Correct, Psalm 83 lists the 10 nations, now…

Here’s a few more facts you might find interesting!

Amman (Jordan) is situated on hilly area of north-western Jordan. The city was originally built on seven hills, but it now spans over an area of nineteen hills (each known as a Jabal, Tál, Mount or Mountain). The main areas of Amman gain their names from the hills and mountains on whose slopes they lie. The city's elevation changes from mountain to mountain. They range from 740 to 1400 m (2035–3610 feet).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amman,_Jordan

This one’s off the scale!

Find a map of the middle east, print it out then rotate it 90 degrees (so West becomes North) then check out Revelation 9.

Map:

Revelation 9

7 The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. On their heads were crowns of something like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. 8 They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions’ teeth. 9 And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle. 10 They had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men five months. 11 And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but in Greek he has the name Apollyon.

Now catalog the countries:

Horses prepared for battle: Turkey is the rider with upraised arm

Crowns of Gold: Sinai

Faces of men: Jordan

Women’s hair: Lebanon

Lions teeth: Jordan

Breastplates of iron: Iraq

Wings: See ‘no fly zone over Iraq’

Scorpion tails: Somalia and UAE

Another interesting fact, the UAE buys more weapons from U.S. then Israel. Israel is fourth in the M.E. behind Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE then Israel.

And now on to Daniel 7

23 “He gave me this explanation: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it. 24 The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.

He will subdue three kings… Egypt (weapons), Libya (oil), Syria? as always there’s lots more!

Buckle up, cause the ride just gets wilder!
John Lennon

Also, compare the iron and bronze from Daniel 7 19 “Then I wanted to know the meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws.

With Nebuchadnezzar’s dream in Daniel 4 14 He called in a loud voice: ‘Cut down the tree and trim off its branches; strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the animals flee from under it and the birds from its branches. 15 But let the stump and its roots, bound with iron and bronze, remain in the ground, in the grass of the field.

Iron and bronze…which is also what oil wells are constructed of.

Later…

And that the point of prophecy is to make us aware of the judgments of a righteous God in order to persuade us to cling to Christ. Sorry I couldn't give a better answer.

You gave perhaps the best answer on this entire thread, as it cuts to the core of the issue. The true purpose of prophecy is to exhort the Body of Christ to holiness and submission to the Father, knowing that the Father executes judgment in righteousness against those who oppose His will.

As it is written:

Psa 46:10-11 KJV - [10] Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. [11] The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of Jacob [is] our refuge. Selah.

See the map below. You'll notice that the eastern leg of the Roman Empire consisted of the Middle Eastern area of today. The Western Roman Empire collapsed in 476 A.D. which is the portion most of our generation has been taught to focus on regarding the prophecy of the revived roman Empire. However, the Eastern leg of the Roman or Byzantine Empire remained in power a thousand years after the collpase of the western leg, ending in 1453 A.D. with the death of Constantine XI and the capture of Constantinople by the Ottoman Turks, so the capital of the Roman Empire for the last thousand years was Constantinople. Where is Constantinople located? In Turkey. Hope this helps. (Keep your eyes on Turkey and Syria.) - OB1

DING DING DING DING!!! We have a winner folks! Pay close attention to Turkey in general and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in particular. He's shown some very interesting activity in the past few years which make me wonder. There's no doubt in my mind that Islam is the Beast mentioned in the Book of Revelation, but there's still things which I wonder how it will work out, like the little horn that uproots three larger horns. Which three nations are they?

I agree with you.

The Arab nations involved in the Psalm 83 war will be totally defeated and complete non-entities by the time the ten kingdoms rise to their prophetic role.

I don't know about a Scriptural reason for end times. But just as a practical fact. I mean how many opinions are there about precise details? All you can do is give your reasons for what you think. For example who can put a definite name to one given a label like the "man of sin"? As far as 1 Thessalonians 5:4, we know of a day coming and know to be prepared for it. But who can give a precise date to that day, much less even what decade of what century?

Like Avalon Hussar (posting elsewhere on this thread) said, "The true purpose of prophecy is to exhort the Body of Christ to holiness and submission to the Father, knowing that the Father executes judgment in righteousness against those who oppose His will.

As it is written:

Psa 46:10-11 KJV - [10] Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. [11] The LORD of hosts [is] with us; the God of Jacob [is] our refuge. Selah."

Just saw this on BibleProphecyMan:

The Western leg of the Roman Empire has already returned in our generation. It is known as the EU or if you will, the European Union. As such let us look at what the scriptures point out to us about this last days kingdom.

The prophet Daniel points out that this kingdom will not hold together. Let’s look at the EU.

First of all, the European Union is made up of the same nations that used to be in the old Roman Empire. At the current time there are 27 members.

Second, the EU has a group of nations that they now call “The Ten”. This group of ten nations took hold July 1, 2011. Revelation 17: 12-13 tells us ten kings would come from this kingdom. Daniel 7:24-25 shows us ten horns will come this kingdom of which the Antichrist will first subdue 3 kings. These horns are the same as the ten kings in the Revelation.

Third, Daniel 2:41-43 point out the following: “Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” as noted in the above scriptures this kingdom will not hold together. All of these things I listed are the exact same things we see happening in this revived Roman Empire now. Here is the news today concerning the possible break up of the Eurozone nations. The headline to the report is entitled: “Eurozone crisis could rip EU apart: officials”

“The eurozone crisis could wreck the European Union, top EU officials warned on Wednesday as the leaders of Germany and France held talks with Greece to avoid a default and widespread chaos. The pressure rose on all fronts with United States again expressing great concern, with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner saying European states "now recognise they are going to have to do more" to resolve to the crisis. Highlighting the threat to the global economy, Geithner is to exceptionally attend talks between European Union finance ministers and central bankers in Poland on Friday.”

Unless I'm blind, a very real possibility, I don't see where anyone is making the case that the 10 entities mentioned in Psalm 83 are the 10 kingdoms (from a possible revised Roman Empire) that make up the 10 toes in Daniel ch 2. The 10 entities mentioned in Rev 17 receive their power from the man of sin and only have that power long enough (1 hour) to give their allegiance to back to the man of sin.

What I see is "I have a different take on this pre-mil end time thing and I'm proving my case by throwing aout a whole bunch of Scripture verses that seem to be related but really are not. Just don't look a the fine print and we will be all right." In other words, connect the dots...
