Location
1. Tel Megiddo is located about 15 miles (26 Km.) east of the Mediterranean Ocean and about 25 miles (40 Km.) southwest of the Sea of Galilee.
2. Megiddo lied at the juncture of several key routes (the main route being called the Via Maris) which linked Africa to Asia and Europe. For this reason, any country who rose to world power had to control Megiddo due to its strategic location.
3. More battles have been fought in this location than any other place in the entire world.
4. The name, Armageddon is derived from “Har-Megiddo” which is translated, “Armageddon.” Har means hill, and Megeddon is the place. When these words are joined together it is Armageddon.
5. Today, this place is called Megiddo in English. It’s located in the most fertile valley in Israel called, The Jezreel Valley.”
6. It is a "Tel" which is made up of layer upon layer of different civilizations that make up an artificial hill.
7. Tel Megiddo is made up of 25-26 layers of civilizations.
8. Today, you can see a busy highway right beside Tel Megiddo that uses the same ancient travel route that has been used for 6,000 years.
9. One of the Pharaohs, Thutmose the III, said conquering Megiddo was like conquering a thousand cities.

I am being blessed to be able to go and see Holy Land in Feb 2019!! My God, your God is such amazing, forgiving, loving, mercifully merciful!! Thank you my heavenly father!! In Jesus name! Amen
please pray for my kid Daniel for God to keep his eyes and skin healthy
Lovely seeing the biblically, historic sites. Those of us who believe upon Yahweh and His Son Yeshua,(God & Jesus’ original Hebrew names) with the indwelling of the set-apart (holy) Spirit, are all Israelites!!! We have been grafted into the original vine = Israel/His chosen people. Yah does not make a distinction between Jew or Gentile. Ahmein
Thank you Pastor. I really enjoyed that. Praise God for all His mercies!
My heart is broken for the lost. The fields are white, the hour is late, but the labors are few. The world is lost in hate and sin, what can I do? I can tell the world of Christ, and His love so true! The fields are white, the hour is late, what will you do?
I will surely be in the CHRIST's army. Amen. Thank you pastor
I'm here just 12 hours after Israel was attacked by Gaza 😔
spoiler alert...,*"GOD WINS!!!*🌷🤔😏🤗🌻
I am so thankful that I found this channel!! The last few minutes were really hard for me to get through. I know people reject and deny God, but my heart still breaks for those who will be lost. We might be rejoicing while they are suffering and that thought is really hard for me to deal with. We need to be lights in this world, to reach those who are lost. And we can all pray for them. We don’t need to know their names, God already does.
Thank you brother for this film. It is terrifying but I can only hope and pray that more and more come to saving faith in Christ, before his day comes. I keep casti g seeds for my family and friends for time is short, but they are as stubborn as I used to be. All I can do is pray their eyes are opened.
I thank the Lord our God for pastor Mike for sharing the words of our Lord, brothers and sister seek out God with all your hearts for he loves us so much, and share the gospel with others so they also may be saved, thank you pastor Mike and all my fellow Christians, may the Lord bless us and keep us. AMEN
