This is just me, my own personal ruminations.
These brooding thoughts build on the basis of a solid prophetic conviction. Some years ago I became utterly certain that if America attacks Iran, God will grant Iran victory over us. It has nothing to do with means and methods, nor any consideration for possible assistance from third parties. It came to me as an unshakable vision of our troops lying scattered across the battle grounds, equipment in shattered smoking ruins. This image is still burned into my consciousness and is most emphatically symbolic, not literal. The whole point was that God would not allow the US and allies to go beyond a certain moral boundary line. Please don’t get hung up how such things work, because it is largely a reflection of my personal communion with God. Nothing says you have to buy into this.
The shadow government of the West has openly published plans to take down all the countries near Israel that she doesn’t like. Hunt down the Brookings Institute and the title Which Path to Persia? on your favorite search engine. The plans have been largely successful so far. The countries weren’t actually conquered, just hammered until the stable government imploded and Western-sponsored terrorist were imported to insure the country could never regain its viability. In other words, all the misery of conquest but none of the blessings of imperial rule, as the places now exist in a state of unending warfare. Do I have to explain how unspeakably immoral this is?
I don’t pretend to understand any of the details of God’s plans on this. I don’t believe it works like that; it’s far more subtle and complex. I do believe I know how it will turn out, given the context of my general grasp of His revelation, His character, and what He seems to tell me about these things. Those published strategic plans put Syria next in line. As I noted more than once in the past, I am certain that Syria will get the same deal as places like Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. Given what little I can pretend to know about the current context, I tend to think that this could pull in Iran almost immediately — never mind who else.
I suppose I should mention that the vision I had implies the Empire comes apart with that failure of military action. Do you see what I see? Stuff like this cannot pass over us unnoticed. It will most certainly mean that all of the hateful misery we have inflicted on others will come home to roost in our rafters. That’s how divine justice works. It could still be years away, but the moral impact of all of this makes it feel very close.
Do I have to spell it out? This includes a healthy dose of natural disasters. It includes a very large permit for demonic activity, meaning that people will go absolute bonkers in ways that are inexplicable. Lots of them. All over the country. Stuff you cannot imagine. And if you don’t have a grasp of the shepherd’s soul in all of this, you won’t really understand why this puts me in a dark mood. You also won’t understand why I simply cannot remain silent: People you know and love will suffer and there is little you can do to stop it. You should try to help, but make sure it comes within the boundaries of your divine calling.
Search your own heart and make sure you have your hands on the task God appointed for you. Rest assured that if you are obedient, Creation itself sings of the redemption your obedience brings. Your obedience doing what little you know will bring glory to His name is easily the best thing for all the universe. It is morally the same as feeding orphans in places you never heard of, and healing wounds you never inflicted.
I strive to know and take my place because this is my part in His glory.
