End Time Wars - Part 1


Here is a summary of some of the End Time wars that will occur.  


Psalm 83

The first one is an attack on Israel from its neighbors.  This can be found in Psalm 83.  The Psalmist is saying that Israel’s neighbors will consult together and come against them.  They want to take possession of the Land.  He is asking that God protect Israel from the attack and that he consume their enemies like a fire and terrify them with a hurricane.  That they may seek God and know He is the Most High.  
In verse 4 it says 4 They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”

Almost verbatim this is what nations are saying about Israel today. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said that “Israel must be wiped off the map.” http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/27/world/africa/wipe-israel-off-the-map-iranian-says.html?mcubz=3

Iran test-fired two ballistic missiles in March of 2016 that carried the Hebrew message “Israel must be wiped out. http://www.newsweek.com/iran-fires-ballistic-missiles-marked-israel-must-be-wiped-out-434989

In a speech October 2017 by Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, he called for the ethnic cleansing of all Jews in Israel, the destruction of the Jewish state and told Israelis to begin a “count down to death.” Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2017/10/count-down-days-to-death-in-israel/#FYmcebA1SP5qBMK1.99

Here is a list of nations that Psalm 83 says will come against Israel.



The Psalm does not say what the final outcome will be only that he is praying for their victory.

Zechariah 12:6 says 6“On that day I will make the clans of Judah (That’s Israel) like a blazing pot in the midst of wood, like a flaming torch among sheaves. And they shall devour to the right and to the left all the surrounding peoples,Those, on the right, left and those surrounding them will be devoured. This sounds like victory to me.


The next one is The Destruction of Damascus in 

Isaiah 17

The Bible says Damascus will be destroyed overnight.  Damascus has had wars, where part of the city has seen destruction but it has never ceased from being a city. It is the oldest inhabited city in the world.  Damascus is the capital of Syria and it is where they have chemical weapons stored.  This could be a danger to other countries. It does not say who destroys the city.  This may be how Israel responds to the attack from Syria.  This could occur before or during the Psalm 83 war. 
These are some verses in Isaiah 17 – Verse 1, An oracle concerning Damascus. Behold, Damascus will cease to be a city and will become a heap of ruins.

Verse 9 In that day their strong cities will be like the deserted places of the wooded heights and the hilltops, which they deserted because of the children of Israel, and there will be desolation. 10 For you have forgotten the God of your salvation and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge;

Verse 14 At evening time, behold, terror! Before morning, they are no more! This is the portion of those who loot us, and the lot of those who plunder us.

This war is an attack on Israel lead by Russia

Ezekiel 38-39

You may hear this war called the war of Gog and Magog.  Gog is referred to as a chief prince of the land Magog, which is the northern countries.  I think Gog could be a name of a demonic prince due to Daniel 11:13.

I will use the countries modern names that most Biblical scholars agree upon.  If you have a chance these are interesting chapters to read.  In the first part of 38 God is saying he is against Russia and Turkey.  In verse 4 he says And I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, and all your army.

Ezekiel says that Russia and Turkey will come with Iran, Sudan, Ethiopia, Libya, Algeria, and Tunisia. Some scholars think that the area of Armenia and Somalia may be included.

Muslims countries gather because they want the Jewish race eliminated. The hook in the jaw for Russia could be oil. Israel discovered a massive oil reserves in the Golan heights and another one right off its shore line. This is a threat to Russia. They want to be a superpower in the region. Russia is Europe largest oil provider. Since their oil find, Israel is looking to export oil to Europe and this poses a threat to Vladimir Putin. Gaining control over the Israeli oil reserves could be the reason they team up with the Muslim nations and attack Israel. We can only guess as to what that hook is, that God will use, to bring them to judgement.

Ezekiel 38:8, In the latter years you will go against the land that is restored from war. Possibly a reference to the Psalm 83 war.

Verses 9-11 You will advance, coming on like a storm. You will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your hordes, and many peoples with you. 10“Thus says the Lord GOD: On that day, thoughts will come into your mind, and you will devise an evil scheme 11 and say, ‘I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will fall upon the quiet people who dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having no bars or gates.   Currently, Israel has boarder fences and walls all around, but if, in the Psalm 83 war, all their neighbors were defeated, they could live securely without walls or gates. Notice that in the war Ezekiel describes, none of Israel’s direct neighbors are involved. It would seem odd that they would not join in the fight since they hate Israel. There is no mention of Egypt, Jordan, Gaza, Lebanon, or Syria. I believe they will be greatly incapacitated in the Psalm 83 war. Therefore, I think Ezekiel 38 & 39 will follow the Psalm 83 war.

Right now, Israel has walls up protecting them from their neighbors that want to harm the Jewish Nation. They are constantly being bombarded with rockets from Gaza. For them to not to have walls and be living in safety will probably mean that their neighboring threats will no longer be there. Israel has bomb sirens going off all the time. I read an article in USA today that was talking about one Elementary school near Gaza. They don’t have a Merry Go Round because it takes too long to stop it and run to the shelter when a bomb siren goes off. They usually have 15 seconds to run into the bomb shelter before it hits. Israel’s Iron Dome can destroy some of the bombs before they land but not all of them. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/07/10/israel-gaza-rockets-sderot/12486413/

Ezekiel 38:19-22 describes how God will fight for Israel. God says there will be a great earthquake that will cause the mountains to fall, and everyone on the earth will quake at God’s presence. He will bring about torrential rains and hailstones. He said there will be pestilence and bloodshed and every man’s sword shall be against his brother. There will be fire and sulfur, which could be a volcano.

Ezekiel 39:1-6 says God will cause Russia and Turkey to come from the north, to the mountains of Israel, where they will fall.

Ezekiel 39:7 “And my holy name I will make known in the midst of my people Israel, and I will not let my holy name be profaned anymore. And the nations shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.

Verse 22 The house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God, from that day forward.

Verse 29 And I will not hide my face anymore from them, when I pour out my Spirit upon the house of Israel, declares the Lord GOD.”

Israel has not known security since they were re-established in their land in 1948. They have faced multiple wars and this little country the size of NJ comes out victorious in all of them. The Bible does not say when the war Ezekiel describes will occur, other than in the last days. I believe it will be after the Pre-Tribulation rapture because Israel’s eyes have been opened to God and God is no longer hiding from them.

Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.

I believe the fullness of the Gentiles happens at the pre-trib rapture of the church and after that God turns his attention back to Israel. They will see God fight for them and they will turn to him.

2 Corinthians 3:16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
