Zechariah 12:3 “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.”
Editor's Note: Jim Bakker teaches to watch Israel closely because it is the prophetic timeclock for the unfolding of Last Days events. In Matthew 24, Israel is the fig tree that the Lord told His people to observe to understand the times. It is like a barometer of what is happening in the nations.
Officials say that half of the Israeli population is in bomb shelters because of ongoing rocket attacks in central Israel by the Islamic terrorist group Hamas. The terrorist group has declared in a public statement “all Israelis have now become legitimate targets.”
The leaders of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem opened their city’s public bomb shelters because of the level of the attacks. Officials also told residents to open and prepare their private bomb shelters for the possibility of a prolonged assault.
An Iron Dome battery was able to successfully shoot down an incoming rocket over Tel Aviv. Hamas announced they had fired four rockets at the capital but there was no evidence of three more rockets impacting in the city.
According to the Israeli Defense Force, over 120 rockets struck within the Israeli borders during the night. Iron Dome destroyed 23 rockets in Ashdod, Ashkelon and communities along the Gaza border.
Israeli spokesman Mark Regev told reporters that Israel had reached out to the terrorist group in an attempt to de-escalate the situation and found that the terrorist group was not interested in ending the current conflict. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called world leaders to tell them their position that they could not sit by and allow their country to be attacked by a terrorist organization and not respond to their provocation.
Keep on preaching the truth! Thank-you!!!!!
When has Hamas not considered all Israelis legitimate targets? The Bible says that when the wicked are in authority, the people mourn. That is happening now with the many innocent Palestinians. Hardship will become a way of life and even death with Hamas ruling, I pray for Israel to be protected and that peace will be within it’s border, and I pray for the Palestinians to not pay the price for the terrorism of Hamas. May Jesus be revealed to Israel and the Palestinian people and may the Prince of Peace reign in Jerusalem. I am so looking forward to that wonderful day when Jesus retuns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords and sets up His Kingdom Rule! No more war, no more death, pain or tears. Come Lord Jesus!
Thank you for this important information.
