My prayer to Yehovah: “Please forgive the American people for the sins of our leaders. Please do not charge their hatred of Israel to our account. Please separate your inevitable judgement of the U.S. Administration from the citizens who do not support cursing Israel.”
“For thus says Yehovah of hosts: “He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye. For surely I will shake My hand against them, and they shall become spoil for their servants. Then you will know that Yehovah of hosts has sent Me.” Zechariah 2:8-9
We all know the boomerang principle of those who curse Israel will be cursed and those who bless Israel will be blessed, Genesis 12:3. The present dilemma has the Biden Administration opposing Israel, while most of Congress and the country support Israel as one of our most important allies. My prayer therefore seeks mercy from Yehovah to make a separation between the leaders and the people. The Biden government is illegally interfering with Israel elections, choosing sides in internal political decisions that are none of our business, and even financially support opposition protest against the duly elected government of Israel. This is not right; and this will inevitably bring judgement from God. May it not fall on the people, but only on the Administration. It is not a question of if, but only of how and when. Here are some example headlines.
State Department funds left-wing group behind protests against Israeli prime minister
US ultimatum to Netanyahu: Drop bill limiting aid to PA Arabs, score a meeting with Biden
MK Danny Danon: We respect the US but Israel’s policy will be determined by us – MK Danon responds to report that Biden admin won’t agree to mediate Israel-Saudi talks unless judicial reforms are dropped: “We must not advance our relations in the wake of an ultimatum.”
Biden’s Antisemitism Strategy Fails to Condemn BDS, Includes Hamas-Linked CAIR – This is the Biden administration’s betrayal of Jews in a nutshell.
Jill Biden to bypass Israel in Middle East trip – US First Lady Jill Biden will visit Egypt and Jordan during her first trip to the Middle East – but avoid Israel entirely.
Please pray for mercy for U.S. citizens, wisdom from above for Prime Minister Netanyahu, for seasonal rains, and for the peace of Jerusalem! We pray all these things in the matchless name of Yeshua ben Yehovah, Jesus the Son of God.

Protesters or Vandals?
7 06 2023Israel has experienced left-wing protests against the conservative government for 22 Saturdays. That is their right, Israel is a free country. However, I want to highlight a problem with words used. This is also true of the left in the U.S. This is just one small point of clarity, but applies beyond this singular incident. It may appear unimportant, but consider the following headline in Israel.
Protesters steal monument to PM’s father – A monument to Benzion Netanyahu was replaced with a banner calling him ‘Father of the Dictator’.
This headline demonstrates the hijacking of words. Just as the gay movement hijacked the rainbow symbol of God’s promise, the left is changing the definition of ordinary words. The act described in the above article would properly be called vandalism. Yet, using the term protester legitimizes the act. This is wrong. Vandalism is against the law. When peaceful protest crosses over the line to lawlessness it is no longer legitimate. Just as we must stand strong for Biblical morality, we must also reject the theft and perversion of normal word definitions. Little foxes spoil the vines.
Prime Minister Netanyahu is a fair target for criticism, but to desecrate the memory of his father is just wrong, especially while committing an illegal act. For the record, his father was almost universally loved and respected by all Israelis. He was directly involved in the formation of the nation in the 1940’s, and helped persuade the United States under President Truman to be the first to recognize the new Israeli state in 1948.
Speak truth from a pure and honest heart. Follow the example of Jesus, who is Truth! Perversion is not only a sexual problem, it even affects our communication. Call it out when someone twists the meaning of words. Stand for clarity. Teach your children the importance of words.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain in season. Also remember to pray for PM Netanyahu.
