Phips Collide in Storm Off Dutch Coast

January 31, 2022 (Day 31):  Two ships collided in a powerful storm off the Dutch coast. The Julietta D freighter collided with the Pechora Star oil and chemicals tanker about 20 miles (32 km) west of the port of Ijmuiden.  Both ships were anchored, but the anchor of the Julietta D did not hold .  The Julietta D was left with a hole in its hull (ref. photo)  and began to take on water, and its 18 crew members had to be rescued with three helicopters, one from Belgium.  The Pechora Star was also damaged but still sea worthy.  The Julietta D was left rudderless and floating in the Hollandse Kust Zuid wind farm about 15 miles off the coast.  It later also collided with the foundation of a wind farm platform under construction.

Storm Corrie packing wind gusts of 75 mph (120km/hr) on the North Sea caused the deaths of people from Great Britain to Germany, knocked down trees, knocked out power, and caused flooding.  The weather image shows the massive storm over the Netherlands and Eastern Europe.  The storm appears to reveal an angel.  The storm follows on the heels of a storm over Russia in the form of a horse's head.  The still frame of the two storms appears to show them in opposition to each other.

The Julietta D is Malta-registered (IMO number 9590618), built in 2013 , and the Pechora Star is Malta-registered (IMO number 9488322) built in 2011.  The IMO number of the Pechora Star ends with 22, for cursing, per the meaning of  the year, and also contains 88, for blessing.  It was still sea worthy.  The IMO number for the Julietta D ends in 18, corresponding to the 18 crew members rescued.  Julietta is a diminutive of a Latin (Roman) name made popular by Julius Caesar, and Pechora, meaning forest dweller, is the name of a river in northwest Russia which is the sixth longest river in  Europe.
 

Europe Storm

Spiritual Meaning

Two ships collided off the coast of Ijmuiden, Netherlands west of Amsterdam.  The ships were anchored, but during a powerful storm, the anchor of the Julietta D did not hold, and it collided with the Pechora Star.  The Julietta D was badly damaged and its crew of 18 had to be rescued.  The ship was left rudderless and driven by the storm because the tug could not handle it in the storm.  The collision of the two ships symbolizes the great naval battle in the Tribulation when the King of the West (Antichrist, King of the Revived Roman Empire) attacks the supply line of the King of the North (Russia) in the Mediterranean Sea.  See Armageddon War, Battles.  The Julietta D, which sailed from Germany en route to Amsterdam, symbolizes the European Union, and the Pechora Star symbolizes Russia and the King of  the North.

The satellite picture of the storms over Europe symbolizes the same conflict as illustrated by the ships.  The first storm, Corrie, was over the Netherlands and western Europe, and the second storm with the large horse's head was over western Russia.  The first storm over the Netherlands corresponds to the Julietta D, and the second storm over Russia corresponds to the Pechora Star.  The weather angels made the storms and drove the Julietta D into the Pechora Star.  The resemblance of an angel kneeling down appears in the storm image over the Netherlands.  The storm over the Netherlands and western Europe is counterattacking the storm over Russia, which is faced off against it.

When the anchor of the Julietta D did not hold, the ship was driven by the wind out of control.  This is the symbol of the immature believer who is driven by every wave of false doctrine in the world (ref. Eph 4:14, the link is important).  Non-doctrinal believers are rudderless in the storm as was the Julietta D.

The anchor of the Julietta D is the symbol of the resurrected Lord Jesus Chrsit, the High Priest of the Church (ref. Heb 6:19-20) as the upside down anchor of the soul.  The anchor not holding is a sign of the weak believer who has lost sight of the anchor of his soul.  He is not grounded.  He has no foundation in his Salvation.  He has lost sight of  His Savior.  He has no hope of having fellowship (Z-axis alignment) with the resurrected Christ.  The Lord Jesus Christ is  not real to him.  Consequently, he falls for false doctrine, doctrines of demons, and the stratagems of the devil.

The 18 crew rescued from the Julietta D symbolize a pillar in the temple, per the meaning of  the year 2018 and corresponding to the resurrection.  The crew members were hoisted up to safety by helicopters as a sign of the resurrection.  The resurrection of the Church will occur at the Rapture, which is before the Tribulation.  Believers on the Earth will be given new resurrection bodies and meet the Lord in the air.  They will go to Heaven to be evaluated for their service to Christ in this life.  Their dead works will be burned, and they will receive their rewards for Divine Good production.

Currently on the world stage the Christians of Ukraine are having their faith tested.  Are they going to be immature believers like a rudderless ship in a storm or are they going to learn and obey sound doctrine?  In the current crisis between NATO and Russia, is their hope anchored to the resurrected Christ, the  High Priest of the Church?

Conclusion

The collision of two ships off the Dutch coast occurred when the anchor of one failed to hold in a storm.  The Julietta D ship was damaged and had to be evacuated.  The other ship, the Pechora Star, was still sea worthy.  The collision of the two ships symbolizes the naval battle in the Mediterranean in the Tribulation when the King of the West (Revived Roman Empire) counterattacks the supply line of the King of the North (Russia).  The Julietta D symbolizes the navy of the King of the West, and the Pechora Star symbolizes the King of the North (Russia).  The same conflict was portrayed by the weather angels in two storms, one over the Netherlands and European Union and the other over Russia.

The Julietta D was left rudderless in the storm and driven by wind and waves as the symbol of the immature believer without Bible Doctrine in the devil's world.  He falls for every false doctrine peddled by the apostates and is overcome by doctrines of demons.  He is the pawn of Satan. 

The anchor that did not hold symbolizes the upside down anchor in the soul of the believer who has lost sight of his Salvation and lacks a relationship with the resurrected Christ.  The 18 crew members who were rescued symbolize a pillar in the temple and the resurrection.  The believer in fellowship with Jesus Christ, the High Priest of the Church, lives in anticipation of the resurrection (rapture) when he will be united with Christ in resurrection body, while the reversionistic believer is distracted and confused.
