Peace Deal or Not, Only God is God

18 06 2026

This is my view. President Trump is not God. Only God is God; and I am speaking of Yehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Allah is not God, but only a pagan desert god that was elevated by Mohammed. I have been a faithful supporter of President Trump’s policy and his extraordinary support of Israel. I believe God raised him up “for such a time as this” as a Cyrus. However, this new Iran deal is the opposite of his record. Maybe it is a head fake with a trap for Iran, but it does not look good. Trump has been sounding more and more like Nebuchadnezzar:

“The king spoke, saying, “Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and for the honor of my majesty? While the word was still in the king’s mouth, a voice fell from heaven: “King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: the kingdom has departed from you!” Daniel 4:30-31

President Trump is treading on dangerous ground. My prayer continues that he will “hear from God, and have courage to do the right thing, in the right timing.” Our president can do nothing without God.

Notice the picture today. There has been no regime change. This is the same Islamist jihadi ideology for 47 years. The picture leaves out one other high Iranian regime official, Abbas Araghchi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs. He assumed his role on August 21, 2024. All of those pictured are first level. Only the Ayatollah’s son is second level and he has not been seen since the war started in February. President Trump is wrong when he says he is dealing with a third regime. These are exact same leaders from before the war started.

President Trump looked good when he was doing what the Holy Spirit led. But, when he veers away from Yehovah’s plan, he is exposed as only a man. I like this saying: ” When you and the Holy Spirit arrive at the same place at the same time, it makes you look good.” You better not make the mistake of thinking it is you or your brilliance that accomplished anything.

“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.” Proverbs 16:18-19

Remember Jesus own words, even though He was the Messiah Yeshua, He gave all the glory to the Father God. All the miracles and supernatural works that He did were not in his human ability, but by the power of the Holy Spirit. If it was true for Jesus, it is much more the fact with President Trump, and for you and me.

“Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner. For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel. … “I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.” John 5:19-20 and John 5:30.

By the way, I am sticking to the prophecy of Jeremiah 49:34-39. I have been writing about this prophecy since February 19th before the war and in several articles since then. I don’t know how we get there, but I trust God’s word more than any man. As long as President Trump stands with Israel he and our nation will be blessed. But, if he turns against Israel, then woe to our land. Pray for President Trump! And pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Grounding in Truth

11 06 2026

Grounding is a popular trend these days. The idea is that connecting barefoot to the earth releases an electrical charge that may benefit health. It is even a business selling items to “ground” you.

“Grounding, or earthing, is a practice that involves direct contact with the soil or using a device that creates a pathway between the body and the ground. It is based on the hypothesis that the earth has a negative electrical charge that can benefit the body by fighting free radicals.” Healthline

I am not endorsing grounding in dirt, but it illustrates a deeper point about truth. We are living in a prophetic time of wars and rumors of wars and need to be grounded on the rock of Divine truth. Pontius Pilate famously asked Jesus: “What is truth?” John 18:38 This followed Jesus’ statement in the previous verse: “Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.” John 18:37 In another place Jesus declared: “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6

Jesus is the way to the Father. He is our connection to Yehovah God. He is the living Word. He is the truth of Scripture embodied in living person. Truth is more than science, which helps us understand truth and reality. The Bible is the ultimate written revelation of truth.

Our modern world is flooded with opinion, but detached from truth. It is time to come back to the foundation of truth revealed by God Himself. People reject the simplicity of Scripture. They wander away, slip away, fall away, and even run away from God who is truth. Doesn’t it make sense that the Creator of the universe would have the most accurate explanation for everything? When you face fear or depression or confusion it is time to get grounded again in the truth! Return to the eternal source and fountain of truth, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Get grounded in His Word!

“Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” Hebrews 6:16-20

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for our leaders that they will hear from God, have courage, and do the right thing at the right time.

What’s Up with Pres. Trump?

4 06 2026
Man kneeling on a cushion praying with Israeli and American flags behind him

People all over the political spectrum are freaking out about Iran delays. Anti-war folks are upset. Free Iran folks are upset. Even the middle ground is shaking. Believers are facing a strong temptation to give up on President Trump. That is a mistake. Of course, we should never fully trust any man. “Trust but verify” applies to leaders as well as treaties. Only God is perfectly faithful and true, but He still uses men.

“Do not put your trust in princes, ​​Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. ​​His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; ​​In that very day his plans perish. ​​Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yehovah his God,” Psalm 146:3-5

“Now I know that Yehovah saves His anointed; ​​He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand. ​​Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; ​​But we will remember the name of Yehovah our God.” Psalm 20:6-7

So, we trust God that He has raised up this president for “such a time as this” to carry out God’s plan. Trump is a man and will not always get it right. But the overall trajectory is in the hand of Yehovah God. He is able to give us course corrections in the middle of battle. I find this true in my own life! That’s why I pray for our president to “hear from God, have courage, and do the right thing in God’s timing.” Remember the complete change in wicked King Nebuchadnezzar at the end of his life.

They shall drive you from men, your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you eat grass like oxen. They shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over you, till you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses. All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; He does according to His will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain His hand or say to Him, “What have You done?” At the same time my reason returned to me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was restored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added to me. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.” Daniel 4:25, 35-37

Don’t panic and become a “sky is falling” panican. Calm down and rest in God. He has already told us His plan in Jeremiah 49:34-39. Don’t put your trust in man, especially the propaganda news. Stick with Scripture, the comfort of the Holy Spirit, and Yeshua, the Prince of Peace and our Messiah!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

What is Issachar Forum?

28 05 2026

For 25 years I have been writing this Elisha Vision blog. All along I have also held weekly meetings for open discussion called: Issachar Forum: A Prophetic Think Tank. That is admittedly a bit pretentious but it is what we really do each week, based on this verse:

“the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their command;” 1 Chronicles 12:32

Issachar Forum is based on Israel’s tribe of Issachar who “understood the times” and knew what God’s people should do. We look at current events in the light of Biblical prophetic promises. Just as Peter recognized “This is that prophesied by Joel,” we connect the dots with events and the Biblical prophetic decrees. We have discovered multiple prophesies being fulfilled in our time, such as Jeremiah 49:344-39, which I have also previously shared in this blog. I call myself “a voice of Christian Zionists” simply because God Himself gave the Holy Land to Israel. We meet at 6pm every Sunday at Milton’s Restaurant in Wake Forest, NC and 6pm every Friday in the lobby of Capital Church in Garner. Come join us.

“​​But as for me, I trust in You, O Yehovah; ​​I say, “You are my God.” ​​My times are in Your hand; ​​Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, ​​and from those who persecute me. ​​Make Your face shine upon Your servant; save me for Your mercies’ sake.” Psalm 31:14-16

“And you will hear of wars and threats of wars, but don’t panic. Yes, these things must take place, but the end won’t follow immediately.” Matthew 24:6 NLT

Don’t panic. If we only watch the news we may be tempted to fear. But if we go by what God says in the Bible we have faith, because He is in control. We recognize that current events are unfolding just as He promised. An old joke says: If you don’t watch the news you are uninformed, but if you do watch the news you are misinformed. We must go higher and listen to God’s voice through the Holy Spirit, the author of the Bible.

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16

“knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.” 2 Peter 1:20-21

“This decision is by the decree of the watchers, and the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know
That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, gives it to whomever He will, and sets over it the lowest of men.” Daniel 4:17

Every Sunday afternoon I post my Issachar Forum podcast, which is a 20 minute version of the public meetings. You can view it by clicking on the YouTube logo below. Please subscribe and especially please pray for us. Thank you!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Ten Commands or Ten Suggestions?

21 05 2026

Today at sundown is the Biblical feast of Shavuot/Pentecost. Jews celebrate receiving the Ten Commandments and Christians celebrate it as Pentecost. Both are the work of God. One is external and the other is internal. Do you remember this sermon topic, in the above title, warning us to take the ten commandments seriously?

Then we realized how hard it is to “keep the law.” Our problem is our own sinful rebellious nature. It is in our DNA. We really don’t want to keep the law of God. What if I told you that God planned a solution for our dilemma? The external commands were written on stone by the finger of Yehovah God, but the internal law is written on our hearts by the Holy Spirit of God. Both are from God. The Law was given to teach us about our inability to keep the law. It makes clear to us that we cannot make it without the Messiah. When God writes His law on our hearts we change from rebellious failure to actually desiring to follow Him. Our heart changes from obligation to alignment with His will. It makes all the difference. The Law is “our tutor that brings us to Christ/Messiah.”

“Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” Galatians 3:21-24

“clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.“ 2 Corinthians 3:3

“For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness,” Romans 2:12-15

So, you see that we can keep the ten commandments by aligning our hearts with His Holy Spirit and believing in the Messiah.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

National Sabbath and Rededication

14 05 2026

Rededicate 250: A National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise & Thanksgiving – This weekend our nation declares our heritage of one nation under God. President Trump has proclaimed a national Sabbath remembrance from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. Our entire country is called to prayer for our land. This is followed by a call for Americans to gather on the National Mall in DC for a day of prayer and rededication of our national motto: “In God We Trust.” One lady from our Wake Forest Issachar Forum is representing our group on Sunday. We should all align ourselves with this holy purpose. Wherever you are this weekend set aside a time to join millions of Americans rededicating this God ordained republic to His Almighty providential care.

Today is Jerusalem Day in Israel, celebrating the reunification of Jerusalem 59 years ago in 1967. Also, this weekend is the 78th anniversary of the supernatural rebirth of the nation of Israel in 1948. These celebrations are in the context of war with Iran and President Trump’s meeting with President Xi in China. Of course, Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon are also coming to a decisive point. All of these events fit precisely into the prophetic blueprint of Ezekiel 38. I have previously detailed the seven peace references in that chapter. All of these global events are coming together for a time of peace before the Gog and Magog war. Even China is at place of needing peace for a season before they resume their global conquest goals. Our nation has been blessed because we were founded on the Bible and a Judeo/Christian foundation. We bless Israel and therefore we are blessed. Yehovah God has a plan of favor for Israel and we are part of it!

“For thus says the Lord Yehovah: “Indeed I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out. As a shepherd seeks out his flock on the day he is among his scattered sheep, so will I seek out My sheep and deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and dark day. And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land; I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the valleys and in all the inhabited places of the country. I will feed them in good pasture, and their fold shall be on the high mountains of Israel. There they shall lie down in a good fold and feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. I will feed My flock, and I will make them lie down,” says the Lord Yehovah. “I will seek what was lost and bring back what was driven away, bind up the broken and strengthen what was sick; but I will destroy the fat and the strong, and feed them in judgment.” Ezekiel 34:11-16

Four day pride festival to be held at Dead Sea, largest in history of Middle East – “Pride Land is not just another festival,” said the main producer and initiator of the festival, Aaron Cohen, “it’s the biggest thing we’ve done here.” Alongside the nightlife, Pride Land will have cultural and art complexes, relaxation and scenic areas, and family-friendly areas with children’s activities, family-friendly workshops, and customized events.

So even now the enemy of our holy God is trying to sabotage God’s blessings on Israel. We need to be in much prayer that it will fail. One of the elements of the Oct. 7 massacre was the Nova festival featuring a huge image of a false god. The battle is not flesh and blood but spiritual wickedness in high places, or in this case the lowest point on earth, adjacent to the Biblical judgement of Sodom and Gomorrah. A LGBTQ pride festival celebrating immoral perversion is scheduled there for June 1-4.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! Pray against the enemy. Stand with Israel and pray for both of our nations to return to the God of our fathers!

Mark Twain in the Bible?

7 05 2026

How does the most authenticated book in history keep revealing present day history with such accuracy? Most of my life I have been fascinated by the amazing prophesies fulfilled, especially the restoration of Israel. I love Psalm 102, the Holocaust Psalm, and Ezekiel 36, which tells of God’s unconditional promise to the land of Israel. But is it possible that Mark Twain fulfilled a prophecy? His book, Innocents Abroad, detailed his experiences visiting the Holy Land in 1867. He was “the foreigner!”

“so that the coming generation of your children who rise up after you, and the foreigner who comes from a far land, would say, when they see the plagues of that land and the sicknesses which Yehovah has laid on it: ‘The whole land is brimstone, salt, and burning; it is not sown, nor does it bear, nor does any grass grow there, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, which Yehovah overthrew in His anger and His wrath.’” Deuteronomy 29:22-23

Mark Twain is that “foreigner” from a far land. His role was to document the devastation and utter destruction of Israel. This was because of the 400 years of rule by the Muslim Ottoman Empire based in Turkey. They intentionally destroyed the land even to the extreme of taxing every tree, causing most of the trees to be cut down to save on taxes. But when you visit Israel today it is once again a land flowing with milk and honey. This restoration means so much more when compared to the desert conditions 160 years ago. God is faithful.

“All nations would say, ‘Why has Yehovah done so to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?’ Then people would say: ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of Yehovah God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt; for they went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they did not know and that He had not given to them.” Deuteronomy 29:24-26

“You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off. And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?” Romans 11:19-24

But the good news is that after nearly 2,000 years of scattering among the nations, Israel is back! And the reason is to prove that God keeps His word. None of us deserve is mercy and forgiveness, but He loves Israel and He loves us so much that He offers total forgiveness and restoration. Israel is the proof of His mercy and lovingkindness.

“The desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass by. So they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, Yehovah, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, Yehovah, have spoken it, and I will do it.” Ezekiel 36:34-36

God is Faithful! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Save Nigerian Christians

30 04 2026

“GLOBAL FLOTILLA! …to save Nigerian Christians – contact Greta Thunberg” (My attempt at satire). This is ridiculous! Seriously though, we need to pray for Nigerian believers who are experiencing a true genocide from Muslim terrorists. At this very time Israel has seized 20 ships and boats from a “Gaza flotilla” led by Greta Thunberg. Where is her outcry for the truly oppressed Nigerians?

The picture with this article is an AI generated concept of Greta in a jungle rowboat. It is tragic humor designed to illustrate the insanity of her futile efforts to “save Gaza” from a “famine” and her complete ignoring of Nigeria.

Navy detains over 20 flotilla ships, 175 activists en route to Gaza Strip – Jerusalem Post

UN-backed data undercuts viral Gaza famine claims as child malnutrition falls – Fox News

Over 50,000 Christians killed in Nigeria by Islamist extremists – According to the report “Martyred Christians in Nigeria” issued by Intersociety, over the past 14 years at least 52,250 Nigerian Christians have been brutally murdered at the hands of Islamist militants.

Meanwhile, the massacres in Nigeria do not stop. We must pray for the Christians of that country and other persecuted followers of Jesus around the world. There is a saying in Israel regarding the Muslim jihadi terrorists. “First the Saturday people, and then the Sunday people”. This is tragically true. Jews and Christians are forever linked by our common belief in Yehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The faith of Abraham in the promise of the Messiah is shared by believing Christians. The difference about who that Messiah actually is will be resolved by God Himself. Our common Judeo/Christian heritage locks us together in the defense of the Almighty Creator God who is the one and only true God. Our allegiance to Yehovah and His Messiah places a target on our backs. The battle is ultimately a spiritual battle between God and Satan, good and evil as declared in Ephesians 6. My view of the union of Jews and Christians is expressed quite clearly by the apostle Paul in Ephesians 2 in the Hebrew Names Version.

“Therefore remember that once you, the Goyim in the flesh, who are called “uncircumcision” by that which is called “circumcision,” (in the flesh, made by hands); that you were at that time separate from Messiah, alienated from the commonwealth of Yisra’el, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Messiah Yeshua you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Messiah. For he is our shalom, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition, having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of mitzvot contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making shalom; and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility thereby. He came and preached shalom to you who were far off and to those who were near. For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the holy ones, and of the household of God, being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Messiah Yeshua himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord; in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.” Ephesians 2:11-22 HNV

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Nigeria.

Modern Israel: Fraud or Miracle?

23 04 2026
Sunrays break through clouds above terraced hills and a village with a person standing on a dirt path

Is the restoration of Israel a fraud, or is it a miracle between Israel and God? Bible prophets are consistent in predicting an end time revival of the nation of Israel. Today, Biblically illiterate podcasters mock the promises of God regarding Israel. Ezekiel was quite clear explaining that this miracle would happen following the severe judgement of God on Israel for their sin.

“Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own ways and deeds; to Me their way was like the uncleanness of a woman in her customary impurity. Therefore I poured out My fury on them for the blood they had shed on the land, and for their idols with which they had defiled it. So I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries; I judged them according to their ways and their deeds.” Ezekiel 36:17-19

This chapter of Ezekiel is the foundation of my book: Speak to the Dirt! First, you must take his prophecy literally. Second, notice that Israel was dispersed throughout the countries. This eliminates all previous exiles of Israel. This 1,800 year “diaspora” is the only one to all the countries. Third, their resurrection as a nation depends on the faithfulness of Yehovah God. Because He revealed His plan to many Biblical prophets, the very integrity of His own word is at stake. If He does not restore Israel, God Himself is a fraud. The faithful nature of God is on the line.

“God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?” Numbers 23:19

“…in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began…” Titus 1:2

“Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.” Hebrews 6:17-18

“Israel is a nation that defies all logic, and that drives the nations mad. When people cannot understand strength, they look for excuses: it must be fraud. There must be some dark trick that gives the Jews this kind of power. Jews control this, Jews control that. Antisemitism. Heaven forbid—this cannot be real, Israel must be cheating! Because if Israel is real, if this ancient and hated people is still alive, then perhaps God is not a myth after all. Perhaps evil does not get the final word. Perhaps the people of Israel are not just a people, but a testimony. So they deny Israel. They slander Israel. They fight Israel in anger. Because it is easier to call a miracle a fraud than to admit a relationship between Israel and God.” Aviel Schneider, Editor of Israel Today

So, we are left with two options. Either God Himself is a fraud and a liar, or He faithful to fulfill His promises to restore Israel. Personally, I am going to stick with the Bible as the word of God.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and than God for Israel!

Dayenu: It Would Have Been Enough

16 04 2026

Profound lessons can come from simple songs. A traditional song at Passover (Dayenu – lyrics) is repeated every year by Jews (and by some Christian Zionists) all over the world. It has been especially sweet this week as my wife and I have been realizing how overwhelmingly blessed we have been. At each milestone we could say it would have been enough, but God keeps blessing. It is undeserved, but we are so thankful. As we enter the last third (from 80-120) of our lives, we face the inevitable issues of later life. Growing old is not for sissies, they say. Yet, our eyes are on Jesus, our Messiah.

“Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1-2

We are reminded of being thankful for the little things, and also the big blessings. It matters what you believe. Living with faith in God makes a difference! We live in a dysfunctional world of fear foreboding. Confusion, deception, and detachment haunt most people today. But when we count our blessings compared to what we actually deserve, our cup “runneth over.” There is a hidden revelation in a familiar verse in the prophet Daniel.


“Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.” Daniel 11:32

Interestingly, the last two words “great exploits” are not in the Hebrew text. The Hebrew for “carry out” is simply translated as “do” or “act.” In other words, it is not so much about doing great things, but simply being functional in a dysfunctional world. Some in our day are cowering in fear and dread. Put your hope in God! The sky is not falling. Do not panic. Trust in God. He never fails. We who know God will be strong and functional. The contrast, with those who have no faith, will draw them to the light of God. Historically, the greatest revivals come at times of great stress. Let your light shine. Candles are for dark places.

Are you a moth or a cockroach? When you turn on a light, moths are drawn to the light, but cockroaches scurry away to find a dark place to hide. Come to the light! Jesus is the light of the world. Don’t be dysfunctional. Live in the grace of God.

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; ​​You anoint my head with oil; ​​My cup runs over. ​​Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me ​​All the days of my life; ​​and I will dwell in the house of Yehovah forever.” Psalm 23:5-6

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Iran: 3 Scenarios, 1 Truth

9 04 2026

Confusion, disinformation, and false hope are dominating the news this week. The various scenarios being floated are flawed. The Tupperware classic baby puzzle illustrates my point. Each piece only fits in one hole. Similarly, the Iran puzzle only has one solution. Here are three wrong scenarios and the true answer.

  1. Iran wins and we evacuate our troops from the Middle East in defeat.
  2. We stop now, halfway to victory, and the wounded jihadist regime lives to fight another day.
  3. The ceasefire fails and we finish the job, destroying the regime completely with a new constitutional democracy.

Which of these options compare to the truth? No one wants the Islamic Republic to win. Some are willing to settle for a partial peace just to end the fighting, which is a false hope. It would only lead to an inevitable future conflict. The third option is the only one that can be found in Bible prophecy. I choose to rely on the Word of God over human plans.

“I will bring disaster upon them, My fierce anger,’ says Yehovah; ‘And I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them. I will set My throne in Elam (Iran), And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says Yehovah.” Jeremiah 49:37-38

This prophecy clearly declares the enemy will be consumed and the king (Ayatollah) and his princes (IRGC) will be destroyed. Check out my previous explanation: Trump’s Iran Timeline. We need to pray that President Trump will not lean on pride to claim a premature victory. I trust the word of God. I still pray that he will hear from God, and have courage to do the right thing. I believe he will. The people of Iran are longing for freedom from the 47 year jihadist oppression. We cannot abandon them when we are this close to their victory.

The Invisible Solution – I am amazed that the media is oblivious to the real missing link, the final piece of the puzzle. Crown Prince Pahlavi, the son of the deposed Shah (king) of Iran from 1979 has been working behind the scene for years. He has assembled an honest cross-section of Iranians both inside and outside of Iran prepared to lead the transitional government after the end of the terror regime. When the time is right, tens of millions of the Iranian people will come out of their homes and rise up and support the Crown Prince. I am convinced that this is the final scenario and I pray for patience for the leaders and the people. This is not the time to settle for half measures. PRAY!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

They Attacked. We Won. Let’s Eat!

2 04 2026

My title today is the tongue-in-cheek history of the Jewish people. The DNA of Israel contains a deep and sometimes hidden awareness of God’s Hand on them. History has proven that against all odds they still exist as a people and a nation. Only God could have preserved them through all the mighty empires and individual haters who tried to utterly destroy them. Yet, they are here. And they are winning. Because God is with them.

“Do not keep silent, O God! ​​Do not hold Your peace, and do not be still, O God! ​​For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; and those who hate You have lifted up their head. ​​They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, and consulted together against Your sheltered ones. ​​They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” Psalm 83:1-4

The Psalm continues with an appeal to God that He deal with Israel’s enemies as He did with the Midianites in Gideon’s day. They fought and killed each other by God’s intervention. We see the same today. If Iran could have managed to get the Arabs on their side, they could have defeated Israel. But, instead, they split up and now the Arabs are fighting WITH Israel! Wow, only God!

The Dry Bones cartoon today reveals another reason the Jews survive. Humor. It would be good for all of us to lighten up once in a while. (Special thanks and honor to Sali Kirschen who is keeping her husband Yaakov’s cartoons circulating around the world. He always referred to her as the LSW, Long Suffering Wife. I encourage you to check out the cartoons and consider a gift of appreciation for Sali at this site: Dry Bones. Thank you.)

As we celebrate Passover this week along with glorious hope of the resurrection, remember the blood on the doorposts pointed to the blood of the Jewish Messiah Yeshua at the hands of the Romans.

“The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” John 1:29

Pray for the shalom of Jerusalem with victory in Iran and freedom for the Iranian people.

How to Pray for Iran

26 03 2026

My prayer is that God will cause the Islamic Revolutionary Guards and the Basij murderers to turn on one another. Our attention has been on Jeremiah 49:34-39. I explained Jeremiah’s prophecy in my February 19th post: Trump’s Iran Timeline.

Today please consider the Biblical pattern of God’s intervention in man’s wars. I am applying this to Iran based on Jeremiah announcing in verses 37-38:

“I will bring disaster upon them, My fierce anger,’ says Yehovah; ‘And I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them. I will set My throne in Elam, And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says Yehovah.”

Yehovah God Himself will bring disaster on the wicked rulers of Elam/Iran. This Divine intervention is seen as a Biblical pattern. Several times in history God has brought victory to His people by causing the enemies to turn and fight each other to the death! Gideon and 300 men defeated a massive Midianite army this way. Secondly, Psalm 83 is a prayer that God would defeat His enemies just as He did with Gideon. Third, King Saul’s son Jonathan and his armor-bearer attacked a Philistine outpost who killed one another in fear and panic. A fourth example is one of my favorite Bible stories, the time King Jehoshaphat was victorious over three armies without using one weapon! Singers and worshippers were sent in front of the army.

“Now when they began to sing and to praise, Yehovah set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another. So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.” 2 Chronicles 20:22-24

So, since God is going to set His throne in the hearts of Iranians, we should pray that the Biblical pattern will emerge. Pray that the terrorist jihadis will turn on each other. You can be sure that God’s hand is on this war and the outcome is certain. Father, let your will be done in Iran. Let there be peace in the Middle East and Israel according to you Word..

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of Iran!

Ten Sensational Words

19 03 2026

Did I get your attention? It’s all about clicks. Words have become currency to seduce the reader to check out the post. These words are not used because they best describe the story. They are used to amplify the story beyond its actual importance. Today I am straying from news commentary to the way words are misused in the news. Here is my list for just the last two days. You could add ten more of your own.

INSANE! STUNNED! NIGHTMARE! UNPRECEDENTED! SHOCKING! MASSIVE! INCINERATED! DEVASTATED! DECIMATED! OBLITERATED! Help me, I can’t stop… ANNIHILATED! DISINTEGRATED! RAVISHED! SMASHED! CRAZY! Okay, I’ll stop. Do you see what I mean? This is all over the news and Facebook and every internet poser. Do you remember something called “civil discourse?” Can’t we communicate anymore without such exaggerations? Seriously, this is a real problem.

There was a popular subculture movie that became a cult classic back in the 1980’s called The Princess Bride. One character kept saying each unfolding event was “inconceivable!” Finally, another character observed: “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” It just didn’t fit each event. All these sensational word examples are real words; they just don’t apply as often as they are used. Only use the words that truly apply. Today’s culture is lazy, using MASSIVE exaggerations instead of the truth. The Bible warns us about this kind of speech.

“But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:36-37

“Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk,” 1 Timothy 1:5-6

“For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error.” 2 Peter 2:3

“But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.” Matthew 5:37

Words matter. I believe the Lord would have us be precise in our communication, strong, but clear. People need to trust our words. Let us resolve to speak honestly and with love to one another that God is glorified.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and specifically pray for the Iranian citizens as they proceed to take back their country from the jihadist Islamic occupiers of the last 47 years. Those blessing Israel will be blessed!

Present Times Prophecy

12 03 2026

End times prophecy is different than present times prophecy. Some scholars are trying to figure out all the beasts, and trumpets, and earthquakes, and wars, and timing of future events. That may be an appropriate lane for them, but I love finding prophetic promises that are being fulfilled in the present time. For some time now I have been excited to discover what I call “This is that!” moments.

It is when we discover a prophecy from thousands of years ago being fulfilled in our day. On the day of Pentecost, Peter saw the outpouring of God’s Spirit and recognized it was the exact fulfillment of the prophet Joel’s prophecy in Joel 2:28-32. Peter then quoted five verses from Joel as proof that what was happening came from God.

“But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words. For these are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel.” Joel 2:14-16

We see the same today. Peter did not prophesy, he recognized the ancient prophecy. We are capable of the same. I have shared several of these exciting moments of history. Psalm 102 describes the Holocaust and then declares that it signaled the restoration of Israel which happened in the same time frame of 1940-1948. Psalm 83 describes Arab nations attacking Israel and losing, which occurred in the first 50 years of modern Israel. In Luke 21:24 Jesus prophesied the downfall and restoration of Jerusalem which happened in 70AD and 1967, respectively. Amos saw three wars from Gaza and a fourth which would be their end in Amos 1:6-7. which specifically relates to the Gaza/Hamas War. Lately, we recognize Jeremiah 49:34-39 being precisely fulfilled in the current Iran war today! Yehovah God has a purpose for prophecy. It is not to confuse us or cause fear, but to bring comfort, knowing that He is directly involved.

“Prophecy was not delivered to academic elites. It was given to shepherds, farmers, merchants, elders, young converts, and small congregations navigating real-world pressures. It was never meant to intimidate believers. It was meant to steady them. God does not reveal the future to confuse His people. Throughout Scripture, prophecy functions as preparation, warning, and comfort. When God speaks about what is coming, He does so because He wants His people to be ready, not rattled. Amos wrote, “Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7). Jesus told His disciples, “See, I have told you beforehand” (Matthew 24:25). Later He added, “These things I have told you before they come, that when they do come to pass, you may believe” (John 14:29). Prophecy strengthens faith by removing surprise. When events unfold exactly as spoken, belief is reinforced rather than shaken. Isaiah records the Lord declaring, “I am God… declaring the end from the beginning” (Isaiah 46:9-10). The future is not unfolding randomly. It is unfolding according to divine decree.” Christian News Watch

Fear not! God has everything under control according to His Divine purpose. Jesus promised He would never leave us or forsake us. Hang in there. Be encouraged when you see God performing His word. He has a plan and He will complete it according to His eternal word. Trust God! Biblical events are happening!

“Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Luke 21:28

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray that God’s people will see His hand on Israel, Iran, and the nations.

God’s Throne in Iran

5 03 2026

What is God doing in Iran? The war news is full of bombs and explosions that make for must-watch TV. But this is not your typical war. As I have explained the last few weeks, this is a major historical turning point when viewed through Jeremiah 49. Today I want to zoom in on God’s purpose in verse 38. So far, the extremely low number of casualties is nothing short of miraculous. Americans are understandably concerned, but I believe this is a short war that will see amazing success.

“I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says Yehovah.” Jeremiah 49:38

For several years now we have seen reports of three million or more Iranians turning from Islam to Jesus. Iran has the fastest growing church in the world, in spite of meeting underground. This verse predicted the destruction of the king (ayatollah) and his princes (IRGC). We have already seen the “king” destroyed and the IRGC is being destroyed day by day. (By the way, IRGC is “Islamic” Revolutionary Guard Corp, not “Iranian.”)

The great promise of Yehovah God through Jeremiah is to establish His throne in Iran (Elam). Of course, He is not moving His physical throne from Jerusalem, but He is being enthroned in the hearts of Iranians as each person chooses the God of Israel. This will also necessarily lead to a great relationship between Iran and Israel. Also, most Arab nations will join the Abraham Accords, including Saudi Arabia. My opinion is that the Iranian Crown Prince will lead a transitional government and elections for leaders chosen legally by vote of the Iranian people.

Once again God manifests His faithfulness to keep every promise in His Word. God is faithful and never breaks His covenant, from salvation to His presence, every promise made is fulfilled in His perfect timing.

“Not a word failed of any good thing which Yehovah had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass.” Joshua 21:45

“If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” 2 Timothy 2:13

“The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 2:9

Don’t fear the outcome of this Iran war. God is establishing His throne! Pray for the Iranians that they will see their Messiah and turn from pagan Islam to the living God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for President Trump and PM Netanyahu for wisdom and courage to do the right thing.

Prophetic Necessity of THIS Iran Attack

26 02 2026

There is a missing link in the prophecy timeline of modern Israel. Prophecy buffs seem fixated on the build up to final wars, especially Gog and Magog. But there is a season of peace that is overlooked. Ezekiel 38 reveals conditions in Israel at the onset of that invasion. No less than seven times in three verses he describes an extraordinary peace. He addresses his prophecy to the invaders, telling them what Israel is like before Gog invades. Since Israel has not experienced that degree of peace yet since 1948, it must happen soon, before the Gog invasion. Check out the seven phrases here.

(8) “After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely. … (11) You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’ … (14) Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?” Ezekiel 38:8,11,14

Iran/Persia was specifically named as one of the invaders, but their roll is later, after the time of peace. Iran’s present regime is acting out of sequence with Scripture and therefore must be removed until their appointed timing to invade. That is why I conclude that this present action against Iran will completely succeed, providing Israel with a season of real peace with their neighbors.

I am working on a booklet to explain the modern timeline beginning with the Holocaust and prophesied resurrection of Israel in 1948. That was an historic change from judgement of Israel to favor and restoration described in Psalm 102. The next period is described in Psalm 83, a series of wars and attacks leading to the present time. It included the regaining of ancient Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Six Day War, prophesied by Jesus Himself in Luke 21:24. He said gentiles would rule until their period of ruling would end. All of these dots are now connected. We have seen it with our own eyes. The mistake is to skip the “peace” that precedes the Gog & Magog invasion.

We all pray for Jesus’ return to be ASAP, but God’s word is sure and will be fulfilled precisely. I find this encouraging and look forward to a time of peace, at least for Israel. But it will surely ripple around the world. Am I looking for a third world war now? No, I am not. Here is one more little tidbit. Do you see any Israelis killed in Ezekiel 38? No, because God Himself will fight this battle. Please carefully pray and consider what I am saying. When prophesied events and history sync up we need to pay heed. Also, please refer to my post from last week about Jeremiah 49 regarding the judgement and deliverance of Iran/Elam/Persia.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for President Trump and PM Netanyahu for wisdom and courage to do the right thing.

Trump’s Iran Timeline

19 02 2026

President Trump has given several indications of his timeline, but does the Bible agree? When he met with Bibi Dec 29th in Mar-A-Largo they spoke of a “two month timeline.” Today he spoke of a ten day window. Both refer to action by the end of this month. On Jan 4th I spoke at Grace Assembly on: “Turning the Page.” I believe we are at global prophetic turning point at the scale of the fall of the Berlin wall, the 1948 return of the state of Israel, and the Israeli capture of old Jerusalem in the 1967 Six Day War. Eliminating Iran and its terrorist proxies will usher in an extraordinary time of peace for Israel and the Middle East. But I don’t conclude that from geo-political events, but rather from the Bible.

For some time I have seen this coming season of peace from the conditions Ezekiel revealed about Israel dwelling “without walls” at the time of the Gog & Magog invasion of Ezekiel 38. The removal of Iran as a threat to Israel and the region is necessary to meet Ezekiel’s description. Recently I have seen a clear prophecy of Iran in Jeremiah 49:34-39.

“Judgment on Elam – 34 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying, 35 “Thus says the LORD of hosts: ​‘​Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, ​​The foremost of their might. 36 ​​Against Elam I will bring the four winds ​​From the four quarters of heaven, ​​And scatter them toward all those winds; ​​There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go. 37 ​​For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies ​​And before those who seek their life. ​​I will bring disaster upon them, ​​My fierce anger,’ says the LORD; ​‘​And I will send the sword after them ​​Until I have consumed them. 38 ​​I will set My throne in Elam, ​​And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says the LORD. 39 ​‘​But it shall come to pass in the latter days: ​​I will bring back the captives of Elam,’ says the LORD.”

Here is a very short overview. First, note that Elam refers to the whole nation of Iran (scroll down to the Gesenius’ Hebrew-Chaldee lexicon entry). Second, note that the verses are chronological beginning with v. 35, the overthrow of the Shah in 1979, followed by Iranians exiled to all countries in v.36. These two events have happened. Verse 37 brings us to the present where evil leaders will be consumed by the sword which is sent by Yehovah Himself. Also during this time God sets His throne there. You have probably heard reports that three million or more Iranians have turned to Jesus, giving Him the throne over their lives. One report said that there may be more Christians now in Iran than Muslims. The last verse then declares the return of the exiles and that it occurs in the “last days.” Hallelujah!

This is happening soon. It may not be in ten days, but it is God’s plan. Pray for protection for the Iranian freedom lovers, Israel, our U.S forces, and the surrounding nations.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Last Nation Standing

12 02 2026

The Bible has the final say, or specifically, Yehovah has the final say. We think we are in control, but in the end God wins! For thousands of years many nations have risen to eliminate Israel yet they have passed into history and Israel stands. It will be the same in our day. They are fighting against God. He established Israel and He gave them their land. He ordained that they would produce the Messiah and He would be the Savior of the world for all who accept Him.

Prime Minister Netanyahu had a quick visit in DC yesterday and cancelled his return visit next week. He will now speak to AIPAC remotely. We are likely on cusp of the major defeat of Iran’s Islamic regime at the hands of America and Israel. This fits into God’s plan and His revealed purpose. My friend Ken Schulte shared this verse with me this morning. Consider its profound meaning.

​“But do not fear, O My servant Jacob, and do not be dismayed, O Israel! ​​For behold, I will save you from afar, and your offspring from the land of their captivity; ​​Jacob shall return, have rest and be at ease; ​​No one shall make him afraid. ​​Do not fear, O Jacob My servant,” says Yehovah, ​​“For I am with you; for I will make a complete end of all the nations to which I have driven you, ​​But I will not make a complete end of you. ​​I will rightly correct you, for I will not leave you wholly unpunished.” Jeremiah 46:27-28

God will make an end of the nations but not Israel, even though they will face correction. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to stand with God who stands with Israel. For some unknown reason I have had over 140 views this week of a post that I wrote in 2012 in which I quoted Amos 9. It goes right along with Jeremiah’s word.

“Behold, the days are coming,” says Yehovah, “When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed; the mountains shall drip with sweet wine, And all the hills shall flow with it. I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them. I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have given them,” Says Yehovah your God.  Amos 9:14-15.

NO LONGER shall they be pulled up from the THEIR LAND that God gave them! Yes, they have been exiled and returned numerous times in history, but the time comes when they will never again be uprooted. All nations rise and fall but Israel is eternal! Israel is the real deal. Are they perfect? Of course not. That is why God says He will correct them rightly or justly. But they will stand! I especially like this ESV translation of Amos 9.

“I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them,” says Yehovah your God.” Amos 9:15 ESV

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Disturbing the Peace?

5 02 2026

What ever happened to “disturbing the peace”? Minneapolis protests make a lot of noise. What if they gave fines to anyone disturbing the peace? Horns honking, whistles blowing, banging on pans, cursing, and amplified bull horns does not sound peaceful. Regardless of the cause of the day, shouldn’t the police enforce noise ordinances? Our traditional laws and guidelines have been unenforced to such a degree that we really don’t have laws anymore. Lawlessness is threatening our peace. A simple noise ordinance enforced would go a long way in returning peace to our streets.

“Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.” Matthew 23:28 “And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12

These are the words of Jesus. Virtue signaling is revealed by the lawlessness that is part of the package. Our constitution guarantees the right of peaceful assembly, but when you remove the peaceful part you step into lawlessness. Civil disobedience is accepted but submits to arrest and consequences. Today’s “protestors” are rebellious rioters and violators of the peace. But there is a further point here. Disturbing the peace is also an attack on the spiritual promises of peace given by God. He promises perfect peace.

​“Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in. ​​You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. ​​Trust in Yehovah forever, ​​For in YAH, Yehovah, is everlasting strength.” Isaiah 26:2-4

The phrase “perfect peace” in English is quite revealing in the original Hebrew. It is shalom, shalom! The word shalom is repeated. The English translators chose to render it as “perfect peace.” I like to think of it as shalom squared or shalom times shalom. Either way, it is an extraordinary peace. When our culture breaks down into lawlessness, many are disturbed and may even lose their peace out of fear and confusion. But our God promised us His perfect peace even in the storms of life. It is known by believers as a supernatural calm or peace even in hard times. Doreen and I experienced that peace when our house burned down in 2001.

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

I have my own paraphrase of peace that surpasses understanding. I call it peace that doesn’t make sense. When the circumstances justify losing it, but you have this inner calm, this knowing that God is with you no matter what. Logically you should freak out, but the Holy Spirit of God says: “It will be okay. I saw this coming, and I have a plan for you!” Hallelujah! I hope you have found this peace in the Messiah Yeshua.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and especially for our leaders to hear from God, have courage, and do the right thing regarding Iran.

American Defense Strategy Revealed

29 01 2026

(This post is quoted from an Israeli Analyst, Guy Bechor, reporting on the new (Jan. 23) US Department of War global strategy. I don’t usually quote this much but it is so good, you need to read it. Israel’s favor is Biblically significant for God’s blessing on America.) Link to full report.

After months of preparation, the U.S. Department of War has released its “American Defense Strategy.” The 2026 U.S. Defense Strategy, rooted in the doctrine of “Flexible Realism,” establishes a clear and uncompromising hierarchy of global alliances. This strategy abandons previous “democratization” efforts in favor of raw national interest and a return to 19th-century-style power politics.  

1. The Model Ally: Israel: Israel occupies a unique and exclusive position at the top of the American strategic pyramid.  

• Exclusive Designation: Israel is the only nation in the world defined as a “Defense Ally”.  

• Model of Self-Reliance: It is praised as a “model ally” because it is both willing and able to defend itself, particularly noted after the events of October 7.  

• Guaranteed Support: The doctrine explicitly states that a strong Israel makes America stronger; therefore, the U.S. will empower Israel further, including supporting Israeli territorial requirements for its defense.  

• Unprecedented Credit: Israel is mentioned 10 times with high admiration, more than any other U.S. partner.  

2. The Stagnant Allies: Europe and NATO: The document shifts significant responsibility away from the U.S. and onto European nations, which are viewed as declining powers.  

• The 5% Requirement: To maintain U.S. support, European allies are now expected to spend 5% of their GDP on defense (3.5% for core military and 1.5% for related security).  

• Local Leadership: Europe is expected to take the lead on threats in its own region with only “limited” U.S. support, as the U.S. prioritizes the American homeland and the deterrence of China.  

3. The Partners: Qatar, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia: In a stark departure from media narratives, these nations have been downgraded to a secondary tier.  

• Lack of Recognition: Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia receive zero mentions by name in the foundational strategy document.  

• No Defense Guarantees: There is no mention of specialized defense pacts for Qatar or Saudi Arabia; they are expected to handle their own defense against Iran independently.  

• Tactical Relationships: Any cooperation with these regimes is purely tactical and interest-based, with no commitment to their specific leadership or “human rights” norms.  

4. The Omitted: The Palestinians: The document signals a total removal of the Palestinian issue from the American strategic defense map.  

• Zero Mentions: While once a centerpiece of U.S. Middle East policy, the Palestinians are not mentioned even once in the strategy.  

5. The Rivals: China and Russia: The strategy handles major powers through deterrence rather than existential conflict.  

• China (24 mentions): Defined as the primary rival. The goal is a “reasonable peace” that prevents Chinese dominance without seeking regime change or total war.  

• Russia (10 mentions): Viewed as a persistent but “manageable” threat that is currently incapable of achieving European hegemony.  (Israeli Analyst, Guy Bechor)

“I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:2-3

We continue to pray for President Trump and PM Netanyahu to hear from God and have the courage to do the right thing. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Israel is the key!

Jerusalem is Surrounded

22 01 2026

The attention of the nations is directed to Jerusalem more than ever. Yet Yehovah God sits enthroned in the heavens above man’s petty plans. Man sees wars, religion, economic trade, political controversy and just problems in general. But above this God has a purpose from before creation to raise up a people and a nation for His own name. He chose them for blessing, not only for themselves, but for the nations. The enemy has fought against His plan from the Garden of Eden. Will Satan win? Of course not! Through all this God has been calling and reaching out to humans to enter into relationship with Him. Therefore He will not give up. He will protect His investment. This is what He says in Scripture.

“Those who trust in Yehovah are like Mount Zion, ​​which cannot be moved, but abides forever. ​​As the mountains surround Jerusalem, ​​So Yehovah surrounds His people ​​from this time forth and forever.” Psalm 124:1-2

Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together, where the tribes go up, the tribes of Yehovah, to the Testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yehovah.” Psalm 122:3-4,

“Yehovah builds up Jerusalem; He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.” Psalm 147:2

“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—​​From whence comes my help? ​​My help comes from Yehovah, ​​Who made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1-2

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Unilateral, Unconditional, Guaranteed Promise

15 01 2026

Controversy is swirling around Israel’s right to exist. There are even those on the political right to have turned against Israel. I have friends asking me why they should care about Israel. The answer is in the nature of Yehovah God. He made unique promises through Abraham to Israel that are unconditional. We normally think of a covenant as a two-way agreement. But God’s promise to Abraham was unconditional. It did not depend on man’s obedience. It was a one-way promise. You can argue with God about why He blessed and chose Israel, but that is between you and Him. The covenant is already enacted, sealed, and delivered! It will not change because God does not change. He cannot lie. His righteous character backs up His promises.

On the same day Yehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates”  Genesis 15:18

Joel Richardson recently shared this concept on Facebook: “The Abrahamic Covenant is a unilateral, unconditional, guaranteed promise from God to give the children of Israel the promised land forever. Participation in that promise, of course, does require faith (in YHVH and His Messiah), which God also unconditionally promises to impart into the hearts of the children of Israel.”

“Moreover the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.” Deuteronomy 30:6
“For I will take you from the nations, gather you from all the lands and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances. You will live in the land that I gave to your forefathers; so you will be My people, and I will be your God.”  Ezekiel 36:24–28
“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares the Lord. But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord, “I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares the Lord, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”  Jeremiah 31:31–34
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Decision Time

8 01 2026

While Americans are consumed with news about Venezuela and Minnesota something profound is happening in Iran and Gaza. I believe the first two months of 2026 will witness major prophetic events. Of course the Western hemisphere is important, but let’s focus on the Middle East. The Egypt/Gaza border is about to open, releasing over a million Gaza civilians to flee the war zone for the first time. This will lead to Israel disarming and finally defeating Hamas. At the same time, Iran is on the brink and will finally have regime change. Demonstrations now involve over 130 cities and growing, with reports of even military and security forces defecting. Multiple sources are reporting that the Ayatollah has plans to escape to Russia. Decisions are being made in Jerusalem, Washington, Venezuela, Iran, and many places that will prove to be the fulfillment of God’s plan. It is exciting to be alive at this time to pray in agreement with God.

“Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yehovah is near in the valley of decision. The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will diminish their brightness. Yehovah also will roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem; the heavens and earth will shake; But Yehovah will be a shelter for His people, and the strength of the children of Israel.”  Joel 3:14-16

There have been specific times in history where Yehovah God Himself intervenes to fulfill His prophetic promises. I refer to those times as God “turning the page.” This is such a time. Above human events there is a Divine moment where God’s hand touches earth. Just as Peter recognized Pentecost as: “This is that” which was prophesied by Joel, we are in a “this is that” moment. Last Sunday I spoke at Grace Assembly of God in Wake Forest on the subject: “It’s Time to Turn the Page!” (Here is the video link. Scroll down halfway and the message starts at 37 min.) Don’t miss the time of God’s visitation. Do you see His hand, or are you fearfully only seeing man’s feeble rebellion? As the cliche goes: “I have read the end of the Book. We win!”

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the momentous decisions by nations, leaders, and by people.

Wisdom for 2026

1 01 2026

Enjoy a shared bit of wisdom for the new year from my wife, Doreen (wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother):

Is setting goals a Biblical concept; or is it a matter of age? Jesus said: “Take no thought for tomorrow”. Matthew 6:34. This year I have no goal, except to take each day gratefully and obediently, knowing that His grace is sufficient. I have never had less assurance about what lies ahead except what Jesus has promised. I see through a glass darkly, but I am promised a brilliant and eternal future… 2026? Who knows? HE knows! That is enough.

“And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.’  Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  2 Corinthians 12:9

“Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”  Hebrews 13:5

“Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for Yehovah your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.”  Deuteronomy 31:6

God originally gave this promise to Joshua and two verses later emphasized: “Do not fear nor be dismayed.” We are not to fear life and events, but only to fear the Lord. He is the one who goes before us and prepares the way for us to live. Doreen is right, HE knows. Trust Him!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and especially for Gaza this week. PM Netanyahu returns to Israel today and reports say the Gaza/Egypt border may be opened after he returns home. All of this is evidence of our faithful God who keeps His promises to Israel and to each of us personally.

Hanukkah and Healing

18 12 2025

Hanukkah means more to me as a Christian Zionist that you may think. In light of the terrible terrorist murders in Australia we are reminded that darkness can never cancel the light of God. If you have a totally sealed room with no windows and a door to another room that has windows and sunlight, what happens when you open the door? Does darkness flow into the light room and make it dark? Of course not! The light floods the darkness and illuminates the sealed room. This evening the fifth light of Hanukkah is lit around the world. This is more than a tradition; it is proof of light triumphing over darkness.

This year Hanukkah and Christmas are close together. Zionist Christians not only believe the land belongs to Israel, but that there is soon coming a wonderful joining together of Jews and Christians. There has been a great wall between us (understandingly) for centuries, but a highly respected first century Rabbi spoke of the breaking down of that wall. After Paul, the apostle, embraced Yeshua as the Messiah, he stopped persecuting followers of Yeshua. He later wrote much of the New Testament. This quote speaking of “one new man” is one of my favorites.

“For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.” Ephesians 2:14-16

This same Paul also clarified something most Christians miss. The Jews are not joined into the church but the opposite. God chose Israel and planted it among the nations. Because of various judgements God scattered them in all countries. Apostle Paul explained it as some of their branches being broken off and wild Gentile branches grafted into the Israel tree. But then God restores Israel by grafting them back into their own tree. Most Christians think the church replaced Israel, but they are wrong. God promised to restore Israel and He cannot lie. We are living in this time of restoration which is manifestly evident in modern history.

“For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.”  Romans 16:18

All of the early believers were Jews and Paul warned the later Gentile believers not to be arrogant. Christians failed to heed that warning. However, I am humbled and thankful that God has grafted me into Israel. Since I am not Jewish I cannot make Aliyah or I would be living in Israel today. But I stand with Israel and support the Jewish family with all my heart. With the historic rise in antisemitism it is more important than ever that Christians speak up for Zion and God’s chosen people. Their choosing was not only for themselves, but was intended as a blessing to all the nations. That can only happen through this great prophetic time of restoration! No wonder Satan tries to destroy Israel, they are God’s choice to bless the whole world.

As the Hanukkah lights burn brightly and Christians celebrate the birth of Yeshua, God the Father is healing the nations.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! And pray for Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump that they will hear from Yehovah God, and have courage to do the right thing.

God is the #1 Zionist

11 12 2025

A Zionist is simply one who believes that God gave the land of Israel to the Jews. Yehovah God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, is the top Zionist in the universe. It is His idea and His will that Israel live on the particular geographical location He chose for them. His enemies have tried to complicate the definition, but in the end it about the land and God’s everlasting promise. You can see His love and even His zeal for Zion in this quote.

“Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ​‘​I am zealous for Zion with great zeal; ​​with great fervor I am zealous for her.’ Thus says Yehovah: ​‘​I will return to Zion, ​​and dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. ​​Jerusalem shall be called the City of Truth, ​​the Mountain of Yehovah of hosts, ​​The Holy Mountain.’ Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ​‘​Old men and old women shall again sit ​​in the streets of Jerusalem, ​​each one with his staff in his hand ​​because of great age. ​​The streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets.’ Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ​‘​If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, will it also be marvelous in My eyes?’ ​​Says Yehovah of hosts. Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ​‘​Behold, I will save My people from the land of the east and from the land of the west; ​​I will bring them back, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. ​​They shall be My people and I will be their God, in truth and righteousness.’”  Zechariah 1:1-8

Notice that this short passage tells us five specific things about God Himself.

  1. He expresses great zeal; ​​with great fervor.
  2. He will make Jerusalem His dwelling place, His home! 
  3. It will be marvelous in His eyes!
  4. He will bring His people back.
  5. They will be His people and He will be their God, in truth and righteousness.

None of this is delegated to the angels. God does it Himself with great satisfaction and joy. Yehovah reveals His heart in this chapter. He is a hands-on God! This is what He personally wants. He rejoices in performing His promise. No matter how much controversy surrounds Zionism, we must stand in agreement with God. Our own personal integrity issues from that agreement. Align your will with God’s will, even when it is hard. “Integrity is siding with God’s Word against yourself.” Anonymous.

“The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity (or duplicity) of the unfaithful will destroy them.”  Proverbs 11:3

“May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you.”  Psalm 25:21 NLT

Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

Kiss the Son? Faith Controversy

4 12 2025

The three great monotheistic world religions disagree sharply on one profound point. Is Jesus the son of God? Jews and Muslims say no. Christians say yes. Three weeks ago I wrote about Islam denying the deity of Jesus. The Koran repeatedly denies that their god has any son at all. Jews also deny that Jesus (Yeshua) is God’s son. Here are two key Old Testament quotes that clearly state that Yehovah God has a Son.

“Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, If you know?”  Proverbs 30:4

Jews (or at least the Rabbis) know Yehovah’s name but decline to say it out loud. Christians know Jesus’ name but few know that God’s covenant name is Yehovah (or Jehovah, or Yahweh). But still, Proverbs clearly refers to the Son. Another reference to the Son is in Psalm 2; where God’s Son is mentioned twice (verses 7 & 12). Rabbis do not take these verses literally. I do. The good news is that most Jews will eventually recognize Yeshua as the Messiah and God’s Son. Also, Many millions of Muslims will come to the saving knowledge of Jesus the Son.

“I will declare the decree: Yehovah has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.'” Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him. Psalm 2:7 & 12 

Notice that verse 12 ends with blessing on all who trust Him! Likewise, Proverbs also follows the declaration of Sonship with a blessing for those who trust in Him, in verse 5.

“Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.”  Proverbs 30:5

Trust God, believe in His Son. Kiss the Son, worship Him; and Yehovah will be your shield!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

The Hidden Truth of Giving Thanks

27 11 2025

Gratitude is the key to loving God. Most folks don’t understand how critical a lifestyle of THANKS-giving is for their relationship to God and others. On this Thanksgiving Day I’m reminded of the Bible’s point of view. Thankfulness starts as the DOORWAY to His Prescence, by acknowledging God is our source.

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.”  Psalm 100:4

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.”  James 1:17

“Rejoice always, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”  1 Thessalonians 5:16-17

Finally, there is a remarkable warning about failing to be thankful. Paul included thankfulness in his explanation for the effect of a reprobate mind. While warning about rebellion from God, he adds an ominous connection between rebellion and not being thankful!

“For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, NOR WERE THANKFUL, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.”  Romans 1:20-21

“Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused.”  Romans 1:21 NLT

So, let us be thankful, for as Dave Ramsey always says: “We are blessed, more than we deserve.”

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

The Trillion Dollar Peace Deal

20 11 2025

When the Saudi Crown Prince met President Trump this week he committed to a trillion dollar investment in the Unites States. How does this apply to Biblical prophecy? It follows the UN agreement to Trump’s 20 point peace plan for Gaza. I believe it fits with a season of extraordinary peace for Israel. The Gog and Magog war of Ezekiel 38 occurs at a time of great peace for Israel when they have taken down their walls, have no bars or gates, and enjoy true peace and security all around. This reality requires great relations with their adjacent neighbors. How do we get to that point? Trump’s plan must work, and Saudi Arabia is key. Few believe they will join in that peace, but Scripture indicates they will. That is what I believe, not skeptical media reports.

Where Are the Arab Countries in Ezekiel 38?

Bible prophecy makes a compelling case by comparing Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38. Both describe wars and both list the countries attacking Israel by name. Psalm 83 predicts the initial attacks of 1948 lasting decades. The countries named are all adjacent to Israel. However, the Ezekiel war lists countries that circle outside those adjacent Arab countries. So, what happens to those Arab states? They are not mentioned in Ezekiel. That is because they have made peace with Israel after 80 years! None of them have attacked for years. Only the terrorists remain and they are about finished. Trump’s plan finishes them. After that Israel enters an extended time of peace to the point that they completely let down their guard. The peace would need to be so good for a length of time before they would be willing to trust their Arab neighbors.

“You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’— to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.”  Ezekiel 38:11-12

Isaiah also describes this time of peace where Egypt and Assyria (Syria and Lebanon) are finally at peace with Israel. All adjacent Arab neighbors will be working together with Israel. This sure sounds to me like the Abraham Accords.

“In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will serve with the Assyrians. In that day Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the land, whom Yehovah of hosts shall bless, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.”  Isaiah 19:23-25

Even Turkey agreed to Trump’s plan. That fits with the Gog and Magog war being delayed a considerable time. Let us view current events in line with God’s plan. In the end I do not rely on the Trump plan unless it coincides with God’s plan. So far, so good!

Pray for His will to be accomplished for Israel and the Arabs alike, that many will turn to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and recognize the Messiah Yeshua, Jesus our Messiah and Son of God! Pray for the leaders to hear from God, have courage, and do the right thing. And always pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Quick Guide to Islam

13 11 2025

We do NOT worship the same God.

Islam’s god is not a Father and has no son.

Islam’s god is not Yehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, if you know? Proverbs 30:4

The god of the Quran commands your son to die for him.

The Living God of the Bible sent His Son to die for you.

Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 1 John 2:22

Choose life in Jesus!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and wisdom for the leaders.

Pregnant Prophecy Transition Time

6 11 2025

What if you were alive when epic prophecy fulfillments were happening and you didn’t notice? That is exactly what happened when Messiah Yeshua first came, and most of Israel did not recognize Him And it is happening again now. Those who are seeing now are both ecstatic and frustrated at the same time. We who have eyes to see are thrilled to see God’s promises unfolding right before our eyes today. Yet, it is so frustrating that most are oblivious to the extraordinary Biblical moment in which we are living. God’s timeline has proceeded for 6,000 years and we are now on the threshold of the final chapter of history. We are in the Biblical timing of the last transition. All the grand themes of the Bible are converging in our day! Indeed, promises pending are like pregnancy and birth. It is transition time! (For clarity please refer to my January article: “This is That!” with more specific examples.)

“Surely the Lord Yehovah does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord Yehovah has spoken! Who can but prophesy?”  Amos 3:7

Here are five awesome fulfillments you need to recognize that are converging at this time of history. These are big picture trends confirmed by the detailed prophesies referenced in my January post.

  1. Restoration of Israel – Ezekiel is one of many prophets who saw the miraculous resurrection of Israel at the end, complete with regathering to their own land, forgiveness of sin, and a new heart. Ezekiel 36:24-28
  2. Rise of Islam – This religion combines the political and religious principalities as the antichrist system that opposes the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The election of a Marxist/Muslim mayor of New York is the latest example. Also see the remarkable changes in the UK with over 200 Muslims in the government. Islam denies that God is a Father. “Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.”  1 John 2:22
  3. Revelation – Amos (above) tells us God will reveal His plans. Also the “thief in the night” passage clearly states that believers will see because they are not in the dark. 1 Thessalonians 5:1-9
  4. Rebellion – The identity crisis in today’s youth exposes a core selfishness. Cosplay, where everyone dresses up wildly but then assumes that identity, shows the confusion facing this generation. All ages are caught up in this self-love revealed prophetically.  2 Timothy 3
  5. Revival – Believers are now seeing a great awakening to Jesus, especially among young people since the Charlie Kirk assassination and martyrdom. “Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!”  John 4:35

“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.”  Matthew 24:14

Did God cancel Israel because they missed the Messiah 2,000 years ago? Or, did He instead judge them severely by scattering them among the nations TEMORARILY until a final restoration? There is a critical Bible doctrine on which most last day prophecy hinges. This false heretical doctrine of cancellation is called “replacement theology.” which is simply stated: “Israel has been permanently replaced in God’s plan by the church.” The entire Bible refutes that heresy. Ironically, Tucker Carlson had the audacity and ignorance to call the truth of God’s promise to Israel as the heresy. To his defense, the replacement error is firmly in the DNA of Christian theology from the Second Century. I pray that Tucker will open his Bible and see this wonderful time of Israel’s restoration.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and revelation of the Messiah to all who love the truth!

Biblical Zionism

31 10 2025

Words matter. Last week I wrote about “the F-word.” Today my word is Zionism. There are many confusing ideas about Zionism. For antisemites it is an evil thing like the F-word. For others it means total and uncritical support of all things Israel, even the government. For some it is a political movement supporting the Israeli right to exist. But I call myself a Christian Zionist because my foundation is the whole Bible. I am a Biblical Zionist who happens to be a Christian. The genealogy of Jesus dates from the beginning in Genesis where Eve is told that a Savior will come from her seed. Later He extended the promise specifically through the seed of three men, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. When Jacob’s name was changed to Israel a nation was born. Israel was formed, not to limit salvation to the Jews, but as the incubator of the Messiah who is Jewish. He is Savior to all who follow Him, both Jew and Gentile. God made many unconditional promises to Israel including that they would be an “everlasting” Kingdom. He would keep His word even when they sinned and failed because God cannot lie. A Biblical Zionist does not worship Israel, but the faithful God who promised. Israel is living proof that Yehovah God keeps His word. Therefore, I trust Him with all the promises of Messiah Yeshua as my personal Savior. If God lied about Israel, how could we trust what He says about Jesus? 

For Yehovah has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: “This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.”  Psalm 132:13-14

“Hear the word of Yehovah, O nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him as a shepherd does his flock.’ “ Jeremiah 31:10

“Fear not, for I am with you; ​​I will bring your descendants from the east, ​​ and gather you from the west; ​​I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ ​​and to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’ ​​Bring My sons from afar, ​​ and My daughters from the ends of the earth—”  Isaiah 43:5-6

Tucker Carlson Accuses Christian Zionists of Heresy: ‘I Dislike Them More Than Anybody’ – “Mike Huckabee … and other non-Jewish Republicans among those who believe in Christian Zionism, which he called a church “heresy.” He added that those who believe in it are “seized with some kind of brain virus,” and said, “I am offended by that as a Christian.” Huckabee responded in a post on X, writing, “Wasn’t aware that Tucker despises me. I do get that a lot from people not familiar with the Bible or history. Somehow, I will survive the animosity.” Huckabee also said: ” I was so hurt by Carlson I had to take 1/2 a baby aspirin to sleep that night.” 

Tucker Carlson calls Christian Zionism ‘brain virus & heresy’ during interview with avowed antisemite Fuentes – Former Fox News host and analyst Tucker Carlson continued his descent into rank antisemitism on Tuesday, publishing an interview with far-right podcaster Nick Fuentes, who has engaged in open holocaust denial and praised Hitler in the past.

“Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, the hills, the rivers, and the valleys, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy and My fury, because you have borne the shame of the nations.” Therefore thus says the Lord Yehovah: “I have raised My hand in an oath that surely the nations that are around you shall bear their own shame. But you, O mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to My people Israel, for they are about to come. For indeed I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown. I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt. I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bear young; I will make you inhabited as in former times, and do better for you than at your beginnings. Then you shall know that I am Yehovah.”  Ezekiel 36:6-11

Are you a Bible believer? Zion occurs 160 times in the Bible. Israel occurs 2,570 times in the Bible.

Hallelujah! God is keeping His word to His people in this time of restoration. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and abundant rains this season.

What If the F-word is Worse Than You Think?

23 10 2025

The F-word has exploded in our culture including even used by some Christians. Even President Trump recently used that word publicly, which inspired this article. What if using that word is giving your voice to demons? Some say the word itself, but others use acronyms such as: WTF “what the f”, M-F “mother-f”, and the newest usage, Fafo “F around and find out”. Don’t be deceived. There is a demonic evil spirt at play no matter how you voice it or write it. What if giving voice to that word is a demonic form of speaking in tongues? Could the devil be saying something in the spiritual dimension more than you mean to say? Using your voice and authority? What we confess with our mouth has supernatural power. Which power are you speaking?

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” Proverbs 18:21

“For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”  Romans 10:10

“But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.”  1 Timothy 6:11-12

“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”  Hebrews 10:24

I believe the Holy Spirit gave me this word, and I told my brother Ken about it. He said he heard the same word a week ago. Neither of us have heard that from anyone else. I take it seriously.

Also, I heard a word about gossip. What if “conspiracy theories” fell under the category of gossip? The internet is rife with unending theories about every event which get lots of “clicks.” Candace Owens comes to mind. The apostle Paul listed wicked sins in Romans 1 and you may be shocked that gossip is included with the worst sins like hate and murder.

“Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and gossip.”  Romans 1:29

Please prayerfully consider the words that come out of our own mouth. Are we confessing Jesus and His life and His salvation? Or, our we giving voice and text to a completely different spirit. Repent and change. Stop using it. And pray that our leaders will likewise be convicted and repent.

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Yehovah, my strength and my Redeemer.”  Psalm 19:14

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and that our leaders will hear from God, have courage, and do the right thing.

Looking Down at the Peace Deal

16 10 2025

Understanding the Gaza peace agreement depends on your perspective. The most common error made by Christians analyzing news is forgetting our place. We are not restricted to only an earthly view. On the contrary, we have the unique privilege of seeing the news from Heaven’s balcony. If we only see from man’s view we miss what God is doing in the events. He has a purpose. He sees the end from the beginning. Knowing the Bible and listening to the Holy Spirit, we can see what others cannot.

“But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,”  Ephesians 2:4-6

While my body is still on this earth, my spirit man is seated in Heaven with Jesus! That is why we can “look down” on earthly news. So will this Gaza peace deal hold? Yes, because it is part of God’s purpose as I have often referenced Amos 1:6-7. This is the fourth Gaza war in 20 years. My view is that God plans for a time of peace in Israel for this next season years. Teaching from Psalm 102, Psalm 83, and Ezekiel 38, and other passages has shown me an understanding of these present times.  I like to say: “If you desire to understand God, you must learn to stand under Him.” One of my life verses is this great description of the Biblical tribe of Issachar.

“of the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their command;”  1 Chronicles 12:32

This level of understanding is possible because we can hear from God. We can pray for “eyes to see and ears to hear.” If believers don’t listen and hear God then we are no different from unbelievers. The older I get the more amazed I am that God is very much involved in current events. He is the ultimate “promise keeper.” Every word He has spoken in the Bible will come to pass. We can trust Him and even more wonderful, we can hear His voice in the Bible and by His Spirit which agree one hundred per cent of the time.

Please pray for me as I am working on new booklet that will outline the present Biblical timeline in a simple format. It will summarize the Biblical view of current events. This Gaza agreement is right on schedule, even if more fighting will be necessary to enforce the disarming of Hamas. Hamas will be eliminated from any future in Gaza. In addition, as I said last week, I see many Arabs coming to Jesus!

Please pray for the true peace of Jerusalem, Yeshua Sar Shalom, Jesus Prince of Peace.

They Shall Proclaim the Praises of Yehovah

9 10 2025

We all rejoice in the peace agreement for Gaza this week, but what follows? I maintain that there will be a time of extraordinary peace between the Psalm 83 war and the Ezekiel 38 war of Gog & Magog. What if I told you that millions of Arabs would find salvation in Jesus and gladly become pro-Israel and join the Abraham Accords?

Since 1948 Israel has been under attack from their Arab neighbors listed by country in Psalm 83. That comes to an end with the surrender of Hamas. Yet Israelis will certainly take awhile to tear down the walls and accept complete belief in the relief offered by genuine peace. This is not the anti-Christ peace, but a period described in Ezekiel 38, who used seven different phrases stipulating the conditions of real peace being enjoyed by Israel before the Gog invasion (which, again, lists the names of the countries involved).

It is during this period that Arabs/Palestinians will turn to Jesus. Isaiah 19 ends with an amazing relationship between Egypt, Israel, and Syria which specifically includes Egyptians worshipping Yehovah.

“In that day there will be an altar to Yehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to Yehovah at its border. And it will be for a sign and for a witness to Yehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to Yehovah because of the oppressors, and He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them. Then Yehovah will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know Yehovah in that day, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to Yehovah and perform it.”  Isaiah 19:19-21

But what about Saudi Arabia, you may ask? I believe they will also find our Messiah’s salvation. It is already clear to most that they will very soon be joining the Abraham Accords. But there is evidence in Isaiah’s prophecy that they will also worship Yehovah God. Last week I quoted the Zechariah promise that there would be Palestinians “who remain” in Israel (after the Hamas Gaza defeat) who would worship the God of Israel. In addition, there is the evidence for Saudi Arabia. Note that each of the five geographically named areas are all in Saudi Arabia!

“Then you shall see and become radiant, and your heart shall swell with joy; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, the wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you. The multitude of camels shall cover your land, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all those from Sheba shall come; they shall bring gold and incense, and they shall proclaim the praises of Yehovah. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together to you, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to you; They shall ascend with acceptance on My altar, and I will glorify the house of My glory.”  Isaiah 60:5-7

This may be a stretch for you, but open your heart to the possibilities of our merciful Savior!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for the salvation of Jews and Arabs alike!

The End Result of the 20 Point Peace Plan

1 10 2025

This peace plan is on target for God’s plan for the Palestinians. For several weeks I have been posting about the end of the Gaza War. Amos 1:6-7 declares this fourth Gaza war in 20 years will end with God’s punishment after it was deferred for the first three wars. (See: Final Push Into Gaza) But the most exciting verse is in the second part of Zechariah 9:7. It reveals that after Gaza is conquered there will be survivors who will join Israel. (Note: We know there is no DNA connection between Philistines and Palestinians, but it the same ancient demonic principality and methods.) I believe this verse prophetically speaks of today.

“Then the surviving Philistines will worship our God and become like a clan in Judah. The Philistines of Ekron will join my people, as the ancient Jebusites once did.”  Zechariah 9:7b NLT

This indicates that these “surviving” Palestinians will be saved and accepted into Israel (See: Clan Plan Confirmed by Scripture) Zechariah finishes with them joining Israel as the ancient Jebusites did. 

  • The verse indicates a future transformation where the Philistines will abandon their former ways and join the worship of the God of Israel.
  • This joining is likened to the Jebusites, who eventually became part of the Israelite community after King David’s conquest of Jebusite Jerusalem.
  • The phrase suggests a significant change in identity and allegiance for the Philistines, moving from enemies to worshippers of God.
  • The comparison to the Jebusites highlights theme of redemption, showing that even former adversaries can become part of God’s people.

This concept is further confirmed by Isaiah: “Also the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to Yehovah, to serve Him, and to love the name of Yehovah, to be His servants— Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and holds fast My covenant— Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on My altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.” The Lord Yehovah, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, “Yet I will gather to him Others besides those who are gathered to him.” Isaiah 56:6-8

This is confirmed directly by Jesus: “Then He taught, saying to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’ ”  Mark 11:17

It is so easy to get caught up in the news and lose sight of God’s promises. But I believe He is proceeding right on schedule to fulfill His Word. The land title has been gifted to Israel by God, and will not be revoked.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Yehovah’s Kingdom to come through Yeshua our Messiah!

The Creator God is Faithful to Israel

25 09 2025

The Creator has revealed Himself in many ways. He is the only true God and can be seen in all He has created. He is also revealed in the written word…the Holy Scriptures. Among all the ways of revelation however, there remains a particularly clear unveiling of the faithful God. He is revealed in His relationship with one land and one specific people: Israel, His sign to the whole world.

          This is not to deny His loving relationship with all peoples who will seek Him. All of God’s activities in the entire earth are derived from the critical fact of His own character: faithfulness! Thus, how God views Israel over the course of history, shows the standard of integrity issuing directly from His own character. This is of utmost importance, first to the people of Israel and then to all the other nations that are destined to be included. The biblical analogy is of one plant with branches broken off, wild branches grafted into the original plant, and finally some of the broken off branches being grafted back into the same planting.

          Even the scripture record itself, with the great promise of salvation through the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) and all the other Bible promises, does not stand alone! The veracity or truthfulness of the written word is only as sure as the truthful character of the author. The source of the Bible’s authority is the Person of Yehovah who reveals Himself through the awesome process of many writers over many centuries of time. But if God lies or breaks His word in any way, then the basis of believing is lost. The word of a liar is worthless. But God only speaks truth, because God is truth!

          God’s power is manifested in creation but His faithful nature is particularly confirmed in Israel. Israel’s existence is as certain as the fixed laws of the universe. God is raising up Israel out of the sea of nations in prophetic fulfillment of His eternal purpose. GOD IS FAITHFUL!

“Thus says Yehovah, who gives the sun for a light by day, the ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, who disturbs the sea, and its waves roar (Yehovah of hosts is His name): If those ordinances depart from before Me, says Yehovah, then the seed of Israel shall also cease
From being a nation before Me forever.”  Jeremiah 31:35-36

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! And pray especially this week that President Trump will hear from God in this critical moment of nations roaring.

Archeology Breakthrough

18 09 2025

Marco Rubio and Bibi Netanyahu literally broke through the last rocks of the pilgrimage road from the Pool of Siloam to the Temple Mount this past week! This ancient road proves Israeli sovereignty over the land of Israel and its capital, Jerusalem. One of the high points of the joint visit by Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Secretary of State Rubio and their wives was to the City of David in Jerusalem, where the historic pilgrims’ road, from the Siloam Pool to the Temple was revealed for the first time.

Here is a great video from Ambassador Mike Huckabee – Incredible event as we were first in 2000 yrs to go from pilgrimage road to Temple Mount.

“Then Yehovah appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” And there he built an altar to Yehovah, who had appeared to him.”  Genesis 12:7

Remember the promise God gave to Abram. It was to him and his descendants. God clearly specified later that the promise was only to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It was the same covenant that said from Abram’s seed would come the Messiah! God’s promise is being kept today in Israel. Hallelujah!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Charlie Kirk – One Kernel of Wheat

11 09 2025

The one Bible verse that speaks to the martyrdom of Charlie Kirk was spoken by Jesus concerning His own pending death. Martyrdom for the faith is part of every generation since. Satan did not stop with killing the Messiah, he continues to attack believers. Most of us never face physical martyrdom but have made the choice to lay down our lives for the Savior. It is the “way” of discipleship. We are called to follow Jesus. Charlie Kirk was a follower of Jesus, but became a leader of a generation. My prayer is that his one kernel of wheat will produce literally millions of Jesus people.

“I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives. Those who love their life in this world will lose it. Those who care nothing for their life in this world will keep it for eternity. Anyone who wants to be my disciple must follow me, because my servants must be where I am. And the Father will honor anyone who serves me.”  John 12:24-26 NLT

From the first New Testament martyr Stephen, to yesterday’s martyr Charlie Kirk, the Gospel message is reproducing. Death for believers always ends with resurrection. Jesus was raised and sits at the right hand of Yehovah God. Charlie has joined Him. But the fruit that will come, cannot be counted yet.

I pray that a supernatural phenomena will sweep over TikTok and all social media. Millions of young internet addicts are hearing of Charlie Kirk for the first time. I pray that because of curiosity they will find Charlie’s videos and start binge watching to the point of conversion to faith in the Messiah Yeshua!

What action can we take? We are compelled by the Holy Spirit to speak up. This is not the way of cowards. Do you think believers will slink back in this hour? I think not!

  1. Pray for Charlie’s family and followers.
  2. Ask the Holy Spirit what you should do.
  3. Look for opportunities to speak truth in love.
  4. Talk to your family about Jesus.
  5. Engage with your neighbors, friends, and colleagues.
  6. Volunteer at church or for any godly cause.
  7. Activate your faith!

No more sitting on the sidelines. Get up and join the fight!

“A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm.”  Ephesians 6:10-13 NLT

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the United States!
