Ultimately, every war that takes place in the Middle East slowly moves the nations of the world to the final war - Armageddon...
The Bible makes it clear that the nations have a destiny. That the land of Israel exists today and is surrounded by nations that hate her is not happenstance.
There is a "spirit of anti-Semitism" that exists, which has permeated our natural world. There is a spirit world, too, that hates the Jews along with all people and nations who love Israel and want to help her.
One day, say the ancient prophets, the City of Jerusalem will become a "cup of trembling" unto all people. And at this time those on the earth who hate the Jews will be "gathered together against it" (Zechariah 12:1-9).
And today, even if the actual battle of Armageddon is still a long way off,* I see how more and more people are beginning to hate the United States.
I believe that this increasing hatred for America and her citizens is being inspired by demons. It is part of a plan now being developed deep in the hearts of wicked men to damage and destroy the United States in every way possible because of America's support for Israel.
It would take pages to explain the workings of Bible prophecy. Yet, God has laid it all out in His Word. And a day is coming when multitudes of people throughout the world will be turning to the Holy Scriptures for the answers to what is going on in the world.
Right now, however, those who are in our Armed Forces and who are serving in the Middle East need our prayers. Evil can be beaten back, even if it is only for a season. God does answer prayer. The spiritual forces that have inspired terrorists to kill America's troops can be toppled. But God-fearing people must pray.
