As you probably already know, the situation on the borders of Israel in the north and south are heating up. As is the political situation surrounding the Prime Minister, as those of you who keep up with the state of things in Israel also know. Despite these threats to the stability of the nation, Yeshua presently reigns from on high — behind the veil, so to speak — seeing to it that God’s plan of redemption continues to advance until it is completed! The ‘great commission’ is until the end of the age, which has not yet come, but is definitely nearing each day and month and year.
Yesterday we had an Arab brother, who pastors in the western Galilee, teach at Yeshua’s Inheritance Cong., and we were joined by a congregation from Arad for the joint service. The pastor and I were joined by the senior elder from Arad to pray for our nation, and for the gospel to go out to whomsoever, that many be saved before the great and awesome Day of the LORD (YHVH) that will eventually bring this ‘age’ and ‘this world’ to its finality. At present, there is the priority for evangelism as God both demonstrates His hidden presence in Israel (similar to the first Purim in the Scroll of Esther), but also His displeasure over His people’s unrepentant heart and mind towards Him and to His Son. As we are studying the book of Isaiah in our mid-week group, both elements are very clear as the prophet is given revelation through to the end-times of the last days and the coming Kingdom of God.
