GOD Almighty Will Defend His People, Israel



Ezekiel 38:1-17

Now The Word of The LORD (God Almighty) came to me (Ezekiel), saying, “Son of man, set Your (Ezekiel’s) Face AGAINST Gog, of The Land of Magog, The Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and Prophesy AGAINST Him (Gog), and say, ‘Thus Says The LORD GOD: Behold, I (God Almighty) AM AGAINST YOU, O Gog, The Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.  I (God Almighty) will Turn YOU (Gog) Around, Put Hooks into Your (Gog’s) Jaws, and LEAD YOU (Gog) Out, with All Your (Gog) Army, horses, and horsemen, All splendidly clothed, a Great Company with bucklers and shields, All of them (Gog’s Army) handling swords.  Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with Them (Gog’s Army), all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer and all its troops; The House of Togarmah from The Far North and all its troops, many people are with YOU (Gog).

“Prepare Yourself (Gog) and be ready, YOU (Gog) and All Your (Gog’s) Companies that are gathered about YOU (Gog); and be a guard for them (Gog’s Companies).  After Many Days YOU (Gog) will be VISITED.  In The Latter Years YOU (Gog) will come into The Land of Those (God Almighty’s People, Israel) brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on The Mountains of Israel, which had long been DESOLATE; They (God Almighty’s People, Israel) were brought out of The Nations, and now All of Them (God Almighty’s People, Israel) Dwell Safely.  YOU (Gog) will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, YOU (Gog) and All Your (Gog’s) Troops and Many Peoples with YOU (Gog).”

‘Thus says The LORD GOD: “On That Day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in Your (Gog’s) Mind, and YOU (Gog) will make an Evil Plan: YOU (Gog) will say, ‘I (Gog) will go up against a Land of Unwalled Villages; I (Gog) will go to a Peaceful People (God Almighty’s People, Israel), who Dwell Safely, All of Them (God Almighty’s People, Israel) dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’, to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out Your (Gog’s) Hand AGAINST the waste places that are again inhabited, and AGAINST a People (God Almighty’s People, Israel) GATHERED from The Nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in The Midst of The Land.  Sheba, Dedan, The Merchants of Tarshish, and All Their Young Lions will say to YOU (Gog), ‘Have YOU (Gog) come to take plunder?  Have YOU (Gog) gathered Your (Gog’s) Army to take booty, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’”’

“Therefore, son of man (Ezekiel), Prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says The LORD GOD: “On That Day when My (God Almighty’s) People Israel Dwell Safely, will YOU (Gog) NOT know it?  Then YOU (Gog) will come from Your (Gog’s) Place Out of The Far North, YOU (Gog) and Many Peoples with YOU (Gog), All of them (Gog’s Army) riding on horses, a Great Company and a Mighty Army.  YOU (Gog) will come up AGAINST My (God Almighty’s) People Israel like a cloud, to cover the land.  It will be in The Latter Days that I (God Almighty) will bring YOU (Gog) AGAINST My (God Almighty’s) Land, so that The Nations may KNOW Me (God Almighty), when I (God Almighty) AM Hallowed in YOU, O Gog, before Their Eyes.”  Thus says The LORD GOD: “Are YOU (Gog), He (Gog) of whom I (God Almighty) have SPOKEN in Former Days by My (God Almighty’s) Servants, The Prophets of Israel, who Prophesied for years in Those Days that I (God Almighty) would bring YOU (Gog) AGAINST Them (God Almighty’s People, Israel)?

Ezekiel 38:18-23

“And it will come to pass at The Same Time, when Gog comes AGAINST The Land of Israel,” says The LORD GOD, “that My (God Almighty’s) Fury will SHOW in My (God Almighty’s) Face.  For in My (God Almighty’s) Jealousy and in The Fire of My (God Almighty’s) Wrath I (God Almighty) have Spoken: ‘Surely in That Day there shall be a Great Earthquake in The Land of Israel, so that the fish of The Sea, the birds of The Heavens, the beasts of the field, all creeping things that creep on The Earth, and All Men who are on The Face of The Earth shall SHAKE at My (God Almighty’s) Presence.  The mountains shall be THROWN DOWN, the steep places shall FALL, and every wall shall FALL to the ground.’  I (God Almighty) will Call for a Sword AGAINST Gog throughout All My (God Almighty’s) Mountains,” says The LORD GOD.  “Every man’s sword will be AGAINST his brother.  And I (God Almighty) will bring Him (Gog) to JUDGMENT with Pestilence and Bloodshed; I (God Almighty) will RAIN DOWN on Him (Gog), on His (Gog’s) Troops, and on The Many Peoples who are with Him (Gog), Flooding Rain, Great Hailstones, Fire, and Brimstone.  Thus I (God Almighty) will MAGNIFY Myself (God Almighty) and SANCTIFY Myself (God Almighty), and I (God Almighty) will be KNOWN in The Eyes of Many Nations.  Then They (The Many Nations) shall KNOW that I (God Almighty) AM The LORD.”’

 

Ezekiel 39:1-10

 

“And YOU, son of man (Ezekiel), Prophesy AGAINST Gog, and say, ‘Thus says The LORD GOD: “Behold, I (God Almighty) AM AGAINST YOU, O Gog, The Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; and I (God Almighty) will Turn YOU (Gog) Around and Lead YOU (Gog) on, bringing YOU (Gog) up from The Far North, and bring YOU (Gog) AGAINST The Mountains of Israel.  Then I (God Almighty) will KNOCK the bow out of Your Left (Gog’s) Hand, and cause the arrows to FALL OUT of Your (Gog’s) Right Hand.  YOU (Gog) shall FALL upon The Mountains of Israel, YOU (Gog) and All Your (Gog’s) Troops and The Peoples who are with YOU (Gog); I (God Almighty) will give YOU (Gog) to birds of prey of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be DEVOURED.  YOU (Gog) shall FALL on the open field; for I (God Almighty) have SPOKEN,” says The LORD GOD.  “And I (God Almighty) will SEND Fire on Magog and on those who live in security in The Coastlands.  Then they shall KNOW that I (God Almighty) AM The LORD.  So I (God Almighty) will make My Holy (God Almighty) Name KNOWN in The Midst of My People Israel, and I (God Almighty) will NOT let Them (God Almighty’s People, Israel) PROFANE My Holy (God Almighty) Name ANYMORE.  Then The Nations shall KNOW that I (God Almighty) AM The LORD, The Holy One in Israel.  Surely it is COMING, and it shall be DONE,” says The LORD GOD.  “This is The Day of which I (God Almighty) have SPOKEN.

“Then Those (The People of Israel) who dwell in The Cities of Israel will go out and set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and bucklers, the bows and arrows, the javelins and spears; and They (The People of Israel) will make fires with them (the weapons) for Seven Years.  They (The People of Israel) will NOT take wood from the field NOR cut down any from the forests, because They (The People of Israel) will make fires with the weapons; and They (The People of Israel) will plunder those who plundered Them (The People of Israel), and pillage those who pillaged Them (The People of Israel),” says The LORD GOD (God Almighty).

 

Ezekiel 39:11-16

 

“It will come to pass in That Day that I (God Almighty) will give Gog a burial place there in Israel, The Valley of those who pass by East of The Sea; and it will obstruct travelers, because there They (The People of Israel) will bury Gog and All His (Gog’s) Multitude.  Therefore They (The People of Israel) will call it The Valley of Hamon Gog.  For Seven Months The House of Israel will be burying them, in order to CLEANSE The Land.  Indeed All The People of The Land will be burying, and They (The People of Israel) will gain RENOWN for it on The Day that I (God Almighty) AM Glorified,” says The LORD GOD.  “They (The People of Israel) will set apart men, regularly employed, with the help of a Search Party, to pass through The Land and bury those bodies remaining on the ground, in order to CLEANSE it.  At the end of Seven Months, They (The Search Party) will make a search.  The Search Party will pass through The Land; and when ANYONE sees a man’s bone, he shall set up a marker by it, till the buriers have buried it in The Valley of Hamon Gog.  The name of The City will also be Hamonah.  Thus They (The Search Party) shall CLEANSE The Land.”’

Fellow Believers, this is a Battle in which a Great Army shall seek to destroy God Almighty’s People, Israel.  “Gog” will assemble a Great Army and attack Israel, but Israel itself, will NOT defeat Gog’s Army.  God Almighty, Himself, will DEFEND Israel, that’s right, God Almighty will DESTROY Gog’s Army, and ALL will KNOW that God Almighty IS The One and ONLY God Almighty!
