State of Israel Address
Shalom from Jerusalem,
I want to start by giving you an overview of where Israel finds itself today, and to encourage you too deep prayer. The Lord started revealing to me the realities of the days in which we live as a small child. I have grown up watching the puzzle pieces falling into place, and today the prophetic picture is coming together with such speed, it will be impossible to keep ahead of it on a day-to-day basis.
I am aware of the different aspects of a global government and what is happening around the world, and I may have to comment on it from time to time, but I cannot stress how important the events in Israel are to the big picture, and how much you must stay apprised of them, and to keep in prayer for Israel even when your country is facing extreme hardship. It will be very tempting to focus inward and brush Israel aside when your country is facing attacks from within, but the center of all issues in God’s eyes rests on Israel and the restoration of the Jewish people. Literally all unfulfilled prophecy centers either on the restoration of the Jewish people and the land of Israel, or the judgment of the nations who oppose it. I am sending this warning because I believe the world is about to enter a time of intense, yes even violent change.
Ariel Sharon lies deep in a coma we are told, while the U.S. dictates to Ehud Olmert who his cabinet will contain (Shimon Peres and Dov Wiesglass) and what his policies will be (continued dissection of Israel). Olmert is well know for his betrayal of values in order to gain political position, and he is already towing the line and promising more than even Shimon Peres could hope for. Peres in the meantime is traveling to Washington to help formulate the final steps to the demise of Israel, even amidst the latest charges of financial impropriety being launched by an Attorney Generals office that will ultimately do nothing to bring this enemy of the state to justice.
A little inside information:
A senior staff member in Hadassah Hospital told a colleague of mine that Ariel Sharon is actually dead, and is being kept alive artificially on life support systems until the time is right to announce his death. This is something I suspected the night they took him into the hospital. The severity of the hemorrhaging was too much for anyone to sustain. Many questions have arisen regarding the care of Sharon, which lead to the inescapable question, “Was he medically assassinated.”
Some of the issues are these:
He had a medical condition that precluded the use of blood thinners for the very reason that the combination of the two would likely cause brain hemorrhaging, and yet he was given excessive amounts of blood thinners daily following his initial stroke.
Why was an elderly, obese man who was under constant stress and who was scheduled for surgery the following morning (due to a stroke he had suffered two weeks prior) isolated on his ranch so far away from the hospital he was going to check into the next day? There was no medical team present, just the same bodyguard that accompanied Rabin the night of his assassination.
Why was he taken by car when a military flight for life helicopter could have taken him to the same hospital in one-quarter the amount of time?
It is interesting to note that he was about to be investigated; again, for campaign finance fraud, and that it was pointing to associations with Shimon Peres and Dov Wiesglass. Peres and Wiseglass are partners in the Jericho Casino that was partially owned by Arafat, along with the Austrian businessman who gave Sharon a three million dollar contribution. This same consortium had plans to eventually build another Casino in Gaza after the completion of the disengagement. Coincidence? Yes Sharon was obese, elderly, and under constant stress, but my gut tells me that this was not a natural occurrence.
A friend who is a correspondent here interviewed Dore Gold, former Israeli Ambassador to the U.N., advisor to Prime Ministers Netanyahu, and Sharon, and the founder of a Jerusalem based think tank and strategic policy analytical group. Dore had these off the record assessments of the days ahead.
Firstly, the scenes behind the façade are such that chaos is reigning within the Israeli government. No one is in firm control, and there are no cohesive strategies in place to deal with the U.S. , Europe, the Arab states, or the Palestinian problem. The U.S. is dictating unworkable demands while there is no one to counterbalance these demands. One thing that Dore Gold says Sharon did have with the White House was a promise that Israel would always maintain defensible boarders, but the demands from Washington are clearly contradicting that promise today. I have said for man y years that if Israel is forced into pre 67 boarders its only defense option will be nuclear.
Secondly, Israel is preparing for a first strike nuclear attack from Iran. They believe that Iran has the weapon ready and available, and it is only a matter of time before a launch. Israel expects to lose either, Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv, or Be’er Sheva in a first strike. Their current diplomatic approach is to promise Teheran that Israel’s retaliatory strike will be twice as bad as Iran’s first strike. I remember however that Iran’s last President made a statement that nuclear war with Israel was winnable on the basis that Iran had fifty million people compared to Israel’s six million, and that even if they sustained a 75% loss, Iran would survive, but Israel will have been “wiped off of the map”. They care more about killing Jews than they do about the lives of their own people. This past weekend an Imam in England declared that Allah loves the spilling of blood. Arafat used to say that he would win the war because the Jews love life. Islam has no respect for life, an d rabid anti-Semitism is a spiritual disease that knows no boundaries in its pursuit of the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people. Iran will not hesitate to send the warhead when the time is favorable. Why? Because Islam is nothing less than the manifestation of the devil in the earth. I am afraid the western world has waited too long to heed the warnings, they are in bed with the devil, and like the snake he is, he is about to strike. There can be no doubt that the U.N. is purposefully complicit in Iran’s preparations, and when we look at the Russian and Chinese component in all of this, I have no doubt Iran will at least attempt to launch, and that it will be the catalyst to a war that none of us wants to even consider.
Mr. Gold also confirmed something I had speculated about in one of my earlier reports approaching Yom Kippur, and that is a coordinated assault from all of our neighboring countries. Israel is alarmed at the level of infiltration of Al Qaeda into Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and especially Jordan, Egypt, and the Palestinian territories. Whereas Israel felt the threat from Jordan and Egypt was contained, today they see them as additional battlefronts in a fast approaching and inevitable war. This is particularly troubling in light of the intense build up and modernization of the Egyptian army over the last decade. Of course, one had to always wonder, whom was Egypt preparing to fight? They had no natural enemies in the region.
As so clearly foretold, Gaza has been turned into the largest and most heavily armed terrorist base in the entire world just in the short few months since being turned over to the Palestinians. Hamas was radical enough already, but again with the infusion of Al Qaeda into the mix, the hatred is covering Israel like a blanket and you can feel the sense of coming doom. At least I can. Mr. Gold said that they have intercepted communications and know that within six months the Palestinians have plans to start launching their newly acquired and more accurate missiles into the center of Ben Gurion airport, at the rate of two per day. They know that if they can bring down one plane, or knock out one terminal, if they can score even one or two clo se hits, that all international carriers will stop all flights into and out of Israel, effectively turning Israel into an isolated prison camp for the Jews.
The Arabs are now launching missiles towards Ashdod and Ashkelon, and the other day nearly took out a chemical storage facility. Had it hit its target, the prevailing ocean winds would have carried inland a cloud of toxic acidic death.
In the meantime, Abu Mazen, Arafat’s heir, has lost all control of the Palestinian territory. His government is bankrupt, and will likely fail to pay the 130,000 people they have on the payroll in the coming month. He has cancelled all appointments, and is locked in a state of depression. He has said he will not run for re-election. All of this paves the way for Hamas and other even more radical influences to gain control of the situation. In the midst of all this, the U.S. is demanding that the P.A. allow Jerusalem Arabs the right to vote, effectively dividing Israel’s capital and saying to the world Jerusalem is no longer sovereign Israeli territory. The most disgusting twist to the whole thing is that Hamas represe ntatives, dedicated to the destruction of Israel, could actually be elected to fill four seats in the Israeli Knesset.
A couple of days ago an article appeared in a couple of papers declaring the next step in the Road Map was to close Highway 60 to all Jewish traffic, to allow for free and unhindered movement for Arab travelers. The European communities want to see Arabs free from having to suffer Israeli checkpoints, or to have to be inconvenienced traveling the roads along side the Israelis.
Highway 60 is the main highway through the mountains of Samaria and Judea. The same mountains in which God promises to return His people and plant them, never to again be rooted up. Israel spent billions of dollars building this highway, and untold thousands of travelers, including me, from the Negev to the Galilee will be unable to travel this road to work, or to school, or to families or businesses, and will be forced out of the way to narrow roads, many times running through hostile Arab villages and territories, to go two, and three, and four times as far as they did before to accomplish their daily tasks. It will cause untold logjams that will be literally immovable in many places.
To give you an example, I use this highway every day to get from where I live into Jerusalem. I do travel through Arab areas most of the way, but if I lose access to this road, I will have to re-route through a narrow mountain canyon road that has no shoulders, no place to pass or turn around, and that has large trucks hauling heavy loads regularly. Even on a good day without traffic, this will make my trip to work three times as long, cost me three times as much in gas, and will put three times as much wear and tear on my car as it does now. Add to that the fact that thousands of cars are going to be pushed onto this narrow one lane road, and that these trucks often travel about ten miles per hour going up steep inclines, thus backing everything up for miles upon miles, and you have a situation that is a powder keg for tensions and accidents, and in which no one will be able to get to and from their daily destinations. It is completely unworkable, and it is my belief that this is exactly why they are doing it.
The next part of the unilateral pull out that Sharon had promised was the disengagement from Judea and Samaria. This area has 250,000 people living in it, and it will be a logistical nightmare to remove people from this broad area. I believe this move to restrict the travel of Jews in Judea and Samaria is the first turning of the screws. They hope to make it so impossible for anyone to live in these areas that they will give up and move out on their own prior to any forced evacuation. The people foisting this upon Israel are evil, inspired by what can only be described as a devilish mind. Only the devil could come up with such plans. They do not care about the lives of one single person, not even the children. They will cause unrelenting suffering upon the people of Israel no matter what the cost in order to bring the population into submission. I suspect that U.N troops will be employed during this process. The presence of U.N. vehicles and personnel is growing and has been for some time. It is common to see long convoys of Large military transport type trucks with the U.N. insignia moving through these areas.
It is insanity that Israel is knowingly going to give the heart of the country over to known terrorist, that have no viable government to negotiate with now that Mazan has lost all control (not that he ever had anything but foul intentions any way). With the recent experience of Gaza, no one is saying “Wow, we really blew it” instead the left presses on, and the country so weary of war is blindly following hoping beyond hope for some sort of peace.
There is no one in the government that can be trusted, and certainly no one that has a prayer of being elected. Some people are holding out hope the Netanyahu has been reformed and will do the right thing if elected, but most don’t trust him and I doubt from current polls if he can get elected. I suppose this may be exactly what the Lord wants right now in order to force us to cry out for Him, and not look to a human king to come to the rescue.
To recap our situation:
Our government is infiltrated with corruption and treason, and is in a state of chaos with no clear leadership, and all our enemies know it (that would be pretty much every country worldwide).
Iran will most likely launch a nuclear missile in the very near future sparking the war of God and Magog.
All of the surrounding Arab countries are poised to strike in a single hour from all sides.
We have a fifth column in the Palestinians that has been firmly established in our inner regions like a cancer that is about to start launching missiles at our airport, deep water ports, infrastructure of all types, and who are now arming the general population with MK 47s and handguns, including the children, and preparing them for mass civilian uprisings.
The only control in the Arab controlled areas is the radical Islamist who have but one mission, the destruction of Israel, and all the while the U.S. and Europe are forcing Israel to further commit national suicide by handing these terrorist everything they want on a silver platter. What ever happened to the war on terror?
The heartland of the country is being brutally ripped out of the grasps of the only people who have a God given right to be there. And the worst part is, it is not foreign troops doing it, but Jews doing it to Jews.
In the natural I would say that Israel is history. There is no way we will survive another year or two. Fortunately, I know our battle is not fought in the natural.
But I am here to say that we are in great peril. Without intercession, I dare say that we could actually face extinction. When the words ‘spiritual warfare’ come up, images of people shouting at the devil and binding this and binding that come to mind. I am not saying that there is not a place for such warfare, but I am convinced that what we need today is the kind of warfare that we wage within our own lives against the works of the devil in us. We cannot come fully into God’s presence and petition Him for Israel, or the world for that matter, until we have surrendered everything unto Him. And I want to tell you, it will require everything.
The western world, and particularly the U.S. are being threatened with increasing terrorist activities, and I am certain that a catastrophic event is in the near future for America. I believe that will be a day that Israel will also find itself under attack. At least that is what I would do if I were the enemy. That means that wherever you are, your life is about to undergo intensive change as well. I received a report from Jim Bramlett that says terrorist are purchasing pre-paid cellular phones in the tens and hundreds. They can only be doing this for one reason, to use them as detonators. This is not a good sign.
Jim also sent a prophecy, which of course no one can know if it is valid until after the date of the prophecy comes and goes, of a number of children and a couple who have all had visions about New York and six other major North American cities being attacked on January 23rd, 2006. That is a week away. I am not saying this is going to happen, but I bring it up because it could. And if not the 23rd, I am certain that a day looms in the future where something exactly like this will happen and it will spark a series of events unparalleled in history.
I do not want to scare you or send people into their closets trembling in fear, but I feel I MUST warn anyone who will listen about the impending danger to us all. This IS the wake up call. This is the time of our destiny, and this is the time to get everything in your life right before the Lord. Now is the day to discard all fear and start talking to your neighbor, your family, your friends, even your enemies about their eternal destiny. We must be about our Fathers business because there comes a day in which no man will be able to work.
I know this has been a long report, thank you for your staying with me. There is much to be thankful for, so thank God in all things. .And there is much to be prayerful about, so pray with all you heart. May the Lord Bless You.
