“Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.” Ezekiel 38:1-3
God is against Gog of Magog.
In this chapter of Ezekiel, Gog of Magog is described as an earthly and ferocious leader of ruthless armies and many people. They are prophesied to come against Israel like a cloud and a storm. Today on this earth, we can see “Gog of Magog” as the unmerciful and ferocious armies of the world government of the beast and its global culture. They come against Israel like a cloud and a storm. They all meet their destruction in the very last of the last days on this earth.
Gog of Magog is also mentioned in Revelation 20:7-10 as the countries gathered by Satan in an attempt to destroy the resurrected saints of the “1000 year” reign with Jesus Christ. Satan is destroyed and thrown into the eternal lake of fire with the beast and second beast (false prophet). Click here for a post on the “1000 years” and the destruction of Satan and Gog of Magog.
“I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, 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.” Ezekiel 38:4-6
Evey single troop, army, military, and the many people of Gog of Magog will face the fury of the wrath of God. The world government of the beast and its armies are turned around by the will of God
From the “far north and all its troops” for the most part refers to the one that wants to be God, as quoted, “For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregations on the farthest sides of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’” Isaiah 14:13-14 Ezekiel chapter 1 also relates this entity to the space satellites, space station, and space shuttle.
The “far north and all its troops—many people are with you” relates to the armies of the world government and its global culture that lives by the entity giving them what to think, feel, do, and say. This entity enables the image of the beast to live and speak through people in every city around the world. By what they say and do they are groomed to the mark of the beast.
On this earth, we see that the far north refers to Russia/Moscow, which is about 2300 miles north of Jerusalem, as a bird flies. As an atheist country, Russia is very much part of this world system that requires people and nations to live by the entity that governs through thoughts, feelings, words, and behaviors. This entity replaces the human spirit and conscience as a wall is built against belief in God, accepting Jesus Christ, and embracing the Holy Spirit. Russia also has an extremely powerful military. They are definitely the strength of the world government of the beast and have troops and many people. They are the troops and many people of the global culture that welcomes the entity giving them what to feel, think, say, and do.
The military of the world government, along with the armies of people of its global culture, are militant in their opposition to dissenters. Dissenters are those who reject this world system, such as those who live for Jesus Christ and dedicate our body as the home of the Holy Spirit. Even today, there isn’t anywhere in society a “dissenter” can go without facing negative feedback and harshness from the masses of today’s culture. Dissenting nations are also subject to being brutalized by military force.
A day is coming when the Lord is going to destroy the world government, its global culture, and its military. He is going to turn them around, put hooks in their jaws, and lead them out. That day begins to happen in the Fifth Plague of Revelation 16:10-11. That is when the power center of the beast is destroyed and the whole land is filled with darkness. There will be no more uncanny knowledge and heightened intuition. The world government and its global culture will be rendered powerless. In that powerlessness, the Battle of Armageddon arises in the Sixth Plague of Revelation 16:12-17. After that, the Day of the Lord comes, and Jesus Christ returns. Global warming of the Fourth Plague in Revelation 16:8-9 is instrumental in destroying the power center of the beast.
“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
