In the early hours of Sunday June 22, 2025 America committed itself to fighting an all-out war with Iran. Seven B2 Bombers dropped their payload of “Bunker Busting Bombs” and their naval vessels launching Tomahawk missiles on three nuclear facilities in Iran. The attack was swift, silent and strategic.
Fourteen Bunker busting payloads were dropped from the air on the three major nuclear sites, Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan. Around two dozen Tomahawk missiles were launched from American naval vessels that hit the Isfahan nuclear site as well. The whole operation took around 25minutes.
Intel from America stated that all three sites sustained very severe damage and destruction. Iran denied this and has vowed revenge and to retaliate.
We know that Iran has been financing terrorist groups and their activities throughout the Middle-East, but also financing Islamic “sleeper cells” in the western democracies, especially in Europe, Great Britain and in America.
In Daniel Chapter 10 we have an end-time prophecy concerning Iran which in Daniel’s time was called Persia. We are also told that Elam was another ancient name for Iran.
In this chapter in Daniel the prophet had a vision of the pre-existent Messiah our Lord Jesus, the Living eternal Word of God who became a flesh and blood man and who tabernacled among us, being fully God and fully man in the same body (Daniel 10:4-6) See also (John 1:1-5, 14-15) (1 John 1:1-2).
Ezekiel also saw the Messiah in His eternal glory before He became a flesh and blood man and it was the same vision as Daniel had seen (Ezekiel 1:24-28).
The apostle John saw the Resurrected Messiah emanating with the same glory He had with the Father before His incarnation, and it was the Lord Jesus with a resurrected glorified human body (Revelation 1:12-18).
In Daniel Chapter 10 the pre-existent Messiah our Lord Jesus, told Daniel that He had heard Daniel’s prayer but that the prince of Persia had resisted Him for 21 days in the unseen spiritual realm out of time as we know it down here on earth.
This powerful spiritual entity, or we might say the territorial spirit, had undoubtedly been commissioned by Satan to have authority over the nation of Persia.
The opposition was so intense that the Messiah called upon Michael the Archangel (of war), one of the chief angels, to help Him as He was being resisted by this principality over Persia (Daniel 10:12-13). While the prophecy had an historical application its main thrust is related to the end of the age (Daniel 10:14).
The Messiah Himself reassured and strengthened Daniel to cope with this awesome vision and giving Daniel the strength to ask His Messiah to speak to Him (Daniel 10: 15-19).
Now the Messiah told Daniel why He had come to Him and we will look at what He said to Daniel as it related to the future, and to the end of this present age.
We are told about two nations, Persia and Greece, that both had principalities ruling over them and whom were being resisted by Michael, the Archangel who protects Israel, and will fight for Israel in the last days, especially when Israel goes into the time of Great Tribulation (Daniel 12:1-2) (Matthew 24:21-22).
(Daniel 10:20-21) “So he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Soon I will return to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I go, the prince of Greece will come; but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth. (No one supports me against them except Michael, your prince…”)
Historically we know that it was the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great that defeated the Persian Empire. Both the King of Persia and Alexander were no doubt under the power of very powerful principalities as were all the kings of those ancient empires.
What the pre-existent Messiah says to Daniel prophetically relates to the end of the age. Today the prince that was over Persia (Iran) is still over that nation today and controlling the wicked and demonic regime.
Historically, since the time of Cyrus the Persians were friends of Israel and the former Shah of Iran, who traced his ethnic roots back to the Peacock throne of Cyrus Himself, who decreed the return of the Jewish exiles to the Holy land, was friendly towards Israel.
However in 1979 when the Sha of Iran was ousted by Ayatollah Khomeini and his Islamic jihadist sadistic henchmen, that wicked principality once more had a grip on the ruling regime and ruled over Iran.
Hence we have seen how the Iranian regime hates the Jews and has financed all of the terrorist activity in the Middle-East towards Israel and hostile towards any nation that supports the Jewish state.
This severe vehemence towards Israel and America is clearly seen in those that follow the regime shouting out “death to Israel” and “death to America.” Since the Americans took out the three nuclear sites Iran has now responded with missiles targeting the US Airforce base in Qatar. The war is escalating.
Now we are told that President Trump has brokered a cease fire “deal” between Israel with Iran. Iranian missiles are being launched against the US Airbase in Qatar! Will Iran now renege on their threat of “death to Israel” and “death to America”? Wake up western leaders you cannot make peace with Islam! They are past masters at taqiyya, (the Islamic art of lying and using disinformation and misinformation in a time of Jihad to protect themselves and to deceive their enemies). This is what the Iranian regime is up to!
Now the Messiah tells Daniel that He will be back to fight once again against this principality over Iran and when He has finished fighting him He will go, however, the principality over “Greece” will come (Daniel 10:20).
Today Iran is being decimated and the Triune God of the armies of Israel has been at work through Israel and America to strip the Iranian regime of its power. The shift of demonic power is shifting from Iran, however, what nation is it that will replace Iran? We will see what nation it is…
However, the regime in Iran itself, and what is left of its Islamic armies, will, in the future, join the armies of the other nations when they attack Israel as we see Iran mentioned (Ezekiel 38:5a).
The Ali Hosseini Khamenei, if he survives and what is left of his entourage, may well find asylum in an Islamic country. Iran “will be out but not down for the count” but will have a comeback!
Now we are told that when the principality over Iran has had “his teeth pulled,” as it were; that the principality over Greece (“Grecia” KJV) will come.
Historically it was the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great who conquered the Persians and no doubt Alexander, who suffered from epilepsy, that in his case was a demonic occult demon that had control over him (Note: Not all epilepsy is demonic). However, in Alexander’s case it would have been so.
The entire ancient pagan empires were all steeped in idolatry which the Bible tells us is the worship of demons, and the Greeks had many ‘gods.’ (Deuteronomy 32:16-17) (Psalm 106:36-37) (1 Corinthians 10:20).
Now it is interesting to note that the Hebrew word for “Greece” can be translated as “yavan” of “ionia.” Alexander had two legs to his empire. One of course was in Greece and in much of Europe but he also had a Middle-Eastern leg of his empire. Ionia was a nation in the Middle-East under Greek control. It was located in modern day Turkey.
When we look at the current situation in the Middle East today we see the nation of Turkey becoming centre stage in Islam. Erdogan wants the whole of Syria as he knows that it gives him direct access to Israel which he has made it clear that he does not want the Jews to stay in Israel.
When Assad was in power Iran was able to move weapons through Syria to Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis and other terrorist groups operating in Iraq. Syria under the Assad regime was Shiite Islam as Iran is Shiite Islam. Together they had control of Syria.
When the Assad regime was ousted by the regime of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, also known by his nom de guerre Abu Mohammad al-Julani, backed by Turkey, Syria came under Sunni control as both al-Julani and Erdogan are Sunni Muslims. Sunni is the largest sect of Islam and is an ideology/ religion that are followed by as many as 90% of the 1.5 billion Muslims around the world today.
We know that the whole Islamic world is waiting on the last Mahdi of Islam to lead all Muslims on a global Jihad the likes of which has never been seen in past Islamic history against Israel and the western democracies.
Erdogan’s forbears was the Turkish Ottoman Caliphate which ruled throughout the whole Middle East and Israel for just over 600 years, and at the zenith of its power under Suleiman the Magnificent, had its “tentacles” reaching into Europe.
Of course today there is no doubt that the man from Turkey wants to resurrect the Turkish Ottoman Empire of his forebears. He has already publically called on all Muslims to rise up against Israel and to take control of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
With the American bombing of the Iranian nuclear facilities, and with the constant air strikes of the Israeli air force, even though Iran is fighting back, it would seem that the principality over Persia is waning in power, as the Lord Jesus and Michael in the eternal unseen eternal realm are using America on earth supporting Israel to strip Iran of its power, even though the regime somehow will survive to join the Ezekiel 38 invasion force against Israel.
The fight against the principality over Iran is seeing Iran being stripped of its missile capabilities, even though it is still sending missiles into Israel and threatening retaliation against America. The principality over Iran is losing its stronghold on that nation as we are told in Daniel Chapter 10.
However, Satan never sleeps and has another principality that is gaining power over Turkey. We know from Ezekiel chapter 38 that Turkey will lead the armies that invade Israel and the conquest of Jerusalem for Islam being the ultimate goal.
In Ezekiel Chapter 38 the nations that attack Israel are all specifically named and today they are all Islamic nations and would be mostly Sunni Muslim.
Of the eight nations mentioned, five are all located on ancient maps in modern day Turkey. The power of the principality over Persia (Iran) is waning; however, the power of the principality over Grecia / ionia (Turkey) is rising!
When the Time of Jacob’s Trouble comes for Israel and for the whole world in fact, at that time Michael, that great God ordained principality who protects Israel, will “go to bat” for the seed of Abraham Isaac and Jacob big time, and even though Israel goes into the Time of the Big Trouble they will be saved out of it at the end when they encounter the Messiah our Lord Jesus at His Second Coming! (Daniel 12:1-4) (Jeremiah 30:1-1-10) (Zechariah 12:9-13:1) (Romans 11:25-29). Selah.
