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.

Our Walk With God

“Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered, when you run, you will not stumble” (Proverbs 4:10-12). Our lives are built upon our first step, and   then proceed step after step after step thereafter. As infants we learn to crawl, then stand and eventually to walk to the waiting hands of our proud fathers and mothers. Our walking skills can develop into running skills; some of us will go on to run races, some will even run long distance marathons, but it all begins first with our desire to walk. The Lord tells us to listen to what He says to us through His Holy Spirit and the years of our lives will be many; as we go through life, our steps will not be hampered; when we hurry through our impossible daily schedules and race through our lives, we will not stumble.   All successful runners have a professional trainer, our trainer is ...

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...

GLORIOUS!

"Shout with joy to God, all the earth! Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious" (Psalm 66:1,2)! Hallelujah! Praise to our King! See how glorious He is! He is our awesome God! He is our Healer, our Counselor, our Morning Star, our heavenly Father, our Savior and our Redeemer. He is our Lamb of God, He is our Maker, our Sacrifice, our Bridegroom, our Living Water, our Helper, He is our Blessing, our Bread of Life, our Sweet, Sweet Song, He is Abba Father...let us make His praise glorious! He is Yahweh-Jehovah, Jehovah-Elohim, Jehovah-Elyon, El Shaddai, Jehovah-Jireh, He is Jehovah-Tsidqenu, Jehovah- Shamah, and He is Jehovah-Tsebaoth...let us make His praise glorious! What's in a name, and why would we sing the glory of God's name(s)? Often a name provides an important clue to the nature of a person. This is definitely true of God. The Bible refers to God by many different names, each one referring to some aspect of God's character or His relation...
