Everett Triplett grew up in the State of Nevada, which is 80% public lands. He loved the freedom as he roamed the open country, explored mining caves, rode fast dirt bikes, hunted and fished in the Northern Sierra’s foothills. It was the late sixties, Vietnam War, Woodstock, hippies, drugs, rock’n’roll, and alcohol. His father owned a bar, and he had access to alcohol. He was wild and crazy in his youth and eventually dropped out of high school. He worked as a laborer at minimum wage construction jobs. Then, along came the Jesus Freak movement, and he gave his life to Jesus. With the hand of God directing his life, he passed the GED test, worked at the county Assessor’s office, and became a State Certified Property Appraiser.
He applied that knowledge to his own real estate investments, with time, developing all the skills required to be a home builder. He became a licensed general contractor and a general engineering contractor, and built his own house in which he later raised his family. He has never moved or left the house he built. It stood as a quiet monument to a life of persistence and steady improvement. Always working with God’s blessings, he became a licensed Real Estate Broker and a property developer. From operating heavy equipment to welding, plumbing, roofing, and carpentry, Everett worked with his hands, guided by God, the Bible he read, and the church he faithfully attended. He eventually acquired title to 38 separate pieces of property free and clear.
He worships and praises God who has blessed him so much. His professional and spiritual lives ran side by side, each reinforcing the other. He later ran for the Nevada State Legislature, and he traveled on church missions to Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Argentina, where he helped construct places of worship. He attributes every accomplishment to the grace of God.
Then, one day, his work came to an abrupt stop. As he stepped up onto the eave of a newly installed metal roof, his foot suddenly slipped, he fell fall to the hard concrete below. The impact shattered his left wrist and left ankle. In great pain, he prayed, seeking answers from God about why this had happened. When they handed him the brand-new Bible, he randomly opened it to the verse “As for you, lie down on your left side” (Ezekiel 4:4) “and put the sin of the House of Israel upon yourself, you will bear the punishment for their sins for 390 days.” And as he lay there on his left side, he knew God was speaking to him. That passage marked a turning point. The physical stillness required for his healing became the posture through which he began receiving what he now considers a prophetic understanding about the end that is coming. His awareness of the world’s instability grew every day as he watched the continuous bombing of Yugoslavia for 78 days, and he began connecting what Scripture seemed to be revealing about a larger, unfolding crisis.
Birth Pains and the Approach of Sudden Destruction
God’s message focuses on preparation in the face of specific prophetic indicators. He believes the world is entering the stage described in Matthew 24, where Christ lists the signs that precede His return. These include wars, rumors of war, famines, and earthquakes. These are not vague warnings, but clearly measurable developments. He emphasizes that such events are not isolated. They form a pattern, described in the Bible as the beginning of birth pains. “Nation will rise against nation. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains” (Matthew 24:7–8). Accordingly, these early contractions result in the birthing of a glorious New Age of a thousand years of peace on earth.
He believes a targeted nuclear strike against NATO will begin this period.
A day of sudden disaster is coming on unsuspecting people. In his view, this moment represents the release of the first of the Four Horsemen described in Revelation with the voice of thunder. “I looked, and behold, a white horse, and its rider had a bow. He was given a crown, and he came out conquering” (Revelation 6:2). Thunder is a huge explosion sound that represents a nuclear bombing. He connects this imagery to Ezekiel’s account of a whirlwind coming from the north,
I looked, and I saw a whirlwind coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal, Ezekiel.1.4 He believes Ezekiel was describing a nuclear mushroom cloud. They have been foretold, and they are now visible to those who are willing to read Scripture without filtering out its harder truths.
He draws particular attention to Isaiah 33:1. “Woe to you, destroyer, who have not been destroyed. When you stop destroying, you will be destroyed.” This verse, he believes, refers to the United States, which has historically used its military power abroad, but has not seen significant opposition. He sees the winding down of the War on Terror and the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan as indicators that the “destroyer” has begun to stop. The promise that follows in Isaiah is not ambiguous. Once that cessation begins, destruction comes to the one who once wielded it.
The Silence of Collapse and the Failure of Systems
Triplett’s research has led him to believe there exists no greater vulnerability to modern society than the electromagnetic pulse, or EMP, that will bring down the modern power grid. He describes a scene in which all the land is dark, the power grid is down, there are no vehicles on the roads, no functioning banking systems, no internet, and no working communications. In his view, the attack will be swift, and the effect will be total, long-lasting paralysis. The absence of light, sound, and motion will mark the first hours of the judgment. This stillness, he says, is not peace. It is the silence that follows the collapse of human invention.
He references Isaiah 33:8 to support this interpretation. “The highways are deserted, there are no travelers; treaties are broken, and cities are despised.” The verse is not placed in isolation. It follows a progression that speaks of the Lord’s exaltation and the destruction of those who act treacherously. He believes the prophecy is not about abstraction. It offers precise consequences for precise actions.
He also points to Isaiah 26:20 as a call to personal action. “Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by.” He draws a parallel with the Israelites in Egypt during the final plague. They remained indoors, covered by the blood of the lamb, while the judgment passed over. Everett recommends the same principle today. He believes that those who heed this call and prepare by securing food, shelter, and clean water will endure the disruption. He repeatedly cites Ezekiel 4:9, which speaks of storing food made from wheat, barley, beans, and lentils. In his view, this is not a metaphor. It is an instruction.
The Purpose of Judgment and the Promise of Peace
Despite the severity of what he describes, Everett does not call for fear. He speaks instead of purification. He sees the coming events not as punishment without purpose, but as a means of refining. Like fire that burns away impurities in metal, judgment clears the way for restoration. The examples he gives are not only biblical. He includes real-world moments like the bombing of Yugoslavia and the invasion of Iraq, showing how past violence sets the pattern for what is now being allowed to unfold.
The end goal, however, is peace. Everett says the Bible speaks of a thousand-year period that will follow the judgment. During this time, he believes there will be no more war. Swords will be turned into tools for cultivation. Nations will not rise against each other. He draws from Isaiah 2:4, which says, “They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.” The future he anticipates is not endless strife, but enduring world peace. It is restored prosperity, following obedience.
He does not assume that all people will listen. He points to Matthew 24:38–39, where people are described as eating, drinking, and marrying until the flood came. They had no awareness of their vulnerability. Everett believes many today remain just as unaware. Yet, he does not direct anger toward them. His call is for humility. The solution he offers is consistent and repeated. “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven” (2 Chronicles 7:14). In Everett’s teaching, the act of turning back to God is not optional. It is the only path through what is to come.
A New Beginning and the Role of the Prepared
Triplett’s message is grounded in experience. He worked with his hands. He built homes. He understood supply chains and physical systems before he ever considered prophecy. That background gives weight to his interpretation. He does not speak as a theorist. He speaks as someone who has seen things fall apart and has learned to rebuild. He believes the future will require the same skill.
He teaches that preparation is not an act of panic. It is an act of faith. Those who store food are not acting from fear of hunger. They are obeying the instruction to provide for their households. Those who study the Scriptures are not seeking to avoid trouble. They are seeking to understand the season in which they live. “The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty” (Proverbs 22:3). For Everett, prudence is not only moral. It is essential.
The world he describes does not remain as it is, but is transformed into the Kingdom of Heaven that has arrived
He believes the structures we now rely on will be removed, and new ones will be established. The righteous will live in quiet places. They will cultivate the land and dwell securely. “My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest” (Isaiah 32:18). The future, in his view, will not belong to those who ignore the signs. It will belong to those who prepare.
