Iran Expected to Join Hezbollah in Attack on Israel

 My daily Bible reading just happens to be in Psalms and a few days ago was Psalm 83.  While I don't believe that it's a prophecy, it sure is interesting how Asaph the Psalmist named all the enemies sitting on the borders of modern day Israel and asked God to come and destroy them because Israel was feeling totally surrounded and needed God's help.

Tyre is one of the enemies listed and we know that city sits in modern day Lebanon where Hezbollah is launching rockets from.  Hezbollah is also a proxy for Iran who has supplied the thousands of missiles they possess. 

Iran is feeling great pressure to take a swing at Israel since Israel killed a Hamas leader while he was visiting Iran.

Now today we read this headline.

Iran, Hezbollah Now Expected To Attack Israel Jointly 'Within Days'

A revised Israeli intelligence assessment suggests that Iran is slated to launch an assault on the Jewish state "within days" in a joint attack with its Lebanese Hezbollah proxy.

The report, which cited two sources with knowledge of the issue, said that Israeli intelligence indicates Tehran's attack could be launched before the Gaza ceasefire talks scheduled for Thursday.

The report marked a reversal of an Aug. 7 assessment, which had predicted Hezbollah would strike independently to avenge the killing two weeks ago of top commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut by Israel.

Israel's intelligence community still believes Hezbollah will attack first, the sources said.

The attacks are anticipated to be larger and more complicated than Tehran's April strike on the Jewish state and include the launching of missiles and drones at targets in Israel's densely populated center.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant spoke with U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin on Sunday and told him that ongoing Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps preparations suggest Tehran is readying for another large-scale attack, said a source with knowledge of the call.

However, one of the sources with direct knowledge of the most recent Israeli intelligence said that the situation remains "fluid".

Iran blames Israel for the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and has threatened harsh retaliation. Haniyeh's killing came just hours after Israel eliminated Shukr, who served as Hezbollah's No. 2 man, and the terrorist group has also threatened a significant response.

The whole world seems intent on destroying tiny, little Israel and driving those Jews into the sea.

God will use all this antisemitism to drive the Jews back to the promised land in preparation for the final 7 years that start with a peace agreement following the rapture.  

All of these headlines should certainly make it so that Christians who are awake "won't be surprised" if Jesus comes really soon.
