Jews Blamed: Puerto Rico Relief Failures

18 01 2018

A column published by Puerto Rico’s most circulated newspaper said disaster relief decisions on the island are controlled “behind closed doors” by “the Jews.” Wilda Rodriguez, a columnist for San Juan’s El Nuevo Dia, writes in the piece “What does ‘the Jew’ want with the colony?” that “the Jews” are the “secret structure that rules the United States … behind closed doors.” Dry Bones

Top Puerto Rican Newspaper Blames ‘the Jew’ for Disaster Relief Failures – “Only behind closed doors do the most elite politicians speak of the power of the American people as a parallel government organized by the forces of wealth and violence (the war machine) from Wall Street,” Rodriguez wrote. “It is not Congress. The Congress will in the end do what ‘the Jew’ wants.” The Washington Free Beacon

Puerto Rico’s largest newspaper removes anti-Semitic column from website – The El Nuevo Dia newspaper apologized late last week for publishing the January 8 column by Wilda Rodríguez titled “What does ‘the Jew’ want with the colony?” but never removed it from the website. Rodriguez also apologized in a statement on the website. “I deeply regret that my writing is interpreted as anti-Semitic … I apologize to those who in good faith have felt hurt by my political allusion,” she wrote, adding that she “can understand the psychic reaction of some to the mere use of the Jewish word. But the intention is not to provoke offense, but to contribute to public discussion.” Times of Israel

Did you notice that her “apology” was one of those that blames those who “interpreted” her remarks as anti-semitic? Remarks like those in her column are rampant in the Muslim world, but are rather shocking in a United States territory. Thankfully, the paper did eventually remove the column from its website. But, don’t be fooled. Anti-Semitism is alive and well in the hearts of many. Pray for a love of the truth.

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie. 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11

Pray for rain in Israel and for the peace of Jerusalem. (Big rain and snow storm this weekend!)

Palestinians to Suspend Recognition of Israel

15 01 2018

There is a new phenomena in the Muslim Middle East. Leaders are showing their true colors responding to President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. What used to be only spoken in Arabic for “internal” communication, is now being said out loud before the watching world. It is a good thing. Here are several articles from this week that make my point.

Palestinians to Suspend Recognition of Israel – RAMALLAH — Palestinian leaders voted on Monday to call for the suspension of recognition of Israel, and to suspend security coordination with Israel, as they met in response to US President Donald Trump’s acknowledgement of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The speech in which Abbas dug his own grave – While wishing the POTUS’ “house be destroyed” in traditional Arab fashion, Abbas may have destroyed his own house… Mahmoud Abbas, chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, has delivered a speech triggered by his rage at the President of the United States Donald Trump, going so far as to hurl the most bitter curse in the Arabic language at the POTUS: “May your house be destroyed.” This imprecation does not merely relate to someone’s present home, but to all the members of his family being thrown into the street to lead lives of destitution, humiliation and shame. Only someone familiar with Middle Eastern culture understands the real significance of this curse.

Palestinian Leader Abbas is Furious – Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas convened the PLO to go on a wild rant about how US President Donald Trump is helping Israel “steal” Jerusalem from its “rightful” Muslim owners. In between taking jabs at Trump, Abbas reiterated his position that the Jews have no historical connection to Jerusalem or the land in general.

Defense minister: Abbas ‘lost his senses,’ gave up on peace – Avigdor Liberman says PA choosing confrontation with Israel and the US; education minister Bennett says fiery speech marks end of Abbas era

Bitter Abbas to Trump: We reject your peace ‘deal of the century’ – “We told Trump we will not accept his project, the ‘deal of the century,’ which has become the ‘slap of the century,’” said Abbas, expressing Palestinian anger over the US decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. “But we will slap back.”

Why do the nations rage,

And the people plot a vain thing?

The kings of the earth set themselves,

And the rulers take counsel together,

Against Yehovah and against His Anointed, saying,

“Let us break Their bonds in pieces

And cast away Their cords from us.” Psalm 2:1-3

Pray for rain and for the peace of Jerusalem.

Trump and the Wisdom of Solomon

9 01 2018

PHOTO: Palestinian youth holding signs reading: “Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine.” (Abed Rahim Khatib/ Flash90)

President Trump was wise to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, precisely as was Solomon in his famous “cut the baby in half” decision. Trump shocked the world in his first press conference with PM Netanyahu in DC a year ago on February 15. He broke with years of precedent by allowing for “a two state or a one state solution, whatever the two parties agree on.” He is using the same wisdom regarding Jerusalem. The US will not impose the decision, but leaves it up to the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. The very fact that the Palestinians are willing to cut the city/baby in half, betrays their true motive of destroying the holy city and its history.

Ironically, the “two state” world leaders accused Trump of “pre-determining” the outcome. Yet, a recent position taken by the British government, does exactly that in reverse. By insisting that Israel share its capital with the capital of (an as yet non-existent) “State of Palestine,” it is the British who demand a predetermined outcome.

Israel Told It Will Have to “Share” Jerusalem On Monday, British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson reiterated “the UK’s commitment to supporting the Palestinian people and the two-state solution… “Jerusalem should ultimately be the shared capital of the Israeli and Palestinian states,” said Britain’s top diplomat.

What those insisting on such a compromise outcome fail to take into account is that the vast majority of Israelis reject the notion of ever again dividing Jerusalem, and that most Palestinians deny that the Jewish people have any history in, and therefore claim to, the city. Not to mention that Jerusalem was divided between 1948-1967, and the situation was a nightmare for its residents. Israel Today 1-9-18

We should pray for President Trump that he will continue to find the wisdom of Yehovah God in his policy for Israel and Jerusalem.

“For behold, in those days and at that time,

When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem,

I will also gather all nations,

And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;

And I will enter into judgment with them there

On account of My people, My heritage Israel,

Whom they have scattered among the nations;

They have also divided up My land.” Joel 3:1-2

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and “pray for rain in the time of latter rain.”

A Dry Bones New Year

6 01 2018

Here is a sampling of my favorite Israeli cartoonist, Yaakov Kirschen. His humorous view of very serious subjects makes him a major influencer in Israel and the West. Pray for him.

A brave Iranian woman protests the sexist, anti-woman, and abusive rule of the Iranian dictatorship. It is an embarrassment that feminist and women’s groups across the West are not marching in solidarity in the streets of our cities.

The Lion and the Sun are traditional emblems of the Persian nation. They remained the official symbol of Iran until the 1979 revolution, when the “Lion and Sun” symbol was removed from public spaces and government organizations

Iran will come against Israel, but only after the Psalm 83 War (which lists each country by name, not including Iran. Only after this, and a time of peace, do we get to the Ezekiel 38 War of Gog and Magog which includes Iran/Persia by name. Therefore I see Iran diminished somehow in the present time, perhaps by an internal uprising.

Good report of rain and snow this week in Israel. Keep praying. And as we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, let’s also pray for Iranian freedom.

My retina eye surgery was successful in peeling the wrinkled layer, and the prognosis is excellent. I am blessed more than I deserve. Thanks for your prayers.

And He said, “If you will give earnest heed to the voice of Yehovah your God, and do what is right in His sight, and give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, Yehovah, am your healer.” Exodus 15:26 NASB

Israel is on the Trump Train

2 01 2018

Light rail Jerusalem

While you were celebrating the holidays, Israel made a momentous decision.

Israel Announces “Donald Trump Train Station” in Jerusalem Israel Railways has decided to name the final stop on its soon-to-open high-speed Tel Aviv-Jerusalem line after US President Donald Trump. Israel Today

There is an outpouring of appreciation for President Trump because of his historic decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, along with moving the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The new high-speed train was supposed to end at the Central Bus Station, but will now end in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City (near the Roman Cardo, for you who have been to Israel).

“But that’s not all!” as they say in TV infomercials. The Trump name will likely appear on streets and parks as well. But before you criticize, consider that the Palestinians regularly and systematically name streets, parks and soccer stadiums in “honor” of terrorists.

Israel plans a Trump rail station as Trump-naming frenzy sweeps country In addition to the station, Trump-naming frenzy has swept across Jerusalem and Israel, where multiple municipal projects are expected to bear the name of the 45th President. CNN

“So what?” you may ask. Well, Israel’s response to Trump’s recognition reveals the reality of the deep connection between our two countries. The United States was indisputably founded on Judeo/Christian principles, in other words, the Bible. To feign neutrality is to deny reality. The Trump foreign policy is reality based. By taking leadership in the world regarding Israel, Trump assures the continued blessing of Yehovah God on our own land.

Yehovah had said to Abram, “Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you. I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.” Genesis 12:1-3

This is why I believe 2018 is a time of blessing and favor for the US, as I wrote in my blog last week. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

Don’t Miss the Point of Immanuel

21 12 2017

MessianicSealAnim

One of the most important names of Jesus is Immanuel, which means “God with us!”

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” Matthew 1:23 (This is a direct quote from Isaiah 7:14)

Jesus, or Yeshua, means salvation. One of my new favorites is Yeshua ben Yehovah or Jesus Son of God. But the point of His name, Immanuel, is that Jesus, the Messiah, is Yehovah God with us manifested as the Son. It is a non-negotiable core belief of true believers. He was not just sent from God, He is God in the flesh. This is critical.

Muslims believe in a false god even though they have a “prophet” Jesus, or Isa in Arabic. But they don’t believe He is Yehovah’s Son. In fact, they consider it blasphemous. Yet, it is true whether or not they believe. When they accept Jesus as Immanuel, they are accepted into the house of faith.

Jews come at it differently. They do believe in the true God, Yehovah. But, even though the Bible speaks of His Son in Psalm 2 and Proverbs 30:4, they don’t believe Yeshua is the son of Yehovah. That is why this verse is so profound for Jewish believers.

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

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! See! Your house is left to you desolate; for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of Yehovah!” Matthew 23:38-39

This is not a generic representation of the Name, but the exact embodiment of Yehovah Himself! You may understand why the Jews also consider this blasphemous. It is precisely why he was crucified. Some of the Jews in that day received Him as the Son of God, but others did not. Although the above quote speaks of judgment on that generation, it also speaks of compassion and the certainty of a future time when their descendants would indeed recognize that Messiah Yeshua is the actual Son of Yehovah God!

My book, Blessing Israel, speaks of the coming merger of Jew and former gentiles into the commonwealth of Israel as one new man in Yeshua Immanuel! His death served as the ultimate payment for the sins of the world as the LAMB OF GOD!

We pray for the salvation of Israel, the Muslims and for all the nations.

Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. Matthew 10:32-33

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain!

What Silent Years?

18 12 2017

Scholars commonly speak of 400 years of silence between the Old and New Testaments. However, try telling that to the Maccabees and Simeon. Here are two proofs of profound prophetic activity during the so-called silent years.

Maccabees – Doreen wrote a children’s series about the feasts of Yehovah, but started with the “unofficial” feast of dedication or Hanukkah, also known as the festival of lights. Her book title was: How Hanukkah Saved Christmas. Simply put, if the Maccabees had not defeated the Greeks and then restored and rededicated the Temple, Jesus could not have fulfilled the many Messianic prophesies of the Old Testament. That very prophetic event occurred about 150 years before Messiah Yeshua appeared as the Son of David. No Temple, no Messiah.
Simeon – Do you remember the story of Simeon, the older believer who was led by the Holy Spirit into the Temple just as baby (or toddler) Jesus was being dedicated? He was looking for the Messiah, because God had told him he would not die until he saw the Messiah. I like to joke that he recognized Jesus from the other children because of the little halo. That fact is that the Holy Spirit supernaturally revealed it and then gave Simeon a profound prophetic utterance over the child. It would not be a stretch to think he may have been prophesying the Messiah for as much as 50 years. So if you subtract 50 years from the 400 “silent years”, and then allow for the Maccabees’ prophetic actions and declarations; I don’t think it was all that silent.

“And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. So he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law, he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said:

“Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word; for my eyes have seen Your salvation which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.”

“And Joseph and His mother marveled at those things which were spoken of Him. Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against.”

Luke 2:25-34

Notice the three underlined phrases. He held in his arms, Yeshua as Yehovah’s salvation in human form. He saw prophetically, the salvation of the Gentiles, which was unthinkable at that point in history. And finally, he saw Israel’s history as a fall and then rise. This was the opposite of all human history. Every nation rises and then falls, but he saw Israel falling which was completed by the Romans in 70 AD, and then the miraculous resurrection of Israel that we have witnessed in my lifetime! Praise God that He has always had a people and never keeps silent. We serve a living, active, Creator God who keeps His promises to a thousand generations. Hallelujah!

Les & Doreen

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

US Embassy: Recognition of Reality – X4

6 12 2017

Old city street 7-17

Praise God for President Trump keeping his promise to move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people. Here are my four prophetic observations that you won’t see in the secular news.

It’s not about Israel, it’s about the United States. Although Israel is rejoicing with today’s Presidential declaration, the real effect is God blessing the US because we are blessing Israel according to Genesis 12:3. We are recognizing the reality on the ground that Jerusalem has been Israel’s modern capital for 70 years , and in the Bible for over 3,000 years, since King David’s original declaration.
It’s not about Trump, it’s about God. I honor our President for keeping his word from the campaign. Our three previous presidents broke their promise to move the Embassy. But the real credit belongs to God who moved on President Trumps heart, who is simply obeying and carrying out the will of the God of Israel. Derek Prince, one of my mentors, used to say: “When you and the Holy Spirit arrive at the same place, at the same time; it makes you look good.” The same applies to Trump’s promise to “drain the swamp”. I believe God is draining the corrupt and immoral swamp of modern American culture way beyond politics in DC. It is God’s doing and the fact that Trump gives voice to God’s purpose actually does make Trump look good, but it is happening because it is God’s timing for restoration.
It does not kill the “peace process” which was already dead. The Arabs and Muslims have been opposing peace for 100 years, blocking every attempt. The most recent major push was the 1993 Oslo accords which have been a joke. How is that working out for you? It only brought suicide bombings and riots with Israel losing land in every “land for peace,” deal, that never brought peace. After 24 years it is time to pronounce that process dead. It is futile to impose the two-state concept for many practical reasons, but the final word is God’s. He has given the land to Israel; and all the nations of the world and all the demons of hell will not cancel out Yehovah’s eternal plan.
Yehovah is raining on the “Days of Rage”. All the usual suspects are lining up to oppose the move with threats and a call for three days of rage. I had to laugh when a Fox News report a few minutes ago suggested that it is going to be cold and rainy the next three days in Israel, which may reduce the demonstrations. Ha! Pray for rain!

O Yehovah, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You from the ends of the earth and say, “Surely our fathers have inherited lies, worthlessness and unprofitable things.” Will a man make gods for himself, which are not gods? “Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know My hand and My might; And they shall know that My name is Yehovah. Jeremiah 16:19-21

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain!

Embassy Move Monday?

2 12 2017

And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. Zechariah 12:3

Waiver was not signed yesterday. Friday, December 1, was the deadline to file the waiver to postpone moving the US Embassy for another six months. However, a technicality allows the signing as late as Monday. Reports from at least two inside White House sources suggest three possible choices.

President Trump could sign the waiver and pass the buck for six months. However, the report says he will either not sign it at all, which would require moving the Embassy, or sign it and then make a big announcement Wednesday.

The President may announce that the United States officially recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. While that would be a monumental milestone, it would leave our Embassy in Tel Aviv. Yet, it would be a step in the right direction. The Arabs will react either way. Why not just do it all at once? Here are links to a few of the relevant articles.

A Critical Decision – the importance for both countries of moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem

Trump could recognize Jerusalem on Wednesday

TRUMP TO ANNOUNCE JERUSALEM AS CAPITAL OF ISRAEL

Erekat: “Trump recognition of Jerusalem is playing with fire”

Hamas vows renewed ‘intifada’ if US recognizes Jerusalem as Israeli capital

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 3:16

Wonder Woman: Mossad Agent?

29 11 2017

This is a true story for a little post-Thanksgiving humor. A Lebanese newspaper writing about a supposed Israeli spy, claimed that his contact was Gal Gadot, Wonder Woman. It was not true, of course, they confused her with someone else. It was just easier to find a picture of Gal Gadot and hope people wouldn’t notice. Ha! They noticed.

It’s a great source of pride for the Jewish state that the modern incarnation of Wonder Woman is being played by proud Israeli actress Gal Gadot. But Gadot found herself cast in a very different role this week by the Lebanese newspaper Al Liwaa.

The Beirut-based daily was reporting on the arrest last Friday of Lebanese actor and playwright Ziad Itani on charges of espionage. Al Liwaa needed a photo of the Israeli agent who turned Itani, identified as one Collette Vianfi, so it published a shot of the most famous and attractive Jewess it could find – Gal Gadot!

Other Lebanese newspapers and online media outlets immediately pointed out the error, and Al Liwaa’s editorial staff issued an apology. Israel Today

On a more serious note, be in prayer for the decision about moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem. The decision by President Trump will be announced in the next 48 hours. If he signs the waiver again, it will be another six months before the US Embassy moves to the Israeli capital city. Every other US Embassy around the world is in the host nation’s capital. It is about time.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for rain!

THANKS-giving

22 11 2017

We pause to grateful and humble THANKS to our wonderful heavenly Father, Yehovah God. Once again we remember to thank Him for His grace and mercy. Here is a flashback to my 2011 Thanksgiving blog where I explained why the emphasis should be on the first syllable.

BE THANKFUL. Yesterday, Doreen and I stopped by to see our “spiritual daughter”, Laura, at her store downtown. We always honor her as the one who taught us how to pronounce this holiday. (She actually teaches a class in how to speak Southern.) I used to say Happy ThanksGIVING, but she emphasized the first syllable: Happy THANKSgiving. And she is right, of course. This day is about being thankful. 11-23-11

A Psalm of Thanksgiving

1 Make a joyful shout to Yehovah, all you lands!

2 Serve Yehovah with gladness;

Come before His presence with singing.

3 Know that Yehovah, He is God;

It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;[fn]

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,

And into His courts with praise.

Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

5 For Yehovah is good;

His mercy is everlasting,

And His truth endures to all generations.

Psalm 100

Thank you to all who read and support our ministry. You are loved. May you have a blessed THANKS-giving time this year.

I am thankful for three days of rain this week in Israel.

Saudi Checkmate

18 11 2017

Saudi Arabia transformation will be complete with the ascension to the throne of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, aka MBS. Reports are swirling in the media that King Salman, who is 81, will leave the throne next week. His 32-year-old son represents a spectacular departure from many years of elderly kings.

Report claims Saudi king, 81, to hand reins to son next week

The 81-year-old king will continue as a ceremonial figurehead, handing over official leadership of the country to his son — often referred to as MBS, the Daily Mail quoted royal sources as saying.Times of Israel

Fox News Special Report with Bret Baier reported the story Friday night, but it does not appear on their website today. While the timing may change, it is nevertheless inevitable for the young Prince to become King. Stay tuned.

Saudi Prince Muhammad is on eve of accession, plans war on Iran, with Israeli attack on Hizballah DEBKAfile

This has huge implications for Israel and for the Psalm 83 War we have discussed for several years now. Pray for wisdom for Prime Minister Netanyahu. Pray that he will listen to Yehovah God’s guidance from the Holy Spirit. Many world events are falling into place with Biblical prophecy.

There seems to be a rapid rise of millennials as heads-of-state, such as Macron in France and Kim Jung-Un in North Korea. You also see this in the immediate future of the Democrat Party. Sociologists chart the present living generations as: the Greatest Gen, baby boomers, Gen X, millennials and Gen Z. I think it is interesting that they are named using the last letter of the alphabet, since I believe we are living in the last generation before the Messiah comes. I explained this in my book, Generation LAST.

Gen Z kids were the first-born with the Internet and are suspected to be the most individualistic and technology-dependent generation. Sometimes referred to as the iGeneration. NPR

With all the changes on the world stage, you can be sure of one thing. God is right on schedule. He is in control and the Messiah Yeshua is coming soon. Keep looking up!

I tell you the truth, this generation will not pass from the scene until all these things have taken place. Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear. Luke 21:32-33 NLT

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain in Israel!

Rumors of War

11 11 2017

See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. Matthew 24:6-7

This week’s resignation of Lebanon’s Prime Minister (via video from Saudi Arabia) has signaled a dangerous escalation in the tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia. Until now, they have fought a proxy war in Yemen, but it now threatens expansion to direct war. They represent the two largest sects of Islam. The Saudi Monarchy controls Mecca and leads the Sunni branch of Islam which is about 85% of all Muslims. Even though Iran and the Shia are a much smaller percentage, Iran has a powerful and fanatical military, plus terrorist militias spread through the Middle East.

This poses a real danger to Israel and could even involve the US. We should be watchful and pray for Yehovah God’s purpose and peace.

People better start waking up and paying attention to what is happening in the Middle East, because the situation is becoming quite serious. If things go badly, we could be facing a major regional war which would involve not only Saudi Arabia and Iran, but also potentially the United States and Israel. Prophecy News Watch

Psalm 83 outlines the present threats to Israel and also gives us the answer in the form of a prayer in verse 9: Deal with them as with Midian. This short prayer is pregnant with revelation. It refers back to the time of Gideon’s victory with his 300 men over the Midianites.

When the three hundred blew the trumpets, Yehovah set every man’s sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; Judges 7:22

This is exactly the pattern now sweeping the Middle East. Israel’s enemies are fighting each other since the Arab Spring. You can see it in internal civil wars like Syria, but also between nations. Most Bible students have not noticed that two different Greek words are used in Matthew 24 (quoted above). It is not repeating itself. First it refers to ethnic divisions and then to national divisions. We also see this pattern in conflicts in the whole world.

Yet, the counsel of Yeshua is clear. “The end is not yet.”

The Psalm 83 War must be settled first, followed by a time of peace before the Ezekiel Gog & Magog War. So, fasten your seat-belt, but know that God is in control and we are right on His schedule.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and pray for rain!

Quick History Lesson

8 11 2017

A Quick History Lesson

President Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King were both Republicans.

The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) was the “enforcement” arm of the Democrat Party well into the 20th century. (See PBS article)

The Democratic Divorce from Israel is nearly complete.

You can see from the above simple facts that the political move to the left is a serious threat to Israel. This is not actually about politics, but about truth and lies.

Carefully determine what pleases the Lord. Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them. It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in secret. But their evil intentions will be exposed when the light shines on them, for the light makes everything visible. Ephesians 5:10-14

Pray for truth. Pray for rain in Israel. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Why Multiculturalism is Bad

3 11 2017

First, let’s be clear. The Kingdom of Yehovah God is multiracial, but “multicultural” is completely different.

And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, Revelation 5:9

If you mean that people have different minor customs, that is normal. However, if you define culture as maintaining a completely separate system, then you find yourself in conflict with the Bible. Islam under Sharia law is the best current example.

Sharia is an entire way of life for the faithful Muslim. It is not only a religious duty, but it governs every aspect of one’s life. Because it is a supremacist ideology, it is incompatible with any other government or religion. Sharia is in direct contradiction to the US Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights and even the Magna Carta. Most Americans have forgotten that our most important founding document is the Bible. All of our great founding documents issue directly from Biblical principles and concepts.

There is a distinct, clearly defined, Biblical culture that, much like Sharia, governs every aspect of the believer’s life. It starts with the Ten Commandments and continues through the great love chapter of 1 Corinthians 13. Following these precepts, leads to historic blessings and favor from the God of the Bible. The Western nations have been blessed because of Biblical, Judeo-Christian foundations.

Let all the earth fear Yehovah; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. Yehovah brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of Yehovah stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is Yehovah, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance. Psalm 33:8-12

The name of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is Yehovah, the Creator, our Father. Perverted modern media still lies to us, by miss-translating the Islamic war/suicide cry as “God is Great.” The true translation is “Allah is the Greatest.” Their god is not a father and has no son, therefore, a completely different god. When Yehovah warned against “other gods,” He revealed the fact that people would come up with other gods.

“When Yehovah your God cuts off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, and you displace them and dwell in their land, take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed from before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise.’ You shall not worship Yehovah your God in that way; for every abomination to Yehovah which He hates they have done to their gods; for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods. Deuteronomy 12:29-31

It matters what you believe.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain for the Land!

3D Printed Food?

30 10 2017

Food Replicator from Start Trek TV Series

Today I offer a fun diversion from politics and disasters, for your dining pleasure.

Printer, can you please make me a low-fat burger with fries? The Times of Israel

The technology relies on two basic elements: cartridges containing the meal’s ingredients — in powder or solution form — and hardware that applies heat and shapes the matter. The cartridges contain crystalline nano-cellulose as a core element, along with proteins, carbohydrates, fat, antioxidants and vitamins. Following individualized specs provided by the consumer on a 3D printer, the technology applies localized heat and shapes the raw material through infrared lasers.

Created through extraction from cellulose, the most abundant biomaterial on earth, nano-cellulose has a variety of technological and biomedical applications and is an expanding global market. Unlike starch — which is commonly used in food to “bind” meals together – nano-cellulose has no calories and is easily degradable by the body’s enzymes.

The above quote is from a fascinating article from The Times of Israel announcing the combination of 3D printing technology with actual nutritional food ingredients. It will print out real food. The concept was first popularized in the public’s imagination in the Star Trek TV series, The Next Generation, around 1987.

In Star Trek a replicator is a machine capable of creating (and recycling) objects. Replicators were originally seen used to synthesize meals on demand, but in later series they took on many other uses.Wikipedia

So, what has this to do in a blog about Israel and Christian Zionism? Well, I am a CZ and I love Israel, and I love food. Mainly, it is just a fun story. Even Jesus (Yeshua) enjoyed lighter moments, even more than His disciples, as revealed in this verse:

But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness more than Your companions. Hebrews 1:8-9 (quoted from Psalm 45:7. The Hebrew word is translated: cheerfulness, gladness, joy, mirth, and rejoicing.)

Pray for peace and rain for Jerusalem!

“We don’t want peace.”

27 10 2017

The Palestinian Authority repeatedly lies, as this quickly deleted tweet reveals: “Our goal is the end of Israel. … We don’t want peace. We want war and victory.” This was not Hamas or Hezbollah or ISIS, this was the PA. Yet, the media never reports the lies. They stick with the propaganda narrative of the Palestinians as victims of those nasty Israelis. The quote in the above picture from Abbas is a prime example. No Jews in a Palestinian State? Here is just a short commentary on media bias toward Israel.

The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) — an umbrella organization for Palestinian groups headed by Palestinian Authority (PA) President and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas — recently tweeted: “Our goal is the end of Israel. … We don’t want peace. We want war and victory.”

The media, however, consistently refuses to detail the track record of Palestinian terrorism, murder, incitement and rejectionism. Although the AFP detailed al-Maliki’s 2016 statement, for example, many other news outlets — including The Washington Post and USA Today, failed to report them.

In another example, Israeli-Arab journalist Khaled Abu Toameh highlighted a recent statement by Abbas’ deputy, Mahmoud al-Aloul, who said that Fatah doesn’t recognize Israel — a direct violation of the Oslo accords.

As CAMERA has frequently pointed out, al-Aloul is an unrepentant terrorist, also known as Abu Jihad. His February 2017 appointment to be Abbas’ number two was similarly ignored by many in the Western press.

Through their comments and actions, prominent Palestinian officials are violating Oslo on a daily basis — and blatantly calling for the destruction of Israel. And the media can’t be troubled to report on it. The Algemeiner

All the links in this story are trusted sources for the truth about Israel and the Middle East. CAMERA is especially valuable as a site that not only exposes the media mistakes and lies about Israel, but they tirelessly work media to retract the errors. We live in an era where it is harder and harder to discern the truth. Pray much and learn the trusted sources. Ask the Holy Spirit anytime you have a question about the truth printed.

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for rain and for lies to be exposed to truth lovers!

9 Lies About Israel

24 10 2017

Woman Stuns Arab News Anchor By Telling Truth About Israel – Israel Today

“We have made lies our refuge.” Here are nine lies about Israel:

Israel is Apartheid. See photos of happy integrated Arab Israeli citizens.
Revisionist history, says ancient Israel never existed.
Occupation, says disputed lands are “occupied lands.
Israeli brutality. The PA projects its own brutality as coming from Israel.
Oslo Accords: Promises failed. Warnings fulfilled.“The so-called experts were for disengagement. Critics warned against it and they were right.Not a single danger warned against, that hasn’t materialized and not a single promise of proponents, that has materialized. The problem is not what Jews do, but what they are: Jewish.” Dr. Martin Sherman, Israel Institute for Strategic Studies
Land for peace. No peace.
Leave Lebanon for peace. No peace.
Leave Gaza for peace. No peace.
Leave West Bank (Judea and Samaria) for peace. No peace.

Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Hell we are in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, It will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”

Therefore thus says the Lord Yehovah: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily. Also I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plummet; The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters will overflow the hiding place. Your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Hell will not stand; When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it.Isaiah 28:15-18

Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 1 Timothy 4:1-2

Pray for the truth about Israel. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for rain in Israel!

Trump 8 / Media 0

14 10 2017

If you are keeping score, this week it was President Trump with eight wins and the media with zero. Hollywood was caught knee deep in scandals and infighting to further frustrate the left. But, let’s look at the wins for the Administration.

Trump ended coal power plant restrictions (CPP)
Stopped illegal subsidies in Obama Care
Enacted market-based health insurance reforms
Declined to certify Iran deal
Exited UNESCO over anti-Semitism
Welcomed Pakistan freed hostages
Goodell backed down on the National Football League anthem fight.
Confirmed that the Department of Defense (DOD) severed all ties with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), scrubbing SPLC training from DOD manuals.

Not a bad week for the good guys. God really answered the intercessors in DC last week at Rise Up/The Call at the Mall. We must keep praying for our government with the same passion with which we pray for Israel. Here is a great intercessors site: Capital Hill Prayer Partners

In addition, President Trump told the Value Voters Summit that “We must worship God, not government.”

Remember to keep praying for abundant rains to break the drought in northern Israel and fill up the Sea of Galilee.

“He will also send you rain for the seed you sow in the ground,
and the food that comes from the land will be rich and plentiful.
In that day your cattle will graze in broad meadows.” Isaiah 30:23 NIV

Let Israel Rains Begin

11 10 2017

Thirsty Sea of Galilee sinking toward lowest level ever recorded – Days before tens of thousands of Israelis descend on the Sea of Galilee for the Sukkot holiday, the Water Authority warned that the freshwater lake is at dangerously low levels and expected to reach “the lowest level ever recorded.”

The Lord woke me early Monday morning and led me to pray for rain for Israel. Later Monday, my friend Rob Brown, shared the news from Israel of a surprising early rainstorm. It was an answer to my prayers (and prayers of many others, I am sure). I was elated to be used so directly in intercession. It encouraged me to pray for abundant rains to come and refill the Sea of Galilee. Please let it be a word for you as well to pick up the burden to break the drought in Israel.

Ask Yehovah for rain in the time of the latter rain.
Yehovah will make flashing clouds;
He will give them showers of rain,
Grass in the field for everyone. Zechariah 10:1

Water flow into Sea of Galilee at lowest level in a century

150 rescued near Dead Sea as first rain hits Israel

Pray for rain and for the peace of Jerusalem!

You Have An Appointment with God

4 10 2017

We have now entered the final Fall feast, the Feast of Tabernacles. This is the seventh feast and is calling all Jews and also Christians (which I like to call former Gentiles). Most people don’t know that the word “feast” is a wrong translation. The Hebrew word used means “appointment”. It makes a big difference to change from a big party, to an actual appointment with Yehovah.

These seven appointments are listed in Leviticus 23. There are really eight, if you include the Sabbath Day, designed to give God’s creation a day to rest and hang out with Him. Here is a quick outline of the seven appointments. (Here is a link to my radio interview where I spend 10 minutes on each appointment: Radio link ). The first four have already been fulfilled in the ministry of Messiah Yeshua (Jesus).

Passover/Pesach – blood of lamb on doorpost/Jesus Lamb of God.
Unleavened Bread- no leaven symbolizing sin/Jesus was sinless.
Firstfruits – celebrates the early harvest of wheat/Jesus raised from the dead.
Pentecost/Shavuot – celebrates summer harvest with leavened bread/Jesus body of redeemed sinners.
Trumpets/Yom Teruah – celebrates the end of harvest/Jesus Second Coming!
Atonement/Yom Kippur – Day of repentance/Jesus pronounces us clean.
Tabernacles/Sukkot – Looking back to tabernacle in the wilderness/Looking forward to our eternal dwelling place with our Father Yehovah and Son, Yeshua ben Yehovah.

“In addition to the Sabbath, these are Yehovah’s appointed festivals, the official days for holy assembly that are to be celebrated at their proper times each year.” Leviticus 23:4 NLT

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Vicious Violence in Vegas

3 10 2017

The first lady & Pres. Trump on the south lawn of the White House for the moment of silence.

What a month! Three hurricanes and now this vicious violence in Vegas. Is there anything in the Bible that speaks to all this? Yes, indeed. Take a look at this:

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 2 Timothy 3:1-5,12-13

Are all people basically good? I think not. Because of the fall of Adam we are all bent toward sin. It takes the supernatural mercy, grace and forgiveness of Yehovah God to turn things around for each of us. This “turning” is called repentance. Since Jesus, the Messiah, became God’s payment for our sin, we are free to live for God. Hallelujah!

My prayer for the grieving families in Vegas is that they would look up from the darkness of despair and find the Light of the World in Jesus. He is free to all who call on His Name, and He comforts all who mourn.

Shalom, shalom.

Must See Viral UN Video

29 09 2017

EPIC MOMENT: U.N. stunned, Palestinian delegates in shock, as UN Watch brings surprise guest speaker—Palestinian Mosab Hassan Yousef—to expose PLO lies. Watch heads turn & eyes bulge! Over 2 million views (UNWatch)

If you have not seen this video, please watch. This is a former member of Hamas (son of a Hamas founder) who became a Christian in 1999.

Seldom, if ever, has such a clear declaration of truth about the Palestinian Authority and the PLO been spoken, especially at the UN. If you have not read my book, Simple Islam, it is now available on Kindle and I suggest you read it for clarity about Islam.

We always pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but we also pray for the salvation of Muslims. Some of the most joyful believers you will ever meet are ex-Muslims who have experienced the love and forgiveness of Yeshua ben Yehovah, Jesus the Son of God.

Forgiven Much – Love Much If you want your faith to take off like a 747 jet, then meditate on this verse from Luke 7:47

“I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.” Luke 7:47

Yom Kippur, the Day Atonement for Sin begins tonight at sundown. We can all pause to thank our Heavenly Father for the merciful forgiveness provided through the Messiah.

May you be inscribed in the Book of Life for a sweet and wonderful year to come.

Terror Murder in Israel

26 09 2017

Today, a West Bank Palestinian, with a work permit for Israel, murdered three Israelis (one was an Arab Israeli citizen). He killed the three guards at an Israeli checkpoint. He had been cleaning house for one Israeli customer for two and a half years. His own house was upper middle class. He also announced on Facebook (above photo) that he wanted his terrorist pension to be given to his wife. What does this tell us?

This was pre-meditated murder/terror.
It was not done because he lived in poverty.
It was planned well in advance.
He boasted of it on Facebook.
Facebook was his last will and testament.
He banked on the policy of the Palestinian Authority to pay a lifetime salary to his wife for his “martyrdom.”

So, when did murder get defined as martyrdom? The answer is: 1,500 years ago with the birth of Islam. Have you noticed the difference between Christian and Muslim martyrdom? For Christians and Jews, it is simply because they exist. They are hunted down by obedient, observant Muslims and killed. As for Muslims, they initiate the violence as the perpetrators. Yet, in the perverse anti-Christ religion of the Koran, they get glory and eternal rewards for killing infidels. The Palestinians have added a new wrinkle by including millions of dollars in their budget to pay terrorists in prison and their families in the most perverse form of “welfare.” This has become a murder mill for hire. And Israel is supposed to negotiate with these monsters?

This evil criminal was not a “freedom fighter” as they are called by the PA and Hamas. This perversion of terms must be exposed. Yet, he will probably have a street or a soccer field named after him. Seriously, that is what they will do. It is a culture of death.

Here is a report added since I first posted this story…

Facebook page of Abbas’ Fatah movement praises terrorist who murdered 3 Israelis, calls terrorist a ‘Martyr.’

We must stand for truth, love truth and speak up to the propaganda. This same blight on humanity is spreading across the Western world and is coming to America.

My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Yehovah; In the morning I will direct it to You, And I will look up. For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with You. The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity. You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; Yehovah abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple. Lead me, O Yehovah, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before my face. Psalm 5:3-8

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the families of the true martyrs.

Waiting for the Last Trumpet!

22 09 2017

YOM TERUAH! We are at the beginning of the Feast of Tabernacles. Today we are hearing the Sounding of the Trumpets, which is Yom Teruah, the first Fall Feast. In light of all the signs in the heavens, the wars and rumors of wars, and the terrible natural disasters, it is good to lift up our eyes to the Heavens. Our redemption is closer than ever.

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. Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come. Matthew 24:6-8 NLT

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

It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. 1 Corinthians 15:52 NLT

There are many believers who sincerely believe Jesus may come this weekend. Personally, I think there are a few more prophesies to be fulfilled, like Isaiah 17. However, I could be wrong, so my lamp is trimmed and ready!

One time I was musing out loud, in a message I was preaching, that the times of great tribulation would be a wonderful time to share the Messiah. After I was finished, Doreen made me promise to go on the first load. So, I always “stay ready.” Maybe it will be decades before the great appearing of our Lord and Savior, but we stay alert and watching.

Dear brothers and sisters, be patient as you wait for the Lord’s return. Consider the farmers who patiently wait for the rains in the fall and in the spring. They eagerly look for the valuable harvest to ripen. You, too, must be patient. Take courage, for the coming of the Lord is near. James 5:7-8 NLT

The servants who are ready and waiting for his return will be rewarded. I tell you the truth, he himself will seat them, put on an apron, and serve them as they sit and eat! Luke 12:37 NLT

(Today’s posting was inspired by my grand-niece-in-law, Sam Gardner of Sandpoint, Idaho. Thank you, Sam, for your Facebook post.)

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

United Nations

18 09 2017

This week is the UN General Assembly. You may like this video warning about the UN’s bias against Israel. It was recorded by a young Israeli from a so-called “settlement” in the West Bank, known as Judea and Samaria in the Bible. Pray for God’s purpose of restoration for Israel.

President Trump met with PM Netanyahu today (Monday) and will speak to the General Assembly tomorrow morning. Netanyahu will speak tomorrow afternoon. Pray that they will be on the same page and speak what Yehovah God wants them to say.

This is a very prophetically pregnant week with the Feast of Trumpets/Rosh haShana beginning Wednesday night/Thursday. This is the first of the Fall feasts, followed by Yom Kippur and Tabernacles. Thursday also happens to be the United Nations Day of Peace and Safety. I am not making this up.

Why do the nations rage, and the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against Yehovah and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us break Their bonds in pieces and cast away Their cords from us.” He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision. Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, and distress them in His deep displeasure: “Yet I have set My King On My holy hill of Zion.” Psalm 2:1-6

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Good Stories from Israel

15 09 2017

SOUNDS OF MESSIAH? HORNS OF JACOB’S SHEEP BLOWN: For the first time since the Temple stood in Jerusalem, the sounds of shofarot (ram horns) from Jacob’s Sheep were heard in Israel, trumpeting out from the mountains of Naftali, in a powerful chorus that may soon be announcing Messiah in the far corners of the world. (This is worth the read… full story).
Argentina Turns Over Tens of Thousands of Holocaust Documents to Israel: Argentina’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs produced the 139,544 documents mostly between 1939 and 1950.
Israel’s UN Ambassador Danny Danon begins term as UN General Assembly Vice President: With the opening of the 72nd Regular Session of the United Nations General Assembly this week, Danon will preside over a General Assembly session for the first time when Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu addresses the UN next Tuesday (September 19).

“This is what Yehovah says: You have said, ‘This is a desolate land where people and animals have all disappeared.’ Yet in the empty streets of Jerusalem and Judah’s other towns, there will be heard once more the sounds of joy and laughter. The joyful voices of bridegrooms and brides will be heard again, along with the joyous songs of people bringing thanksgiving offerings to Yehovah. They will sing,

‘Give thanks to Yehovah of Heaven’s Armies, for Yehovah is good. His faithful love endures forever!’

For I will restore the prosperity of this land to what it was in the past, says Yehovah.”Jeremiah 33:10-11 NLT

The God of Abundant Mercy

12 09 2017

Hurricane Irma was cut in half at landfall in what I can only call the mercy of God. Many believers prayed and He answered. Hallelujah! Praise Him. Now is the time to give thanks. Much damage was done of course with some to still be discovered, but nothing like the forecasts. The media credited the Bermuda high for steering the storm, but I credit our Heavenly Father’s mercy.

For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive,
And abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.

But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious,
Longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth.Psalm 86:5, 15

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Ephesians 2:4

After Hurricane Andrew 25 years ago, I heard an amazing truth from a pastor friend who lived in Andrew’s path. I asked what he heard from the Lord through the storm. His answer was: “I learned that God loves His people, but He doesn’t care much about our stuff.” Pastor Ray Marco

Again we see that wonderful abundant mercy of God. We just need to praise Him and thank Him.

Shalom!

Where is God? Harvey? Irma? Holocaust?

7 09 2017

Bottomless Pit

With our attention riveted on hurricanes, I have two comments about God’s place in the massive death and destruction of cataclysmic events of weather and wars. Is God there?

Six million Jews died in the Holocaust. (Was that the time of Jacob’s trouble?)
Many thousands die in storms, fires and earthquakes.

One is the result of war, the other natural disasters. In either case the question is asked defiantly: Where is God? To answer this question we must distinguish between His dealings with nations from His dealings with individuals.

First, we know that Yehovah God is omnipresent, He is everywhere all the time. Secondly, we know that He is a Father and His primary nature is love. Thirdly, we know from Psalm 19 that His judgments are true and righteous. If you don’t believe that, you reject the God of the Bible.

The law of Yehovah is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of Yehovah is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of Yehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Yehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of Yehovah is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of Yehovah are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them Your servant is warned, and in keeping them there is great reward. Psalm 19:7-11

Holocaust and wars. Because of the reality of evil and a real devil, there is much sin and death caused not by God but by evil. Ultimately God will end evil. He only delays to allow for many millions more to choose His salvation. Nations hang in the balance of His judgments and receive the consequences of their policies. The Holocaust was the despicable result of Nazi policy conceived by Hitler and the devil straight out of the pits of hell. It is, sadly, quite logical for Jews to ask where God was at that time. Many are atheists rather than accepting a God who would allow such a heinous crime. Yet, individually, Yehovah showed mercy to many as reports attest. And His mercy of salvation personally was still possible for each victim on the basis of their heart toward God and His promise of the Messiah. Only He can know the heart.
Natural disasters. God uses such events as wake-up calls for nations to repent from ungodly pursuits, and turn to Him for blessing and favor on their cities and nation. And also, again, individuals have a personal opportunity to call on Him for mercy and salvation. We heard many inspiring testimonies of Jesus from Hurricane Harvey. Where is your heart toward Him? Are you mad at God? Ask for mercy, humble yourself and repent. Call on the Messiah Yeshua and He will save you eternally. We may or may or not survive physically, but we have the hope of life eternal. Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we know that we also will be raised to be with Him and the Father forever.

When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:13-14

Therefore, we do pray for our nation in this time of natural disasters of wind and fire. Yehovah have mercy, and may our nation turn back to God. And we also pray for His purpose of restoration, favor and peace for Israel. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Sky Above Israel – 1 min. video

5 09 2017

Here is a little taste of Israel to refresh your day. Enjoy.

Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt. 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 36:33-36

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Sheep or Lemmings?

30 08 2017

Are you a sheep or a lemming? Do you follow the crowd, the mob, mass hysteria? Or are you a sheep who knows the voice of the shepherd and follows it to safety? Propaganda depends on the mob mentality. Today’s cultural chaos requires true believer to know the voice of Jesus. We need to listen to the Holy Spirit, Who was given as our Teacher of all the truths that Jesus taught in His earthly ministry. This post is shared in the context of Hurricane Harvey.

First, let me admit that lemmings committing mass suicide is a myth. However, the metaphor for human behavior does exist:

Someone who blindly follows a crowd—maybe even toward catastrophe—is called a lemming. Over the past century, the myth has been invoked to express modern anxieties about how individuality could be submerged and destroyed by mass phenomena, such as political movements or consumer culture. Encyclopædia Britannica

So, we need to test the spirits to see if they are from God. Do not blindly accept everything you hear. Test it. “Watch the witness!” as brother Arthur Burt always said. Does the report agree with what the Holy Spirit is saying in your heart? Does it agree with the Bible?

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

This is serious business. As we watch the rise of chaos and anarchy in our nation, we must be more vigilant. Keep our lamps filled with the oil of the Holy Spirit.

On the brighter side, even in the midst of the terrible devastation of Hurricane Harvey this week, hearts have turned to God for His mercy. Even the media cannot ignore the colorblind love of neighbor helping neighbor. The lie of racial division is exposed by the love poured out without respect to skin color from both victim and rescuer. Media types have been heard more than ever sending not only their “thoughts,” but openly sending their “prayers.” I pray that our nation will turn our hearts to Heaven and the fountain of mercy from the living God Yehovah.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the United States.

Why We Need Toucans

26 08 2017

The Best of Elisha Vision Commentary – reprinted from June 17, 2011

I was reading a really horribly twisted article on the Jerusalem Post this morning which I suggest you read, to understand people who try to solve Israel’s problems without Yehovah God. It includes mockery of Glen Beck and his Jerusalem rally in August. The writer also manages to attack Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Michele Bachmann and Mike Huckabee along with other American and Israeli conservatives. He even manages to skewer several godly pastors both living and dead.

There is a mantra of the godless left that says “right-wing” Christians and Jews hate Muslims. This is a lie. Jesus died for Muslims, and God calls them to repentance as He does for all people. God loves people and desires that they choose life in Him. Therefore, we love Muslim people as God does. However, the ideology and religious doctrine of Islam is paganism. It denies that God is a Father and that Jesus is His Son Who died on the cross to save whosoever will come to Him.

So, why do we need toucans? After reading the article, I stared at my computer background which today is the toucan. I just started worshiping the glorious beauty and diversity of our Creator. Could the world get by without that one specie of tropical bird? Probably yes. Yet, God in His infinite wisdom may have just decided one day: “Wouldn’t it be cool to have at least one of my birds with an enormous yellow and orange beak with stark black and white feathers?” Well, if that is what God was thinking, I agree. Even the flight of the toucan is cool. Because of the disproportionate weight of his prize beak, a toucan has to work hard to gain altitude and then falls as he glides, pumps up to heights again, only to fall again as he glides.

Somehow I think life is a bit like a toucan with our own ups and downs, but God is with us! We have a place in His purpose that is uniquely ours. Don’t ever tire of pumping up your altitude in the Holy Spirit, the glide is worth it.

But those who wait on Yehovah shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31

Simple Islam – Now on Kindle

21 08 2017

This is big news that I anticipated for a long time. You can now download my book, Simple Islam for a fraction of print cost. Just click on the cover photo or download directly from your Kindle app.

Simple Islam has been my most popular book yet. Here is brief introduction:

IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE BIBLE AND ISLAM. Contrary to majority opinion, we do not all worship the same God. Christians and Jews worship Yehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Clearly identified as a Father in the Bible, He also 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

Islam, by contrast, adamantly denies their god is a father or has a son. The Jesus of the Quran is not the Son of God, and did not die. The aim of Simple Islam is to clear the chatter that confuses the issue. Les Lawrence

Please read this book and then encourage your friends to get it. The printed version is also available on Amazon. It is critical that we understand the threat and know the simple answers to counter the lies and propaganda.

Thank you for giving it a look.

Astounding Love

17 08 2017

Hate Nazis, hate white supremacists, hate Jews, hate Muslims, hate alt-right, hate alt-left, hate Antifa, hate communists, hate police, hate media, and hate Trump. Exactly how many people from either side in Charlottesville last week were motivated by the love of Jesus? The number one attribute of Yehovah God is love. His love for the whole world is astounding. More hatred is directed at God than at any human being. Yet He loves us.

There is a new method for reaching Muslims for Jesus. A friend who has spent time on the ground in Europe among the refugees has shared an amazing fact. The best way to share Jesus is to use a smart phone. Find out their language and bring up 1 Corinthians 13 in their language. That type of love is unknown in their religion and personal experience. One man began reading and weeping as he said he had never heard of such love. He accepted Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God and was baptized. This is being repeated over and over. Praise God!

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:1-8

So, what do we see in the riots and terrorism? Is it love? Of course not, it is simply what the Bible calls the deeds of the flesh.

Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5:19-25

In addition, we know that satan is adding fuel to the fire with his demonic minions and principalities. It is more important than ever that we do not go there. Don’t give your soul to the wars of men. Stand for righteousness. Stand for Jesus and His love. Be led by the Holy Spirit in everything you say and everything you do. Speak up, and stand up in the supernatural love of Yehovah.

What If they gave a RIOT and Nobody Came?

14 08 2017

DIFFERENT DAYS

I have the solution to the regular riots that are “breaking out” in our cities, thanks to big money paying the demonstrators. Why not issue permits for legal demonstrations, and schedule the counter demonstrations on different days?

Does free speech and freedom of assembly guarantee freedom of counter demonstrators to harass, threaten, intimidate and block the permitted free assembly? Police should defend the demonstrators who have a legal permit and block the counter demonstrators who have no permit.

It seems so intuitively obvious that I am amazed that no one has been talking about this. The police should protect the right of peaceful assembly. Police should prohibit the counter demonstration from occurring at the same time and place. Protect one group one day and then protect the opposite group the next day. So simple.

The First Amendment states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”Library of Congress

It seems to me that peaceful assembly is being abridged by counter demonstrations that are violating the law. That is where the emphasis should be placed. That is the real responsibility of government and police.

Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.Romans 13:1-3

(Charlottesville Disclaimer: For the record, I completely denounce the white supremacists, and neo-Nazis. I also completely denounce the Antifa anarchists. Both are only trying to cause trouble. I wouldn’t be surprised if they both received cash from the same source.)

Not Fake News – NPR

12 08 2017

This is hard to believe, but I am not making this up. It comes from National Public Radio News. The city of Boston and other cities think Islamophobia is such a problem that they are using tax payer money to put up posters around Boston to “educate” citizens how to handle Islamophobia.

The city of Boston is launching a poster campaign to fight Islamophobia by encouraging bystanders to intervene, in a nonconfrontational way, if they witness anti-Muslim harassment. Starting Monday, the city began installing 50 posters around the city with advice on what to do if you see Islamophobic behavior. The posters recommend sitting by a victim of harassment and talking with them about a neutral subject while ignoring the harasser.NPR

Have you ever seen posters helping to diffuse anti Jew hatred? A Jew is six times more likely to be attacked than a Muslim. That is an official FBI statistic over a ten-year period.

Even the term is bogus. It means “fear of Islam.” Christians have no fear of Islam. Even if they do succeed in killing us, we know we will be raised from the dead and live eternally with Jesus. We fear the living God. It is He who forgives and is abundant in mercy.

For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You. Psalm 86:5

King Abdullah Demands ’67 Borders

8 08 2017

Yesterday King Abdullah of Jordan upped the ante as a result of the recent Temple Mount riots. He met Monday with Palestinian Authority President Abbas in Ramallah (only 11 miles north of Jerusalem). They agreed on new demands of the US regarding the failed “two state” idea that gives the Palestinians a new state in Biblical Judea and Samaria which the world calls the “West Bank.”

They are demanding this state on the pre-1967 Six Day War borders. They also demand a complete freeze in Jews building homes including eastern Jerusalem. Every Palestinian offer always includes pre-conditions which are always a non-starter. Israel cannot cede negotiable points before even convening; because then Abbas simply demands more concessions.

My opinion is that Israel should only agree to the post-1967 borders. I wrote about it in two previous blogs with maps. Click on each title.

Yes to ’67 Borders

Israel Should Return to 1967 Borders!

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

Why do the nations rage, and the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against Yehovah and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us break their bonds in pieces and cast away their cords from us.” He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; Yehovah shall hold them in derision. Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, and distress them in His deep displeasure: “Yet I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.” Psalm 2:1-6

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

White House Bible Studies

5 08 2017

WASHINGTON – A spiritual awakening is underway at the White House. Some of the most powerful people in America have been gathering weekly to learn more about God’s Word, and this Trump Cabinet Bible study is making history. They’ve been called the most evangelical Cabinet in history – men and women who don’t mince words when it comes to where they stand on God and the Bible. CBN News

Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, Agricultural Secretary Sonny Perdue, Attorney General Jeff Sessions and CIA Director Mike Pompeo are counted among its regular participants. Vice President Mike Pence, who described himself during the 2016 campaign as “a Christian, a conservative, and a Republican, in that order,” is present for the Bible study as often as his travel schedule allows. Lifesitenews

New in the White House: Bible Studies – New reports say current cabinet is one of the most spiritual in history, with weekly meetings for Bible studies. Israel National News

Praise God for this news. Pray for our President and our country.

“As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish… so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55: 10-11 ESV
