Trump’s Iran Timeline

19 02 2026

President Trump has given several indications of his timeline, but does the Bible agree? When he met with Bibi Dec 29th in Mar-A-Largo they spoke of a “two month timeline.” Today he spoke of a ten day window. Both refer to action by the end of this month. On Jan 4th I spoke at Grace Assembly on: “Turning the Page.” I believe we are at global prophetic turning point at the scale of the fall of the Berlin wall, the 1948 return of the state of Israel, and the Israeli capture of old Jerusalem in the 1967 Six Day War. Eliminating Iran and its terrorist proxies will usher in an extraordinary time of peace for Israel and the Middle East. But I don’t conclude that from geo-political events, but rather from the Bible.

For some time I have seen this coming season of peace from the conditions Ezekiel revealed about Israel dwelling “without walls” at the time of the Gog & Magog invasion of Ezekiel 38. The removal of Iran as a threat to Israel and the region is necessary to meet Ezekiel’s description. Recently I have seen a clear prophecy of Iran in Jeremiah 49:34-39.

“Judgment on Elam34 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying, 35 “Thus says the LORD of hosts: ​‘​Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, ​​The foremost of their might. 36 ​​Against Elam I will bring the four winds ​​From the four quarters of heaven, ​​And scatter them toward all those winds; ​​There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go. 37 ​​For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies ​​And before those who seek their life. ​​I will bring disaster upon them, ​​My fierce anger,’ says the LORD; ​‘​And I will send the sword after them ​​Until I have consumed them. 38 ​​I will set My throne in Elam, ​​And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says the LORD. 39 ​‘​But it shall come to pass in the latter days: ​​I will bring back the captives of Elam,’ says the LORD.”

Here is a very short overview. First, note that Elam refers to the whole nation of Iran (scroll down to the lexicon entry). Second, note that the verses are chronological beginning with v. 35, the overthrow of the Shah in 1979, followed by Iranians exiled to all countries in v.36. These two events have happened. Verse 37 brings us to the present where evil leaders will be consumed by the sword which is sent by Yehovah Himself. Also during this time God sets His throne there. You have probably heard reports that three million or more Iranians have turned to Jesus, giving Him the throne over their lives. One report said that there may be more Christians now in Iran than Muslims. The last verse then declares the return of the exiles and that it occurs in the “last days.” Hallelujah!

This is happening soon. It may not be in ten days, but it is God’s plan. Pray for protection for the Iranian freedom lovers, Israel, our U.S forces, and the surrounding nations.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Decision Time

8 01 2026

While Americans are consumed with news about Venezuela and Minnesota something profound is happening in Iran and Gaza. I believe the first two months of 2026 will witness major prophetic events. Of course the Western hemisphere is important, but let’s focus on the Middle East. The Egypt/Gaza border is about to open, releasing over a million Gaza civilians to flee the war zone for the first time. This will lead to Israel disarming and finally defeating Hamas. At the same time, Iran is on the brink and will finally have regime change. Demonstrations now involve over 130 cities and growing, with reports of even military and security forces defecting. Multiple sources are reporting that the Ayatollah has plans to escape to Russia. Decisions are being made in Jerusalem, Washington, Venezuela, Iran, and many places that will prove to be the fulfillment of God’s plan. It is exciting to be alive at this time to pray in agreement with God.

“Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yehovah is near in the valley of decision. The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will diminish their brightness. Yehovah also will roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem; the heavens and earth will shake; But Yehovah will be a shelter for His people, and the strength of the children of Israel.”  Joel 3:14-16

There have been specific times in history where Yehovah God Himself intervenes to fulfill His prophetic promises. I refer to those times as God “turning the page.” This is such a time. Above human events there is a Divine moment where God’s hand touches earth. Just as Peter recognized Pentecost as: “This is that” which was prophesied by Joel, we are in a “this is that” moment. Last Sunday I spoke at Grace Assembly of God in Wake Forest on the subject: “It’s Time to Turn the Page!” (Here is the video link. Scroll down halfway and the message starts at 37 min.) Don’t miss the time of God’s visitation. Do you see His hand, or are you fearfully only seeing man’s feeble rebellion? As the cliche goes: “I have read the end of the Book. We win!”

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the momentous decisions by nations, leaders, and by people.

The Collapse of Iran

Iran is destined to collapse in the near future. Since I discovered the juxtaposition of Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38; it has been clear that Iran must diminish for a time. Israel must come into an extraordinary peace before the Gog and Magog War of Ezekiel 38. There are two compelling Biblical reasons for this.

#1 – Both prophecies name specific countries around Israel. But, none of those named in Psalm 83 are repeated in Ezekiel 38. Why? I believe the Abraham Accords will continue to expand creating real peace with all of Israel’s immediate Arab neighbors. (See Isaiah 19.) Therefore, the timing issue requires a substantial period of peace before Gog and Magog. Also, Ezekiel 38 is clear (several times) that the invasion occurs when Israel has taken down the walls which now dot the landscape, especially around Jerusalem, and they are dwelling without gates in “a land of unwalled villages.”

#2 – Iran/Persia is not named in Psalm 83, but is a major player with Turkey in Ezekiel. Therefore, Iran must diminish or collapse in the present. It is simply not their time yet. They will not expand at this time, but their time will come later. I have been predicting the diminishing of Iran for several years. It is now becoming evident.

Experts are now suggesting major faults in many areas of the Iranian regime. It may fall the same way the Soviet Union fell in the 90’s. The Ayatollah is reportedly near death and the government is very shaky. The economy is collapsing. Israel is poised to eliminate the nuclear threat as soon as necessary. In addition, there are more than five distinct minorities in Iran that are plotting a coup against the Ayatollah as early as March next year, about four months from now. Only about half of Iran’s population is Persian. The rest are various ethnic minorities such as Turks, Kurds, Arabs, Azeris, and others. For more on this watch a two minute interview with Dr. Mordechai Kedar, a MidEast expert from Bar-Ilan University in Israel. It starts at about 5:40 into the video.

As the Arab nations make peace there are still terrorist groups that must also disappear including Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria. These will fall from within according to the prayer of Psalm 83.

Deal with them as with Midian, Psalm 83:9

Gideon’s victory over the Midianites was because Yehovah caused a terror to sweep over them and they killed each other in the confusion. That is the prayer of Psalm 83 for today’s enemies of Israel. Let it be done according to God’s word!

Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before Yehovah our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. Psalm 95:6-7 NLT

He will not let you stumble; the one who watches over you will not slumber. Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps. Yehovah himself watches over you! Yehovah stands beside you as your protective shade. Psalm 121:3-5 NLT

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain this week in Israel.
