for two predicted end-times wars in human history.
About how each one has climbed to the top of the heap,
One nation lording it over some or all others.
Winning a war, into hegemon status they sweep.
To victors go spoils or booty of war,
Spoils that help to reimburse the costs,
To help them brighten their ‘hegemon star’,
And help ensure its tenure as ‘boss’.
Since war in all God’s creation was ‘heaven grown’,
By Him, seeds of two end-times wars, not one, have been sown!
Named for evil spirits who over key lands are assigned.
Across Israel, these wars will be sprawled,
Fought by armies who against God Almighty are aligned.
Jesus Christ reigning on Earth as The Lord.
Then Earth will have some rest. From sin’s weight she’ll refuel.
For a thousand years, sinfulness outlawed!
