AS I SEE IT NOW, EZEKIEL 38 AND 39 MAY BE HAPPENING
I think Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip will rue this day, October 7, 2023. They never should have done it. I can think of nothing that may infuriate Israel more than what they have done.
Israel is at war with Hamas once again. How many times? This time, Hamas launched 5,000 rockets at the little country. This time there is no softness in the heart of the leadership. This time, I think, Israel intends to smash Hamas once and for all. And this time Israel may plan to go after Iran, who supplied the weapons and money to Hamas in Gaza. Many civilians will be casualties, and prisoners of war may as well count themselves dead. On both sides. Israel believes in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. As a matter of fact, Syria, being a proxy of Iran will come under attack as well. And a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip might occur.
I also think that Lebanon, a proxy of Iran also, will probably enter the fray. Also, look for Egypt (the king of the south) to join against Israel. And it may not be long before Turkey steps in. This means the United States must come to the aid of Israel and may also step in. It is beginning to look a lot like Ezekiel 38 and 39 to me. It must therefore be that our rescue will come very soon?
It will do the United Nations no good to try to intervene this time. Israel believes that enough is enough! I don't think Israel will stop this time because to stop just puts off the inevitable to another time.
Gaza Strip schools will house terrorists as will hospitals and even homes. Human shields will be the marching orders of Hamas. This group knows no mercy. These are pure terrorists. Their hatred of Israel is without limit.
Turkey is the Bible's king of the north. A perfectly drawn straight line from Jerusalem to the north pole runs directly through Ankara, the capital city of Turkey. It does not go through Moscow, Russia. It is Turkey that is in view in Ezekiel 38 and 39 as the king of the north. Does this war mean Turkey will intervene on behalf of Hamas? Of Lebanon? Against the United States? We will have to wait and see. But given the lateness of prophetical time, I imagine that when it finally ends, it will be when they, Israel, says “peace and safety”. Then will come sudden destruction as recorded in (I Thess. 5:3).
Is this destruction nuclear? I don't know, but it could be against America for getting involved on behalf of Israel..
It is at that point that we may be going home at last. I speculate that it will be this year, 2023. I further think it may be either October 28/29 or November 1/2. Maybe by Hallowe'en? Our removal may then be All Saints Day November 1, 2023? The harvest of souls could begin then also? A count of 120 days for the harvest leads us to February 28, 2024. It is only 40 days more to the great second swath caused by a solar eclipse that forms the great X over America and that date will be April 8, 2024, exactly 280 days after July 4, 2023. Remember the great importance of 280 days to God.
The annular eclipse today, October 14, 2023 may also be a harbinger that America may suffer something in the western half of the nation by October 28 or Hallowe'en?
If this is true, the war with Hamas that began on October 7 may last 21 days or 3 weeks leading to October 28, 2023. That is the anniversary of the day that Barack Obama delivered his speech to millions in 2008, just 15 years ago, preceding his bid to become America's President. He became that, of course. Is this also a reflection of war in heaven? Go back and read Daniel 10, to find the first Bible account of war in heaven and why it occurred. Our rescue is almost identical to the rescue of the Israelites from Babylonian captivity back then. So, is now the time of Satan and his unholy angels being cast down as recorded in Revelation 12? Or is there yet to be another time of war when the casting down is to be done? Will it also last 21 days, just like in Daniel's day?
If this war with Hamas lasts 21 days and no more or less, I will have my answer.
Pray very much and very hard.
