the first prophecy about the end…

The Sahara desert is one of the driest and most hostile places on the planet. However, recently it was the scene of an extraordinary event: rivers and lakes appeared after heavy rains.

This phenomenon fulfilled ancient biblical prophecies and sparked interest in its cultural and religious connection.

Why is there water in the Sahara desert?

Recently, due to storms in the Sahara desert, rainfall exceeded the annual average and fell more than 100 mm, when usually 250 mm is expected in a whole year.

This caused major flooding in several towns such as Tata and Tagounite. However, this is not the first time this phenomenon has happened. Research by NASA and the US Geological Survey has revealed the existence of lakes buried beneath the Saharan sand.

The discovery was made using radar images taken from space. With their help, scientists have visualized a hidden landscape that they believe existed thousands of years ago.

What does the Bible say about the river in the Sahara desert?

The water temporarily transformed the landscape of the Sahara and many people linked this event to the ancient prophecy in the book of Isaiah in the Bible.

The text talks about the transformation of the desert with the coming of water. “I will cause rivers to flow on the desolate hills and fountains in the midst of the valleys,” says Isaiah 41:18-20.

According to the Bible: what does the Sahara river mean?

His book Isaiah mentions several times the coming of rivers and waters in the desert as a symbol of renewal and blessing. Isaiah 44:3-4 says, “I will make water flow in the desert, springs in the dry land.”

For scripture-believing people, this phenomenon is seen as a fulfillment of these ancient predictions and indicates divine intervention. However, other believers associate such prophetic fulfillments with the end of the world, linking them to other parts of the holy book.

This event was also seen by many people as a sign of hope related to the climate crisis in the arid regions.
