Today it may seem that Islam will win. There is a tidal wave of momentum especially in Europe which some now call Eurabia.

Jerusalem is the Bait in the Rat Trap

The feeling sweeping much of the globe is that Israel needs to give Jerusalem away to the Muslims which of course would in effect destroy Israel. Israel isn’t Israel without Jerusalem. This is simply a ruse to succeed where Pharaoh, Haman, Hitler, Arafat and others have failed— to destroy the Jews! The Muslim led countries think they are playing the nations of the world like a violin. The UN led by Europe, Russia, China, and the USA are increasingly in lockstep with Islam. There was a man mentioned a moment ago named Haman in the Persian Kingdom led by King Ahasuerus (Ah kash fair oos).  This book of Esther story is usually told during the feast of Purim in the late winter/ early spring, but it is timely–right now.

Haman was riding a wave of seemingly unbridled success in Persia.  The King promoted him to great power and notoriety. Every new day brought more recognition and power to Haman.  He parleyed this success to do something that Amalekites like Haman historically loved to do—kill the Jews. His hatred for the Jews along with his pride and arrogance kept him in the dark about a few critical items of interest:

• To come against the Jews is to come against the Holy One Of Israel!

• The Persian King’s wife was a Jew!

• Mordechai, the Jew that Haman hated the most and even built a gallows on which to hang him,  was the beloved cousin and counselor to the Persian King’s Jewish wife!

Today there is a powerful man in Persia (Iran) who has long reaching tentacles called Hamas, Hizbullah, and others, that stretch to Israel’s borders along with the other nations of the world attempting to destroy Israel. Today all these nations and evil leaders ride a wave of seemingly unbridled power and unstoppable designs to destroy the nation of Israel and, make no mistake about it, then the Jews all over the world!  Mr. Haman’s wave came crashing down on the shore or like a rat trap the LORD snapped the metal bar down on his head when Haman could not resist the bait. You see, the Jews became the cheese in the rat trap for Haman:

Esther 8: 7 “Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.” 

Haman built the gallows for Mordechai, but who went to the gallows? Haman and his ten sons were the gallow’s victims. Like then, it is a hazardous thing today for the nations to lay their hands on the Jews, the land of Israel, and the center of the world–Jerusalem.

For many years the nations have used Islam to destroy the Jews and now Islam is spreading around the world destroying the nations including America!

It may look like the nations will force Israel to give away Jerusalem, but always remember this: Jerusalem is the cheese in the rat trap!

Blessing Israeli Believers,

Zechariah 12:6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem

Commentary

The information about the situation in the Middle East is now coming like an avalanche. I try and post only critical information as not to overwhelm those that follow this blog, but there is so much critical information that I am going to post all of it.

There is lots of disinformation that governments put out so sometimes it is difficult to figure out exactly what is the truth. It does appear that this fall Israel is getting ready to attack Iran. The attack could be postponed but not for long.

The war in Syria could ignite the entire Middle East. Iran and Russia are doing all they can to keep Assad from being removed from power. Turkey, Saudi Arabia and America are doing all they can to remove him. I believe in the long run, he will be removed, and Syria will be part of the Sunni caliphate that is forming against Israel.

There is a possibility that Israel will attack Syria to destroy its WMD. Of course, this would ignite a regional war.

Iran’s nuclear program designed to ‘finish off’ Israel, Hezbollah MP says 08/09/12 This was known all along. Based on the Bible, I do not believe that Iran will obtain a nuclear weapon. Iran’s nuclear ability is about to be destroyed along with most of Islam.

“In a segment recorded and translated by MEMRI (the Middle East Media Research Institute), Sakariya, also a retired general, told his interviewer on Hezbollah’s al-Manar TV Tuesday that should Iran acquire a nuclear weapon it would serve Syrian as well as Iranian interests, namely the eradication of the Jewish state. “This nuclear weapon is intended to create a balance of terror with Israel, to finish off the Zionist enterprise, and to end all Israeli aggression against the Arab nation,” Sakariya said.”

Proposal: Jews, Muslims to Split Temple Mount Prayer 08/09/12 This is total nonsense as the Muslims will never agree to any sharing of the Temple Mount. They would rather die then let the Jews share or have authority over the Temple Mount. This is a flashpoint to start of the all-out war.

PA libel: Israel using chemicals to ruin Al-Aqsa Mosque’s foundations and plans Temple in its place 08/07/12 This is a fantastic article and make sure that you read it and watch the videos. It shows how the Temple Mount will be the flashpoint in the coming war. I believe that the Muslims would destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque and blame Israel to ignite the final Jihad to take Jerusalem! The Muslims are well aware of the coming third temple and will do all they can to stop it. I believe that their efforts to stop it will actually bring about the events to establish it. Just as Hitler’s actions brought about the creation of modern Israel.

“The Israeli occupation sees itself in the stage of the final countdown before the building of the legendary false holy Temple at the expense of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.”

The all-out war in the Middle East is growing closer by the day. It is now just a matter of a short time until it is ignited. This war is going to turn into a world war with the use of nuclear weapons. Many will think that it is Armageddon but it is not.

Keep your heart and mind focused on the coming of the Lord Jesus for His bride. Please do not stray as you can be overcome with fear for what is coming. By focusing on the Lord Jesus, you will be kept from fear. This is coming very fast as the Lord God of Israel is about to loose judgments upon the earth. The Bible’s prophetic plan is about to kick into high gear.

May the Holy God of Israel bless and protect you.

Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Israel and the Middle East War

Israeli War Planes that one day might attack Iran

Decision by Netanyahu, Barak to strike Iran is almost final — Israel TV 08/11/12 This is the type of information that could be loaded with disinformation and used for political reasons.

“Channel 2 News, the country’s leading news program, devoted much of its Friday night broadcast to the issue, detailing the pros and cons that, it said, have taken Netanyahu and Barak to the brink of approving an Israeli military attack despite opposition from the Obama administration and from many Israeli security chiefs.”

US, Turkey plan for worst-case scenarios in Syria, including Assad use of chemical weapons08/11/12 The closer Assad comes to losing power, the more dangerous this gets. Remember that I have been saying for a long time, that the coming war in the Middle East is going to be so massive that people are going to think it is Armageddon, but it is NOT!

“Clinton and Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said their two nations would set up a working group to respond to the crisis in Syria as conditions there deteriorate. They said the group will coordinate military, intelligence and political responses to the potential fallout in the case of a chemical attack, which would result in medical emergencies and a likely rise in the number of refugees fleeing Syria.”

‘We must prepare for conflict on multiple fronts,’ IDF chief of staff says 08/10/12 Israel does not have the resources for a long protracted war. This coming war is going to be fast and brutal and could quickly accelerate to the use of nuclear weapons.

Israel media talk of imminent Iran war push 08/0/12

“Israel’s prime minister and defense minister would like to attack Iran’s nuclear sites before the U.S. election in November but lack crucial support within their cabinet and military, an Israeli newspaper said on Friday.”

France reportedly draws up plans to evacuate 200,000 Franco-Israelis in case of war 08/10/12

Israel fears new generation of jihadists on its borders 08/10/12

Iran and Turkey Rattle Sabers over Syria 09/09/12

U.S. and Gulf Allies Pursue a Missile Shield Against Iranian Attack 08/09/12 It is a race against time. I think that the Russians or Chinese will give the Iranians the technology needed to defeat a missile defense system. The Iranians need just a few missiles to get through to stop the oil refineries which is a main target.

“The United States and its Arab allies are knitting together a regional missile defense system across the Persian Gulf to protect cities, oil refineries, pipelines and military bases from an Iranian attack, according to government officials and public documents.”

IDF plans supply depots protected against missiles 08/10/12 Israel is getting everything ready for the war. The signs of war are now flashing all around us.

“Since the bases will become prime targets for Syria, Hezbollah, Iran and Hamas, the IDF is planning to fortify them with significant defenses and to eventually protect them with Iron Dome counter- rocket batteries. Part of the supply depots will be buried underground to prevent it from being damaged in any future missile onslaught.”

Saudis Threaten to Shoot Down Iran-Bound Israeli Planes 08/09/12 I think that this is disinformation as Saudi Arabia wants Iran’s nuclear program destroyed.

Turkey issues ‘frank, friendly’ warning to Iran 08/08/12 Turkey is a member of NATO and if war breaks out with Iran, NATO will have to aid Turkey. This could drag in NATO which could result in direct confrontation with Russia. This coming war is going to be a monster.

A Map to the Muslim Middle East 08/09/12 This article is loaded with good information

‘Sinai terrorists supported from Afghanistan, Iraq’ 08/08/12 This is important as it shows, when the caliphate is complete, that Muslims from all countries will be part of trying to destroy Israel. Muslims will rush in their attempt to destroy Israel, when they will be rushing to their doom.

Egyptian Cleric Sallah Sultan: People Worldwide “Thirst for the Blood of the Jews” 08/03/12 (Video) As the Muslim Brotherhood gains control, this rhetoric will become the norm.

Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

Commentary
I was traveling but now back home. I will report tomorrow about spiritual insights from traveling.

The tension continues to build over Syria as both Russia and Iran are standing their ground to protect Syria. This looks more like the Spanish Civil War of the 1936 each day.

 The following article shows just how committed both Obama and Clinton are in supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and creating the Islamic caliphate. They know exactly what they are doing. They are not stupid as they know the goals of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is SO clear that as they promote the Brotherhood and the caliphate they are planning on the destruction of Israel. The Muslim Brotherhood’s goal is to create a caliphate with Jerusalem as the capital. They are not hiding this as I have posted their own statements on this blog. Obama knows this, so he is aiding them in this goal. This man is evil to the core. I have to admit that he is really clever. Rather than try to directly destroy Israel, he has backed off Israel but now is full time supporting the Muslim Brotherhood.

Egypt’s Brilliant, Manipulative Muslim Brotherhood 07/30/12 Please read this as it shows how Obama and Clinton are 100 percent behind the Muslim Brotherhood and were directly responsible for Morsi coming to power.

“At 4 a.m. on June 18, only six hours after polls closed and well before an initial count had been completed, the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi held a press conference and declared himself the winner of Egypt’s presidential election. It took nearly a week for election officials to confirm that. When they did, U.S. President Obama called Mr. Morsi the same night to congratulate him. In the interim, the Muslim Brotherhood had established the psychological fact of “President Morsi” on the ground, letting its announcement sink into the Egyptian and international psyche. By the time the official results were in, any other outcome would have seemed fraudulent.”

Many Egyptians were also shocked by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s call for the Supreme Council of Armed Forces to return to their barracks. In June, after the polls closed and Mr. Morsi had declared himself the winner—but before the official results had been announced—Mrs. Clinton said “it is imperative that the military fulfill its promise to the Egyptian people to turn power over to the legitimate winner.”

Obama and the Islamic caliphate will never be able to destroy Israel. The Holy God of Israel is going to be glorified by Israel surviving and thus showing the authority of God’s word through the everlasting covenant God made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Islam is about to realize the authority of the Bible and it will be the hard way when they try and destroy Israel and take Jerusalem.

May the Holy God of Israel bless and protect you.

Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

Israel and the Middle East War
The following articles are all very important to show you what is happening. Right now, Syria is the focus of attention as it could lead to a direct confrontation between the US and Iran or Russia. Israel will attack if the Syrian WMDs get into the hands of Hezbollah.

 Analysis: Has time come for Egypt to retake Sinai? 08/06/12 In the end, the entire Sinai is going to be part of Israel.

‘Our Streets Are Islamic’: Sharia on the West Bank 08/06/12 This is all part of the Palestinians becoming part of the Islamic caliphate against Israel.

IDF foils assault on southern border after terrorists kill 16 Egyptian soldiers 08/06/12 The Islamists will never stop trying to kill Israelis until they are destroyed.

Israel’s EMP Attack Can Send Iran Back to the Stone Age 08/06/12 This is really an informative article with lots of good information. Make sure that you take time to read it.

Israeli officials slam Obama’s ‘wretched’ Iran red line 08/06/12

Damascus underscores Iran’s commitment to Assad 08/07/12 It sure looks like Iran is not going to let Assad fall from power. Iran might send its army into Syria to prop Assad up.

Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?  Isaiah 58:6

We have a very important prayer need for Pro-Life.  Blessing Israeli Believers is going to begin a new chapter in this ministry. B.I.B. will have a division for Israel Pro-Life that, Lord willing, will spread across America!

We have begun discussions with organizations who can network this ministry across the country for Israel Pro Life!  Please pray for wisdom, favor, finances, co-laborers, and most of all that Israeli babies would be saved!

His peace will BE with us. 3. He shall supply all of our needs according His abundance. Even when our hearts are troubled by things that seem too great for us – He is always able. Nothing is too difficult for Him. (Jeremiah 32:17)

Prayers & Praises: Baby Adam’s cataracts have returned again in both eyes. Adam will have surgery for the third time in his young life this week, his right eye today Monday and the left eye on Thursday. The doctors don’t know why the cataracts continue to reappear as this is very rare. Please pray for healing.

Pray for Messianic teen conferences going on this week and next during the Passover school break and that the young people would make decisions to pursue God wholeheartedly

Pray for illegal, unregulated abortions to be fined, clinics to be shut, doctors to lose license.

Pray for every women in crisis pregnancy to hear of the option of help before she decides to abort.

Please, pray that the Holy Spirit will touch believers around the world to recognize the atrocity of abortion on their nations and our nations and desire to stop this innocent bloodshed. Perhaps  fighting abortion is not ‘politically correct’, but for those who are God-seekers, there is no other option.

Please pray for hearts that turn to God, salvation and repentance of the shedding of innocent blood especially as our nation celebrates Passover and remembers the mighty Hand of God who delivered our nation from slavery to freedom. May God use this Passover to redeem lives again today from the angel of Death.

Sharon: Client “M” has recently given birth and came to the office to show off her baby girl. She brought her 17 1/2 year old sister who is 10 weeks pregnant. “O” is now a client. Pray she will get her life together as she has been in boarding schools and on the streets for most of her life. Client “N” had a horrible miscarriage at 22 weeks. She is still traumatized by it, as it is not her first, and comes on the heels of at least 2 prior abortions. Pray for her for comfort. She also needs a lifestyle change!

Vered: She had a call from a 34 year old, with a 12 year old son. She is single. She has had 3 abortions and is pregnant. She is 3 months along and can’t decide what to do, but seems to lean towards keeping the baby.

Sandy Wrote…When anxious, our minds become wrapped around any number of possible scenarios. “What if” becomes the beginning of a lot of sentences: “what if” this doesn’t work out, “what if” that doesn’t work out, “work if” this doesn’t happen, etc.

“What if’s” rarely happen as we imagine them, and even when a difficult situation does present itself, God provides the grace to endure and succeed. Worry will not add a hair to our heads, but it will cause us to take our minds off of the things of God and off of the truth.

The truth is that when we trust God with our needs and cares, He will always meet our needs and give us peace beyond our understanding.

Be'ad Chaim Loves all the Little Ones...Born and Unborn

God is Good:

* Our office was sold last week and we have been given until Aug. 1st to move. I have felt for some time that God is leading us to buy a much bigger office. At this moment, we have only begun to have the finances to buy an office. Please join us today as we seek the Lord for direction, resources, and faith to buy the place that He has ordained. This project is stretching our faith.

* On Tuesday morning, a group is coming from England to plant trees in memory of the unborn in the Ganei Chaim. As always, we want to see healing for all those who have suffered the loss of an unborn child.

Please lift these up in prayer:

* Pray that illegal abortion clinics will be closed and fined. Pray that doctors will lose their licenses for doing illegal abortions.

* Continue to pray for social workers to refer their clients to us as an option to abortion. The term “I have no choice” needs to become obsolete.

* Pray for our outreach to be effective and in God’s appointed places.

* Pray for “S”, an Arab women who will come for counseling this week. Several years ago, we helped her continue her pregnancy until birth although she knew that the baby couldn’t survive. She bravely gave birth, rather than aborting, and saw the baby die several minutes later. Her husband carried the baby from the hospital and buried him. Although she knows that she did the right thing, she still has much pain over her difficult life, the loss of the child and her marriage. Please pray for her.

* Pray for a meeting in Nazareth where I will speak to a group of women on motherhood.

* 17 year old client M would like to move into our women’s shelter, but because of her age, we are not sure that it’s legal without parental consent.

* Continue to pray for baby Adam’s eyes and general development.

* Prayers for health: Baby Netalie has a brain tumor and may have surgery this week. She needs prayer as do her parents.  Alem, new mother, has a brain tumor and kidney problems. Pray for healing.  M, the daughter of one of our counselors, has cancer. Please pray for her healing and salvation. Continue to pray for new mother S who is very ill.

* SHARON IN JERUSALEM WROTE: A single woman “E” is pregnant by her boyfriend who is in jail on felony charges.  A 16 year old is 5 1/2 weeks pregnant by her 16 year old boyfriend. She does not want her parents to know that she will abort.

* MAAYAN IN TIBERIAS SAID: Pray for S who has trouble with her husband. She is 28 years old and wants to have an abortion. Pray for another client, S, who is due in a month in a half. The family situation is very complicated and she is trying to get her own apartment.

* ALA IN BEERSHEVA SAID: Please keep them all in your prayers. They are very stressed out from all the air raids and appreciate our standing with them in prayer.

* VERED IN ACCO SAID: Pray for T who is due in May. She has a disabled child already and the doctors are putting pressure on her to abort because they think there will be something wrong with him.  Pray for M who is due May 10^th. She is unstable and was living on the streets.

* DVORA IN EILAT SAID: Pray for V because she doesn’t have citizenship and they want to send her back to Uzbekistan. She has been here 4 years. Her baby who was born on March 7^th hasn’t been registered.

Written by Brother Dov

Please pray for Oriel (Our partner in Jerusalem), this dear brother has so much pressure and stress due to the nature of his ministry and family related prayer needs. Since he is in the heart of the Old City, getting out the gospel of Yeshua, the spiritual warfare is hot and intense. Oriel’s young son Atar is having epileptic like seizures which puts such anguish in the hearts of the entire family.  Additionally, the problems related to the expense of raising a large family in Jerusalem are ever present. The fatigue to these things can be great.  We at BIB support Oriel monthly to help with the financial needs.

Please pray:

• Protection from the attacks of the enemy!
• Rest that only Messiah Yeshua can provide!
• Deliverance from the seizures for Atar!

SHARON IN JERUSALEM WROTE:

A married with 4 children (inc. twins) where the youngest is only 8 months, came upon our site. She is 7 weeks pregnant and does not want this baby. She does not feel up to another child. Pray she will respond positively to what I told her and will call me back. She lives in Samaria.

Another married woman, in the center of the country, has 3 children, also where the youngest is 8 months old. She is 9 weeks pregnant and told me of her determination to have an abortion because she can’t handle it emotionally, physically or financially. She came to us via our website but didn’t seem to read much of it. Her Dr. is apparently pro-life and tried to dissuade her but she is firm in her decision. Her meeting with the Committee was last Wednesday. Pray she didn’t go through with it.

Mother M. is a client who has a 10 month old son and has moved from Jerusalem to Afula to live nearer family. Yesterday, she discovered that she’s 7 weeks pregnant. Shocked, she scheduled an abortion. After lengthy discussion on the phone, she agreed to keep the baby. Sandy and Shibolit will visit her next week. She is very poor and needs a lot of emotional, financial and practical help. Pray for the baby’s father to find work.

ALA IN BEERSHEVA SAID: Client Y.M. gave birth on the 24th. All is well with mother and daughter. Ala has a new client who came via a social worker. They talked a lot on the phone and Ala invited her to come. She is still undecided.

ROBERTA IN RAMAT GAN SAID: Client M. and her baby son, would like to leave the father/ boyfriend and to move into the women’s home in the center of the country. She is now involved with a married man and will need to make major decisions. The management of the home will meet this week to decide whether she can be accepted. Please pray that Client M. will be willing to make wise choices.

SVETA IN THE KRYOT SAID: Pray for calls! Pray for wisdom for Sveta as she searches for a good magazine/ newspaper for us to advertise in.

VERED IN ACCO SAID: Client I. gave birth on the 13th to a boy and named him Inai. Client B. gave birth on the 19th and named her daughter Rebecca. All is well. A woman phoned asking how to abort. A previously homeless Client M. now has an apartment. She has a one and a half year old child and she is six months pregnant.

MAAYAN IN TIBERIAS SAID: Pray for Client N. in Nazareth, who is due in 4 weeks. We are starting to advertise again in Kochav Ha Zafon this week. It should have gone in last week but the lady was on vacation so it didn’t.

DVORA IN EILAT SAID: She spoke with Client V. who is due very soon. Client V. asked for prayer. Pray for Client D.’s baby. He is allergic to milk, and soya milk isn’t great either. He is very red with a rash. Client M. who moved to be with her family in Rishon Le Zion got an apartment though Amidar. She is very happy.

Report From Blessing Israeli Believers Partners: Ariel & Shayla

'..miraculous return of the Jewish people to Israel and how it is a fulfillment of God’s promises from over 2,400 years ago.'

Thank you for sending out the update about our project, and thank you again for sending the funds for the graphic design!

Quick update on the graphic design: The graphic designer that was going to work on the booklet informed us that he is currently overwhelmed with projects, and recommended that we find another designer if we want to move ahead quickly.  Since we do desire to get this powerful evangelistic tool out into the hands of Israelis soon, we are currently approaching another graphic designer.  Please pray for God’s perfect will to be accomplished in His timing, and for this booklet to have an appealing design that will draw non-believing Jewish people in to read about God’s love for them.

Here’s a story about “Daniel”, whom I spoke with about Yeshua recently………I went to speak with a colleague at my work about a particular issue.  However, the Lord somehow directed the conversation in such a way that we never spoke about that issue – instead, we spoke about Yeshua!

This middle-aged man is named “Daniel”, and he very strongly believes in the existence of God, and expounded on the wonders of creation with me.  I agreed and spoke about the miraculous return of the Jewish people to Israel and how it is a fulfillment of God’s promises from over 2,400 years ago. He was very fascinated by this idea, and had never heard about prophecy and fulfillment before.  He asked me more about the Tanakh (Old Testament), and about what’s written in it.

I explained more, and then presented the Gospel.  I explained about creation, the fall, and God’s plan of redemption.  He was truly touched and surprised by the idea of a humble God – one that would actually care about us enough to come in the form of a man into this broken world.  He was also excited by the idea that Yeshua’s death and resurrection paved the way for ALL people groups to come to God, and that it was not limited to the Jewish people or any other group.

We talked for quite some time, but then something came up, and he said, “Let’s continue this conversation later.”

…….

So he invited my wife and me to come visit him and his family.  He said without any sarcasm, “Who knows? Maybe you’ll persuade us to believe like you do!”

Praise God for such favor!  Please pray with me that God will cause the seed that was planted in “Daniel’s” heart to grow, and that we would have a fruitful visit with him and his family soon.

Blessings in Messiah Yeshua……Ariel and Shayla
