“Now also many nations have gathered against you,
Who say, “Let her be defiled,
And let our eye look upon Zion.”
But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD,
Nor do they understand His counsel;
For He will gather them like sheaves to the threshing floor.
“Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion;
For I will make your horn iron,
And I will make your hooves bronze;
You shall beat in pieces many peoples;
I will consecrate their gain to the LORD,
And their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.” (Micah 4:11-13)
“May God curse the European Union.”
This was my instinctive, furious response to the news that broke in Israel today, that Europe plans to call next week for the redivision of Jerusalem.
According to Ha’aretz: EU foreign ministers are expected to issue an official call next week for Jerusalem to be divided, in order to serve as the capitals of both Israel and a Palestinian state. The paper said it has obtained a draft document authored by the current holder of the rotating EU presidency, Sweden, and implying that the EU would recognize a unilateral Palestinian declaration of statehood.
December 1 saw EU member states celebrate – with fireworks, music festivals etc. – the official coming into force of the Lisbon Treaty.
The recently-ratified agreement – which will effectively turn the EU into the United States of Europe – is not yet fully in play, and already the Continent’s leaders are flexing their muscles and making it clear just which way things will go if they have their way.
As Spanish Prime Minister Luis Zapatero insisted in an interview with Der Spiegel on November 23 – when asked whether he “truly believe[d] that this new Europe can be a player in the same league as the United States and China:”
“But we are already playing in the top league.”
Europe has long vied with the America for a more influential role in the Middle East land-for-peace process. Tuesday saw it muscling its way right on in there.
It will start by putting its weight behind the Palestinian Arab effort to steal Jerusalem from the Jews; and it stands poised to recognize the Arab theft of Israel’s historical and biblical land.
In the draft statement obtained by the Israeli paper, the EU Council calls on “all parties to refrain from provocative actions,” even as it, with extreme prejudice, emphasizes that is has “never recognized the annexation of East Jerusalem,” and demands that Israel “cease all discriminatory treatment of Palestinians in East Jerusalem” and permit them to reopen their institutions in the city.
The EU, it continues, welcomed PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad’s recently floated proposal to unilaterally declare the establishment of “Palestine” and would “be able, at the appropriate time, to recognize” this state.
It’s been spelled out countless times before: The Palestinian Arabs have never had a state in any of this land, whereas the Jews’ claims to and history in all of it stretches back thousands of years.
Before being held at terrorism’s gunpoint and hijacked by states that hate Israel, many in the international community recognized that this land in its entirety – was rightfully the Jews’.
And when it comes to Jerusalem:
No other nation – least of all the non-nation called the Palestinians – has ever had this city as a capital. Jerusalem has never been the capital of any Arab state or of any Muslim state. It is not mentioned once in the Quran and exhaustive historical records show that the founder of Islam himself literally turned his back – and ordered his followers to turn their backs - on Jerusalem. Those parts of the city that suffered under Arab occupation did just that – suffered. When Arabs were in control Jerusalem was a run-down, dilapidated slum – its Jewish quarter vandalized and left to rot.
Since the reign of the Jewish King David, who established his throne in Jerusalem in around 1000 BC, Israel has considered this city the capital of the nation. Since their forced expulsion from Jerusalem 2000 years ago, every Jew who has ever prayed in accordance with his faith has daily petitioned the Almighty for the return of the Jewish people to the city and the return of the city to the Jewish people.
There is no contest here. The Bible and History concur: This land and this city belong to the Jews. The Arabs have no claim or right to either.
Those supporting this “Palestinian” piracy are accessories to the crime of land theft and worse, because they are aiding and abetting the Arabs in their genocidal goal, which remains the destruction of Israel.
They are calling the wrath of Heaven down on themselves:
And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. (Zechariah 2:3)
They are calling the wrath of Heaven down on themselves:
And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it. (Zechariah 2:3)
And, Stan, that time is coming swiftly. The LORD is not slow, He is simply not willing that ANY should perish!
Hi Stan, I read here http://euobserver.com/9/29081…I am praying for the Peace of Jerusalem…I am a Christian sister.
Bless you. Your words are true. Those individuals, indeed, those countries who seek to divide Israel, especially that part of Israel which is Jerusalem, come under God’s comdemnation and inherit his curse reserved for those who would divide Israel.. Christians, support Israel; help to keep the land which God has given Israel in Israeli hands, and in Israeli hands alone.
It is all coming together so quickly now…I am 56 years old and I never dreamed I would ever see the day when the US would turn their back on Israel.
When I was younger, I didn’t understand the prophecies. But now the Bible and the headlines are all meshing together so perfectly. I don’t know exactly how it will play out and on what timetable, but my God knows. And I am continuing to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Thank you for your blog. I am SO GLAD to have found it!
Yet we also know that the outer court and temple will not be under full Jewish control during the time of the end: (Rev. 11:1-2) Then there was given me a measuring rod like a staff; and someone said, “Get up and measure the temple of God and the altar, and those who worship in it. Leave out the court which is outside the temple and do not measure it, for it has been given to the nations; and they will tread under foot the holy city for forty-two months.
Doesn’t this passage give us the expectation that Jerusalem will come under full Jewish control only when the times of the Gentiles are at an end?
Do not be surprised if Europe offers half of the Temple Mount to Israel in exchange for half of Jerusalem and Peace.
This is the most insane story I’ve ever heard in all my life.
Sometimes I imagine trying to explain this story to a 10-year-old.:
“The enemies of Israel, who occupy vast land holdings all around her, are demanding to create a nation for themselves WITHIN the borders of tiny Israel, and all the world agress with them.” This wouldn’t make sense to a 10-year-old. How on earth does it make sense to the highly educated leaders of the world?
The very insanity of it clearly shows who is behind it, none other than Satan himself. He’s working full-speed-ahead because he knows his time is short.
Thankfully short.
And thankfully, we know the end of the story.
Thank you Stan. May Yahweh our God’s will be done in Jerusalem - come Lord Jesus Yeshua COME!
The LORD always remembers His Covenant to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. No weapon formed against Israel will ever prosper. For He who sits in the Heavens will laugh and crush Israel’s enemies with a rod of iron. Let the nations be ware. God’s word never returns to Him void. He keeps His promises. Let Israel REPENT and call upon the name of the LORD, He is coming to redeem His people Israel with His outstreched arm as He delivered them out of the land of Egypt centuries ago. ISRAEL REPENT!
Unreal…… My only thought is the imminent vengeance of the Lord upon the EU and the world. ~ “This is the day of the vengeance of our Lord!” It is surely time. / Do you think it a mere coincidence that they chose Dec. 7th, the day Pearl Harbor was bombed, to divide Jerusalem? ~ Lord God Almighty, turn all the world’s malicious plans back upon their own heads, and have mercy on Israel and upon her people, Zion!
“May God curse the European Union.”
HE WILL. It has already begun. For He is true to the words He has spoken…”I will bless those who bless you, and curse those who curse you”, O Israel.
Here is Pete’s version of your words quoted above: “Go ahead and punch!”
Literally sick as I read that story…I totally reacted the same way, Stan. Sending you a check this week… it’s not much, but I hope it demonstrates my love for Israel through you and your family. Stand strong. Be blessed as you defend God’s Beloved.
May Yahweh bless you as you open our eyes again to the things we have read in Holy Scripture and now see clearly the beginning of God’s plan for Israel. Yahweh will intervene at just the right time. He is never too early or too late. I rest in His promise “As the mountains are around Jerusalem”, so the Lord will defend and bring His people out triumphantly. Sarah - A Christian Zionist believer
We’re down to the wire…satan is pulling out all of the stops, but God Almighty created satan, so He will win, and satan is doomed to eternal hell prepared for him and the fallen angels. I earnestly pray that in the short time we have left that people will accept Jesus Christ as their savior and Lord. JESUS IS COMING SOON! Get ready, keep looking up and listening for the trumpet sound!
Hello Stan, I am from Canada and Spirit Filled and I decree that the lord riase up true warriors for the LAND of ISRAEL that will pour our riches toward her peace (which looking at the primitive root meaning WHOLENESS and SAFE and COMPLETE.) In Jesus Name!
On the evening before my beautiful husband passed away he talked into the early hours about the end times that I would live to see. Who would have thought that a young man of 30, strong and capable, a mountain climber, would be dead in my arms an hour later. He remarked also that I would live to see the return of Jesus. That was some 35 years ago. I believe that he was given a vision of the end times, and I can’t help but wonder if his death-bed words are coming to pass. All I can add to that is Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus come.
Thank you Stan for the wonderful work you do for the sake of Zion. You will be truly blessed for your help and support to the Jewish Nation. The Lord does not sleep and I know he is watchingh over you and your lovely family. Be blessed.
Mid said she was sending you a check this week, I think we should all send you an offering for being there in Jerusalem for us and letting us know exactly what to be praying about in these endtimes! A workmen is worthy of his hire. God placed you there for us at this time, so thank you, I want to to send you an offering also and mine can’t be much either, but little is alot if Gods in it!!. I love the fact that I can hear first hand what is going on right from Jerusalem and can also send a comment right into Jerusalem about it!.
Thank you again and again for making this possible!.

When a country falls away from the truth, they receive the curse of invasion.
De 28:45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:
46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
47 Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;
48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.
49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:
51 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.
52 And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:
Woe, woe to the nations that come against Yerushalayim. It is written: ” For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for his seat. This is my resting-place for all time; here I will dwell, for I desire it “. TEHILLIM / PSALMS 132:13,14. Amein.

Son of man, set your face against mount Seir and prophesy against it, . . .
[Ez. 35:2]
Because thou has had a perpetual hatred, and has shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword. . . [Ez. 353:5] Because thou has said, “These two nations and these two countries [Judea & Israel] [see Ez 37: 16-17] shall be mine, and we will possess it:” whereas the Lord was there: Therefore, “as I live,” says the Lord God, “I will even do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you has used out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them , when I have judged YOU. And you shall know that I am the Lord, and that I have heard all your blasphemies which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, “‘They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.’” “Thus with your mouth you have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I HAVE HEARD THEM.” Thus says the Lord God; “When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make you desolate. As you did rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto you: you shall be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even ALL of it: and they shall know that I am the Lord.” [look up Mt. Seir and Idumea for locations]
[Ez. 35: 10-15]
Because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, [EU, UN]; and are an infamy of the the people: [Ez. 36:3]
Therefore says the Lord God; “surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea which have appointed MY land into their possession with the joy of all their heart, with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey.” [Ez 36:5] Therefore this says the Lord God: “I have lifted up mine hand, surely the heathen that are about you, they shall bear THEIR shame.” [Ez. 36:7]
Fear not O land; be glad and rejoice for the Lord will do great things! [Joel 2:21]
“Forgive them. They know not what they do.”
For sure trouble is uporn EU
The words of an old prayer come to mind:
“Confound their politics
And foil their knavish tricks”
stan, may Adonai continually favor you with His Shalom as you stand as one of the watchmen Adonai has posted on the walls of Yerushalayim. we would like you to know that you are not alone and we stand with you.as Adonai says He has reserved people who haven’t bowed down to baal, who still recognizes Adonai’s voice amidst distractions…how we so desire to see EU and the other nations come to their senses with regards to Adonai’s ways…yes, Adonai is merciful and gracious but He, too, is a just Ruler…
God is behind this; not Satan. The LORD said that He would gather the nations as firewood and Israel would be the torch in the midst of it. He will take care of His people; Jews worldwide did not come to Israel to leave again. God has put a hook into the jaw of the nations. He is dragging them into His great battle. It is well underway. Pray that the eyes of ALL Israeli’s be opened and their ears unstopped so they can see and hear the good news and deliverance of Yeshua Messiah. Then they will know great deliverance and acknowledge that He alone is God.
Excellent proclamation Stan…. The Quartet ..EU/UN, America, Russia and all the world for that matter will soon ( prehaps 2010 ) be shocked and astonished when Isreal becomes GOD’s mighty war machine that desimates all the Arab-Islamic enemies that closely surround her wishing to wipe the memory of Isreal away forever. They will all be at witts end when Isreal expands her territory to become a larger and greater Isreal not a smaller diminished Isreal as they had planned. Pslam 83, Isaiah 17.
Then God will personally deal with the Iran, Russia, Turkey and many other surrounding nations dragging them into judgement …bringing them to their knees Ezekiel 38 -39 thus reveling this mighty hand and start to take away the blindless from the eyes of Isreal and soften their hearts.
Finally God will send the whole earth into a great and terrible day of chastisment. Those in Christ and washed in his blood will be very safe in the Ark with the ‘ Lamb that was slain for the sins of the world ‘.
Then as was in the days of Noah sudden clamity will come… woe to the inhabitants of the earth…you will now have Satan your King cast down on you to add to your torments until such time as all Gods enemies are trodden underfoot and he retuns to REIGNS SUPREME in all the earth from the TEMPLE MOUNT ISREAL
And war will be no more, the lion will lay down with the lamb and Isreal will bess all the nations.
May thy will be done in earth as is in heaven.
It is wonderful that we can trust in Jesus and not worry about all the bad nations that are turning against Israel. Jesus says “You MUST be born again”.
God hasn’t forgotten Israel, and His Covenant to Abraham is still enforcing. Who could make Israel to born anew in 1948 after 2000 year diaspora? Who could make Israel to win and survive despite massive arab enemies encircled and invaded them in the past wars? These are miracles proving Israel is safe from now till ever for His everlasting love.
