Two Wars

The Israeli Defense Forces certainly have their "Hands Full" since they are fighting two wars - one in Gaza and one on their Northern border. The IDF in Gaza is in the process of identifying and totally eliminating Hamas so they will not be a factor in Israel any longer. On the Northern border of Israel Hezbollah has been firing rockets into Israel's small towns. We need to understand that Hezbollah is funded and empowered by Iran meaning Israel is fighting a war on their Northern border against Iran. This war is also taking place on the Golan Heights.

Some of the Psalms address the challenges of Israel defeating their enemies. God's Covenant People worship Jehovah God through singing the Psalms. Psalm 149 is a wonderful example:

Vs. 1 - "Praise The Lord! Sing to The Lord a new song and His praise in the congregation of saints." 

Vs. 2 - "Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King." 

Vs. 3 - "Let them praise His name with the dance, let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp."

Vs. 4 - "For The Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation."

Vs. 5 - "Let the saints be joyful in glory; let them sing aloud on their beds."

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, and punishments on the peoples."

Vs. 8 - "To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron."

Vs. 9 - "To execute on them the written judgement - this honor have all His saints. Praise The Lord!"
