Tonight we take a prophetic look at the new year of 2026 to see if we can get a handle on where it might be taking us

If you have watched any of our Podcasts over the past few weeks, especially the Emergency Broadcast this past Saturday, then you know that things are busting out all over from an end times perspective. Only 4 days old, the new year of 2026 is fixin’ to be a barn burner, so what better way to start the first Bible Study of the year than with an end times look at the last days landscape.

“And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.” John 14:29 (KJB)

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we take a long hard look at events unfolding in America, South America, Europe and the Middle East to see if we can find some harmony with prophecies of and related to the last days. Spoiler alert – we sure can and you’re gonna love what we have found.

IN 2026 YOU SHOULD RESOLVE TO GET SERIOUS ABOUT STUDYING THE BIBLE, WE HAVE THE TOOLS TO HELP YOU. CLICK TO ORDER!!

Your Generous Donations Make These Live King James Radio Bible Studies Possible!

On our Sunday and Wednesday night radio bible study, we are preaching and teaching the gospel of the grace of God, rightly divided and dispensationally correct, to a truly global audience who is hungry for the word. These programs would not be possible without your generous support. Listen to just a few of the recent comments we have gotten:

• I  thanked God for sending to your website in 2015 , I  live in the South of France near Nice and let me tell you here there isn’t any Bible Believing church at all, the sad reality of France is that is full of freemasons and Muslims. You came to me at the time I  was going to take my own life because of my job. You’re anointed person and I pray for you, family  and  ministry because you’re a blessing to all of us. May God bless you always. I know I’ll meet you in heaven one day. Lots of Love from your sister in Christ, Paula.

• “Hi Geoffrey and staff, Today is my one year anniversary that I got saved on your podcast!  I am now a KJB only, I threw away my other two versions I had.  I was shocked to learn of the differences and how the new versions twist the words of God, and dilute the message at best. Thank you for the fabulous bible  education and fire for the Lord.  I donate on your website throughout the year.  Thanks for all that you do.” Donna

• “I have been reading on NTEB for about 5 years and listening as I can to your services.  If I could list the encouragement, the doctrines, the awareness of what is coming (our blessed hope) but also the last days culture in which I live that you have taught me, this email wouldn’t fit in this letter. Because of you, I am a stronger more equipped soldier for Jesus Christ. Thank you sir for you, your ministry in my life. Faithful to the end because He lives in me.” Ruthie Dennis
• “My name is Carl N from Mumbai, India. My wife Andrea and I have been ardent listeners of your Bible Study and news update podcasts from the very start of the lockdown last year. In fact we make it a point to share these links with our family and friends… many times getting into trouble, as the truth upsets people. We cannot even begin to tell you how this has changed our lives and walk with the Lord. Thank you so much for what you’ve been doing for the Kingdom!! We’ve even switched Bible translations to the KJV. For the last month or so, you’ve been speaking about making end times Bible study materials available. This got us really excited, as we’re eager to use these for our weekly house church group.” Carl N – Mumbai, India
• “I listen to your podcasts often. Very enlightening and I’ve learned a lot. I’m Catholic and followed the Holy Bible throughout my life however, since listening to your podcasts, I’ve learned much more. I recently sent NTEB a small donation. I’d like to do so again in the future. I’ve also signed up for NTEB chatroom. Anyways, I have a downloaded version of KJB on my computer and I follow your Bible Study with my pdf version KJB. You have offered to send out printed version of KJB if requested. If not too much trouble, when you or your staff get the opportunity please send me a copy.” Kevin W – Frankfurt, Germany
• Just wanted to let you know that your ministry is producing fruit. After listening to the studies and church on NTEB, I was motivated to write witness letters along with NTEB gospel tracks to friends from my hometown who I know are not saved. I sent two of the letters to former Catholic priests of mine….I attached the response from him urging me to read the book “Prove It!.” My wife and I have been placing your gospel tracks in different places we visit. This coming Sunday, I am hosting my first Bible study in my house with some people in our neighborhood. Tomorrow evening I have been given a chance to teach the lesson to our youth church group (our church is very Laodicean), and I am going to talk to the youth on end times. Thank you so much for your ministry and encouraging us to get something done for Jesus while we still can! Thomas B 
• “The sole purpose of this email to you is to let you know how much we have been blessed by your amazing ministry/website. ‘We’ is my wife and I, in our early forties, 3 kids, professing, churchgoing, bible believing Christians in The Netherlands.  Since two months, I listen to your bible studies on Sunday evening, and since this week also to your prophecy podcast. I listen to them in the archives, because of the 6 hour time difference. The shofar and the blessing at 0:30 into the study never fails to make tears in my eyes. We are praying for you, we are praying for your voice, that it lasts in these incredible busy times for you. Listening to your podcasts, you seem to do it effortlessly, talking, scanning the chatbox for questions, diving into the texts, from Genesis to Revelation and everything in between, I love it when you realize after 1:30h into the study, actually a lot more subjects need to be addressed! Thank you for all your work and effort, you are doing an amazing job. Although it all seems effortlessly, I know it is not…Our faith is strengthened by your work and we are able to testify in a better way to the people around us!” Wouter D. van der Wiel – Netherlands
• “Wanted to send you encouragement and thank you for all you are doing!! I’ve been reading from this website for about 5 years and I’ve been on this at least 10 times a day. It’s the most honest prophecy website in history. And you have ministered to me greatly. This lockdown has been amazing as God gets us unto himself and smooths out the paths for us. I was reading devotional from Kenneth Copeland and during that time you had really hit That ministries hard. I was not Word Faith but I was feeding off his teaching. During this time I have removed Kenneth Copeland I wanted to thank you for your exposure of his ministry. Holy Spirit is truly the leader of all truths. The bible study on Bill Gates was tremendous. And I had the same check in my spirit as you did. He’s the guy that gonna lead this one world revolution Amazing times we live in. I’m super excited and living in total victory and peace. Once again thank you for the time you put in your reward in heaven will truly be great. Looking forward to this coming week. My prayer tonight is this …Father send Your Son!! DG
• “Thank you oh so much for sound teaching. I am so thankful and blessed for clicking on your channel. I have been on your Facebook page since 2011 and never subscribed to you-tube channel until today. I loved the live recording of singing, what a delight to hear the joy of the Lord in the voices of the congregation. So wonderful to hear the part about Luke 12:36, that has made my eyebrows furrow when I read and therefore I have always steadfast to not leaning on my own understanding. May God continue to bless you, your family friends and loved ones. All Glory be to Jesus, my Saviour Redeemer and King, Amen.” Susan Anderson
• “Loved this teaching! Presented in a clear contextual manner that was easy to follow along. You connected the dots for me that had previously brought so much confusion, namely the 4th seal covenant, the 5th seal tribulation saints, and the 6th seal 2nd Coming of Christ AFTER the wedding of the Body/Bride of Christ IN HEAVEN. Wow, after 41 years since my being born again by the Holy Spirit in to the Body of Christ, I finally have the answers to end the confusion. What joy and peace has flooded my heart! Thank you for this encouraging teaching of the Word.” SB
• “I am from Sri Lanka and listen to the radio Bible study every week.” Nihal Perera

Nothing thrills my soul like teaching the word of God, it is what the Lord called me to do 29 years ago, and Now The End Begins is the vehicle in which I am able to do it. How exciting it is to be able to teach the Bible to tens of thousands of people per year. Like I told you with the first post of 2020, I have dedicated myself now full-time to NTEB, and it is only through your generous support that such a thing is possible.

All because of our blessed brother’s work Geoffrey Grider who as the bravery of standing fast forward without fear of claiming the truth of God by the power of his love in Jesus Christ. May God bless you abundantly to the end my dear brother… ROMANS: 8: 36,37,38” Mireille Anderson
• “I met you at the car dealership earlier this year. We spoke briefly, then you handed me a card and told me to check out the website. You left. A few minutes later, you returned to tell me not to forget to look up the website. I told you…” I already did. I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love. I am convinced that God sent you to share the Good News that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.

• “I’m a KJB believer. We’re so close to being “caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord. I have many lost family who don’t want the truth, including my husband & son. I’ve been banned from seeing my grandsons since I comforted the 4 1/2 year old with sharing Jesus loving the little children & telling him about the one who created him last he stayed overnight March 3rd. He was so excited to hear about Jesus! His dad (my son) was angry that I told him & wants me to apologize. I never will do so. If my own family won’t hear, I know there’s others searching for the truth. My heart grieves for all the lost who will spend eternity in hell if they reject the Lord Jesus Christ, the expectant hope of the world. He is not willing that any should perish. God bless your ministry, Geoffrey! (I continue to pass out your tracts & you’re on my prayer list!)” LouAnn Benham
• “Love the Sunday night bible study. I want to support someone who has the passion for the lost like Geoffrey does and rightly divides the word of God. God bless you.” Teresa Carey
• “I give because not many news outlets are brave enough or Godly enough to tell these stories from a Christian’s point of view. I see stories here that will not be seen anywhere else.” William Grayshaw

Contained in the prayer of Daniel we see the God-approved method for coming before Him with our prayers and supplications

Bible students love to go to the book of the prophet Daniel to read about the end times and Antichrist, and I do agree, that’s one of the most exciting books of the Bible. For sure. But what many Christians often overlook is Daniel’s great prayer we see there in chapter 9, and contained in that prayer is a God-approved framework for Christians here in the 21^st century. If you want to hear from God, this is where you begin, with the prayer of Daniel. Not what he prayed for, but how he prayed is the key.

“And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes: And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;” Daniel 9:3,4 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: The Prayer of Daniel

The Prayer of Daniel

Bible students love to go to the book of the prophet Daniel to read about the end times and Antichrist, and I do agree, that’s one of the most exciting books of the Bible. For sure. But what many often overlook is Daniel’s great prayer we see there in chapter 9, and contained in that prayer is a God-approved framework for Christians here in the 21^st century.

1). Daniel The Prophet Still Needed To Do Bible Study

Nothing takes the place of good, old-fashioned Bible study, and even the prophets were not above having to do it. The first step to supercharging your prayer life is studying in your King James Bible.

“In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.” Daniel 9:1 (KJB)

• “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJB)

2). Daniel’s Main Weapon Was Prayer

Daniel wasn’t speaking in tongues or same crazy things, he knew his main weapon was prayer with the Lord. Our main weapon is the same thing, prayer.

“And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes: And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;” Daniel 9:3,4 (KJB)

• “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” Philippians 4:6 (KJB)

3). Daniel Gets Real With God

Daniel shows us the importance of getting on your face before God, getting real with God, and making your accounts are up to date. You take a shower every day, brush your teeth every day, you should confess your sin before the Lord everyday as well.

“And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;” Daniel 9:4 (KJB)

• “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” Romans 14:11 (KJB)

4). Daniel Appeals To Scripture, Not Feelings and Emotions

Too many people want to have a feeling, an experience, or some other emotional outburst, and I am not against those things, but we are not ruled by those things and neither to we appeal to those things. The word of God is your platform, not your feelings.

“As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.” Daniel 9:13 (KJB)

• “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:16,17 (KJB)

5). Daniel Hears From God

You will notice where on the timeline that Daniel begins to hear back from God, after he had studied the word, confessed his sin, gotten right with the Lord and appealed to His preserved word. Your path is exactly the same. If you want to ‘hear from God’, then you need to pray how Daniel prayer, and I promise you will hear from God.

“And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God; Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation. And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding. At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.” Daniel 9:20-23 (KJB)

• “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 (KJB)

Humbleness and Humility

Daniel was a very humble person, and the Bible places a high premium on humility and humbleness. God honors the man or woman who will humble themselves before Him.

“For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.” Isaiah 57:15 (KJB)

“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:” 1 Peter 5:6 (KJB)

“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:10 (KJB)

“When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.” Job 22:29 (KJB)

“LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:” Psalm 10:17 (KJB)

“Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.” Philippians 2:4 (KJB)

President Trump told the nation earlier today that the US would now take over running Venezuela, and control its oil calling the the ‘Donroe Doctrine’

President Trump stepped to the microphones on January 3, 2026 and said the quiet part out loud: the United States would run Venezuela during a “transition,” and would “get the oil flowing.” That’s not “foreign policy.” That’s the language of occupation, the kind of talk you hear right before lawyers start arguing about “authority,” “stability,” and “temporary measures” that have a way of becoming permanent.

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1 (KJB)

And here’s the part you can’t miss: the oil isn’t a side-note in this story, it’s a theme. Reuters reported Trump saying U.S. oil companies are ready to invest billions to revive Venezuela’s oil sector after Maduro’s capture, while the U.S. military would stay “until demands are fulfilled.” Another report describes Venezuela’s oil infrastructure as decayed and difficult to revive quickly, meaning this isn’t a “weekend project” — it’s a long entanglement. For all of you MAGA followers an QAnon supporters, if Barack Obama and Joe Biden were doing what Trump is doing right now, would you still be cheering as loudly as you are now? Would you even be cheering at all? No, you would be denouncing it and demanding they stop. Trump is just getting started with the upcoming series of wars and military campaigns he has planned, so get ready for war, and lots of it.

Trump says US will ‘temporarily’ run Venezuela, ‘not afraid of boots on ground’ if necessary

FROM THE NY POST: “We’re going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition,” Trump said at a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago resort as he provided new details on the stunning military operation.

“We’re going to run it, essentially” through the transition, he said.

The logistics of a US-run Venezuela were still being worked out, but Trump said it might involve military “boots on the ground.”

BREAKING NEWS: President Trump announces the United States will seize control of Venezuela and all of its oil for the foreseeable future, and will do so with boots on the ground. In short, a complete military takeover of a foreign nation. #donroedoctrine pic.twitter.com/xIUsNhF0hm

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) January 3, 2026

“We’re not afraid of boots on the ground if we have to,” the president said.  “We had boots on the ground last night, at a very high level, actually.”

Later, Trump added, “We’re going to have a presence in Venezuela as it pertains to oil.”

In a strong assertion of US national prerogative in the hemisphere, Trump said he had one-upped the Monroe Doctrine of the nation’s early history. “They now call it the Donroe Doctrine,” Trump quipped, while flanked by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and CIA Director John Ratcliffe.

He brushed off questions about the US’s record of running countries in Latin America over the last century and even whether it was consistent with his “America First” mantra. “We’re going to run the country right, it’s going to be run very judiciously, very fairly,” Trump said. READ MORE
