In a recent “End of Days Update,” Joseph Morris delivers his signature blend of biblical prophecy, current events and end-time enthusiasm. Broadcasting from Tulsa, Oklahoma, Morris dives headfirst into the “different things that point to the coming of the Lord,” while making sure his listeners stay hopeful and energized.
Morris kicks things off with a reminder: “The Rapture is signless, and the Second Coming has tons of signs.” In a point he’s made before, he clarifies how “the Tribulation doesn’t start at the rapture. The Tribulation starts when Israel signs an agreement with the Antichrist.” According to Morris, recent global events are “a complete undercurrent and undertow of things getting ready for the Antichrist to come on the scene.”
But Morris’ message isn’t one of fear. He insists, “If you hear end time preaching that scares you, it’s not Bible. It’s to bring you joy.” For Morris, understanding these signs isn’t about panic but about preparation and excitement: “Soon and very soon, we’re going to see the King!”

Morris points to recent developments in Israel as key indicators of prophetic fulfillment. “America finally went ahead and said Israel can get a billion dollar’s worth of aid for arms,” he notes, adding that “those bunker-buster bombs that were sent last week look like they’re coming in right now.” He highlights the significance of Benjamin Netanyahu being “the first leader of state that would come to America for our new President Trump.”
Morris doesn’t shy away from controversial takes, especially regarding Gaza. Quoting Trump, he recounts, “You know the other nations in the Middle East when they have beachfront property, they make a golf course, they make a resort. And what does Gaza do? What does Hamas do? They build underground tunnels and bombs.”
/**/The geopolitical landscape, especially alliances involving Russia, Turkey and Iran, is another focal point. Morris observes, “That’s what comes down on Israel just after the rapture of the church when you see those alliances that they’ve been making.” He mentions Iran’s nuclear program, Turkey’s ambitions, and military actions in Syria, all tying back to biblical prophecies.
On the technological front, Morris highlights, “America did [what] was pretty radical this week—they unveiled their new laser weapon. It’ll not only take out drones, it will take out ships.” This, paired with “Russia with Iran started touting their new drones that had long range and had missile capacity,” feeds into his narrative of escalating global tensions.
Morris draws a historical parallel, noting that major world conflicts have coincided with pivotal moments for Israel. “What you have happen in 1917 when Allenby came in and got Israel their land—World War I. Same thing with Israel right after World War II—Israel got their land back in 1948.” He suggests that “the church [is] about to hand off to the Jews,” and that “World War III” could be imminent.
Signs aren’t limited to politics and war. Morris talks about natural phenomena and celestial events as divine signals. “Almost every week we’re watching debris from asteroids coming down hitting the earth,” he says. He also notes the approaching “blood red moons on Passover and Tabernacles,” drawing connections to historical events like “1967 when Jerusalem was won back” and “1948 when Israel was made a nation.”
In wrapping up, Morris calls for a shift in perspective among Christians.
“All of this is for a hustle mentality and to pick up your pace mentality—not an escape theology,” he asserts. He wants believers to stay “white-hot fervent in spirit always serving the Lord,” because “we’re about to see the Author of life.”
