Dividing The Land Of Israel At Our Own Peril

Everything is happening just as it says it would in the Word of God. No book on earth is as faithful, because it is God's words. He owns it, and takes full responsibility for it. As the Day of the Lord approaches every nation is lining up according to Scripture. God knows all things and is Sovereign. But how do we come to know according to Scripture? Reading and rereading the Bible is a good way to get context of what it is saying. Thinking, meditating and praying about it, and considering how it applies to your own life, other's lives, the world, to the past, present and future is a great way to learn the context of the Bible. Believing it. The Word of God is always relevant, applicable and trustworthy. It is outside of time, because it's an eternal book divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit. So now is the time to start reading the Bible if you have not been doing so. It's not too late, but it is getting late! Things are not going to continue as they have, nor as we are used to for very much longer because of the rebellion of man against God. 

As the Day of the Lord approaches, the Bible has already warned about what is going to happen in this world. It says that people's hearts will fail them for fear, because of what is coming upon the earth. What are you going to do when you see the extraordinary things happen that you have never witnessed nor can explain? And more importantly, what will you possibly do if you don't have the foundation of scripture holding you, protecting you, guiding you, strengthening you by faith in the heart and mind of Christ Jesus? Scripture is the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Lord of Life reveals on many occasions what is going to happen before it happens to help us believe in him when it happens.  He's watching out for those who have placed their trust in him: 

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. And now I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE IT TAKES PLACE, SO THAT WHEN IT DOES TAKE PLACE YOU MAY BELIEVE.” John 14:27-29 ESV

“For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you. Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. I am not speaking of all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But the Scripture will be fulfilled, ‘He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.’ I AM TELLING YOU THIS NOW, BEFORE IT TAKES PLACE, THAT WHEN IT DOES TAKE PLACE YOU MAY BELIEVE THAT I AM HE. Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.””

John 13:15-20 ESV

““I HAVE SAID ALL THESE THINGS TO YOU TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING AWAY. They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. And they will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me. BUT I HAVE SAID THESE THINGS TO YOU, THAT WHEN THEIR HOUR COMES YOU MAY REMEMBER THAT I TOLD THEM TO YOU." John 16:1-4 ESV

“I HAVE SAID THESE THINGS TO YOU, THAT IN ME YOU MAY HAVE PEACE. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”” John 16:33 ESV

“SEE, I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFOREHAND." Matthew 24:25 ESV

C.S. Lewis wrote of this as well, "God will invade. But I wonder whether people who ask God to interfere openly and directly in our world quite realize what it will be like when He does. When that happens, it is the end of the world. When the author walks on to the stage the play is over. God is going to invade, all right, but what is the good of saying you are on His side then, when you see the whole natural universe melting away like a dream and something else--something it never entered your head to conceive--comes crashing in; something so beautiful to some of us and so terrible to others that none of us will have any choices left? For this time it will be God without disguise; something so overwhelming that it will strike either irresistible love or irresistible horror into every creature. It will be too late then to choose your side... That will not be the time for choosing: it will be the time when we discover which side we really have chosen, whether we realized it before or not. Now, today, this moment, is our chance to choose the right side. God is holding back to give us that chance. It will not last forever. We must take it or leave it."

There are many evidences of the direct interaction of God in the world today that we must acknowledge as his strong warnings to stop doing what we are doing. That is, stop rebelling. Particularly, one area of rebellion is worthy of mentioning because it is a manifestation of the culmination of all the wrong inside of man. The world is uniting under a banner of rebellion against the Living God of Israel, and the world is not paying attention to His warnings. Israel is the Apple of God's eye, and God is the protector of Israel who never slumbers nor sIeeps. The Word of God reveals that He himself has a covenant with Israel which includes all of the land that he has given to them, and it also includes redemption and restoration and faith in Jesus Christ. It's an agreement that cannot be broken. But is the world paying attention? Who is reading the Bible among them? The Word of God is here to read, and is worthy of our trust in it. The world leaders and people of the world are all headed on a collision course with God if they remain on this road of dividing the land of Israel. The reasoning of the world is truly insane when it considers this evil as good. The "peace and security" desired by the world is actually death and destruction, because it is all based on lies. “While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 ESV

Do a google search on "Peace and Security" and see how much effort is being given to false peace by the UN, by the unification of world religions. Everyone wants peace and security, but it will not come, because the world will not recognize Jesus Christ as the Prince of Peace. Crying "peace and safety" when there is none is a world culture problem rooted in the spirit of rebellion. And God in his Justice will not have it. 

Does the world even recognize Israel's enemies anymore after negotiating with them and slowly "legitimizing" them as people who want peace? Do the enemies of Israel actually want peace? Do they really want the land of Israel for peace? The answer is NO. The world is so dark now, and that is proven by the masses believing in this particular lie: That the land of Israel can be divided and given to the enemies of Israel for peace and security. All nations now support this, and are regularly pressuring Israel to give up their land for a dead end purpose. The Palestinians, nor Iran, nor America under Obama, nor Canada under Trudeau nor Catholicism under Pope Francis, nor the UN under endless anti Israel recommendations are on the right side of wanting true peace with the God of Israel. Why should we not share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the Jews Pope Francis? Why should we boycott Israel for building their settlements on their land EU and UN? Why do many leaders of the world call violence "peace"? Is there not something so fundamentally wrong when the world turns a blind eye to the angry and violent methods, actions and proclamations of those wanting to destroy Israel and kill Jews and Christians? Who train their children to hate and kill? And now as the world starts to pressure Israel more to divide their God given land the consequences will start to increase more and more. Weather patterns, "refugee" crisis, world wars, civil wars, disease and pestilences etc. are all, a result of God removing his hand of protection, as well as, God judging the rebellion of these positions.  If you are watching, have read the Word of God , and believe that what God has said is true in His Word you understand that the world is headed into great tribulation because of rebellion against Him. The dividing of Israel for evil purposes is a proof of the rebellion that will invite immediate rebuke and punishment from the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. We know this because it has already been happening. Please spend a few minutes learning of how all the direct efforts of dividing the land of Israel has resulted in great and immediate consequences. This documentary video called "Documentary 4 Obama draft II" reveals how God has directly intervened with swift judgement against such actions just under the Obama administration. You can also research the same consequences under President George Bush efforts to divide Israel as well as all world government efforts in the book Eye to Eye: The Consequences of Dividing Israel by Bill Koenig. So many catastrophes, terrorist attacks, economic down turns, or periods of crisis are connected to a nation taking the position to pressure Israel to divide their land. Now it is on a global scale which will result in global judgements. I have been watching for too long to believe otherwise. God is zealous over Zion.

These are the last day scriptures that will give you context into what is happening right now in the world, and what will happen very soon because of the rebellion in the hearts of man: 

Joel 3:2

Pslams 83

Isaiah 17:1

Jeremiah 49:35-39

Ezekial 38-39

Zechariah 12-14

Matthew 24

Jesus Christ is the only true hope for peace we have in this world. He gave his life and shed his blood to reconcile the world back to God the Father. He died on purpose to free us from paths of destruction, paths that are in direct opposition to Him, paths that he hates because they are paths that destroy. 

Here are the scriptures of the unbreakable covenant God has made and reinforced with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all of their descendants....The People and Nation of Israel: 

Genesis 12:1-3 = God's original Covenant to Abraham

Genesis 13:15-17 = God gives his land to Abraham and his descendants

Genesis 15:18-21 = God describes the specific land parameters He is giving to Abraham 

Genesis 17:7-8 = God reinforcing his covenant with Abraham and all his descendants. 

Genesis 17:10-14 = Abrahamic Covenant Ceremony confirming Israel's commitment to the covenant. 

2 Samuel 8:3 / Deuteronomy 1:7 / Deuteronomy 11:24 = Confirmation of the land possessed by Israel under King David's rule. 

Joshua 1:4 = God confirms the land given to Abraham 

1 Kings 4:21 & 24 = Confirmation of the Gid given land under King Solomon

Ezekiel 37 / Zechariah 12:10-14 / Romans 11:26-27 = Because of Israel's disobedience the land God gave to them was overtaken by the Babylonians under Nebuchadnezzar, the Greeks under Alexander the Great, the Turkish Ottoman Empire under Sultan Suleiman, and the Roman Empire under Constantine. However, this in no way means that God broke his covenant with Abraham and all his descendants. The people of Israel were even scattered throughout the earth by God, because of their disobedience. Nevertheless, as God promised he has been bringing Israel back to life. This is most obviously seen before the world's eyes in 1948 when Israel became a nation again after 2000 years. This rebirth will continue until Israel is filled with the Holy Spirit which will cause them to repent of their sins and see Jesus as their Messiah.

God is good and He has already blessed the world through Jesus Christ, and he continue to bless the world through Israel even when the World is against Him. 

The Depth Of Thanks

What does it mean to be thankful? This puts into perspective how far giving thanks can go. Giving Thanks is powerful. I'm thankful for an abundance of things....that God is relentless in loving me unconditionally through his Son, for my wife and children and the deep vibrance they bring to my life, for all my family and friends who have made my life blessed and rich. There's much love and thanks today because of relationships. God bless you in thanks in every circumstance!

Ask Jesus To Open The Eyes Of The Heart

Great song about looking back when Jesus wasn't known in the heart of hearts, but hoping to know him one day, and finally realizing the goodness of God and just thanking him forever. Finally realizing the awesomeness of God through Christ changes everything. All one has is thanks and gratitude.

Running To Jesus ...Away From Temptation

Whenever you're tempted to sin against God let these two beats restore your perspective in what the Word of God is saying here: 

“Therefore, dear brothers and sisters, you have no obligation to do what your sinful nature urges you to do. For if you live by its dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live.” Romans 8:12-13 NLT

Fix Your Eyes

http://youtu.be/QB56ghfdTLc 

"We must never be astonished at temptations, however outrageous they may be. On this earth all is temptation. Crosses tempt us by irritating our pride, while prosperity tempts us by flattering it. Our life is a continual combat, but one in which Jesus Christ fights for us. We must pass on unmoved while temptations rage around us, as the traveler, overtaken by a storm, simply wraps his cloak more closely about him and pushes on more vigorously toward his destined home." Fenelon

The Magnitude Of Trusting In Christ

How does one articulate the significance and magnitude of what is at stake in choosing to trust Christ vs. everything else? It is the one choice among an eternal realm of choices that determines a person's eternal destiny. No wonder Jesus used parables to help those searching, and words like " Alpha and Omega / First and Last", "I Am that I Am",  " The Light", " The Way", " The Truth" "The Bread of Life" to describe himself. These are all fundamental which are essential in "forming a necessary base or core of central importance" to understanding who He is. He is not just a person, but God in the flesh reaching out to each person, inviting them to reach out to him,......to save them from the darkness, death, and corruption that sin brings and the Devil. There is fundamental truths to both light and darkness, good and evil. There is a Father of Love in Truth and there is a Father of Lies in Deception. Don't let anyone tell you that fundamental truths are not important in distinguishing between what is really good vs. what is really evil. You know people by what the Word of God says. Jesus was super intentional in using the words he used. He even said a person can not stay on the fence on the issue as it is a choice of indifference. Indifference doesn't cut it because it really matters.

Love Your Enemies And Pray For Those Who Persecute You

Here's a video that is about the power of God's love to break through. Jesus said, "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you"... a very fundamental truth in Christianity. This man's testimony reveals the real world. Real, because everyone in his life actually are living out the fundamental commands of what their books teach. I recently heard someone say that if a person claims to be a Christian or Muslim or Jew, but does not actually follow the commands in context of their entire Bible, Koran, or Torah that they are just "Cultural" Christians, Muslims and Jews etc. They pick and choose what they want to follow out of all the fundamental teachings. In contrast, those who actually follow the entirety of what their book teaches in context are fundamental or true to their faith. This ex Muslim said, "it is easy to do what the Koran says, and it is hard to do what the Bible says." This is such a powerful testimony revealing the true nature of who God is through Jesus Christ, and how only through the indwelling of His Holy Spirit can a person be empowered to truly Forgive, Love Their Enemies, Pray for those who persecute them.....to do all the fundamental teachings of what God (Jesus) taught. Jesus was once only a prophet to this man, until he experienced his love and forgiveness! There is a radical genuinness in following the entire counsel and teachings of any book, whether it is right or wrong, and those who are actually radical/fundamental/genuine/real reveal or witness what those books teach. But there is a massive moral obligation we have to discern what is true and good compared to what is apathetic and indifferent and false and evil. There's no argument that the fundamental principles that Jesus taught and demonstrated are life transforming, true, good and eternal. Everything He did was right and just, and through repentance of sin,  placing ones trust in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sin, and living out what Jesus taught we can all experience extreme forgiveness , healing love, eternal salvation, true peace.

Abiding in Christ

Be transformed by the renewing of the mind of Christ. The battle is in the mind. Ideologies, distractions, lies, past and future worries, anxieties, are all laid to rest when the mind starts thinking about Jesus and believing  like Him. It's a process, but abiding in Him is a state  of being in the mind and heart. This is a classic writing by Andrew Murray that probably cost $5 in the books stores. The encouragement in it is priceless. Jesus said, "Abide in Me." That means come to me and STAY with me. Why? so that His Joy can be in us and remain full in us. THE WORLD NEEDS SOME REAL JOY THAT LASTS. 

Abiding in Christ by Andrew Murray:

http://youtu.be/V8JSCrj62R4

“If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”

John 15:7-11 ESV

“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

Romans 12:1-2 ESV

Jesus Is The Light ...In Him Is No Darkness At All

“Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”” John 8:12 ESV

““Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”

Matthew 7:13-14 ESV

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

Psalm 119:105 ESV

““You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” Matthew 5:14 ESV

“In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”

John 1:4-5 ESV

Identity In Christ Destroys All The Chaos

Do you acknowledge that the Devil is real, and is actively seeking whom he can destroy and take down with him? He does this by taking everything of God that is good and flips it upside down so people have a distorted perspective of who God really is. He wants to create mass confusion then chaos in everything especially in areas where people place their identity. We are meant to find our identity in Jesus Christ, but think of all the identity confusion today and where it is leading. The Devil doesn't want anyone to get close to understanding who God is nor what His will is for people....both of which would solidify one's identity...Both of which come by reading and hearing the Bible. Has the Devil done a good job at confusing the world about what the Bible is really saying? Who can see through his lies? Why all the confusion and chaos in family, government, gender, fatherhood, religion, between the races, among the nations, on the value of life, when and where life begins, marriage...etc? It's all an attack on our true identity. But God's Word has made it through the ages in all its integrity. This song is a powerful starting point in realizing where our identity comes from. It puts life into proper perspective by focusing the eyes of our heart, and our physical eyes on the God of Israel. When we finally see that he is set a part, He is Holy, and His ways are not our ways then we start to realize who God is and can acknowledge how good He is, and accept the identity He gives to us through Jesus His Son. We can really start to worship Him, which in turn will bless everyone. Invite God into your life and let Him destroy all the chaos. One of His names is " HaShem" which literally means "The One Who Destroys Chaos"
