Advance Elam, make your move Media!

In this verse, it seems that God is actually encouraging Iran to attack Israel. It’s like Clint Eastwood saying; C’mon, make my day!

Do not doubt, Iran will attempt to carry out its threats to annihilate Israel. They will do this for several reasons:

1/ The Islamic leadership of Iran is in trouble, the Iranian people no longer support their incompetent and repressive rule.

2/ The Mullah’s believe it is their destiny to bring about the advent of the 12th Imam, the Islamic Mahadi.

3/ The economy is in a shambles, partly due to the sanction imposed because of their nuclear program and to mismanagement and corruption.

4/ A scapegoat is needed to divert the attention of the people and note the rhetoric of Ayatollah Khomeini; ‘We do not worship Iran, we worship Allah. For patriotism is another name for paganism. I say let this land burn, let this land go up in smoke, provided Islam emerges triumphant’. Quote 1980

And Ahmadinejad said: ‘Israel will cease to exist, we will remove the cancer from our midst’. This remains the case now, in 2019 and Iran just waits for the opportune moment to commence their attack on Israel. That moment will be God’s Appointed Day, Habakkuk 2:3, Revelation 6:12-17

5/ But Bible prophesy is the best indication we have that very soon Iran and all the Islamic peoples: Psalms 83:6-8, will commence their attack on Israel.

Isaiah 21:2b...Advance Elam, up Media: To the siege! Do not hesitate!

Isaiah 22:6 Elam took up the quiver, the war chariots of Aram are readied and Kir has uncovered the shield.

Isaiah 22:8a The heart of Judah’s defenses are laid open.

Jeremiah 49:35-39 I shall break the bow of Elam, the chief weapon of their might. I shall bring the four winds against them and will scatter them. I will terrify Elam before their foes and bring evil upon them, in My fierce anger, I will consume them with My sword until I have made an end to them. Then I shall set My throne in Elam and destroy their rulers and officers. Yet, in days to come I will restore the fortunes of Elam.

Ezekiel 7:14 The war trumpet has sounded and all are ready, but no war happens, as their actions have brought forth the wrath of the Lord. Ref: REB, verses abridged.


Elam and Media: now Iran. Aram: now Syria. Kir: probably Iraq or Turkey.

Judah’s defenses laid open – This may refer to Isaiah 21:2a, how a traitor will betray Israel and possibly the loss of their good leadership, as per Isaiah 3:1-7, Micah 5:1

I shall break the bow of Elam, their chief weapon. - Their nuke weapons are destroyed. Psalms 7:12-16, Hosea 2:18, Jeremiah 49:35

The Lord’s anger will consume them. – As described in Psalms 83:13-17... the Lord’s enemies will be scattered like chaff, with blazing flames and tempests of storm winds, they will suffer disgrace and perish. Zephaniah 1:14-18, Ezekiel 30:1-5

The strongholds of Islam will be destroyed, it and the other false religions will be no more. Isaiah 66:15-17, Hebrews 10:27

The wrath of the Lord – This will be the great and terrible Day of the Lord’s vengeance and wrath, a comprehensively prophesied judgement by fire, described to us as an explosion on the suns surface, a Coronal Mass Ejection . It will literally fulfil the Sixth Seal and the 100+ prophesies about that Day; resulting in the fulfilment of the punishment of all the nations. Habakkuk 3:12, Psalms 2:8-9, 2 Peter 3:7

Ezekiel 7:14 The trumpet [of war] has sounded and all are ready, but no-one goes to war as their turmoil has called forth My wrath.
This clearly stated prophecy tells us that the Lord will take action at the moment of attack, as many other prophesies attest. Psalms 83, Psalms 11:4-6, Zephaniah 1:14-18, Isaiah 66:15-17, 2 Peter 3:7, +

The Lord will awaken and take action to destroy His enemies. Isaiah 51:5-9, Zephaniah 3:8, Romans 1:18, +
We should know about it and be prepared physically and spiritually for all that must happen, commencing very soon as Iran WILL try to do what they have so clearly said they will: attack Israel. That will be their doom; Jeremiah 49:35-37, Ezekiel 32:24-25

All you need to know is right there in
KJV- Rev. 9

[13] And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
[14] Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

[15] And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for
an hour
, and
a day, and
a month
,
and a year, [a specific date] for [only one reason] to slay [kill] the third part of men.

[16] And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
[17] And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

[18] By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

[19] For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
[20] And the rest of the men [on the earth] which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
[21] Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
.
References:
2 Thes. 2[3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away [from faith] first,
and that man of sin [the natural man] be revealed, the son of perdition;
.
Luke 18[8] I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

As I prefer to not mess with the given sequence of Revelation, I believe the Seals are first, as is logical with an actual scroll.
Logically and analytically is how we think, but for God, that may not be so.
Isaiah 55[8] For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
[9] For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
John 16
[13] Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

My point is, without faith in God, to believe that He is, there is no repentance.
Hence my scripture selections of Luke 18:8 and
2 Thes. 2:3.
The Age of God's Grace and longsuffering, for all to come to repentance, will have ended. 2 Peter 3:9

Sorry, Donald Trump, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton and Bibi Netanyahu, but Iran (Persia of Ezekiel 38) won't be destroyed by ITSELF by the USA or by Israel. Iran will be destroyed by God Almighty only when Iran joins forces with Russia, Turkey, Libya, Sudan in amassing a mighty army to march against Israel.
