The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) is time to rejoice and remember how Almighty God took care of the Israelites in the 40 years in the Wilderness. This is a great time in Israel when the nations come to gather to celebrate this great Feast of the Lord.
HOWEVER- This year it is not so peaceful, not such a joyful time because of the threats of the bullies who threaten their peaceful way of life. Below is a photo of a Jewish father (Abba) taking his 2 young sons to the Western Wall to celebrate Sukkot. Muslim women surrounded the family and began to shout, spit and call them names. Then young Muslim men joined with kicking, spitting and shouting hate filled words. The little boy cries out Abba Abba! But the father could do nothing. Not only that, not one person helped them. No believers, no shop owners, no Jews, no police. The video is online to view.
Now the little nation is being bullied and the world is silent. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a stunning address to the United Nations on their silence, and apathy as nations surround them determining to wipe them out. Below is the size of Israel in comparison to surrounding nations that are filled with hate.
Believe me when I say, they are crying Abba Abba to Father God, who is a covenant making God and a covenant keeping God. Do I feel sorry for Israel? No! I am standing with Israel and with the promises God made and is keeping with Israel- Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! I do feel sorry for those who come against Israel- they are coming against the God of the Universe! And He always wins.
Isaiah 62:1, For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burns. (6) I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent, (7) And give Him no rest till He establishes and till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
Amen, well said!
