In
approximately 596BC Jeremiah (49:34-39) wrote a prophecy concerning the
destruction of Elam in the “latter days”. Elam is a region in Iran that is isolated
by the Zagros mountains and the Bushehr nuclear facility is located in Elam.
Interestingly, Ezekiel’s 38 prophecies are written about Persia, not Elam. Essentially, Elam
is a region of Persia or modern day Iran.
Below
are the nine prophecies concerning Elam from Jeremiah 49:34-39.
1. God
will break the bow (missiles are like arrows in a bow) of Elam, the mainstay of
their might.
2. God
will bring the 4 winds from the 4 quarters of heaven against Elam.
3. Elam’s
population will be scattered to the four winds (worldwide).
4. God will shatter Elam before their enemies and
before those who seek their lives.
5. God’s
fierce anger will bring disaster upon the people in Elam.
6. God will pursue them with His sword until they
are consumed.
7. God
will set His throne in Elam v38 (a seat of authority perhaps one of Yeshua’s
palaces).
8. God
will destroy Elam’s king and her princes.
9. God
will restore the fortunes of Elam in the future.
Elam was the grandson of
Noah and the Elamites were war like and expert archers.
It is important to note
that the region where Bushehr is located in Elam is active earthquake country and it sits on a tectonic plate.
That 2/3 of the world’s
desalinization plants are in Persian Gulf, hence an earthquake would severely affect
the region’s water. Finally, large numbers of Iranians are coming to Yeshua. There
has been a 19% growth rate in Christianity in Iran. Is this the Lord’s last
great harvest in Iran?

It seems to me that reading Jeremiah's prophecy that some sort of nuclear catastrophe awaits Elam.
Remember what God says about His chosen people the Jews: "I will bless them that bless my people and curse them that curse my people."
