Please keep Randy, Robert Fields and Willie Battle in your prayers as they lead two different basketball camps starting tomorrow morning at 9:00 until 12:30. They will be teaming up with two churches in the Grand Cayman. I am confident the Lord will use them at both camp locations! Word to the wise regarding supporting Israel! As believers we are to support and pray for Israel. The Scripture teaches that the children of Israel are Gods children. Which means God delights in His children and anyone who comes against them are setting themselves up as enemies of God himself. I highly recommend, encourage all Christians to stand with Israel. I will promise you this much, if you stand with them then you are standing with God. And for the record, God did not say stand with them because they are perfect, nobody is perfect. Israel, the Jews will make mistakes just like Americans as well as believers from around the world. God simply commands us to support Israel. I understand what is going on in the Middle East, I also understand that what the media gets its hands on is not always Spot on! I am not saying the media is purposefully lying, what I am saying is that the media does not always have access to all of the details. Furthermore, if someone covering the news is not a believer then you cannot expect them to give a report with a spiritual perspective. And just because someone says this is what happened doesnt mean it is always true. Lying, deception has been around since the Garden of Eden and it is not going to change until Christ returns. So lets all be careful before we cast stones on Israel accusing them of killing the innocent. What does God say? Psalms 122:6 - Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Numbers 24:9 - He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed [is] he that blesseth thee, and cursed [is] he that curseth thee. Zechariah 2:8 - For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. Malachi 3:6 - For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee; and in thee shall all nations of the earth be blessed. Point: God has promised to bless the man or nation that blesses the Chosen People. History has proven beyond reasonable doubt that the nations that have blessed the Jewish people have had the blessing of God; the nations that have cursed the Jewish people have experienced the curse of God. Christians owe a debt of eternal gratitude to the Jewish people for their contributions that gave birth to the Christian faith. Jesus Christ, a prominent Rabbi from Nazareth said, Salvation is of the Jews! (St. John 4:22) consider what the Jewish people have given to Christianity: The Sacred Scripture The Prophets The Patriarchs Mary, Joseph, and Jesus Christ of Nazareth The Twelve Disciples The Apostles While some people try to deny the connection between Jesus of Nazareth and the Jews of the world, Jesus never denied his Jewishness. He was born Jewish, He was circumcised on the eighth day in keeping with Jewish tradition, He had his Bar Mitzvah on his 13th birthday, He kept the law of Moses, He wore the Prayer Shawl Moses commanded all Jewish men to wear, He died on a cross with an inscription over His head, King of the Jews! As believers we support Israel because all other nations were created by an act of men, but Israel was created by an act of God! The Royal Land Grant that was given to Abraham and his seed through Isaac and Jacob with an everlasting and unconditional covenant. (Genesis 12:1-3, 13:14-18, 15:1-21, 17:4-8, 22:15-18, 26:1-5 and Psalm 89:28-37.) Our commitment to Israel was penned by the Psalmist so long ago in Psalm 102:13: You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come. If my post has offended you then either you are not a believer or you are not a student of the Word of God. I pray you will make time to research the Scriptures and discover Gods commands. With all due respect, I would rather offend you then my Creator. What He says is Final and there is no time to waste arguing over what God communicated, settled, promised many years ago in His Word. Israel you have my full support! Love you guys! :))
