The world speaks of the Gaza civilians as being innocent of the murderous acts of Hamas who invaded Israel on Saturday, October 7th. However, new evidence is mounting that demonstrates that many ordinary Gaza civilians also joined the invasion. Everyone should read the following report from World Israel News,

It is very clear that the Israeli public is not in the mode of hesitation concerning the war with Iran and its terrorist proxies. The Israeli people are calling for their political and military leaders to attack Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in the north, and to strike the heart of Iran’s nuclear facilities. However, it seems that the leaders in Israel are not listening to their people, but to the counsel of former President Obama and President Joe Biden.
I understand that the United States is Israel’s strongest ally. However, I fear that it is a big mistake for Israel to listen to Obama and Biden. (1) Both of these men have failed America and the world with their lies and weakness in foreign policies. Thanks to their weakness, our world is much more dangerous. (2) Both of these men have said that Israel is their friend, but their actions have demonstrated otherwise. Both have negotiated with Iran in Iran’s march toward the production of a nuclear arsenal. They have trusted the liars of Tehran and given them large sums of money. All of this happened while the religious leadership in Iran continued to call for the death of the U.S. and Israel. (3) It is apparent that the West does not understand the Middle East. They do not comprehend the passion and dedication of Islamic warriors who are willing to commit suicide for the will of their god who call for the death of the free world. They do not understand that the radical religious elements in Iran are serious about bringing about global carnage so that their messiah will come to establish his sinister global kingdom over all the earth. (4) The nations of the world have told Israel for 75 years that Israel does not have the right to the land that God gave them. The world has consistently told Israel that they do not have the right to defend itself against those who are committed to the destruction of the one and only Jewish state in the world. (5) Most importantly, the counsel from Obama and Biden and other leaders in the West is not godly counsel. These men do not know God and do not have wisdom of God. They do not know or understand the Word of God. Their ways are not God’s ways. Their standards of morality and justice are not based upon just and righteous principles that reflect the holiness of God. Therefore, their counsel is deadly and misleading.
Israel needs to understand that this is not their battle. They are God’s people in God’s land. The Lord has promised them victory in their wars with their enemies. Like Israel in the past, they are trusting in the might of man instead of the power of God. Oh, that the Lord would have them to know Psalm 20:7, “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.”
I believe that the Lord is about to demonstrate to Israel that they must turn back to Him and trust Him. When the war of Ezekiel 38 comes (and it appears to be getting closer every day), the Lord will supernaturally destroy the enemies who invade Israel, which include Russia, Iran, and Turkey (Ezekiel 38:5-6). He will destroy them with a massive earthquake and volcanic eruptions on the Golan Heights (Ezekiel 38:19-22). As a result, the Lord declares, “Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD” (Ezekiel 38:23).
As we watch this current war unfold, let us pray that the Lord will demonstrate His presence and power to His people. Let us pray that the leadership in Israel will seek God’s wisdom, and not man’s counsel. Let us pray that the current situation in Israel’s war with Hamas is not a hesitation, but a time for seeking a godly strategy.
Iran Threatens to Strike Haifa
According to World Israel News, on Monday, October 23rd, an Islamic Revolutionary Commander warned they are ready “without hesitation” to strike Haifa. Iran warns that if Israel continues to carry out air strikes against Hamas’ positions in Gaza, they will launch a missile attack against Israel’s third largest city. Haifa is one of Israel’s major industrial centers on the northern seacoast. See map.
As this happened, several leaders of the Palestinians on the West Bank (biblical Judea and Samaira) praised Hamas for its attack against Israel on October 7th. It is reported that at least 58 percent of the Palestinians in Gaza also support Hamas and are calling for the destruction of Israel. This should open the eyes of the world to recognize that the Palestinians are not a viable peace partner with Israel.
It seems that the enemies of Israel in the Middle East are no longer hiding behind half-truths to blind the world into thinking the Islamic world wants to make peace with Israel. It is evident that we are about to witness a major eruption of war in the Middle East.
Israel’s only path to real, lasting peace will not come until Messiah Jesus comes to establish His kingdom. Only then will the Lord make wars cease (Psalm 46:9). Please pray for Israel and her soldiers as they stand on the front lines against Islamic warriors who are seeking to take control of the nations. This is the beginning of the major storm that will lead the world into the Tribulation Period. Prepare your soul to meet the Lord. Be ready for the shout that will take us out!
Iran’s Ring of Fire
The liberal west does not know it, but our world is in the middle of a religious war that is about to engulf all nations. While living in a godless culture, the masses and the leadership of the West are blinded toward the deception of radical Muslim elements. These elements currently seek to be political partners with them in the United Nations. The Communist and Socialist leaders believe they can temporarily support the Islamic war efforts to eradicate the United States and Israel. Then, they must think they can subjugate the Muslim world and establish a godless socialist New World Order. However, it is apparent that the West is in the process of moral and spiritual bankruptcy. All the major nations of the West are on the verge of economic collapse. When the Western nations internally collapse, it will leave Islamic forces to rule the World. This conclusion is supported by the prophetic Scriptures.
I believe there is overwhelming biblical evidence to conclude that the coming Antichrist and his global kingdom will be an Islamic kingdom, with its headquarters in the Middle East. According to Revelation 17-18, the Antichrist and his kingdom will be controlled by a very powerful religion that is in the desert (Revelation 17:3). This religion will hate Christians and Jews and will kill them by decapitation (Revelation 20:4). This conflict between the forces of the Antichrist and Israel will be the conclusion to the historical conflict in the book of Genesis between Ishmael and Isaac, and Jacob and Esau.
There are many Islamic groups that are working toward the establishment of a global Islamic kingdom. However, at the forefront of these efforts is the nation of Iran. Since the revival of the rise of Radical Islam in Iran in 1979, Iran has continued to call for the annihilation of the nation of Israel. Iran is recognized by many nations as the leading sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East and around the world. The Iranian supreme leader, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has repeatedly called for the destruction of Israel. In April 2018, he lashed out at Israel, calling the Jewish state a “cancerous tumor’ of the region that must be “removed and eradicated.”
In the last few decades, Iran has established it proxy Islamic terrorist groups in a ring of fire, surrounding the nation of Israel. See the map with this article. As you look at this map and reflect upon the events that have transpired in the Middle East since October 7th, it is very apparent that Iran has begun to make its final move to annihilate Israel. Iranian backed terrorist groups in Gaza, Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, the West Bank, and Yemen are all prepared to join each other in a multi-front war effort to overwhelm and defeat Israel. All of this is happening while it is being reported that Iran is very close to the development of several nuclear weapons.
As we watch these developments, we must remember that the Bible tells us what is about to take place. (1) We are watching the continuation of a campaign of “wars and rumors of wars” against Israel (Matthew 24:6). (2) We will see how the keeper of Israel will protect and defend His people (Psalm 121:1-8). (3) We will see the developments that will cause the West to collapse and make way for the rise of political Islam to take control of the world. This will not fully materialize until the beginning of the Tribulation Period (Revelation 6:1-8). (4) At any moment the church will rise to meet Jesus and be snatched out of this world in the Rapture.
We must rejoice that our God is sovereign and is directing the nations toward His divine conclusion. Read Daniel 4:34-35. May the Lord give us wisdom to know how to pray. Be bold for the Lord and proclaim the gospel. Keep listening for the shout that will take us out!
Hospital in Gaza Struck by Missile
On Tuesday, October 17, a missile struck the Al Ahili hospital in Gaza, killing hundreds of people. Immediately, Hamas and other Arab Islamic media sources begin to accuse Israel of this brutal and barbaric act. Israeli intelligence has produced the evidence that the Israeli forces did not strike the hospital. Instead, it was accidentally struck by a missile fired behind the hospital by the Islamic Jihad Terror Organization. This photo shows that as they were launching missiles at Israel, one of the missiles misfired and struck the hospital. Many of the missiles and launchers, like the ones pictured below, were manufactured in Gaza and a not precise weapons of war. It is estimated that about 20 percent of the missiles they attempt to fire into Israel fall short of their intended target, many falling in Gaza.
The war against Israel is not just being waged on the battlefield, but also in the global media centers. Those who hate Israel are proud to lie and promote these fabricated stories to make Israel the villain instead of themselves. It is a well-established fac
t that Hamas has used innocent civilians to shield their warriors from the retaliatory strikes of the Israelis. The fact that these terrorist forces were firing these missiles near this hospital in Gaza is a case in point.
