"And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more" (Isaiah 2:4).We live in a day of deception and conflict among nations. Wars and rumors of war have become the norm. As we watch the news on television and the internet, it is apparent that something is brewing; something prophetic of Biblical proportion seems to be on the horizon. God's Word has much to say about the last days. This book serves as a study of the latter times and enable us to consider and better understand current events in view of the Word of God. There is a sense of urgency that we must realize. Believers ought to be urgent in sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work" (John 9:4). I believe the night is rapidly approaching.Most Bible scholars agree that we are living in the "last days". Even unbelievers are growing curious about what the Bible says about end-times. They ask questions about the rise of terrorism, global wars and tensions, increasing anti-Semitism, earthquakes, famines, pestilences, locust plagues in Africa, and most recently, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic that has shaken the world (2019-2020). Never before in my lifetime have I witnessed how quickly entire countries have shut down and come under quarantine restrictions. The economies of the world have come to an abrupt halt. People are searching for answers, and the answers are found in the pages of the Bible.Jesus spoke of deceptions, disputes, disasters, disease, and death that would occur. He spoke of people that would rise up and deceive many. He spoke of people that would falsely claim to be Messiah. He spoke of wars and rumors of wars. He said that nations would rise against nations and kingdoms against kingdoms. He spoke of disasters such as famines, earthquakes, and pestilences. Of course, the Coronavirus Pandemic certainly falls into this category. He spoke of death that would result from persecution and hatred of both Jews and Christians among nations. But then Jesus said something truly amazing "...see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet" (Matthew 24:6).George Burns once said, "I look to the future because that's where I'll spend the rest of my life." In 2020, there are currently 52 worldwide conflicts. The United States Special Ops Forces were deployed to 135 nations in 2019 alone. That is roughly 70% of all the countries on earth. Currently, American Special Ops forces carry out operations in approximately 80-90 nations worldwide every day.The question that remains to be answered is, "When will Isaiah's prophecy come to pass?" Many are familiar with the term, Armageddon. It has become associated with the end of the world. Many believe that Armageddon will be the final war; the war to end all wars, but God's Word says otherwise. WWI was supposed to be "the war to end all wars," but history proved that it wasn't.It may surprise you to learn that there are actually nine (9) "prophetic wars" that must come to pass before Isaiah 2:4 is fulfilled. In this book we will examine all "9 Prophetic Wars" and identify some benchmarks that God has provided for us in the "last days".This book in no way attempts to set dates for the Coming of Jesus Christ. Only God the Father knows when Jesus Christ, His Son, will return (Matthew 24:36). The Rapture of the Church (Secret Coming) is imminent. It can occur at any time. As one preacher put it, "I am not looking for a sign; I am listening for a sound" (1 Corinthians 15:51-54; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).
