If someone you HATED with a passion predicted you will do something, would you intentionally avoid doing it, just to spite that person? What if the prediction of what you will do will end in a massive disaster, but it was something you deep down, actually WANTED to do?!
In Ezekiel 38, 39 and Revelation 20, The Lord, through the prophet, Ezekiel, and Apostle John, predicted someone named Gog will be the principal instigator in a coalition invasion of Israel, and later, an attempted global invasion of Jerusalem.
• The first invasion will occur during the 4th Biblical age of human history—the tribulation age—and will pre-date both Armageddon and the Millennial Reign age—the 5th Biblical age of human history. The Lord will end the Ezekiel 38/39 invasion by:
o Turning soldiers’ weapon against each other,
o Triggering pestilence and bloodshed, and
o Flooding the battlefield with rain, great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
• The second invasion will occur during the 6th Biblical age of human history—the post-Millennial Reign age, and will post-date Armageddon. The Lord will end the Revelation 20 attempted invasion by:
o Raining down fire from Heaven,
o Casting satan and his entire kingdom into the brimstone-lit lake of fire, where the anti-Christ global leader (during the tribulation age) and his false prophet (possibly a prime minister-type) will have been cast a thousand years earlier!
This sequence signals there will be more than a thousand years between these two invasions. Ergo, it signals to me that Gog might not be a human leader. In First Ukraine, Next Israel’s Terrain?!, and Favoring Gog! (Series), posit a plausible framework for intuiting who Gog might be, and why The Lord is so vehemently against him.
The Significance of This?
1. The Lord has a special attraction to Jerusalem, perhaps because it is where He will spend His long-promised Millennial Reign as Earth’s Global King. His attraction is unlikely related to political Israel. Though the two Gog-instigated invasions will be over a thousand years apart, they will literally ‘sandwich’ The Lord’s Millennial reign. Though they will both end in a fiery defeat of all human invasion forces, they will perfectly achieve a significant part of satan’s dual, multi-millennial strategic objectives:
• To tempt as many humans as possible to join the ongoing rebellion (i.e., sin) he initiated when he was Lucifer—a high-ranking, holy angel; and
• To deceive them into joining his entire kingdom in the awful judgment The Lord has planned for them—eternal confinement in a brimstone-lit lake of fire, very likely as sentient, immortal beings.
2. Both invasions will serve as further proofs of The Lord’s professed credentials. Throughout human history, His prophecies becoming historical facts prove His Divinity—though sadly, we are disinclined to recognize this Truth.
3. The final invasion will demonstrate the sheer depth of demonic deceptions during the post-Millennial Reign age! People participating in the invasion might not have learned any spiritual insights from the (then) history of the tribulation age—including how the earlier (Ezekiel 38/39 and Armageddon) invasions of Israel will have ended—or from the extent to which Godly righteousness will dominate the Millennial Reign age!
4. Even after having been locked away from Earth for over a millennium, satan’s kingdom will not have lost its ‘tempting and deceiving edge’ over humans! His entire kingdom will know the FINAL instigated invasion will be its LAST attempt to MAXIMIZE achievement of its multi-millennial strategic objectives, because after that, all devils and demons will be immediately cast into The Lord’s brimstone-lit lake of fire, per Revelation 20:10.
5. Reflecting on the 2 questions in the first paragraph above, this is what I perceive:
No doubt, satan and his entire kingdom learned of these two predictions after Apostle John published his (circa 95 AD) vision from The Lord. Despite satan’s burning hate for The Lord, and knowing how these invasions will end, he will be strategically un-able and dis-inclined to stop Gog from triggering them because of their significance. The final one will be THE CLIMAX of his multi-millennial strategy to tempt and deceive as many humans as possible to join them in The Lord’s brimstone-lit lake of fire, as sentient, immortal beings FOREVER!
6. What, pray tell, might these FUTURE events reveal about us TODAY?? Here’s my intuition.
Today, we’re spiritually just like our ancestors.
Thus, just like us, so might our successors be.
After a millennium of forced, righteous behaviors,
Most will be …ignorant, spiritually!

Ponder this: Why might The Lord have structured His Millennial Reign to be ‘sandwiched’ in this manner? This question can best be answered by understanding Heaven’s strategic rationale for The Millennial Reign age.
