Iran

 



When I woke up about an hour ago and looked at the news feeds on the situation in the Middle East, I became alarmed. 

    We all know that Iran has been working on their nuclear capability and they have the destruction of Israel in mind. Things are escalating to an alarming degree right now. We also know we are living in the end of days. But with the very real threat of a third world war, Israel being at the centre, things are taking on Biblical proportions.

    If we look at the map above and see the size of Iran and the size of Israel, it is difficult to believe that all the countries around Israel have not only threatened her with extinction, but have actually taken action towards that end. Now, HUGE Iran is about to attack TINY Israel. May they fail miserably, and may all their rockets and missiles return to sender.

    As I was reading the daily aliyah, my eyes fell on Verse 30 & 31 of Chapter 4, which I had marked out last year:

    "In thy distress, when all these things are come upon thee, in the end of days, thou wilt return to the LORD thy God, and hearken unto His voice; for the LORD thy God is a merciful God; He will not fail thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which He swore unto them."

    As we pray for Israel to turn back to God, how comforting it is to hear God say this.

    Israel is the barometer for the rest of the world. What happens there will happen everywhere - it's just a matter of time. So don't think you and I are immune. We're not. We need to use the time to repent and draw close to God. The days are short. Messiah will return soon. What will He find?
