Israel Will Strike Iran
… according to Israeli believers with whom we spoke this weekend at the annual Messianic Leaders Roundtable.

Israeli civilians as well as the military are preparing for war, anticipating a devastating backlash. The question now is whether Obama can re-gain Netanyahu’s trust. Pray that our prime minister’s ultimate trust will be in God.
Thanksgivukkah
Americans, are you preparing yet for a convergence of dates that has not occurred since 1888 ~~ and won’t for over a thousand years? Thanksgiving and Hanukkah both fall this month on November 28. This year, God fearing Americans can take courage from the Macabbee story of Hanukkah. The holiday celebrates the miraculous victory of a small band of warrior priests (Macabbees) battling pagan secularism of their day. (You can read more details in the Hanukkah article posted on our web site.) At the same time, Israelis can be stirred to thank God for every good gift, including the existence and sustenance of our people as a nation-state. Israel lives not by might or power, but by His Spirit.
