ISRAEL UPDATE for INTERCESSORS
The cease-fire has been put into effect to the sounds of celebration by Muslims around the world. Nasrallah is now a high level hero, being lauded as the one who defeated Israel, and who safeguarded Lebanon from Israel's planned takeover of that country. Hizbullah representatives are traveling throughout Lebanon giving funds to rebuild any home or business destroyed by the Israelis during the war. Rather than being those who endangered Lebanon, they are now seen as the heroes.
Today the President of Lebanon, Emile Lahoud, boldly announced in an interview that Israel pre-planned the invasion and started the war, not the Hizbullah. He went on to say that the Hizbullah is a vital part of Lebanon and that this organization would never be/should never be, disarmed. He did not want to know who in the government might be affiliated with Hizbullah, nor who the fighters and organizers might be. The reasons he gave for wanting no knowledge of the group was that this secrecy makes Hizbullah powerful and effective as an army of guerillas to defend Lebanon. Again and again this man praised the Hizbullah and was grateful that the Lebanese army would be working in cooperation with them and with the French to keep out the terrible Israeli invaders. Listen to his words: "Hezbollah enjoys utmost prestige in Lebanon, because it freed our country. All over the Arab world you hear: Hezbollah maintains Arab honor, and even though it (Hezbollah) is very small, it stands up to Israel. And of course Nasrallah has my respect." The lies and distortions are flying around the globe. Every major Islamic country has applauded the victory of Hizbullah, and has praised the group for fighting with such honor to defeat the Jews. Never mind that Israel did not start the war, and that actually Iran, Syria, Hizbullah and Hamas pre-planned it. There is no thought of the devastation brought upon the Israelis by thousands of rockets and missiles being launched into Israel ... nor of the fact that the civilians were targeted with projectiles packed within the rockets to increase the level of death and injury.
Again, the Jews are being reported as the wicked ones and the Islamic terrorists as the righteous ones. Sadly, much of the Western world is buying the lie. The Islamic nations are now standing up tall, smelling Jewish blood and suggesting that now is the time for the jihad to come from all directions to defeat both Israel and the USA. It is difficult for the western secular mind (and even for the western Christian or Jewish mind) to understand the depth and purpose of these Islamic fabrications. It is hard to understand how it is that so many people could hate Israel without cause. How is it possible to have millions of Arabs and non-Arab Muslims so willing to die to destroy Israel and the Jews? Without the truth and without understanding, the world forms its conclusions that the Muslims are certainly telling the truth, because their report is so consistent and so encompassing. Surely they wouldn't lie, and surely there would not be such widespread support for the "facts" being expressed by the Islamic nations, unless there was just cause. Western ignorance is a factor here. The problem stems from the fact the Koran highly praises lies spoken to and about an enemy. Any lie that can give the Muslim an advantage to defeat an enemy is considered a righteous act and even an obligation. The Islamic hatred of Jews is so integral to the writings in the pages of the Koran, and the Koranic commentary, called the Hadith, that is foundational to the purpose given to any Islamic life. It is spread from generation to generation ... an indoctrination supported through the media and through the educational system. If you doubt it, take a looks at this actual cartoon (shown on the website below), which is merely one of the many such cartoons shown daily to Islamic children. Take a moment and go the this site ... see just one of these cartoons that forms the minds and sets the hearts of Arabic and non-Arabic Muslim children onto a deceptive path of destruction.
Children trust what they see and what they are told by grown-ups. Children have strong, consuming emotions, and great longings to battle against anything that is raised up as a threat. Western children often dress up as Superman or Batman to become a superhero against "the bad men or monsters of the world." Imagine if our children, from a tiny age, were told that Jews, Israelis, and Zionists are the most evil and threatening beings in the whole world. Imagine the impact on a child, if they are shown images of wicked Jews slaughtering mothers and fathers of small children. Beyond instilling fear and hatred through these lying images and words, the children are told what they must do in reponse. Kill! Such mental abuse of childhood innocence is beyond comprehension for most of us. Yet it is a daily reality in Islamic nations. It is a steady diet for Palestinian children, in and out of their homes and classrooms.
Yeshua had some very strong words about adults who would do such things to little children. Matthew 18:6 speaks that it would be better for someone, who causes a little child to stumble away from true faith, to have a millstone around his neck, and be drowned in the sea ... suggesting that what God would do to this person would be horrific. Personally, I have difficulty understanding how the Lord can stand to watch this wicked perversion of small children ... intentionally conducted by people with the agenda to raise within them sufficient hatred against the Jews, so that they would live for the purpose of killing them.
I believe that the God of Israel will soon stand up and deal with this wickedness. Therefore, I believe it is important for intercessors to arise and to pray for these children being fed this indoctrination, robbing them of truth and innocence. Being brought up under this unholy agenda denies them of any sense of peace or safety in childhood. As they grow, these deceived children become pawns under the power of demonic entities, so that they will act out things which will require the God of Israel to curse them and to destroy them. Satan wins, every time one of these children grow up and become a suicide bomber. He wins every time the hatred and lies are passed from one generation to another. Only God can counter this generational hatred, falsehood, sin and curse.
--We must cry out in mercy for Him to intervene ... pray that God will prove, though a demonstration of power and truth, that Allah and Islam are both false and wicked.
--We must pray that God would utterly humiliate Islam by demonstrating His reality and power, so that it can be see by ALL the nations.
--We must pray that these young minds, whether Arabic, Persian, etc., be protected somehow from absorbing the lies as their truth.
--We must pray that their hearts would sense truth and be alerted to falsehood. Pray that an appetite for truth and life would fill them.
--We must pray that Islamic mothers will have a revelation of the true God, so that they will not send their children off to die for the honor of a false god.
--We must pray that the lust for blood and death, be changed into a longing for life.
--We must pray that the powerful hatred from Jews and for Israel, be turned into an overwhelming fear of the God of Jacob.
This cease-fire will be short-lived. Truth has not been victorious; instead, falsehood has been given victory, credibility and honor. The Muslims must come to see and to know WHO IS GOD ... WHERE IS TRUTH ... WHAT IS LIFE. The generational curses must be broken by the blood of Messiah. The entrapped adults and victimized children must be set free. If we pray for revival among the Muslims, the threat against the Jews will be greatly reduced. When the Arabs and the Persians hunger for life and for truth, rather than accepting the menu forced upon them, which consists only of death and hatred formulated by lies, Israel's neighbors will stop trying to destroy her. Before the Lord strikes His blow against these followers of Islam, let's pray for revival and revelation to come to them. The cup of wickedness is nearly full. We have little time. The viper has become emboldened and is preparing to strike a deadly blow against Israel. Therefore, it won't be long before we see the hand of the Lord move in crushing power. Pray for the peace and safety of Israel. Pray for the revival of Israel, so that she will come to know her God and Messiah. However, at the same time, let's urgently pray release for the Islamic children and revival upon all the Islamic nations. Mercy, Lord! Mercy and liberation into truth!
This just demonstrates the foreknowledge of God.... This quote is from Genesis 16:12, when God was telling Hagar what kind of man Ishmael would become.
Quote:
He shall be a wild man; His hand shall be against every man, and every man's hand against him. And he shall dwell in the prescence of his bretheren.
Many of the modern-day Arab peoples correctly recognize that they are the descendants of Ishmael, while the Jews, and the rest of the Israelites, are descendants of Isaac...
The descisions made by Abraham and Sarah are at the root of this Middle Eastern conflict, a conflict that will continue until either Israel or the Muslim countries are destroyed, or Christ comes back to reign.

Helping God Out
The Middle East is the world's best example of humans saying, "Well, God can't do this by himself, so I'll help him out". If Sarah had just believed that God would do what He said, she would never have given Abraham her servant to try to fulfill God's promises on her own.
