These verses hold so much significance in the 21st century, when the modern media outlets, can give us so many words & pictures from this strategic part of the world. Yet, in God’s amazing grace, not only Israel is marked for special experiences, but, inspite of many acts of evil planned by the Satanic force behind Islam, the true GOD has wonderful plans for other (even ‘enemy’) nations, like Iran! Jeremiah wrote about God’s blessings specifically for Iran, (called ‘Elam’) about 2,500 years ago! We have seen some fulfillments of prophecy already - so you may have even met someone from Iran in your country, in recent years!

For anyone with a real interest in the Middle East nations, we have written an over-view and general background about these nations. The wonderful truth is that the God of the Bible, has great & loving plans for them & especially, millions of individuals from those nations, whether still living in their homelands or around the world! These are based on Isaiah’s prophecies, where the term, "in that Day" is used repeatedly. There are clearly different ‘Days’ or periods of time, so we offer some thoughts about them. This is a Bible study, (checked by Christian friends in a M.E. country), that you may want to print off & pray & think about more. We long to encourage ‘refugees’ from these nations.

This section of notes, are based especially on Isaiah chapters 13 - 19, specifically.

In this study, we focus specifically on Isaiah 17, regarding Damascus, & chapter 19, about Egypt. We deal with Jeremiah’s prophecies for Iran here & in a separate article, (as above). [Some of these prophecies tie in with a future serious event in Ezekiel 38 & 39. We cannot see all the details - especially of timing, but we suggest you pray over these & even keep some notes in your Bible, to add to or refer back to as they happen?]
