As the situation in Iran took a dramatic turn this past weekend, the following story illustrates how Arab Christians have been praying for their brothers and sisters in Iran, and we wanted to share it with you: (From HOPE Nazareth Team) – During the Dubai Encounter Conference in MARCH, 2025, a powerful prophetic vision came during a time of prayer involving Israel, the United States, and Iran. We have abbreviated this story for the sake of length in our blog post: “In the vision I saw the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Jesus, roaring from Zion. At the sound of His roar, a flock of eagles took flight from the land of Israel, another from the United States, and the two formed one mighty flock heading directly towards Iran.
“Each eagle in the united flock was carrying a plumb line. As the giant flock entered Iranian airspace, they began to soar across the land, reaching all four corners of the nation. As they soared, they dropped the plumb lines one by one across the nation. When each plumb line struck the ground, it exploded like a light bomb. These divine explosions sent shockwaves through the land, not just on the surface, but deep into the spiritual atmosphere. The vision made it clear: this was a move of God’s glory, dispersing darkness and releasing the light of Jesus on the nation of Iran. The plumb lines represent God’s standard, bringing both correction and divine order. As the plumblines fell and exploded, shockwaves spread across the land, exposing the hidden evil plans of the enemy and shaking the very infrastructure of darkness. These divine explosions triggered intense kingdom clashes in the spirit realm, where the Kingdom of God and His light are advancing, displacing darkness, and possessing the land for the King of Glory!
“As the light bombs exploded, the darkness was driven out, making way for a wave of revival and revelation of Jesus as the Light of the world.
“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them a light has shined. For you have broken the yoke of his burden and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.” – Isaiah 9:2,4
