Surrounded!

Israel needs our prayers every day and God's Word encourages us to pray for them each day as Genesis 12:3 and Psalm 122:6 proclaim. In this message we will inform you how Israel is "Surrounded" by enemies except for the Mediterranee Sea on its Western border. To clearly understand this further - if you lived in the United States, three of the four states surrounding your state would be enemies and if you lived in Europe, three of the surrounding nations would be your enemies.

Looking at Israel being surrounded by enemies - on their Southern border is Egypt who used to be a friend but now is helping Hamas in Gaza; on their Eastern border is Saudi Arabia and Jordon with their friendships in question and on their Northern border is Hasbullah who is trying to destroy Israel from the North.

"All Israel Will Be Saved"

Our title for this message is from Romans 11:26 saying, "And so all Israel will be saved." We at For Zion's Sake Ministry sense a positive message is in order concerning all that is currently taking place in Israel. Certainly, a message explaining how God's Word which illustrates that the Jewish people from around the world will be back in Israel and will receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior is appropriate.

Zechariah 14:4 says, "And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives." This verse actually describes Jesus physically coming back to earth and most Bible Scholars believe this will happen at the end of the Tribulation Period. Zechariah 12:10 says, "And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they have pierced." At that moment, all the Jewish people back in Israel, will receive Jesus Christ as their Savior. Why will the Jewish people be back in Israel? Anti-Semitism will be strong around the world as it is currently.

We who love Israel, desire to present portions of Psalm 76 to our Heavenly Father as follows:

Vs. 1 - "In Judah God is known; His name is great in Israel."

Vs. 2 - "In Salem also is His tabernacle, and His dwelling place in Zion."

Vs. 3 - "You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey."

Vs. 6 - "At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse were cast into a dead sleep."

Vs. 8 - "You caused judgement to be heard from Heaven; the earth feared and was still."

Vs. 11 - "Make vows to The Lord your God and pay them; let all who are around Him bring presents to Him who ought to be feared."

Blessings,

In This Together

Most Israelis spend two or three years together in the Israeli Defense Forces {IDF} since it is considered to be part of their society and is considered to be a "Right Of Passage." Israel was surrounded by and attacked by the countries around them the day it was founded in 1948 and has been surrounded by enemies ever since.

As a result of these attacks, they have had to fight numerous wars. With the Guidance of Jehovah God Israel has won every war! We do not believe the wars currently in Gaza and on their Northern border will be any different. It is just a matter of how and when! Praise The Lord!

Psalm 122:6 says, "Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem." Also, Genesis 12:3 says, "I Will Bless Those Who Bless Israel." We desire to be those who know and obey God's Word. 

Psalm 99 says . . .

Vs. 1 - "The Lord reigns; let the peoples tremble! He dwells between the cherubim; let the earth be moved!"

Vs. 2 - "The Lord is great in Zion, and He is high above all the peoples."

Vs. 3 - "Let them praise Your great and awesome name - He is holy."

Vs. 4 - "The King's strength also loves justice; You have established equity; You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob."

Vs. 5 - "Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at His footstool; for He is holy."

Vs. 9 - "Exalt the Lord our God and worship at His holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy."

Blessings,

Pray For Bibi

Possibly, you are wondering who is Bibi? Bibi is a nickname for the Prime Minister of Israel whose full name is Benjamin Netanyahu. Why does he need our constant and continual prayers? 

All we have to do is observe what is currently taking place in Israel. We hear in the news everyday about the tense situation in Southern Gaza. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) are in the process of trying to identify Hamas and at the same time eliminate them. This is very difficult since Hamas does not wear uniforms as they mingle among the citizens. Also, this conflict is taking place at the border with Egypt and they are actually helping Hamas.

Additionally, there is a conflict on Israel's Northern border with Hezbullah which is attacking Israel from the North. Reports indicate that Hezbullah is attacking IDF soldiers on the border and even burning small Israel towns. As a result, Israel is in a war on their Southern and Northern borders.

Join us in praying Psalm 81 that Jehovah God will, in accordance with His Word, help Israel defend themselves:

Vs. 1 - "Sing aloud to God our strength; make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob."

Vs. 4 - "For this is a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob."

Vs. 7 - "You called in trouble and I delivered you."

Vs. 8 - "Hear, O My people and I will admonish you! O Israel, if you will listen to me!"

Vs. 9 - "There shall be no foreign god among you; nor shall you worship any foreign gods."

Vs. 13 - "Oh, that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!"

Vs. 14 - "I would soon subdue their enemies and turn My hand against their adversaries."

Blessings,
