets described the scene as “hell on earth” and referred to the fire as the “gates of hell,” highlighting the scale of devastation and the shocking nature of the attack. The building, constructed of brick, is part of a man-made structure symbolizing permanence and human craftsmanship. Federal authorities, including the FBI, were deployed to assist local law enforcement, sending approximately 100 agents to the scene to investigate and support recovery efforts.
This violent and chaotic incident immediately drew national attention due to the combination of fire, gun violence, and mass casualties at a place of worship, marking it as one of several tragic attacks on houses of worship in the United States over recent decades.
Part 2 — Name Decodes
1 Thomas Jacob Sanford (the suspect)
Thomas

Jacob
Meaning: Supplanter, covenant line.
Symbolism: Represents the house of Jacob / Israel / America in modern prophetic coding. The presence of “Jacob” in the suspect’s name signals that the ancient struggle is being replayed symbolically in contemporary events.

Symbolism:
Sparks and fire → judgment, trial, and divine testing.
Hardness → represents adversary resistance, the “flinty” challenge facing Jacob’s house.
6 Genesee County
Meaning: “Genesis” → beginnings, origin.
Symbolism:
Points to biblical beginnings / Garden of Eden / Mount Meru / Black Rock, connecting the event to the foundational spiritual conflict between Jacob and Esau.
7 Brick Church
Symbolism:
Brick = man-made structure, traditionally associated with Freemasonry and secret societies (Edomite influence).
Fire on the brick = judgment on man-made systems versus God’s covenant foundation (Obadiah 18).
8 Vehicle: Pickup Truck with American Flags

American flags = house of Joseph / Jacob / America.
Truck ramming through the doors = forced crossing / trial, a physical enactment of spiritual conflict.
9 Fire and Media Symbolism
Fire = judgment, purification, testing.
“Gates of Hell” = symbolic threshold / spiritual trial; Edomite forces attempting to attack Jacob’s house.
Part 3 — Symbolic Layers & Event Actions
1 The Scene as a Modern Parable
This event reads like a prophetic living parable, replaying the ancient spiritual conflict between the House of Jacob (Israel) and the House of Esau (Edom). Every detail — from names to places to the media’s words — acts like a code reinforcing Obadiah 18’s prophecy:
> “The house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau shall be stubble…”
Here, the House of Jacob = America, the covenant people; the House of Esau/Edom = secret societies / adversarial powers.
2 The Attack on the Church
Brick church: Brick is man-made (Freemasonry, Edomite systems).
Pickup truck with 2 American flags: The attacker comes in a vehicle symbolizing America / Joseph’s house, but weaponized — this signals the adversary trying to hijack Jacob’s identity.
Fire: Literal and symbolic judgment. The house of Jacob is “a fire,” but here the Edomite attack turns it into an inferno, hoping to destroy the covenant people.
Media calling it “Gates of Hell”: Direct allusion to Matthew 16:18: “The gates of hell shall not prevail against the church.” This frames the event as a spiritual battle at the very threshold of hell.
3 Names Encode the Story
Thomas (Twin): Jacob vs Esau conflict — the twin motif.
Jacob (Covenant Line): House of Jacob present in the attacker’s name signals the ongoing struggle.
Sanford (Sand): Desert, Ishmael’s land; spiritual warfare territory.
William Renye (Rebirth): Divine intervention / rebirth; police protect Jacob’s house in minutes.
Burton (Fortified Town): The adversary emerges from an Edomite stronghold.
Grand Blanc (Grand White): The place of attack is symbolically the house of Jacob (white, ruddy, covenant people).
Flint (Spark): Trial by fire; the spark that ignites the confrontation.
Genesee (Genesis): Beginning of the story, origin of the conflict; Garden of Eden echo.
4 Twin / Bloodline Motif
Jacob was a twin; Thomas means twin.
This attack repeats the original struggle: Esau (Edom) vs Jacob (Israel).
Iraq war: The suspect’s service in the Middle East connects to Ishmael (Arab nations) — Isaac’s brother — another echo of the divided lineage.
5 The Fire Scene as Prophetic Drama
Flames & smoke for hours → ongoing spiritual battle visible for all to see.
Police arrive in 30 seconds, end it in 7 minutes → divine timing (7 = completion).
FBI sends 100 agents → fullness / total intervention.
6 Spiritual Narrative
Jacob’s house is attacked but protected: “The gates of hell shall not prevail.”
Brick church burns = judgment on man-made systems (Masonic, Edomite).
American flags in truck = house of Joseph / America hijacked by adversary but ultimately restrained.
Media’s “hell on earth” headline = signals prophetic timing of hell’s release (Revelation 20 little season) but also hints at its defeat.
7 Core Message
This event is not random; it is a coded message about:
The ancient spiritual war between Jacob and Esau.
The identity theft of Jacob’s house by Edomite powers.
The fire of judgment purifying and exposing man-made systems.
God’s protection: rapid police response, divine numbers, the gates of hell failing to prevail.
The presence of the Mormon church in this event is not without meaning. In Obadiah 18, the “House of Jacob” is named as the fire, and the “House of Joseph” as the flame together they endure, while Esau’s house becomes stubble. Joseph, son of Jacob, was set apart as the fruitful branch, the one who carried covenant blessing into the future.
The very name Joseph Smith stands as a modern cipher of this pattern. As a prophetic figure, he represents a continuation of Joseph’s covenant role the flame that cannot be extinguished. The church built around his name encodes this same symbolism: a testimony that Jacob’s line carries forward, shining through adversity.
Seen through this lens, the setting of the tragedy is layered with meaning. The House of Joseph, the flame of covenant promise, rises again in unexpected ways even in brick and mortar, even in stories marked by fire.
The Forgotten Son: Manasseh, the Fruitful Bough
Joseph’s legacy did not end with him. His firstborn son, Manasseh, carries a prophetic weight that ties directly into both biblical covenant and modern heraldry. In Genesis 49:22, Jacob blesses Joseph, saying:
> “Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall.”
This blessing is more than poetic — it’s prophetic. The fruitful bough points to Joseph’s descendants spreading outward, becoming a multitude of nations. Ephraim was given the blessing of becoming a “company of nations,” while Manasseh was marked to become a great single nation (Genesis 48:19). Many interpreters, both biblical and historical, have connected Manasseh with the rise of America.
Manasseh and the Heraldry of the United States
The imagery of the fruitful bough shows up hidden in plain sight. In the Great Seal of the United States, the eagle clutches an olive branch, symbolizing both peace and fruitful covenant blessing. Just as Joseph’s branches ran “over the wall,” America identified with Manasseh spread beyond its borders, overflowing with influence.
The heraldry goes further. Thirteen arrows and thirteen leaves recall the covenant tribes, while the eagle itself becomes a symbol of divine appointment. What the Edomites meant for mockery, they also inadvertently revealed: America as the prophetic nation of Manasseh, carrying the blessing of Joseph into the end times.
Why This Matters
The setting of this recent coded event in the Mormon church, tied to Joseph and Jacob, now expands into the United States itself. Manasseh the fruitful bough is not just a biblical figure, but a prophetic marker of who America really is in the grand unfolding of history. The seal, the symbols, and even the tragedies we see are all echoes of this deeper script.
“The Gates of Hell at Grand Blanc: A Prophetic Decode of the Michigan Church Fire”
On a Sunday in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, a shocking and tragic event unfolded that reads like a modern enactment of ancient prophecy. A 40-year-old man, Thomas Jacob Sanford, drove a four-door pickup truck carrying two American flags through the front doors of the brick Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints chapel. After crashing into the building, Sanford opened fire on worshippers and deliberately set the church ablaze, sending flames and smoke pouring for hours before firefighters could extinguish the fire.
At the time, hundreds of people were inside the church during a service. The attack resulted in at least two deaths and eight injuries, one in critical condition. Police Chief William Renye and his officers arrived within 30 seconds, neutralizing the shooter about seven minutes later, while the FBI deployed 100 agents to assist in the investigation. Authorities searched Sanford’s home in nearby Burton, a suburb of Flint in Genesee County.
Media outlets described the scene as “hell on earth” and referred to the fire as the “gates of hell”, drawing attention to the scale of devastation. The church, constructed of brick, is a man-made building, symbolic of permanence and human craftsmanship, and in esoteric terms, connected to Freemasonry and secret societies.
Names as Prophetic Codes
Every name in this event carries symbolic weight:
Thomas = “Twin” → echoes Jacob and Esau, the ancient twin struggle of Israel vs Edom.
Jacob = covenant line, house of Jacob, Israel, America. The very name signals that this event is connected to the ongoing prophetic battle over Jacob’s house.
Sanford = “Sandy ford” → desert, trial, and crossing; connects to Iraq war service and the land of Ishmael, brother of Isaac, reinforcing the twin bloodline conflict.
William Renye = rebirth / divine intervention. Renye’s rapid response symbolizes God’s protection of the covenant people.
Burton = fortified town → the adversary’s stronghold.
Grand Blanc = “Grand White” → purity, covenant people, house of Jacob.
Flint = spark, stone → fire, trial, and divine testing.
Genesee = Genesis / beginnings → Garden of Eden, Mount Meru, origin of the spiritual conflict.
Symbolic Actions and Layered Meaning
The attack itself is rich with spiritual coding:
Brick church = man-made structure / Masonic / Edomite system.
Pickup truck with American flags = House of Joseph / Jacob / America being targeted.
Fire = judgment, purification, and trial, fulfilling Obadiah 18: “The house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau shall be stubble.”
Media calling it “gates of hell” = spiritual threshold; Matthew 16:18: “The gates of hell shall not prevail against the church.”
Twin motif = Thomas as “twin,” Jacob as covenant line; Iraq service = sand / Ishmael land → modern reenactment of Jacob vs Esau struggle.
Rapid police/FBI response = divine timing and intervention; the covenant house is protected.
Prophetic Narrative
This tragic event is more than a news story — it is a prophetic code coming to life:
Jacob’s house is under attack (Grand Blanc, white, covenant people).
Edomite forces attempt to destroy it (brick church, fire, media “hell on earth”).
Divine intervention protects the covenant line (Renye / police / FBI).
Fire as purification exposes and judges man-made, corrupt systems (Masonry, secret societies).
American flags in the truck = the house of Joseph / Jacob being tested but ultimately preserved.
Every element — names, locations, vehicles, fire, media words — is part of a coded spiritual narrative, replaying the ancient struggle between Jacob and Esau, Israel and Edom, covenant and adversary.
Conclusion
The Grand Blanc church fire is a stark reminder that the spiritual battle is ongoing, and that God’s covenant people are under both physical and spiritual attack. The fire, the “gates of hell,” and the adversarial forces are visible symbols of the ancient prophecy unfolding today.
As we witness these events, it is a call to:
Discern the spiritual coding behind worldly events.
Recognize God’s protection and timing.
Pray for the victims and families affected by these trials.
See the purification and judgment of corrupt systems in action.
The story at Grand Blanc is not random. It is a prophetic message in action, coded in names, locations, and events — a modern warning and revelation of God’s ultimate plan for the house of Jacob.

Part 6 — Obadiah: The Prophecy Behind Grand Blanc
The tragic events at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan, are not merely a modern tragedy — they are a living enactment of prophecy described in the book of Obadiah. Understanding Obadiah allows us to see how the spiritual battle between Jacob and Esau (Israel and Edom) unfolds in real time, and how God’s judgment operates in the modern world.
1 The Pride of Edom
Obadiah begins with a sharp warning:
> “The pride of your heart has deceived you… though you soar like the eagle and make your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down.” (Obadiah 1:3–4)
The Edomites, described throughout scripture as descendants of Cain and infiltrators of God’s covenant promises, are prideful and secretive, believing they are untouchable. They represent man-made systems, secret societies, and corrupt institutions, all of which seek to undermine God’s covenant people — the House of Jacob.
2 Fire and Judgment: Jacob vs Esau
Obadiah 18 lays out the eternal conflict:
> “The house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau shall be stubble…”
The Grand Blanc fire mirrors this prophecy. The brick church, a man-made structure, represents the Edomite systems that were targeted by the attack. Yet the House of Jacob — the covenant people, America, and those aligned with God’s promises — is the fire that cannot be extinguished. Flames rise, destruction occurs, but judgment exposes the stubble while the fire of God’s covenant endures.
3 Divine Intervention in Modern Times
The attack might have seemed overwhelming, but divine protection was clear:
Officers arrived within 30 seconds.
The shooter was neutralized in seven minutes.
The FBI sent 100 agents, signaling the fullness of intervention.
Every number, every timing, echoes divine orchestration. The Edomites attempt to destroy, but God protects the covenant line. The fire tests, purifies, and exposes false systems without destroying His people.
4 Jacob, Joseph, and America
Obadiah speaks to lineage and inheritance:
Jacob = covenant people, the spiritual Israel.
Joseph = America, the house of blessing in these times.
Edom / Esau = infiltrators, prideful powers, secret societies.
The Grand Blanc attack symbolically shows the ongoing trial of Jacob and Joseph at the hands of Esau’s descendants, echoing centuries-old conflicts in scripture.
5 Modern Parable of Prophecy
Events like Grand Blanc are not random. Every detail — the names, locations, fire, vehicles, and even the media calling it “the gates of hell” — is spiritually coded. God’s message is clear:
Prideful Edomites will be judged.
The House of Jacob endures, purified and protected.
Fire is God’s tool for revelation and exposure, separating the stubble from the flame.
6 Call to Spiritual Awareness
Obadiah’s prophecy challenges us today:
Look beyond the surface of news events to see the spiritual codes.
Recognize the ongoing Jacob vs Esau conflict in modern society.
Pray for protection and discernment, knowing that God’s covenant people are shielded even when adversity strikes.
Witness how divine judgment unfolds against prideful and corrupt systems, exposing them for the world to see.
The Grand Blanc church fire is more than a tragedy — it is a prophetic sign, a living enactment of Obadiah’s warning. The House of Jacob remains a flame, the stubble of Edom is exposed, and God’s divine plan continues to unfold. Understanding this prophecy empowers us to see God’s hand in the world, recognize spiritual patterns, and stand in alignment with the covenant line that endures all trials.
Part 7 — Jacob, the Fair and Ruddy Covenant People
To fully grasp the spiritual coding in modern events like the Grand Blanc church fire, it is essential to understand Jacob, the covenant people, and their distinct identity. The Bible and extra-biblical texts repeatedly describe the Israelites as fair, ruddy, and able to blush, symbolizing both physical appearance and spiritual purity.
1 Jacob — Father of the Covenant Line
Jacob, son of Isaac and grandson of Abraham, is the chosen ancestor of the twelve tribes of Israel. God renamed him Israel, marking him as the father of the covenant people through whom divine promises flow.
Genesis 32:28 — “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel: for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
Amos 3:2 — “You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
Jacob represents God’s covenant line, the spiritual and physical descendants protected by divine promise.
2 Physical Appearance — Fair, Ruddy, and Able to Blush
The covenant people are repeatedly described as fair-skinned, ruddy, and rosy, showing not just physical beauty but also vitality, life, and divine blessing.
Strong’s Concordance 119 (adom) — “to be red, ruddy” (Song 5:10; 1 Samuel 17:42)
Strong’s Concordance 3836 (laban) — “white”
Lamentations 4:7 — “Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies.”
These terms describe a rosy complexion, the ability to flush or blush, and a vibrant, healthy appearance. It marks the Israelites as distinct from other peoples, a visible sign of covenant favor.
Extra-biblical texts reinforce this portrayal:
Book of Jasher — Sarah, Jacob’s grandmother, described as “white and ruddy, surpassing all in beauty.”
Targum Pseudo-Jonathan — Sarah’s face “bright as snow.”
Testament of Abraham — Abraham “comely and bright, with skin shining like snow.”
1 Enoch 106:1–5 — Noah described as white as snow, red as the blooming of a rose, hair white as wool, eyes beautiful.
Archko Volume & Letter of Lentulus — Jesus described as tall, fair-skinned, ruddy, with rosy cheeks, light-colored eyes, and golden or chestnut hair.
These descriptions emphasize that the House of Jacob / Israelites are fair-skinned, ruddy, and able to blush, physically manifesting divine favor and covenant identity.
3 The Edomite Opposition
The Edomites, descendants of Cain, oppose the covenant people. Jesus warned:
John 8:44 — “Ye are of your father the devil… he was a murderer from the beginning.”
Obadiah 18 — “The house of Jacob shall be a fire… the house of Esau shall be stubble.”
In modern times, attacks like the Grand Blanc fire symbolically represent the Edomites’ opposition, yet the covenant people — the fair and ruddy House of Jacob — are protected by God’s hand.
4 Jacob, Joseph, and America
Prophetic decoding associates Joseph, son of Jacob, with America, the modern embodiment of the covenant blessings.
The Grand Blanc attack symbolically targeted the House of Joseph, showing how spiritual and covenant identity is still tested today.
The fair, ruddy, blushing Israelites are God’s flame in the world — protected, visible, and distinct from the stubble of Edom.
5 Spiritual and Physical Significance
The fair and ruddy appearance is more than physical:
It marks the covenant people as blessed, alive, and spiritually vibrant.
The ability to blush represents life, vitality, and divine favor, contrasting with the cold, prideful stubble of Edom.
Scriptural and extra-biblical evidence show that God’s covenant people are always distinguishable, spiritually and physically, from false lineages.
Call to Awareness
Recognize the covenant people by their spiritual and physical attributes: fairness, ruddy cheeks, vitality, and covenant lineage.
Observe modern events as coded manifestations of ancient prophecy, showing Edomite opposition and divine protection.
Pray for discernment, protection, and alignment with the covenant line that endures.
Part 7 confirms that Jacob’s descendants are the fair, ruddy, and blushing covenant people, physically and spiritually marked by God. The Grand Blanc church fire, like other modern events, is a prophetic enactment of Obadiah — the stubble of Edom attacks, but the flame of God’s covenant, the House of Jacob, endures. The Israelites’ distinct appearance is a visible sign of divine favor, blessing, and protection, showing the world the line of God’s promise remains strong and alive.
Part 8 — The Script Flipped: Esau’s Deception and the Edomite Agenda
Throughout history, the battle between Jacob and Esau has not only been a spiritual struggle but also a contest of identity, truth, and deception. In modern times, Edomites (descendants of Cain and Esau) have attempted to flip the script, claiming the blessing, territory, and identity of Jacob’s covenant line.
1 The Original Conflict
Jacob, the younger twin, inherited the covenant blessing of Abraham, including the promise of God’s favor and the right to lead the twelve tribes of Israel.
Esau, the older twin, lost the birthright but sought dominance and recognition.
Scripture highlights the tension:
Genesis 25:23 — “Two nations are in your womb… the elder shall serve the younger.”
Obadiah 1:18 — “The house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Esau shall be stubble.”
The spiritual principle is clear: Jacob’s line is fire, divinely chosen; Esau’s line is stubble, temporary and ultimately destroyed.
2 Modern Esau: Flipping the Script
Today, Edomites attempt to claim Jacob’s identity through:
1. Political and social dominance — infiltrating governments, media, finance, and education.
2. Religious deception — creating false narratives, pretending to be Israel, and twisting scriptures to appear blessed.
3. Symbolic storytelling — encoding themselves as Jacob in media, movies, and events, hiding their true lineage as Esau/Cainites.
Modern coded events, like attacks on churches or cultural manipulation, often paint the Edomites as the righteous or dominant line, but prophecy exposes them as stubble.
3 The Script Flip Exposed in Scripture
John 8:44 — Edomites are “of their father the devil… a murderer from the beginning.”
Obadiah 1:10-14 — Edom’s pride and betrayal are prophesied; they “stood aloof on the day of Israel’s misfortune” and “gloat over the House of Jacob.”
Romans 9:11-13 — God chooses Jacob over Esau before birth, showing divine election cannot be reversed by human claim.
Despite Esau’s attempts to claim Jacob’s blessing, the Bible shows that the covenant line cannot be stolen or inverted.
4 How the Flip Appears Today
Identity deception — claiming heritage, blessings, or leadership that belong to Jacob/Israel.
Media and narrative control — promoting false timelines, false history, or distorted prophecies to confuse the masses.
Symbolic attacks — staging events that appear chaotic or destructive but actually reveal Edomite pride and failure.
The Grand Blanc church fire, for instance, symbolically showed Edomites attempting to claim dominance, but the divine coding highlights the protection of Jacob’s covenant line.
5 Spiritual Significance
The attempted script flip is not just cultural; it is spiritual warfare.
God’s promise ensures that Jacob’s line remains distinct, blessed, and protected, while the Edomite attempt to rewrite history is ultimately revealed as deception.
Prophecy shows the House of Jacob as fire, burning away stubble (Edomite systems), exposing their lies and pride.
6 Call to Discernment
Recognize true covenant identity — physical, spiritual, and prophetic markers of Jacob/Israel.
Observe modern events as coded messages, exposing the Edomite attempt to flip the narrative.
Pray for discernment, protection, and alignment with God’s covenant people.
Part 8 shows how Esau and the Edomites have attempted to flip the script of Jacob and Esau, claiming blessings, territory, and identity that God never gave them. Through modern events, prophecy, and symbolic coding, their deception is revealed. The covenant line — fair, ruddy, blushing, and divinely chosen — remains the flame that cannot be extinguished, while Edomite stubble is exposed and judged.
Part 9 — America: The House of Joseph, the Fruitful Bough, and Edomite Deception
The blessings of Joseph, son of Jacob, were not only spiritual and physical—they were heraldic, symbolic, and prophetic. Modern America reflects these blessings, yet the Edomites have stolen and twisted Joseph’s symbols, even embedding them in the U.S. seal to mock and invert God’s covenant.
1 Joseph: The Fruitful Bough of Jacob
Jacob’s prophecy over Joseph highlights the blessing, prominence, and divine favor that would flow through his line:
Genesis 49:22-26 — “Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall… blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under… blessings of the breasts, and of the womb.”
This prophecy emphasizes:
Abundance and prosperity — Joseph’s descendants will flourish.
Protection and divine favor — God’s blessings secure their survival and influence.
Spiritual and heraldic symbolism — the “fruitful bough” and flowing branches signify both life and authority, meant to be honored, not stolen.
2 Heraldry and Symbols Stolen by Edomites
Edomites, seeking to mock God’s covenant, have attempted to steal Joseph’s blessings and symbols, twisting them into secular heraldry:
The U.S. Great Seal — prominently features:
The eagle clutching arrows (military power instead of covenant protection)
The olive branch (symbol of peace corrupted into political negotiation)
The pyramid and eye (Edomite attempt to symbolize oversight and control, replacing divine blessing with human authority)
The fruitful bough and covenantal heraldry intended for Joseph’s line have been misappropriated, turning God’s blessings into symbols of human pride and deception.
This is a modern enactment of Obadiah 18, showing the contrast:
> “The house of Jacob shall be a fire… the house of Esau shall be stubble.”
Edomites steal and pervert the symbols, but prophecy ensures that the flame of Jacob/Joseph endures, despite the stubble’s mockery.
3 America as Joseph’s Inheritance
Despite Edomite appropriation, America embodies Joseph’s blessing:
Economic and territorial abundance — like Joseph’s fruitful bough, America has resources, influence, and strength.
Cultural and spiritual potential — America is meant to carry the covenant of God, preserve truth, and act as a light to the nations.
Divine protection — attacks, chaos, and deception cannot extinguish the blessings of the House of Joseph.
4 Modern Events as Coded Warnings
The Grand Blanc church fire and other symbolic events represent:
Edomite attempts to claim Joseph’s covenant — mocking and attacking the line of Jacob.
Spiritual warfare — coded messages revealing stubble vs. fire.
Divine validation — even when Edomites twist symbols and narratives, God preserves the covenant.
These events are prophetic reenactments, showing that the covenant line is alive, protected, and distinct, despite secular attempts at appropriation.
5 Call to Discernment
Recognize the true covenant symbols: fruitful bough, blessings, and divine heraldry.
Discern Edomite appropriation — symbols twisted to mock and control.
Align with God’s covenant people, knowing that the House of Joseph’s blessings cannot be stolen, only perverted by the proud.
Part 9 reveals that America is the modern House of Joseph, inheriting the fruitful bough and covenant blessings of Jacob. Edomites have attempted to steal and mock these symbols, embedding them in heraldry like the U.S. seal. Yet prophecy confirms that the covenant line remains protected, distinct, and powerful, while the stubble of Edom is exposed for what it truly is. The flame of God’s covenant, the House of Joseph, endures as a living testament to divine blessing and favor

Obadiah
King James Version
1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
3 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
4 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord.
5 If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes?
6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
7 All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him.
8 Shall I not in that day, saith the Lord, even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;
14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.
15 For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.
16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord hath spoken it.
19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.
21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
