War with Iran Is Here: Operation Epic Fury + Lion’s Roar
BREAKING — Overnight / early morning a joint U.S.-Israeli military operation against Iran was launched beginning with widespread airstrikes. Targets include regime leadership residences and operation centers. Some sources suggest Khamenei may have been eliminated, but this has yet to be confirmed. Iran is retaliating, already targeting Israel and U.S. military assets in numerous Gulf countries. Jeremiah 49 is in view. This has been 47 years in the making, and the decision was made by America’s 47th president. Purim, commemorating Israel’s ancient victory over Persia (Iran) via God’s providential use of Esther and Mordecai, begins in two days. Coincidence isn’t kosher. Stay tuned.

It is called operation Epic Fury (America) and Lion's Roar (Israel)
ReplyDeleteThe prophecy of Elam (Jeremiah 49:34-39) foretells the judgment of an ancient nation—located in modern-day Iran—due to its military aggression. God declares He will "break the bow of Elam" (its main strength), scatter its people, and destroy its leadership.
This prophecy is literally being fulfilled today!
And a rare blood moon on March 3rd and a six planet alignment is literally happening today!
And the war of Gog and Magog is rapidly forming!
Talk about prophetical!!!
It's getting REAL.
DeleteKhamenei dead.
ReplyDeleteHard to imagine a more apt prelude to Israel's cries of "peace and safety" — the false security preceding the sudden birth pangs of rapture + tribulation. Iran/Persia is Israel's ancient enemy and greatest modern opponent. They've spent nearly half a century worried about Iran.
ReplyDeleteRE: Operation Epic Fury and Roaring Lion
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing times and key prophetic milestones are occurring before our very eyes. But those that had discussed the triple Purim Blood Moons of 2024-2025-2026, knew that something like this was going to happen at this time-frame as one interpreted the as a sort of countdown.
I cannot recall if I had shared this assessment of the ‘Prince of Persia’ article and video synopsis. It is based on 2024 events, but the points presented are still relevant in retrospect. So, one just likes to add this piece to the conversation based on one’s assessment and interpretation.
But also, be cautious. Although the Prince of Persia has taken a mortal blow to its earthly representative, this Principality is to return 1 day for the Gog-Magog War. Or in other words, Iran is down but not out. Nonetheless, Israel has amazingly managed to destroy the Shi’ite Triangle: Iran-Syria-Yemen. One’s point is that despite all this, present events are not the beginning of the Gog-Magog war, but it is just another war in the steps to get there.
Iran and Russia’s military is exhausted if not decimated. One finds it hard to be convinced they can lead what the Gog-Magog War requires, a massive worldwide military endeavor. Also, Israel is not dwelling ‘safely and in un-walled villages’, etc. In one’s opinion also, there is nothing better than a war to distract a nation from delving deeper into just how implicated Trump is in the Epstein Files.

As my wonderful daddy used to say, "in my way of thinking".... This is precisely what is happening! Breaking Elam's bow....Israel will feel safe and peaceful....and somehow Iran will be able to rally and find a way (something hidden?) for Gog-Magog war! Its possible anyway. ๐คท♀️
DeleteBut then " in my way of thinking"....rapture is imminent.. Nothing has to happen before we go "any minute"... Imminent. So WOO-HOO!!! Even so Lord Jesus come!!!
Oh...one more thing.
DeleteAs far as Trump goes...he is in God's hands and God is using him for His purpose. So even if in human eyes it is to distract, it is God using his actions to bring about His purpose. He will someday face judgment or someday meet Christ and be forgiven.
I pray it's forgiveness.
This war is maybe a catalyst for the beginning of the Tribulation Period when the antichrist from the Revived Roman Empire will confirm a peace agreement with Israel and many other nations.
ReplyDeleteWar begets more war in the last days with, as you point out, this one being a crucial turning point.
DeleteIf interested, a video was done on The Last Battle Before the Tribulation, which I discuss and have a link to in my article IS ADAR 2026 THE BEGINNING OF THE END? OR What’s With All the Deer?
Merlin--Thanks for tying in the Elam/Iran prophecy with this operation for indeed the news is coming out that the area of Elam is being struck (where the Bushehr nuclear reactor is located). If anybody hears about that facility being hit, please let us know!
ReplyDeleteGary--AMEN to "Hard to imagine a more apt prelude to Israel's cries of "peace and safety" — the false security preceding the sudden birth pangs of rapture + tribulation." It is looking REAL GOOD for a 2026 ๐️FINAL Peace & Safety Cry, Nukes๐ฅ & Demonic "Aliens" ๐ธCome Down & We Go Up⬆️
Purim blood moon ๐ด can be seen partially Tuesday night around 6 PM on the USA East Coast. (More details at: Plugging in March-June Prophecies IF 2026 is the Year of the Rapture!)

Haman and the sons of him are no longer. They have been delivered into the hands of the sons of Israel. The toxon (bow) of Elam has been broken; the word of G-D has been fulfilled.
ReplyDeleteAll glory to the L-RD G-D,
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
[my Yeshua] whom shall I fear? The LORD
is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I
be afraid?
2 When evildoers assail me to eat up
my flesh, my adversaries and foes,
it is they who stumble and fall.
3 Though an army encamp against
me, my heart shall not fear; though
war arise against me, yet I will be
confident.
(Psalm 27:1-3 ESV)
Amen, and amen.
All eyes on Jesus, all hope in Christ,
Pastor Rich
"The toxon (bow) of Elam has been broken; the word of G-D has been fulfilled."
DeleteHow do you know? How do we know what is being struck and and not?
We have no report that all their launchers and nuke factories are gone.
God says that HE personally will break that bow, not the US air-force.
It could be that He does this during the Gog and Magog invasion, causing Iranians to flee the country to escape (possibly) the radioactivity or chemical spray from factories getting destroyed by an earthquake.
I so tire of people so desperate for this to kick off coming here and claiming this and that has been fulfilled.
We will know when God breaks something.
Yawn.
RE: Israel’s Samson Option
ReplyDeleteContinuing in the theme of the US-Israeli strike on Iran, here is a further synthesis of what I believe could happen next and why. One’s main point is that it will not be Iran that will lob the 1st Nuclear missile at Israel. Rather, it will be Israel that will, but not at Tehran. It will be in Damascus. This is, of course, if one interprets Isaiah 17 as being just that and a prophecy yet to be fulfilled.
Israel nearly employed this Samson Option during the 1973 Yom Kippur War. In fact, according to the former CIA Officer, John Chris Kiriakou, he was the Whistleblower that exposed how the CIA was indeed using Water-Boarding torture techniques. He was sent to prison for that. But he stated on a podcast that back in 2025, he was informed that Israel warned Trump that if the USA did not bomb Iran, Israel would use their Nukes against Iran.
So, for your discernment.
Keep the Watch,

RE: March 3rd Purim Blood Moon – Number 3 associations
DeleteHere is a comprehensive list of how this coming Purim Blood Moon has very particular numerical associations with the number 3. Feel free to add to the list.
In Astrology, it is understood that the ‘Energies’ of a Full Moon occur 3 days before and 3 days after a Full Moon. Here below is the list of how this particular Blood Moon, has a factor of the number 3 incorporated into it in more ways than 1. I first got a glimpse of this number 3 association from a Brother in Christ, Dan H. about a week ago as of this post.
________________________
1. 3:33 am Maximum local time, West Coast USA or 11:33 UTC.
2. 33rd month later when the next Blood Moon occurs in 2028, December 31.
From Pastor Rich, who posted on Unsealed.org
3. 3 days before March 3 is Purim on the Essene Calendar.
General knowledge.
4. 3rd day of the month.
5. 3rd month of the Gregorian Year.
6. 33 degrees rising from the horizon according to Jim Todd of Oregon Museum of Science and Industry OMSI.
_______________________
The website BibleStudy.org has a thorough synopsis of the meaning of the number 3 to consider and study. It goes to show just how intricate the Signs in the Sun, Moon and the Stars are. YHVH is a clock smith, the keeper of time, right down to the numbers.

The blood moon was quite interesting.
DeleteRE: Purim Blood Moon
DeleteGary,
I saw the Blood Moon last night at 3:33 am local time here in Northern California. It was nice and clear and spectacular.
I have a feeling that perhaps this might be our last Blood Moon before the Rapture as the next one is 2 year away. Then it turned out that exactly at 3:03 am, local time, is when the Totality phase started.
In all the Blood Moons since I have been tracking, since 2008-09, there has never been one like this one with such an emphasis on the number 3 on not just 1 or 2 levels but beyond statistical randomness. I think GOD is trying to tell us something here. :)
Keeping the Watch,

The war will become much. much worse, see https://edition.cnn.com/2026/03/02/politics/trump-interview-iran-jake-tapper "Trump tells CNN the ‘big wave’ is yet to come in war with Iran". When that is going to happen, the whole Middle-East will be one big fire cauldron and no oil and LNG will come from there.
ReplyDeleteThis war with Iran will evolve into World War 3, which will also involve Europe when it will be attacked by Russia, see https://endtimeheadlines.org/2026/03/russians-threatens-military-strikes-on-europe-in-revenge-for-iran-trump-untied-our-hands/ "Russians threatens military strikes on Europe in revenge for Iran – ‘Trump untied our hands’".
I think that a war in Europe combined with an economic collapse with natgas, oil, power and food shortages could be the main catalyst for the formation of the Revived Roman Empire and the arrival of the antichrist from that empire.
I believe you're right, Moin. In fact,
DeleteBeloved Brethren--
It has been reported that social media is exploding with fears of a mandatory military draft coming.
I wrote my latest article with these young people in mind--specifically the UNsaved, so disseminate as you are led by the Holy Spirit:
SPRING WARS BRING…a June 2026 Military DRAFT?!
Welp... https://x.com/sentdefender/status/2028847414774280285?s=20
ReplyDeleteThe Israeli Air Force just wiped out the next 88 Ayatollahs.
DeleteRE: Israel’s Demon Wars?
ReplyDeleteAs Believers and Followers of Jesus, we know from both the Old and New Testament that there is a duality of realities existing in our 3rd Dimension of existence. And that Earth is ‘Ground Zero’ for the battle of one’s body, mind and soul.
Humanity has been interjected into a Cosmic and Angelic War since before Eden on Earth. And here is one’s attempt to synthesis this phenomenon in how during war, as in the Israel-Iran war that rages below, demonic manifestations appear to occur in tandem. For those interested in this supposition, have a look.
Blessings,

And Spiritual Warfare
https://youtu.be/ZhRTLZPEyN0
Think of how enraged the Prince of Persia is right now. On Saturday, when the ayatollah died, the reading in the Synagogue was “Remember Amalek….” Haman and the ayatollah are both descendants and the Jews read his name as Hameini. The bomb he was building for them led to his demise by their bombs on the Islamic calendar date 9/11. And now it’s Purim when the Jews were delivered from Haman’s plot to destroy them in Persia. Yes, Lu, not surprised that much demonic activity is taking place in the heavens over Iran.
ReplyDeleteRE: Islamic Calendar 9-11 and the prophetic irony and all?
DeleteWoe. Well, how about that? I will have to add this post as an addendum the Article.
It is a really good insight.
Thanks Double AA,

Very welcome, LuLu. Hat tip to Amir Tsarfati and his Telegram channel where I first learned of the date on the Islamic calendar.
DeleteRE: Israel’s Shi’ite Triangle
ReplyDeleteAs it seems that ‘All is Quiet on the Rapture Front’, for now, the clichรฉ is that the world is not falling apart but falling into place. What also challenges how to discern what is occurring in these Last Days and especially regarding this latest Israel-Iran War is what one sees in the mainstream news and on social media. Are the images and videos real or A.I. generated?
It is hard to distinguish which ones are real, which plays into the End Times deception and disinformation factors. Surely, deception it is what Jesus warned firstly about what was going to be the challenge just before His return. For example, you have reports that Tel Aviv is being decimated and destroyed and looks like Gaza.
Then on the other hand, you have reports that the U.S. has destroyed all of Iran’s Navy, Air Defenses and Missile Launchers. Satellite imagery has confirmed the latter, but not for Tel Aviv, for example. Why not? Yet why is Iran apparently still able to lob missiles across the Gulf region? Are the American Military bases all destroyed as some reports claim? Is the Strait of Hormuz open or closed? Who is going to run out of munitions first at this rate? All the while, both sides publicly state that their supply is endless.
If all the religious and military leadership of Iran have been wiped-out, why is there no total collapse of the Iranian Revolutionary Regime, yet? And why is their still a viable Iranian retaliation still possible with all that the USA and Israel have thrown at Iran? It has reported that Israel had dispatched over 200 of its Air Force against Iran, the largest since 1948 for its Air Force, for example.
It is also unprecedented that over 10 nations have been attacked by Iran in the region. This did not even happen during World War 2 with Nazi Germany. This latest iteration of the Israel-Iran Wars has surely lit the fuse, as they say, and has set the core of the entire Middle East ablaze. If one measures this outcome to the conspiratorial letter from Albert Pike pertaining to the 3rd leg in the Luciferian Plan to usher the AntiChrist, then it would appear, that this latest move in the geo-political chess game is right on track to exasperate the entire world with this war between ‘Political Zionism’ and Radical Islam.
If any are interesting in a synthesis of geo-politics, military, history, and End Times prophecy, then this YouTube video below will attempt to further explain a contextual factor of what has contributed to this latest Israel-Iran War, understanding the Shi’ite Triangle Israel has faced. It will help put some factors into perspective.
