Watching Israel

I can tell you when I see news about Israel I perk up like our dog does when she hears a noise or senses something different is happening.  It is called alertness.  Right now it looks like the war has begun in Israel and is escalating.  We are not sure what direction this will go but so far Washington is pretty quiet on this one.

Oh, how we need to give attention to the things that are going on in this world that point to kingdom happenings. I am talking about the kingdom of God.  The world is in turmoil.  Their have been hot spots all around but right now it is in Israel.  Israel is still the apple of God's eye.

"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." Spoken in Revelation by our Lord to the churches.  Do we have and ear to hear?  Are our spiritual ears listening to the heart of God?  I want to be there. He says "the Spirit" says to the church...Holy Spirit who is in us if we are born again.  Oh Lord, give us ears to hear.  He wants us to not be caught unawares.  The word I am hearing now is PREPARATION.  We need to prepare, no matter what we believe is going to happen.  In John 16:13 Jesus says "When the Spirit of truth comes He will guide you into all truth and show you things to come". So Holy Spirit is there to show us the truth and also reveal what is ahead of us.  But we must listen.  He won't give us more than we can handle but will reveal day by day what we need to know.  That is why we must go to Him daily and ask, keep on asking, seek, keep on seeking and knock, keep on knocking on the door.  It will be opened to us to know and understand.  I believe there are physical preparations and spiritual preparations that need to be made for what is ahead of us.  Not to be in fear, that is one of the greatest spiritual preparations to be made.  "Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:1.

Things are going to change and we need to be ready.  People of God, we are most blessed.  We have inside information if we seek it through the Word and Holy Spirit.  God lays out His plan in the Word.  He carries it out by Holy Spirit and His people.

Bless the Lord, O my Soul, O my Soul, worship His Holy Name.
