Flying Together 8-South Sudan

SOUTH SUDAN - THE LAND OF RUSTLING OF WINGS AND PEOPLE TALL AND SMOOTH
M.M.NINAN
and to the beasts of the earth:
and the ravenous birds shall summer upon them,
and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
In that time shall a present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people tall and smooth,
and from a people terrible from their beginning onward;
a nation that meteth out and treadeth down,
whose land the rivers divide,
to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
I have been asked to explain these passages over and over again by the Christians in south Sudan in
the Pentecostal Churches. It rings in my ears even now as it was repeated almost every day. They
believed that the events in their life time tallied with the prophecy exactly.
There is no doubt the prophecy is about them - the people of Cush,
the land of the rustling of wings=The land of the Tsetse-fly or is it refering to the war planes?
beyond the rivers of Ethiopia -Blue Nile
the land divided by Nile,
a people tall and of smooth skin (a people who do not naturally grow facial and body hair)
A nation that meteth out and treadeth down = the nation that is not free being ruled by some other
people
These people will go through times of war and struggle, but the prophetic end is clear, they will be free
and they will bring their gifts to the Lord of hosts.
