Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in The Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;" Psalm 37:3 "Trust in The Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness;" Psalm 22:8 "He trusted in The Lord, let Him rescue him; let Him deliver him, since He delights in him!" The Lord brought to mind all these verses about trusting in The Lord as I heard about current scenarios threatening Israel. I do not think we who live in places other than Israel can fully comprehend the challenges the Israeli government faces each day to protect their citizens. They need our prayers each day!
A headline on the Israel Today web site announced this week, "Worse than Hamas? ISIS in Gaza." Located in Gaza are Salafi Groups that are part of ISIS offering a more radical version of Islam, which is hard to understand. Salafi Groups have even started lobbing rockets into Southern Israel. They also believe the only way to end the Israeli occupation is through purification and a war against Israel referred to as Jihad.
Additionally and of the same mindset, a Hamas official announces, "Armed resistance against Israel is not negotiable." The Hamas official, Al-Zahhar, went on to state, "The Islamic Resistance Movement refuses a Palestinian State within the 1948 or 1967 territories. Our policy is Palestine, all of Palestine." Their intentions and goals are very clear and now ISIS is part of the total movement.
Let It Be Said Of Israel And The Jewish People
They Trust In The Lord!
May The Lord Bless You And Keep You This Day And Each Day,
Frank
