Trump’s Iran Timeline

19 02 2026

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

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

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

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

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Last Nation Standing

12 02 2026

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Disturbing the Peace?

5 02 2026

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jerusalem is Surrounded

22 01 2026

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

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

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

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

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Unilateral, Unconditional, Guaranteed Promise

15 01 2026

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

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

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

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

Wisdom for 2026

1 01 2026

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

God is the #1 Zionist

11 12 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain.

Quick Guide to Islam

13 11 2025

We do NOT worship the same God.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Choose life in Jesus!

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

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

23 10 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

They Shall Proclaim the Praises of Yehovah

9 10 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The End Result of the 20 Point Peace Plan

1 10 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Creator God is Faithful to Israel

25 09 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A Real Plan for Gaza Civilians

4 09 2025

The Israeli sun is rising! February 4th this year President Trump stunned the press corps with his vision for Gaza. Now, eight months later it beginning to take shape. My last two posts discussed the plans for Judea and Samaria (West Bank). But today let’s zero in on Gaza. I believe Trump’s plan is about to be announced. The IDF now control 40% of Gaza City and the end of Hamas is near. Part of the last phase features the voluntary exit of a million or more civilians. Here are recent breaking news accounts of the emerging exodus.

President Trump continues planning significant post-war Gaza reconstruction, including voluntary emigration – Report indicates Trump has not given up on ‘Gaza Riviera’ plan, seeking investors to fund reconstruction.

Notice the screenshot of the cover of the 38 page document detailing his plans. He is serious. The photo is described as: “The GREAT Trust: From a Demolished Iranian Proxy to a Prosperous Abrahamic Ally.” The title, GREAT Trust, is an anacronym for “”Gaza Reconstitution, Economic Acceleration and Transformation Trust.”

Post-War Gaza Plan Sees Relocation of Population, ‘Digital Token’ for Palestinian Land: Washington Post – Anyone who owns land would be offered a “digital token” in exchange for rights to redevelop their property, the Post reported, adding that each Palestinian who left would be provided with $5,000 in cash and subsidies to cover four years of rent. They would also be provided with a year of food, it added.

Secret Gaza makeover plan offers Palestinians $5000 to leave – According to Washington Post, comprehensive proposal would establish decade-long US trusteeship while transforming enclave into tourism and tech hub through voluntary Palestinian departures.

In addition to these articles there is a fascinating discovery on Google Earth apparently showing an extremely large area of thousands of apartment buildings that I estimate could temporarily house possibly up to a million refugees in Egypt only seven miles from the Egypt/Gaza border slightly SE of Rafah. I wish I could show you myself, but please take a moment and see for yourself. This could be connected to the rumored million refugees accepted by Libya. Stay tuned!

Egypt deploys 40,000 troops to Gaza border – Arab media (click for picture).

I believe Egypt is ready to open the Gaza border now, but will not allow Gazans beyond a very tight perimeter which includes the temporary housing that is prepared for them.

Finally, this all fits within Biblical prophecy. I have previously detailed the four Gaza Hamas wars since 2005 that ends with God Himself allowing the punishment after the fourth (Amos 1:6-7). Notice verse seven clearly describes the vast destruction of Gaza buildings that we see in the news. Here is one more prophecy that I believe applies to Gaza in our day.

Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, The nation of the Cherethites! The word of Yehovah is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines: “I will destroy you; so there shall be no inhabitant.”  Zephaniah 2:5

Cherethites = “executioners” according to Strong’s Concordance. Some translations say “assassins” which pretty well describes Hamas and all terrorists, including suicide bombers. This even suggests the inhabitants will be gone, none left. That will be the result of Trump’s plan. I get excited when I see the Bible and the news coinciding. I could be wrong, of course, but let’s keep our eyes open.

We faithfully continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and wisdom from above for the leaders!

Clan Plan Confirmed by Scripture

28 08 2025

Last week I wrote about the Secret Solution to Gaza and the West Bank. Here is an amazing revelation from the prophet Zechariah that details exactly my point last Thursday. Each phrase is remarkably describing what is now happening in Israel and the West Bank (Judea and Samaria). First, let me acknowledge that most translations differ from the New Living Translation in this case. However, my study of Strong’s Concordance, the Hebrew text, and even the root words behind the text reveal this present day unfolding scenario. Let’s look at it.

“Foreigners will occupy the city of Ashdod. I will destroy the pride of the Philistines. I will grab the bloody meat from their mouths and snatch the detestable sacrifices from their teeth. Then the surviving Philistines will worship our God and become like a clan in Judah. The Philistines of Ekron will join my people, as the ancient Jebusites once did.”  Zechariah 9:6-7 NLT

It has been proven by DNA that today’s Palestinians are Arabs. They are not descendants from the ancient Philistines. But, they have appropriated the spirit of the Philistines, a geographical principality that hates God and His choice to bless Israel with the eternal deed to the land. That is why Hamas behaves precisely like the ancient enemy of Israel. Look at Zechariah’s declaration as referencing today’s Palestinians.

  1. Yehovah will destroy their pride. Certainly pride and arrogance emanates from them.
  2. He will remove their bloody purpose: seen from suicide bombers to over 1,400 mostly civilians murdered and taken hostage in the worst single day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
  3. After the conclusive judgement of the fourth war in 20 years, (see Amos 1:6-7) some will survive and worship Yehovah. This may indicate they will accept Yeshua and the God of Israel.
  4. They will “become like a clan in Judah!” This is the actual desire of the clans who request recognition from Israel. Be sure to read last week’s “Secret Solution” post.
  5. They will join Israel as the “ancient Jebusites once did.” The Holy Spirit through Zechariah cites the Biblical precedent to justify non-Jews being included in the nation of  Israel.

This is the “secret solution” about to be revealed to the world. I believe Gaza civilians will be allowed to voluntarily evacuate Gaza for other Arab/Muslim nations. The clans who remain in the West Bank, especially Hebron, will reject Hamas and even the Palestinian Authority from ruling over them. They will recognize Israel as the Jewish state and join the Abraham Accords. Israel will allow self-government in their clans or “emirates” and eventually grant Israeli citizenship through annexation. Is this too marvelous in our eyes? God is able!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for wisdom and courage for all the leaders (including the clans) to do the right thing!

Secret Solution for Gaza and West Bank

21 08 2025

All the media talk is fixated on a “two-state” concept that is so dead that even diplomats are waking up. Yet there is a brilliant solution about to emerge. Israel’s enemies still clamor for two states but in truth they insist on one state: Palestine. The radical terrorists have been driving the bus for too long. It is time for Arabs who recognize Israel to have their say. I am speaking not of Arab Israelis who are happy being citizens, but the Arab League, who has made a major turn.

In 1st, entire Arab League condemns Oct. 7, urges Hamas to disarm – Arab and Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan and Turkey, signed a declaration Tuesday condemning for the first time Hamas’s onslaught of October 7, 2023, and calling on the Palestinian terror group to release all the hostages it is holding, disarm and end its rule of Gaza, in a bid to end the devastating war in the Strip.

Admittedly, they also called for a Palestinian state but that part will not happen for two reasons. Yehovah God Himself has deeded the land to Israel in the Bible. Plus, Israel will never go back to Oct 7 with terrorists on their border. Prime Minister has declared this and is backed up by President Trump.

Trump States Hamas Must Be ‘Confronted and Destroyed’ as Gaza City Residents Evacuate Ahead of IDF Offensive – “We will only see the return of the remaining hostages when Hamas is confronted and destroyed!!! The sooner this takes place, the better the chances of success will be,”

The secret plan emerging is a complete rejection of not only Hamas, but also the Palestinian Authority. The former Mayor of Jerusalem, MK Nir Barkat, has been quietly meeting with Arab sheikhs who control clans (700,000 Arabs) throughout the West Bank (Judea and Samaria). They reject the terrorists and will recognize Israel. The rule in the Middle East has been by families or clans for thousands of years. It is the natural solution.

Hebron sheikhs want to leave Palestinian Authority, join Abraham Accords – “We want cooperation with Israel,” says Sheikh Wadee’ al-Jaabari. “We want coexistence.” Sheikh Wadee’ al-Jaabari and four other prominent clan leaders from Hebron have signed a letter pledging peace and full recognition of Israel as a Jewish state. Their plan: Hebron would secede from the Palestinian Authority, establish an independent emirate, and join the Abraham Accords.

Minister Barkat: ‘Emirates plan an excellent alternative to Palestinian state’ – Economy Minister Nir Barkat tells Arutz Sheva the proposal of creating “Emirates” in Judea and Samaria is the best option for all parties in the long run and has the best chance of success. “This is a governance model based on tribes, which has proven to be the most successful model in the Arab world.”

“When the Most High divided their inheritance to the nations, when He separated the sons of Adam, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.”  Deuteronomy 32:8

“And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;”  Acts 17:26-27

We need to pray that the wisdom of this solution will be seen by all and especially President Trump. True boundaries are set by God. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and that the leaders will hear God’s voice, have courage, and do the right thing!

Where Does God Rest?

14 08 2025

We know He rested on the seventh day of creation, but where does He rest? We also know that He neither slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4). But He does rest. So, does He have a special place? Some people think of God as a great mystery, even unknowable. But the opposite is true. Yehovah God reveals Himself literally all over the place. He can be seen in the design of His creative masterpieces from the universe down to the tiniest atom or quark. His crowning creation is man. He is also seen in the never-ending beauty and variety every flower, fish, bird, and even people. But the most detailed revelation of His personality, character, and even His purpose is spelled out in plain language in the Bible. This God-breathed record of History (which is His-Story) also reveals intimate details about Himself. But still I ask: Where does God rest?

“Let us go into His tabernacle; ​​Let us worship at His footstool. ​​Arise, O Yehovah, to Your resting place,​​You and the ark of Your strength.”  Psalm 132:7-8

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

His resting place is in Zion, forever! The name Zion has many facets. It refers interchangeably to the land of Israel, the mountain, and the city of Jerusalem. As a Christian Zionist, I believe God gave the whole land to Israel in an everlasting covenant. But even more exciting is that He dwells there, it is His resting place! While journeying through the wilderness and for nearly four hundred years at Shiloh after Joshua’s conquest, God dwelt in Moses’ Tabernacle. But that was just His RV for travel. His ultimate eternal resting place is Zion/Jerusalem! Even when the Messiah Yeshua comes He will reign in Jerusalem. No wonder the world goes crazy against the Jews and Jerusalem, both His people and His resting place. Man’s ultimate rebellion against God is against His resting place.

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.” Psalm 122:6-7

I like to say that this verse is God’s #1 prayer request. We pray in agreement with His purpose and rest.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Final Push in Gaza

7 08 2025

Israel has made their decision. Today Israel announced they will take total control of Gaza and eliminate Hamas. Netanyahu to Fox News: “We intend to militarily take control of the entire Gaza Strip, to free the civilian population, dismantle Hamas, and transfer it to an alternative government.” Here is a link to the Fox News interview where Netanyahu calls for Hamas to be eliminated and hostages released. (As I finish this post it is after midnight in Israel and the cabinet is still debating, I will update here when they are finished.) (After over 10 hours of debate the cabinet agreed to occupy Gaza City.)

Trump doesn’t oppose Netanyahu plan for full Gaza occupation: – President Trump does not oppose Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to launch a new military operation to occupy the entire Gaza Strip, U.S. and Israeli officials say.

Rubio: There will be no peace until Hamas is disbanded – global attention must also focus on freeing the 20 hostages held by Hamas and disarming the terror group.

Time to revisit Amos as we see the end of the fourth war in Gaza in 20 years. They keep attacking Israeli civilians in what the Bible calls “transgressions.”

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

Remember that it is Yehovah God who says He will not “turn away” the punishment of Gaza. It is now time for the final act. God is faithful to keep His word. He not only speaks truth, but He acts to make sure it comes to pass just as He promised. Man speaks many words without doing, but God performs every word He speaks!

Then Yehovah said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over my word to perform it.”  Jeremiah 1:12 ESV

Also remember that during the plagues of Exodus, Pharoah hardened his heart at first, but then Yehovah hardened Pharoah’s heart. I believe that God has hardened Hamas’ heart at this point.

We must pray intentionally for God’s word to be fulfilled at this very time. The last battles could be tough. Pray for supernatural victory with minimal deaths. Pray for protection of the hostages and the troops and wisdom for the leaders. Now is the time!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Anti-Semites Hate God

31 07 2025

Behind the uproar is a solid Biblical truth. The rise in hatred of Jews and Christians is not social; it is spiritual. The source of Jew and Israel hate is hatred of God, because He chose them! In the last days this is extended to hate of Christians for the same reason. Rebellion from God is the motivation.

“Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, and do not be still, O God! For behold, YOUR enemies make a tumult; and those who hate YOU have lifted up their head. … For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against YOU:”  Psalm 83:1-2,5

Since God’s enemies can’t touch God, they attack His chosen people. They purpose to eliminate Israel completely, even from memory. That is a powerful hatred. But they will fail! Yehovah God will keep His eternal covenant with His people Israel. The great news is that we Christians have been added into the “commonwealth of Israel,” according to Romans 11:17 and Ephesians 2:12-16. In the end the true believers from Jews and Gentiles are all part of God’s redeemed as “one new man.” Of course it also means that Christian believers are also now the target of that ancient hatred of God.

“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 83:3-4

This Sunday is the “9th of Av” This date of the month of Av on the Jewish calendar has a horrible list of tragedies against the Jews throughout history. Here is just a partial list:

The evil report of the 10 spies (Numbers 13-14) — The destruction of the 1st and 2nd temples — The expulsion of Jews from England France and Spain and the beginning of WWI — The deportation of Jews from the Warsaw ghetto to Treblinka — The expulsion from Gaza in 2005 Curt Landry Ministries

These events all happened at the same time of year. No wonder Jews observe these days with solemn mourning and reflection. Yet, Israel is alive today and the empires who conquered them are gone!

Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arab Muslim Caliphates, Ottomans, and British are all no longer empires! Yet Israel lives! Am Israel Chai! The people of Israel live!

Finally, all of this hateful antisemitism has a silver lining. There is hope. The attention to it has caused many to reexamine Israel. There is a great opportunity now to share the good news of the restoration of Israel because God is faithful. Plus, since He is showing Himself faithful to them, our faith is encouraged and energized to spread the Gospel of Yeshua, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Salvation Through Fire

24 07 2025

May the FOURTH be with you. This meme is a great play on words from the Star Wars quote: “May the force be with you.” We are living in turbulent times with many living in great fear and even terror. The whole world is shaking and many are losing hope. However, we serve the God who delivers through fire. It is not that believers always escape tragedy, but that He has promised to be with us no matter the outcome. The great story of the three Hebrew young men in the fiery furnace of Babylon is the Bible promise.

“If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.”  Daniel 3:17-18

They knew that God could save them from the fire, but they also had already decided that they would serve God either way. They were willing to die rather than worship the false image of a pagan king. Then when the king heated the furnace seven time hotter the astounding deliverance occurred. A fourth man was seen in the fire.

“Look!” he answered, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. Then Nebuchadnezzar went near the mouth of the burning fiery furnace and spoke, saying, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here.” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego came from the midst of the fire. And the satraps, administrators, governors, and the king’s counselors gathered together, and they saw these men on whose bodies the fire had no power; the hair of their head was not singed nor were their garments affected, and the smell of fire was not on them. Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who sent His Angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and they have frustrated the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they should not serve nor worship any god except their own God!”  Daniel 3:25-28

Jesus appeared with them in the fire! The king even praised Yehovah God in the end. Jesus Himself promised that He would neither leave us or forsake us.

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.” So we may boldly say: ​​“Yehovah is my helper; ​​I will not fear. ​​What can man do to me?”  Hebrews 13:5-6

Do not fear! He is with us to the end whether we are delivered immediately or not. We will be together with Him for eternity. He is the fourth one in the fires of life!

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

Gaza Gambit 2.0

10 07 2025

Five months ago PM Netanyahu and Pres. Trump announced a bombshell plan for Gaza. Where are we now? This week, they have met again in DC, several times. Bibi has been meeting with every top official also found time to honor the two young people killed at the DC Israeli Embassy. The reason Bibi came to meet with the President was to discuss a Gaza cease fire, along with Iran, Syria, and several other items.

No deal has been announced as I write this and Netanyahu is flying home this evening. My view is that the main discussion was about what I call The Gaza Gambit 2.0. I wrote about it here. But much has transpired since February. I believe Trump has arranged countries who will absorb voluntary Gaza refugees. Timing is everything as usual, but I see it all lining up like ducks in a row.

The great victory over Iran clears the way for each step. Syria is about ready. Lebanon is close. The Houtis need to be defeated and Hamas completely neutralized. We are closer every day. Will a ceasefire create another delay? Possibly, but not for long. The Saudis and other nations are on the brink of agreeing to join the Abraham Accords paving the way for the “exceptional” peace we have been talking about from Ezekiel 38. It is quite satisfying to me that most prophetic commentators are now seeing this peace before the Gog and Magog War.

I believe our two national leaders are in lock step with the purpose of God. The final plan is His. Yehovah has been faithfully executing His plan over many years, bringing it to this time of manifestation. The time is now. Never again is now. We are not turning back from this prophetic moment. It is God’s moment. I rest in this Bible verse about the nature and character of Yehovah God. Nothing else matters.

For Yehovah of hosts has purposed, and who will annul it? His hand is stretched out, and who will turn it back?”  Isaiah 14:27

Isaiah was talking about God’s purpose with Assyria, but uses this fact that when God speaks no one can annul it. “Every promise of God is yes and amen!”  2 Corinthians 1:20

God has a purpose for Gaza and no man or demon can annul it!

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

Grasp the Sleeve of a Jewish Man

4 07 2025
“Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ‘In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.” Zechariah 8:23

Why does the Bible tell Gentiles to grab the sleeve of a Jewish man?  Israel is rising as a superpower in the Middle East. What is happening? How is that possible? Does this prophecy from Zechariah speak of our day? The miracle restoration of Israel in one generation is unprecedented. It is marvelous! What does that say about Israel’s future? Did God bring them back to their land to kill them? Or, is the His Divine Plan being manifest before our eyes. I believe it is part of the great harvest of souls in the last days. There is a great awakening coming not only in America, but around the world. Jews and Arabs are coming to Jesus. Israel is rising to a new place in the earth. (10 reasons why Israel matters to America)

“Thus says Yehovah of hosts: ​‘​Peoples shall yet come, ​​Inhabitants of many cities; ​​The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, ​​“Let us continue to go and pray before Yehovah, and seek Yehovah of hosts. ​​I myself will go also.” ​​Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek Yehovah of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before Yehovah.”  Zechariah 8:20-22

Does this have anything to do with Yeshua? Remember when most of His disciples left him? Those who stayed with Him would not let go. That is what is happening in our day. People are seeing Yeshua as the Jew to follow. Ten times as many Gentiles are getting saved now, but His own will soon follow Him as well.

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”  John 6: 66-69

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and wisdom in this week’s decisions in Washington, DC.

The Unthinkable 12 Day War

26 06 2025

There is no question that no one saw it coming. Defeating Iran in 12 days, crippling Hezbollah with pagers and walkie talkies, the fall of Syria’s dictator, Lebanon reborn, Hamas on the ropes? Unthinkable! That word can be applied to each of those events. I remember a line from the Princess Bride movie: “You Keep Using That Word, I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means.” Shall we keep going? How about the soon major expansion of the Abraham Accords including Saudi Arabia, Syria, Lebanon and others? How many events can be unthinkable one after the other? There is only one explanation for all of these amazing results. God is supernaturally working! He has a plan and a promise. He is faithfully fulfilling His word. We live in Biblical times. Time and again throughout the Scriptures God delivered His people from their enemies. He is doing it again today. Consider Joshua of old… or Netanyahu and Trump today.

“And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes have seen all that Yehovah your God has done to these two kings; so will Yehovah do to all the kingdoms through which you pass. ‘You must not fear them, for Yehovah your God Himself fights for you.’ “Then I pleaded with Yehovah at that time, saying: ‘O Lord Yehovah, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your mighty hand, for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do anything like Your works and Your mighty deeds?”  Deuteronomy 3:22-24

God fights for Israel and blesses those who bless Israel! Israel’s War of Independence in 1948 was won against the Arab Legion of seven Arab armies. The amazing and miraculous Six Day War in June 1967 was by the hand of God. And now the humiliating defeat of a terror superpower in twelve days demonstrates again the intervening, almighty power of the living God. This truly is a defeat of the pagan god of Islam. Their chant of “Allah Akbar” is always mistranslated in Western media. It is not “god is great.” They say their god is the “greatest.” It has always been a spiritual war. It may not be over, but our God Yehovah is advancing! The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the true, living, and faithful Father God!

Keep praying for God’s Kingdom to advance. There are many more to be saved! Pray for the true peace of Jerusalem, Yeshua Sar Shalom/Jesus Prince of Peace.

The Rising Lion of Iran

19 06 2025

Notice the two different flags, followed by a meme sent to the Iranian people by Israel. Prime Minister Netanyahu was suggesting to the Iranian people that it is time for them to rise up and take back their country!

“The Iranian red, white and green flag exists in two versions: One represents the Islamic regime with the stylized red symbol which represents the name “Allah” written in Arabic and also symbolizes the value of being a martyr for the jihadi cause. The other shows a lion and a sun, from the time of the Shah before the Islamic takeover in 1978-9.”  One For Israel

Netanyahu named the military attack on Iran as: Operation Rising Lion. It has a dual meaning. One is that Israel, the Lion of Judah, is arising. But also that Iran can rise.

He quoted Numbers 23:24 “Look, a people rises like a lioness, and lifts itself up like a lion; It shall not lie down until it devours the prey, And drinks the blood of the slain.”

This verse is from the time when the false prophet Balaam tried to curse Israel but he could not. He could only speak blessing. I believe even now when Iran and much of the world is trying to curse Israel, they will fail. God has commanded the blessing and restoration of Israel and it cannot be reversed! Hallelujah! The meme of the lion standing upright over an Israeli fighter jet conveys the message. Notice the sun behind the lion in the original Iran flag and the meme. It is a clear call for the Iranian people to rise up like a lion.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Iran! May Yehovah God bring not only peace, but also salvation to Jews, Arabs, Persians, and all the surrounding people.

Riots, Iran, and the Bible

12 06 2025

Rumors of riots in America, and Iran is about to explode, yet God is in control. Whether you consider a major geopolitical crisis or a personal crisis in your own life, faith in God is your anchor. For many years we have sung this simple chorus:

“This is the day…This is the day… That the Lord has made…That the Lord has made. We will rejoice…We will rejoice… and be gland in it, and be glad in it.”

But, do you know that this little song is in the Bible? As we watch the clock run out on Iran and the inevitable destruction of their nuclear program, there is comfort in Scripture. God is in control every day, not just the good days when everything is going well. We must not fear the unknown.  It is only unknown to us, not to God. He sees the end from the beginning and He has a plan. He knows. Where is this song in the Bible and what is the context? Did you know Jesus sang this song at the Last Supper, His Passover meal with the disciples?

“This is the day the LORD (Yehovah) has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.”  Psalm 118:24

“In Mark 14, we’re told that Jesus and his disciples celebrated Passover and sang a hymn before going out to the garden of Gethsemane. So what hymn did they sing? Rabbinic tradition going back to the time of Jesus records that during Passover, Jewish people sang Psalm 113-118, a collection of songs known as the Passover Hallel.”  Bible Project

Psalm 118 is talking about the Messiah Yeshua and ends instructing the sacrifice be bound to the altar and indicates that this reveals that God is good! The worst moment in Jesus’ life and the apparent victory of Satan shows the goodness of Yehovah! His death on the cross is good! It is the provision of salvation for all who will believe in Him. The little chorus we sing is directly pointing to the sacrifice of the Lamb of God. This is the day to be glad and rejoice. This day of Jesus’ death is victory over death!

“God is Yehovah, and He has given us light; ​​Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar. ​​You are my God, and I will praise You; ​​You are my God, I will exalt You. ​​Oh, give thanks to Yehovah, for He is good! ​​For His mercy endures forever.”  Psalm 118:27-29

Jesus Himself sang those words just hours before His temptation in Gethsemane’s Garden and His crucifixion. He knew the Father’s plan. He obeyed to the end and became the Savior of the world. THAT day was the most important day in history. So, be sure to see current world events and even your own personal events from God’s perspective. Is God worried about Iran and Israel, or riots in Los Angeles? No, and He can handle what you are going through. It does not always appear that things are heading in the right direction, but God is in control! Do not yield to the spirit of fear, but rather yield to the Holy Spirit of Yehovah God. Trust in God! (Please check out my previous blog posts about riots, below.)

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

God’s Specific Real Estate Promise

5 06 2025

We must not forget the literal land promise that God vowed to keep for Israel. His integrity is on the line. His severe judgement on Israel scattered them to all the nations, but He promised He would bring them back to the actual geographical land of Israel. Two weeks ago I wrote about Ezekiel 20, but there is more.

“For on My holy mountain, on the mountain height of Israel,” says the Lord Yehovah, “there all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, shall serve Me; there I will accept them, and there I will require your offerings and the first fruits of your sacrifices, together with all your holy things. I will accept you as a sweet aroma when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered; and I will be hallowed in you before the Gentiles. Then you shall know that I am Yehovah, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I raised My hand in an oath to give to your fathers.”  Ezekiel 20:40-42

He raised His hand in an oath! There is no greater authority. God will return their land to them because He promised and He cannot lie. Yehovah’s very character and His name in intertwined with Israel’s destiny. God is married to Israel and to the land! (Beulah in Hebrew means: Married.)

“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.”  Isaiah 62:4

“Then say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;”  Ezekiel 37:21

“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 36:28

The promise is not simply to an ethnic people but to an actual geographical location on the globe. There are three reasons why this fact is significant. First, the promise being geographical indicates that we should not lean to a symbolic or spiritualized interpretation of the prophecy. Secondly, it is evidence that God’s promises to the people of Israel do not stand alone but are directly connected to previously established promises to the land. The third and most important reason is what this promise says about the character of God. He is the God who keeps His word. We see this promise fulfilled right before our eyes from 1948 to the present. Hallelujah!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Fishers, Hunters, and Ezekiel 20

22 05 2025

Domestic terrorism has moved from violent protests to premeditated murder. The tragic terror killing of two Israeli Embassy workers in Washington, DC takes terror to another level. The fact that the victims were Jewish believers in Jesus simply amplifies the implications. For years Iran has said Israel is the little Satan and America is the big Satan. Jihadists have also said for years: “First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.” Now we see it on our own soil. What does the Bible say about these prophetic times? Here is a principle of fishers and hunters revealed in Jeremiah 16 about the regathering of Israel from all the countries where they had been scattered in Divine judgement.

“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. Behold, I will send for many fishermen,” says Yehovah, “and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.”  Jeremiah 16:14-16

First comes the invitation and positive encouragement for Jews to return to the land of Israel. After that will come hunters. This suggests violence. This pattern is clearly seen in Nazi Germany in the 1930s and 1940s. The United States has about 6-7 million Jews, almost as many as Israel with around 8 million. Last night’s terror attack suggest the hunters may be on the move. We must pray that America’s Jews will obey the Holy Spirit impulse to return to Israel, the land of their fathers.

One more Bible reference is revealing. Ezekiel warns of a time when God will separate the rebellious Jews from those who obey Yehovah’s voice. In my studied opinion, the “wilderness of the peoples” refers to the U.S. If true, then we are entering the season of separating out the rebels.

“As I live,” says the Lord Yehovah, “surely with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out, I will rule over you. I will bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you are scattered, with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out. And I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there I will plead My case with you face to face. Just as I pleaded My case with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will plead My case with you,” says the Lord Yehovah. I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant; I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the country where they dwell, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am Yehovah.”  Ezekiel 20:33-38

Pray that American Jews will heed the call and be blessed through obedience. Pray for Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump for wisdom from above. And PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM!

Jerusalem Under Siege by Babylon, Buy Now!

24 04 2025

The art of the deal is a hot topic in 2025, but maybe the best deal in the Bible was when Jeremiah bought land as Jerusalem was surrounded by Nebuchadnezzar’s army. It led to the total destruction of the city. Why did God tell Jeremiah to buy land then? One commentator said it was the worst deal ever. But I disagree. Jerusalem was literally under siege and Jeremiah was in prison, but Yehovah knew the end from the beginning. I imagine he bought the land for a song, considering the hopeless situation. But 70 years later, Israel returned with the backing of Cyrus, King of Persia and much wealth. Suddenly Jeremiah’s land was extremely valuable. Of course, that is not the main story.

God had him buy it as a prophetic act, signaling the promise of God to bring His people back from captivity. It is about the faithfulness of God. Israel had sinned, worshipping idols and pagan gods, but God was faithful! They deserved, yes, even earned their severe judgement, but God promised their fathers He would bless Israel. Look how Jeremiah trusted God in response to the ridiculous idea of buying property during a war with defeat inevitable. (In your investments, listen to God!)

“Now when I had delivered the purchase deed to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to Yehovah, saying: ‘Ah, Lord Yehovah! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You. You show lovingkindness to thousands, and repay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them—the Great, the Mighty God, whose NAME is Yehovah of hosts. You are great in counsel and mighty in work, for Your eyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, to give everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings’… Then the word of Yehovah came to Jeremiah, saying, “Behold, I am Yehovah, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?”  Jeremiah 32:16-19 and 26-27

God answered him by a mighty declaration followed by His plan. He will destroy their generation because of their sin, but He will bring them back from captivity and again they will buy and sell land and live in peace worshipping Yehovah!

“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. And fields will be bought in this land of which you say, “It is desolate, without man or beast; it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.” Men will buy fields for money, sign deeds and seal them, and take witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South; for I will cause their captives to return,’ says Yehovah.”  Jeremiah 32:42-44

Today we must pray for Bibi Netanyahu, Israel’s Prime Minister and also President Trump for three specific requests. 1. Pray that they hear the wisdom of God. 2. Pray for courage. 3. Pray that they will do the right thing. Hearing and obeying God with action is the only hope for Israel, the US, and for each one of us.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Lamb’s Blood Never Worked

17 04 2025

Passover was never about killing a lamb to remove sin. It was always a picture of the Messiah as the Lamb of Yehovah God. Putting blood on the doorposts was an act of obedience which exempted the family from the severe judgement on Egypt, the death of the firstborn. A little lamb dying never could take away sin. Even under Mosaic law it only covered sin for another year. The Hebrew word for atonement is “covering” in this verse. Sins were forgiven a year at a time.

“And he shall do with the bull as he did with the bull as a sin offering; thus he shall do with it. So the priest shall make atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.”  Leviticus 4:20

“For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.For then would they not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins.But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.”  Hebrews 10:1-4

“By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,”  Hebrews 10:10-12

“Behold, the days are coming, says Yehovah, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah—not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them, says Yehovah.But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says Yehovah: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know Yehovah,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says Yehovah. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”  Jeremiah 31:31-34

God spoke these words to Jeremiah over 500 years before Messiah Yeshua came. It has always been Gods plan. Total forgiveness is His plan! Jesus is the Lamb! The great news is that after He gave His life, He was raised from the dead! That is why we celebrate Resurrection Day every year. Hallelujah to the Lamb!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and deliverance from her enemies!

Why Have Jews Lasted 4,000 Years?

27 03 2025

Do the Jews exist because they are holier than other people? How have they survived as a people for 4,000 years? Many hundreds of nations and people groups have come and gone never to be seen again. How does this one Jewish nation do it? The fact is that it was not them, it was God who did it. They inherited the land because of God’s unconditional promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The land is given to them by Yehovah God “for all time!”

“And because He loved your fathers, therefore He chose their descendants after them; and He brought you out of Egypt with His Presence, with His mighty power, driving out from before you nations greater and mightier than you, to bring you in, to give you their land as an inheritance, as it is this day. Therefore know this day, and consider it in your heart, that Yehovah Himself is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other. You shall therefore keep His statutes and His commandments which I command you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which Yehovah your God is giving you for all time.”  Deuteronomy 4:37-40

This is an unconditional promise. It is based on God’s unchangeable character. God cannot lie. He must restore Israel to their land for His own integrity. God is truth. The people did indeed sin in many generations, even worshipping the Baal gods with baby sacrifice. Yet, He keeps bringing them back to His mercy and forgiveness. Ezekiel 36 literally details His promised restoration in our day, after they were scattered to “all the countries.” Genesis 12 is to Abraham. Genesis 26:3 is to Isaac. He renewed the promise again to Jacob in Genesis 28:13-14.

“Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,” says Yehovah. “Many nations shall be joined to Yehovah in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that Yehovah of hosts has sent Me to you. And Yehovah will take possession of Judah as His inheritance in the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem. Be silent, all flesh, before Yehovah, for He is aroused from His holy habitation!”  Zechariah 2:10-13

Christians understand that if God gave us what we deserve it would be. death, because all have sinned and are guilty before God. It is only through the blood of Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) that we are forgiven. The same is true for Israel Romans 11 tells the beautiful story of Israel’s restoration. They too would be lost if not for our merciful God and His Messiah Son!

“For I am Yehovah, I do not change; Therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.”  Malachi 3:6

God will save Israel and grant their inheritance in the land because He promised it! God is faithful! He will keep His word.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain for the land.

God Present With Gaza Hostages

20 03 2025

Sorry I missed my blog last week. I have returned from the rain forests of Puerto Rico.

Wonderful testimonies are coming out now from Israeli hostages saved from Gaza terrorists. They spoke of miracles, His presence with them, and new found faith in God. Several Bible verses are seen in this real life story of God revealing Himself to them while in captivity. One testified that a small bottle of grape juice never ran out or spoiled. Our 21rst century first-world problems are about stress, frustration with traffic or the high cost of eggs. It is difficult to put ourselves in the shoes of a terrorist hostage. They were beaten, starved, cursed, and expected sudden death daily. Some suffered over 500 days and some are still there. Click on this CBN story headline for more details:

Testimonies of Faith: God’s Presence in the Darkness of Gaza Captivity – How does faith survive in the darkest depths of despair? Even more remarkably, how does someone find faith while held captive and chained in a tunnel 50 meters underground? Former Israeli hostages are sharing extraordinary testimonies of faith and resilience, echoing the experiences of biblical heroes like Daniel, Esther, and Paul.

Hostage Shem Tov (505 days) shared: “During my captivity, I felt every prayer you prayed for me; and even in the darkness, I had light.” This verse was fulfilled for him personally!

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”  Psalm 23:4 ESV

“So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For Yehovah your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”  Deuteronomy 31:6 NLT

Another verse was quoted by several hostages that has a vital connection to Biblical faith. There is deeper revelation in this short verse. First, it declares that Yehovah lives, but it also reveals a great truth about His nature. The last word, “one” carries a fascinating revelation of God that few have considered.

“Hear, O Israel: Yehovah our God, Yehovah is one!”  Deuteronomy 6:4

The Hebrew word for “one” here is “echad.” It means a plurality or unity of one. It is used in Genesis where man and woman are “one” flesh. It is also used of the twelve tribes as “one” nation. Why is this important? The use of “echad” indicates that God is a plurality of one, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Another Hebrew word that was notably NOT used is the word for one, “yachid,” which means an “indivisible one.” Man was created in God’s image: spirit, soul, and body. We have three dimensions as well! The very next verse seems to confirm this.

“You shall love Yehovah your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”  Deuteronomy 6:5

Again, the three parts of man are mentioned. We need to pray, not only for the remaining hostages, but for those already released who need healing and restoration. Also, continue to pray for the salvation of both Jews and Arabs. God is very much speaking to them in their trials. Pray that they hear His voice!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, wisdom for the leaders, and an end to the war.

Miracle Discovery of Bus Bombs Today

20 02 2025

Israel has just discovered multiple bus time-bombs today! Simultaneously five different buses exploded in Israel in their parking lots at 8:30 pm Israel time, 1:30 pm Eastern time. Multiple more bombs were discovered in buses and light rail in a large area. They were on timers set to explode at 8:30 am during rush hour tomorrow. By the grace of God some were accidently programmed wrong with pm instead of am. Yehovah God is protecting Israel! This was done by Hamas inside Israel! Hamas claimed responsibility. They were based in Tulkarm in Samaria near the coast. They intended another Oct 7th killing hundreds on public transportation. Only God!

Massive attack averted: Bombs found on five buses in central Israel – Minister of Transportation Miri Regev also ordered all trains in the country to cease operations.

Today’s earlier news was the return of the Bibas’ babies and their mother in caskets. (Update: the female body was not the mother, a vile breech of the agreement.) The shameful mockery and public display on makeshift stages continues to shock the civilized world. This all must end! For those who follow my blog you will not be surprised to learn the Scripture that Israel’s IDF Rabbi spoke over them when the IDF took possession of the bodies.

‘O God, do not be silent’ | The Psalm read over the caskets of the deceased hostages – Considered an national elegy over the invasion of Israel by its neighbors, Chief Rabbi of the IDF, Brigadier General Eyal Krim read Psalm 83.

We have referenced Psalm 83 for several years as prophetically speaking of this very time of history. Notice the critical prayer request in verse 9, which refers to Gideon’s victory when God had the enemies turn and kill each other. That is still our prayer.

“Deal with them as with Midian, as with Sisera, as with Jabin at the Brook Kishon, who perished at En Dor, who became as refuse on the earth. ​​Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, ​​Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, who said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God for a possession.”  Psalm 83:9-12

Also notice that the enemies goal was to steal God’s land and make it their own. However, they are destined to fail because Yehovah God has given it to Israel for an everlasting inheritance.

“And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.”  Genesis 17:7-8

“Also your people shall all be righteous; They shall inherit the land forever, the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, That I may be glorified.”  Isaiah 60:21

A final observation: The other deceased hostage returned today was Oded Lifshitz, the 86 year old hostage killed over a year ago. He was a pro-Palestinian Israeli who worked to bring sick Gazan children to Israeli hospitals. It was meaningless to the Hamas cowards because he was a Jew and must die.

This is why we must pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray Psalm 83. The enemies must ultimately be judged by God Himself! Also keep praying for rain and snow which is coming this weekend to Israel.

Personification of the Universe

13 02 2025

Our culture has a problem as we drift away from God. A new phrase has emerged with dangerous effect. More and more young people say: “The universe is against me.” or: “The universe is trying to tell me something.” Why is that a problem? It effectively sidesteps God. By removing God you lose accountability. He actually is trying to tell us something. He may be against our behavior, but He offers the ultimate answer to all our issues in the Person of His Son, Yeshua who became the lamb of God Who takes away our sins.

So, we reject the living Person of God and rather personify the universe. Here is the definition of personification: “A figure of speech in which inanimate objects or abstractions are endowed with human qualities or are represented as possessing human form” The American Heritage Dictionary

Would you believe the Bible specifically pinpoints this very problem? The philosophical term is: “the creator/creature distinction”. This is also the theological term. The Apostle Paul made this very clear in his letter to the Romans.

“who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.”  Romans 1:25

I encourage you to read the very important context of that statement, but here I want us to understand how we veer off track from God. Pagan religions usually include this false worship of the sun or moon, or animals, or even rocks, or trees, or mountains. In each case they are worshipping the creation more than the Creator. They also worship humans, either real or imagined. One more way they reject the true God of the Bible is by inventing a new self-defined god of their imagination. In all of these they reject the Creator God to worship false gods and idols. Paul says it clearly.

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.”  Romans 1:18-23

The universe is not a person. Yehovah God speaks to us. We would do well to listen to Him!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for rain, and for victory over Israel’s enemies.

The Cost of Wickedness in Government

30 01 2025

Government corruption is a moral problem. It stems from the unrepentant heart of wicked men. The only remedy is to remove them from access to power. This is first a Biblical concept. There is a great example in the book of Proverbs using the process of purifying silver. In its natural state silver has impurities that cancel it value. These impurities are called “dross.” Silver has to be heated to at least 1,640 degrees in order to remove the impurities (dross). 

“Take away the dross from silver, and it will go to the silversmith for jewelry.”  Proverbs 25:4

Who knew the Bible understood silver smelting for jewelry? Yet the next verse is a direct extension of the analogy. It reveals that the wisdom of Solomon is not for jewelry but for the government of his kingdom. He gives us the answer for corruption in government. Remove the wicked corrupt people!

“Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne will be established in righteousness. “Proverbs 25:5
 
​”For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.”  Romans 13:3-4

Whatever you think about the second Trump presidency, he is certainly following the wisdom of Solomon in Proverbs. It is our responsibility as citizens to stand with him in that goal. Amazing corruption is being uncovered at this time and he is “removing the dross.” We should pray for righteousness to be established in our government. This applies to Israel as well, if not more so. I believe Yehovah God has raised up both Trump and Netanyahu, not because they are pure, but because they are purifiers. Pray for them!

“For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.”  Luke 8:17

“For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”  John 3:20-21

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

“This is That!” Ancient Bible Prophecy

23 01 2025

The exciting thing about living in the end times is the rapid fulfillment of ancient prophesies. When Peter observed the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost he declared: “But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;” Acts 2:16 KJV Jesus used that phrase about Himself as the bread of life as the fulfillment of the manna from heaven during the Exodus: “This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.” John 6:58 KJV         

Yet there are many more such fulfillments. This past year in my travels I emphasized several more ancient “This is that” prophecies that are being fulfilled in our day.

  1. Psalm 102 describes the Holocaust and then plainly says: “You will arise and have mercy on Zion;
    For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come.” Psalm 102:13 NKJV In 1948 Israel was miraculously reborn. This is that spoken by the Psalm.
  2. Psalm 83 describes the Arab nations bordering Israel that attacked from 1948 on, fulfilling the Psalm.  “Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,” Just as with Gideon and the Midianites,” Psalm 83:9 NKJV God caused the Arabs to fight against one another. We see this era ending with the Abraham Accords. This is that spoken by the Psalm.
  3. Amos 1:6 speaks of the present Gaza war, which is Israel fourth war with Hamas. “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 NKJV  This is that fourth time when Hamas in Gaza is defeated!
  4. Two more are still to come! Isaiah 17 speaks of the destruction of Damascus which has never happened in history. But it is closer than ever with the fall of the Syrian dictator Assad. “The burden against Damascus. “Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap.” Isaiah 17:1 NKJV When we see this happen, we will say this is that spoken by Isaiah!
  5. Isaiah 19 describes a time of peace with a highway connecting Syria, Israel, and Egypt. “In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will serve with the Assyrians.” Isaiah 19:23 NKJV  This is that spoken by the Psalm. We are indeed living in exciting times of Biblical fulfillment, showing again that Yehovah God keeps His word. Every single promised word will come to pass! Hallelujah!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, the hostages, the Prime Minister, and for rain in the land of Israel.

Ceasefire Contradictions! Grab the Popcorn

16 01 2025

Hope is rising with the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. I pray the hostages will indeed be released. However, there are serious downsides as well. Hamas has never kept their word to this point. One should never pay ransom to terrorists, it only incentivizes more hostage taking and terror. Here is a quote from a well respected Israeli columnist, Hillel Fuld, a proud Zionist. (Remember that a Zionist is simply a person who believes that God gave the land of Israel to the Jews.)

“If this deal goes through, the very same people who have been yelling genocide for the past year and talking about how Israel killed so many people and caused so much damage, are the same people who are going to be yelling victory. 
 
So which one is it? Did we commit genocide or did you win? Can’t be both. 
But here’s the thing. This isn’t their first contradiction of their own story. 
 
– The hostages are fed well and there is no food in Gaza. Which one is it?
– Gaza was an open air prison and Gaza was paradise before 10/7. Which one is it? 
– The Holocaust never happened and Hitler was right. Which one is it? 
– Globalize the intifada and ceasefire now. Which one is it? 
– Israel is lying about 10/7 and it was the proudest day in our history and we’ll do it over and over. Which one is it? 
– From the river to the sea and two state solution. Which one is it? 
 
Here’s the thing. You don’t have to know history. You don’t even have to know anything about the conflict. All you have to do if you want to know which side is good and which side is evil is look at their own narrative. They can’t stop contradicting themselves. 
 
If there was any truth to their story, why do they keep getting caught blatantly and openly lying? Why the Palywood? Why the fake babies? Why the staged casualties? 
 
Here’s a riddle. When does the pro Palestinian activist lie? The answer: When he/she opens their mouth.  
They can’t stop lying. They can’t stop contradicting themselves. That’s what happens when your entire identity from day one is a lie. 
That’s what happens when the “Founder” of the Palestinian movement is a terrorist who was himself born in Egypt. Don’t believe me? Go read up about Arafat. 
 
The whole thing is the most elaborate lie in history. Just listen to their contradictions and you’ll know. 
Assuming, of course, that you even want to know the truth.”  (Hillel Fuld on X)
 

Remain sober minded about the stages of the ceasefire. Expect Hamas to break the agreement at any point yet pray for success. This time is different. When Hamas violates the deal Israel will be able to finish them off with the full backing of President Trump and the United States. Hamas cannot be allowed to remain and rebuild. Israel will stay in control until trustworthy leaders emerge in Gaza.

“So they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, Yehovah, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, Yehovah, have spoken it, and I will do it.Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “I will also let the house of Israel inquire of Me to do this for them: I will increase their men like a flock. Like a flock offered as holy sacrifices, like the flock at Jerusalem on its feast days, so shall the ruined cities be filled with flocks of men. Then they shall know that I amYehovah.”   Ezekiel 36:35-38

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for rain for the land. Pray for truth and righteousness.

A Time for Seeking

9 01 2025

We are living in a time of great transition. Wildfires, wars, terrorism, and political upheaval crowd the headlines. Everything that can be shaken, will be shaken. We are in transition. As the world waits the inauguration of President Trump the shaking is increasing. What does it mean? What is happening? If you have ever sought God, this is the time. ls there a purpose for the shaking? Consider this.

“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.”  Hebrews 12:27-28

Things that are shakable will be removed and God’s unshakable Kingdom will remain standing. Therefore it makes sense to seek Him. Millions of believers are currently fasting and praying for mercy and blessing in this new year. Donald Trump is already changing the world scene, but he is not the Savior, as he himself has said multiple times. There is One higher that is in control. We should seek Him! Yeshua (Jesus) is our only hope. He is the Messiah, the son of Yehovah God. Seek Him!

​“Seek Yehovah while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. ​​Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; ​​Let him return to Yehovah, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. ​​“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says Yehovah. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.”  Isaiah 55:6-9

Let us pray for mercy for those suffering from disasters and wars. Let us pray for mercy for the political transition, especially in the United States. And as always pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Thank God for the rain and snow that has watered the land of Israel.

Ruth and the Gentile Church

3 01 2025

Stand with Israel

Now more than ever Christians need to stand with Israel for two reasons. We will be blessed according to God’s promise, and Israel will be comforted. When Ruth the Moabite chose to leave her own country and follow her mother in law Naomi to Israel, Ruth was blessed. She took her place in the genealogy of the Messiah Yeshua.

But Ruth said: “Entreat me not to leave you, or to turn back from following after you; for wherever you go, I will go; and wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, and your God, my  God. Where you die, I will die, and there will I be buried. Yehovah do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me.”  Ruth 1:16-17

This reference is engraved in our wedding rings regarding Doreen’s and my love for each other, but also our mutual covenant to stand with Israel.  – Israel’s God Yehovah is our God. – Israel’s Messiah Yeshua is our Messiah. We are part of the “one new man” as former Gentiles grafted into Israel by the Holy Spirit.

“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,”  Ephesians 2:14-15

This unified new man is the only way to world peace through the Kingdom of God and His Son, Jesus. No wonder Satan is pumping up the anti-Semitism everywhere.

I am excited to be the guest speaker at Tree of Life ministry in Garner, NC on the last two Fridays of January. Stay tuned for further details. The global church itself is divided on whether to support Israel, but there is no wavering in our house. Israel Lives!

“Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” ​​Says your God. ​​“Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned; for she has received from Yehovah’s hand double for all her sins.” ​​The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ​​“Prepare the way of Yehovah; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.”  Isaiah 40:1-3

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for rain and snow in His land!

Hanukkah Saved Christmas

26 12 2024

Chrismakkah

Christmas evening is the first night of Hanukkah this year, thus the cute pic. A major military victory was won by the Jewish Maccabees over the Greek occupiers 160 years before Yeshua came as a baby. That victory is still celebrated today as Hanukkah the Festival of Lights. It is also called the Feast of Dedication because the temple was rededicated after the Greeks had blasphemed the Temple Mount.

When the Israelites Revolted Against the Ancient Greeks –  “The Greek king, Antiochus IV, decided to ban the Jewish religion. He outlawed Jewish religious practices, such as the observance of the Sabbath or offering sacrifices at the temple in Jerusalem. Even owning a copy of the Jewish Scriptures ran the risk of the death penalty. Beyond this, Antiochus even made a point of desecrating the temple. He sacrificed a pig, which was a religiously unclean animal to the Jews, on the altar at the temple and set up an idol of Zeus on the holy Temple Mount. This was highly offensive to the Jews, since the temple was sacred to their god Yahweh, or Jehovah.”

If the Jews had not saved the temple Yeshua could not have fulfilled Micah’s prophecy of the Messiah. He was in the temple for His circumcision on the eighth day, His dedication at 40 days, and again when He was twelve. Of course He was there many other times through His life and ministry. That is how Hanukkah saved Christmas.

“Behold, I send My messenger, and he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple, even the Messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight. Behold, He is coming,” Says Yehovah of hosts.  Malachi 3:1

“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

One more important point connects the Festival of Lights with Jesus, the Light of the World. The miracle supply of oil for the temple menorah points to lighting the candles just as Jesus became the Light. He then shares His light with all who receive Him and follow Him.

Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”John 8:12

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.”  Matthew 5:14

My wife Doreen wrote a series of four children’s books on the Feasts of Yehovah. The first is “How Hanukkah Saved Christmas.” If you would like a set please send any amount of donation with your address to: Elisha Vision Ministries PO Box 1601, Wake Forest, NC 27588. Make check payable to Elisha Vision and write “book donation” in the memo. Thanks! Your prayers and support are appreciated.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for RAIN!

Simeon of Jerusalem

12 12 2024

simeon-holding-baby-jesus-against-260nw-1946368546

I have not gone up to the Temple as often since I have gotten older, but today I just had to go. There was a sound inside of me as clear as a shofar calling to worship. Even though it was shoulder to shoulder because of children’s dedication day, the Holy Spirit compelled me to go today.

I am trembling with joy and can hardly see through my tears to write down what happened. For so long I have waited to see the Messiah as we all have, but God had spoken so clearly that I would live to see Messiah myself. It was really exciting for me as a young man when He spoke that promise to me. I believed Him with all my heart.

But I must admit I sometimes doubted that promise I heard from Yehovah many years ago, especially with my advancing age, but I could not give up on it. It was so clear. He spoke to my heart that I would live to see the promised Messiah of Israel with my own eyes! After nearly four thousand years it was nearly impossible to believe that one of such minor value as me would have such an extraordinary privilege.

There had to be several hundred dedications there today, but when I came up it was like the Red Sea parted and the Holy Spirit led me right to one particular mother holding her child. They were not different from the others; I just knew they were the ones I was supposed to see. She did not know me, but somehow trusted me to hold Him in my arms.

As soon as I did, my heart was on fire. It was from the inside, but even my body was shaking as I realized instantly that we had all been wrong expecting the Messiah to be a grown man, a conquering King. This child was the Messiah! My head was spinning, but my heart was sure. This little one is the Promise! My theology fell away. It doesn’t matter how to explain it. I know.

Immediately, words came out of my mouth like I was Elijah, or Isaiah, or Zechariah. I have never known anything like I know this. I had to write this down, now, before I forget a single word. I spoke the words, but the Ruach HaKodesh, the Spirit of the Holy One, was revealing everything to me as I declared the truth! This is what I said to her and her husband, but especially to her.

“Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace (shalom), according to Your word; ​​For my eyes have seen Your salvation, which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.” Luke 2:29-32

I really am ready to die now in perfect shalom. God kept His word to me! Yehovah’s salvation has come in human form! I saw Him! I don’t understand how, but He is the Messiah. He is going to be seen somehow by the whole world, not only Israel. How can it happen? I don’t know; but He will be revealed as Savior to everyone in the world and yet will glorify Israel more than ever. I stopped speaking for a moment as we sort of took it all in. The father, Joseph, and his wife, Mary, were as astounded as I was at the words I had spoken.

Then I felt led to speak a blessing over them and Mary specifically. Yet, it turned out to be more than a blessing, it was a prophecy. I am not sure I understand. But it was clearly supernatural, and I don’t question it. The Spirt seemed to indicate that unlike most nations that rise and fall and then disappear, Israel is soon to fall but will then rise again later! We were all so amazed! Also, the Child will be a sign that will create strong opposition that will personally bring pain to Mary. It is a mystery to me, but I know what I heard. There was a third effect as well. The coming revelation of this Child will expose the secret thoughts of people’s hearts! The Messiah will break through everyone’s hard heart so that nothing will be hidden from Yehovah. Here are the exact words He gave me.

“Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against (yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.” Luke 2:34-35

I don’t know if anyone will ever read this, but I just had to get it recorded for a testimony to the truth I saw and heard today. The Messiah has come!

Signed as my true witness, SIMEON of Jerusalem

(My interpretation of how Simeon must have felt. Les – from my Dec 2021 blog)

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
