Linking Israel’s Prophetic Events & Iran

17 04 2024

Connect the Dots = Mystery Solved – Iran is about to be attacked by Israel after Iran’s bombardment of Israel last Saturday night. Can we know what happens next? Yes, if we connect the dots, we can see the relationship between different pieces of information. Iran will have a major defeat leading to a time of peace. Israel prophecy is clarified by understanding the Biblical events timeline. I think of it as connecting the dots. Instead of seeing unrelated events we begin to recognize a pattern unfolding that links the events to each other.

There are three modern day Israel events that reveal the pattern. They are the Holocaust, the Arab invasions of Israel’s new state, and then the intrusion of Iran into the mix. I am not prophesying; I am laying out simple prophetic Scriptures. If it is just from me it is subjective, but if it is revealed in the Bible we can take it to the bank. Each of the three events above are predicted in Scripture.

  1. The Holocaust is described in Psalm 102:1-12. Then comes the glorious promise of the time to favor Zion, the set time, in verse 13. This prophecy was historically fulfilled right after the Holocaust in 1948. “You will arise and have mercy on Zion; For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come.”
  2. The Arab Invasion is described in Psalm 83 and began the very next day after Israel declared their independence. Those countries continued warring against Israel for decades. But now we have seen peace treaties and the Abraham Accords that have ended the Psalm 83 War. However, it is not quite over because the terror proxies of Iran are still attacking. Iran has even attacked Israel directly. All of these have the same goal: the wiping out of Israel forever. Their argument is with Yehovah God Himself, and He has the final word. The prayer of Psalm 83 is that the enemies would fight each other as the Midianites did in Gideon’s day, which we have seen in the present. Keep praying that prayer.
  3. The Iranian Intrusion is an event out of timing with prophecy. Iran is part of the Ezekiel 38 Gog and Magog invasion. But there is a critical prophetic key to unlock the timing. Simply compare the nations listed in Psalm 83 with the nations listed in Ezekiel 38. They are two completely different lists. The first are the ones who now border Israel. The Ezekiel nations will be on the border of Israel after the end of the Psalm 83 War. But, the problem is that Iran is acting now, out of timing. Therefore, I conclude that they will have to be diminished or disabled in a very serious way. That is why I expect Israel to administer a major blow in the near future, so bad that Iran will not recover for a decade or more. A simple reading of Ezekiel 38:1-14 will reveal that the condition of Israel at the time of that invasion is one of extraordinary peace, certainly not true now, or in the first 75 years of Israel’s restoration. Look for the major setback of Iran followed by a flood of nations joining the Abraham Accords including Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and many more.

Gog and Magog? Not! Here are the seven phrases in Ezekiel 38 regarding Israel’s status before the Gog and Magog invasion. This is why I believe all the talk about that Gog invasion being imminent is mistaken. I was in Israel just last September and saw the 25 foot walls in many places. They will be removed when real peace comes and after that time of peace with their neighbors, then comes the Ezekiel 38 Invasion.

“they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely.” v. 8

Gog and Magog say: “I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates” v. 11

“when My people Israel dwell safely” v. 14

Please pray for the daily threats, developments and decisions right now. This is a critical point in history. God knows the end from the beginning and He has it all under control. His will is being done. Messiah Yeshua is with us and will never leave us or forsake us. 

“Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep… Yehovah shall preserve you from all evil; ​​He shall preserve your soul. Yehovah shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore.”  Psalm 121: 4, 7-8

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and wisdom in the time of war.

Abraham Accords Update

20 03 2021

Dry Bones Jersalem Incoming

Last week Kosovo and the Czech Republic opened embassies in Jerusalem. This week Netanyahu announced four more countries are close, including Niger, Mauritania, Indonesia, and one other (my guess is Serbia or Saudi Arabia). There will also be more African nations. Last year under President Donald Trump the Abraham Accords began with United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. The inertia set in motion last year has a life of its own and continues even with negative developments around the world. Jesus prophesied of this day.

And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.” Matthew 24:4-7

Notice He said “The end is not yet.” We are certainly in the last days; but there are also certain events still in play before the Messiah Yeshua comes. We are now seeing the Psalm 83 protagonists miraculously making peace and normalization agreements with Israel. This is right on track with prophecy because Israel must enjoy a secure season of peace so profound that they take down the walls that currently exist, especially around Jerusalem. The great Gog and Magog War can only commence at such a time of peace and only because that peace is what triggers the invasion by Turkey, Iran, Libya, and their evil coalition to destroy Israel. The spirit of Amalek never gives up until the Messiah ultimately returns to defeat it.

‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan: You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’— to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land. Ezekiel 38:10-12

It is so remarkable to be alive in these days of clear Biblical prophecy fulfilled nearly day by day. Hallelujah! Stay tuned and fasten your seat belt. I have read the end of the Book, and we win!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for seasonal rain.

Acceleration in Israel Prophecy

25 09 2020

Drybones cartoon,UAE, Abraham Peace Accords,Israel, Bahrain, Peace,Middle East,

Normalization with Israel is the “in” thing in the Middle East these days. What does it mean for prophecy? In a word… ACCELERATION! After our blessed ministry in Idaho the last two weeks it seems the prophecy news is coming faster than we can keep up. While we were gone, Israel normalized relations with UAE and Bahrain, were recognized by Serbia and Kosovo (who will open embassies in Jerusalem), Honduras announced it will put its embassy in Jerusalem before the end of the year and President Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize… twice (Mideast and Kosovo/Serbia). Don’t forget that Prime Minister Netanyahu was also nominated. Wow!

Gog and Magog? Do not look for Ezekiel 38 anytime soon. Israel must be living in such secure peace that they tear down all walls they have built as separation from the Arabs in recent years. Thus, the season of peace before the Gog and Magog war.

“After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely. — You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’ Ezekiel 38:8 & 11

Notice the bolded words above which unequivocally describe conditions that simply do not exist today in Israel. Therefore, the next prophetic event is not war with Iran, but an extraordinary (and surprising) peace.

I spoke all over Idaho (drove 2,220 miles) about my view that this is the end of the Psalm 83 War and the start of a time of peace that must be clearly in place before the Ezekiel 38 Gog & Magog War. I admitted I had been wrong expecting a final big battle to end the Psalm 83 scenario. Now we see an acceleration of other Arab and Muslim nations as well as other nations. It is interesting that this is all happening under the cloud (or distraction) of the pandemic. When the dust settles, the Middle East will be transformed. Notice that the Psalm 83 nations are not mentioned in Ezekiel 38. Israel’s borders and influence continue to expand to the promised extent of Yehovah’s purpose.

On the same day Yehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates. Genesis 15:18

Pray for the Messiah’s Peace of Jerusalem! Also, pray for rain as we approach the rainy season.

Israel’s New Peace Treaty?

Major breaking news today that Israel and UAE United Arab Emirates have made peace after 72 years of declared war from 1948. What does this mean? Is it good or bad news? For over a year I have maintained that Israel must enter a time of peace before the great Gog and Magog War of Ezekiel 38. Here is why…

“You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’— Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it? “ Ezekiel 38:11 & 14

Notice the underlined words: unwalled, safely, without walls, neither bars nor gates, and safely. Five points of emphasis that require concluding that this war is still future. Israel is not dwelling safely without walls today. They must enter a time of peace before the Gog and Magog war.

Therefore, I believe this new peace agreement is good. The downside is that Israel will suspend extending sovereignty into Judea and Samaria and the Jordan Valley, which the world calls the West Bank. More Arab states will soon follow, even Saudi Arabia. A further look at Ezekiel 38 reveals that these states are not listed among Israel’s enemies at that time.

My prayer is that the suspension of sovereignty will be short-lived. Even so, it will probably not happen before the US election. Pray that our pro-Israel President will still be in office to carry out Israel gaining more of the Promise Land.

Here are the details from the news FYI:

Trump announces ‘Historic Peace Agreement’ between Israel, UAE – United Arab Emirates and Israel agree to ‘full normalization’ of diplomatic relations

Jared Kushner: ‘Israel won’t move forward with sovereignty till time is right’Trump’s senior adviser Jared Kushner responds to Netanyahu’s vow to apply sovereignty, confirms sovereignty plan suspension is ‘temporary’.

Hailing ‘new era with Arab world,’ Netanyahu vows others will follow UAE’s lead –  Touting ‘full and formal peace’ with advanced, innovative Gulf nation, PM says Israelis will soon be flying direct to Abu Dhabi; insists annexation plan is only temporarily halted.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
