BREAKING: Great news! President Trump has just recognized Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights which Israel annexed in 1981. This is a similar bombshell recognition as the US declaring Jerusalem is Israel’s capital and moving our Embassy there.

“After 52 years it is time for the United States to fully recognize Israel’s Sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which is of critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability!,” Tweeted 12:50 PM (on Purim) by President Trump, Thursday March 21, 2-19.

Netanyahu to Trump: You performed a Purim miracle – In a joint press conference with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Netanyahu called Trump’s announcement a “Purim miracle.” “President Trump has just made history,” Netanyahu said. “I called him. I thanked him on behalf of the people of Israel. He did it again,” Netanyahu observed. “First he recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moved the embassy here. Then he pulled out of the disastrous Iran treaty and reimposed sanctions. But now he did something of equal historic importance: he recognized Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights.” (INN)

Trump recognizes Golan to counter Iran’s first steps for annexing Lebanon to Syria – US President Donald Trump’s declared recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan on Thursday, March 21, had a time-sensitive object, unconnected to the Israeli election or Binyamin Netanyahu’s run for reelection, as his rivals contended. DEBKAfile’s military and intelligence sources reveal that it was an arrow aimed by the US president at Iran, Syria, Iraq and Hizballah, (Debka file)

Trump: Time for U.S. to ‘Fully Recognize’ Israel’s Sovereignty over Golan Heights – TEL AVIV — Marking a monumental shift in U.S. policy that would help ensure Israel’s security into the future, President Donald Trump on Thursday declared that the time has come for America to “fully recognize” Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. (Brietbart Jerusalem)

Israel: Trump’s announcement ‘brave and historic‘ – PM, Ministers, and political parties praise US President for calling for recognition of Israel’s sovereignty on the Golan Heights. (INN)

What a great day for Israel. Hallelujah! I believe this verse is true about President Donald J. Trump: “For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14

Yes, really. Israel is sending a lunar lander to the moon and blast-off is this month. It will take two or three months before the landing. Israel will be the fourth nation to the moon after the US, Russia, and China. But the big news, is that it’s a private company, not the Israeli government doing it.

SPACE IL – FIRST ISRAELI SPACECRAFT ON THE MOON    SpaceIL’s spacecraft will launch as a secondary payload on a SPACEX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida and land on the Moon about two months later.

First Private Lunar Spacecraft Shoots for the Moon – The moon’s next visitor is different. SpaceIL’s Beresheet — Hebrew for “In the Beginning” — will become the first privately funded mission to launch from Earth and land on the moon, and the first spacecraft to propel itself over the lunar surface after landing by “hopping” on its rocket engine to a second landing spot.

Please click on the above links to enjoy more details. This is just another example of Yehovah God’s favor on Israel. I think it’s great that the name of the lander is: Beresheet — Hebrew for “In the Beginning” Notice the bold parts of this quote from Genesis.

​”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

Pray for the success of this mission and for rain in Israel and for the peace of Jerusalem!

(Why  do I use God’s literal covenant Name: Yehovah? Here is a link to the best simple explanation I know, from my friend, Keith Johnson. Also, here is a link to my book which explains it in detail, The Hebrew God Who Has No Name.)

You glance at this flyer and assume it is from the 1930’s, but it was distributed in Newton, Massachusetts on Sunday January 13, 2019. Last year saw a rise in anti-Semitic hate in the U.S. and around the world. Please don’t be ignorant of this alarming trend. Pray for the Jewish people, and pray for Israel. The root of this hate is from the Evil One.

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12

This is not fake news, but is fully reported from credible sources. It really is happening, in the context of rising socialism, Marxism, and Islamic jihadism. Here is the documentation.

Massachusetts fliers accuse Jews of spreading ‘degeneracy’ – Anti-Semitic fliers in Newton, Massachusetts show devil-horned Jewish caricature, accuses Jews of pushing ‘pornography and degeneracy’.

Antisemitic flyers in Newton – Police in Newton are investigating after messages of hate were found across the city.

Antisemitic incidents in US soar – 2-27-18 Antisemitic incidents in the US surged 57% in 2017, the Anti-Defamation League said on Tuesday, the largest year-on-year increase since the Jewish civil rights group began collecting data in 1979.

Rising antisemitism worldwide boils over at Pittsburgh synagogue – 10-28-18 Deadliest assault on Jews in US history follows 57% increase in antisemitic incidents in 2017.

The Synagogue Killings Mark a Surge of Anti-Semitism – In 2016, more than half of religious hate crimes in America targeted Jews, and in 2017, authorities have reported a surge of anti-Semitic incidents.

Europe’s rising anti-Semitism demands a new social contract – “The Jews,” as in “All Jews must die” — the phrase that the far right Pittsburgh shooting suspect Robert Bowers allegedly shouted as he shot at the worshippers in the Tree of Life Synagogue — disregards the diversity of the Jewish people. Whether religious, cultural or political, the only thing that mattered was that they belonged to the Jewish people. … In recent years, we have seen that this effortlessly shifts into ancient anti-Semitic motifs, especially in Europe, and singles out Jewish collectivity from all peoples on earth.

Again it must be clear that this is beyond political or racist hatred. It is against Yehovah God Himself and His purpose for this earth and His creation. This is directly stated in Psalm 83. Notice the underlined pronouns speaking directly to God.

Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies? Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up? They devise crafty schemes against your people; they conspire against your precious ones. “Come,” they say, “let us wipe out Israel as a nation. We will destroy the very memory of its existence.” Yes, this was their unanimous decision. They signed a treaty as allies against you. Psalm 83:2-5

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and thank Yehovah for the rain and snow now falling.

Four people attended this prayer meeting, and three fell asleep. Yet, history was made in the outcome! Eight words were spoken that changed the course of humanity. The curse of Satan was reversed by these eight words: “Not MY will, but THY will be done!”

My devotional of Thursday morning last week in Kenya, to 2,600 young people and pastors, was a challenge to join with Jesus in making the same declaration in our own lives. Satan had set the tone in his rebellion in Heaven by insisting on his own will over Yehovah’s will five times, as revealed in Isaiah’s prophecy:

​“How you are fallen from heaven, ​​O Lucifer, son of the morning! ​​How you are cut down to the ground, ​​you who weakened the nations! ​​For you have said in your heart: ​​

‘I will ascend into heaven, ​​

I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; ​​

I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; ​​

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, ​​

I will be like the Most High.’ ​​

Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit. Isaiah 14:12-15

Three times Jesus asked the Father for another way, but each time concluded with His passionate confession in eight words that reversed history: “Not MY will, but THY will be done!”

Jesus was tempted to not go through with the Plan, but did not yield to that temptation, even resisting the temptation to the point of blood. The stress resulted in the bursting of capillaries in His skin releasing blood through His sweat glands.

As we remember the birth of Jesus this year, take note that God became flesh and dwelt among us. He was clothed with our human flesh and weakness, but overcame it!

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Hebrews 4:15

Merry Christmas! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

Israel Ready to Reoccupy Gaza, Warns Minister The latest round of fighting in Gaza might be over, for now, but Internal Security Minister Gilad Erdan warned that Israel is prepared to recapture and reoccupy the coastal enclave in order to root out Hamas and its terrorist allies should the situation escalate again. Israel Today

About 15 years ago my friend, John Fisk, and I compiled a teaching about Gaza which is being fulfilled year by year since then. We saw pertinent Scripture promises that applied then, and even more so now. The fifth stage may be imminent. Here are the five stages and the text from Zephaniah that applies to the last stage when Judah returns to Gaza. It seems to be taken right out of today’s (and tomorrow’s) headlines.

The Five Stages of Gaza’s Judgment

1. A Wall is Built around Gaza.
2. Judah (Israel) withdraws.
3. Chaos overtakes Gaza.
4. Gaza is destroyed by fire.
5. Judah (Israel) returns to Gaza.

The seacoast shall be pastures, with shelters for shepherds and folds for flocks. ​​The coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed their flocks there; in the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down at evening. For Yehovah their God will intervene for them, and return their captives. Zephaniah 2:6-7

The final stage of Gaza is that it belongs to Israel. Through the centuries the Philistine strongholds on the coast are conquered, with only Gaza now still in the hands of Palestinians. The Palestinians are not descended from the Philistines physically, but they have the same demonic terrorist spirit.

​For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon desolate; ​​they shall drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron shall be uprooted. ​​Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, the nation of the Cherethites! ​​The word of Yehovah is against you, ​​O Canaan, land of the Philistines: ​​“I will destroy you; so there shall be no inhabitant.” Zephaniah 2:4-5

This verse identifies Gazans, as “Cherethites” or literally: ASSASSINS! It would seem to be a  simple step to understanding this reference as an ancient way of describing the suicide/homicide bombers of today, Hamas in Gaza, Why is there anarchy under Hamas?

There will be no king or authority in Gaza! Ashkelon shall see it and fear; Gaza also shall be very sorrowful; and Ekron, for He dried up her expectation. The king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited. Zechariah 9:5

This has all been fulfilled including anarchy in Gaza. The only thing remaining is for Israel to return and establish order in Gaza. Stay tuned!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

(Why  do I use God’s literal covenant Name: Yehovah? Here is a link to the best simple explanation I know, from my friend, Keith Johnson. Also, here is a link to my book which explains it in detail, The Hebrew God Who Has No Name.)

Almost nobody knows that this is his official position. Yet, Abbas demands that seven million Palestinian “refugees” be admitted to Israel proper. Not to his new state, but to Israel!

EXCLUSIVE: PA ARRESTS PALESTINIAN-AMERICAN FOR PROPERTY SALE TO JEWS Palestinian Authority security forces have arrested a Palestinian-American citizen on suspicion of involvement in a real estate transaction with Jews in east Jerusalem, The Jerusalem Post has learned. The man’s family has notified the US State Department of his arrest.

As has been said many times, the Arabs and Muslims hate Israel, not because of land, or occupation, brutality, or injustice. They hate Israel because they hate Jews. That is why there will never be peace with Abbas, the Palestinian Authority, the PLO, or any other radical Muslim group. They hate Jews.

The only solution is the coming of the Messiah. Muslims and all others will only have peace if they accept the Jewish Messiah. Satan has opposed this from the beginning and will never relent. It is the age-old choice: life or death. Choose to follow Yehovah God of Israel and His Messiah Yeshua or choose the death cult of Islam.

“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; 0 that you may love Yehovah your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which Yehovah swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.” Deuteronomy 30:19-20

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray and thank God for the rain.
