HOLD FAST TO THE HOPE OF ESCAPE IN THESE DAYS OF NOAH, AND PRAY THAT TRUMP WINS THE ELECTION!

The Days of Noah Are Here! - Click Image To Enlarge

 ~*~ Luke 17:26-30 ~*~ “And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.”

As we focus on these days that are becoming more like those of the time of Noah and Lot everyday, it pays to remember that many prophecies in the Bible have a dual or even triple application.This means they apply to the past, and also have at least one future fulfillment. One way we can know that the prophecies in Daniel Chapter 9 and Matthew Chapter 24 were fulfilled at Yahshua's First Advent but have a future fulfillment is that Yahshua did not come a second time after His Ascension in 31-32 AD, although He promised that He would return to rescue His saints and vanquish His enemies. That is why His earliest disciples were expecting Him to come and rescue them and destroy Rome at any moment. This is evident in the epistles of the New Testament, in which the Apostles Peter, Paul and James all made it clear that they had expectations that Yahshua would return in the near future, perhaps even before they died.

This expectation was even higher at the time of the Jerusalem Temple's destruction in 70 AD. Before that Temple was destroyed, an abomination of desolation was set up in the Temple. This happened two centuries before Christ was born, when Antiochus Epiphanes sacrificed swine on the altar in the Temple, and erected idols there. This led to the Maccabean revolt and the reign of the Maccabees over Jerusalem. According to most scholars, the abomination of desolation referred to in Daniel is recalling the actions of Antiochus Epiphanes in desecrating the Temple to Yahweh. But because Yahshua referred to the abomination of desolation again as a future event, the Israelites He spoke to would have understood it as a reference to what had happened in the past as something that would happen again in the future.

In 70 AD, the Temple was indeed completely desecrated when a swarm of pagan soldiers stormed the grounds, burned the Temple to Yahweh down, crushed its stones into gravel under their feet, and saturated the ground with salt so nothing would grow there. When this happened, Yahshua's disciples were sure that He would return then to smite the Roman scourge and liberate them from Roman occupation and rule. But when He did not return then to rescue His saints and liberate Jerusalem from Pagan occupation, many fell away from the faith. Still others, driven by the insight of the Holy Spirit, realized that Christ's return would not come until a future era that was as wicked as the days of Noah.

That dreadful time has finally come. Within the past few decades, modern humanity has now reached a similar level of violence, treachery, genetic tampering, and sexual and social immorality that was on the Earth in Noah's and Lot's day. Yahshua our Messiah told His followers to watch for His return at a time that was like the days of Noah and Lot, and right now, we are seeing the signs of His return all around us.

One of the biggest signs of Christ's soon return can be seen in the current US Presidential race, in which there have been numerous information leaks showing how dishonest and treasonous Hillary and Bill Clinton are - even while the Democratic Political establishment has been turning a blind eye to it. In addition, there have been vicious attacks by the Democratic Party and American citizens that hate Donald Trump. They are doing this because he is not a career politician, or an Illuminati or Elite insider, and he is therefore a major threat to their globalist plans for a world dictatorship headed by the United Nations (or Beast from the Sea) and the Antichrist.

Trump is so feared and hated by the career politicians that even many politicians in the Republican Party that he represents have turned against him, and the party officials have not spent a penny promoting Trump's campaign! So, not only has Trump had to fund his campaign using his own fortune to avoid being beholden to any special interest groups, he has had to pay for his own rally space, commercials, and campaign merchandise that is sold to the public. Thankfully, Trump is also receiving private citizen contributions from individual supporters that are planning to vote for him. Although the Mainstream Media refuses to show it, Trump is a very popular candidate among many conservatives and Christians, and all of his campaign rallies have been packed with enthusiastic citizens that see him as America's last and best hope.

Outside of the bodily return of Yahshua the Messiah (a.k.a. Jesus the Christ), many believers have realized that Trump really is America's last great hope of surviving until Yahshua comes for His Bride in the Rapture. Thankfully, there is a growing hope that Donald Trump and his Evangelical Christian running mate Mike Pence may win the election on November 8th, 2016 - provided that Voter fraud is not rampant, and there are many signs that cases of Voter fraud are being watched out for, and being caught more often now than they were in the past. Another event that is helping Trump's campaign is the fact that the FBI, CIA and others just released a huge virtual coup aimed at toppling the Clinton Foundation House of Cards and saving the American Republic:

Internal Coup Against Hillary

Clinton Has Begun: Red Alert

In addition, an article was just published with leaked information showing that Barrack Obama exchanged e-mails with George W. Bush and his staff arranging for Obama's transition into the White House BEFORE the election in November of 2008! This strongly suggests that they knew the results of the election before it actually occurred, and the election was probably rigged from the beginning to fall in Obama's favor! Here is the title and link to that article:

White House In Full Red Alert: Wikileaks 

Releases First Batch Of Barack Obama’s Emails!

http://www.usapoliticstoday.com/white-house-in-full-red-alert-wikileaks-releases-first-batch-of-barack-obamas-emails/

Although these are hopeful signs, and Trump and Pence may get elected due to this, there is no assurance that the election will happen, or that this wicked world can continue as it is for more than decade. So please pray for the election to occur, and for Trump and Pence to win so that the American Republic can potentially be saved - at least until Yahshua or Jesus comes for His saints in the Rapture.

Another big sign that we are in days like those that Noah saw is in the triumph seen by those promoting Gay and Transgender lifestyles, and in pushing the LGBT Agenda forward in every nation on this planet - especially the Western nations. Here is the title and link to a recent article I did on the terribly immoral situations that the LGBT Movement has created because of its promotion of many different kinds of sexual immorality, which God truly hates:

ALL SEXUAL SIN LIKE GAY/BAAL

WORSHIP LEADS TO DEATH!

http://pillarofenoch.blogspot.com/2016/06/all-sexual-sin-like-gaybaal-worship.html

There are also numerous Signs in the Heavens, and on the Earth that Yahshua is due to arrive soon, especially the threat of GMO foods and new and deadly outbreaks of vile contagious diseases without a known or widely available cure. There are also many wars and rumors of wars, especially the war on terror that is being lost by insane Western world leaders that are playing into Satan's hand as they allow wave upon wave of Muslim refugees to flood their nations. The truth that most of the leaders in the West are crooks, robbers and traitors to their nations is also becoming increasingly more evident as angry citizens threaten rebellion and revolution, and many that have given up on God have bought survival food and gear, weapons and ammo, and are preparing for a civil or world war.

In the meantime, the leaders of these same Western powers that are fomenting civil disobedience are actually aiding the ISIS rebels that are largely behind the supposed refugee crisis. While their leaders play dumb, many citizens are waking up to the fact that this refugee crisis is really just a way for Muslim radicals to seed the Western nations with zealous jihadis wanting to destroy the infidels for their satanic god Allah. But even worse than that, the world is also marching rapidly toward World War III and a nuclear holocaust that could potentially kill millions or billions of people, depending on how many bombs are launched. As this threat escalates, Americans and Canadians living in the big cities are virtually defenseless because most are too distracted and beset by troubles to be aware, and their governments have not prepared them. They have not built bomb shelters, but have built numerous military bases in or near all the major metropolitan areas, which makes every big city a major bomb target in the event of war. Nor have they educated their people on how to survive during a major war or nuclear holocaust.

The truth is that the world has gotten this far out of control because Yahshua expects and desires His followers to learn to rely completely on Him. The fact that most people have nowhere else to turn but God for their safety and deliverance right now is a sure sign that God is orchestrating events behind the scenes to draw people to Himself. Many believers today are beleaguered with worries and poverty, and are surrounded by enemies and troubles on every side. So this is causing believers in Christ to draw nearer to Him than they ever have before, crying out to God for protection and rescue. Although many have abandoned God and do not seek His help, some are leaving their hedonistic ways behind them. Instead they are seeking God, and learning to find the comfort, love, protection and peace that only Yahshua, God the Father and the Holy Spirit can offer. Praise our Father God and His Son and Spirit, who care for us and protect and help us, even while the world hates us!

Below is Steven Ben DeNoon's warning video of imminent World War, in which he shows where unprotected Americans in Nuclear Hot Zones can run if they are trying to survive. I have embedded a map of the USA that he shows in his video directly below the embedded video.

For those who are wondering why the Nuclear War Warnings are NOT on the Mainstream Media Sites, think about it! The Elite Powers That Be want the majority of ordinary folks like you and I to die! So unless you live in a place like Russia - where they actually seem to care about their citizens, and built places for them to survive a Nuclear Holocaust, our only hope is to cling to Christ and His promises of deliverance BEFORE they press the launch buttons! But as believers, we should not be afraid. Read Psalm 112 for comfort and hope that our Father God Yahweh can and will protect us if we cling to Him, no matter what transpires.

All of these terrible situations and sinister developments are proclaiming loudly that we are living in the time of Yahshua's return in the Rapture to rescue His saints. Just as Yahshua told us to pray for deliverance so that we can escape all the terrible things that are coming upon this world, He also said that He was preparing a place for us in Heaven - a place where He can draw us unto Himself in rescue from the coming apocalypse. So that is what I am focusing my thoughts and prayers on. No matter what happens on or before election day...

Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey, Prototypes of the Antichrist and False Prophet
By Helena Lehman

As all are now aware, Barack Hussein Obama has won the Democratic nomination to run for US President, and is well on his way to winning the Presidential election on November 4th. Indeed, the media is now saying that there has not been such mass popularity for anyone running for President since JFK. Barack has a major cult following, and women have been seen fainting and weeping openly at his political rallies. It's almost as if Obama were a rock star rather than a politician, and that he may be destined to win the upcoming election based more on his cult status than on his readiness for the task.

Now, though this in itself might not make any born-again Christian suspect a dark supernatural element to Barack Obama's campaign touting "Change You Can Believe In," they should have taken major notice when internationally acclaimed talk-show hostess Oprah Winfrey endorsed Obama´s bid for the presidency, and even went to one of his campaign rallies to appear on stage with him and his wife. At that time, Oprah cryptically said "He's the One" before leaving the stage. Now, this leads me to ask; "Why - pray tell - is Obama 'The One?' Furthermore, just what in particular is he the one for?"

Why this should raise some questions should be crystal clear to anyone who has been paying attention to Oprah's talk show and magazine - those perennially popular venues that unashamedly tout Oprah's personal world view and spiritual beliefs as the "IN" way to think. You see, Oprah is not just an imminently likeable talk show hostess. She's a spiritual icon for the New Age movement, has been called the African Mother Goddess of America, and has inspired articles such as CBN's "The Gospel According to Oprah" and Christianity Today's "The Church of O."

Don't believe me? Check out Wikipedia, where it also says: "Oprah's most significant role has become that of spiritual leader. To her audience of more than 22 million mostly female viewers, she has become a postmodern priestess -- an icon of church-free spirituality." To this, I would add that not only is Oprah's spirituality Church-free, it's also Christ-free. In other words, Oprah is preaching a different Gospel than the one in the Bible - one that is totally devoid of any reference to a loving, caring Creator God, or a need for His Son as our Savior.

If the fact that a New Age priestess is backing Obama's campaign doesn't make Christians stand up and take notice, Barack's most enduring Church affiliation should. Until very recently, Obama and his family attended the Trinity United Church of Christ, and were close friends with its long time pastor Jeremiah Wright, whose radical teachings included cursing America as a racist nation and damning it to Hell. Now, I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound like the Christianity of peace, love, forgiveness and equality that is unquestionably preached about in the Bible´s hallowed pages.

Not only that, but Obama has shown that he is not a true friend of Christianity. In fact, Obama is fully pro-abortion (as opposed to pro-choice or pro-life) and pro-ecumenical in that Obama not only supports all faiths, but he is radically opposed to allowing Christians slightly more freedom to express their faith than people of other faiths, and vehemently critical of any reference to America as a "Christian" nation.

Though this may seem like a constitutional stance, and it sounds democratic and fair on the surface, Obama's views may cause him to be easily swayed by special interest groups who favor imposing unfair restrictions on Christians in regard to their constitutional right to freedom of speech and peaceful assembly. Indeed, there is no doubt in my mind that Oprah and her cronies would not only welcome but would encourage Obama to do so. The now all too frequent protests against Christians praying using Jesus' name in public, or displaying manger scenes or Christmas trees are a telling case in point.

There are also many questions about Obama's background and beliefs that have not been answered adequately in my mind, such as his associations with known radicals and whether or not he feels any patriotism or love for America as it was envisioned by its Christian founding fathers. The fact that Obama has refused to cover his heart during the playing of the National Anthem and initially refused to wear a flag pin during the early part of his campaign greatly disturbs me since I love my country, and want to support and improve it in any way that I can. Furthermore, I believe that this is the stance that every American should share, whether they are native born or naturalized.

In addition to these problems, Barack Hussein Obama seems unsure of whom or what to support on an international level, as was displayed during his recent trip to Israel. While there, Obama did a radical about-face regarding the topic of not dividing Jerusalem. Initially, Obama was supportive of keeping Jerusalem undivided, but then he quickly changed his tune when faced with Arab-led protests.

As a Messianic Christian who is quite familiar with Bible prophecy, I believe that any nation or group of people that attempts to divide, attack, or destroy Israel will pay the ultimate price on Judgment Day. It is therefore not only in America's best interests to continue supporting and protecting Israel, but it is also God's ultimate desire for America and all nations as revealed in Prophecy.

For those reading this who are strangers to Bible prophecy, let me tell you who Obama and Oprah remind me of in regard to the End Times. They unquestionably resemble the infamous Antichrist and the False Prophet, two secretly evil characters who will appear to be good, and will deceive many unsuspecting souls who don't read the Bible or have a personal relationship with God and His Son. So, if that sounds like you and you're voting for Obama, I'd think twice if I were you.

The Bible's Book of Revelation says that the Antichrist - who is a powerful political leader - and the False Prophet - who is a powerful religious leader - will arise to power just before the Great Tribulation, which is a seven year period when God's wrath will be poured out on sinful humanity. This time period will culminate with the Battle of Armageddon - aka World War III - and climax with the Second Coming of Christ to set up His Millennial Kingdom on Earth. Considering what a mess we sinners have made of the world lately (and at nearly every point in history), I'm really looking forward to His reign.

Now, you may wonder, do I think Barack Hussein Obama IS the Antichrist? Well, before I answer that question, I need to explain that there is going to be not one but two Antichrists on the world scene in its final years. The one the Bible calls the King of the North is THE Antichrist, and he will conquer the little antichrist called the King of the South when he attempts to attack the King of the North's territory. I believe the Antichrist, or King of the North will be a prominent leader in the European Union and the world, and that he will be a bonafide prince, just as the Bible says he is. In addition to him, though, there is the little antichrist - the one that Muslims call the Mahdi - and he could be anyone, as long as he thinks like a Neo-Fascist/Radical Muslim.

With his radical anarchist friends, associates in the Nation of Islam, and his leftist political leanings, Barack Hussein Obama has many of the earmarks of being that prophetically little-known individual called the Mahdi. In fact, his father and stepfather were Muslims and the young Obama was schooled in a Muslim community where children currently are regularly taught to lie, cheat and steal from unsuspecting infidels - and even kill them without mercy when the opportunity presents itself. There are even rumors that Obama has a false birth certificate, was not born in Hawaii, but Africa, and is therefore not a naturally born US citizen.

Despite the dire warnings that his Christianity may be - at best - superficial, Barack Obama is very good at pretending to be Christ-like. Couple that with his wild popularity, heavy ecumenical slant, politically correct immorality, slick communication savvy, youthful attractiveness, nearly universal appeal, and heavy funding from Muslims and other special interest groups, and you´ve got many signs proclaiming that Obama could be the Mahdi, a.k.a. the little Antichrist or King of the South. As President of the USA, he could secretly make an agreement with several Arab nations with the objective of destroying Israel. Then, the President may convince the Israelis to sign a peace treaty that will divide Jerusalem between the Israelis and Palestinians - but only if it will allow the Jews to build a new Temple on the Temple Mount near to the Al Aqsa Mosque.

Bible prophecies have much to say about what will happen after that historic peace treaty is signed. Using the guidance of the Holy Spirit that God has given to me and the knowledge I've gained from the Bible and the Gospel in the Stars, this is what I foresee happening then:

First of all, the Rapture - when millions upon millions of Christians around the world will be caught up to heaven to be with Christ forever - will occur around this time. This event will partly cripple the USA and cause it to be less able to defend itself against invasion or to help Israel. This is when the Bible teaches that the Arab-Israeli peace treaty will be broken after three and a half years. At that time, the USA and the Arab nations surrounding Israel will be invaded by a massive multi-nation military force led by the Antichrist, or King of the North in Europe. So, though the Antichrist will help Israel defeat the nations attacking her, Israel will still lose her sovereignty and the entire USA will be under attack. This is known to Bible students as the Gog-Magog Invasion, though most miss that it will be launched against Israel and the USA simultaneously.

Having gained the upper hand around the world, the Antichrist will enter and desecrate the new Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and claim to be a god while demanding worship. This will cause Jews, Muslims, and Christians around the world to revolt against the Antichrist. As an inevitable result, all three religious groups will be targeted for annihilation by the Antichrist, and they all will be heavily persecuted until Christ returns to liberate Israel, destroy the Antichrist and his armies, and save the USA from annihilation.

Even if Barack doesn't win a ticket to the White House this time around, he no doubt will save some of the enormous sums he raised this year for his campaign to run for President again in 2012 - the year that the ancient Mayans predicted would see the end of the world as we know it. Time will certainly tell. And, even if Obama isn't "The One" - because he all too closely resembles that really, really bad guy of the Bible called the Antichrist or his twin in evil called the Mahdi, he certainly won't be getting my vote on Election Day.

By the way, contrary to popular belief, the United States is mentioned quite frequently in Bible prophecy. You just need to know the Language of God to figure it out, and I’d be happy to teach you.

The Amazing Hidden Prophecy In Psalm 108, and the War on Terror - Are They Connected?

By Helena Lehman
http://pillar-of-enoch.com

August 30, 2007 - Many people are filled with anxiety today, wondering what is going to happen in regard to the war on terror, and America’s place in it, as well as the part the Middle East nations will play in upcoming world events.

In that regard, the God of Israel has hidden much in Scripture about this very time in history. However, few scholars seem to be aware of the hidden prophecies in the Book of Psalms attributed to King David. For thousands of years, the Psalms have primarily been seen as praise and worship songs, with only a few directly prophetic psalms like Psalm 22, which clearly pertains to Christ’s First Advent. For this reason, few books on End Time events discuss these prophecies.

In my book, “The Language of God in Prophecy” (read about it at http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Prophecy/), I show how many Psalms - especially the Hallel Psalms 110 through 118 - may be directly related to global prophetic events occurring in the years 2010 through 2018. These nine psalms appear to describe unfolding events that will usher in the most terrible time in world history outsde of the Great Flood: the seven-year Great Tribulation! My book on prophecy gives a thrilling glimpse into future world events, even though I neglected to look at Psalm 108, which is directly connected to the years 2008 through 2009.

If I had looked at Psalm 108 closely while writing my book, it would have added greatly to my prophetic interpretation of what the Hallel Psalms may mean in regard to the West’s ongoing war on Terror. In this article, I would therefore like to explain what this Psalm might foretell for the United, States, the United Kingdom, the Middle East, and the rest of the world in the next two years leading up to 2010 - a year signaled out in several prophetic channels.

Throughout Psalm 108, there are many terms that apply to nations and people groups in the past, as well as the present and future. What is doubly thrilling about this is that all the nations mentioned are directly involved with the current, globally felt war against Terrorism. To show how Psalm 108 reveals this, abridged portions of its thirteen stanzas will be quoted, followed by interpretations of what people groups and events these verses pertain to.

Let’s begin with the first seven stanzas:

“O God (Elohim), my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise… Awake, lute and harp! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise You, O LORD (Yahweh)… among the nations… Be exalted, O God (Elohim), above the heavens, and Your glory above all the earth; That Your beloved (i.e. Jerusalem) may be delivered, save with Your right hand, and hear me. God (Elohim) has spoken in His holiness: ‘I will rejoice; I will divide (or separate) Shechem (a city of refuge in Ephraimite territory which now refers to the Palestinian allotment of land in the West Bank) and measure out (i.e. set apart) the Valley of Succoth (part of Gad’s ancient territory - refers to the Palestinian occupied Gaza Strip).” -Psalm 108:1-7 (NKJ)

Fascinatingly, one of the two portions of land that have been portioned out to the Palestinians is the West Bank, which surrounds Jerusalem on three sides. This portion of land is called Shechem in Psalm 108, and it was rich pastureland when Jacob’s sons tended their father’s flocks there. It was near Shechem that Joseph made his fateful trip out into the fields to check on the welfare of his brothers, only to be beaten, imprisoned, and sold into slavery by them (Genesis 37:13-28). It was also in Shechem where Joseph was later buried.

Interestingly, the story of Joseph’s slavery, and later rise to power in Egypt echoes the current conflict between the West, and the Muslim nations. Perhaps this is why Joseph’s tomb is located in Shechem, or the West Bank, and why the Palestinians barbarically destroyed his tomb in 2003. As shown in my book “The Language of God in Humanity” (read about it at http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Humanity/), Joseph’s two sons Ephraim and Manasseh would come to represent two powerful Gentile nations in the Last Days: The United States (Ephraim), and the United Kingdom (Manasseh).

The Scripture “I will divide (or separate) Shechem” directly states that it is God’s Will that there should be a separation of the West Bank from the rest of Israel through the auspices of the United States, United Kingdom, and United Nations! In double fulfillment of this, the West Bank is now separated, or divided by political strife as well since it was set up as a secular democratic state, but was quickly overrun by fundamentalist Islamic terrorist groups.

Even more fascinating is the fact that “the Valley of Sukkoth” in the preceding Scripture may be referring to the Gaza Strip, which is indeed measured out, or set apart from Israel and the West Bank! These two sections of land were recently given to the Palestinians in order to secure peace with them, and the rest of the Middle East. However, this grand gesture of generosity by Israel has failed miserably in winning support and friendship from the Palestinians, or other Muslim nations.

The reason this modern bid at peace is failing is bound up in the past, and directly relates to the seemingly perpetual blood feuds between Isaac and Ishmael, and Jacob and Esau. It is also tied to the failure of the Israelites to make any lasting peace with the hated Philistines, and Amalekites after the Exodus, and the conquest of Canaan.

Intriguingly, the next two stanzas of Psalm 108 tell us what nations are intimately involved with, or opposed to this dividing up of Israel in an effort to bring peace to the region. It also states which nations are under God’s current control, or acting on His behalf, and also which ones are the targets of His wrath:

“Gilead (i.e. the grandson of Manasseh, likely referring to Canada today) is Mine; Manasseh (the United Kingdom) is Mine; Ephraim (the United States) also is the “helmet for My head” (or chief stronghold); Judah (the nation of ISRAEL) is My lawgiver. Moab (Syria, Iraq, and Iran) is My washpot; over Edom (Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and possibly Yemen and Oman) I will cast My shoe; over Philistia (Lebanon, Syria, Palestinian territories) I will triumph.’ ” -Psalm 108:8-9 (NKJ)

This portion of Scripture indicates that the Western nations with the most troops in Iraq and Afghanistan today, and those most closely allied with Israel today in friendship - the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada - are doing God’s will in the Middle East. So, no matter what people in these countries may think of their current political leaders, or government decisions concerning the War on Terror, these governments are (most likely unwittingly) acting on God’s behalf right now, though I must strongly emphasize here that this situation will change dramatically when the Antichrist becomes leader of the West in Europe sometime during, or after the predicted war described in Psalm 108.

The remaining portion of Psalm 108 tells us that the Western nations allied to Israel are going to have a major military show down with the Islamic terrorists allied against them, which include those living in Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Saudi Arabia. Now based on my interpretation of Psalms 110 through 118 in “The Language of God in Prophecy”(read about it at http://pillar-of-enoch.com/Language_of_God_in_Prophecy/), this war will likely be waged for two to three years, or until just before the Rapture of the True Church - which could occur in 2010 through 2012 AD. Furthermore, based on the final stanza of Psalm 108, the armies of the West will not be able to defeat their Terrorist enemies unless the people of the West (particularly the USA) openly call upon the God of Israel to help them:

“Who will bring me into the strong (or fortified) city (i.e. Babylon; a.k.a. Iraq - with its many US-built military bases surrounding it)? Who will lead me (in)to Edom (Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and possibly Yemen, and Oman)? Is it not You, O God (Elohim), who cast us off? And You, O God (Elohim), who did not go out with our armies? (OR: Elohim, will You cast us off? Elohim, will You abandon our armies?) Give us help from trouble, for the help of man is useless. Through God (Elohim) we will do valiantly, for it is He who shall tread down our enemies.” -Psalm 108:10-13 (NKJ)

In this final section of Psalm 108, the passage which reads: “it is He who shall tread down our enemies” suggests that God will miraculously intervene, and bless the West with a temporary victory in the Middle East. Furthermore, the lamentations and pleas to God in Psalm 109 - the psalm tied to events in late 2009 through 2010 - indicates that this war will lead to both suffering, and great spiritual revival (as witnessed in this psalm of prayer and lamentation) in the land of Israel, and the countries allied to it:

“But you, O Sovereign LORD (Yahweh), deal well with me for your name's sake; out of the goodness of your love, deliver me. For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me. I fade away like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust. My knees give way from fasting; my body is thin and gaunt.” - Psalm 109:21-24 (NIV)

Psalm 109 also suggests that the resolution of this war may lead to a much greater openness among Jews and Arabs to hear the Gospel, and be saved. Perhaps the miraculous events leading to this short-lived victory of Israel and the West against the Arabs will spur this revival, and the sharing of the Good News of the Kingdom of God with all of Abraham’s descendents through Ishmael and Isaac in preparation for the Rapture, and Great Tribulation:

“Help me, O LORD my God (oh Yahweh my Elohim); save me in accordance with your love. Let them know that it is your hand, that you, O LORD (Yahweh), have done it.” “With my mouth I will greatly extol the LORD (Yahweh); in the great throng I will praise him. For he stands at the right hand of the needy one, to save his life from those who condemn him.” - Psalm 109:26-27, 30-31 (NIV)

Could this worldwide time of peace and revival be the result of a peace treaty between Israel and the Arab world that will be signed with the diplomatic help of a politician who either represents, or will become the Antichrist? Based on other clues in Scripture, this peace treaty will likely allow the Jews to build a new Temple adjacent to the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. But that, my friend, is another story.
