Global SITREP D2-17: One Word - One Prophecy

The Holy Bible
25 August 2017: The the past week a lot of prompting by the Holy Spirit has led to a kind of reassessment on how the ongoing pre-70th Week prophetic fulfillment may actually, or is actually going to come to pass. For example, it has been strongly impressed upon yours truly that there is no need to dissect the prophetic verses of 49th chapter of Jeremiah as has been done for quite some time now.  

Given the real-world events in Syria, and the ever present rumors of a wider war involving Iran, why should the dissection Jeremiah 49's prophetic passages occur at all? That is, why assign verses 23 through 27 (subtitled as "Judgment on Damascus" in the NKJV) as separate and distinct  from verses 34 through 39 (Judgment on Elam)? 

For that matter, why dissect Jeremiah 49's verses 1 through 6 (Judgment on Ammon) and verses 7 through 22 (Judgment on Edom) and verses 28 through 33 (Judgment on Kedar and Hazor) from the two more well known prophecies concerning Syria and Iran in this same prophetic chapter? Long story short, it shouldn't be done, so I'll certainly not do it any longer. It is one literal Word of prophecy, always has been, and that's how it will come to pass - as it is written.

More importantly, there is very real and definitive linkage here between these pre-70th Week prophecies and several others, such as Psalm 83 as a prime example, which should never be dissected or treated a separate from one another. They are all parts of the bigger prophetic picture; the whole flood of prophetic events leading up to the 70th Week.

In the past much attention has been given to the fact that neither Syria or Iran are present in Psalm 83; that the fate of Damascus and Syria (Isaiah 17 and Jeremiah 23-27) must occur prior to Psalm 83. Or that Iran is not mentioned in Psalm 83, but its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah is strongly implied as a participant in Psalm 83. The bigger picture is that all of these prophecies are concurrent in fulfillment, in a sequence for sure, yet concurrent in a way that dissecting them from one another is an incorrect way in which to interpret them as a whole.

In sum, we can no longer dissect these prophecies from one another any more than Psalm 83 can be dissected from Ezekiel 28:24-26 and Isaiah 11:12-14. They are all parts of the same prophecy.
