Israel became a nation again on Iyar 5 on the Hebraic calendar. On the Gregorian calendar that fell on May 14, 1948. That year was a leap year on the Hebrew calendar so there was 13 months that year, so this year the 70th Anniversary will fall on April 20. Since that day is a Friday and begins the Shabbat at nightfall, the celebration in Israel will be on April 19.
One thing that we need to understand in these days is that “history merely repeats itself” (Ecclesiastes 1:9 NLT) The Amplified Bible reads, “That which has been is that which will be [again], and that which has been done is that which will be done again.
I have followed Bill Koenig of http://www.watch.org for years about the cycles of April 19 in History. I have recorded three programs regarding this event of 2018. This first program I will help you to understand cycles. Weathermen and Wall Street stockbrokers understand how cycles affect us, but the Church as a whole has been ignorant of the Cycles on God’s calendar.
The enemy of God wants to terrorize God’s people and will use cycles to bring fear of dates of historic events, causing them to dread these days coming. God wants us to be aware, on watch for things that are about to happen with repeating of history.
