A Promised Land

This is a land (Israel) like no other land, a land and a nation God promised to Abram. In (Genesis 12) God told Abram, son of Terah, to leave his country, his people, and his father’s household and go to the land He would show him.

God said to Abram, “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.

Israel is now imperiled. Her enemies threaten her in ways not seen before. We know Iran repeatedly threatens to “wipe Israel off the map.” The nuclear threat Iran possesses is a very serious concern for Israel, and is for all Christian nations. The United States is a friend to Israel, and our role in her future must remain strong. We must pray for Israel! God warns in the above Scripture; “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse…” Israel is not just another embattled country, it is land chosen by God.

The Middle East could be one of the most peaceful places on earth if peace talks actually brought peace. As long as only one side wants peace though the threat of the destruction of Israel and a second holocaust exists.
I don’t believe God has given up on Israel, and I don’t believe He will allow it to be sliced up and given away to its enemies. But, the Arab world, the European Union, the media establishments and, yes, even our own government tells Israel in order to bring about peace they need to divide Jerusalem, leave Judea and Samaria, give up the Golan Heights and receive an unlimited number of refugees!

“…whoever curses you I will curse” is not a simple threat, God has declared it. I do not believe America will be exempt from what God said if we desert Israel. As He said, “…I will bless those who bless you” should be all we need, as a friend to Israel, to understand our important position in the future of Israel.

God will not back down on His promise to Abram nor to His chosen people. I believe God will heal His covenant land in a way that will be unmistakably by His own method. God's word (never) fails.

God bless Israel, and God bless those who support Your Israel.

Apostates Predicted

Sensual persons who cause divisions   I quote from the Book of Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, who was addressing those who were called , sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ. In verses 16 through 19, Jude warned of apostates who would come around and make themselves known. He described them as grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts , to use Jude’s own words. He went on to describe them as those who would be mouthing swelling words, flattering to gain advantage . Jude continued saying, “But you beloved, remember the words which were spoken before the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. Fast-forward now to today; to our present time, the year 2012. How is this book (Jude) of very few words; the little book which precedes the last book of the Bible; Revelation relevant to our (contemporary...

By His Authority

God has given His authority. God’s plan for authority has been given to His people: authority in the church (1 Peter 5:1-2) which says, “shepherd the flock of God which is among you;” authority in the home (Colossians 3:18-25,) “Wives submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord, as is fitting in the Lord;” authority in your workplace (Ephesians 6:5-9) “Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters…; and authority in civil government (Romans    13:1-7) “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God….” Authority as planned by God seems awkward and unfitting in today’s societies – not that His plan is inappropriate, certainly this is not true. It is more that people have deviated from God’s plan to what seems more suited to their personal lives for whatever reasons they justify. It is it any wonder we have dysfunctional families, government and na...

Two Kinds of Wisdom

That which is earthly, and that which is heavenly The Bible speaks of us being exposed to two kinds of wisdom; one that subjects us to bitterness, envy and selfish ambition, e.g. earthly wisdom , and that which comes from heaven which is first of all pure; peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. In (James 3:13) this servant of God, asked , “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.” Which form of wisdom will you profess; that which is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil or that which is of heaven? At the time of Jesus’ birth, three wise men from the east came to Jerusalem seeking the one who was now born King of the Jews . King Herod called upon these three to “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” he said in; (Matthew 2:8) -- the three wise men were told by He...
