Approximately one year ago we were hearing many reports about what was termed the Arab Spring. This term described violent rioting in the streets of many of the capital cities in the Middle East. The result was the governments in Egypt and Libya were overthrown with the resulting new governments controlled by the terror group Muslim Brotherhood.
The current situation in parts of the Middle East could be called the new Arab Spring or Arab Spring II. The blog of last week informed us of the turbulent situation in Syria and now we hear of violence in the streets of Turkey between police and demonstrators.
Could these scenarios in Syria and Turkey plus the fact that Lebanon is already under control of the terror group Hezbullah be setting the stage for the Battle of Gog and Magog as described in Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39? In Ezekiel 38:14-16 The Lord God is speaking to Gog {leader of Russia} to come from your place in the North with a mighty army and come against My people Israel. This mighty army will consist of forces from Turkey, Iran and Libya as mentioned in the early verses of Ezekiel.
However, The Lord God wins a mighty victory for Israel. Ezekiel 38:21-23, The Lord God says "I will call for a sword against Gog. . . .I will bring him to pestilence and bloodshed. . . .then they shall know that I am The Lord." Why is the unrest in Syria and Turkey possibly setting the stage for the Battle of Gog and Magog? These countries are in the direct path of the "Invasion From The North" which this battle is commonly called. The current unrest seems to open the door for this invasion.
How do we pray regarding all of this since we know the Battle of Gog and Magog is in the future according to The Word of God? We need to pray boldly for Godly wisdom for the leaders of Israel and for God's hand of protection for those who live in Israel!
May The Lord Bless You And Keep You This Day And Each Day In His Care,
