Most my readers know that from my post on the walls of Jerusalem, here to identify and expose dangers and threats to this special city, and of course to the land and people to whom it belongs, my gaze is often directed westwards to the United States of America - the world’s only current superpower and the nation that wields the most influence over what happens here in the Middle East.
While some Americans may find my observations and commentaries irritating if not downright infuriating, the reason I watch America so closely is because I really care about that great land, and because of my Bible-based belief that she has been positioned in power at this time in history to be able to champion and serve God’s Chosen People.
I believe that America has, on a number of notable occasions over the past century, truly lived up to this calling. It is also excruciatingly clear to me that massive forces are at work to derail that country from its destiny and align it, with virtually the entire world, against Israel.
In this light, (as in a number of others) the 2008 elections are truly, in the words of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, the most critical in the history of the United States….so far.
Well, I didn’t get to see Republican Vice President Nominee Sarah Palin give her acceptance speech live in St Paul, MN, on Wednesday night. It was the wee hours here in Jerusalem and I was sound asleep.
This morning, Israel time, however, while most of America was catching up on its shuteye, it was my turn to watch, listen to, and repeatedly applaud as this beautifully poised woman wielded her sharp mind from behind clear and smiling eyes, sprinkling “the most important speech of her life” with lashings of humor and slices of wit that powerfully introduced the hitherto “unknown” and dealt what Republicans hope will culminate in a death blow to her Democrat opponents.
Palin’s an unknown no more. And along with millions of other re-invigorated and excited people, I am thanking the Lord for her.
Some of you know this, but for those who don’t: When, on June 4, I heard Barack Hussein Obama address the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in his first speech after Hillary Clinton dropped out of the race, it felt like a block of ice dropped into my spirit; a deathknell sounded in my mind: He will be the next president of the United States.
This is what I wrote then:
“Well, I just listened to Obama - and I did not get sick, I got scared. Based on what I heard I would vote for him. He has an extra-ordinarily gilded tongue and a powerful, clear message. He was MUCH stronger than McCain on every level - and he will get the US Jews’ vote and Israel’s Jews will root for him. He will win the White House, and I fear he will bring a peace agreement into existence between Israel and the Arabs that will drag the US into the darkness of the valley of judgment. All of us who oppose him will be seen to be bigots, enemies of peace, enemies of America. This man, with Hillary at his right hand, is a leader whose time may have come. If so, God help America.â€
From that day to this, up until last night when Fred Thompson took the stage and so evocatively and compassionately spoke to who John McCain really is, I have carried that thought uncomfortably around inside me.
Thompson successfully dislodged it - leaving it orbiting around my head, still a looming danger, but no longer a dead cert.
With her home run last night, Palin hit the fear all the way out of the ballpark.
Fate has not, and will not, determine who will be the next president and vice-president of the United States.
With their eyes wide open, the American people will make their choice, and will live with it.
As I see it, God, in His mercy, is making the distinction between the right choice and the wrong one absolutely clear.
Now, the position John McCain and Sarah Palin will ultimately take on Israel and what they will do about the unrighteous and discredited “two state solution” has yet to solidify and be tested. What is needed is a whole new US policy on Israel. (If you follow this link you can add your name to a petition to McCain concerning this vital matter. http://support.tjci.org/site/PageServer?pagename=November_Summit&JServSessionIdr009=bw8612ks82.app14b)
Meanwhile, on a whole host of the other hot-button issues that disclose just how much regard individuals have for the Word of God and His laws, the Republican nominees unequivocally hold the high ground.
Shockingly, a scary number of Christians have reportedly chosen to vote for the Obama-Biden team. That is to say, people claiming to follow the teachings of Jesus and the ordinances laid down in the Bible by the Almighty have been seduced to the point where they are willing to support for president a man or men whose lives pursue and would-be policies will promote brazenly ungodly behavior.
Where, one wonders, is their fear of God?
As I see it, the Lord has set before the American people two doors. The one will bring the country closer to the blessings and favor that He desires to pour out upon this special nation. Choosing the other will move the country closer to the gross darkness that is already swallowing so many other gentile lands - including my old homeland, South Africa.
For the people of America - and specifically for the Christians in America, the outcome, and their future, is in their own hands.
How I pray they will make the right choice.
I am a registered democrat but have voted both ways. When i first heard of barack obama and heard him he frightened me. I have had an uneasy feeling about him for a long time.the first thing that came to my mind is does he belong to a sleeper cell. I grew up being an evangelical and i do not believe he is one. I think he is conceited and is in the presidential race for the power and to further his career and who know what else.
We don’t need you - a foreigner and a man you has no home of his own - to preach to us about domestic issues and politics. You have the whole idea of Israel wrong as it is and so this gives further proof that your judgement against us means nothing. Get a real job and stop milking the unsuspecting.
What truly frightens me about the situation here in America is that naggin question in the back of my mind; What if this is one of those times when Satan appears as an angel of light. Or maybe more to the point; what if there is no right choice. What if no matter what we do or who we have holding the reins, the horse is out of control? Our best course is to plead with God to forgive us, to turn from our wickedness to take back our country from the godless and to reinstate the GOD of our fathers. Otherwise I see America disappearing in a cloud of radioactive dust.
With interest have I been following your posts, but never posted any comment; however, you are right on with your assessment. We are at crossroads and this Nation is in jeopardy. Our next leadership will either return some of what had been lost or hasten our demise. We have an the opportunity to turn the tide and lead by example once again. History has shown repeatably what happens to a people who loose sight of the One Most High.
Stan-
Thanks for the post. I enjoyed it very much. Although I am still uneasy about Sen. McCain, I am absolutely thrilled with Sarah Palin. The Obama/Biden ticket to me is not an option. But I’m still not sure about voting for McCain. If I do it will be a vote for Sarah Palin.
Hi, I can only say to those who doubt what happens to a nation when it abandons God for a secular society to look at the UK. We were a world power with firm roots in the Lord until we sold out Israel to placate the Arabs. When that happened I believe God withdrew His blessing from us and this nation fell very far indeed. If Britain continues to try a two nation settlement in Israel we bring destruction on our heads. Many of us stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel and her people, the children of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, sadly our government does not! Pay heed, America still has the chance to do right before the Most High, if she does not America will bring down the covenant curse on her head. There will always be ‘nay sayers’ Stan, you keep on posting us from you place on Jerusalem’s walls, and may God mightily bless you for your diligence.
Linda
I truly believe that there are troops of radical left wing groups jumping around the internet looking to make comments like ‘All Fulfilled’ has right here. There is a hatred and anger to them and you can see them making comments about anything that is discussing God, Israel or US politics. They spew attacks with such frequency and vigor, it almost fells evil in my mind.
Palin was an amazing choice and she seems to be a strong support of Israel. I will never understand why jewish people vote for democrats. It’s the republican Christians (this is where Palin lines up) that support and would defend Israel. Democrats simply use the Jewish people and could care less about them.
You do a great job Stan, keep it up. Don’t let the evil that is working overtime in the world (and America) to sway your message!
Your site has been a comfort to me this morning. Yesterday I was oppressed by the hatred I was witnessing as I viewed the video out of the Netherlands concerning the Muslims plans for Jews, for us Americans, and for any other people not of the Muslim persuasion, as well as the venom being spewed by the media concerning our Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin. God kept directing me to Phillipians 4:8 “…Whatsoever is true..noble..just..pure..lovely..of good report….if there is any virtue..anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things”. It reassured me that God was saying ,” I know, I know…” and that there were God-lit truths to lean on. It is God’s mercy that He has answered our prayers for our nation and raised up a champion. She has expressed the mindset of a true American and spoken of the beliefs and values our country has been founded on: justice, equity, truth, and government for the people. John McCain’s choosing of Sarah Palin reminds me of the passage in Judges 4 where the wise judge Deborah agreed to go out against Israel’s enemies with the deliverer God had raised up and enabled. He said to her, “If you will,go with me, I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go!” So she said, ” I will surely go with you…”. Sarah appears to be a strengthener to McCain as Deborah was to Barak (unfortunate name, but honored in Hebrews). I was just noticing the next line as I typed this out , which gives me pause and food for thought: “nevertheless there will be no glory for you in the journey you are taking, for the Lord will sell Sisera (the enemy) into the hand of a woman.” Thank you for your message today, which has highlighted our God-given purpose and duty toward Israel.
Dear Stan
How right you are as to America having to make the choice between good and evil!!!!!! I have shared before as to what Our Lord Jesus Christ told me after the Iowa voting. Now today I feel our Lord Jesus Christ want’s me to share it again.
As I was sitting the next morning reading my devotion’s for that day the Lord Jesus said shut up the Book and listen to Me. I said ok Lord what is it you want me to see. The Lord begin to speak to me saying you see what happend last night America has on the one side chosen a man in huckabbe who love’s My Son Jesus Christ & on the other side a man who shun’s Me & My Son for a false religon of i or me or we are our own god we dont need any other god, we decide which baby live’s & which one die’s, we decide wether we will acept homosexilty,we don’t need a god to tell us right from wrong that is the world that he is trying to promote.
The Lord Jesus Christ said that morning that if America choose’s wrong this time that all hell is going to be loused upon America. But if they choose right that we will have for more year’s to win more Soul’s for the Kindgom Of Our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ………. It has also been hard for me since that day to watch as the election’s played out i kept going to the Lord & asking Him what choice are You giving us nither one seem’s worthy of our vote’s. He kept saying watch & see so we all waited to see who would be called on to serve as his running mate. The choice has been made & my friend’s the Lord has truly Spoken America now has a choice between Good John & Sarah who Love’s the Lord Jesus Christ & Eviel Barak & Biden and a side who they decide what is right & what is wrong wether God should be allowed in this nation or not one thing i do know there are 40,000.000 less vote’s because of us saying in america we are our own god.
It is time right now people of America to Stand beside & with Our Lord Jesus Christ and His Word and Start Calling SIN SIN…………………….
IF the Word Of God Say’s it we had better Believe it & that Settle’s it……… And the writer all fulfilled need’s to be filled with the Holy Spirit to truly know what it mean’s to have life to the fullest & Feel the Love of Our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ who changes not, & not alla, budda, or any other god of this world…………. There is only one God & His Name Is The Lord Jesus Christ & she isnt afraid to call on Him He Is Alway’s Faithful & as 2 Corinthian’s 2:14 say’s We are alway’s VICTORIOUS WITH JESUS CHRIST AS OUR HEAD………………..May the Lord Jesus Christ Bless & Keep You-All…Praying for the Peace Of JerUSAlem

Hey Stan:
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1018326.html
The Father of Light - in WHOM there is not the slightest shadow, regardless of the environment - Loves HIS People, calling them after HIS OWN NAME, and hears our prayers and answers us….according to HIS OWN Purpose.
Indeed, HE even raises up and strengthens adversaries only to destroy them before they’re humiliated - while they appear to succeed on every hand. But, some of them will experience HIS PRESENCE, opening their eyes and delivering them from the power of darkness.
Palin is no Candi-Coated Condi - and McCain is not George Bush.
Politically speaking, the rhetoric they espouse SEEMS positive and truthful - unlike Brave Drama and Joe Mama, who switch positions and arguments more often than Olmert and Abbas accessing secret bank accounts.
Yet, GOD’s Strategy is consistent and beneficial to all who love HIM and are called by HIM for HIS OWN Purpose. TRUTH is what HE loves and demands. Politicians are not necessarily statesmen and far too often conveniently give answers like Pilate - ‘What is Truth?’ - depending on who their listeners are….at the time.
But, although politics and politicians may play a hand in thwarting the Purposes of GOD, HE WHO Rules the universe is neither motivated nor mocked by them.
They, and we, accomplish HIS Will - albeit, incurring HIS Displeasure along the way - and their DAY is Coming.
When the righteous are in authority, the peoples rejoice; when the wicked rule, oppression is on every hand, and peace flees far.
Brave Drama - Barama - and his ilk currently occupy many of America’s courtrooms, media outlets, classrooms and public office. It is unlikely that the changes McCain promises will reverberate throughout the land, but if NObama’s camp had their way - what Candi-Coated Condi has attempted with Israel thru the puppet Olmert…
Israelis would turn over national security to the PLO, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc - cause the dude is almost as much a racist as Jimmy Carter.
Stan - another great commentary! Yes, Sarah Palin is a breath of fresh air. What an encouraging surprise from the Lord! You just never know what He is going to do next! How the Amercian people choose to vote, is something we will all be watching and praying for. May America vote for truth and righteousnes!
(Canada could use some prayers just now too, as PM Stephen Harper is about to call an election. May the Lord continue to remember mercy for the people of Canada and bring Stephen Harper back into power, but this time with a majority government. This is my prayer.)
Is it just me, or does anyone else see an interesting play on words included in the words, the “Obama-Biden” team?? Every time I see those two names together, my eyes play tricks on me and initially I read “Osama bin Laden” - O[b]ama bi[nla]den! It’s kinda freaky when that happens to me. I always need to do a double take before I realize that what I’m really reading is - Obama-Biden - or am I??
Stan, your comments are powerful and absolutely correct! Thank You for speaking your heart…a heart filled with wisdom.
When Senator John McCain finished his speech last night, America and the entire world knew, deep down inside, that McCain Palin are America’s ONLY HOPE.
Governor Sarah Palin is a type of Esther……any person with an ounce of spiritual discernment, can see this as the “handwriting on the wall.” She was born for this time, and her place in history—not just American History—but to touch the world…..
As the nations of the world look on, eagerly and anxiously, waiting to see what will happen in and to America….God has “supernaturally positioned” Mrs. Todd Palin (and I know Todd Palin is so grateful to God for bringing them together). We Must remember that much of Sarah’s strength and abilities are a part of who she is as the wife of Todd Palin and their life’s experiences as a TEAM.)
To cast one’s eyes on Todd Palin, is to see a loving husband and father, who is not loud or “showy.” To observe Todd, is to see REAL strength….the kind the world needs so desperately to see—-but so seldom does.
The Only Real Choice for America is: MCCAIN-PALIN
This One family embodies the heart and soul of the best of marriage and the family unit. There are NO perfect people—we all know this…..we know our own humanness……and yet, Todd and Sarah Palin have been RAISED UP so that both Americans and all who will glance (with an observant eye) will see that the Most High God is still on the Throne—and IS IN CONTROL!
God is giving America her Last Call: LIBERTY or DEATH
The “naysayers” will bring out the “big guns” in an attempt to discredit McCain and Palin…..and their Families……GOD will judge the “naysayers!”
As Stan has said: “God, in His mercy, is making the choice CLEAR—-it is McCain-Palin—-OR the death of America……..
.
Stan:
I wish it were as easy as picking a presidential candidate! McCain, not Palin, is the candidate. He has already, (and repeatedly) said he will continue on the path to peace of a two-state solution for Israel.
I remember when, during the 2004 election, I could see Bush being dangerous for Israel, when most of my friends where saying he was a friend. Kerry would not have been a friend either.
It is a time when we need to get our eyes off mankind and fixed on the Lord G-d in all things. This is an area I know I struggle with. Yet, it IS the Lord who places kings (or presidents) and He who pulls them out of leadership, just as the Prophet Daniel shared.
No matter who wins this election, America will know upheaval and division and unrest and worse. The Lord is our peace. He is our provider. He is G-d.
We ask G-d to give us wisdom and discernment in how to vote. The rest we must leave in His hands.
In every election, I vote one issue. Abortion. Obama and the democrats do not fear God and continue to sacrifice children to the God of Molech:greed, power and pride. The next president will appoint three new Supreme Court justices. Because the courts have hijacked the making of laws from the legislative branch/the vote of the people/the right to be represented in government, the Supreme court will make abortion remain or be illegal. With the incredible increase of contraceptives, morning after pill, etc., the whole thing abortion procedure is barbaric for the 21st century. Use contraceptives. Abortion is not an acceptable for of birth control as it denies the rights of the baby and the father of the child. There is nothing more selfish than abortion. Lord help us in Your mercy!
It is interesting that a lady from an isolated state is chosen as a Vice Presidential running mate on the Republican ticket. America is thirsty for the oil from Alaska; our OWN OIL. How we have become addicted to this stuff is demonic on the one hand and was allowed by God. This addiction ties us to the Islamic states of the Mideast and their friends in South America. I am reminded of the passage of Scripture where God says I set before you life and death; chose life. Although neither party is zealous for the things of God, I feel that between the two McCain is the one to chose. I disagree with his premise to allow gay rights, for an example, up to each state. This is compromise and it will not do. Palin is pro life; just look at her family! Perhaps, this is our one last chance at trying and grasping at the opportunity to return to America even a small measure of what a nation is supposed to be in Godliness. I have strong doubts in that regard; I feel it is much too late. The horses of the Book of Revelation have already prepared themselves for their mission, but as one person who commented here, maybe this will by us a few more years until the last of the Gentiles have come in. Then, His glorious Kingdom will start to be established upon the earth; with much turmoil as all things are made new. This is a process; sometimes long, sometimes in a twinkling of an eye things change forever. The game has changed dramatically since Israel came into the picture as a nation. She is the lynchpin for all that follows. Pray that McCain and Palin have Jewish hearts and compassion for His people and are successful in resisting all who have arisen up against His people.
Thirty,forty, fifty years ago few would have been talking about God, the Temple, Jerusalem as having some potential affect on the planet. Just a place talked about in the Bible. A place where a lot of mistreated Jews went to recover. Some scholarly Jews and Muslims might have been making some grumbling noises since the 40’s, 50’s. Some of them knew the past, the geneologies creating inheritance, rights to the land.
We are about to see a hand off to a generation unlike any in recent history. Highly educated in and about the world, self aware and driven by internal desires, unashamed in every way with a belief in the goodness of man and his ability to create a bright future.
The question has been asked many times, ” knowing all this to be true, who can save us, how can we be saved, what hope is there ? ” Most on this board know the answer. The enemy becomes bolder every day as more and more people believe all things Biblical to be myth and fantasy. We who believe are simple minded, uneducated, hopeless and helpless fanatics.
It has taken G-d no small amount of time to cleanse jerusalem of its foreign gods. There is a new generation in Israel as well ,and they look to G-d for their future. They have never heard the names worshipped that caused the land to become desolate and the Temple to be destoyed. There is no 4th Temple. The next one will be the real and final deal.
Until the wiles and works of man have been fully exhausted and there is absolutely no human solution, the maker of heaven and earth will come with that last answer to all questions. Only a desire by G-d to recover more sheep can forstall the enevitable conflict of many of the mightiest wills in the universe.
Having been educated in the 20th century I know exactly what happens when something comes in contact with an immovable object. All wills will become subject to the one will. ALL KNEES WILL BOW
The Republicans as a party appeal to those who identify with the founding people of the nation back in 1776 as well as a predominately Christian heritage and world view. The Democrats appeal to the newest immigrants and those who do not identify with 1776 as well as having those having a predominately non Christian world view and more diverse heritage.
The diverse world view of the Democrats is simply not Christian and they will draw the US into a politics to match the worlds politics which desires to see the two state solution This may seem right in the world’s eyes but Biblically the land will be had by the Jews because in war or peace God has decreed it. Jerusalem is a cup of trembling and all those who concern themselves with it to do mischief to God’s plans for it will be injured. That is the risk to the US and then the world. I think you are correct the choice is stark and important.
Jan & Marsha
Keep-on Keeping-on Amen & Amen
God Bless
Don
Can’t believe why some of you seem to have hope in the republican ticket. Well Obama Biden may be worse but why believe in people that most certainly will continue the evil work of GB. Many Christians believed Bush was a blessing from God and that America was on the right track again.
Israel should not look to America for help but she should look upward
America-your future is up to………the Almighty God. “The King’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whitersoever he will.”Proverbs 21:1. Our citizenship is in heaven, not on earth. Yes, I will vote , but it will be the the way I Choose, not by the prodding of anyone else. And, I will accept God’s will in this election, as his plan being put forward for his purposes. After all, as the old song says, “He’s got the whole world in His hands.”
Be at peace, G-d is going to place John MaCain in the White House. Pray that John MaCain and Sarah Palin are strengthened and protected over the next two months in particular. Their battle albiet a victory to the oval office needs our spiritual support/prayers. G-d is good and he does nothing without first telling his prophets. He’s so worthy of our constant adoration.
Christians better wake up and smell the Islamic coffee!! Verily verily (what Jesus would say wanting to get a person attention). Obama is a precursor to seeing how the anti-christ will come in and take over. If you are a Christian, and you want to vote for Obama, you better do some deep soul searching and get on your face before God and seek His wisdom before you cast your vote…….you will be held accountable by God for how you voted.
Israel……the epicenter of God’s rule on the Earth. You better care about what happens to Israel and seeing her enemies stacking up against her. For those who see Israel as “a problem,” an “issue,” as the persecutor of the “poor Palestinians,” you better start looking in God’s word to find out what He says about His precious jewel Israel. Mess with Israel and you’re messing with God…….not my opinion, not my facts, seek the Word and see what is says.
Micael,
Because hope is a gift from God. That’s why. A month ago the GOP ticket was one secular guy. Now it includes a professing Christian that has a israeli flag on her office window. Maybe ‘hopeful’ Christians got burnt by GW but that doesn’t mean we should stop hoping for someone that aligns with our beliefs.
I don’t want to live in a world without hope so I am making the best of the situation, trusting God to put the right people in the right places. He has used America for 200 years, why are you being so pessimistic about that use now?
Kevin
If Palin turns out to be a true supporter of Israel I will have no problem standing corrected. If she starts talking against GBs two state solution I would believe her but the truth probably is that the Party and the state department will wear her down.
I the end all nations will come against Israel, most are against her already
Stan I agree with you 100% “America your future is up to you” and Samuels comments puts the icing on the cake, “Christians better wake up ….Israel is the epicenter of God’s rule on the Earth. You better care about what happens to Israel and seeing her enemies stacking up against her. For those who see Israel as “a problem,†an “issue,†as the persecutor of the “poor Palestinians,†you better start looking in God’s word to find out what He says about His precious jewel Israel. Mess with Israel and you’re messing with God…….not my opinion, not my facts, seek the Word and see what is says. ”
Even so come Quickly Lord Jesus,Rev 22:20
Hi Micael, this is the other Kevin (from IMB and TWTZ). I also believe Israel needs to look up to the God of Israel rather than the world, but am praying for my leaders like the Bible says. Most believers including me are rooting for McCain/Palin but we should only trust Jesus (Isaiah 9:6-7). Love, Kevin
Good to hear from you, Lousiania Kevin. I was thinking about you when Gustav past. You dont live where you used to?
You can only judge them on what is Biblical. Do not think that McCain or Palin are somehow more Christian than Obama and Biden. Go look at what they follow and make the judgement on their actions. Not their words. Their actions. Remember, those who claim to be our friends aren’t always our friends.
One area of concern though. You mention “that is already swallowing so many other gentile lands - including my old homeland, South Africa.” Do you think that Apartheid South Africa was somehow closer to God? Murdering people? Stealing from people? No my friend, they were the Nazi’s of Africa. Yes, the current government is by no stretch of the imagination a Christian-driven lot. But that would be like saying Germany today is worse than Germany in WWII. Evil and incompetency/corruption are two very different things. Do not see the past as the “good old days”. There were no good old days in Apartheid. Do not romanticise the abuse of God that happened in Apartheid. They killed in His name. They were more the anti-Christ than anything else. They were not Biblical. They only used God’s Word as tools for their own evil deeds.
Hi again Micael, Wife and I moved to Terrebone Parish where Gustav hit. We didn’t lose our house like Katrina, but still have no electricity possibly till Oct. Love, Kevin still standing with Israel using a generator
ps. check out the pics on Israel Insiders new site, where Stan is also a member. It’s a good place to visit other lovers of Israel:

Shalom Stan,
You are correct. I had the same sinking feeling . Many self professed Christians are deceived both in their replacement theology and in their believing that Obama is a committed Christian . Jesus said “ye shall know them by their fruit “. Obama has consistently voted for abortion. This is not Christian fruit . Obama like Bill Clinton say they are Christians but their lives (fruit) do not reflect it. Born again, spirit filled Christians can see through Obama’s rhetoric and untruths . Consider this , Obama went to a church for 20 plus years where anti white racial hatred was preached from the pulpit, yet claims he did not know about or hold to any of those beliefs. Was not Lot vexed by the filthy conversation of the wicked living among the Sodomites? Sarah Palin has indeed brought a breath of fresh air to the republican ticket . She is more qualified in character and righteousness than any of the other 3 Presidential and VP contenders . Honesty and being upright before God is the most desirable quality in any leader. Palin’s fruit is the right fruit .
Shalom , Jeremy
As Hurricane Faye swished across Florida an (as far as I know) unprecedented FOUR times, dropping water everywhere, G. Bush sent Condoleeza Rice to do more damage to Israel. More storms began forming ! And the Lord God of Israel told me, “send a message to the President.” Not knowing how — except that it was too late to mail it — I e-mailed: “God, the God of Israel, to the President of the United Staes: if you divide My Land, I wil divide yours. If you divide My home, My city, I will divide yours: and the place where your daughter was married, will become an indication of what is happening to My People Israel.”
Sabbath came & went…on Monday the L-rd again spoke to me: “the ends have been selected, the middle will be formed. In the south, it will be the West Bank of New Orleans, where the levees are not yet rebult; and in the north, the West Bank of the Mississippi, where the bridge is not yet rebuilt. ”
Stan, you’re right: the Lord sets before us good & evil, right & wrong, life& death; and He begs us (HE, the Creator, begs US !) — He implores us to choose life. The USA’s future is in her own hands… I worked very , very hard in ‘04 & ‘06, trying to elect Republicans, because of their pro-life stand. This election I am standing aside, because I’m so discouraged by the churchgoers, the [so-called] “people of God”.. they sit at home, or vote with their emotions, but they don’t take seriously their office as priests to this nation.
Brothers & sisters, please pray that the children of the living God, the G-d of Israel, will wake up & repent and go choose a good choice to govern our land., so that the God of Israel can have compassion on our land. Indeed, the Lord fights for Israel !
Dear Stan, i read your artical for the first time. what you wrote really bothered me for the reason being that i believe that you spoke the direct truth about the future of america. Thank you so much for loving this land, As we(i love Isreal also) love and support Isreal. When i first saw Barak Obama, i felt this horrible pit in my stomach, and i still feel it. God bless you for standing for us in truth. I will pray everyday and stand to the East where you are in Jerusalem and pray for Isreal. God help us in this present hour. God have mercy on this nation, let’s all do the right thing and vote for Mccain and Palin.Isreal we stand at your side.Shalom–Judith
With the resignation of PM Olmert and B. Netanyahu evidently deciding not to throw in with Tzivni, the imbalance of the Israel government may provoke an early response from the powers that seek to diminish and overthrow Israel. Iranian president Ahmadinejad has been given podium time and bought dinner in New York in a way that would have made A. Hitler jealous, continues to promote his agenda (read plan of ayatollah Khomeini) for the debasing of ‘imperialist’ America, all the while the Russian head of the CIS is playing out his version of the Cuban missile crisis, only a land base is not necessary for a command to ‘Pyotr’ the Great to spark some nukes at the American underbelly.
Maybe the Iranian president is right, that America is at the end of the road (hopefully that means the ‘Road Map to Peace’), which would mean that Israel’s turn to be alone in the spotlight is at hand. Then the world will be in for a surpirise to find out that Yeshua HaMashiach was not speaking metaphorically when mentioning the ripeness of the fig tree.
Biblical fulfillment is truly falling into place, so much so that it calls to mind the American TV phrase, ‘I love it when a plan comes together’. Revelation is ready to go. Is anyone else ready to see Yeshua HaMashiach?
Thanks for your faithful prayers for this nation. I shared your excitement about Sarah Palin and was hopeful that God had raised her up for such a time as this. However, after having watched all of the attacks on her Christian faith, I have a feeling that the tide has turned and God is bringing judgment to America and laying another brick in the path toward the end times. I’ve just recently read Epicenter by Joel Rosenberg, and I wonder if Obama is being set in place to unfortunately fulfill the prophecy that America will stand idle while Russia and Iran attack Israel. The one encouraging thing about that occuring is that God will supernaturally protect Israel and make His name great across the world - especially among the Jews and also the Muslim nations. I find myself growing weary from all of the blatant attacks and mocking of God in America, but I am encouraged as I remember that it is God who establishes leaders. I trust Him to bring about His perfect will in the earth - even when it doesn’t seem to match what I think is best. God bless you for your faithful stand!
