Zechariah 14:2-4 –2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city. 3 Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights in the day of battle. 4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south.
How many nations are friends of Israel today? If you said the U.S., this current administration is not. Currently Israel is hanging on that thread of nobody hardly being in their corner. Because they are the only democracy over there and because there is still some good support from the people in the United States they get a little support. Canada is still friendly but not as much of a worldly presence.
Not even Hitler used the open language of his plan and the annihilation of the Jews as clearly as the leadership of Iran today. Hitler also didn’t have most of the Jews back in their land or nuclear capability. The President and the Ayatollah of Iran have repeatedly said they will use their capabilities to try and end Israel.
What has the world done? Basically nothing.
Why? Because they have the support of Russia and that could lead to a world war.
Who are the main big players in the last days to go against Israel in Ezekiel 38 & 39? Russia which is called Gog and the old Persia which is now the Iran/Iraq area.
We know that Iran’s wishes are religious and spiritual. But what about an unspiritual Russia? Russia for the last 70 years has always been about domination and growing. There is a nice south port down in Israel amongst the oil. Many also believe that Israel is on top of a major amount of oil or in drilling distance themselves. If your Russia that seems like an opportunity to further your goal.
Will that happen successfully? As we read above, it will not. The Lord Himself comes down to fight against those nations.
Israel has the most important Friend at that time. A Friend that will keep His promise which He made to Abraham long ago.
