Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, today is a significant day in history and foretold in scripture in the Old Testament. This peace deal is one of the major markers required before Jesus\u2019s return and we have now hit this major milestone. A significant time and event prophesied in the Bible, in the end times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We celebrate with Israel and the United States in achieving peace in the middle east, especially for Israel and the Jewish people in that region. As you well know many lives were lost on both sides and we all grieved for those who died, notably the innocent in this horrific war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully we will see lasting peace for Israel and in that region, as the people find their footing and establish their homes and remaining families in some semblance of civilisation. Please pray for them all as both sides struggle to re-establish themselves again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What an awesome day it was to see the Israeli hostages released back into the arms of their families and loved ones. No doubt we will see celebrations and absolute joy as these are reunited in love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not to put a damper on this momentous occasion during this time of celebrating the reconciliation and peace, but we must also keep our eyes wide open to what scripture warns us about this time of celebration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happens next, we need to watch and see the remaining scripture in 1 Thessalonians 5:4, Paul writes, where everyone celebrates “Peace and Safety<\/em>“, as this invites \u201cSudden Destruction\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We brothers and sisters, are not deceived but ever watchful as Watchmen, as another major sign of scripture is completed on God\u2019s heavenly countdown clock and calendar. This scripture gives us a sobering warning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Thessalonians 5:4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Day of the Lord<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For when they say, \u201cPeace and safety!\u201d then sudden destruction comes upon them,<\/strong> as labour pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please continue to pray for Israel and Jerusalem, as this is just the beginning of all out war in that region, the peace and safety will be short lived and may bring a false sense of relief and unexpected devastation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scripture is always proven right, and God forewarns us that this is not the time for letting our guard down but quite the opposite, to be vigilant and be ready. We still have to see the Ezekiel 38 and 39 war, as Israel’s enemies will surround her in an effort to destroy her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read Ezekiel 38 and 39 here by clicking on these links below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezekiel 38 NKJV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezekiel 39 NKJV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We watch closely as we know the truth, only our Lord God Almighty can bring everlasting peace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust in the Lord God with all your understanding, leaning on Him always know He will deliver us from the snare of the fowler and deadly pestilance and that no harm will come near your home – paraphrasing parts of Psalm 91<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your brother in Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
