Elisha Vision – Commentary

You don’t often see a modern miracle signed by the Messiah. Here is a great story of a soldier’s life saved by his helmet. Israel National News reported this miracle that happened today (Thursday 2-8-24) in Israel. A green circle shows where the bullet hit the helmet.  Click the link for the story.

Miracle in Samaria: Reservist shot in helmet survives attempted attack – An IDF reservist was shot in the helmet by a terrorist this morning. He escaped unharmed, and his comrades killed the attacker.

But there is more that is not mentioned in the article. If you look closely at the picture you can see a rectangular patch to the right of the green circle. It shows a crown and a Hebrew word. Do you know what the word is? It is “Messiah.” Wow! Talk about spelling it out for sceptics. The Messiah thought it would be fun to sign His miracle for the young soldier. Hallelujah!

Did this soldier have extra protection because he believed in the Messiah? I think we can go with that. There is a difference between rote religion and actual belief in God and His Messiah. Christian Zionists believe the Messiah is Yeshua, Jesus. I am not saying the soldier believed in Jesus, but he probably believes in the Messiah of Israel, who happens to be one and the same. Oh, how I pray for the final link to be made for Israelis. This Gaza war has softened the hearts of Jews and Arabs alike to call on the living God Yehovah. We pray that He will answer them with the revelation of our Savior and Messiah!

“For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His head; He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak.”  Isaiah 59:17

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;”  Ephesians 6:17

“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ (Yeshua ha Mashiach), who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us”  Titus 2:11-14a

Expect to hear more and more testimonials to miracles of deliverance and salvation in the midst of this Gaza war. Even though the enemies of God are crazed with the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people, they will fail. Yehovah God is faithful, and He will deliver. Not only will Israel prosper, but many will come to the knowledge of the Messiah Yeshua. Pray for them! Satan loses; God wins!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for the leaders, protection for the troops, and salvation for all who call on His name. Also, thank Him for the snow and rain that waters His land.
