**Let me give you a quick summary of what has transpired so far today … Friday … another Palestinian Day of Rage.
–Clashes broke out at the Gaza border between the IDF and Palestinians, who were seeking to break through the barrier. Two Palestinians were killed and 126 were wounded. Pray that YHVH would keep that Gaza border strong and secure. Protect the soldiers and the kibbutzim that live and operate near Gaza.
–A Palestinian, dressed as a member of the press corps, stabbed an Israeli soldiers multiple times, wounding him very seriously. Pray healing for this soldier. Pray that all terrorists using disguises would be exposed before they can make any attack.
–A bomb-sniffing dog pointed out a live pipe bomb at the checkpoint between East and West Jerusalem near the community of Issawiya. The world may rage and howl over the checkpoints, and how they limit the free movement of the Palestinians, but this incident is one (of many) that shows why they are vital. The bomb squad safely detonated the bomb.
Praise the Lord for the canine teams (both dogs and men/women). Bless them with increased detection and disarmament abilities. Bless the handers of these doggies with increased wisdom and courage. What they do is exceedingly dangerous and vital.
–There was violence in the “West Bank” as well today. Joseph’s tomb was set ablaze in Nablus, and riot activities produced the stabbing of an Israeli soldier, who is now in moderate condition. Even areas near Bethlehem were erupting, as mobs pledged their blood for the defense of the al-Aksa mosque, and shouted death to the Jews. Pray for a full healing for this soldier. Pray that the Lord would send His angelic forces into the midst of the Palestinian riots to shut them down. Pray for the Moslems to get the revelation that they are fighting for a false deity against the One True God.
–The military arm of Fatah, the Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigade … an entity under the control of Mahmoud Abbas — posted a compelling call for attacks against Israelis on its Twitter account. Various internet postings have been showing instructive videos of the best way to stab a Jew.
Pray that none of these stabbing lessons will be applied or successful. Pray that all those, who are posting these horrors, or LIKING these postings, would be arrested and charged.
–A 13-year-old Palestinian boy was arrested in Jerusalem as he was walking the streets, with a knife in his possession. Praise YHVH that this boy was captured before he could stab anyone.
**Israel is not only being attacked with violence and hatred, but she is also being accused by outrageous lies, and by outrageous reactions, in response to the abuse she is taking.
**LIES: So far the Obama administration has not been helpful. Quite the contrary! Obama has said that both Israel and the Palestinian Authority are responsible for the incitement. FALSE! John Kirby of the US State Dept. spoke in a press conference yesterday; saying that the American administration was concerned about Israel’s excessive use of force in dealing with the Palestinian uprising. He also applied the usual left-wing moral equivalency strategy by suggesting that both the Palestinians and the Israelis have used terror against the other. Weeks ago, when an unbalance Jewish man attacked an Arab home, setting a fire, which caused the deaths of some of the family members, the Israeli government decried and condemned the act. The perpetrator was arrested and charged. Restitution and comfort were offered to the Arab family. On the other hand, the Palestinian authorities are inciting violence against the Jews, and lavishing honors and rewards upon those, who die in the process of killing Jews. There is nothing “terrorist” in the actions of the Israeli government, military, or society. Terrorism is a daily tool in the hands of the Palestinians. There is no moral equivalency operating between the two sides, but you would never know it from the comments Kirby and others have been making.
–Pray that YHVH would deal firmly with Obama, and with the US State Dept. … and with John Kirby.
–Pray for the release of the Spirit of Truth to shut the mouths of these liars.
–Pray that shame would come down upon the heads of the liars … swiftly and convincingly so that they would repent of their behavior.
–Praise the Lord that the hidden anti-Semitism in the hearts of world leaders is now being exposed, so that Israel can ignore their biased demands and opinions.
–Pray that Israel would use every bit of force necessary to keep her people safe.
**LIES: John Kerry is planning a trip to Germany to meet with Chancellor Angela Merkel and Bibi, in an effort to bring calm to the violence. Kerry needs to stay out of these discussions. This man continues to spout the outrageous lie that this knife intifada has been caused by “Palestinian frustration” arising out of the continued building that the Jews are doing in the West Bank … and because of the “fact” that the Israelis are refusing to grant the Palestinians the State that they deserve, according to their demands. OH PLEASE! This American Secretary of State is a disgrace as a peacemaker, and as a unbiased diplomat. He perpetually ignores the facts and the truth, in order to spin this conflict to fit the “progressive, globalist, humanist, worldview” and to benefit that agenda … and to gain the approval of the Islamic powers. He causes Israel more headaches every time he starts talking about the conflict. (Note: Hours later, Kerry altered his stance in light of the strong Israeli response toward his comments about Palestinian frustrations justifying the violence. Now Kerry has come out saying that no level of frustration qualifies as justification of random violence against citizens. That is a step in the right direction, but sadly it took a shout from the PM office to give him the revelation; regarding how his earlier words would increase the attacks. Kerry was a very bad choice for such a significant job!
–Pray that YHVH would deal with John Kerry … and keep him far away from Israel.
–Pray that the Lord would direct this meeting in Germany, and that Bibi would be a mouthpiece for the Lord in the discussions.
–Pray that Angela Merkel will take her stand with Israel and with Bibi, rather than put pressure upon Israel to back off in dealing with the challenges at home.
**LIES: Abbas announced to the world that the Israelis executed an innocent 13-year-old Palestinian boy. It was a TOTAL lie, but the world believed it, and some of the western media reported it as fact. The 13 year old was wounded, after stabbing an Israeli teenage boy (leaving him in serious condition). The stabber’s “partner in crime” (another youth) was killed after he stabbed a Jewish man. ISLAM ARISES FROM THE FATHER OF LIES. Therefore, those, who are committed to Islam, use the deceit and lies, that are demanded in the Koran, as the way Moslems are to gain power over infidels (non believers). Today in a press conference, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed a photo of the supposedly dead Palestinian boy. He was recovering… smiling happily … in an Israeli hospital … not many rooms away from his critically damaged victim. It is also important to note, that in the photograph the boy was flashing the ISIS sign with his fingers. How did the PLO cover the bold faced lie of Abbas? They released a false English version of his Arabic statements originally broadcast. In the English version he supposedly said that the Israeli forces “shot” the boy in cold blood … leaving out the fact that he was injured while stabbing a human being with the intention of killing him. Such wickedness is beyond disgusting. To add to the insult, the Physicians for Human Rights have filed a complaint against Israel, and against the PM, for displaying the photo of the boy (that proved he was fully alive) without the parent’s permission. Can you imagine, these Palestinian parents giving the Israel government the permission to prove that they, and the Palestinian Authority, were promoting a total lie? Ridiculous! These physicians need to get a revelation!
–Pray that this recent evidence of overt lies by Abbas and by the Palestinian media will leave a lasting impression upon the readers and viewers, so that they no longer trust them.
–Pray that Bibi and the Israelis will be able to catch the lies and present the truth, every time the falsehoods arise to deceive the world.
–Pray that the Lord would deal with Abbas once and for all. Fix him, fry him, or finish him, Lord … according to Your will and timing!
–Pray that the western world would FINALLY see that lies are the standard modis operandi for the Moslems and for Islam. STOP BELIEVING WHAT THEY SAY!
–Pray that YHVH will bring shame down on these humanist physicians for trying to tie up the hands of the Israeli leadership from using the weapon of truth against the lies. The most basic human right is to speak the truth.
**LIES: The western media has largely ignored the violence against the Jews in Israel during these past couple of weeks. Rather than put Israel is a good light and the Palestinians in a bad light, they ignore the incidents, and refuse to report them to the public. When they do report something going on in Israel, it is usually in such a way that reports Palestinian deaths without mentioning why they were killed … i.e. attacking Jews with deadly intent and force. They leave the impression that the Jew are killing Palestinians without cause. In addition to stabbings, pipe bombs, or firebombs, the Jews are also suffering physical beatings at the hands of the Palestinians. None of that activity is hitting the newsstands either. It’s shameful!
–Pray for the spirit of Conviction to come down upon the reporters, cameramen, editors, etc. when they attempt to hide or bend the truth … when they report lies or half-truths.
–Pray that the members of the media in the field will personally experience a bit of what they deny is happening to the Jews. Cause them to be afraid and to feel the threats that the Jews experience every day … threats, which the media ignores or encourages.
**It is becoming very difficult for the Jews to know where or when the next stabbing attack will arise. This situation of violence (the Intifada of the Blade) is different from the violence in the past.
A precious friend of mine send the text of a note that was posted at her grandchildren’s kindergarten this past week.
Loosely translated the sign said: Warning received starting tomorrow:
Appearing in parks and places where children go – Arab women dressed in regular long dresses including bag, sunglasses. Appearance standard, disguised so as not to arouse suspicion.
Be careful of any foreigner / stranger comes near you
The women terrorists want to kill children with a knife they have in their purse !!!
Guard the children, constantly analyze the environment.
Danger! – be vigilant and alert to any situation
: WARNING !!!!!!
Be vigilant and save yourselves and pass this along to others.
–Pray for DIVINE and angelic protection to be over all the Jewish children and their families.
–Pray for the parents of Israel to be strong, wise, and courageous. If they need to pre-empty an incoming attack by using a weapon, pray that will not hesitate.
–Pray for the Lord to provide a means of escape for the Jewish people against every threat.
–Pray for the Lord to remove the fear and dread that is emotionally challenging the children and their parents.
–When the people are too afraid to think, Holy Spirit, think for them. Tell them what to do.
**Statistics are showing that the average age of these stabbing perpetrators is below age 20. If you want to feel nauseous, go to the Intifada homepage, and see the number of LIKES posted for a guide showing the most effective ways to stab the Jews. Who are these kids, and why are they doing this? Most often, these “terrorists” are high school and college students that have no past arrest records. There is approximately 200,000 young Palestinians each year that are students in Gaza and the West Bank. 40,000 on average receive bachelor’s degrees (often paid for by the UN or the EU), and yet few find employment after graduation. Not only are these youths quite educated, but they also come from fairly prosperous Arab families. These young stabbers are sacrificing themselves; knowing that nearly 50% of the stabbing attackers end up dead. Why are they throwing away their lives? The day-to-day status quo offers them no hope, so they throw their lives into the “protect and liberate al-Aksa” frenzy. At least they will feel like their lives have purpose, when they are unable to find a meaningful job. At least they get some fame and glory as a result of their efforts. These “heroic acts against the Jewish occupiers” make their parents proud, and bring a financial reward to the families. Perhaps they think that the life in the paradise that is promised to them for killing Jews, will be better than this life … with more hope and more peace. It’s tragic that so many young Palestinians are so deeply duped and manipulated by hatred, by hopelessness, and by blood lust, that they would enact such deadly violence against people they don’t even know. Their Islamic clerics play a terrible role in promoting death to these young ones. Raed Salah is a high profile Israeli Arab imam and Israel hater, who exemplifies those, who insight these losses of young life. He said: “In spirit and blood, we will defend al-Aqsa mosque”. Calling forth an ancient lie of blood libel against the Jews, Salah declared: “We never allowed ourselves to knead the bread of the fast-breaking meal in the month of blessed Ramadan with the blood of the children. And those who want a wider explanation should ask what would happen to some of the children of Europe, whose blood would be mixed in the holy bread.” In these words Salah is seeking to create repulsion and condemnation of the Jews; suggesting that they make their Passover matzos by mixing the blood of European Gentile children with Kosher flour. For generations that lie has caused ignorant Gentiles to pick up arms and hatred against the Jews … as well as to fear them for being blood-spilling monsters. Isn’t it ironic that it is in the Moslem code to shed the blood of their children for allah, while the Jews will lay down their lives to protect the children … whether Jewish or Gentile. The presentation of the lie is upside down from the truth. I suspect that the Lord is prepare a rather large number of millstones to put around the necks of these Islamic leaders, who are perverting truth, and causing the Palestinian youth to throw away their lives for a demonic lie.
–Pray that the Lord would grab hold of these young Palestinians and shake them out of this Islamic stupor of lies and violence.
–Pray for righteous leaders to arise from among the Palestinian people.
–Pray for righteous mentors to arise to guide the youth in the way of life, not death.
–Pray for revival among the Arab Moslems.
–Pray for the Lord to deal with Raed Salah … holding him accountable for his blood libel against the Jews and for his incitement of violence against them. Fix him … fry him … or finish him, Lord, as you see fit!
**AN OUTRAGEOUS AWARD WAS GIVEN TO A DEAD TERRORIST, WHO STABBED TWO JEWS TO DEATH AT THE LION’S GATE OF THE OLD CITY ON OCT. 4th.
The Palestinian Bar Association, whose heads are Fatah members and which receives funding from the European Union and the United Nations, announced yesterday that it would award an honorary law degree to Muhannad Al-Halabi, a Palestinian law student who was killed after he stabbed two Israelis to death in Jerusalem’s Old City on October 4, 2015. The association’s announcement said: “The Palestinian Bar Association decided in its meeting today to award an honorary law degree to the martyred hero Muhannad Al-Halabi and to hold its next swearing-in ceremony in honor.” The announcement also noted that “the martyred hero Al-Halabi was an outstanding student at the faculty of law,” and that the head of the association and members of its board had visited his family to convey their condolences and inform them of their decisions.
Is that not the most appalling, in-your-face insane thing you’ve seen arising from academia? Likely the UN will offer law scholarships in this terrorist’s name. When our “peace partners” (the people to whom the world says we must surrender land, our property, and even our security) so greatly honors and rewards those, who murder us, there is no negotiating table even IN the room for us to gather around for peace talks. It’s OVER! Mr. John Kerry would have trouble putting a positive Palestinian spin on this outrage by the Bar Association … but I know he could manage to produce one … as well as promote that spin to the world.
–Cry out to the Lord for justice in this matter.
–Pray that He will bring SHAME and DISREPUTE down upon the heads of those, who honor the cold-blooded murderers of Jews … calling the murderers heroes and brave martyrs.
–Pray that the Palestinian Bar Association will disband. They are lawless anti-Semites, rather than people of truth, law and justice. Their standards are based in bloody sharia, not in the justice standards of the civilized world.
**Israel government will not accept UN troops taking control of the Temple Mount. Israel’s new ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danino, will occupy his post beginning this coming Wednesday. Meanwhile, an emergency meeting of the Security Council convened to discuss the increasing violence in Israel. Israel’s deputy Ambassador to the UN, David Ruth participated. Ruth announced the Israeli position that Israel will not agree to the French recommendation, made to the Council, of deploying international troops on the Temple Mount. Such a move would violate the status quo that has existed well for years. Furthermore, such a move would give credence to the lie of the Palestinians that the Jews are seizing and defiling that territory (and therefore need the help of the world against a Jewish invasion on the Mount). Israel does not want the UN to have a greater toehold of control and authority in the city of Jerusalem (or in the Land). Jerusalem is NOT an INTERNATIONAL CITY, as the Humanist Globalists decree, and plan to establish it as their reality. Israel is not about to hand over her right to defend her own people in her own capital city. When Yeshua is in residence, and on the throne, His new 3rd Temple will be called a House of Prayer for All Nations. But until that Sovereign is ruling in total power over the earth, there will be no other global authority, willingly given dominion by Israel, over His footstool. Bravo!
–Pray that YHVH would back up Israel’s statement that no international troops would be allowed to have authority over Temple Mount.
–Pray for the new UN Ambassador from Israel, Danny Danino, to be wonderfully wise, strong, courageous, protected, influential, and articulate with no compromise. Pray for strong unity and cooperation with Bibi.
–Pray that Yeshua would return soon to rule and to reign over HIS city of Jerusalem.
**RUSSIA IS MAKING A MOVE: Russia is going to come down for Israel’s new oil discovery in the Golan Heights. The Russian news agency declared this week that the oil in the Golan Heights belongs to Syria. Russian will help Syria, “secure” this Syrian natural resource. Cuban troops are now fighting for Assad as Russian surrogates in Syria. Can you hear the Gog Magog war at the door?
Ezekiel 38:10-12
10 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “It will come about on that day, that thoughts will come into your mind and you will devise an evil plan,
11 and you will say, ‘I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will go against those who are at rest, that live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates,
12 to capture spoil and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places which are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired cattle and goods, who live at the center of the world.’
Some say that this war, in which Israel’s enemies to the north of her borders come down to get the treasure (the spoil) of Israel, could be closer than what we think. Israel’s cities do not have walls around them, and big gates that they had in ancient times. The prophet, who saw these futuristic images would have been impressed that the cities were missing this type of stronghold security so common in their day. Largely, the Jews are living life fairly securely … having been gathered from the nations through aliyah. The waste places are now inhabited and we do have a significant level of prosperity. Russia wants oil. The Israeli Golan Heights is the inheritance of Manasseh (Joshua 1:12). As Russia gains power in Syria, we can be certain that this statement by Putin, about the oil of the Golan Heights, will become a huge issue for Israel.
–Pray that the Lord would put His hand down hard on Putin and on Russia … containing them and moving them according to His will and timing.
–Pray that the Lord would keep Israel from taking any bait that would give Russia an excuse to cross her border, or start an incident that could grow.
–Praise the Lord for Manasseh’s oil, and praise Him that Israel is now in possession of that territory.
–Pray that this oil will bless Israel, and that no other nation will steal it.
–Pray that YHVH would also keep His hand upon the Chinese ships that are floating off the coasty of Syria.
–Pray that the Cuban and Russian troops would deal a deathblow to ISIS, but that they would not be able to harm the Syrian Christians with their air strikes or ground troops.
–Pray that more of these Russian cruise missiles that are launching into Syria from the sea would end up landing in Iranian territory. Pray that some of them might even strike the Iranian nuke facilities.
This wave of anti-Semitic terrorism in Israel is not impacting Israel alone. It is being exported to other countries, and manifesting there, as well.
On Tuesday there were several anti-Semitic attacks in London’s Stamford Hill community … which is the area housing a large Jewish population. The first event involved a Moslem shouting anti-Semitic verbal garbage and threats at the driver of a school bus. The bus was loaded with children, who were undoubtedly frightened by the verbal assault. Shortly afterward, a brown skinned man shouted at a group of Jews departing from their synagogue; bellowing “We need to kill all the Jews!!”. That man then followed a Jewish man to his car, and smashed the driver’s side window as he drove away. Later, a man threatened two Jewish women, who were walking on the street. Also on Tuesday (keep in mind that Tuesday was a very violent day in Israel), an Eastern European man shouted curses and vile obscenities at Jews in that same neighborhood. It’s time for those Jews in Stamford Hill to consider aliyah very seriously. But the level of hatred and violence against Jews is not just in the UK or Europe. Also on Tuesday, a black man suddenly attacked, and physically beat a Jewish man, who was quietly sitting on a bench on a main street in Brooklyn. Last Friday, while visiting in New York, two Orthodox Jews (yeshiva students) were attacked by men firing BB guns at them in Queens. This wicked slime of hatred and attack violence is oozing across the earth from the Palestinian territories, to engulf every available heart and mind. Soon Jews everywhere could be hiding and fleeing. Pray for aliyah. It’s time to go home.
–Pray for the angels of YHVH to patrol the streets in London, in New York, and everywhere Jews are living in community. NO MASS TERROR ATTACKS! No deaths of Jews by lone wolves.
–Pray for the Jews to be wise, and to come together in unity.
–Pray for the Jews to hear the voice of the Lord calling them home to Israel before it is too late.
–Pray that this evil violence, and the lies that support it, from the Palestinians, would not be exported to ignite a global attack on Jews.
–Pray for the Body of Christ to arise and protect the Jewish people … patrolling their neighborhoods at night if necessary, serving as escorts to Jewish events, and keeping watch at their synagogues.
–Pray for the Messiah to reveal Himself to the Jews in this time of threat and difficulty.
