ATLANTA, GA — In what analysts are calling the beginning of a nationwide economic downturn, shipping giant UPS announced plans to cut approximately 20,000 jobs and close 164 facilities by the end of the year, a move that Nubreed Global Truth identifies as part of a prophetic economic collapse referenced in scripture.
According to UPS's first quarter earnings report released on April 29, the company cited "new or increased tariffs and changes in general economic conditions in the US or internationally" as primary factors driving these cuts. The shipping company also reported consolidated revenues of 21.7 billion during the same period last year.
BIBLICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ECONOMIC DECLINE
Nubreed, founder of Nubreed Global Truth, interprets these developments through a biblical lens, connecting current events to prophetic warnings.
"America is far from being stable at the moment and it seems that it's not going to get any better anytime soon," Nubreed stated during a recent broadcast. "What we're seeing essentially is a microcosm of things to come. An amalgamation, if you will, of what's to come."
Referencing biblical prophecy, Nubreed explained: "This is what the scriptures talked about when it said 'Babylon the great is fallen.' It's falling. Oh, it's going to get hit economically. It's going to get hit religiously. It's going to get hit by military. The military forces are going to dwindle. All of it is going to fall."
WIDESPREAD JOB CUTS ACROSS SECTORS
The UPS announcement is part of a troubling pattern of job losses across multiple industries. According to data cited by Nubreed, layoffs across America have surged by 205% in just one month when compared to the previous year.
Notable companies experiencing significant workforce reductions in 2025 include:
- Estee Lauder: 7,000 layoffs
- Chevron: 8,000 layoffs
- Blue Origin: 1,400 layoffs
- Meta (Facebook parent): 3,600 layoffs (5% of workforce)
- Morgan Stanley: 2,000 layoffs (2-3% of staff)
- Microchip Technology: 2,000 layoffs
- Hewlett Packard: 25,500 layoffs
- Various others including GrubHub (500), Block Inc. (931), Ally Financial (500), and Boeing (400)
Perhaps most concerning is the reduction in government jobs, with the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) directing cuts of approximately 280,000 federal positions across 27 agencies since February.
THE TARIFF FACTOR
Nubreed points to President Trump's tariff policies as a significant factor in the economic downturn, particularly in relation to Chinese imports.
"This trade war and these tariffs are really taking its toll on the United States citizens as well as consumers," Nubreed commented. "A lot of products that Amazon are not going to be getting... they're made in China. That's the issue."
This assessment aligns with UPS's own statement attributing their consolidation efforts partly to "President Trump's looming tariffs" which "continue to impact US and global trade as companies across the country are reducing costs in preparation for a possible economic fallout."
AI REPLACEMENT AND THE FUTURE OF WORK
Beyond tariffs and economic uncertainty, Nubreed identifies artificial intelligence as another force threatening traditional employment.
"To add insult to injury, you have artificial intelligence that is taking over some of these delivery jobs," Nubreed explained. "They're going to push for artificial intelligence to be doing transport, you know, those cars that drive themselves, delivering packages without actual human beings."
SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE FOR UNCERTAIN TIMES
Rather than promoting fear, Nubreed offers spiritual wisdom for navigating these challenging economic times:
"When the Bible says, 'Blessed are ye in the country and blessed are ye in the field and blessed are ye in the city,' it's talking about those who are following the most high. Those who are moving according to the Holy Spirit, those are the people going to be blessed no matter where they at. Why? Because they adjusted. They learned. They have an open mind."
Nubreed advises practical preparation alongside spiritual readiness:
"Don't make any major purchases at the moment, especially if you end up leasing or financing something. Right now it's a time where if you're going to make major purchases, it should be something that's tangible that you can own."
He further emphasizes self-reliance over political solutions: "At some point of time, you got to start putting your trust in God rather than man. Your job should only be used to get where you going. Nothing is promised. Nothing is guaranteed."
A WAKE-UP CALL
While mainstream media outlets like CBS News have reported on the layoffs primarily as business decisions, Nubreed Global Truth provides a unique perspective that integrates economic analysis with biblical prophecy.
As economic uncertainty grows, Nubreed encourages viewers to prepare not only financially but spiritually: "Learn how to survive in the city as well as in the field. Learn how to adjust because if a lot of the jobs are going to be working on these AI bots, working on these smart cars and smart homes, it will be smart if you learn the ways of survival and also learn how to survive off the grid."
Despite the sobering analysis, Nubreed reminds followers that those guided by the Holy Spirit will receive "all manners of wisdom" needed to navigate these challenging times, emphasizing that ultimately, "the Most High will win."
