A Shocking Reality: Is the Ezekiel 38 and 39 war Prophecy Unfolding in the Holy Land before our eyes

The battle between Gog and Magog described in Ezekiel 38–39 and the one described in Revelation 20,
take place at different times and are separated by a thousand years of the Messiah’s rule.
It is evident that both the books of Revelation and Ezekiel use similar terminology to depict an event characterised by some similarities,
namely an assault on the people of God, Israel. However, there are also discernible differences between the two.
The first difference is in the portrayal of Satan’s attempted invasion of Israel in the book of Revelation as a complete and unequivocal failure.
Satan’s armies are consumed by fire in the location near to the encampment of righteous Israel.
This, God’s righteous judgement, happens before the invaders begin their mission.
The invasion depicted in the biblical passages of Ezekiel 38-39, however, is portrayed as a success rather than a disaster,
this very important, but often overlooked detail in Ezekiel’s account.
In delving into our analysis of Ezekiel 38 and 39 war, it becomes evident that the state of Israel,
finds itself ensnared within the confines of a deceptive semblance of security.
One must bear in mind the poignant words from the scriptures: "I will invade a land of unwalled villages,
I will attack a peaceful and unsuspecting people, all of them living without walls and without gates and bars" (Ezekiel 38:12, 13).
