It has begun, but it is, and will be an ongoing process. Not a 12-Day War. An ongoing war. Until every word within the Word is accomplished.

Speculation, hearsay, rumors, gossip, conjecture, forecasting, and making certain predictions go against the instruction of Scripture — that does not mean individuals ought to imitate the apathy, the lackadaisical attitude, the downright denial of or avoidance of learning, knowing, understanding, discussing, and preaching of Bible prophecy.

Tragically, too many professing faith in the LORD Jesus Christ do not heed His words. Even when declaring they do. They don’t. Most making the claim to be Christ followers, a disciple of the LORD Jesus Christ, which is what a Christian is, or should be, refuse to search out, embrace, learn, study, speak, and write about, preach from pulpits about Bible prophecy and times such as this. Which are the last of the last days.

All the sign seekers are making a lot of noise but not being still, patient, keenly observing, putting the current events of each day together with the inerrant, infallible, unchangeable, eternal living and active Word of God.

It’s all about God.

It’s all about Jesus.

It’s all about the Holy Spirit — the Great Restrainer, Who will step aside and allow events to unfold.

It’s all about the apostasy in the professed Church, the rise of false teachers, the itching ears, and the increase in different gospels than the One in the Holy Bible.

It’s all about Israel. It’s all about Jerusalem.

It’s all about the door close to being closed on Gentiles and the time of the Jews to FINALLY see Jesus as Messiah. Tragically, many will perish refusing to see.

It’s all about The Great Falling Away, preparing the time.

It’s all about the fulfillment of every word within God’s Word.

Everything else, while disproportionate, being placed primarily and uppermost, must fall under the above.

Ironically, sadly, most misplace what is primary. Most place America, certain politicians, certain events, rumors, unsound doctrines, their worldview primary and uppermost. Which, ironically, is a part of the fulfillment of every word of Bible prophecy, as we’re told this would happen.

Time to stop hitting the snooze. Stop being so otherwise occupied. Time to check how much oil is in the lamp you carry, awaiting the Bridegroom. Time to check the Pilot Light of your heart, as professed is On, and the flame within your heart is not a flicker, faint, about to flame out. Time to have a heart on fire, ablaze, for the LORD, for God the Father, for listening to and obeying the Holy Spirit, to refine, hone everything heard and seen. To remove the chaff, and to always, always, always keep in mind what the priorities really are, not getting caught up in the whirlwind, the vortex spinning ever wider and faster.

Time to prepare to get caught up in the air, with the LORD. And if not there? Why not? Where are you, where do you desire to be? Let here to attempt to endure The Great Tribulation? Unbelieving, beligerant, stubborn, loving the world and darkness more than the truth. Ignoring the Presence of the LORD.

It all began a long time ago and hasn’t ever stopped advancing.

Now, all things are speeding up and being revealed.

There are only two kinds of people on all the earth. The faithful believers and living out of their faith in Jesus as LORD and Savior, and those who refuse to believe, reject, and run, or attempt to run and hide from the fact that Jesus is King of kings, LORD of lords, and He is returning. And every word within the Word is true. And coming true by the day.

Jeremiah 49: Elam Destruction

July 13, 2025

By  Terry James

Reprinted from Terry James Prophecy Line

Elam is within Iran.

Mike Huckabee, U.S. ambassador to Israel, has perhaps framed my thinking in this commentary.

He says that U.S. B-2 bombers “need to visit Yemen” after a Houthi missile was intercepted.

“We thought we were done with missiles coming to Israel, but Houthis just lit one up over us in Israel,” the ambassador noted after the first missile attack since the Iran war. “The law of Yemen is the law of Tehran,” he wrote. “After we strike the head of the serpent in Tehran, we will also strike the tail of the serpent in Yemen” (Rapture Ready News, July 2, 2025).

Huckabee’s words validate that the 12-Day War between Israel and Iran, as it has been termed, isn’t over. This is no surprise to any Bible student who is familiar with God’s prophetic Word. The war with Israel’s surrounding enemies has been waged for thousands of years, and we know from Bible prophecy that the conflict hasn’t come to an end with the B-2 bombers dropping multiple bunker-buster bombs down the center of the mountain hiding the Iranian Fordow nuclear facility.

The leak to CNN and others from within the Department of Defense claiming that the huge ordnance sent into that facility three hundred feet beneath the mountain didn’t finish off the Iranian nuclear program, whether true or not, has created a strong sense that there’s more to be done to end the Iranian regime’s nuclear-weapons ambitions.

The leakers inside the DOD, who are being pursued by Defense Secretary Pete Hegset and by the Trump administration, are thought to be of the deep-state variety. These, it is charged, want never-ending war, particularly in the Middle East, to feed the greed of the so-called military-industrial complex. (That, plus the desire to bring down the presidency of Donald J. Trump.)

Some who study Bible prophecy from the Pre-Tribulation Rapture perspective have suggested that this strike to rid Iran of its nuclear program was the fulfillment of the following Jeremiah 49 prophecy:

The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might. And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come. For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them even my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them: And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD. But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the LORD. (Jeremiah 49:34–39)

The prophecy certainly seems to fit, in some respects, with what the Israel’s IDF and America’s B-2 attacks wrought in Iran.

My good friend Bill Salus, whom I believe has a Holy Spirit-directed focus on the evil in the Middle East against God’s chosen nation, Israel, wrote several years ago with uncanny accuracy about the Jeremiah 49 prophecy.

In this prophecy Jeremiah declares that a time would arrive when the Lord would be furious with the leadership of Iran. We know this because Jeremiah 49:38 says that the kings and the princes will be destroyed. This most likely represents the Iranian government in place when the prophecy occurs. The Lord would never destroy good kings and princes, so we can safely presume that bad Iranian leadership is the problem.

An example of good Iranian leadership was King Cyrus the Great of Persia who lived between 600-529 BC. Isaiah 44-45 predicted his arrival on the world scene a century before Cyrus was even born. Isaiah called Cyrus by name and confirmed that he was anointed by the Lord. If Iran’s current supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, was a good leader like Cyrus, then Jeremiah 49:34-39 would not be a NOW prophecy. The Lord would be pleased with the Ayatollah, rather than furious with him.

But why is the Lord fiercely angry with the government of Iran at the time of the prophecy? The reason is because Iran wants to launch something powerful somewhere. This is why the Lord will break the bow at the foremost of Iran’s might in order to prevent such a lethal launch.

But where does Iran want to launch something powerful? (The Now Prophecies by Bill Salus, Prophecy Depot Publishing, 2016)

Despite the Israeli Defense Force reportedly taking out almost all the Iranian regime’s leadership, and most of the nuclear scientists involved with the weapons program, and American bombers “totally obliterating” the Fordow facility, according to President Trump and Secretary Hegset, there is growing evidence that Iran is back at it. That is, enough of Iran’s nuclear program survived to begin anew the development of nuclear bombs, some sources say.

Satellite and other surveillance observed several eighteen-wheeler-type trucks moving from the Fordow facility just before the attack by the B-2 bombers. This indicates, to those who are concerned, that the ninety-something canisters of enriched uranium were removed to another location or locations. That nuclear material, the sources say, was almost at the point of being usable to construct the nuclear weapons the regime is determined to affix onto the nose of their ballistic missiles.

Whatever the case, it’s obvious that the total destruction indicated in the Jeremiah 49 prophecy against Elam hasn’t yet been fulfilled. The inhabitants haven’t been totally displaced from the area. The nuclear fallout that many of us think is part of this prophecy that will scatter the inhabitants of Elam far and wide hasn’t occurred. Not yet.

My thinking, as I wrote above, as framed by Ambassador Mike Huckabee’s words on the need perhaps for the B-2s to again be used, is that Iran will again be struck in powerful attacks. With the brilliance of Israeli intelligence and the sophisticated technologies to detect movement of assets, one must presume that if the canisters of enriched uranium or whatever was transported to safety, Israel—and America—know with precision where they now are.

I very strongly suspect that at the appropriate time, if these nuclear materials exist, they will be hit. Could this be when the full extent of this prophecy about Elam’s destruction reaches the beginning of its fulfillment?
