Wars and rumors of wars. Jesus told us in the book of Matthew that these things would be before the end. Well, when we look around, there have been and continue to be wars and rumors of wars. But what about other signs from the Bible? Specifically, what about Russia? Did you think the cold war was over? That the old bear was defeated completely?
While Reagan did an extraordinary job in handling the cold war, that war is not so cold. That bear has only been hibernating and it is now waking up. Under the leadership of egomaniac Putin. the USSR is coming back and doing so with a vengeance. And, under our failed leadership of Obama, we are ripe for the picking. Never has America been so weak. Japan thought we were weak once and they paid a very heavy price for that mistake. What price will America pay now under Obama?
It is written that Russia will come against the US with all of her army and Persia, Ethiopia and Libya with her and all of their armies. That is quite a company! But God has also told us not to worry because He will be the one taking care of it. It is known as the battle of Gog. To understand a bit more, we have to go back in history. It is important to know and understand who exactly the children of Israel are. The 12 tribes of Israel comprise the children of Israel. There is a split between the house of Judah, which is the nation of Israel, and the house of Israel, which is comprised of the lost 10 tribes. In 1 Kings 5:13, Solomon imposed a levy against the people. For taxes and also for imposed labor. This was the beginning of the split. The first king over Judah after this split was Jeroboam who led an uprising even while Solomon yet reigned. In 1 Kings 12:16, we see the houses split. 1 Kings 16:21 specifically tells us that the tribes of Israel split, thereby making two nations from one. Judah and Benjamin comprise the nation of Israel and the other ten tribes are...where? Let's find out.
Daniel 9:7 tells us that God scattered His children. In Deuteronomy, we learned that God chose the children of Israel as a peculiar people, meaning they were unique to God. God loves ALL of His children but this particular group were, and still are, His chosen. Why? Because throughout history, the majority have consistently loved Him back. You can't say that about other nations. China...Buda, Africa...allah and whatever voo doo god they have, the majority of the middle east...allah...you get the idea. But let's get back to those other ten tribes.
In 2 Kings 18:34, God is asking about the other "gods" of the various lands and if they have been able to deliver Samaria out of His hand. The answer is no, of course, but Samaria was the capitol of Assyria at this time and it was the Assyrians that took the ten tribes of the North into captivity. In Deuteronomy 32:26, God told us that He would scatter the tribes to the four corners of the earth and make the remembrance of them to cease from among men. This is quite true. How many people know that the house of Judah and the house of Israel are split? How many know that the nation of Israel is only made up of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin? And how many know anything at all about the other ten tribes? The Assyrians took the 10 tribes captive in about 600 BC. But what happened from there? Those ten tribes escaped their captivity and went North over the Caucuses mountains. They later settled Europe and from there, Canada and America. Because they went over the Caucuses, they became known as Caucasians. Starting to wonder which tribe you are from? Make no mistake...Christians are part of that group that God chose to be a peculiar people unto Him.
Now that we have covered that bit of history, let's move forward to Russia. In Genesis 25:23, God told Rebekah that 2 nations were in her womb. Esau and Jacob and the younger would rule the elder. Esau was born first being red and hairy. Then Jacob who had grabbed on to Esau's heel. God hated Esau in the womb but Jacob He loved. Now, what on earth could a baby in the womb have possibly done to incur the wrath of God before even being born in the flesh? The answer is nothing. It is what Esau had done before getting here in the flesh and what God knew he would do after that caused God's anger. It is further proof that we are with God before the flesh and we will be with God after...if we love Him and make it to heaven again. See, Esau didn't care about God. He cared about Esau and the things of the world. He sold his birth right to Jacob for a bowl of soup. That's how much he cared. See, as the first born, it was to be his line through which Christ would come, but he didn't care about that. He even married heathen women. No, Christ would not be born through a defiled lineage. Therefore, Christ came through the line of Jacob. God will not be mocked.
Esau is also known as Edom. Edom means red. Russia is the red nation. The word in Hebrew is ro'sh which is Russia. We know that the nation of Russia is a communist one. We know that communists are atheists. They are as far to the left as one can go. Jesus does not sit on the left hand of God and Jesus did not tell his disciples to fish from the left side of the boat. It is to the right, always. The further left you go, the further from God you place yourself. It is a fact. By refusing to allow God in, Satan comes in unfettered. One of Satan's names is wormwood. The word Chernobyl in Russian means wormwood. Coincidence? I doubt it. Nothing happens by coincidence in God's word.
Those 2 nations in the womb are 2 super powers of the end times. This day and age right now. Russia and America. And they could not be more opposite in their views...at least before Barry that is. But in order for Russia to come against us, America has to be weak. Job well done in that regard, Barry. You are only a tool used by God for His will and you are too stupid to even realize it. But I digress. Let's go to Ezekiel chapter 38. God came to Ezekiel and told him to set his face against Gog, the land of Magog and the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. Well, the word Gog means ro'sh and the chief prince of Meshech is the chief prince of ro'sh Meshech. Good ol' Russia. God told Ezekiel to prophecy against them. God said that He is against them. Why? Because they themselves are against God. Persia is modern day Iran. In verse 8, God says in the latter days, meaning the end generation, this generation, that Russia, together with Iran and Ethiopia and Libya and all of their combined armies will come into the land that is brought back from the sword and is gathered out of many people, (we are a melting pot) against the mountains of Israel (those ten tribes). Russia and those with her will ascend and come like a storm, like a cloud to cover the land. God says in verse 10 that at the same time these armies are joined together, an evil thought will come into their mind and they will say, "I will go to the land of un-walled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, to take a spoil and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
Tell me of any other nation that has no walls and lives very well and at peace? Tell me of other nations without those walls that have cattle ranches that not only feed the nation itself but the world. Only America which is comprised and founded by those scattered 10 tribes of Israel. But should we be quaking in our boots at the audacity of Putin? Hardly. He, like Barry, is nothing more than a pawn and he is playing his tune according to God's will. In verse 16, God specifically says that Russia and those with her will come up against His people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; and it will be in the latter days (this current time) and He will bring them against His land so that the heathen will know Him and He will be sanctified in them before their very eyes. In verse 18, God continues by saying that it shall come to pass at the same time as Gog (Russia) shall come against the land of Israel (America) that His fury shall come up in His face. And He will cause a great shaking and He will rain upon him (Gog) great hailstones, fire and brimstone. He will magnify Himself and sanctify Himself and He will be known in the eyes of many nations and they shall know that He is the Lord.
Here God has told us what Russia will do. He also told us how He will handle it. Only a 6th part will remain of Russia and those with her. This is a battle that belongs to God. And if God is with you, tell me who can stand against you? Nothing and no-one. Rest easy and know that God is in complete control and the things happening in the world and in our own nation, as maddening as they are, are all happening according to God's plan. Nothing happens by accident. Just as in the days of king Saul, when the people chose a leader after their own heart, so we now have Obama, another would be leader after the peoples own heart. America has waxed fat and lazy. We have allowed the immoral to have their voice and we are paying the price for it. But God is always in control and He has not forgotten His children and He will always be a protector of those who love Him and serve Him.
Rest in the Lord. He has this.
Forever in His service,
The Conservative Wife
