All eyes in the world are on Iran and the Middle East. But what we can see on the surface is only part of the story. Behind what we see, the Bible tells us there is a spiritual war raging, with Iran at the center of the enemy’s strategy to oppose Israel and create chaos in that region. The Book of Daniel tells us about a high-ranking demon called the Prince of Persia, who was in charge of influencing Persia and its leaders 2,500 years ago. If there was a demonic Prince of Persia in 530 BC, we can be sure the same territorial demon is behind what is happening in Iran today. He is stimulating their strategy and stubbornness, inspiring their ideology, agitating their antisemitism, and activating their anger. Hormoz Shariat, the Billy Graham of Iran, calls the Prince of Persia “a spirit of delay.” And that is exactly what we see from Iran today: delay, deception, and destruction.

In the second half, we answer viewer questions: How can Revelation 20:4–5 be the “first resurrection” if the dead in Christ rise at the Rapture? Are the Seven Lamps in Revelation 4–5 the same as the Seven Lampstands in Revelation 2–3? And what is the latest update on Babylon being rebuilt in Iraq?

The Persian Storm: Bible Prophecy and Iran’s Last Threat to Israel

In The Persian Storm, biblical prophecy expert Dr. Mark Hitchcock shows you exactly why Iran will continue to be dangerous, tracing the striking link between today’s volatility and ancient Scripture. With a Scripture-first approach—without hype or sensationalism—Hitchcock helps you explore the prophecies involving Persia (modern-day Iran) and its long, defiant posture toward Israel, giving you a grounded way to understand what matters and why. You’ll learn how to:

* Understand key Bible prophecies with greater clarity and confidence, and the role of the United States and Israel

* Evaluate current events through a steady biblical lens (without chasing headlines)

* Live with greater peace and readiness instead of fear and confusion

* Stay spiritually alert as you anticipate the return of Jesus

As you explore the biblical books of Jeremiah and Ezekiel, where the Bible records many predictions about the region known as Mesopotamia or Persia, you’ll dig deeper into ancient prophecies that will shed light on important questions for the present day, like:

* Do these interpretations still hold true today?

* What about a possible invasion of Israel?

* Does Iran still plan to wipe Israel off the map?

* And what about the role of the United States in Bible prophecy?

The Persian Storm is a sober, hope-filled guide to help you discern prophetic truth and face the future with confidence—because prophecy is meant to prepare you, not scare you.

Will you sponsor books for America’s leaders?

Tipping Point Ministries is undertaking a strategic effort to place a signed copy of Haman’s Lies: Exposing the Ancient Roots of Antisemitism and Why the Spirit of Esther Must Arise by Jimmy Evans and John Andersen, directly into the hands of those entrusted with America’s leadership — every U.S. Representative, every U.S. Senator, the President, the Vice President, members of the Cabinet, all 50 Governors, key national influencers in media and business, and 1,000 pastors and church leaders across the country.

This book documents, chapter by chapter, the twenty-five most-common lies being used today to turn the world against Israel. It traces the ancient template Haman used in Persia and shows exactly how it is being deployed today — in the media, on college campuses, in the halls of the United Nations, and in the minds of people who mean well but have been deceived.

$15 — puts Haman’s Lies in the hands of one national leader

$150 — reaches ten leaders

$750 — reaches an entire state delegation

$1,500 or more — equips 100+ leaders with truth
