I came across this picture of Damascus at dusk and was taken back at how apocalyptic it looks.

It looks like something out of a terminator movie.  So little attention is being given to what is happening in Syria.

Prophecy is being fulfilled or is at least at the precipitous of being fulfilled.

Isaiah 17:1

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Prophecy about Damascus

17 The [a]oracle concerning Damascus.

“Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city
And will become a fallen ruin.

Footnotes:

  1. Isaiah 17:1 Or burden of

Maranatha Lord, come quickly!
