Israel’s three wars against Sihon, Og, and Jericho

Joshua 2: 10: For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.

After the episode at Kadeshbarnea (Numbers 13), Israel wandered forty years in the wilderness, till the unbelieving generation died off and a new generation rose up (Numbers 14: 26 – 35). This new generation fought three major wars as they came into the Promised Land. The first war was against Sihon of the Amorites (Numbers 21: 21 – 24), the second war was against Og of Bashan (Numbers 21: 33 – 35), and the third war was against Jericho (Joshua 6). Between Israel’s second war against Og, and its third war against Jericho, Christ came down as the Captain of the Host and made a special visitation to Joshua (Joshua 5: 13 – 15).

These three major wars that Israel fought long ago represent World War One, World War Two, and World War Three (Revelation 8: 13). Between the second world war (under the sixth trumpet in Revelation 9) and the third world war (Armageddon under the seventh trumpet in Revelation 11), the Captain of the Host, King Theophany Jesus came down (in Revelation 10), and made special visitation to the prophet, giving him a message for the Bride, a message that will Rapture Her into Glory before Armageddon rolls in.
