We just witnessed the biggest attack on Israel in 50 years, and as a result the Israeli government has declared war on Hamas. The IDF is already striking strategic targets all over Gaza, but it also appears that a ground invasion could be imminent. As I was reflecting on these events today, the words of Henry Gruver came to mind. All the way back in 2018, Gruver issued a very ominous warning. According to James Bailey, Gruver stated that “when Israel sends troops into Gaza, it will be a sign the Middle East War has started”…

Israel has had ongoing conflicts with Gaza since President George Bush’s administration forced them to evacuate the city and hand it over to the Palestinians in 2005, but there are two reasons why the coming conflict might be a prelude to a larger war. First, a prophetic warning received by Henry Gruver in 2018 remains unfulfilled. The Lord told Henry, “When Israel sends troops into Gaza, it will be a sign the Middle East War has started.”
The phrase “the Middle East War” seems to imply that it will be the really big one that so many of us have been anticipating.
Let’s watch and see what happens over the next few days.
First of all, Benjamin Netanyahu would have to pull the trigger on a full-blown ground invasion of Gaza.
That is no small decision, because a full-blown invasion would be very bloody for both sides.
IDF forces are moving into position for such an invasion right now, but it is Netanyahu that will make the final call.
If an invasion does actually happen, then we will want to watch what Hezbollah does in the north.
On Sunday, they did fire a bunch of missiles into Israel…
Guided missiles and artillery shells from Lebanon pounded targets in Israel Sunday morning as war in the Middle East threatened to spin out of control.
The militant group Hezbollah—which is also a powerful political party in Lebanon—claimed responsibility for the attacks on a disputed territory in the north of Israel hours after President Biden had warned them not to get involved.
For the moment, Hezbollah has ceased fire, but a Hezbollah official has also issued a very alarming warning…
The Hezbollah official referred to his group’s shelling of Israel, saying: “The resistance sent a message this morning.” He said “it is our right to target the enemy that is still occupying our land and the Israelis must read this message well.”
He continued: “There is a message to the Americans and Israelis that what happened in Gaza means that your protracted foolishness and underestimation have led you to the Al-Aqsa Flood [operation], and if you go further today you will witness the flood of the entire nation, not only Al-Aqsa,” Al-Aqsa Flood is the name given to the Hamas assault on Israel.
Safi al-Din warned that “the scene of the storming of settlements around Gaza coupled with rocket shelling will one day be repeated dozens-fold stronger, from Lebanon and from all the areas that are adjacent to occupied Palestine.”
If Israel invades Gaza, I think that it is very likely that Hezbollah will try to come storming in from the north.
If that takes place, we will also want to watch Iran.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Iran played a major role in helping Hamas to plan the surprise attack against Israel…
Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militant group.
Officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had worked with Hamas since August to devise the air, land and sea incursions—the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War—those people said.
Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by IRGC officers and representatives of four Iran-backed militant groups, including Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said.
And it is also being reported that this attack was part of a “broader plan” to “strangle Israel from all sides”…
A direct Iranian role would take Tehran’s long-running conflict with Israel out of the shadows, raising the risk of broader conflict in the Middle East. Senior Israeli security officials have pledged to strike at Iran’s leadership if Tehran is found responsible for killing Israelis.
