The Nuclear Option!
A Prophetic Call to Discern the Times, Awaken the Church, and Engage in Spiritual Battle.
While sitting in a parking lot, sipping my coffee, a word from the Lord suddenly dropped into my spirit. I quickly grabbed a pen and began to write. He revealed that Satan’s plan is to use Iran and the 'Nuclear Option' as his Final Solution. His determination is that this will accomplish the final destruction of Israel and the Jewish people. Understanding of the rising threat of Iran and this nation’s place in the ancient, spiritual conflict centered on Israel is crucial. We live in a season of rapidly unfolding global events, where the lines between politics, prophecy, and spiritual warfare have become blurred.
We are at a critical juncture in history now unfolding before our eyes. There is a Storm on the Horizon, and at its heart lies Iran, a nation emerging as the central player in what can only be described as a prophetically charged confrontation with Israel. Iran is emerging as Satan’s most lethal instrument in what may be his final and most desperate attempt to destroy God’s covenant people. Something deeper than mere politics is unfolding on the world stage. What we are witnessing in the world is not random chaos, but the acceleration toward Satan’s final strategy, "The Nuclear Option."
An Ancient Hatred
At the root of Satan’s rage is a hatred for God and His Son Jesus. Iran’s aggression, global hostility toward Israel, and the turmoil surrounding the Middle East are not merely geopolitical developments—they are spiritual manifestations of this ancient hatred—a spiritual war that has raged for thousands of years and is now entering its most volatile phase!
From Pharaoh in Egypt to Haman in Persia, and from Hitler in Germany to the leaders now in Iran, Satan has consistently raised up enemies in his quest to destroy God’s people. He has failed every time! Now, through Iran, he is working on another attempt. Iran’s nuclear ambition has never been about defense or deterrence. Iran and the United States are presently negotiating over a deal that would end their nuclear objectives. However, they have never and will never keep any agreement. They have never and will never halt in their advance to annihilate Israel. This is Satan’s fierce determination and his only chance of survival. Anything other than the destruction of Israel is secondary, as the return of Jesus to Jerusalem signifies his end.
Despite the global outcry over the plight of the Palestinians, the truth is that Iran is not concerned about the Palestinian people. Neither are the Arab nations nor the global protestors who claim to support their cause. Even the international community, for all its rhetoric, is not genuinely concerned. The conflict is sourced in the spiritual realms, and their tactics are diversionary, used by Satan to isolate Israel and weaken international resolve. The Palestinian cause is being weaponized—not for justice, but as a strategic ploy to isolate, vilify, and ultimately give cause to attack Israel. It is a spiritual dynamic at work from ancient times to attack Israel’s very right of existence.
The term "Nuclear Option" can also refer to the most extreme course of action. It represents Satan’s most desperate acts, which include the attack on Israel on October 7th. Iran is now moving relentlessly toward nuclear capability. The goal is the annihilation of Israel. The regime in Iran has stated this openly and repeatedly. Their intent is not hidden—it is prophetic, fueled by the demonic commitment of annihilation.
Hatred toward the Jewish people is a worldwide phenomenon. What lies at its root? The answer is the Messiah, Jesus Christ—the Lamb of God, who defeated Satan and came to destroy his works. Satan’s rage has not abated. If he could not stop the Messiah, he intends to destroy all connected to His promise of eternal life with Him. This war is ultimately about Jesus, who came not to condemn, but to redeem. He bore the wrath of God to redeem Israel and all who would believe in Him. Satan’s aim has always been to stop this redemptive plan. He failed in the past. He will fail again!
Israel Surrounded: A Supernatural Phenomenon
Today, Israel is surrounded by enemies on all sides: Hostile Arab nations. Increasing anti-Semitic sentiment across Europe and the West. Continual condemnation from the United Nations. Fraudulent legal attacks from the ICC. However, this coalition of hatred is spiritual, the fulfillment of ancient prophecies and the manifestation of the serpent's enmity with the Seed of the woman. This ancient conflict goes beyond borders, politics, or ideology. It stems from a conflict that originated in the Garden of Eden.
“And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel." Genesis 3:15
What began in the Garden is now reaching its climax. When God declared war between the seed of the serpent and the Seed of the woman, that is Christ, He foretold a war that would span human history. This is that war! It is a war campaign that began in Genesis and culminates in Revelation 12, where the dragon seeks to devour the Man Child born of the woman. The Man Child is a full-grown son, not a baby. It is an entity that represents a corporate army of mature apostolic saints, brought forth in union with Christ. The Man Child represents God’s endgame: the Seed that is Christ has produced seed after its kind! They are firstborn sons of the Firstborn! They manifest the truth and reality of being seated in Christ in the Heavenly realms in a place of rulership over the nations. The birthing of this Vessel is also greatly contested and takes place during a time of great warfare in the Climax of the Ages. (See previous article on the Man Child).
“…and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.” Revelation 12:5
The Time of Jacob’s Trouble & the Climax of the Ages?
The Scriptures speak of a time referred to as "The time of Jacob’s Trouble"—a moment of great trial for Israel, when the threat of annihilation has reached its peak. Nevertheless, even in the darkest hour, God has always preserved Israel. From the pogroms of the 1800s to the Holocaust, each failed plot only accelerated God’s plan. The rebirth of Israel in 1948 was not just a political event—it was the prophetic fulfillment of God’s Word.
This unfolding crisis is not just about Israel—it is also a test for the Church. We must awaken to the reality that we are in a time of war—not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). The Church’s Response must now be to awake and advance! We must understand the urgency of the hour, as Satan knows his time is short. Now, as he accelerates his campaign and Iran works ferociously, threatening the nuclear option, the Church must recognize that we are entering the final phase of history and the ending of the Great War. Every congregation must now become a base camp for the Kingdom of God’s strategic advance, where warriors are trained, equipped, and deployed.
Believers need to understand that we are living behind enemy lines. We are Daniels living in Babylon, positioned by God to represent His kingdom within enemy territory. Daniel was positioned in Babylon not just to survive, but to represent God's rule. The Kingdom of God dwells within, but we advance in contested territory. Believers are not here to observe. We are soldiers in a spiritual war that spans Heaven and Earth.
Iran is on the brink of nuclear capability, threatening both Israel and the West. The Prince of Persia is rising again, but Heaven is responding. Michael the Archangel and the armies of Heaven are mobilized. The saints are being called to the front lines. As God raised up Rees Howells and a company of intercessors during World War II, so He is raising up a company today, refined in fire, who walk in His authority, power, and glory.
The people of God must now pray with power, intercede with intensity, and engage in strategic spiritual warfare directed by the Holy Spirit. The world is moving toward a nuclear incident as ancient hatred erupts through many nations, such as Pakistan and India, North and South Korea, and Russia and the Western World. But God will always protect Israel—the future Seat of His Throne! Zechariah 14 is a prophetic warning to nations:
“And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths. It shall come to pass in that day that a great panic from the LORD will be among them. Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor, and raise his hand against his neighbor's hand; Judah also will fight at Jerusalem… Such also shall be the plague on the horse and the mule, on the camel and the donkey, and on all the cattle that will be in those camps. So shall this plague be. And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.” Zechariah 14:12
The prophet Zechariah foresaw this day when nations would gather against Jerusalem, and a plague would strike, resembling the effects of nuclear warfare. Iran's current trajectory should serve as a wake-up call to intercessors. As the world is distracted by politics, pandemics, and progressivism, Satan is focused! He knows his time is short, and so should we. This is not a time for retreat. This is a time for high alert. The climax of the ages is on the horizon. Now is the time to rise. Now is the time to war. Now is the time to see God’s Kingdom come and His will be done on Earth as in Heaven.
The days of passive Christianity are over. The Church was never intended to be a social club or a retreat center. It is a spiritual army! The Church is a place for Glory, not gimmicks. It is a house of worship, not entertainment. It is a center for Heaven’s government and administrations, not human agendas. It is established for warfare, worship, and witness!
God’s Blueprint Must Be Restored
The Church is now becoming spiritually aligned with Heaven’s strategy and being returned to its original Blueprint. God’s House will be restored to the Pattern He designed, so His authority, Glory, and power can be released to empower the saints for the challenges ahead. The mission is to build Him His Holy Habitation, advance the Kingdom of God, and work to see His Throne established on Earth.
The people of God must stand unwavering with Israel. Christ will reign from Jerusalem over all nations. He is now bringing forth a people conformed to His image—a mature, militant Man Child and Bride, ready to rule and war alongside Him. We were born for this hour. This is not a time to fear—it is a time to fight. The call to action is to pray for the peace of Jerusalem; take our place on the wall as watchmen and intercede against the plans of darkness; equip our churches in spiritual warfare; take your place on the front lines and align with Heaven’s agenda. The Church must awaken, rise, and shine!
Satan’s final strategy—the nuclear option—hangs heavy in the spirit, but God's promises remain unshaken. Israel will not be destroyed. The Church will not be silenced. And Jesus will return to reign. Now is the time for the ancient prophecy to be fulfilled:
“The kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever” Revelation 11:15
