Ezekial 38-39 End Times Battle Line Up

I read a very intersting article on "The Nations of Ezekiel 38-39" published in 1985 by Fred G. Zaspel of Word of Life Baptist Church, Pottsville, PA

Neither Russia or Germany are named among the end times battle participants that come against Israel. After seeing his insightful analysis  there are four major areas mentioned.

1. Turkey (Major Player) (Meshech, Tubal, MaGog (Land of Gog Prince Cheif of the Land)
2. Iran (Persia)
3. Sudan (Ancient Ethiopia or Cush)
4. Libya 

These are the key players on this event.  This indicates Turkey will take the lead role in this attack joined by Iran, Sudan, and Libya. This makes even more sense as you look at the map and see that this creates the 360 degree attack that is described in chapters 38-39.

Ezekiel 38-39 Line Up Attack

The attack will come suddenly and God Himself will defend His Bride. This is of special interest to me as I have been seeing new evidence of timelines regarding these last days.

Pastor Ray Bentley shares the "Decade of Destiny" and outlines time frames that points to when this Ezekiel line up could play out.

     More on this later.

What if the end is NOT near?

“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye THINK NOT the Son of man cometh.” (Matthew 24:44)

 In an article about an article about an article... lol... The story in USA Today by Tom Krattenmaker is pointed out by Jack Kinsella. There is a shift in public press that is interesting. The last line of the article is what hit it home for me. I always read Matthew 24:44 and thought that just meant we ought not loose sight and forget He is coming. Now I realize this was actually pointing to WHEN He is coming. It's not so much saying that we must not forget, although it is saying that, it is ALSO saying that people will seek NOT to believe.

Matthew 24:44

44 Therefore * #ste be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh .

to be of opinion, think, suppose to seem, to be accounted, reputed Not:  In Greek:  ouj  Pronounced: oo  Definition no, not; in direct questions expecting an affirmative answer    People are at large and in mass will be looking for ways NOT to THINK about the coming of the Son of Man. This article from Cloud Ten points out that for decades the question posed by media has been: "Is the end near?" And now it has become: "What if the end isn't near?" This shift to looking for a way NOT TO THINK about it or looking for a way to THINK IT NOT is another sign of the end times. We are coming to a head. It could be several decades yet. There are certain things that still have to happen. But they could all happen very quickly! The BEST is yet to come for those who Follow Jesus. Not only in heaven, but right here on earth. The last days for believers is the BEST time to live. Miracles and Signs and Wonders are coming in force. After the gospel is preached to the WHOLE EARTH the end will come. Major crusades and signs in the streets. Healing, dramatic healing, will not just be in meetings behind doors, or even on TV. These will occur in grocery stores and on street corners. There is coming swift a new age. It is the last "Glorious Church" that Jesus is coming back for. And Glorious we are becoming. Praise God... DW

No More Need Talking!

"Need" is a four letter word to God...


     I have found myself talking a lot about need. I need this or I don't need that. During the South West Believers Convention 2010 this month The Lord arrested my attention on that matter. I've been meditating Philippians 4. We have NO business talking to God about NEED. None at all. We are Children of God.

Jesse Duplantis asked a great set of questions at the opening of one his messages.

"How many husbands out there have ever bought anything for your wives she did not need?"

"How many wives out there have ever bought anything for your husbands he did not need?"

"How many parents have bought anything for their children they DID NOT need?"

"How many grandparents... and that's all I got to say right there... lol"


So what makes us think that God is only interested in showing up to talk about our need? Well that's just greed... no it's growth! If God is your Father than He's your Father!

How many fathers give good things to their children? How MUCH MORE does the Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask? Matthew 7:11 KJV

So what is Jesus saying here? He is saying God is TRYING to be our Father but we aren't letting Him. Here Paul addresses what he learned about that.


Philippians 4

¹¹ Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content... ¹³ I can do all things through Christ^[b] who strengthens me. ¹⁸ Indeed I have all and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. ¹⁹ And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. ²⁰ Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.

•  We do not consider, pay attention to, or give thought to NEED. Jesus said that the Father already knows our need and they are not to "Give it thought" "Take no thought saying..."
• I make a vow to never again say "Do we really NEED that?" Do you want it? Then we decide to get it now or later, but we don't "regard" need.
•  I am content in every circumstance BECAUSE I CAN DO ALL THINGS through the ANOINTING of the ANOINTED ONE! 
• I do not allow bad circumstances to dictate my emotions or actions, nor do I allow bad circumstances to remain. I take them to prayer in the Spirit and Change them by and through the Anointed Word of God.
•  I have ALL, and ABOUND, and I AM FULL because I RECIEVED
•  If I do not have ALL it's in my failure to receive NOT God's failure to give!
• My God SHALL supply, there is no room for doubt there. He SHALL (that means HE WILL) supply. Can you receive it? I can and I WILL!
  

Father,

•      You are MY provider and I receive ALL  and I ABOUND and I AM FULL!  

•      I RECEIVE you as Father. I take NO thought for my life, you already know my need.(Matthew 6:25) 
• I will only speak to you in terms of Want and Desire. 

•      For you said that you are MY Shepherd and I SHALL NOT WANT (Psalms 23)

•      I delight myself in you so I have my Desires (Psalms 37:4 KJV)

•      I shall ride upon the high places of the earth. (Isaiah 58:14 KJV)      
• I ask, BELIEVE and RECEIVE:  
• Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire , when ye pray , believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
