al-Sisi’s Days Ruling Egypt Are Likely Numbered

“ As Egypt Implements Massive Devaluation Of Currency, Sending Pound Tumbling,

Unrest & Instability On Horizon March 6, 2024

“ The Egyptian pound crashed Wednesday as the government initiated a devaluation of more than 38%, while also hiking interest rates…

“ Already with one of the world’s highest levels of foreign debt, Egypt is trying to avoid potential default…

“ Economic conditions have only steadily worsened by the increasing strain of over five months of war in neighboring Gaza, amid an ever-present risk that all of this together could fuel popular unrest and destabilization…

“ So a big question will remain whether the inflation surge will lead to a spike in local instability at a very delicate geopolitical moment. The Sisi government and military deep state has long been propped up by Washington, in order to ensure the Camp David Accords and historic peace with Israel; however, the opposition and outlawed Muslim Brotherhood and its ultra-conservative Islam still holds sway over huge swathes of the population.

“ Simmering anger on the Egyptian street over Israel’s military actions in Gaza, and soaring civilian death toll, could when combined with the inflationary surge unleashed by these major reform steps could boil over into anti-government unrest. [Boldface is in original text.] ”

“ Egypt’s Suez Canal Revenue Plummets February 21, 2024

“ Egypt’s Suez Canal revenue has plunged to nearly half of what it was last year, said Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi during a conference with oil companies on Monday.

• In January 2023, the strategic waterway passed 2,155 vessels with a generated $804 million.

• Compare that to January 2024 when 1,362 vessels passed through, yielding $428 million. …

“ Attacks: The decrease in revenue is caused by the continued attacks by Yemen’s Houthi rebel group in the Red Sea. …

“ Although the whole world has been negatively affected by the Red Sea disruption, Egypt is at the greatest disadvantage. The Suez Canal provides the country with its main source of foreign currency in the midst of its severe financial crisis.

“ Other domestic issues: The Suez Canal has been vital in combating Egypt’s foreign currency shortage caused by decreased tourism and increased oil and wheat costs following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Inflation also has been a major issue, hitting a record high of 39.7 percent last August. ”

Egypt, Part 2: Its Coming “Cruel Master”

Isaiah 19:2 “And I will set Egyptians against Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom. 3 And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in its midst… 4 And the Egyptians I will give over into the hand of A CRUEL MASTER; and a fierce king shall rule over them,” says the Lord, the LORD of Hosts. 5 “And the waters of the sea [or, estuary] will become dried up, and the river will be parched and dry…” (See Part 1 for the rest of this passage.)

Daniel 11:40 And at the time of the end…the King of the North… 42 …shall stretch out his hand against other lands: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 But he shall rule over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and Libyans and Ethiopians will be in his march of conquest.

Ezekiel 30:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, 2 “Son of man, prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Howl ‘Woe to the day!’ 3 For a day is approaching, even a day unto the LORD is approaching, a cloudy day: it shall be the time of the Gentiles. [Cf. Luke 21:24.] 4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down. 5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Khub, and the sons of the land of the covenant with them, shall fall with them by the sword.”

6 “‘Thus says the LORD: “They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from Migdol [N. Egypt] to Syene [= Aswan, S Egypt], they shall fall in it by the sword,” says the Lord GOD. 7 “And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted. 8 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.”’”

The fulfillment of these prophesies may be not far off. Consider the following from a recent news article:

Egypt…gets about 85 percent of its wheat from Russia and Ukraine. The Egyptians are now desperately looking for alternative supplies. In early March…in the Cairo area…flatbread loaves increased in price by 50 percent over the course of a week. This is an urgent issue for the Egyptian government, and beyond: The mass protests, deadly confrontations, overthrow of the Mubarak regime and temporary seizure of the country by the radical Muslim Brotherhood all began with a surge in the price of bread. War in Ukraine could lead to another revolution in Egypt, and a revolution in Egypt would affect other nations in the Middle East, and beyond.

“Remember, bread riots are what started the Arab Spring; bread riots are what started the French Revolution,” said Teucrium CEO Sal Gilbertie. “It is a biblical event when you run low on food stocks.” – The Philadelphia Trumpet, May-June 2022, p. 17.

So the coming scenario might well look like this: 1) Food riots lead to instability in Egypt, then it’s current government gets overthrown by Muslim fundamentalists. Civil war – “city against city,” Isaiah 19:2 – causes Egypt to become divided into various warlord-ruled areas, very much like Syria, Lebanon, and Libya are now.

 

2) A European Union and/or NATO leader arises to deal with both the ensuing “push/thrust” at them from a “King of the South” Islamic regime (Dan. 11:40), almost certainly being of Iran (but possibly of Egypt); and increasing violence and instability throughout the whole Middle East.

3) This leader, the King of the North, invades through Syria-Lebanon, north of Israel; then is allowed, by means of a nominal alliance with Israel, to occupy that land (11:41); then cruelly subdues ‘the fanatical terrorists’ throughout northeastern Africa – in Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, and Libya. There he will be as ruthless as Putin has been in Ukraine, arguing that he must do so in order to avenge the “thrust;” and also – and more importantly – in order to secure Middle Eastern oil and gas supplies; and, of course, in order to occupy Jerusalem and its Temple Mount (11:45), both by then certainly having been the site of extreme religious violence.

Returning from his lengthy conquest of Egypt et al., the King of the North

Daniel 11:45 …will plant the tents of his pavilion between the seas at the glorious holy mountain [the Temple Mount]; yet he shall come to his end, and no one will help him. 12:1 At that time…there shall be a time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation… [= the Great Tribulation].

Those who witness the beginning of these events, and who “will understand” (Dan. 12:10) what they are seeing, may stand in assurance that the Parousia of the Lord is not far distant.

The cruel master doesn't wipe out Egypt till after Egypt and the other middle east nations attack and overcome Israel.

Then the king of the north nukes all those nations.

No foot of man or beast will pass through Egypt for ,40 years.

 

Ezekiel 29:11

The foot of neither man nor beast will pass through it; no one will live there for forty years.
 

 

The radiation is going to be bad in Egypt.

Ahhh, THAT is the question, isn't it?

My answer is that it will be a leader from one of the NATO countries, most likely either the US or Germany. Time will tell. But current events in the Middle East are telling me that the "King of the South" will sooner or later go all out and make a significant attack on the West, as I showed in my second post above:

No biblical mention at all for Egypt ever making such an attack in the End Times. Please avoid making such claims without biblical evidence to back them up.

Following up , I would like to ask, what or where is the reference point used to determine North and South ?.  US is to the west if using physical geographical position  and  say using Israel as the center point.  

According to google, Turkey is at the center of the geographical location on earth.

You have to look at the context of all of chapter 11. The king of the north originally ruled from Syria, but for a time held far more territory both east and west of that. So one can't go just by geographical north and south.

What I look at is the posterity of the two kingdoms. The posterity of the northern kingdom was decidedly western: Antiochus Epiphanes grew up in Rome, where he was thoroughly educated.

Gotta go, battery running out. Suggest reading the following series for more info:

I've read of two mentions of Egypt making such an attack at end times.One of which is in zechariah and the other in psalms .

According to the word of God as written by Zechariah ,the Lord sends a plague upon the nations that come against Jerusalem at the time of he end.

This is the plague.

Zechariah 14:12

¹² And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

 

According to the word of God,Egypt recieves this plague which the Lord  brings upon the people who have fought against Jerusalem.

 

Zech 14:18-19

¹⁸ And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

¹⁹ This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

 

The other metion of Egypt taking part in the war of armegeddon. When the Lord fights against the nations that have attacked Israel is in Psalms.83.

 

Psalms 83

 

² See how your enemies growl,
    how your foes rear their heads.
³ With cunning they conspire against your people;
    they plot against those you cherish.
⁴ “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,
    so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”

⁵ With one mind they plot together;
    they form an alliance against you—
⁶ the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
    of Moab and the Hagrites,
⁷ Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,
    Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
⁸ Even Assyria has joined them
    to reinforce Lot’s descendants.^[b]

⁹ Do to them as you did to Midian,
    as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
¹⁰ who perished at Endor
    and became like dung on the ground.
¹¹ Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
    all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
¹² who said, “Let us take possession
    of the pasturelands of God.”

That's why the United states nukes Egypt at the time of the end.They should have known better but you know how Muslims are.

 

Daniel 11:42

He will extend his power over many countries; Egypt will not escape.
 

They are going to burn real quick like.

 

Zechariah 14:12

¹² And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
