Israel wins victory over tyrants

Today Israel is being threatened by tyrants from Iran and Turkey just as Israel has found gas and oil off her coast line. Seems same conditions existed in time of Abraham and Joseph.

Abraham entered Egypt during a time of lawlessness when men would kill other men to obtain their wives. Genesis 12:12. This was the last years of Egyptian king Pepi II's reign when lawlessness reigned over Egypt. Abraham also lived in dangerous times like modern Israel does today. Abraham left Egypt a wealthy man Genesis 13:2 like Israel is becoming wealthy today.

Joseph entered Egypt and lived under a wicked king whom had his chief baker's head cut off. Genesis 40:20. Egyptian king Senusert III would also invade Nubia and brutally slaughter the Nubians hacking them to pieces. Joseph's family entered Egypt in Senusert III's 20th year and settled in the land of Rameses, Egypt set aside for shepherds since Egyptians thought shepherds were an abomination. Genesis 46:34. Joseph's family prospered in Egypt.

God gives Israel prosperity during the time of the most dangerous tyrants in history. Today we have Ezekiel 38:13 when 38:5 Iran and her allies attack Israel and Israel wins victory. These are dangerous times, so follow the words of your prophets and Israel will prosper.
