In a stunning convergence of prophecy and geopolitics, a word released by Amanda Grace on Dec. 8, 2019, appears to have come to pass as the United States carried out a covert operation striking multiple nuclear facilities in Iran on June 21, 2025—the exact date prophesied two years prior.
The original word, delivered nearly six years ago, declared: “Iran will suffer a very public mortal wound, a gushing wound for what they have done to Israel. I’m striking Hezbollah with madness… Israel is going to launch a top secret harrowing spy offensive… and a jaw-dropping military operation will come forth.”
This week, that “jaw-dropping” operation happened.

In a powerful validation of the prophetic timeline, a 5.1 magnitude earthquake struck northern Iran near a military base just before the U.S. strike. Grace emphasized, “When the Lord says He’s going to shake a nation, He means it.”
A Two-Year Prophetic Countdown
Adding another layer of divine timing, Grace re-read a word on June 21, 2023, originally given on Sept.18, 2021, declaring:
“I the Lord will strike a fatal blow to the red dragon and that sickness shall carry to Persia… shaking, quaking, and explosion shall go forth in that country… The media of deception shall quake.”
Exactly two years to the day after the re-sharing of this word, the prophecy manifested with the coordinated strike against Iran’s nuclear program—a fulfillment made even more chilling by its precision.
More Prophetic Alignment
On Apr. 4, 2025, another prophetic word was given by Grace warning that Iran would be “enticed by a serpent to come out for a strike,” but it would result in “a backdraft through the Ayatollah’s court.” Following that warning, Israeli forces launched a separate attack just weeks later that reportedly scattered and killed top Iranian generals.
Another prophetic declaration by Grace from May 8, 2025, foretold a severe weakening of the alliance between China, Russia and Iran, stating that “two-thirds of its combined power shall be taken from current leaders.”
Revelation 4:7 and the Prophetic Power of 47
A remarkable pattern was also revealed to Grace through Revelation 4:7, which describes four living creatures: a lion, an ox, a man and an eagle. These symbols are prophetically interpreted as:
- Lion – Operation Rising Lion (Israel)
- Ox – Benjamin Netanyahu (prophesied on Feb. 26, 2023, as “the ox who will topple Iran’s regime”)
- Man and Eagle – President Trump and America
Adding even more prophetic weight is the fact that this year marks the 47th anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran. Trump is also the 47th President of the United States, and Grace linked Revelation 4:7 directly to this prophetic moment, calling it a “divine reversal” of the Ayatollah’s rise to power.
Reza Cyrus Pahlavi: The Physical Cyrus Rises
Grace pointed out that the son of the late Shah of Iran, Reza Cyrus Pahlavi, has become one of the most outspoken voices in opposition to the current regime. In October 2023, standing next to a newly unveiled statue of Cyrus the Great, he declared, “Iranians will take back their country from the forces of evil.”
With “Cyrus” as his middle name, Reza just may be a physical fulfillment of the Cyrus prophecy—a modern-day Persian leader rising to help liberate his people. Grace noted another powerful parallel between Pahlavi and Trump: “Trump was a spiritual Cyrus; Reza is a physical Cyrus.”
The Eagle from the East
Another prophetic connection Grace draws comes from Isaiah 46:9–11, where God says:
“Calling a bird of prey from the east, the man who executes my counsel from a far country… I have spoken it; I will bring it to pass.”
Stealth bombers—symbolized as “birds of prey”—came from the east. The man, executing God’s counsel from a far country, is interpreted as both Trump and Reza Pahlavi.

Grace’s word comes with a sobering reminder: God does not need human permission to execute His will. Whether judgment or deliverance, His timing is perfect, and His purposes prevail. “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof… we bow to God—He does not bow to us.”
