Israel elections–Speculative or prophetic?
I never have been a fan of speculative journalism–that is coming of with a scenario and discussing it as if it were fact. In journalism, we are supposed to write about the facts. Problem is these days, that there is so much deception that it is difficult to get to the facts. Now prophecy is another animal altogether. Prophecy is the facts yet to come and the events surrounding what will bring them about as they play out. The current situation in Israel is a prophetic one. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has held the line on negotiating with terrorists and has been strong on the protection of Israel. He has been like a candle in the wind of nonsensical liberal dogma seeking to destroy Israel.
Netanyahu is in the way. The occupant of the Oval Office and other leaders around the world that are trying to guide into existence an end time caliphate against Israel need a weak, leftist minded, Islamist Marxist-trusting leader at the helm in Israel. They need someone who will give in to having a hostile terrorist state cutting across the midsection of Israel. They need Iran to have nuclear power. They need the Islamic State to advance. They need to topple Bashar Assad’s Syrian government. They need to topple any stable government that stands in the way of the Islamic State and Iran’s upcoming Persian-Assyrian empire. They need it, not because they believe in prophecy playing out, but because they hate Israel.
I do not want to give the impression that I favor the US “president” or the Islamic State because they are advancing prophecy. Those who know me and read my posts know that I renounce and deplore all they stand for. But I do see them as tools of the dark side in advancing end time prophecy. It is just that we as a people, as Christians and Americans, should not have leaders that favor satan and his move toward the Beast government of the end times–no matter how much we want Jesus Christ to return. It does not bode well for us. As the prophet Zechariah writes in 12:3, “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces.”
The Lord also says in Zechariah 12:9, “And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.” The US “president” has done all within his power to bring about that day where the enemies of Israel come against Jerusalem–he has destabilized the Middle East, helped birth the Islamic State, empowered the Muslim Brotherhood, and has campaigned against Netanyahu. He has taken America on a fast track to the prophetic dark side, a journey that is sure to have prophetic ramifications for each of us. We are to: never become weary in doing good; to overcome evil with good; to let our light so shine before men that they may see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven. This does not mean hastening prophecy by allowing evil to advance. Making disciples is a more acceptable path.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
