They are attacking buffalo and cattle as well as people.\u2019&#8221; <sup>(2)<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>In May of 2014, Turkey completely shut off the flow of the Euphrates River to Syria. They did this in an effort to support the rebels in the Syrian civil war. The Syrian civil war started in 2011. When Turkey shut off the flow of the Euphrates River, this just about dried up the Euphrates River in Syria and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>It appears that Turkey hopes to turn the people of Syria against Syrian President Bashar Assad. Also, ISIS, who has taken over much of Syria, is considered to be a threat by the government of Turkey. It appears that both the present government of Syria and ISIS are terrorists in their actions against the innocent. Women are raped, people beheaded, and robbery is rampant throughout Syria by these thugs. The government of Turkey appears to believe that these two enemies can be stopped by thirst. But, sad to say, many innocent people will suffer from lack of water.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe crisis revolves around the Euphrates River, which quickly became the Euphrates Creek when Turkey completely cut off the water flow upstream of Syria, reported\u00a0Al Akhbar\u00a0on May 30.\u201d <sup>(3)<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWater levels in Lake Assad, Syria\u2019s largest body of water, have dropped by 20 feet since Turkey shut off the water supply.\u201d\u00a0<sup>(4)<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The Euphrates River is being used as a weapon against the enemies of Turkey. Syria\u2019s civil war has led to many nations in the Middle East taking sides. Iran is supporting Turkey\u2019s enemy, President Bashar Assad of Syria. Turkey could very well try to dry up the Euphrates River with plans to send soldiers across it to attack their enemies. These countries in the Middle East could very well be setting the scene for a major war. But, right now the war actions at the Euphrates River mostly involve Muslim dominated countries.<\/p>\n<p>Fulfillment of prophecy does not depend on men to make sure that it happens. God gave the prophecy about the Euphrates River drying up. God can dry up the river instantly, if He chooses. God is able to perform miracles. Since God knows the future, to the smallest detail, the prophecy of the Scriptures will be fulfilled exactly. If it is not fulfilled exactly, God would be a liar. But, we know that God is Truth.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h5><strong>2 Peter 1:21<\/strong> \u201cFor the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.\u201d<\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In part 2, about the Euphrates, I will show why the present day drying up of the Euphrates River is not a fulfillment of the prophecy in Revelation 16:12.
