Demonic spirits will inspire the rulers of the world to gather and fight against God. This is called the Battle of Armageddon (Rev 16:14-16). "Together they will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because He is Lord over all lords and King over all kings" (Rev 17:14). The evil and ungodly system of the world, called Babylon, will be fallen, and fallen forever! (Rev 18:2). ► Ezekiel 39 discusses the following "four-fold purpose of God in Armageddon": 1. I will set My glory among the heathen. 2. All the heathen will see My judgement that I have executed upon them (Ezek. 39:21). 3. The house of Israel will know that I am Jehovah their God from that day and forward (Ezek. 39:22). 4. The heathen will know that the house of Israel was defeated and went into captivity for their sins, and that I dealt with them accordingly (Ezek. 39:23-24).
