“Thus says he Lord
God, “Surely in the fire of My jealousy I have spoken against the rest of the
nations, and against all Edom, who appropriated My lands for themselves as
possession with wholehearted joy and with scorn of soul, to drive it out for a prey. Ezek. 36:5).
Hey Gang: In one of
my many morning pondering seasons and conversations with the Lord, I asked Him
the question, “if He (God) did indeed send a curse over America for our
throwing Israel under the bus, as He promised in Joel 3:2 and the Abrahamic
covenant (Gen. 12:3), and suddenly our nation experienced a Katrina or Mount St
Helen’s, would the people recognize it as the wrath of God speaking? Or would
they sluff it off as just another Climate Control issue that has filled the airways
in the past eight years”
Since that fateful day, when our United Nations
representative abstained from voting on the proposal that would divide the land
of Israel and sweep them back to the 1967 borders, there have been mega
communications that come through the airways- some for and some against- but
none have laid out the real story, that being it was more than an attack on
Israel, it was a frontal attack on God.
In other words, the so called media representatives do not
have a clue what the significance of this tragic vote is or the ramifications
that could come out of our rejection of God and His chosen land and people. After doing several hours of research of the
many articles that have come across the airways in this two-week period and a
hour or two of cut and pasting, I came across an article titled ‘? A
Palestinian State’ by Matt Ward. This article gives us an excellent and
complete overview of what all of this means.
He
begins by telling us: “The consequences
of the obvious recent US betrayal of Israel at the UN will be huge. There will
be significant, real world implications stemming directly from Barack Obama's
decision to abstain from UN Security Council resolution 2334, which
subsequently allowed for Israel’s unanimous condemnation on Friday 23rd
December, in the UN Security Council.
This betrayal will be felt deeply by
Israel, despite the Obama Administrations spin that this was merely an act of
“tough love,” toward its one-time Middle East ally.
This wasn’t an act of ‘tough love’ at all, it was an act of utter rebellion. It
was an act of bitter hubris towards a hated enemy, and it was delivered by the
Obama administration in the worst possible way, under the guise of ‘friendship’
and with a smile. Never has betrayal looked so abhorrent or felt so obvious.
For Israel, left reeling in the wake of this anti-Semitic UN resolution, the
impact will be felt at every level. This
resolution is not just meaningless diplomacy, it endangers the very existence
of the State of Israel, and we will now see a real attempt to delegitimize
Israel as a nation state.
This resolution has effectively made all Israeli settlements illegal and
defacto handed them over to the Palestinians. It has divided the land, or at
least in real terms, begun that process. (Read Joel 3:2)
This resolution means that from this day
forward any person or business involved in Jewish settlement enterprise or business,
in for example the West Bank, could be sued in courts all over the world.
It means that the BDS movement, which despises Israel, have received a huge
false legal justification for their anti-Semitic campaigns. They will now gain
momentum in every EU and western country in the world. We will see widespread
boycotts of Jewish settlement goods in Europe, the United States and across the
world. It is merely a repackaged form of old school anti-Semitism.
This resolution means that Israeli politicians, Prime Ministers, IDF officers
and soldiers, as well as normal Israeli citizens could actually be indicted
by the International Criminal Court at the Hague.
This resolution means that banks,
businesses, retailers, factories and any other Jewish enterprise located in
so-called ‘settlement’ areas are now likely to be black listed. Other
international businesses, banks, retailers and enterprises will no longer do
business with them. These businesses will go to the wall.
This resolution will also create a mechanism to monitor and report back on
Israel to the UNSC, on her perceived “transgressions” once every three months.
This will mean Israel will be constantly critiqued to the most minute degree
for every perceived wrong or injustice committed. They will be constantly
hounded and harassed. Ultimately it could result in the imposition of
international sanctions against Israel.
The Obama Administration still, at this point, has a number of weeks left in
office. It is clear that Obama, and the administration he leads, are intent
upon leaving their mark on history and Israel will be their victim. To that
end, on January 15, France are convening a summit on the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. The great fear is that this current United States administration will
use the opportunity this summit affords to draw up a second UN resolution in
which a Palestinian state will be arbitrarily declared.
The consequences of this betrayal will likely be the creation of a
Palestinian state.
At the time of the end, the single, key sign indicating the beginning of the
tribulation period will be that the man of lawlessness will “confirm a treaty with many for a period of
seven” (Daniel 9:27).
Could it be possible that the following scenario will happen as a result of
this blasphemous action? He will not
instigate the treaty himself, he will confirm one that already exists. It is
becoming increasingly likely, in my mind at least, that this new potential
resolution, which Obama possibly intends to pass before the end of his
presidential term in January, may be that treaty “confirmed with many.”
The time in which we live today, is quite simply the most prophetically
significant period of the last fifty years, and certainly of my lifetime. It is
that important.
“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, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against
it.” (Zechariah 12:3)
My
great concern, as I listen to the so called wizards in our nation, is that I
sense they do not have a clue what the ramifications of this decision really
means. William Koenig, a correspondent
who operates out of the White House wrote a book in 2008 titled Eye to Eye,
Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel in which he listed 57catostropic
events that occurred in the Unites States between 1991 and 2005, on each
occasion, Israel’s giving of covenant land was the hot topic of discussion. (This
did not end in 2008 – only the book.
News today is filled with things that happen immediately after on-going
negotiations and decisions.)
Well,
my friends, this has turned out to be longer than I wanted but I have not
included one iota that does not need to be read, studied and understood.
Keep
looking up, because if a Palestinian State is declared in the coming month, and
the land of Israel is divided, there will be one heck of a storm coming, directly
from God. January 15 could be the most
dangerous day in our nations history. Might be interested to see what happens
in France.
“If My people who are called by My name
humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways,
then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land”
(2 Chron. 7:14).
