Terrorists Have Supernatural Faith

3 04 2024

Jesus warrior

Where do terrorists get their power? You may have not considered the source. The Bible is clear about spiritual wickedness. There really is a devil and demonic principalities resisting and opposing God’s plan. It is more than a human political ideology. The source is supernatural. Why do they seem to be winning in the battle for the minds and hearts of men? The answer is that they really believe they will win. They have an evil counterfeit version of faith in their cause. That perverse faith is energized by demonic sources.

“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

Why are they able to persuade the gullible to follow?  The problem is that righteous believers have weak faith. Christians often stop with saving faith, fire insurance, just enough faith to avoid hell. The Bible calls this “little faith.” Pastor John Thrift pointed this out recently at Grace Assembly of God in Wake Forest, NC. It would be good to do a study of “great faith.”

Terrorists really fervently believe their beliefs. Christians often live in doubt with very little faith for real life. Little faith is off to the side somewhere like a fire extinguisher under the sink that is out of date. Terrorists literally die for their beliefs. They are connected to supernatural spirits. They actually have a saying that they win because they love death more than life. It is a death cult. Satan only came to “steal, kill, and destroy.”

“But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.”  Matthew 8:26

“Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.”  Matthew 15:28

Some Christians are wimps. Many Christians believe the Holy Spirit was only around to get the church started. Even “Spirit filled” Christians live their lives without reference to His holy supernatural power. Yeshua (Jesus) came to show us the Father; and He left us the Holy Spirit to energize us with Yehovah God’s power for daily use. How embarrassing to see Christians overcome by the devil. They don’t have a clue what Jesus has given them. Remember this: Great big God, little bitty devil.

“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.”  James 4:7-10

We need to choose the Holy Spirit to live by. There is power to save AND there is power to live! There are three great points in the famous verse in Revelation 12, but do not miss the main message about the accuser: THEY OVERCAME HIM!

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.”  Revelation 12:10-11

THEY OVERCAME HIM in three steps, by fighting fire with fire, the FIRE of GREAT FAITH:

  1. The blood of the Lamb.
  2. The word of their testimony.
  3. They did not love their lives to the death.

It is time to rise up for such a time as this! Wake up, stand up, and speak up! I have read the end of the Book. We win!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, the troops and leaders, and rain to water the land.

Why Rafah Must Fall to Israel

28 03 2024

Repeat Oct 7

Rafah is the last city in Gaza sheltering Hamas and the Israeli hostages. Estimates range from 4,000 to 10,000 fighters are holed up in Rafah including the top two leaders, Sinwar and Deif. The Israeli and American hostages (yes, nine U.S. hostages) are also believed to be held in tunnels under Rafah. This last city is on the border of Gaza and Egypt where most of Hamas weapons come in through tunnels. Israel must finish the job in Rafah or Hamas will claim victory and rise to attack again, according to their own officials.

Hamas official says group aims to repeat Oct. 7 onslaught many times to destroy Israel – Ghazi Hamad, of terror group’s politburo, hails assault in which civilians were systematically murdered, saying ‘there will be a second, a third, a fourth’; US official: ‘Chilling’

Hamas statehood Astonishingly, the Biden Administration is demanding Israel not finish the job, claiming civilian harm. Yet, Israel has already gone through every other city in Gaza, evacuating the civilians ahead of the troops. That’s one reason there are more civilians in Rafah. But the IDF has proven to provide safe passage away from the fighting for civilians. Even now Israel is setting up a tent city west of Rafah on the beach. The Biden proposal is to offer a state to the Palestinians including Hamas and Islamic Jihad. This is simply a reward for the October 7th massacre. Unthinkable!

IDF begins isolating Rafah, orders 40,000 tents – The moves come despite intensifying international opposition to a ground operation in the last Hamas stronghold, which Jerusalem says is necessary to defeat the terrorist organization.

Yehovah instructed Joshua to conquer Canaan and take no prisoners but totally defeat them. In the defeat of the Amorites in Joshua 10, we saw the miracle of the sun standing still for nearly a day so the enemy could be totally vanquished.

“And do not stay there yourselves, but pursue your enemies, and attack their rear guard. Do not allow them to enter their cities, for Yehovah your God has delivered them into your hand.”  Joshua 10:19

This is the point now reached in the Gaza war. Finish the job! Biden says to stop before Rafah. Even President Trump says it is time to finish Hamas and bring peace. That is my prayer. Finish Hamas and eliminate their threat permanently. Then there will be peace in Gaza and time to rebuild and rehabilitate the brainwashed Gazans, who are now realizing it was Hamas that oppressed them for 18 years. There was not one Jew in Gaza; it was Hamas oppressing the civilians. Pray for peace and salvation for the Palestinians.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for the leaders, protection for the troops, and give thanks for the abundant rain watering the Promised Land.

Purim, Persia, and Modern Iran

21 03 2024

Dry Bones Purim 2024

Sundown Saturday March 23 the Jews celebrate Purim. Based on the Book of Esther, Jews celebrate yet another historical failure of their enemies’ attempt to annihilate the chosen people. Satan’s goal to eliminate Israel and the Jews is repeated through thousands of years, always ending in failure. Purim is a happy celebration of one of Satan’s defeats. Jews celebrate with parties, parades, costumes and reenactments of the story of Esther, Mordecai, and the evil Haman. We often quote Psalm 83 where this Satanic purpose is revealed. Two observations are clear, that the enemies of Israel are motivated by their hatred of Yehovah God, and they intend to stamp out the very memory of Israel.

“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 83:2-4

This year it has special significance in the context of the Gaza War. It is not insignificant that the perpetrator in Esther is the same Persia/Iran behind the Gaza War today. Persia changed their name to Iran on March 21, 1935, two days after Purim in that year. The location was Hitler’s Berlin and the purpose was to join with the Nazi scourge.

“Unfortunately, with the rise of Hitler in the 1930’s, “Aryan” came to be associated with the Nazi definition: being of Non-Jewish Caucasian descent, especially the blue eyed, blond haired Nordic races that Hitler himself favored and hoped to make a master race. … At the suggestion of the Persian Legation in Berlin, the Tehran government, on the Persian New Year, March 21, 1935, substituted Iran for Persia as the official name of the country.”  Persians Are Not Arabs

Let’s not get too far into the weeds. The point is that the demonic principality ruling Iran today is the same as Nazi Germany and ancient Persia. The devil is still at it. It will end only when the Messiah comes. The current timing indicates that we are closer than we think to all the end of days prophesies being fulfilled. How ironic and timely that Iran assumes a new position at the United Nations during Purim:

Repeating History: Evil Iranian Leader To Chair UN Agency… On Purim – The Islamic Republic of Iran  assumed the presidency of the United Nations Conference on Disarmament on Monday March 18.

Alternate Reality: Iran Becomes President of UN Conference on Disarmament

“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” Matthew 24:32-35

Even so, come quickly Yeshua, our Messiah! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, the troops, the leaders, and for rain.

The Audacity of Senator Schumer!

14 03 2024

abbassept262016

The leader of the United States Senate has called for the overthrow of the government of Israel, our closest Middle East ally. He also insists on giving the terrorists their own independent state. This is the very meaning of audacity from Merriam-Webster: “bold or arrogant disregard of normal restraints” Senator Schumer has defied the longstanding position of both our government and the American people, who overwhelmingly support Israel. He did this today from the floor of the US Senate.

Chuck Schumer calls for new elections in Israel, says Netanyahu ‘has to go’ – Senate Majority Leader gives major address from the Senate floor on ‘a pathway to peace and achieving a two-state solution,’ attacks Israeli government and calls for new elections. Schumer called for the holding of new elections in Israel, saying that “Netanyahu has lost his way.” He further called the Israeli Prime Minister an “obstacle to peace.”

The US goal should be the overthrow of Hamas, not Israel! What most Americans don’t get is that the Palestinians demand a stated free of all Jews, totally apartheid. The majority even go further and say NO ISRAEL! What Schumer ignores is that 75% of Israeli’s oppose a new Arab state. Remember this battle is not flesh and blood but a spiritual battle between Yehovah God’s revealed plan and the forces of supernatural principalities and powers.

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 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 6:10-12

Dry Bones Goals

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for the leaders and protection for the troops with total victory! Also, we thank God a relatively peaceful five days into Ramadan. Keep praying for God’s deliverance.

“Holy” Ramadan

6 03 2024

Ramadan

The world is aghast that Israel would continue fighting in Gaza during Ramadan, the month-long Islamic holiday. Yet, the Oct 7 invasion and massacre of Israeli civilians was intentionally on a Jewish holy day, Simchat Torah, the conclusion of the Feast of Tabernacles. Also, the 1973 Arab/Israeli War was an Arab surprise attack on the most holy day in Judaism, Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. So please, don’t fall for the “holy day is off limits” ploy from Hamas.

“Late March will see the beginning of the month of Ramadan, which, in addition to being a month of fasting and piety, is also associated with jihad and martyrdom. According to Muslim tradition, during Ramadan Allah grants the Muslims glorious victories, as exemplified by the fact that the great battles of Islam, such as the Battle of Badr in 624, the conquest of Mecca in 630, the conquest of Andalusia in 711, the battle of Ein Jalut in 1260, and the October 6, 1973 “War of Ramadan” fought by Egypt against Israel, as well as other victories – all occurred during Ramadan. Laylat Al-Qadr, one of the last nights of Ramadan, has been marked over the years by many terrorist attacks.”  Memri.org

If Israel stops fighting before eliminating Hamas, Israel loses and Hamas wins. The Hamas Charter calls for the total annihilation of the Jews, not land for peace. They don’t care how many civilians are killed, except for world sympathy. Israel and Prime Minister Netanyahu need our prayers for the courage to finish this war. I have shared this text several times since Oct 7, but let me emphasize one more time. This is God’s judgement of the wickedness of Hamas. Yehovah will not turn it away this time. This literally is the fourth Gaza war.

Thus says Yehovah: ​​“For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, ​​I will not turn away its punishment, ​​Because they took captive the whole captivity to deliver them up to Edom. ​​But I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza, which shall devour its palaces.  Amos 1:6-7

Gaza wars:

2008 – Operation Cast Lead.

2012 – Operation Pillar of Defense.

2014 – Operation Protective Edge.

2023 Operation Swords of Iron. So, this is the fourth Gaza war.

Yehovah God will not turn away their punishment this time! Please pray that Israel will stand strong against the ungodly pressure from the nations. This war will end with victory for Israel, not because they are righteous, but because they are chosen. The land is God’s gift to Israel from the River of Egypt (the Nile) to the great River Euphrates (in northern Syria).

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, protection for the troops, wisdom for the leaders, and rain for the land.

Hamas chief Haniyeh calls on Arabs to storm al-Aqsa on Ramadan – Hamas terror chief Ismail Haniyeh made a televised statement on Wednesday calling on barricades at al-Aqsa Mosque at the start of Ramadan and Hamas’s “flexible” stance on hostage negotiations.

‘October 7, part two’: Iran plans for terror during Ramadan, Israel charges – Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Tuesday warned that Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas are trying to use Ramadan to inflame the region so as to achieve another October 7 disaster against Israel.

SIN-WAR!

29 02 2024

Sinwar

Gaza’s Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, is the key to understanding the Gaza war. Here is my summary. He was convicted of murder in 1988 and was serving four life sentences in Israeli prison. Sinwar, now 61, was released in 2011 in a prisoner deal where Israel released 1,026 terrorists for ONE Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. This shows two things. Israel values human life; and that exchanging terrorist murders for hostages will come back to bite you. The title “Sin-war!” indicates the evil sin of the October 7 massacre that provoke the Gaza war using a play on words with the perpetrator, Yahya Sinwar.

Yahya Sinwar: the man who may hold key to release of Gaza hostages – Man described by Israel as architect of the 7 October attacks is now perhaps the most powerful figure in Hamas. Israeli officials have described him as the architect of the 7 October attacks, which killed 1,200, mostly civilians, and so “a dead man walking”.

Yahya Sinwar, Hamas leader – He was convicted for the murder of Palestinians accused of collaborating with Israel and was sentenced to four life sentences in prison.

Gaza’s humanitarian crisis: Yahya Sinwar sets up a trap for Israel – Hamas’s leader in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar, is betting on international authorities forcefully stopping the IDF’s invasion of Gaza in its tracks.

Hamas: ‘The Israelis are right where we want them’ – Hamas leader in Gaza sending optimistic messages to terror group’s fighters on the ground.

Israel estimates: Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar hiding in Gaza – In Israel’s estimation, Hamas leader Yahya SInwar still hiding in tunnels beneath Khan Yunis, but killing him risks lives of ‘human shields’ hostages.

When Yehovah allows enemies to come against His people it is usually because of sin in the camp. The only course for us is repentance. God protects us when we follow Him. When we pray for Israel we need also pray for ourselves and our nation. This is needed for the whole world.

“Then they cried out to Yehovah, and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken Yehovah and served the Baals and Ashtoreths; but now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve You.’”  1 Samuel 12:10

“Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, ​​For in You do I trust; ​​Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, ​​For I lift up my soul to You. ​​Deliver me, O Yehovah, from my enemies; ​​In You I take shelter. ​​Teach me to do Your will, ​​For You are my God; ​​Your Spirit is good. ​​Lead me in the land of uprightness. ​​​REVIVE ME, O Yehovah, for Your name’s sake! ​​For Your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble. ​​In Your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul; ​​For I am Your servant.”  Psalm 143:8-12

Revival means we have passed out and need CPR to revive us! That is our condition without Jesus. REVIVE ME, and REVIVE ISRAEL! That is our prayer today.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, protection for the troops, wisdom for the leaders, and rain for the land.

What Is Your Attitude Toward Israel?

22 02 2024

support-Israel-2942728205

Are you arrogant or haughty about Israel? Let’s go a little deeper beyond the basic blessed or cursed. God gets more specific in Romans 11. Paul may sound harsh here but his sober warning is quite clear. The context is the breaking off of Israel branches because of unbelief, and grafting in wild olive branches (gentiles) who believe. Notice the simple measure is belief. Jews are not saved just because they are Jews. But, likewise we gentiles are not saved because we are better, or special. It is simply because we believe the promise of the Messiah Yeshua. He is the only way to salvation for everyone.

“Do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you. 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.”  Romans 11:18-20

Two Clear Warnings – Don’t boast against Israel and don’t be haughty! We already know from Genesis that those who curse Israel will be cursed and those who bless Israel will be blessed. These warnings go further, touching our attitude. I believe to boast against Israel is the seed of anti-Semitism. To be haughty or arrogant towards them is the beginning of anti-Semitism. Our attitude should only be humility that God found a way to include us! Hallelujah! By the way, to be anti-Israel, anti-Zionist, or anti-Semitic are all the same sin in different words, just semantics.

Now here is the main point. What happens to our beautiful branches if we do sin in this way? Notice the very next verse!

“For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. 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.”  Romans 11:21-22

Finally, back to Paul’s emphasis about Jews being saved even after the severe judgement of being scattered among the nations for 1,800 years. Is there any hope for them?

“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 11:23-24

Of course, the faithful Yehovah God of Promises will show His rich mercy and grace for all Jews and Israelis who believe in His Messiah. Pray for them and bless them!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for the troops, the leaders, and for rain.

Massacre 1,200 = Get a State

15 02 2024

2 state

What do you get when you massacre over a thousand people? A country! Perverse political pronouncements that defy reason are regularly coming out of the White House against Israel now. The most audacious yet is the Biden plan to reward Hamas and all Palestinian terrorists with a Palestinian state. This was never achieved through many peace negotiations, but Biden proposes a state be unilaterally recognized by the United States to “solve” the Gaza war which was started after the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust! First, let’s review the history of “peace” deals.

Did you know Palestinians REFUSED to have a state?
– Peel commission 1937
– UN partition plan 1947
– Israel declaration of independence 1948
– Oslo accords 1993 incompletion
– Barak offer Camp David 2000
– Saudi initiative 2002
– Olmert’s offer 2008
– Kerry Obama initiative 2013
– Trump’s “deal of the century” 2020
The reason was ALWAYS their refusal to acknowledge the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state.

Scoop: State Department reviewing options for possible recognition of Palestinian state

Rewarding the Oct. 7 massacres with a ‘Palestinian’ state  – What do you get when you massacre over a thousand people? A country.

The Biden Administration Is Considering the Ultimate ‘Betrayal’ of Israel: Report – Is there no end to the astonishing moral bankruptcy of the Biden Administration?

US obsession with two-state solution is ‘delusional’ – It’s “shocking” that a US administration would push for a Palestinian state under ordinary circumstances, let alone after Oct. 7.

This proves once again that our battle is not human but spiritual wickedness in demonic realms. The plan to recognize this imaginary “state” is to do it within weeks. I am calling for a serious prayer attack against these demonic principalities until the idea of statehood is dropped. Yehovah God has a far superior “unilateral” plan. The whole land of Israel has been awarded to Israel by the decree of the living God!

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 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. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”  Ephesians 6:10-13

“Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yehovah commanded you, saying, ‘Yehovah your God is giving you rest and is giving you this land.’”  Joshua 1:13

After I sent out this post a clear statement was issued by Prime Minister Netanyahu:

Netanyahu in message to US: We reject international dictates on Palestinian state – “My position is summed up in the following two sentences: 1. Israel rejects outright international dictates regarding a permanent settlement with the Palestinians. Such a settlement will only be achieved through direct negotiations between the parties, without preconditions,” he added. “2. Israel will continue to oppose the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. Such recognition following the October 7 massacre would give a huge unprecedented reward to terrorism and prevent any future peace settlement,” said the Prime Minister.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, protection for the troops, wisdom for the leaders, and for rain.

The Miracle Helmet

8 02 2024

Messiah helmut

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The 2005 Gaza Experiment Failure

31 01 2024

Gaza children of war

Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005. No Jews and no Israeli military have lived there for 18 years! Hamas ruled Gaza, not to provide for Gazans, but to stage war against Israel. The Israeli withdrawal was a colossal failure. This means the Oslo Accords were a failure and the “two-state solution” was a failure. None of it works because the Palestinians don’t want a state along side Israel and they don’t want peace. They want Israel gone. They want the Jews gone. And when I say gone, I mean dead. They groom their children for death and war. This is an ancient demonic hatred of the Jews because Yehovah God Himself gave them the land over 3,000 years ago. I would like to quote from an excellent commentary by Ryan Jones, in Israel Today. You would be wise to read the entire article.

“Those who pushed withdrawal from Gaza promised that doing so would increase security, lower civilian and military casualties, and reduce international pressure on Israel. In every one of those cases they were wrong.”

  1. “By leaving Gaza, Israel created a power vacuum that was quickly filled by Hamas, resulting in the largest terrorist military base in the world sitting right on Israel’s southern border.”

  2. “Since 2005, that terrorist haven has launched thousands of rockets at Israel, killing and wounding many people, and necessitating a series of Gaza wars that have claimed the lives of hundreds of soldiers.” (not to mention 1,200 mostly civilians on October 7th)

  3. “Despite handing over a Jew-free Gaza Strip to the Palestinians, Israel has arguably come under increased international pressure in regards to the coastal enclave. The world still holds Israel responsible for the wellbeing of the people living there.”

“When there were Jewish settlements in Gaza, they suffered periodic terrorist attacks. Sometimes terrible attacks with many casualties. And the nation had its recourses stretched by the need to maintain a military presence in Gaza to protect these “settlers” as best as possible. But these problems only increased by leaving Gaza. And, of course, have now culminated in the mass atrocities of October 7, sparking Israel’s largest full-scale war since the invasion of Lebanon in the early 1980s.”  Israel Today

Remember God’s instructions to Joshua when they entered the land. He was instructed to remove the wicked inhabitants. Their wickedness caused the forfeiture of their land. “The Canaanites were in no way an innocent people as they stood before God and Israel. Were the Canaanites a peaceful, righteous, upright people? That is hardly the case. They practiced such things as child sacrifice, incest, adultery, temple prostitution, and various other horrible acts. When we read about God’s justice going forth against the Canaanites, it was because they had rejected God and his law. It was a willful rejection, a purposeful rejection.” Dr. John Currid

“But you shall utterly destroy them: the Hittite and the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, just as Yehovah your God has commanded you, lest they teach you to do according to all their abominations which they have done for their gods, and you sin against Yehovah your God.”  Deuteronomy 20:17-18

“Do not think in your heart, after Yehovah your God has cast them out before you, saying, ‘Because of my righteousness Yehovah has brought me in to possess this land’; but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that Yehovah is driving them out from before you. It is not because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart that you go in to possess their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations that Yehovah your God drives them out from before you, and that He may fulfill the word which Yehovah swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”  Deuteronomy 9:4-5

God is faithful to keep His promises. He gave Israel the land because of His original promise to Abraham and He will keep them in the land today because of that same promise! It is not because Israel was faithful, but because God is faithful. He even provided salvation from our sins through Jesus, the Lamb of God. Mercy was available even for the Canaanites but they refused Him and chose their wicked ways. Let us all humble ourselves before God and receive His grace and mercy through Jesus, our Messiah.

24 IDF Soldiers Die in One Day

23 01 2024

fallen-soldiers-230124-930x520-1

A tragic incident yesterday in Gaza led to 21 killed in a building collapse; while three others died in battle. It is a sad reminder to keep praying for the troops. Far away in America politics captures the headlines, but the war in Gaza goes on. God has promised to defend Israel from her enemies; but still we need to stand in the gap and pray. The enemy is relentless; but Yehovah is faithful.

24 IDF soldiers killed in deadliest day since start of Gaza combat – Twenty-one troops died in a building collapse, three others in battle. Around 4 p.m. terrorists fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a tank securing the forces. At the same time, two two-story buildings collapsed as a result of an explosion while most of the troops were inside or near them. The blast was apparently caused by explosives planted by the Israeli forces, intended to destroy the buildings in a controlled event.

One report explained that the two buildings would normally have been destroyed from the air. But Israel is conserving it missiles in case they are needed in Lebanon. We need to pray that Senator Schumer will release the funds that have already been voted for Israeli armament resupply from the U.S.

“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. ​​I will say of Yehovah, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; ​​My God, in Him I will trust.’ ​​Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. ​​He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; ​​​​His truth shall be your shield and buckler.” Psalm 91:1-4

His truth shall be your shield! This is our promise from God. The demonic enemy is determined to “steal, kill, and destroy,” but God is faithful to keep us in His hand. We may lose a battle, but God wins the war according to His truth. This applies to Israel and nations, but He also gives that promise to us as individual believers.

“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

“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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, protection for the troops and rain for the land.

God Has a Plan: Only God

17 01 2024

Judean desert

Jews have suffered many calamities in their 4,000 year history and yet they are still here today! The October 7th massacre killed over 1,200 Israelis, the worst since the WWII Holocaust. How do they continue to exist with nations and terrorists committed to their destruction? Only Yehovah God. He has made unconditional promises to them and He always keeps His word.

The Judean desert is blossoming in this picture. There is an amazing prophecy from Jeremiah that gives us this promise. Jeremiah’s contemporary context was the impending Babylonian captivity, but the promise goes way beyond his day. Look at the phrase in this passage that says God will scatter them but regather them. “Behold, I will gather them out of all countries where I have driven them…” This promise is not limited to Jeremiah’s day. Babylon was only one country, but there would also be a regathering from all the countries.

“Behold, I will gather them out of all countries where I have driven them in My anger, in My fury, and in great wrath; I will bring them back to this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely. They shall be My people, and I will be their God; then I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me. Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul. For thus says Yehovah: ‘Just as I have brought all this great calamity on this people, so I will bring on them all the good that I have promised them.’”  Jeremiah 32:37-42

God is now turning the hearts of His people back to Him. He is putting “the fear of God” in them. Before October 7th they put their trust in their great army, but it failed them. They are asking what happened? Only God can save them. They will finally come to this conclusion because God says they will. Stay tuned. Don’t lose heart. Pray into the promises of Yehovah through His Son, Yeshua. God is faithful!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for the leaders, and for rain to water the land.

Where Are the Bodies?

11 01 2024

trial

Israel is standing trial today for genocide in the International Court of Justice in the Netherlands. Hamas claims Israel has killed 20,000 Gazan civilians. The irony is breathtaking. The stated written goal of Hamas in their Charter is exactly the genocide of all Jews worldwide.

Where Are the Bodies? If you have been following Israel and Gaza, you know that Hamas is adept at producing many videos claiming various “crimes” of Israel. most of which were proven false. They like to stage videos, so much so that it is referred to as “Pallywood,” a play on Palestinian Hollywood. Several times they show a video of a “martyr” who gets off the stretcher and walks away or moves under the sheet. Now, add to that, the October 7th terrorists who wore GoPro cameras actually filming their own war crimes. If they have videos of everything that moves, where are the videos of 20,000 “innocent civilians” murdered by Israel? Where are the bodies? Don’t you think they would publicize such a massive genocide? Have innocent civilians died? Of course, but not as claimed. Israel is the most moral army in history. They actually announce the specific target, even the single building, so civilians have time to escape. The IDF does this with leaflets, cell phone calls, and media.

The irony is breathtaking. The stated written goal of Hamas in their Charter is exactly the genocide of all Jews worldwide. South Africa is making the charges on behalf of Hamas, which is also bitterly ironic, given their apartheid past. Hamas did indeed succeed in their October 7th genocide of 1,200 civilians in Israel. Their leaders have openly stated that it was just the first attack of many: “over and over again” until Israel is gone. Their evil is so shockingly deep that normal people just can’t believe they really mean it. However, it is not the first time we have seen such depraved commitment to pure evil. The Nazis come to mind, as well as Rwanda, and even currently in the slaughter of Nigerian Christians by Muslim jihadists. But the Biblical example is the best definition of this “beyond the pale” EVIL.

“Then Yehovah saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”  Genesis 6:5

Notice the superlatives in this one verse. You could call it exponential evil. When the Holy Spirit inspires a description with such repetitive emphasis we should pay sober attention.

  1. Wickedness of man.
  2. Was great.
  3. Every intent.
  4. Was only evil.
  5. CONTINUALLY!

This is the proper description of the demonic spirit of Hamas. How can nations and yes, even college students in America, be so deceived? We are in a new season of prophetic timing and fulfillment. There will be ups and downs but we are in for rough times ahead.

“See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.”  Hebrews 12:25-29

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”  Jesus, in John16:33

Pray for Jerusalem peace and abundant rain and snow for the land.

Do You Believe the Bible?

4 01 2024

Dry Bone Biblical perspective 2024

This is a shocking headline: “73% Of US Christians Say The Bible Doesn’t Influence Their Views On Israel.” Prophecy News Watch That is why I use the phrase “Bible believing Christians.” If you don’t believe the Bible you are not a believing Christian. You are a cultural or national or ethnic Christian, but not a believer. They have “another gospel” according to the Apostle Paul.

“But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”  Galatians 1:8

Only 27% of “Christians” in the Lifeway Research survey chose the Bible as an influence of their view of Israel. 56% chose media as there choice. Even worse, only 17% of “Christians” chose the Bible as their primary source. Again, the media was more influential. “Only about a quarter of American Christians say the Bible influences their views on Israel as the Israel-Hamas war continues after the Oct. 7 attack on civilians in southern Israel killed over 1,200 and prompted an Israeli military offensive in Gaza.” PMW

Let’s remember that the Bible was breathed into text by the living God.

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”  2 Timothy 3:16-17

Are you really going to believe the media over the God of the Bible? The Greek word for “inspiration” literally means: “divinely breathed in:—given by inspiration of God.” There is no source or authority to trust more than God Himself! You may be aware that pro-Israel Christians, i.e. Christian Zionists are Bible believers. When you move away from the Scriptural authority you are adrift in humanism. Incidentally, this is also true of Jews. Many American Jews are actually standing against Israel with Hamas. Those are Jews who do not believe the Bible. The wonderful thing is that Arabs who believe the Bible are pro-Israel. (If you want a great Gazan Arab testimony of an ex terrorist assassin, watch this December 21 interview with Joel Rosenberg.)

“For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”  Hebrews 4:12

A proper paraphrase of the first part is: The Bible is alive, and it is energy! The Greek word for powerful is literally “energēs” from which we get our English word: “energy.” Those “Christians” who do not believe and live by the Bible are missing out on the energy of the Holy Spirit. I pray that you believe God’s divinely breathed word and stand 100% with Israel in these days of prophetic destiny. (Disclaimer: We do not agree with every decision of Israel, but agree with the purpose of God for Israel.)

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and wisdom for their leaders. Also, thank God for this week’s rain in Israel.

Yeshua is Salvation

21 12 2023

Yeshua

You will call Him Yeshua because He will Yasha His people from their sins. You will call Him Salvation because He will save His people from their sins. You will call Him Savior because He will save His people from their sins. You will call His name Jesus because He will save His people from their sins.

“She shall bring forth a son. You shall call his name Yeshua, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”  Matthew 1:21 HNV

Most Bible translations of Jesus’ name manage to completely obscure the root meaning. Names always carried real meaning in Israel’s culture. Language translations have “dumbed down” the name of Jesus. Most Christians and all unsaved people think it is only a name. Yet, there is a great revelation in the etymology of the name. It comes directly from the Hebrew word for salvation: Yeshua or Yehoshua. Early manuscripts of Matthew were written in Hebrew where the logic of calling Him Yeshua is immediately clear in the context: “for He will Yasha (save) His people from their sins.” Yeshua and Yasha are from the same Hebrew root “to save.” Jesus is “salvation” because He will “save!”

Finally, there is one more profound point here. Those of us who were born as unsaved Gentiles are so grateful that the previously limited national promise to Israel came to us through Jesus. But we must not forget that the original promise to Israel is eternal. Yeshua is His name because He will save HIS PEOPLE from their sins. They will turn back to Yehovah God and see that Yeshua is indeed Yeshua ben Yehovah, Jesus, Son of God! God will save them, not because they deserve salvation, any more than we do, but because God is faithful! He made unconditional promises to the forefathers of Israel and He will keep those promises.

“Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am Yehovah,” says the Lord Yehovah, “when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of 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 keep My judgments and do them. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.”  Ezekiel 36:22-28

During this Christmas season may Jesus the Light of the World, become the Salvation of Israel! Pray for the real peace of Jerusalem.

Hamas: Operation Al-Aqsa Flood

14 12 2023

Israel-wall-down-in-hamas-alaqsa-flood-success-cropped-281555216

“Operation Al-Aqsa Flood” is what Hamas called their massacre of 1,200 Israeli civilians on October 7th. We are truly living in Biblical history in real time. It was the worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust of World War II. You may not know that the lie of “defending Al-Aqsa” mosque on the Temple Mount actually was first used in the 1920s, leading to the massacre of 67 Jews in Hebron in 1929. Yet, the Al Aqsa mosque still stands even though it is completely under Israeli sovreignty since 1967. If Israel wanted to destroy it, they could. Notice the prophetic match of this verse:

“So shall they fear the name of Yehovah from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of Yehovah will lift up a standard against him.”  Isaiah 59:19

Do you think it is a coincidence that Hamas copied that terminology? Satan has no creative ability, he can only copy and pervert God’s plans. The good news is that God is always able to turn the evil around to Yehovah’s good purpose. Here is the classic example from Joseph in Egypt.

“But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.”  Genesis 50:20

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. ​​Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; ​​though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah ​​There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. ​​God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; ​​God shall help her, just at the break of dawn. ​​The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; ​​He uttered His voice, the earth melted. Yehovah of hosts is with us; ​​The God of Jacob is our refuge.”  Psalm 46:1-7

Pray for hearts of Jews and Arabs alike to turn to the living God. Yehovah has the final say! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for the leaders, and rain for the land!

War and Hanukkah

7 12 2023

Dry Bones Hanukkah 2023

Prime Minister Netanyahu quoted the Bible when he said this is a time for war. The first three Gaza wars spared Hamas, but the fourth war triggered a divine prophecy in Amos 1:6 that Yehovah warned: “For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment.” Even as Israelis observe Hanukkah around the world, the troops are lighting the candles in Gaza. The October massacre was unspeakably evil, yet light shines in the darkness. This time Israel will eliminate the terror base that was Gaza. A new day is dawning for the innocent Gazans who are being liberated from the oppressive terror dictatorship.

Here is a partial quote from an excellent article by Charles Gardner in Israel Today.

Resisting the devil – How Hanukkah prepared the way for Israel’s Messiah. Rabbi Jonathan Cahn asks the question, “Who is the most famous person to attend the annual Festival of Hanukkah?” The answer, as too many perhaps don’t realize, is Yeshua. For in the Gospel of John, the apostle records: “Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.”  John 10:22-23

We are told there was conflict over his claims to be the Messiah, with some opponents even threatening to stone him. But his appearance there was significant.

The feast was inaugurated in 164 BC when the Maccabees finally defeated the much more powerful armies of the tyrannical Syrian-Greek emperor Antiochus Epiphanes IV who had tried to impose his pagan idolatry on the Jewish people. He had desecrated the Temple – even sacrificing a pig on the altar – but on December 25 that year (in the Gregorian calendar) God’s holy place was restored and cleansed, and it is said that the menorah burned miraculously for eight days despite having only enough oil for one.

So we remember that stunning military victory with a festival of light, symbolized by a special nine-branched candlestick, with a candle lit on each of eight days by the central Shammas (servant) candle. Jesus came both as the light of the world and as a Servant King, humbly becoming a man and God’s sacrificial Lamb.”  Israel Today

One week ago Hamas paraded the hostages in Gaza’s Palestine Square. Today the Square is conquered and under the control of Israeli forces. Many miracles are being reported already, with more to come. You may have heard about 200 Palestinian men in Gaza dreaming the same dream of Jesus the same night. Here is another great miracle of a young soldier attacked with a hand grenade that somehow got tangled in gear and flipped back at the attackers killing them all. The Israeli and his group only suffered minor injuries! Hallelujah!

Pray protection for the troops this Hanukkah, pray that many Israelis and Arabs will turn to the living God and His Messiah, pray for rain, and as always: Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Hamas IS Isis

1 12 2023

Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip Yahya Sinwar in his first public statement since the start of the war

Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip Yahya Sinwar (pictured) in his first public statement since the start of the war:  “October 7 was just a dress rehearsal.” The face of evil.

I am compelled to state the obvious because the world is reacting differently to Hamas. Isis was a scourge on the earth and the whole world agreed to completely stamp them out. Yet, Hamas has already killed a hundred times as many civilians and with way more savagery and perversion. The sadistic sexual rapes and murder are beyond words. But the world is calling for a ceasefire that would allow Hamas to survive and reproduce the same evil. Hamas IS Isis!

“To do evil is like sport to a fool, but a man of understanding has wisdom.”  Proverbs 10:23

I am finding that Scriptural truth is more important than ever. It is not some complex political dilemma, it is simply good verses evil. Here is just a small sample from one Bible chapter speaking simple truth.

“A worthless person, a wicked man, walks with a perverse mouth; ​​He winks with his eyes, he shuffles his feet, he points with his fingers. ​​Perversity is in his heart, he devises evil continually, he sows discord.  Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly; suddenly he shall be broken without remedy.

​​These six things Yehovah hates, yes, seven are an abomination to Him:  ​​A proud look, ​​A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, ​​A heart that devises wicked plans, ​​Feet that are swift in running to evil,  ​​A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.”  Proverbs 6:12-19

The following is a quote from a proud Israeli citizen who is Arab.

“My country, the only Jewish country in the world and the only democratic country in the Middle East, just released 6 terrorists in order to bring back home Ayisha and Belal – both of whom are Arab Muslims who were kidnapped by the terrorist organization Hamas-ISIS. It’s ironic because these 6 terrorists, like other terrorists, have no problem killing, kidnapping or torturing Arabs like Ayisha and Belal just because they are Israeli citizens. If you didn’t get it by now, then you are an idiot so allow me to clarify again…this war is not between Arabs and Jews it is between the IDF and the barbaric terrorist organization Hamas!”  Yoseph Haddad

There is no contest between light and darkness or good and evil. Pray that people will have a love of the truth and seek it out. The Holy Spirit bears witness to the truth. He will guide you into truth.

“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.”  John 16:13

Pray for victory in war, the peace of Jerusalem, and for rain.

Mark Twain Israel Prophecy

25 11 2023

Israel-flourishing

The Gaza war casts a dark shadow over the land of Israel today, but we must insist that God views it differently. What does He see? How does today’s war move the arrow toward the promised purpose for the promised land? Consider the amazing prophecy about Mark Twain in the book of Deuteronomy.

“…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.’ All nations would say, ‘Why has Yehovah done so to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?’”  Deuteronomy 29:22-24

Mark Twain (aka Samuel Clemens) visited Israel (then called Palestine) in September of 1867. The Hebrew meaning of the name “Samuel Clemens” is: “God has heard and has been merciful.” His remarkable description of the desolation of the land is recorded in his famous book, Innocents Abroad.

“Mark Twain, who visited the land of Israel in 1867 (referred to as Palestine at the time), described Israel as a “…desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds—a silent mournful expanse… We never saw a human being on the whole route… There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere. Even the olive and the cactus, those fast friends of a worthless soil, had almost deserted the country.”  

“Half a century after Twain’s visit, the Balfour Declaration was issued in 1917. Fifty years later the Six Day War was won. And today, in 2017 – 50 years after that – Israel continues to flourish, moving in leaps and bounds away from Twain’s “sackcloth and ashes.”  Jerusalem Post

I conclude that Mark Twain’s visit in a Jubilee Year was the exact fulfillment of Deuteronomy 29. Seeing these events connected each 50 year cycle reveals the larger picture of Yehovah’s predetermined plan of restoration for Israel. He needed a witness to the whole world of the devastation so His miraculous healing of the land would shine in contrast. The glory of God can now be seen. Yes, there are terrible events such as the Gaza war along the path. But the greater glory is relentlessly unfolding as Yehovah keeps His word of the SET TIME of His favor and blessing. The Messiah Yeshua will only come in the restoration:

“Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus Christ, who was preached to you before, whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began.”  Acts 3:19-21

Pray for the peace and restoration of Jerusalem and abundant rains.

Never Again Uprooted

21 11 2023

Gaza rainbow

What part about “never again” do you not understand? This photo is quite interesting with Israeli troops in the foreground and the rainbow in the background. In the middle of the Gaza war there is the promise of peace and hope for a future because God is faithful to keep His word. What is the endgame for God? We know that Israel is set to completely eliminate the terror threat of Hamas. But what comes after? Yehovah God has the final say!

“I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit. 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 9:14-15 ESV

“Thus says Yehovah: “The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness; when Israel sought for rest, Yehovah appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. Again I will build you, and you shall be built, O virgin Israel! Again you shall adorn yourself with tambourines and shall go forth in the dance of the merrymakers. Again you shall plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant and shall enjoy the fruit.”  Jeremiah 31:2-5 ESV

“He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.”  1 Thessalonians 5:24

This foundation of faithfulness supports all of God’s promises. It is not just words. It is His character. He is faithful! He not only says it, but He also will do it. Words are cheap, but our God keeps His word even to a thousand generations. Just read the rest of Jeremiah 31 (above). Israel will win this war and every future war because God made certain unconditional promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel which will absolutely be fulfilled to the last detail. Read His promises. Pray the Scriptures. All the demons of hell or Hamas cannot block even one single promise of the living God! Hallelujah!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray and thank Him for the present rains.

Refusing the Truth

16 11 2023

-5089121339490545295_121

Why is there confusion and delusion regarding the present Gaza war? Some even accuse Israel of creating a false flag event as a pretext to invade Gaza. This is easily refuted by clear facts. How do people believe the outrageous lies accusing Israel? The answer is that they are deceived. Then, amazingly, God Himself “sends them strong delusion” so that they will believe the lie! We have a deeper explanation for the deception revealed in 2 Thessalonians.

“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. But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,”  2 Thessalonians 2:9-13

The core issue is basic truth. Lawless ones are deceived because they don’t love truth. This then locks them into delusion by God’s own decree. It is the inevitable result of rejecting the truth. For example, here are a few truths that are refused by the deceived.

  1. Hamas Charter calls for the total annihilation of the Jews, not land for peace.
  2. The slogan of “River to the Sea” is likewise a call for the genocide of Israel.
  3. Some actually claim Hamas did not attack civilians, easily refuted by their own GoPro cameras recording the beheadings, rapes, and murders while literally boasting as they do it. They “had pleasure in unrighteousness”.
  4. Israel is accused of apartheid, but that is easily debunked by visiting the land and seeing Arab/Jewish integration at all levels of society. Nearly 20% of Israeli citizens are Arabs and are better off than most civilians in Arab countries. Arabs are serving in the IDF liberating Gazans from Hamas oppression.
  5. Israel is accused of killing babies without evidence, while Hamas videos prove they kill babies.
  6. Overwhelming documentation of Hamas intentionally targeting civilians for sixteen years, while Israel does all it can to avoid civilian casualties. Israel drops leaflets and gives cell phone warnings of exact targets before attacking.
  7. Hamas is guilty of double war crimes by both attacking civilians and then using their own Gazan civilians as human shields.

Remember this is all a product of lawlessness, and God responds by locking the lawless into their delusions. He clearly says it is because they do not love the truth. Do you love the truth? Do you dig deeper past the headlines and find the truth?

Gaza wars: 2008 – Operation Cast Lead. 2012 – Operation Pillar of Defense. 2014 – Operation Protective Edge. 2023 Operation Swords of Iron. So, this is the fourth Gaza war. As I said before, God declared the true outcome of this fourth Gaza operation through the Biblical prophet Amos:

Thus says Yehovah: ​​“For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, ​​I will not turn away its punishment, ​​Because they took captive the whole captivity to deliver them up to Edom. ​​But I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza, which shall devour its palaces.  Amos 1:6-7

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

We Stand with Israel

10 11 2023

combined symbols

Biblical Christians stand with Israel because we stand with God. He is performing a last days miracle right before our eyes. Satan means evil with the Hamas Gaza war, but God is using it to advance His plan for Israel. Even though the majority of Christian denominations believe God permanently rejected the Jews, they are wrong. The error of “replacement” theology has blinded many to the glorious restoration of Israel in our day.

“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. And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.”  Ephesians 2:14-18

ONE NEW MAN! Notice the flag logo attached to this article. The symbol on the left of a menorah, star of David, and a fish was found in a first century Israeli synagogue. This is a graphic picture of the  fundamental revelation of God’s ultimate plan for Israel and the world. The menorah represents the Jews and the fish was an early sign of Christians. The base of the menorah and the tail of the fish form the star of David. In the end it will not be Jews and Gentiles, because God is preparing a merger of the two. He calls it “one new man.”

Scripture is replete with verses about the miraculous return of the world wide scattered Jews to their own land. We have witnessed this as they got their land back, their Hebrew language back, their capital city Jerusalem back, as well as their people returning. In 1948 there were 600,000 Jews in Israel. Today there are 8,000,000, that is 8 million! The best part is that He is turning their hearts back to Him. They were shocked that the vaunted Israel Defense Forces (IDF) failed them on October 7th. They ultimately cannot save themselves, they need Yehovah God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

“For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of 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 keep My judgments and do them. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.”  Ezekiel 36:24-28

GRAFTED IN! God did not create a new people when He opened the Gospel to the Gentiles. He took wild branches and grafted them into the tree of Israel. This “one new man” symbol is also called the “grafted in” symbol. Jesus is merging all of His followers into one people, Israel.

“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 11:17-18

Pray for God’s purpose in the Gaza war. Pray for salvation for both Arabs and Jews. Pray for abundant rains in this rainy season. And pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Why Not Fear?

3 11 2023

Fear-Quotes-30

Fear is actually a demonic spirit, a living thing. It is not simply being startled. The spirit of fear serves the devil by paralyzing people and driving them to run and hide, or worse to spread panic and unbelief to others. This is not from God. The media is a strong purveyor of this fear. You may know the saying: “If it bleeds, it leads.” Media needs sensational headlines (clickbait). Just as Gideon fought the Midianites in his day, we now must overcome the “Media-ites.”

“Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”  2 Timothy 1:6-7

So, overcoming fear requires functional faith in God. We are believers not only because of a Biblical worldview, but because we know that God is higher and more powerful than any fear. One of my favorite examples of this concept is revealed in the days of the prophet Elisha. (This is why we call our ministry, Elisha Vision.)

“And when the servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, “Alas, my master! What shall we do? ”So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, and said, “Yehovah, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then Yehovah opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”  2 Kings 6:15-17

Two Keys are in these verses. First, remember that God always has more than the enemy. Second, God will open our eyes to see His glorious array of angel armies that are on our side. Therefore pray that He will open your eyes! The Holy Spirit gives us sight into God’s dimension. You don’t need to be blinded by fear. More are they that are with us. See the victory of Yehovah God’s deliverance through His Messiah Yeshua!

ISRAEL UPDATE – Today Hezbollah has backed down from their threats to join Hamas and the Gaza war. Yesterday the media was all about World War III. Today its: “Never mind.” God is restoring Israel and defeating the Hamas threat. Eventually, He will also eliminate the Hezbollah threat in His timing. Evidently that timing is not now. Praise God and the Heavenly Armies in Jesus’ name!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and physical rain, along with the rain of the Holy Spirit.

No Pleasure in Death

18 10 2023

07gaza5-videoSixteenByNineJumbo1600

You have seen the videos of people rejoicing over the October 7 massacre. Two points need to be understood from the Bible. First, judgement is coming on the wicked according to Obadiah. Second, the rest of us should check our attitude when the judgement comes. My Kenyan friend, Michael Masambu, made a great point on his Facebook post:

“Woe unto those that rejoice over the misfortunes of the Jewish Nation. October the 7th, 2023 will go down in the books of history as the worst day in Israel after the Holocaust. On this day the murderous gangs of Hamas sponsored by bloody thirst Iran infiltrated Israel and murdered in the most brutal way the innocent children, grandparents, the lame and the blind in the Israel territory. When this news was aired, the streets of Tehran were filled with people rejoicing and the government spokesperson praising the murder of the Israelites. As I was thinking about this, these Bible verses came to my spirit. This prophecy is powerful. Tell the enemies of Israel the pain they celebrated has become their portion.”  Michael K. Masambu

As we spoke this morning (before I saw his post) I was reading Obadiah myself. I believe the Lord wants me to confirm his comments with these two Scripture portions. The first was used by Michael in his post.

​“But you should not have gazed on the day of your brother in the day of his captivity; nor should you have rejoiced over the children of Judah ​​in the day of their destruction; nor should you have spoken proudly in the day of distress. ​​You should not have entered the gate of My people in the day of their calamity.  ​​Indeed, you should not have gazed on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity. ​​You should not have stood at the crossroads to cut off those among them who escaped; nor should you have delivered up those among them who remained in the day of distress. For the day of Yehovah upon all the nations is near; as you have done, it shall be done to you; your reprisal shall return upon your own head.”  Obadiah 12-15

“For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies, says the Lord Yehovah. Therefore turn and live!” Ezekiel 18:32

These two points may seem contradictory, but both reveal the nature of God. Both are true. Death is the ultimate result of our rebellion against God, but what is our attitude when we see the resulting death of the wicked? Do we rejoice? Do we take pleasure in their death? Certainly, we are glad that the evil is ended. Yet, what is God’s response? No pleasure. He grieves. He would rather they would repent and choose life. That should be our attitude as well. Make no mistake, I do believe Israel must eliminate the Hamas death cult in Israel’s own existential self defense. But, even though we thank Jesus for victory, we take no pleasure in the deaths, even of the wicked. They are eternally lost. Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus. Maranatha! I believe many who are grieving in Israel at this time will turn to Yehovah God, their only true salvation through the Messiah Yeshua. That is my prayer for Jews and Arabs alike.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and timely rains.

Let God Arise!

14 10 2023

worship

This week has been a time of deep intercession for Israel. This is what I have heard from the Holy Spirit. Please join me in praying for God’s supernatural protection and purpose for Israel as they deal with the demonic Hamas terrorist scourge.

“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: … a time of war, and a time of peace.”  Ecclesiastes 3:1 & 8

“Let God arise,
​​Let His enemies be scattered;
​​Let those also who hate Him flee before Him.
As smoke is driven away,
​​So drive them away;
​​As wax melts before the fire,
​​So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
But let the righteous be glad;
​​Let them rejoice before God;
​​Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.
​
Sing to God, sing praises to His name;
​​Extol Him who rides on the clouds,
​​By His name YAH,
​​And rejoice before Him.
​
A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows,
​​Is God in His holy habitation.
God sets the solitary in families;
​​He brings out those who are bound into prosperity;
​​But the rebellious dwell in a dry land.”  Psalm 68:1-6
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain in the timing appropriate for battle.

No More Strength to Weep

12 10 2023

weep

Gaza invaded Israel to execute and assassinate ordinary civilians. Their purpose was not military. They intentionally murdered, raped, and beheaded elderly, women, children, and even babies. You know the news, but do you have the Biblical context and parallels? Consider the story of David before he became king. 

“And when David and his men came to the city, they found it burned with fire, and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive. Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept until they had no more strength to weep.” 1 Samuel 30:3-4 ESV

I see a parallel between David and Bibi Netanyahu. Bibi’s detractors accuse him of being king, but I believe he is God’s man of this hour for Israel. Captives were taken and pursued in both cases. Already, there are those who blame Bibi for the evil invasion of Hamas from Gaza into Israel. My prayer is that Bibi will do what David did. Pray that Bibi Netanyahu is seeking counsel from the living God regarding Gaza and the captives. 

“And David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in soul, each for his sons and daughters. But David strengthened himself in Yehovah his God. — And David inquired of Yehovah, “Shall I pursue after this band? Shall I overtake them?” He answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake and shall surely rescue.”  1 Samuel 30:6 & 8 ESV

“For Gaza Shall Be Forsaken.” There is another parallel with ancient and modern Gaza. The Bible clearly says that Gaza will belong to Israel. Her judgement is prophesied in Zephaniah. Gaza today is a spiritual remnant of the Canaanite demonic principality. You need to understand that the word “Cherethites” literally means “executioners” or “assassins.” That demonic spirit clearly motivates the Hamas invaders today.

“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.” ​​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 2:5-7

Zephaniah 2 starts with three mentions of the anger or wrath of God. I have often proposed a response to the New Age bumper sticker: “Visualize World Peace.” My alternative bumper sticker is: “Visualize the Wrath of God!” This is not a mean spirited or fleshly idea, but rather the real order of things. Before we will see true world peace, we will see the judgment of God against violence and evil. Israel will only know true peace when they recognize that Jesus (Yeshua Sar Shalom) is the real prince of peace. This is also true for the Arabs/Palestinians. We all need Jesus! Pray that this horrible Hamas massacre will turn the hearts of the people to Yehovah, God of Salvation and to His Son, Yeshua ben Yehovah the Savior.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for rain, both natural rain and the rain of the Holy Spirit.

Today’s Gaza Attack in the Bible

7 10 2023

Israel at war: At least 300 killed, dozens kidnapped, over 1,500 injured – Over 3,000 rockets fired towards Israel; Hamas kidnaps dozens of hostages in Be’eri and Ofakim. (Update Sunday: over 600 killed!)

This is a Saturday evening report, Eastern Time. You have probably heard of the terror invasion of Israel from Gaza, but there is a relevant Scripture that I want you to consider and pray over from the prophet Amos.

“Thus says Yehovah: 
​​“For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, ​​I will not turn away its punishment, because they took captive the whole captivity to deliver them up to Edom. ​​But I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza, which shall devour its palaces.”  Amos 1:6-7
I see four distinct aspects in this prophecy.
1. “I will not turn away its punishment.” (after the fourth transgression.) There have been four Gaza wars since the ill-advised withdrawal of Israeli rule (for Peace!) in 2005. The above text may indicate that this new attack will involve the destruction of Gaza as a walled-off separate entity.
2. “took captive the whole captivity.” A unique feature today is the taking of many captive hostages (over a hundred?)
3. “But I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza,” This speaks of the destruction of Hamas and possible re-introduction of Israeli rule, thus needing no wall.
4. “​​which shall devour its palaces.” This speaks not only of the defeat of Hamas rule, but specifically eliminating Hamas leaders. The only people in Gaza with palaces are the evil terrorist leaders.
You may recall that the very name “Hamas” chosen by the terrorists themselves, comes directly from the Hebrew language and the Hebrew Bible and is translated “violence”. It is an Arabic acronym forming the Hebrew and English word Hamas which means : VIOLENCE! as a means of invoking terror by simply saying their name. The Hebrew word hamas is found in such passages as this from the days of Noah:
“The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.”  Genesis 6:11-12
The heinous machine gun slaughter of civilians on the streets of Israel, including women and children, is the same demonic spirit of violence (hamas). There is nothing new; this is the battle of the ages. The ancient principalities are still trying to overthrow the Kingdom of God and His salvation for sinful man. But we have read the end of the Book and we win. Israel wins. Because Yehovah God and the Messiah Yeshua are alive to keep every promise. Not one promise of God will fail. Satan has been stripped of his authority. Jesus has all authority!
Therefore we pray that God will finish the work in Gaza. We have reached the “four war limit” prophesied by Amos over 2,700 ears ago. Let’s agree together that this will be the last war with Gaza!
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for sweet abundant rains in Israel this year.

Announcing June 2024 Israel Tour

4 10 2023

Sea of Galilee 2023

Having just returned from Israel with 35 happy travelers from six states, plus two from Kenya, I am excited to release the details of our next tour, June 17-27, 2024. Please pray about joining us in June. It was such a joy to bring 30 first timers in our group. Your life changes forever after witnessing with your own eyes the promises of God fulfilled in Jesus, the Messiah Yeshua as we walk His glorious land.

“For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace, ​​And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, ​​Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, ​​And her salvation as a lamp that burns. The Gentiles shall see your righteousness, ​​And all kings your glory. ​​You shall be called by a new name, ​​Which the mouth of Yehovah will name. You shall also be a crown of glory ​​In the hand of Yehovah, ​​And a royal diadem ​​In the hand of your God. You shall no longer be termed Forsaken, ​​Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate; ​​But you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; ​​For Yehovah delights in you, ​​And your land shall be married. For as a young man marries a virgin, ​​So shall your sons marry you; ​​And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, ​​So shall your God rejoice over you. ​​I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; ​​They shall never hold their peace day or night. ​​You who make mention of Yehovah, do not keep silent, ​​And give Him no rest till He establishes ​​And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.”  Isaiah 62:1-7

Here is a thank you note from two of our new friends from our Sept 2023 tour, to give you an idea of our Israel experiences.

“We really liked taking a boat ride/sailing on the Sea of Galilee, floating in the Dead Sea, seeing the Temple Mount, the waterfall at Ein Gedi, and Hezekiah’s tunnel! (Just to name a few). It was truly a great trip and it was wonderful to meet new people and make new friends! 🙂 We truly are Blessed by God to have had this opportunity! 🙂 (and grateful for all the traveling mercies along the way).”  Nick & Sarah Wiseman, Florida

Please let me know if you are interested in our June ’24 Elisha Vision Israel tour. (Click here for itinerary.)

“I was glad when they said to me, ​​“Let us go into the house of Yehovah.” ​​Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem! ​​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 122:1-4

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain as we enter the rainy season.

Netanyahu’s Victory and Tabernacles

28 09 2023

Dry Bones victory tour

Sundown tonight is the start of the Feast of Tabernacles. 30,000 Christians are in Israel celebrating with the Israelis. Beginning with Moses’ tabernacle, God revealed His desire to live among men. This was fulfilled in Yeshua as Immanuel, God with us.

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”  John 1:14

Some translations say: “He took up residence among us.” or “He tabernacled among us.”

All of these prophetic events in our day point to Yehovah God keeping His word. I believe Netanyahu’s speech to the UN last week was another step of God’s restoration of Israel. Consider this commentary from the Israeli cartoonist Yaakov Kirschen:

“What was to be a humiliating trip to the U.S. for Netanyahu (long uninvited to the White House) was somehow finessed into a kind of victory tour. The opening event with Elon Musk was a triumph, and potentially, was the birth of a new partnership to face the challenges and opportunities of the fast-evolving future of Artificial Intelligence. The Prime Minister’s UN speech was classic Bibi. When asked about “Normalization” with the Saudis, Netanyahu assured interviewers that it was a sure thing. And he did so with such a twinkle in his eye that I wondered if an agreement between Bibi and MBS had already been reached, in secret.”  Dry Bones

Many Christians have not seen that Saudi Arabia will be on Israel’s side in the Gog and Magog war of Ezekiel 38:13. Sheba and Dedan are in modern Saudi Arabia. Note this comment from Israeli believer and Bible teacher Amir Tsarfati.

“Every time a new peace deal for Israel is on the horizon, fake news on a seven year treaty is spread by irresponsible biblically illiterate people. The normalization with Saudi Arabia is going to fulfill prophecy, but what it fulfills is much different than the one regarding the antichrist. It will fulfill the need for Sheba and Dedan to be on the criticizing side of the Ezekiel 38 invasion to Israel rather than to be part of it.”

When the Saudis join the Abraham Accords it will bring an era of peace between Israel and the Arabs that is necessary before the Gog and Magog invasion. Today’s news is literally the Bible fulfilled. Selah.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for Netanyahu, and for seasonal rains.

Eyewitness to Israel Prophecy Fulfilled

20 09 2023

Date Palms

Last week I was walking the streets of Jerusalem (with 34 of my closest friends). The joy of seeing God’s historic promises fulfilled right before my eyes was overwhelming. When I was two years old there was no country of Israel, but in 1948 Israel was miraculously raised from the dead! God is blessing, restoring, forgiving, and showing heavenly favor to His beloved people.

“For Yehovah your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills; a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper. When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless Yehovah your God for the good land which He has given you.”  Deuteronomy 8:7-10

Most people assume the honey mentioned here was honey from bees, but it was actually date honey. Date palms were everywhere as we drove around the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan Valley, and the Dead Sea. They were just like the picture. September is the time of the ripening harvest. They have even resurrected ancient date trees that are now producing fruit! Some seeds found at Qumran, near the Dead Sea, were over 2,000 years old and they have now sprouted and are producing delicious dates.

The miracle rebirth of Israel is seen throughout the land. And it is a sign that the life of Yehovah God in the hearts of His people will also sprout and grow life from Messiah Yeshua. Yehovah has the final say!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain as we enter the rainy season.

Back from Israel – Wow!

16 09 2023

Israel Camel ride 9-23

Glory to God in the highest! The camel ride was a bonus. Seven camels, times two riders, times two trips. Everyone (28 chose to ride) of our group of 35 was able to ride a camel for about ten minutes. The experience at Genesis Land in the Judean desert was amazing. We had lunch with “Abraham” in his tent with his epic hospitality spiced with humor and information. And the meal was one of the best on our tour!

We were so blessed to be joined my Michael and Serah Masambu from Kenya. Twenty-nine were seeing the glorious land for the first time. Each day we experienced two or three spiritual highlights. It will take a while to process the deep moving of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. We will never be the same. Thank you Jesus!

One of the most exhilarating moments was the boat ride on the sea of Galilee. We sang and prayed and worshipped and celebrated connecting to our spiritual roots. I do not have words to express the glory of Yehovah revealed to us at every stop along the way. I can’t wait to return next June with another group.

“Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says Yehovah, “that it shall no more be said, ‘Yehovah lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of Egypt,’ but, ‘Yehovah lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had driven them.’ For I will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers.”  Jeremiah 16:14-15

“Behold, I will gather them out of all countries where I have driven them in My anger, in My fury, and in great wrath; I will bring them back to this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely. They shall be My people, and I will be their God; then I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me. Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul.”  Jeremiah 32:37-41

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and seasonal rains. We saw the first shower of the rainy season!

Next Week in Jerusalem

1 09 2023

A220-100-Delta-

So, we fly Tuesday to Israel and begin our tour. Most of our 37 member group are going for the first time. It is so exciting to witness the revelation of our faithful God that each one experiences in His holy land. It is the land of promise; and to see it in person seems to affirm and confirm His covenant on an intimate level, while equally glimpsing the big picture glory of God’s plan.

Millions of Jews from 160+ countries have become Israelis overnight just by moving to His land. I have been stirred by the Holy Spirit for many years with the prophecy of Ezekiel 36. Yehovah commanded him to literally “speak to the dirt,” to prophesy to the geographical land itself. Read it and enjoy the ancient promises that are now fulfilled before our eyes!

We are in the period of restoration that the prophets foretold. God’s people got their land back, their nation back, and they got their language back. Hebrew was not spoken as a mother tongue for over a thousand years. In addition they regained sovereignty over their capital city, Jerusalem. God turned the page from judgement to favor in a day in 1948. I teach how Psalm 102 prophetically describes the Holocaust and then makes this profound declaration of one of greatest hinges of history. The amazing turning point is announced in verse 13, which declares the set timing of God’s fulfillment, following the horrors of the Holocaust.

“You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, has come.”  Psalm 102:13

Few prophecies are as clearly seen in actual history in this generation. There is no ambiguity here. The Psalm and the events of recent history are perfectly aligned. Read Psalm 102 yourself. I can’t get away from the thrilling revelation of that prophecy. Verse 18 also reveals the timing, but you have to go to the Hebrew text for clarity. English translations say the Psalm is written for “a future generation” or, “a generation to come.” But in Hebrew it is very specific and literally says: “for the last generation.” This is now, folks. We are living in the last generation.

“This will be written for the generation last, (literal Hebrew) that a people yet to be created may praise Yehovah.”  Psalm 102:18

Every time I go to Israel I am overwhelmed with the faithfulness of Yehovah God. It is the miracle of God keeping His word to a thousand generations. You see it, and even touch it, when you travel to Israel for yourself. Please pray for our journey that each new person will experience that joy!

“But as God is faithful, our word to you was not Yes and No. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes. For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.”  2 Corinthians 1:18-20

Just as Yeshua (Jesus) is the fulfillment of all the Messianic prophesies, Israel is the fulfillment of the literal land covenant prophesies. They are intertwined, inseparable threads of the majestic tapestry of God’s story of redemption. Thank you, Jesus!

Please pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for Jesus, the Prince of Peace, Yeshua Sar Shalom!

The Temperature That Melts Gold

23 08 2023

We recently watched a video of metallurgy caves discovered near the site of Mt. Sinai in Saudi Arabia (ancient Midian). It is possible that those man-made caves were used to melt the precious metals for Moses’ tabernacle. Midian is where Moses saw the burning bush. At that time God told Moses to bring Israel out of Egypt to the same mountain of the burning bush.

God answered, “I will be with you. And this is your sign that I am the one who has sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God at this VERY mountain.”  Exodus 3:12 NLT

The video mentioned that gold melts at 1,948 degrees. The amazing thought struck us that Israel was resurrected in 1948, the number of gold melting. When you connect this to the Holocaust, the most horrible deaths of six million Jews, it sounds like gold and silver refined in the fire. Out of the evil, Satanic destruction of the Holocaust, God produced the glorious rebirth of His Chosen People!

“I will bring theone-third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘Yehovah is my God.’ ”  Zechariah 13:9

Yehovah God is faithful and He is able to turn the worst evil around to fulfill His promises to His loved ones. God is Love!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the restoration of rain to His Land.

Walk About Zion

17 08 2023

7

Our small Israel tour of 37 folks departs on Sept 5th. Our anticipation grows more each day now. I have often said that visiting Israel is like a salmon returning to its spawning grounds for me. My life changed forever my first trip in 1984; and every time since then I am deeply moved seeing the living proof of Yehovah God’s faithfulness to fulfill His word, His promises, and His heart toward His people.

“Walk about Zion, and go all around her. ​​Count her towers; mark well her bulwarks; consider her palaces; ​​that you may tell it to the generation following. ​​For this is God, our God forever and ever; ​​He will be our ​​guide even to death.”  Psalm 48:12-14

It is thrilling to see with our own eyes the living proof of the resurrection of Israel. Zion is a name that also refers to the city of Jerusalem as it does in this Psalm and many others. God’s number one prayer request is that we pray for its peace, but being there is transcendent. You somehow seem to enter in, not only to the gates of Jerusalem, but into the very heart of God. The beginning of Psalm 48 is so powerful.

“Great is Yehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in His holy mountain. ​​Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. ​​God is in her palaces; ​​He is known as her refuge.”  Psalm 48:1-3

Wow! This Psalm is a revelation of the place of Jerusalem in the Kingdom of God. It is where our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Messiah, lived and ministered. He died there and was raised from the dead there. He ascended to heaven from there, and He is returning there, to Jerusalem, to establish His eternal Kingdom! He will rule on the throne of David who first made it his capital over 3,000 years ago. We even walk among the ruins of King David’s palace. Walk about Zion!

(Start praying now for our next tour June 18-28 next year! More details later.)

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the promised rains of water and the Holy Spirit.

The Cartoon View from Israel

10 08 2023

Dry Bones Abraham Discords

There is sharply contrasting news as viewed from Israel, compared with U.S. media. This is a particular problem for American Jews. Today I am sharing the view of an honored Israeli cartoonist who started publishing his satirical cartoons for the Jerusalem Post in 1973. Yaakov Kirschen represents an insiders perspective of Israel news.

“U.S. President Joe Biden’s attempt to cobble together some kind of Israeli-Saudi normalization deal before the 2024 American election is, it seems to me, doomed to fail. It feels like Joe has been led astray by Tom Friedman at the New York Times. Unfortunately Friedman has the U.S. president’s ear and the trust of a great many American Jews. And that is not doing us much good. He is working hard to depose the democratically elected government of the Jewish state and THAT is beyond the pale.” Yaakov Kirschen

Today’s Dry Bones cartoon lampoons the bumbling attempt by President Biden to impose himself as a mediator between Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed (aka MBS). There has been very fruitful back channel Israel/Saudi cooperation for several years based on mutual goals. MBS needs Israel to augment his tourist plans for Neom, his Red Sea resort. Joe Biden needs distractions away from his growing legal problems, and also needs political victories for the 2024 election.

The two countries are very close to an agreement, but Biden is inserting a demand on Israel that will kill the deal. He insists on the failed “two-state plan” to be included. Israel will never agree to that plan because it threatens the very existence of Israel. This is a classic example of Joel’s prophetic warning.

“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

For Joe Biden, it is a win-win situation. If Israel agrees, he claims credit. If Netanyahu turns it down, he becomes the scapegoat. Biden can claim he tried. However, the deciding factor is the eternal promises of Yehovah God that He will restore all of the land to Israel. It is the dividers of the land that will be judged.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for seasonal rains.

Fast Rail From Israel to Saudi Arabia

1 08 2023

Train-1320x880

Here is the big news at Israel’s weekly cabinet meeting. Prime Minister Netanyahu announced his $27 billion plan for fast trains from the north of Israel, through the center, and all the way to Eilat on the Red Sea. But the hidden news is the connection continuing through Jordan and Saudi Arabia. This would reach Neom, the futuristic city being built by the Crown Prince on the Red Sea. It is his answer to replace oil revenue with tourism. Mt Sinai tourism is also Netanyahu’s answer to the high cost.

Israel Announces $27b. High-Speed Rail Project – “The line, which is to run from Kiryat Shmona to Eilat, could in the future link Israel to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf.”

Cabinet approves fast link trans-Israel railway

Finance Ministry experts said to warn trans-Israel high-speed train a waste of money – “will be too costly to justify given the expected number of passengers, Channel 12 reported Monday”

Most people have not yet heard about the amazing evidence that Mt. Sinai is in that area, which was  ancient Midian. I believe Netanyahu and the Crown Prince have been planning this for years. I wrote about it in this blog post. There is also a great video about it here. 

Split Rock - Screenshot 2022-04-16 001402

This amazing picture is of the split rock which stands in that very area of ancient Midian in Saudi Arabia. It is over 50 feet tall and stands on a hill that is 100 feet. I believe it is the rock where God gave Moses water for his people.

While the world media can only talk about wars and rumors of wars, Yehovah God is steadily revealing His plan for Israel and the Arab states for salvation and restoration.

“Yehovah did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples; but becauseYehovah loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers,Yehovah has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.Therefore know thatYehovah your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;”  Deuteronomy 7:7-9

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and seasonal rains.

The Rising Flood of Judgement

29 07 2023

australia-floods

The signs are all around us. The shaking has begun. All that can be shaken will be. What should we do now? I have been praying for some time that the judgement that will inevitably fall on the Biden Administration, because of his actions against Israel, will be limited to the Administration and not the whole nation. At the end of the ten plagues in Egypt, God made a distinction between the wicked and His people. Yet, we see it coming, so we find refuge in the name of Yehovah and Yeshua ben Yehovah. Here is the word I heard, that really got my attention. The Jordan River of God’s judgement is about to flood the land.

“If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, in which you trusted, they wearied you, then how will you do in the floodplain  of the Jordan?”  Jeremiah 12:5

As we see the growing exposure of corruption at the highest levels, we know it is time to “fasten your seatbelt.” It is a season of shaking and a time to stand strong in the power of the Holy Spirit. Even in the next few days and weeks there is still time to get grounded in Him. Put on your armor, seek His presence, and stand in faith. Listen for His voice. Jesus said He will never leave us or forsake us, even to the end.

I am not talking about hiding. This is the most pregnant time in history to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom. Jesus is King! We have read the end of the book, and we win. It is time to wake up, stand up, and speak up. Victory is ours! Be ready to share Jesus will every single person highlighted by the Holy Spirit. Pray with them for healing, deliverance, and salvation. This is the time we have been waiting for. Buckle up. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and seasonal rains.

God Takes Written Notes of Our Words

26 07 2023

God-is-listening-lg-300x300

Did you know that Yehovah listens to our conversation with one another? Even better, He has a written book of remembrance of our words, if we fear Him and meditate on His name. So, it is not all conversations, but the ones talking about Him! Of course, He can hear every conversation with everybody all the time. But He only has a written record of those who respect Him and think a lot about His name.

“Then those who feared Yehovah spoke to one another, and Yehovah listened and heard them; so a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear Yehovah and who meditate on His name.” Malachi 3:16

That’s not all. He also calls them His own special treasure and offers unique protection for them. God will treat them as a father does a son that he loves.

“They shall be Mine,” says Yehovah of hosts, “On the day that I make them My jewels and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.” Malachi 3:17

Finally, there is a change that takes place, when we talk a lot about God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit. You gain discernment about righteous people and wicked people. Because we are meditating on God, we begin to see how holy God is. The more we get to know Him, the easier it is to find clarity about life and relationships. If we only compare ourselves to one another we may look pretty good. But when we think about how glorious God is, we get a whole new perspective.

“Then you shall again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God
and one who does not serve Him.”  Malachi 3:18

I said last week with Joshua: As for me and my house, we will serve Yehovah!” Let’s talk about Him more. Let our conversations be about Him. He is wonderfully wonderful! Are your conversation being written down for God to keep track of them? They are if they are about Him.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain in season.

Rise of Paganism

20 07 2023

CHOOSE TODAY!

 America has crossed over a terrible line. Paganism is “cool” now, for many. It’s not over, but we are in a life and death crossroads. We are at a choice faced by the children of Israel when they entered the Promised Land under Joshua. We are given a stark choice. Serve God, or serve evil. But the choice is not some nebulous concept of evil, but specifically other gods. If one does not serve Yehovah God intentionally, then by default we serve the purposes and intent of other gods. This is reduced to serving the devil. Most do not openly choose the devil. I am saying to not serve Yehovah has the effect of falling into evil. There is an excellent teaching out now by Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Cahn called “The Return of the gods.”

“Everything in this book, everything in our world is changing, transforming our children, transforming the media, transforming our schools, transforming everything,” Cahn explained. “What if there was a reason? People who are not even believers are saying this is crazy. What’s going on? What if this went back to what the Bible says? What if the gods are not just mythology?”

We are living in a day when people call good evil and evil good. This is not a theory, it is obvious in our culture today. Isaiah saw this day prophetically in Isaiah 5:2.

Our choice today is the same as Joshua gave to Israel when they crossed over Jordan River. There is no middle ground. We either choose the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, or we choose paganism. What is your choice?

“And if it seems evil to you to serve Yehovah, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve Yehovah.”  Joshua 24:15

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rains in season.
