Hey guys, I was just reading that we are threatening Iran if they don't surrender to, apparently the U.S. President. But that's for another discussion. But the natural flow here seems to be that at some point soon our President might make a pact with Israel for protection from what may soon be a group of Arabic nations rising up against Israel. I wonder if in the middle of that pact things might come apart? Is there any chance that we are about to witness the beginning of the "He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’?
And please, I'm not asking to necessarily point the finger at anyone other than to just point out that this Scripture 'may' be coming to fruition before our very eyes. So keep watch! We all know that God's word is true and that what He says will come to pass will come to pass. In the days of Jesus' birth few understood what was happening even though that event had also been well prophesied in the Scriptures. But the people didn't see it unfolding before their very eyes.
Likewise, there will come a day that some covenant will be made with some many that will then be broken. There is a generation of people who will actually witness before their very eyes some covenant being made. Many believe that covenant will be with Israel. For the U.S. to agree to protect and provide and support Israel in a war against many of its neighbors could well bring about the arrangement of such a covenant. I'm just quite flummoxed as to why our present leadership finds it worthwhile to protect Israel against a tyranny that hasn't even been created yet (this is all about Iran's ability to make nuclear weapons that may someday be used against Israel) vs. protecting a nation that supports our ideals against an aggressor who has already attacked and whose desire is killing and destroying an entire nation to bring it under Russian control. I scratch my head at that but then understand that God is in control of all of this. Perhaps our generation is seeing the set up for the fulfillment of this prophecy that God's angel gave unto Daniel concerning one of the events that would happen at the very last days of the Days of the Gentiles.
Could be. Just keep watch.
