As with many other countries, Russia is responding to Israel’s current invasion of Gaza with remarks of hatred toward the Jewish state. Yesterday, November 2, Russia’s UN representative stated that Israel does not have the right to defend itself. We must remember that this twisted kind of morality is coming from the mind of someone who supports their country’s invasion of Ukraine.
A few days ago, a plane from Israel landed in a major city in Russia. Russian Muslims stormed the airport and demanded to have access to the Jewish passengers on the aircraft. Thankfully, they were not given access and the Israeli passengers were flown to another destination. It is disturbing that the Russian leaders did not condemn their own people for seeking to kill or harm these innocent Jewish people.
Incidents like these signal that the momentum of hatred for Israel in China, Russia, Turkey, and Iran indicates that the battle of Gog and Magog in Ezekiel 38 is on the immediate horizon. According to Ezekiel’s ancient prophecy, the Russian, Iranian, and Turkish armies will be supernaturally defeat by God on the mountains of Israel (Ezekiel 38:19-22). It will take Israel seven months to bury the remains of these dead soldiers (Ezekiel 39:11-16). It is interesting to note that these remains will be buried in the valley of Hamon-gog. This is very near the remains of the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Russia has demonstrated for decades that they support the Palestinians and Arabs in the struggle with Israel over the Promised Land. (See photo of Russian President Putin and Palestinian leader Abbas.) They have supplied them weapons to use against Israel.
God is about to display to the entire world His glory as He defends His chosen people, Israel. God has said, “Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought” (Isaiah 41:12).
