“Operation Rising Lion”

Israel is finally delivering a devastating blow to the nuclear Iranian threat. For decades, Israel has listened to the belligerent calls for their destruction coming from the radical Islamic regime in Iran. During this same time, Iran planted radical terrorist proxy elements along Israel’s northern and southern borders. Hamas and Hezbollah, and other smaller Islamic groups, were trained and funded by Iran. Their goal was to bring about the annihilation of Israel. Their dream was illustrated in the barbaric Hamas invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023.

In the early hours of June 13, Israel began “Operation Rising Lion.” The Israeli attacks on Iran are ongoing as we speak. This operation has been meticulously and brilliantly planned by the Israelis for months. All levels of the Israeli intelligence agencies and the military worked with government leaders to masterfully plan for attacking Iran. As the early stages of this plan were carried out, we were amazed at the precision and success of this operation.

Israel has announced that this operation against Iran will continue until they accomplish their agenda. The IDF delivered a major blow to Iran’s military program. Nuclear facilities have been obliterated, military leaders eliminated, many key nuclear scientists assassinated, and other significant Iranian military sites destroyed. The elimination of Iran’s military infrastructure in Tehran has not been easy. Iran embedded its military in the civilian areas of the city’s population of 10 million people, putting them all in harms way.

Iran continues to demonstrate it will not surrender to demands calling for the complete elimination of their nuclear ambitions. The elimination of Iran’s nuclear threat will dramatically alter the balance of power in the Middle East. For decades, the radical Shiite policies of Iran have posed a threat to the Sunni Muslims in the Persian Gulf region. The defeat of Iran will have an impact upon the Sunni Muslims. It is believed that this will ultimately cause more Sunni states to join the Abraham Accords, aligning with those who are recognizing the Jewish state of Israel. This is moving the Middle East closer to the false covenant of the Antichrist.

Iran’s allies, including Russia, Turkey, and China, are verbally expressing their opposition to Israel’s attack of Iran. This is paving the way for the evil coalition that will invade Israel in the coming Ezekiel 38war of Gog and Magog. It is apparent that the Ezekiel 38 war is on the immediate horizon. The chronology of the biblical end-time events seems to indicate that this invasion of Israel will take place immediately before or after the Rapture of the church.

The prophetic Word of God gives us great insight into what is about to happen in Iran. It is apparent that an ancient prophecy in Jeremiah 49:34-39 is about to be fulfilled. This prophecy is about Elam, the ancient name for Iran. According to this prophecy, in the last days God “will break the bow [missiles] of Elam, and the chief [political leader] of their might” (verse 35). Furthermore, the prophecy continues to declare that something will take place in Iran that will cause Iran’s people to be internationally dispersed (verse 36). Then, Iran will be shamed by their enemies and God will “bring evil upon them” (verse 37).

It seems that this prophecy is about to be fulfilled. Could it be that Iran is about to suffer nuclear contamination due to the destruction of their nuclear facilities? This contamination would demand their expulsion from Iran. This would be followed by an evil Iranian remnant that would be joined by Russia and Turkey in the future Ezekiel 38 invasion of Israel. In Jeremiah 49:37, God promised “I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger [see Ezekiel 38:18-19], … and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them [at Gog and Magog].” Eventually, the godly remnant of Iran will return to their nation to serve the Lord in His Millennial Kingdom [verses 38-39].

Friends, the events unfolding in this war between Israel and Iran is forging the coalition of the Ezekiel 38 war. It is preparing the Sunni Muslim power base that will produce the Antichrist and set the stage for his headquarters in the Middle East.

The fireworks that will lead to the Tribulation are taking place right before our eyes!

Be ready for the shout that will take us out!
