Mixed Messages

United States President Biden has sent mixed messages concerning the relationship between Israel and the United States. According to the New York Times Newspaper Biden said the United States and Israel relationship is in jeopardy but Israeli officials say this is fake news.

Last week Biden met with Israeli President Herzog and reports said the meeting was warm indicating strong bonds between Israel and the United States. Biden said, "This is a friendship that I believe is unbreakable." Also, Herzog addressed the United States Congress and was very well received.

Where did the mixed messages come from? A reporter for the New York Times claimed Biden told him opposite information due to Israel's proposed Judicial Reforms. Who do we believe? Looking at Herzog's positive trip to the United States, we believe the relationship between Israel and the United States is as strong as ever. Praise God!

We Can Keep This Relationship Strong

By Praying Psalm 122 Everyday!


Vs. 1 - "I was glad when they said to me, 'Let us go into the house of The Lord.'"

Vs. 2 - "Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!"

Vs. 3 - "Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together."

Vs. 4 - "Where the tribes go up, the tribes of The Lord, to the testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of The Lord."

Vs. 5 - "For thrones are set there for judgement, the thrones of the house of David."

Vs. 6 - "Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem; may they prosper who love you."

Vs. 7 - "Peace be within your walls, prosperity within your palaces."

Vs. 8 - "For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, 'Peace be within you.'"

Vs. 9 - "Because of the house of The Lord our God, I will seek your good."

Netanyahu Caught Between Washington & Beijing

Kevin McCarthy, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, spoke to the Israeli Knesset recently. His speech centered on strong ties between Israel and China. He said China disguises itself as an innovator but acts like thieves.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has received an invitation to visit China and has decided to accept this invitation. This decision has surprised many in Israel and Washington. China is most likely the only issue that the U.S. Congress agrees about since China is the number one enemy of the United States. Currently, Israel's new relationship with China appears to be affecting the close relationship of Israel and the United States.

We who love Israel and the United States and desire for their relationship to stay strong ask for you to join us at For Zion's Sake Ministry:

Praying The Following Verses Of Psalm 140

Vs. 1 - Deliver me, O Lord from evil men

Vs. 2 - Who plan evil things in their hearts

Vs. 4 - Keep me, O Lord from the hands of the wicked

Vs. 7 - O God The Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle

Vs. 8 - Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked

Vs. 13 - Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name

Blessings,

Frank

Judea And Samaria?

Israel reported plans for an additional 5,700 settlement homes. This will bring the number of new residents in Judea and Samaria this year to 13,082. The United Kingdom, Australia and Canada disapprove. This is just the continuation of Anti-Semitism that is rampant around the world.

This raises the question - Is Judea and Samaria part of Israel? Absolutely YES! Genesis 15:18 says, "On the same day The Lord 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.'" The land God gave to Abraham and his descendants {Jews} ran from Egypt to present day Iraq. This obviously included Judea and Samaria. Palestinians are trying to claim Samaria for themselves.

IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN - GOD WILL NOT ALLOW IT!

We Who Love And Support Israel Need To Pray Psalm 149

 For God To Protect The Jewish Residents Of Samaria

Vs. 1 - Praise The Lord! Sing To The Lord A New Song

Vs. 2 - Let Israel Rejoice In Their Maker; Let The Children Of Zion Be Joyful In Their King

Vs. 4 - For The Lord Takes Pleasure In His People 

Vs. 6 - Let The High Praises Of God Be In Their Mouth, And A Two-Edged Sword In Their Hand

Vs. 7 - To Execute Vengeance On The Nations 

Vs. 9 - To Execute On Them The Written Judgement - This Honor Have All His Saints, Praise The Lord!

Blessings,

Frank

Is Israel Divided?

Israeli Defense Forces are performing outstanding work and are believed by many to be the best in the world. However, Jewish residents living in Samaria still face daily attacks by the Palestinians. There are stones being thrown against Jewish motorists and mob lynchings of Jewish shepherds.

Recent reports reveal that there is a deep divide between Secular Israelis and Religious Jews. As a result, some military officers are not fulfilling their obligation to defend "Settlers" living in Samaria.

Officers in the Israeli Defense Forces need to be reminded of their obligation to defend all Israelis. Is Israel divided? For all its successes, Israel seems determined to have divisions within its society. Israel has a history of divisions and the only solution is "Turning To God."

Please Pray With Us Psalm 147 

For Jehovah God To Bring Unity Within Israel:


Vs. 1 - Praise The Lord for it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and praise is beautiful

Vs. 2 - The Lord builds up Jerusalem; He gathers together the outcasts of Israel

Vs. 3 - He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds

Vs. 5 - Great is  the Lord and mighty in power

Vs. 6 - The Lord lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked down to the ground

Vs. 7 - Sing to The Lord with thanksgiving; sing praises on the harp to our God

Vs. 12 - Praise The Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion

Blessings,
