Where do you see us on God’s prophetic time clock?

I see us on God’s prophetic time clock, right at the almost-midnight hour. The reason for that is because we are the generation that has seen the Jewish people return to the land of Israel. I believe that is the key factor—Israel had to be brought back to the land in unbelief. And in that state of unbelief, there had to be pressure, difficulties, and tribulation brought upon them.

We see the beginning of that in our time as we look at the Middle East conflict. Ultimately, the real key to the chronological unfolding of God’s divine plan is Jerusalem itself—the city that was overtaken by the Gentiles way back in 586 BC. Daniel predicts it will finally be delivered once Jesus Christ comes.

Today, we see the conflict at a proportion never seen before. We see Jews ready to rebuild the Temple. We see Muslims fighting over the site. We see the whole world engaged and focused on Jerusalem as the centerpiece of prophecy.

I believe that’s the focal point. The stage is being set, the curtain is about to go up, and the divine drama will unfold. We are at a very pivotal point in history.
