In a striking move with far-reaching implications, the Pentagon is considering Elon Musk’s SpaceX for a sweeping overhaul of the U.S. missile tracking system. The plan? Deploy hundreds of low-orbit satellites to replace the aging network of larger, more vulnerable systems. With its unmatched launch technology and a proven track record, SpaceX already has won the majority of contracts—and more may be on the way.
This isn’t just a defense strategy. For those watching world events through a prophetic lens, it may be a sign of something much bigger. In fact, it just may point to Elon Musk‘s pivotal role in the end times.
SpaceX: The Government’s Go-To for Space and Surveillance
As Prophecy Watchers hosts Mondo Gonzales and Gary Stearman note, SpaceX has quietly become indispensable to the U.S. government. From transporting astronauts and cargo to launching some of the most sensitive defense satellites, the company has established itself as a technological powerhouse. Its constellation of over 7,000 Starlink satellites dominates low-Earth orbit—creating a global infrastructure unlike anything seen before.
With few competitors able to match its capabilities, SpaceX no longer is just a private venture. It is now central to military planning, defense readiness and global communication. And the owner of SpaceX has superb power not readily available to most other people.

Elon Musk: A Modern-Day Candidate for Prophetic Power
Elon Musk is no ordinary entrepreneur. He is a billionaire, a visionary and an influencer who now holds the keys to global communication, space access and advanced surveillance systems. According to biblical prophecy, 10 figures will rise to power in the last days—leaders who are not kings in the traditional sense, but powerful influencers who will yield their authority to the Antichrist.
In this context, Musk stands out as a striking candidate for one of these prophetic “ten kings.”
He embodies the traits described in Scripture: immense wealth, global influence, control over technology and a drive to shape the future of humanity. His expanding involvement in military and global systems positions him as a figure who could, one day, hand over technological dominance to a central, antichrist figure.
Surveillance, Control, and the Infrastructure of Prophecy
What makes this development even more compelling is the kind of technology being deployed. Swarms of satellites, capable of global surveillance and tracking, would offer unprecedented control over data, communications, and movement. These tools could easily become the infrastructure for the kind of totalitarian control prophesied in Revelation.
In a future scenario, if someone like Musk were to transfer his satellite network or technological capabilities to a centralized world leader, it could enable mass surveillance, enforcement of a global economic system, and even support the implementation of the mark of the beast.
The Signs Are Clear—The Church Must Wake Up
This isn’t fearmongering—it’s foresight rooted in Scripture. The prophetic books of Daniel, Ezekiel and Revelation point to a time when global powers and technologies will converge under the control of a single, anti-God system. Before that system takes full form, the church will be caught up in the Rapture.
If someone like Elon Musk is already stepping into the kind of role prophecy watchers have warned about—technocratic kings, wielding influence through data, money and machines—then we are closer than ever to seeing these prophecies unfold.
This is a call to readiness.
The hour is late. The pieces are falling into place. And the church must be looking up—for our redemption is drawing near.
