Retribution

Against God’s Land

Russia, Turkey, Iran, Libya, and Sudan are marching against Israel to kill and plunder the land.

Russia this week put up 2 satellites for Iran to guide their missiles

Coming with a great military force

V 15-16

like with Pharaoh God will show Himself Holy to the whole world

there will not be any professing atheist

remember what Rahab told the two spies who came into Jericho

we have heard what Yahweh did to Egypt and we have been afraid ever since

there was no one in the land of Caanan who did not know the power of God

this time there will be no one in the whole world

the horses — I am now thinking that this battle is part of the war of Armageddon

and there has been the tribulation so there might not be any war technology

and armies are back to swords and spears

so, defenceless Israel is surrounded by all these armies

God’s War

V 18-20

a great earthquake

level the ground

some have said that this could possibly be a nuclear weapon

but I don’t think so because of the aftermath of a nuclear weapon

I believe this is God shaking the earth

every one on earth will feel this earthquake

the fish in the ocean will be shook up

V 21

killing each other

V 22 -23

hail fire and brimstone

39 1-4

these birds are already there at the time of the great feast

carrion birds are returning to Israel

in the spring there is a great migration that go through Israel

many birds stop there now to rest and get fed for the final leg of their journey

V 5-6

God will then send fire to the nations who’s armies were sent to Israel

V 7-10

the weapon will be used for firewood for 7 years

V 11-13

for 7 months the people will bury the dead from these armies

V 14-16

make a city to house the burial detail

V 17-22

recap of the events

V 23-24

now that we have seen God winning this battle lets compare it to

Revelation

is this battle a part of the Battle of Armageddon?

we see a lot of similarities in revelation

speaking about this great earthquake

turn to Revelation 6 12-17.

11 19

16 17-21

19 11-21

the birds

Luke 17:34–37 LSB

“I tell you, on that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other will be left. “There will be two women grinding grain at the same place; one will be taken and the other will be left. [“Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left.”] And answering they said to Him, “Where, Lord?” And He said to them, “Where the body is, there also the vultures will be gathered.”

Revelation 19:21 LSB

And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sits on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.

as you can see this battle could happen at the end of the tribulation

The End

V 25

Israel will be again like the time of King Solomon rich

but they will be Godly unlike Solomon

God is jealous for His name

He promised Abraham Isaac and Jacob

Deuteronomy 9:4–6 LSB

“Do not say in your heart when Yahweh your God has driven them out before you, saying, ‘Because of my righteousness Yahweh has brought me in to possess this land,’ but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that Yahweh is dispossessing them before you. “It is not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart that you are going to possess their land, but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that Yahweh your God is dispossessing them before you, in order to confirm the oath which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. “So you shall know it is not because of your righteousness that Yahweh your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.

V 26-29

they will now live in the land securely

without fear

God is not slack about His promises

God Chose Abraham to bless

God chose the bride of Christ to save

Titus 3 3-7

God is good

God is merciful because without it we would not have any hope
