“And what I say to you, I say to all: WATCH!”
Mark 13:37
God’s prophetic word is falling into place. These are some of the geo-political areas to be watching.
Most of the “NEWS” that is bombarding the anxious people of earth lacks truth from a biblical perspective. Be careful what and who you listen to, guard your heart and don’t waste your strength and time on man-made false predictions from too much screen time.
The following are bullet points of the most recent developments:
ISRAEL
Israel continues to thrive under pressure both economically and strategically in spite (and probably because) of the pain and hardships of this extended season of war. Many hearts have grown tender under the hardships of the hour and are drawn closer to the Lord God of Israel.
The Arab Middle East on the other hand is sinking deeper and deeper into chaos, political disintegration, and economic disasters with no end in sight. Up to this point, international agreements among Israel’s enemies are proving meaningless as the only substantial keys for security and peace in the Middle East are military supremacy and economical viability.
IRAN
We have been watching the war events centered on Iran and its regime since February 28 for six months, waiting for escalation or an agreement.
The Strait of Hormuz was mostly closed from March 2 to August 23 or so, being about 175 days. The Strait is sporadically open, and often still under the control of the Iranian regime.
As of today, the Strait seems to be officially closed again and has now been closed for four (4) days. Marinetraffic.com still shows only a few ships going through the Strait at the moment.
As a result of President Trump’s military and economic pressure, Iran is falling apart internally with hyperinflation and acute shortages of food, water, and fuel. With weakening control mechanisms (money, force, and political favoritism) over the vast population, Tehran is losing control of the large ethnic minorities that make up more than half of Iran’s population.
It’s only a matter of time before these armed and independent minorities will revolt against the Mullahs and their private IRGC military machine. With depleting resources, Iran’s massive support for Hamas and Hezbollah is also dwindling. Pray for the persecuted church in Iran and that the Lord will raise up leaders to support the Body of Christ.
HAMAS
Hamas in Gaza is refusing to give up its arms in compliance with the international agreement it has signed, and rather continues to challenge Israeli forces on the new border fence. Every day terrorists are eliminated who are just itching to become “shahids,” martyrs for Allah. In spite of the West’s hopeful delusions, Hamas will not be transformed into a “peaceful political movement” and it’s difficult to think Gaza will ever be rebuilt into a new “Mediterranean Riviera.”
More likely, Gaza will remain in ruins as a memorial to the fate of those who rise up to destroy Israel. We pray for the miserable and oppressed Arabs who call Gaza their home and who’s entire life has been bound to the false hope of invading and possessing the Covenant Land of Israel for Allah.
HEZBOLLAH
Hezbollah in Lebanon is the same. It will never disarm on its own, and the weak Lebanese Army is unable and unwilling to disarm it. According to international agreement, as long as Hezbollah remains armed and poses danger to Israeli civilians, Israel is free to act decisively in Lebanon.
In fact, now that IDF forces are controlling all of Southern Lebanon to the Litani River and the Hermon Mountain Top, they are discovering that ALL of what used to be “Southern Lebanon” is interwoven with massive underground networks of terror tunnels.
Israel is dealing with a demonized people group, and IDF forces are daily eliminating Hezbollah terrorists that refuse to evacuate their positions, dismantling weapon caches and missiles that threaten Israeli communities, and blowing up miles of newly discovered terror tunnels. It’s unlikely Israel will ever give these territories back, no matter the international displeasure and complaints.
SAUDI ARABIA
Saudi Arabia and the rest of the Arab Oil Kingdoms on the Straits of Hormuz are in chaos, experiencing sharp economical declines and a leadership vacuum. Their corrupt regimes are unable to deal with the looming crisis, and their economies (which are entirely based upon oil and gas exports) are falling apart.
Qatar, the main exporter of radical Islam to the world’s universities and progressive elites, has cut down its “Foreign Budget” (used for bribes and buying influence) by nearly 80%! The gig is up; the gravy train is over; and the West may soon be able to make up its own troubled mind without being bought and manipulated by dirty Arab money.
MUSLIM INVASION
The Muslim invasion of illegals into European territory is expanding from day to day, yet the media is hiding most of these stories. Tens of thousands of (mostly) young Muslim men are being bussed, trucked, and sailed into Spanish territories daily, and the local authorities are helpless. By now not only the City of Ceuta serves as the key beachhead of this uncontrollable invasion, but speed boats loaded with Muslim Africans are freely landing on the shores of mainland Spain from Algiers with no one stopping them.
The progressive laws of the European Union are permitting this insanity as Red Cross workers and local naive volunteers meet these illegals with bags of food and bottles of water and process them into “transitional concentration camps.” From there, according to the EU laws, they will be able to move freely into any EU nation, sucking on local social benefits and harassing the native populations.
As laid out in Bible prophecy, we’re watching the Islamic siege of Europe. The battle for the destiny of the continent is raging. Europe is asleep and going under and with it goes the false notion of a ‘revived Roman empire.’
Bible prophecy calls for the revival of the Islamic empire in the last days. It’s happening now… don’t you see it? It’s gripping Europe by the throat and coming into America like a tidal wave. Wake up world. Wake up America! Wake up church! Islam is the greatest danger to the Church in the world today and will grow in power and impact to become God’s chief force for judgment during the 7-year Tribulation!
While the authorities hide the real numbers, recent surveys revealed that nearly 40% of the French population 18 years and younger are keeping the Ramadan Muslim holiday. Similar numbers are found in England and other European nations. When the young population is disproportionately Muslim at such insane levels, you know that, barring a movement of God or a constitutional revival, the demographic battle is over.
These nations, for all practical purposes, could be considered Euro-Muslim countries. The rest of the West should take notice before, as PM Benjamin Netanyahu says, “”the Islamic Republic of Britain” becomes a reality.
We pray for and with the Church in Europe, the USA, and other nations, as the battle for their destiny cannot be ignored or avoided any longer.
RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR
This demonic war is far from over, and a “stray” Russian missile recently exploded in Romanian territory. “Naughty Russians… shame on you. You’d better aim your missiles more accurately next time.”
Russia is currently trying to rebuild its army and weapon arsenal, and European sources are warning of upcoming pinpointed incursions into east European nations and aerial assaults to test NATO’s resolve. In fact, Moscow just issued a stern warning to England that it will come under Russian attack if Ukraine continues to use British weapons against Russian targets.
This war could spread and get worse before things get better.
The battle from the Israel hating nations and Israel’s right to live in the ‘Promised Land’ will continue to intensify until the Lord’s return. As the Scripture commands us,
“Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” Says your God. Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned;
For she has received from the LORD’s hand double for all her sins.”
(Isaiah 40).
