Our “End-Times” Plan #10: The Coming Peace in Israel…Just as Promised in the New Testament

Posted June 29, 2025 | End Times Watch | By River Wilde

In recent days, we’ve seen headlines that suggest a remarkable shift in the Middle East: peace. Talks of normalization, cooperation, shared economic interests—even agreements between former enemies—are surfacing with increasing frequency. And while these developments are being hailed as diplomatic victories, there’s something far deeper and more prophetic at work here.

The Peace That Almost Feels Scripted

Whether it’s the Abraham Accords, newly formed alliances, or emerging plans for religious coexistence in Jerusalem, peace is gaining ground in a place historically marked by conflict. But to those who study the Bible, especially the prophetic books and the words of Jesus Himself, this moment is not surprising. It was foretold.

Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJV):

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

This verse rings louder today than ever before. We are not just seeing political progress—we are watching prophecy unfold in real-time.

A Peace Not Rooted in Christ

Let’s be clear: not all peace is godly peace. The Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ, offers a peace that transcends politics and reaches the soul. But the peace currently forming in the Middle East is a different kind—an earthly, fragile kind, born from mutual interests and global pressure. It sets the stage for something larger. According to Daniel and Revelation, a false peace precedes the rise of the Antichrist and the beginning of the Tribulation.

Daniel 9:27 (KJV) speaks of a covenant being confirmed:

“And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week…”
This is often interpreted as a 7-year peace agreement, possibly marking the start of the final prophetic timeline.

Why This Matters Now

Whether or not today’s peacemakers realize it, their negotiations may be part of a divine timeline. God is not caught off guard. He warned us that a temporary peace would come—not as the end of trouble, but as a setup for what’s to follow.

To the world, it may look like progress. To the watchful believer, it’s the quiet before the storm. The nations may be crying out for peace, but we must remember that true and lasting peace only comes through Jesus Christ, not through treaties or accords.

Stay Awake, Stay Ready

This isn’t a time to celebrate human achievement in diplomacy. It’s a time to pray, prepare, and preach. The peace we’re witnessing may very well be the beginning of the countdown to the Tribulation.

But we are not called to fear. Jesus said in John 14:27 (KJV):

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

So yes, peace may be coming to Israel. But it’s a prophetic peace. A temporary one. A deceptive one. And it signals that our redemption is drawing near.

The prophet Daniel gave us this sobering insight about a coming agreement that will mark the final week—the last seven years—before Christ’s return:

This verse, Daniel:27, is a linchpin in end-time prophecy. A confirmed covenant—likely involving Israel and many nations—will appear to bring peace. But halfway through, it will be broken, ushering in the Great Tribulation and revealing the man of sin.

Let us not be lulled by headlines of peace, but rather stirred to readiness. Because when they say “peace and safety”—that’s when we look up.
