Iran is about to strike Israel

US National Security Adviser calls Iran’s attack against Israel ‘a significant escalation
Following Iran’s launch of 200 missiles into Israel on Tuesday, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan called the attack a “significant escalation.”

He added, “We have made clear that there will be consequences, severe consequences, for this attack, and we will work with Israel to make that the case,” said Sullivan.

As sirens were sounded off all over the country and Israeli residents were told to shelter in place, there were no reported casualties from the massive attack.
Sullivan characterized Iran’s offensive as “defeated and ineffective.”

Sullivan reported that “US naval destroyers joined Israeli air defense units in firing interceptors to shoot down” some 200 “inbound missiles.”

Before the strike by Iran several Israelis were saying they were best to wait for Iran to strike first so that Israel would get support from the US and the world, such as it is instead of instant retaliation by everyone if they took out Iran's nukes for example as a pre-emptive strike.

So now Iran has done what they wanted, and it makes Israel's job a little easier- with the US admin forced to support them at least in public.

Makes me think about the Elam prophecies. Because in Jeremiah 49 and Ezek 32 Elam (not Persia) is hit. Yet Persia survives to become part of the Ezek 38 prophecy.

So there is some limited strike that doesn't eliminate Iran but deals with the "foremost" of her might. Which sounds like missile systems as Bill Salus points out in his books dealing with Elam prophecies and how that goes with what Bill calls the Now prophecies I think it is or maybe the Next prophecies. It's been a while since I read those books.

But this is exactly what Bill has been saying for a while. And a few days ago he made the point that the missiles aimed at Israel were situated on the western shores of Iran, right where ancient Elam sat.

Don Koenig here: Expect Rapture 2024 2025 2026 - said something interesting in that article:

"The ongoing war will spread to the north and then Iran will be dealt with. I do not believe Israel goes it alone against Iran. The following wording in Jeremiah 49:36 suggests Elam (the Persian Gulf coast) will be attacked by air from many directions.


And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.

Iran now has missiles that can hit Europe. They and the Arab nations are not going to allow Iran to have nuclear weapons to threaten their cities.


After Iran is dealt with by the world, the Saudi backed Abraham Accords will happen and Israel will sign the seven-year covenant with the person who will become the Antichrist.
"

I thought Don makes a good point that Israel doesn't go alone into this fight against Iran. Seems to be shaping up like he and Bill Salus said.

Time will tell but I think God, the world, and the demonic realm is focused on that cup of trembling, Jerusalem. Very very focused.
 
We could be going Home soon. Or, Israel will finish destroying her enemy neighbors, and dismantle Iran, thus leaving Israel living secure. We dont know how long Israel will dwell in such security before EZ 38 kicks off. Russia, IMO, is in no position at this time to lead a coalition to attempt an attack on Israel. Until they deal with Ukraine, they don't have the capability to engage in another war at the same time. So, could this mean we may have a few years or longer left? Only He knows.

Going home sounds soooo
Good right now 😊
 
VERY STRATEGIC. Looks like Israeli strikes knocked out all radar systems in southern Syria today, possibly clearing the way for....something HUGE.

Before Israel attacks Iran, THEY WILL TAKE OUT THE SYRIAN AND IRANIAN RADAR SITES that have been set up the past few months especially.

Then…ISRAEL CAN BEGIN THEIR ATTACK.

Is this for the Damascus attack? Not necessarily.

But Israel’s plan is to take out the high end Iranian radar sites in Syria.

BEFORE HITTING IRAN 🇮🇷

We’re getting closer to seeing some MAJOR ATTACKS COMING the next few days…
From ALL sides.


Israel will take out any anti-aircraft radar along the path they plan to fly to Iran. That would most likely be in Syria and Iraq. If they're going to linger over Iran they'll do the same in Iran. If they're going to do a one and done they may not focus on the anti-aircraft radars in Iran as most of them can't see the F-35 anyway. In Iran they might just take out any that might prove troublesome. If they plan a multi-day destruction of Iranian military assets they might take out nearly all of the anti-aircraft radar systems in advance.

It's a little side note but i found it interesting in the vid that i posted for Bibi's speech that he made reference to the Iranian's as Persians
 
***Beautiful testimony of God's Hand at work while missiles were raining on Israel.....

*From Amir's Telegram:

I really don’t think you understand the absolute miracles that we witnessed last night here in Israel.

In fact, I am sure you don’t.

Let’s break this down.

Israel has three air defense systems, each one of them a technological wonder and that’s not me saying it. That’s Dr. Gold who basically invented the Iron Dome who told me that. The level and sophistication of the Iron Dome is simply unparalleled.

But the Iron Dome only knows how to detonate short range rockets or missiles within a 70 km range, give or take.

Then Israel has the David’s Sling system. That knows how to deal with mid range missiles up to approximately 300 km.

Then we have the Arrow system that literally detonates missiles that can fly outside of the earth’s atmosphere. That has a range of about 2,400 km!! 🤯

Last night, as Iran rained down ballistic missiles on Israel, all three defense systems were activated and implemented to perfection.

The chances of all of these incredibly complex systems working in unison as flawlessly as they did last night, are basically non existent.

If one thing went wrong, if one of those ballistic missiles hit an apartment building, a shopping center, or an army base, we would now be burying hundreds of Israelis.

And all of that is not even the biggest miracle.

A few hours ago, I got a WhatsApp message from a good friend who is a senior executive at Microsoft and who wasn’t exactly a God fearing Jew. Until yesterday.

Here is what he wrote me.

“If you’re looking for miracles man - last night I started believing. Missiles hit all around me but none of them hit my house or any house, for that matter.”

He elaborated some more and shared info about the missiles that he watched land just meters away from very strategic places in Israel, to say the least.

Each one of those defense systems is, in and of itself, pretty miraculous, but what is even more insane is the low casualty numbers from the rockets and missiles that we’re NOT intercepted.

Where did those missiles go? I’ll tell you where. They landed in sand, in water, and in “Empty spaces”.

Have you been to Israel? It’s a microscopic country. What empty spaces? Where are these empty spaces? 🤷‍♂️

How have hundreds of Iranian ballistic missiles all either get detonated by miraculous systems or totally miss their mark and land in empty spaces causing zero casualties and minimal damage?!

How??

Listen, I get it. This thought process begs the question, where was God during the horrible terrorist attack yesterday? Where was He on October 7th? Where was He during the holocaust?

All valid questions that require a very serious nuanced conversation.

But if you know anything about what had to happen last night and throughout this war in general, for such a low number of casualties, you’ll know that what we witnessed last night was the equivalent of God splitting the sea right before our eyes.

Guess what. When God split the sea, there were those who didn’t believe it was a miracle and didn’t jump in. And there are also those who feel the need to explain it naturally. Ok, that’s fine.

You don’t want to call yesterday an act of God? That’s your choice, but like my Microsoft friend, if you look at these events objectively, you’d have a really hard time seeing those hundreds of deadly missiles land in empty spaces and not see the hand of God.

Last night was an incredible display of the collaboration between two of the powers that protect the Jewish people: The IDF and Hashem.

Last night will go down in history right alongside many of Israel’s accomplishments in this war including the beepers and the unprecedented low ratio between combatant and civilian, as a military operation the likes of which the world has never seen. Ever!

Last night will be analyzed by military strategists and experts for generations.

Last night, we witnessed history.

Last night we witnessed open miracles.

Last night, we witnessed God in all His glory watching over His children.

Fasten Your Seat Belts: Israel Promises Severe Consequences After Iran Fires Barrage Of 180 Ballistic Missiles
By Eric Stackelbeck for
Harbinger's Daily

What a day in God’s land. In case you missed it, the Iranian regime directly attacked Israel, launching some 181 ballistic missiles at the world’s one and only Jewish state. It’s being said that this is the largest ballistic missile attack ever in world history.

You might hearken back to the April 2024 attack that Iran conducted against Israel, during which over 300 projectiles were fired, and wonder why today is considered “unprecedented.” However, that barrage consisted of a mixture of ballistic and cruise missiles, as well as drones. Today’s attack was strictly 181 ballistic missiles that blanketed every inch of Israel. Although it had fewer projectiles, the attack consisted of more lethal weapons.

They also travel at a much greater distance. A few of my colleagues were surprised at the speed of this attack. If you remember, the April 13th attack by Iran involved waiting hours for some of these cruise missiles and drones to reach from Iran to Israel. It was a slow-moving train, and most of them were intercepted before they even entered Israeli airspace. In fact, some 99% were intercepted, in a miraculous display of missile defense. Ballistic missiles travel in roughly twelve minutes. That’s all, folks. Twelve minutes is all you have to prepare when ballistic missiles travel from Iran to Israel.

While the numbers are still coming in, we do know that not every one of today’s ballistic missiles were intercepted. At least eight or nine got through certainly; many fell in open spaces.

The United States says that they helped Israel, as they did in April, intercept these incoming ballistic missiles. That’s a good thing, but don’t expect anything more than a defensive posture from the United States under the current leadership—or lack thereof. There will be every effort, prepare yourselves, for the Biden-Harris Administration to attempt to restrain Israel at every turn.

In April, when those missiles were intercepted, Joe Biden told Benjamin Netanyahu to just take the win and not strike back. Undoubtedly, that is the message from the Biden Administration once again. According to the White House, Biden and Harris were in the Situation Room monitoring the unfolding attack in real time.

Currently, the Iranian regime says the attack is over, and Israeli officials have given the okay for the people of Israel to leave their bomb shelters.

That being said, five hours from now, you may have a case, God forbid, where Iran fires another wave. Not long from now, we may also see Israel in the midst of responding to this unprecedented Iranian assault.

Iran says their blood lust is satisfied, touting Tuesday’s assault as retaliation for the death of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh back on August 1st, who was eliminated under the noses of the Iranian regime in Tehran, and the death of the not-so-dearly departed terror master Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah’s overall leader, on Friday, September 27th. Let’s also not forget the subsequent smashing of Hezbollah and Hamas being largely crushed. Iran felt like it had to save face and do something.

It does not appear that any Israelis were killed, thank God, in the attack. It does appear some were wounded running to bomb shelters, perhaps by shrapnel.

A Palestinian man in Jericho sadly appears to have been killed, just as an Arab Bedouin girl was wounded in April. Although Iran hates the Jewish people, they don’t discriminate when it comes to killing and maiming across the board. The Iranian regime will fight to the last drop of Arab blood. What do I mean by that? The Iranians are not Arab. Some Arabs live in Iran, but the vast majority are Persian. Iran has no compunction in using Arab Hamas, Arab Hezbollah, Arab Houthis, and Arab Shiite militias in Iraq and Syria as cannon fodder.

Fasten your seat belts because IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari stated that Israel is to be striking tonight throughout the Middle East, adding “We will act at the place and time of our choosing, in accordance with the guidance of the political echelon—tonight’s event will have consequences.”

At the end of the day, we can talk about the natural and the physical, but at its root, this is a spiritual battle, and this Iranian ring of fire is demonic. It’s actually a demonic death cult. Evil is arrogant, and evil can be quite stupid. On October 7th and 8th—when Hamas carried out its massacre invasion, and Hezbollah began unilaterally firing rockets at Israel—those two terror organizations, in their arrogance, signed their own death warrants.

Keep this all in prayer, folks. You live in Bible times. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for a Divine iron dome over Israel right now.

I wonder if this all qualifies for Zech 12? Because at this level we are seeing, wow, it seems to be possible you guys, no? It is interesting to note the level of irony we are seeing today too. In the past it was thought that Netenyahoo knew about Hamas attack coming. And somehow wanted it (the story goes). So they could make their country a 1 state solution. This video though from Amir is pretty telling. Amir underscores what was found in Hezbellah locals. The plans to carry out what Hamas jumped the gun on to do in 2023 Oct 7. It seems Hamas wanted the glory. And jumped the gun. With Netenyahoo now mowing down Hezbellah +. Which kind of makes we wonder if Zech 12 is like the inaugural moment when the two state solution propoganda ends? Like a prophetic benchmark moment? Because does it not look like that is the way things are going? lol. Blessings.

There are investigations that aren't complete yet.

I listen to Caroline Glick and she's expressed a different possible underlying cause. When we think back to the summer of 2023, Israel had severe internal rifts and mass marches. There was judicial reform that Netanyahu's coalition wanted to initiate and Israel's socialist leftists were angry. Many of those spearheading the anger were retired/active military. They were so angry that they'd insisted that the IDF and IAF not respond should Netanyahu issue any military command. Though that's traitorous, active military were agreeing :fear:

There were warning of Oct. 7, and according to Glick, those warnings were not shared with the PM's office. Netanyahu was as surprised as most of Israelis.
 
I wonder if this all qualifies for Zech 12?

I'm not sure, but in my mind Zech 12 comes at the end of the 7-yr trib??

I have an odd question about Oct. 7, because things were pretty quiet in the Middle East (except internal turmoil). They had an agreement with Hamas (always liars) and super high-tech fences all around Gaza. An example from Jake Sullivan:

National security adviser defends saying Middle East region was ‘quieter’ days before Hamas attack

Eight days before the attack on Israel, Jake Sullivan said the Middle East region was quieter than it had “been in two decades.” He defended the remarks on "Meet the Press."

My question is if this might apply??

Eze. 38:11 "and you will say, ‘I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will go against those who are at rest, who live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates,"

If Ezekiel 38 applies to 10-7-23, maybe we're entering a phase of the Ezekiel war??

You realize you just tripped the wire. You realize what day it is? Literally...lol


Well I just say that in fun because of my 2 seals being different approach. And how this kind of thinking along Ez 38 lines leans in that direction. But thanks for your thoughts on Zech 12. Yes I believe the general consensus by scholars is that it is at the end of the tribulation. Like Armegeddon. But what I never understood about that is if Israel ran from the AC at trib midpoint. And scattered around the world (many brought to hidden safety Rev 12:14). How is it they end up back in Israel at the end of the tribulation? I believe somehow they do because of other passages in Zechariah. But the only thing I can think of is that maybe during Bowl 5 they are able to get back into Israel and run it. But that just seems like a lot of Israeli growth in such a short time. Which is possible it is just that no one I have ever read venture to explain how Israel gets a hold of their country again. Obviously Armegeddon is about those who meet to fight with God in the plains of Israel. But how much of Israel at that time if functioning though as their nation?

As for Ez 38, bless your heart. I would say for sure Ez 38 is on the horizon. But to me it would seem to be on the other side of their peace and safety. Like through Abraham Accords and Saudi normalization etc. But you bring up an awesome point. 10-7 was a total surprise. To Israel and to the world. So when we ask how Ez 38 could happen during American empowerment watch, we tend to go with a view where the EU has more power to keep America from reacting or knowing. Some build an ideology on America tanking enough so as to be useless and that is why America does not know nor responds. But what we have seen with 10-7 is Ez 38 miniature golf. Almost as if God might provide a movie trailer for us to consider in what context something like Ez 38 could occur (for it would seem Hezbelah would have made it Ez 38 has Hamas not goofed that up). And with Russia, Turkey, and Iran continueing to meet over Syria, in Joseph considered as the land of Magog, Astana Kazekastanm -- especially since Iran is losing its proxy power and needing more than ever big guns like Russia and Turkey by their side...no doubt 10-7 seems to be of potential greater prophecy weight in perhaps this way, amen. Blessings.
 
Biden won’t support a strike on Iran nuclear sites as Israel weighs response to Iran missile attack
JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. (AP) — President Joe Biden said Wednesday he will not support an Israeli strike on sites related to Tehran’s nuclear program in response to Iran’s missile attack on Israel.

“The answer is no,” Biden told reporters when asked if he would support such retaliation after Iran fired about 180 missiles at Israel on Tuesday.

Biden’s comments came after he and fellow Group of Seven leaders from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom spoke by telephone about coordinating new sanctions against Iran.

The White House said in a statement that the leaders “unequivocally condemned Iran’s attack against Israel” and that Biden reaffirmed America’s “full solidarity and support to Israel and its people.”

Amir said that for political reasons Israel can't do a strike on Iran's nukes till after the US election in a month. I figure I'll just go over Biden's head, and ask God on Israel's behalf. Sucks to be Biden when God enters the equation!!!
