No One Will Come to Israel's Aid

The Bible says a day is coming when no nation will come to Israel's aid as she is being readied for destruction by her enemies.

Where is America?  I don't know but a few possibilities would be that the rapture has happened and America is in such disarray that she can't send help.  Or maybe we are so bankrupt and beholden to China and Russia that we can't afford it and can't risk offending our lenders?  Or maybe the spirit of anti-semitism has so taken over the Western world that we just say, "the Jews will have to figure this one out."

Ultimately God will be the savior of Israel when that day comes...and the Bible hints that when that happens that some big spiritual things will go down in Israel that begin to turn them back to God.

With that as a backdrop...check out this article and I will bold the prophetic sentence that caught my eye.

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Iran is on course to develop a nuclear bomb within six months and time has run out for further negotiations, a senior Israeli minister said.

Strategic Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz said Iran still believed it had room for maneuver in dealing with world powers, and that unless it faced a credible threat of U.S. military action, it would not stop its nuclear activities.

"There is no more time to hold negotiations," Steinitz, who is close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said in an interview with the Israel Hayom daily published on Friday.

The United States and its allies suspect Iran is working towards a nuclear weapons capability despite Tehran's insistence that its atomic program has only peaceful aims.

During four years of international negotiations over its disputed nuclear program, during which U.N.-sponsored sanctions have hit Iran's economy hard, Steinitz said the Islamic Republic had only improved its capabilities.

"If the Iranians continue to run, in another half a year they will have bomb capability," he said.
Israel has dismissed overtures to the West by new Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, and his pledge in an interview on U.S. television that Iran would never develop nuclear weapons.

"One must not be fooled by the Iranian president's fraudulent words," Netanyahu's office said in a statement on Thursday. "The Iranians are spinning in the media so that the centrifuges can keep on spinning."

Iran says its nuclear work is entirely peaceful and calls Israel's presumed atomic arsenal the bigger danger to the region.

Steinitz said Netanyahu had learned a lesson from Syria, where the world has stood largely by while over 100,000 people have died in two and a half years of civil war.

"It must be understood that no one will come to help us if, heaven forefend, we lose the ability to defend ourselves. Therefore we must do everything to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon," he said.

All eyes are on Israel.  She is such a thorn in the side of this Satanic world!  How can this tiny little country a few miles wide with a few million people possibly be such a big deal to everyone??

Because it is God's covenant people.  Satan knows it and he is gathering the forces necessary to make one final swipe to see if he can't break God's eternal promise regarding Israel.  He knows he only has to be successful once...and then can point out to all of creation that God's word is not true!

Thank you Jesus that you have given us the end of the story!  We know how it ends!  You have perfectly upheld YOUR WORD and we have 100% confidence that your promises regarding Israel will also come to fruition!  Amen!
