Shalom and Blessings;
Were it not that the rest of the world is in total disarray, we would be very concerned about what is going on here in Israel: the government, the people, and society at large is in a total mess; I am not trying to be negative, just factual!
The general population is under heavy lockdown restrictions, we cannot travel more than one thousand meters from our homes, we are subject to road blocks if we take a road that leads out of our city, we cannot have visitors in our home, or meet with more than 5 people publicly indoors. At the same time the government and police are doing nothing when the ultra-orthodox hold huge weddings and funerals, with hundreds to a thousand participants, many of whom masked; something is wrong with this picture!! As a result of this double standard, the COVID-19 infection rate is in the high thousands every day. This is kind of a Deja-vu of the children of Israel when they were in the wilderness with Moses. How sad that our people have not learned anything or changed their rebellious ways over the thousands of years. Please pray for the ultra-orthodox community here, they are blind and are being led by blind leaders.
Revelation 6:8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.
Although this passage is referring to the end of the age, it may very well have relevance today. Authorities fear that a rabies outbreak has occurred among jackals in northern Israel after two people were attacked. So, if we apply the above Scripture to today, we have the sword (wars and strife everywhere, including here), we have the famine (Israelis are going hungry due to job losses), we have the plague (Covid-19 is ravaging the land), and now the final ingredient, wild beasts attacking people. Come quickly Lord Yeshua, redeem us, redeem Israel from all her troubles!
Hi Ellen here…Do you know the difference between a lie and the truth? It is very difficult today due to the constant onslaught of news reports and false, misinformation, both for and against Covid-19 and the vaccines. Stop listening, stop watching news reports and start reading the Word of God more. People are always suggesting a new book they have read…I like to suggest THE BOOK! In addition to the above, stop trying to be correct and do everything right…we cannot! Instead of trying to be right remember that Messiah came to this earth as a man to be right for us…sounds sort of disjointed but I know you know what I mean…the law is not kept by us keeping it, but by knowing Messiah is keeping it for us. Have faith, God is in charge…always!
