Today I must share this poem written just this week by my dear friend Michael Masambu of Kenya. He and his sweet wife Mama Sera were with us on our Israel tour nine months ago, only three weeks before the October 7 massacre of 1,200 + Israeli citizens. It was the worst one day loss of lives since the Holocaust. Michael was moved as we all were by the great tragedy and we choose to stand with Israel to eliminate Hamas. Hamas is the exact same spirit as Isis. We pray for Prime Minister Netanyahu and all the leaders of Israel. In the end it will be Yehovah God and His Messiah Yeshua who will win the day. He keeps His word to a thousand generations!
ABANDONED AND DEMONIZED BY ALLIES AND FOES.
Today she stands alone
Faced with war from within and without
Yet Israel shall stand.
Today her closest friend has abandoned her, left her alone in the dark, singing the song of her enemies
Not showing regard for her pain,
Yet Israeli shall stand.
She has been abandoned, but not into the hands of her foes
She is left in the hands of her God.
The enemy coalition has grown and increased
Yet Israel shall stand.
By abandoning her – To arm twist her to dance to the tune of the enemy coalition,
Her friends denied themselves a chance for honour.
Yet Israel shall stand.
The enemy coalition has stirred up anger against Israel.
The United Nations became a member
Divorcing its charter for popularity.
Yet Israel shall stand.
Go Israel go
Yehovah Sabaoth is with you
Go Israel go
The armies of heaven are with you
Go Israel go
Your Goliath will fall
Yet Israel shall stand.
They have pushed you from your birth
They have hated you like no other
They have enslaved you and beaten you
Yet from ashes you have prevailed
They thought you were gone never to rise again
Yet Israel shall stand.
Your God is listening to the conspirators
He laughs at all they plan?
He has prepared a language to address them
It is the language of his wrath
Yet Israel shall stand.
Arise Israel
For –
Yet Israel shall stand.

“So the people believed; and when they heard that Yehovah had visited the children of Israel and that He had looked on their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.” Exodus 4:31
Pray fervently for victory in Gaza and the north and peace for Jerusalem and all Israel. Pray for salvation in Jesus for Jews and Arabs alike. Also, please pray for Michael as he ministers in the U.S. the next few weeks.

Elisha Vision - Commentary 
Reminds me of something Paul said:
2 Corinthians 4:7-10 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves; we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.
Maybe it was prophetic

It sure does seem to apply in these times.

This is so true. Israel has laid in blood many time, but as God lives, so shall they. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Viki Johnson
