Collapse of the Middle East – Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS comes to Power

The “domino effect” that resulted from Tunisia’s revolution has spread to the entire Middle East. Egypt, Yemen, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Saudi Arabia are all up for grabs.

 

The Psalm 83 confederates

The Psalms 83 players have made a pact to wipe Israel off the map. The background is a hatred of Israel which has it’s roots in the Islamic nations.

Psalms 83:4 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.

The language is out of today’s headlines and the countries lined up against Israel in this Psalm match the neighbors who are in this revolution. The Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said that Israel must be “wiped off the map”.

Psalms 83:5For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

6The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

8Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

 

The Psalm 83 confederates:

Tents of Edom(Palestinians and S. Jordanians)Ishmaelites(Saudis – Ishmael father of the Arabs)Moab(Palestinians and Central Jordanians)Hagrites(Hagarenes – Egyptians)Gebal (Hezbollah & N. Lebanese)Amalek(Arabs of the Sinai area)Philistia(Hamas of the Gaza Strip)Tyre(Hezbollah and S. Lebanese)Assyria(Syria and N. Iraqis)

 

We see that Damascus gets destroyed “never to be inhabited again” in Isaiah 17. There is some speculation that Damascus being destroyed is the trigger for Russia to see it’s chance to step in.

Isaiah 17:1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.

 

Iran’s Role – Rise of the Mahdi

The Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has the belief that he is chosen to facilitate the return of the Twelfth Imam. Ahmadinejad believes Allah shielded or hid Muhammad al-Mahdi as the Twelfth Imam until the end of time. “The ultimate promise of all Divine religions,” Ahmadinejad said in an address to the UN in 2005, “will be fulfilled with the emergence of a perfect human being [the 12th Imam], who is heir to all prophets. He will lead the world to justice and absolute peace. Oh mighty Lord, I pray to you to hasten the emergence of your last repository, the promised one.”

Ahmadinejad’s “vision” at the U.N. is strangely reminiscent and alarmingly similar to statements he has made about his personal role in ushering in the return of the Shiite Muslim messiah.

He sees his main mission, as he recounted in a Nov. 16 speech in Tehran, as to “pave the path for the glorious reappearance of Imam Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance.” Ahmadinejad wants to assist him in his prophesied victory over the Dajjal (Israel and the West).

 

Caliphate Islamic Government

Al-Mahdi, the Muslim messiah, will restore the Caliphate and the purity of the Islamic faith so that Islam becomes the standard for all nations, bringing peace to the whole world. When he returns he will become the final Caliph acting as vice-regent for Allah on earth and will lead a revolution to establish a new Islamic world order. The earliest caliphs were relatives and followers of Muhammad himself. Under these caliphs, the political, social, and religious institutions of Islam would be solidified, including the definitive edition of the Qur’an. The caliphate was abolished in 1924 by the secular Turkish government. The foremost agenda of Islamic supremacists worldwide is the Caliphate’s restoration. The abolition of the Turkish Caliphate by Ataturk in 1924, and the secularization of Turkey created an open wound between the Arab/Muslim world and Turkey.  Turkey’s efforts to become part of the European Union and its close ties with Israel and the U.S. antagonized the Arabs. However since recent leadership changes, Turkey has rejoined the Arab Muslim world. Iran, Syria, and Turkey have forge a strategic alliance envisioned by Bashar Assad (Syria’s President). This alliance fulfills the prophecy members in Psalms 83 and Ezekiel 38 which leads to the End Time wars.

Conclusion

The unfolding events we see in the Islamic states are foretold in the Bible as events at the start of the last 7 years. The marker defined in the Book of Daniel for the start of the last 7 years is the confirmation of the covenant for the land given to Abraham by God. Basically recognizing Israel as a nation.

Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
