As we watch events unfold around the world at this hour, we need to keep our eyes on Psalm 2<\/a>. This psalm is a prophetic commentary on what is happening now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verse one<\/a>– \u201cWhy do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?\u201d<\/em> The word \u201crage\u201d speaks of an open defiance and disorderly conduct. Our world is erupting into disruptive chaos that glorifies and clamors for evil. Evil brings death and destruction. It is no wonder that God says, \u201cthe people imagine a vain thing.\u201d<\/em> These people are asking for their own demise. The people who glorify Hamas are in love with evil. They will get what they want. The Islamic terrorists will march across the globe during the Tribulation Period, killing, raping, and pillaging as they go. I am convinced that the four riders of the horses in Revelation 6:1-8<\/a> represent the global jihad of the Antichrist at the beginning of the Tribulation Period. The events that happened in Israel on October 7th<\/sup> are a little window into global events that will transpire around the world every day for seven very long years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verse 2<\/a>– \u201cThe kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed.\u201d<\/em> It is apparent that the United Nations and all the nations around the globe are siding with Islam. They are chanting for the destruction of Israel and the Jews. They would rather have Hamas than Israel. They are against the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They are against God\u2019s \u201canointed\u201d<\/em> [the word here is messiah]. They are against Jesus. Therefore, they hate Jews and Christians. This will be the trademark of the Antichrist and his global kingdom. They will kill believers in Jesus by beheading them (Revelation 20:4<\/a>). The antichrist will blaspheme the name of the God of the Bible (Daniel 11:36; Revelation 13:6<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verse 3<\/a>– \u201cLet us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.\u201d <\/em>The references to \u201cband\u201d<\/em> and \u201ccords\u201d <\/em>point to the binding commandments of God. These evil people want to be set free from the law of God. They want total freedom to express their depravity. God says we are to not have any other gods before Him (Exodus 20:3-5<\/a>). The crowds around the world are chanting, \u201cAllah is greater.\u201d Allah is not the God of the Bible. They are calling for the worship of another god. It is not an accident that Hamas attacked Israel on the Sabbath day (Saturday). God demanded Israel to keep the sabbath day as a holy day (Exodus 20:3<\/a>). When Hamas attacked Israel, they rebelled against all of God\u2019s last six commandments in Exodus 20:12-17<\/a>. Read them and think about this. Evil people are glorifying this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notice God\u2019s response to these rebels. First, He will laugh at them (verse 4<\/a>). How stupid for man to think He can oppose God and His commandments. Second, He will \u201cspeak to them in his wrath and vex [terrify] them\u201d<\/em> (verse 5<\/a>). They want terror. He will give them terror! Terror will rule over the nations for seven years! Third, God will set His Son, the Jewish Messiah, upon his \u201choly hill of Zion\u201d <\/em>(verse 6<\/a>). Hamas used the Jewish peoples\u2019 visits to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem as an excuse to invade Israel. Islam claims that the Temple Mount belongs to them and not to the Jews. They claim that that Jews have no right to this holy mountain and that it is an Islamic holy site. God will answer by placing His Son on the throne of David on the Temple Mount for 1,000 years (see photo). Jesus will rule over all the nations in His glorious kingdom (verses 7-9<\/a>). Fourth, God demands that all the kings and judges of the nations serve and honor Him (verse 11<\/a>). He warns them that their rebellion against Him are stoking the fires of His holy wrath (verse 12<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
