Today Israel celebrates 76 years as a Jewish nation-state in modern times

The Jewish nation-state of Israel fulfilled this prophecy of Isaiah 76 years ago today.

"6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that renders recompense to his enemies. 7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. 8 Who has heard such a thing? who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once?  for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. 9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? said the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? said your God. 10 Rejoice you with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her" (AKJ, Isaiah 66:6-10)

 Just as those who loved the Jewish people on May 14, 1948 rejoiced and then mourned with her during the First Arab-Israeli War; again we rejoice and mourn with the people of Israel.  Hamas has not ceased firing rockets into southern Israel since October 7th, 2023.  Hezbollah continues to fire rockets into northern Israel.  The rockets were paid for by Iran, who sent their own barrage on April 13, 2024.

Hamas still holds hostages, including 5 Americans, and yet my American government is denying ammunition for Israel to take out the last Hamas brigades and free the hostages.  I'm ashamed and outraged.  Billions of US taxpayer dollars and ammunition have been sent to Ukraine where no American lives are in danger.

I am praying for Almighty God to intervene, and so are millions of Christians and Jews in America.

Moses' blessing upon the children of Israel/Jacob before he died ends as follows:

"27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before you; and shall say, Destroy them. 28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be on a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew. 29 Happy are you, O Israel: who is like to you, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of your help, and who is the sword of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars to you; and you shall tread on their high places." (AKJ, Deuteronomy 33:27-29) 

AMEN
