It’s Not The Power Of Israel Or America That Has Changed This War—It Is The Power Of God

If you take all the rockets that fell on Israel from the beginning of the war and all the ballistic missiles that flew from Iran – both times – and you accumulate all their power to kill, then you look at how many Israelis actually were killed, it doesn’t even make sense. Just like the birth of Israel doesn’t make sense to some people, so the survival of Israel doesn’t make sense to others. My only explanation is that the effective and fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much.

To Oppose Israel’s Existence Is To Oppose The Will And Plan Of God

Many within the church sadly fail to understand modern Israel’s existence as an act of God’s will. Such thinking indicts God for permitting Israel’s rebirth and allowing the Jewish people’s return to their ancient homeland—a development that began in the late 19th century, prior to the Holocaust. Yet, God did exactly what He said He would do through the prophets.

‘The Die Has Been Cast’: There is No Going Back From What Iran Set Into Motion On October 7th

What Iran does not understand is that they rolled the dice on October 7, 2023, thereby casting the die for what will soon come upon them. They cannot walk back what has already been set in motion. In their obsession to destroy Israel, the ayatollahs started the process of their own demise.

These Are Indeed ‘Days Of Awe’ In Israel

As Israel looks forward to the Day of Atonement, it is still in a seven-front war — with Iran, Syria, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Shiite militias in Iraq, and Palestinian militants armed by Iran and operating in Judaea and Samaria. But even in the middle of all that, these are indeed Days of Awe.

Remembering The Bloodiest Crime Against Jewish People Since 1945

I have always resisted comparing any event to the Holocaust for fear of diminishing the impact of the Final Solution in the minds of people. This is especially true in our age of historical revisionism, relativism, and Holocaust denial. 10/7 changed everything.

Israel Did The World An Enormous Favor With Its Elimination Of Nasrallah

Israel did the world a favor. Nasrallah was a terrorist who had an enormous amount of blood on his hands—killing scores of Americans, Israelis, and other civilians across the Middle East. Unfortunately, much of the media doesn't report it that way.

The Ill-Fated Ideology Behind Iran’s Goal Of Destroying Israel

On 15 January 2001, Ayatollah Khamenei left Israel in no doubt of his hatred when he said this: “It is the mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to erase Israel from the map of the region.”  If that sounds familiar, consider the words of Psalm 83:4: "They have said, 'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.'"

After Witnessing Massive Miracles, ‘We Are Living In Biblical Times’ Has Become A Common Phrase In Israel

Most people don’t get the magnitude of what we witnessed Tuesday night. One of my news sources, Hillel Fuld, expressed it perfectly. He wrote, “What we witnessed last night was the equivalent of God splitting the sea right before our eyes.” That is not an exaggeration, despite the attempts of the media to downplay what occurred. A common phrase we are beginning to hear around Israel is that we are living in biblical times

During Netanyahu’s UN Address, I Saw Bible Prophecy Being Fulfilled Before My Very Eyes

On Friday morning, September 27, I saw Bible prophecy being fulfilled before my very eyes as I watched Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on television address the General Assembly of the United Nations. It happened as he approached the podium to deliver his address. As he walked forward, two-thirds of the delegates got up from their seats and walked out. Netanyahu was left with an almost empty auditorium to speak to.

Fasten Your Seat Belts: Israel Promises Severe Consequences After Iran Fires Barrage Of 180+ Ballistic Missiles

What a day in God's land. The Iranian regime directly attacked Israel, launching some 181 ballistic missiles at the world's one and only Jewish state. It's being said that this is the largest ballistic missile attack ever in world history.

Israel Is Not Starting A ‘Wider Regional War’… It’s Ending One

Each of these groups is funded and directed by the nation of Iran. Together, they encompass much of the region around Israel — east, west, north, and south. From Israel’s point of view, a wider war started long ago and has become intolerable over the last year. They are fighting back.

‘BDS’: An Antisemitic Movement To Avoid Anything With A Jewish Connection

There are many people throughout the world who, through their rabid antisemitism, claim that the world would be better off without the Jews.  Some extremists may even go so far as to avoid anything in their life which has a Jewish connection.

No Country Would Tolerate Non-Stop Attacks On Its Civilians… And Israel Is Determined To Put An End To It

We need to be praying for Israel. Hezbollah has over 150,000 rockets aimed at the Jewish State, and we've yet to see Hezbollah use the precision-guided weapons they claim they have. If they're truly capable of hitting anywhere in Israel, things could get ugly really quickly.

International Law Confirms Israel’s Legitimacy — From Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea

The legitimacy of Israel as a state is unsalable under international law. The Jewish people's right to a national Homeland in Palestine, stretching from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, has been recognized and upheld repeatedly. Those who deny this right are not only denying history but also denying the fundamental principles of international law.

UN Has Become A Propaganda Agent For Some Of The Worst Terror Groups In History

The UN apparently prefers for Israel to use missiles and massive, indiscriminate bombs. But in this case, Israel was able to make a pinpoint attack against terrorists, even though those fighters were hiding in civilian areas. Never in history was such an attack carried out with so little collateral damage. The UN should congratulate Israel and condemn Hezbollah’s continued terror bombings of civilian neighborhoods in Israel.

Samaritan’s Purse To Provide 28 More Armored Ambulances To Israel; Franklin Graham: ‘It Is An Honor To Stand With Them’

“Today we are in Israel to dedicate the two armored ambulances that have just arrived, as well as a new ambulance center near the Gaza border where there has not been one before,” said Graham. “The need is so great, we have just committed to providing 28 more armored ambulances."

It’s Not ‘Freedom’ That Hamas Is After… It’s The Eradication Of Jews

Since the start of the Israel-Hamas war, I’ve often heard it said, “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.” Freedom fighter has a positive tone. As Western-minded individuals, we believe in the tenets that uphold independence and freedom from tyranny. But what happens when the “freedom fighters” violently attack the country that has offered them freedom?

The Bloodlust Of Anti-Semitism: The Jews Have Faced Countless ‘October 7s’

Gabriel Senderowicz, president of the Jewish Community of Porto (also known as Oporto) in Portugal recently said: “To know the 1506 massacre in Lisbon is to know the 7 October 2023 massacre in Israel and the historic genocides of Jews all over Europe.  The only change has been in the weapons.” 

Amir Tsarfati: The Thrilling Mossad Operation That Just Plunged Hezbollah Into Chaos

The message was an error code that kept the device beeping and vibrating for ten seconds. Some lifted their pagers up so they could read the code before clearing it. Others just figured there was a problem and cleared the code while the device remained on their belts. As soon as they pressed the clear button, the devices exploded.

Canada Blocks $60M Arms Sale To Israel, Endorsing The Lie That Israel Is Guilty Of ‘Genocide’

Wake up, Canada! Israel is not committing genocide. They are doing everything humanly possible to avoid civilian casualties while they eliminate the demonic death cult of Hamas. And you know what? Israel is winning. They are winning this despite the heavy pressure around the world against them to let Hamas live to fight another day.

Reading Israel Out Of Biblical Prophecy: The Crafty Playbook Of Replacement Theology

Away with Israel! Anyone watching today’s news has likely heard these words. It’s the chief demand of the antisemitic protests around the world. Sadly, this sentiment has existed in certain Christian theological circles long before Israel’s current war with Hamas.

Boycotts, Turmoil, And Terrorism: The Hidden Cost of Israel’s War

All wars exact a heavy price.  Soldiers are killed.  Families are devastated.  Cities are destroyed.  Economies are ruined.  In direct economic cost, Israel’s war against Hamas is estimated to come out at $67 billion.  But there is a mounting hidden cost which is likely to plague Israeli society for some time to come.

November’s Election Will Determine Many Things… But Israel’s Existence Isn’t One of Them

For world leaders to be more sympathetic to the Palestinians only shows their ignorance. A prime example was the ridiculous statements by Walz and Harris. Trump, on the other hand, is standing 100% with Israel, putting the blame for the six murdered hostages and the situation in Gaza solely on Hamas.

Amir Tsarfati: Why Is The Media Accommodating Hamas’s Propaganda Strategy?

Hamas is committed to blaming Israel for every failed hostage negotiation. This is going according to plan. Despite Hamas rejecting every deal that doesn’t include a complete Israeli surrender, the media lays the responsibility at the feet of Netanyahu without fail. Just last week, the BBC was found to have breached journalistic rules 1500 times in the past months, pushing their agenda of anti-Israel propaganda in order to brainwash the people.

The Jewish Nation Lives: The Futility Of Attempts To Annihilate Israel

From Egypt’s Pharaoh to Persia’s Haman to Germany’s Hitler, many a world leader has attempted to destroy the Jewish people, defying God’s declaration that He will “curse him who curses” Israel (Gen. 12:3). Even today, motivated by a satanic hatred, many say, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more” (Ps. 83:4).

Netanyahu Is Not To Blame For The Carnage Of Hamas

Blame Hamas. Blame Hezbollah. Blame the Houthis. Blame Iran. Blame all the anti-semites. But stand with your Prime Minister, for goodness' sake! He's trying to prevent another October 7th from ever happening again.

Amir Tsarfati: As Long As He Is Prime Minister, Israel Will Not Back Down

This week, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave what I believe to be the most powerful speech of his political career. Two days earlier, six hostages had been executed by gunshots to the back of their heads because Hamas felt the IDF was getting too close to discovering them. It shocked the world and outraged the nation.

Details Emerge: Israel’s Response To Iran In April Destroyed Russian-Made Defense System

It is a big deal that the Russian Bear has now been introduced into this conversation. The s300 system is Russian-made and Russia-supplied. While it took forever for this to arrive in Iran, it speaks more largely to a prophetic, in all the wrong ways, alliance that we are seeing shaping up.

Amir Tsarfati: Unlike The Other Side, The Jewish State Is Not Making This A Racial War

They are the ones who make this racial. The protesters around the world also make this racial. We are not in a fight against the Arabs. But these terrorists and antisemites are in a fight against the Jewish people. That is the difference between them and us.

Jewish People Shouldn’t Be Coerced Into Rejecting The Jewish State

How about, as an American, being asked not to display the US flag or to refrain from supporting our troops who fight for our freedom? I know this sounds ludicrous. So, why is it that this kind of logic is being pushed on Jewish people and almost nobody seems to care?

God Commands The Nations To Bless Israel… And We Should Remember That On Election Day

When you vote on November 5, remember Israel. The covenant God made with Abraham and his descendants also commands the nations to bless Israel and the Jewish people (Gen. 12:3). God promises to bless those who bless them, and this divine promise should guide us as we cast our ballots.

Israel Is Not A Fluke, Its Modern Existence Is A Direct Fulfillment Of Bible Prophecy

Why do so many pastors and teachers tell us that Israel’s existence today has no significance for Bible prophecy? They see the same words in Scripture that we do but tell us they cannot refer to Israel.

‘Kill The Jews… Kill Israel’: Children Deserve Better Than An Education Driven By Antisemitic Ideologies

A BHS teacher encouraged students to take part in the walkout, sponsored by the Arab Resource and Organizing Center, by offering them excused absences. Middle school students also attended, encouraged by their teachers. Students shouted such slogans as, “Kill the Jews,” “[Expletive] the Jews,” “[Expletive] Israel,” “KKK,” “Kill Israel,” and “I hate those people.”

Amir Tsarfati: If God Had Not Intervened, This Could Have Been A Very Different Week For Israel

A clean-shaven, very normal looking man, Jaafar Mona from Nablus, walked along Lehi Road in Tel Aviv. On his back was a backpack that looked like any other backpack. What was inside, though, had the potential to kill dozens, if not more. While just ten minutes away from a crowded event at a stadium, the terrorist’s plot was thwarted when the explosive in his backpack prematurely blew up.

A Potential Harris Presidency Would Be The Most Anti-Israel Administration In US History

Harris and a potential Harris administration is signaling in advance that it will be the most anti-Israel US administration ever. Harris' nonstop criticism of Israel's self-defense is surely a shot over Israel's bow meant to alert the Islamists that she and her administration will be friendly toward the continued attempts to annihilate Israel.

God Has Made Bible Prophecy Plain To See Through The Nation Of Israel

Modern-day Israel is a miracle through which God is trying to get the attention of the world today. One of God's greatest signatures outside of creation that proves His existence is Bible prophecy, where the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob alone predicts the future with 100% accuracy.

Israeli Youth Banned From Tournament In Belgium; Police Chief Says, ‘This Is Your War, Not Mine’

Israeli youth who want to play competitive frisbee in a major Western European city—Belgium’s third-largest city—are being banned from participating and even watching a sporting event because they’re Jewish. A team coach said the Police Chief said to Israeli Kids, “This is your war, not mine.”

Tectonic Shifts: Did God Use An Earthquake In The Middle East To Thwart An Attack On Israel?

"Reports confirmed a 5.4-magnitude earthquake that struck Syria and Lebanon. This was not just any seismic event; it may have served as an unanticipated yet divine act that thwarted a grave threat against the Jewish nation. Many of the Hezbollah's underground tunnels, teeming with armaments, may have been reduced to rubble by an act of God."

Fmr Canadian Prime Minister: We Shouldn’t Have To Ask If Politicians Support Israel… We Should Expect It

"I think it is outrageous what too many Western governments are doing," Harper told the audience. "I think it is incumbent upon all of us to demand our leaders, in every level of government, display the correct moral leadership on an issue like [Israel]... If they don't show that leadership, we need to support other people who will do so."

Six Signs Antisemitism Has Reached Critical Mass

The 1930s and 1940s are here, and we know what's next! I have warned Christians that history will eventually repeat itself and here we are. The question is: "What side of history do we want to be on as it pertains to Israel and the Jews?" In fact, the more important question really is: "Do we want to be on God's side or not?"

Amir Tsarfati: Israel Is Not Going To Surrender Or Settle — Even If That Means Commencing Another War

It sounds surreal to say, but many of us in Israel are looking forward to another war. Actually, what we are really looking forward to is the peace that will finally come after the war. But to get to “after the war”, you’ve got to go through “the war.” Lord, if it’s going to come, please let it come now.

As Israel’s Enemies Take Aim, Will You Pray For God’s Chosen People?

While Bible prophecy assures us that Israel is on the winning side, an all-out war with Iran's proxies, whose greatest desire is to eradicate the Jewish people, could bring a heavy price for Israel with many civilian casualties. Therefore, let us commit to pray for Israel and the Jewish people that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob will foil the plans of Israel's enemies who are vowing to wipe out God's chosen people.

Islam Claims To Be The Enemy Of The Jews And Christians — Shouldn’t We Believe Them?

Unfortunately, few Christians in the West study the religion of Islam. Such study is crucial to understanding the larger Middle East conflict. There is a reason why many of the world’s most ruthless terrorist organizations are Islamic—and Hamas is no exception.

God’s Chosen Nation: The Common Hatred Held By Iran And Turkey

This movement has been growing for some time since Erdoğan took over as president of the country. Turkey, a member of NATO, has been moving more and more into the orbit of Iran and Russia and spewing hateful rhetoric against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Jewish state.

More Than Coincidence: The Tragic History Between Tisha B’Av And The Temple Mount

Tisha B’Av is recognized as one of the saddest days on the Hebrew calendar, as it commemorates the destruction of the first two temples in Jewish history, not to mention several other tragic events. Coincidence? Not likely.

The ‘Big Lie’ Of Hamas Propaganda And The Biblical Mandate To Advocate For Israel

“The PR techniques used by Hamas and its supporters are deliberately designed to subvert the truth. They use incitement and imagery that trigger a purely emotional response from their targets. This emotional reaction is virtually immune to reason. The Big Lie often works.”

Amir Tsarfati: The Jewish State Knows Who Its Friends Are… And So Does The God Of Israel

I don’t worry about Israel. God has us safely in His hand. He has mapped out our future and He will carry out His will. I am much more concerned with the United States, the United Kingdom, and the rest of Europe. I see them separating themselves from Israel, some countries faster than others. The Scriptures make it clear that God watches these relationships, and He acts accordingly.

Israel Sends Message In The Form Of A Sonic Boom Over Beirut, As US Pressure Emboldens Iran’s Axis Of Evil

Though under Biden they don't act as such, the United States remains the leader of the free world. When the United States is weak, it leaves a vacuum for the world's worst actors to fill. Weak men create hard times, and we're seeing this throughout the West. Iran is not frightened or nervous about the US—they're emboldened.

The Fuse Of The Gog-Magog War Is Beginning To Burn

Iran wants to attack Israel and invade Israel. They already have, and it's doing so through its proxy, Hezbollah, as we speak. Now, the President of Turkey is threatening to invade Israel. Russia, of course, is the other key player in all this; they are "Rosh" mentioned in Ezekiel chapter 38. It would take little convincing at this point for these nations to join together to form this coalition.

Amir Tsarfati: The Targeted Killing Of Terrorists — ‘Their Blood Is On Their Own Head’

Netanyahu also warned anyone with thoughts of taking revenge, saying, “We will settle our score with anyone who harms us. Everyone who takes aim at our children, everyone who murders our citizens, everyone who harms our country – their blood is on their own head.”

Israel’s Northern Front Is A Powder Keg Waiting To Blow Up At Any Moment

Since October 7th, Hezbollah has launched hundreds upon hundreds of rockets and drones into Israeli territory, provoking Israel into an all-out war. The world and the media seem to be turning a blind eye to what Hezbollah is doing.

Israel Strikes Lebanon’s Capitol, Killing Top Hezbollah Commander Responsible For Deadly Rocket Attack

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant released a statement saying, "Fuad Shukr 'Sayyid' Muhsan has the blood of many Israelis on his hands. Tonight, we have shown that the blood of our people has a price, and that there is no place out of reach for our forces to this end."

Gazans Are Subjected To Ruthless Antisemitic Brainwashing From Childhood… What’s Our Excuse?

The Palestinian people really are victims. Primarily, they are the victims of ruthless brain washing and mental conditioning. Part of their extreme ignorance is self-imposed, but much of it is forced on them by the regime they live under. Palestinians have been deluded by an evil, unrelenting process of mind manipulation. But what’s our excuse? Why do millions of Americans side with Hamas?

Full Speech: Netanyahu Addresses Congress — ‘If Israel’s Hands Are Tied, America Is Next’

"Defeating our brutal enemies requires both courage and clarity. Clarity begins by knowing the difference between good and evil... just as malicious lies were levelled for centuries at the Jewish people, malicious lies are now being levelled at the Jewish state."

Candace Owens’ Antisemitism Has Gone Off The Rails — And God Is Taking Note

For Candace Owens: When you go off on antisemitic rants, you are falling right into the hands of Satan, who rejoices in your efforts to paint all Jewish people with the same brush and demonize them for the world to see. God, true to His Word, will judge you for that one day.

Netanyahu Knows Israel Is Marginalized Under Biden, But Has No Choice Other Than To Say ‘Thank You’

"90% of us know that's almost laughable. But remember, America still gives Israel $3 billion dollars," Markell noted. "What are you going to say to the President of the country that gives that little nation $3 billion dollars? You're going to say, 'Thank you.'"

The Most Important Prophetic Sign Of All Has Bloomed Right Before Our Eyes

In the case of the most important prophetic sign of all, the evidence is right before our eyes. The withered tree that did not bear fruit when Jesus was here 2000 years ago has become tender and put forth new branches. We know that He is coming soon.

Amir Tsarfati: Iran Had Big Plans, But War With Israel Isn’t Going How They Intended

In a sense, World War 3 began on October 7. This fight that we are now in is different than those of the past. This is a religious, cultural, and, above all, a spiritual war. Iran is central to much that is happening. They had big plans with Hezbollah and Hamas, but that isn’t going how they intended.

The Hook: What Does Israel Have That The Gog-Magog Coalition Will Covet?

The Bible says these hordes come 'to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out [their] hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.' What does Israel have that these nations will want?

The Tangled Web Of Deceit: Why Muslim Terrorists Are Incapable Of Accepting Peace

Clearly, there can be no negotiations for peace with Palestinian leaders. There can be no two-state solution. There can only be a complete and total victory by Israel over the terror groups that have unanimously vowed to annihilate the nation of Israel. There simply is no room for political optics or posturing for Israel.

If The Lord Is A Zionist, Believers In God’s Word Ought To Be Also

As long as the sun, moon, and stars are shining in the sky, Israel will not cease from being a nation before Him forever. Again, I ask, what side of history do you want to be on? I trust you want to be on the side of history that lines up with God’s passions and God’s love. He has an everlasting love for Israel and the Jewish people.

Amir Tsarfati: Hold Your Ground — Standing With Israel’s Right To Exist And Defend Itself Is Biblical

Who you are identifying and standing with is far more important than who the mob is standing for! God has judged Israel for its sins. But God has, is, and will always judge the enemies of Israel for their hatred of His people! Don’t ever let the spiritual state of the people of Israel serve as an excuse to hate them and come against them! 

‘Christian Palestinianism’ And The Bondage Of Bad Theology

For the international church, where you fall on this war isn’t a choice between Jews and Palestinian Christians, as Christian Palestinianism claims.  This is a choice between Judeo-Christian values or Radical Islam. It's a choice between the true freedom found in the word of God rightly divided, or the bondage of bad theology. 

Iran’s New President Is Anything But ‘Moderate’… But The Western World Prefers The Illusion

They know Iran has nefarious, wicked, and demonic intentions to develop nuclear weapons to destroy Israel and destroy the West. Nonetheless, the illusion of "moderate" makes them feel better. It's much more pleasant to convince themselves that the threat of Iran has diminished with its new president.

Few Things Remind Us That There Is A Spiritual War Raging Like The Global Hatred Of Israel

With so much clear evidence that God is fulfilling His promises to Israel, why would anyone stand against them since God is clearly for them? The answer is where we started. It is spiritual and demonic. 

Even While Fighting An Existential War, Israel Remains The Safest Country For Jews

If it looks like a pogrom, sounds like a pogrom and hurts like a pogrom...It's a pogrom! I find it very ironic that–Israel– the country that is fighting an existential war on several fronts, currently is the safest place for Jews because their government has their backs, which is not the case for Jews anywhere else in the world.
