"Ephraim"/England & The British Commonwealth, and "Manasseh"/America, were indeed Greatly Blessed, when they became independent Nations, as it was Prophesied of:
Gen 48:8 Israel saw Josephâs sons, and said, âWho are these?â
Gen 48:9 Joseph said to his father, âThey are my sons, whom God has given me here.â He said, âPlease bring them to me, and I will bless them.â
Gen 48:10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he couldnât see well. Joseph brought them near to him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
Gen 48:11 Israel said to Joseph, âI didnât think I would see your face, and behold, God has let me see your offspring also.â
Gen 48:12 Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
Gen 48:13 Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israelâs left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israelâs right hand, and brought them near to him.
Gen 48:14 Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it on Ephraimâs head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manassehâs head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh was the firstborn.
Gen 48:15 He blessed Joseph, and said, âThe God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has fed me all my life long to this day,
Gen 48:16 the angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. Let them grow into a multitude upon the earth.â
Gen 48:17 When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. He held up his fatherâs hand, to remove it from Ephraimâs head to Manassehâs head.
Gen 48:18 Joseph said to his father, âNot so, my father, for this is the firstborn. Put your right hand on his head.â
Gen 48:19 His father refused, and said, âI know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his offspring will become a multitude of nations.â
Gen 48:20 He blessed them that day, saying, âIsrael will bless in you, saying, âGod make you as Ephraim and as Manassehââ He set Ephraim before Manasseh.
Gen 48:21 Israel said to Joseph, âBehold, I am dying, but God will be with you, and bring you again to the land of your fathers.
Gen 48:22 Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.â

The Children of Yisrael, especially the Tribes of Ephraim, & Manasseh, in Old Testament Times, would "Obey", & then "Dis-obey" repeatedly, until the Wrath of YAHWEH fell heavily upon the House of Yisrael. The Assyrian Empire savagely conquered, & enslaved the House of Yisrael, and placed it in the N. Eastern, & Western areas of the Assyrian Empire. The House of Yisrael, as of Feb.20, 2026, has never returned to it's Homeland, nor reunited with the House of Yudah (The Jews).
England, became so great in the world, that at one time the Sun never set upon it's flag. England's power Today is only a shadow of what it once was.
America, quickly rose up to be a World Power, in the 20th Century, in practically every manner, but,.....
Even though America could destroy Mankind Today, with its nuclear arsenal, ..... I Believe that during My Lifetime America's "Power" will be broken.
I also believe that the prophesied of "End Times" are now on America's, The British Commonwealth's, and Mankind's "Horizon".
