Israel’s Wars

Introduction: Israel is at war both in the north and the south. Hezbollah in the north has been firing rockets and drones from Lebanon. Meanwhile, the Israeli’s are carrying out air attacks as well as ground assaults in the south area called Gaza. Interesting to note, the Psalmist prophesied concerning a coming war against Israel.

1. One battle which is yet to come is described in Psalm Chapter 83 (Psa 83:4-8) – “They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot.”

Several places listed here are in Gaza and Lebanon. These would include Palestinians and Muslims which are descendants of Esau and Ishmael.

2. Another battle describing an alignment of nations will take place in Israel (Ezek 38,39) – This involves Gog and Magog, etc.. which would be Russia, Turkey, Iran and other nations.
 
Certainly those nations today are against Israel.
 

3. However, the big battle is going to happen when the Kings of the East merge in the valley of Jezreel (Zech 14:1-2) –Perhaps this will include China, maybe even North Korea. All nations will end up in this location to war against Jesus Christ. However, they will not succeed. Defeated and decimated will be their destination.

Conclusion: The final battle described in the Bible is when the devil will be loosed out of his prison only to go out and deceive nations; but his demise is inevitable. Jesus Christ will fight for His people. He will WIN!
