Who are the Countries in Ezekiel 38 Invasion?

 

Here comes the invasion of Israel described in Ezekiel 38. 

What you need to understand is that God is not going to let one prophetic event run it's course before another one starts. Many things are going to happen overlapping or simultaneously.

The best I can do is give you the basics and let you go and discover the truth for yourself. 

One of the major events of the Final Days, which is imminent, is the invasion of Israel by several countries. The Bible describes this invasion in extreme detail in Ezekiel 38. The main thing you need to know to unlock the contents of this invasion is the modern names of the countries mentioned, then it will  read like the lastest news.

EZEKIEL INFO:

"Gog" is not a country but rather the title for Governor or Ruler. Therefore the "Gog of Magog" means the ruler of  Magog.

COUNTRIES: Ezekiel Name/Modern Name

(These are the Countries to Watch for In the News)

Magog = Russia

Meshek =Russia/Turkey

Tubal = Russia/Turkey

Persia = Iran

Cush = Ethiopia

Put = Libya

Gomer = Turkey

Togarmah = Turkey

Ethiopia = Sudan

Libya = Libya

Sheba = Saudi Arabia

Dedan = Saudi Arabia

Merchants of Tarshish = Europe    

Those are the main invaders of Israel and players in this scenario. Because of civil unrest and extreme financial problems these countries unite to invade Israel primarily to take her wealth.

They will be motivated by God to do this. 

"I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army."

The other nations will watch but nobody will come to Israel's aid because God wants to use the opportunity to show that He and He alone is miraculously saving His people Israel.

"there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel

..."

"Every man’s sword will be against his brother.  I will execute judgment on him [Gog] with plague and bloodshed; I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him." 

And the reason for all of this will be ...

"And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord."

And so, as we enter into these Final Days of earth, God will make sure everyone can see that these are supernatural events that cannot be explained away and that He is solely responsible for Israel's deliverance. Now as you read Ezekiel 38 it will be very easy to comprehend.

A couple of things I should make clear. The anti-Christ is not leading this invasion. It is before he rises to power.

 Also, it  is not primarily motivated by Islam, nor is this an Islamic alliance, which is made clear when you read Ezekiel 38 for yourself.

 Try to set aside denominational biases beliefs and speculation and stick just to Biblical facts. Many previous theories put forth through the years have shown themselves now to be nothing more than wild, personal assumptions and speculations long held by specific denominations. 

As I searched for a basic map to show you, they were all tainted by beliefs now shown to have not happened. 

I finally I found a simple map that  just shows the countries' original names back in the times of Ezekiel.

* NOTE:  There is some debate about how these countries overlap, but since Ezekiel 38 just lists them as a group the point  is moot.

When doing  your own research remember to look at the DATEs of  the articles. Many "facts" have since been proven  wrong because they were based merely on personal speculation and/or denominational  prejudices instead of solely on the Scriptures.

All these things are going to happen. There is no stopping them. But we know in advance because God is allowing us a chance to realize we are fragile and powerless, but HE IS NOT.

"In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge;

let me never be put to shame;

save me by Your righteousness.

Incline Your ear to me;

come quickly to my rescue.

Be my rock of refuge,

the stronghold of my deliverance."

Read your Bible and "be prepared, not scared."
