Biden Warns Israel

The ominous headline appears in today's Wall Street Journal;
Biden Warns Israel on Jerusalem Construction

RAMALLAH, West Bank—The controversy over plans to build Israeli homes in Jerusalem that has overshadowed U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's trip to the Middle East began to lose steam Wednesday, as Palestinian leaders stopped short of pulling out of an American effort to renew peace talks.

Mr. Biden repeated, for the second day, an unusually blunt indictment of Israel, saying that the planning decision "undermined the trust" necessary for the success of the peace process.

Now don't get me wrong....we don't have to support Israel on everything they do just because they are Israel...but we need to clearly remember whose land and city Jerusalem is....God's.

Zechariah 1:17, "This is what the Lord Almighty says: 'My towns will again overflow with prosperity, and the Lord will again comfort Zion and choose Jerusalem.'"

Zechariah 12:3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I (God) will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.

Zechariah 12:9 On that day I (God) will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.

Those are just a few verses of the many that talk about Jerusalem. Clearly, God has big, supernatural plans soon coming for Jerusalem....and VP Biden better be walking VERY gingerly around that Holy ground....lest he bring the wrath of God down on all of us who dwell in the U.S.

Please remember to pray for President Obama and VP Biden...that their eyes may be opened and that God uses them as a vessel for His will to be done.
