Sudan's Fall and the Rise of Ezekiel 38

May 21, 2025

As Sudan descends further into lawlessness, it is undergoing a dramatic transformation—from a nation once courting peace through the Abraham Accords to a rapidly radicalizing Islamist stronghold, backed by Iran and driven by anti-Israel zeal. Its strategic location along the Red Sea and growing alliance with jihadist entities are reshaping it into a hub of extremism. With the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) increasingly echoing the ideologies and methods of groups like Hamas, intelligence reports now indicate a troubling rise in Iranian drone shipments, weapons trafficking, and indoctrination efforts. What appears to be a geopolitical crisis is, in reality, a prophetic signpost coming into sharper focus.


For students of Bible prophecy, these developments align closely with Ezekiel 38, which foretells a confederation of nations—including Persia (Iran), Put (Libya), and Cush (Sudan)—that will unite in a future assault on Israel. Sudan’s ideological pivot and military cooperation with Iran suggest it is sliding into alignment with this prophesied coalition. The Red Sea, once merely a vital trade route, is now a front in the emerging threat, with Port Sudan evolving into a base for Iran-backed aggression. While skeptics question the unification of these diverse nations against Israel, Scripture makes it clear: their motives are not merely political, but spiritual. United in their opposition to God’s covenant people, they are being drawn together by divine orchestration. The stage is being set, not just for war—but for God's ultimate display of sovereignty and deliverance.


Stay Awake. Keep Watch.
