The THORNY issues

Isaiah 10:1

King James Version

10 Woe unto them 

that decree unrighteous decrees, 

and that write grievousness 

which they have prescribed;


Just when the families of the hostages started rejoicing.

Again, Hamas makes new "demands".

They know they have the upper hand.

They know Israel will bend to their will.

All because they've got the hostages.

And all as president-elect Trump's inauguration draws near.

The pressure is on, for Israel, and America.


Hamas knows the eyes of the world are upon them.

And milks it for all its unsavory worth.

They know biased media love controversies.

Terrorists thrive upon propaganda.

And depend on deluded supporters' money.

They all feed upon each other.

Like very hungry demons.


In the meantime, Israel suffers.

Fighting on seven fronts.

Even an eight, from within.

Not knowing how many hostages are still alive.

No one loves her, but GOD.

And a few, true born again.

Who understand Scripture, and prophecy.


Everyone's gone their own, crooked way.

According to their own agenda.

But she must bear it all.

JESUS declared:

Matthew 24:13

King James Version

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, 

the same shall be saved.


It is, indeed, a thorny problem.

How everyone has ganged up against Israel, and Trump.

Sabotaging all efforts at peace.

Every conceivable stumbling block thrown their way.

But the LORD gave me a telling verse today.

2 Samuel 23:6-7

King James Version

6 But the sons of Belial shall be all of them 

as thorns thrust away, 

because they cannot be taken with hands:

7 But the man that shall touch them 

must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; 

and they shall be utterly burned with fire 

in the same place.


Striking words, these:

"they cannot be taken with hands:

7 But the man that shall touch them 

must be fenced with iron 

and the staff of a spear;"


You know how thorns prick your skin.

First instinct is to throw it away.

To keep it away from you.

To keep others away from it.

And to have nothing to do with it.


Terrorists are "thorns".

They will always cause pain, harm, and discomfort.

They will NEVER wish you well.

You can NEVER negotiate with them.

They will NEVER be fair, just, or compassionate.

They will ALWAYS look for your "weak" spot.

They will WANT your complete humiliation, subjection, and annihilation.

ESPECIALLY if Satan, their prince, knows you're of GOD.


Thorns "ambush" you.

They draw blood.

They don't warn you fast enough.

You get "pricked", and that's it.

That's when you realize a thorn exists.


Keep away from them.

Which you should.

And I think to myself, what does SPIRIT and Scripture say?

How shall the hostage situation be resolved?

What solution does GOD have about "terrorists"?

How shall this conflict end?

Here's where SPIRIT led me:

Numbers 33:55

King James Version

55 But if ye will not drive out 

the inhabitants of the land from before you; 

then it shall come to pass, 

that those which ye let remain of them 

shall be pricks in your eyes, 

and thorns in your sides, 

and shall vex you in the land 

wherein ye dwell.


The Bible also says:

1 John 5:4-5

King James Version

4 For whatsoever is born of God 

overcometh the world: 

and this is the victory 

that overcometh the world, 

even our faith.

5 Who is he that overcometh the world, 

but he that believeth 

that Jesus is the Son of God?


Thing is, Israel hasn't acknowledged JESUS at all. 

They have not acknowledged He is the Son of God.

Much less that JESUS is the MESSIAH.

The LORD knows it.

That's why He said:

Matthew 23:39

King James Version

39 For I say unto you, 

Ye shall not see me henceforth, 

till ye shall say, 

Blessed is he that cometh 

in the name of the Lord.


This is the simple reason for Israel's suffering.

She has not acknowledged JESUS.

Satan makes sure of that.

That she remain deaf, dumb, and blind.

And yet, he has no idea GOD's real plan.

There is a MASTER plan for salvation.

For both Jew, and Gentile, alike.

There is nothing as intricate as GOD's mind.

Further, nothing the enemy does can ever take away Israel's birthright.


Israel will wake up.

On a day known only to the LORD.

When the time is "ripe", in His eyes.

And in this prescribed manner:

Romans 11:25

King James Version

25 For I would not, brethren, 

that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, 

lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; 

that blindness in part is happened to Israel, 

until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.


Romans 11:11

King James Version

11 I say then, 

Have they stumbled that they should fall? 

God forbid: 

but rather through their fall 

salvation is come unto the Gentiles, 

for to provoke them to jealousy.


Terrorists think they've won the day.

They think they've held Israel, and America, hostage.

But America has already woken up.

Like an awakened eagle, she is spreading her wings.

GOD appointed Trump for the job.

Biden and Kamala are no more.

The woke and left are no more.

California has fallen.

All Satan's strongholds.


Bear it out, Israel.

You are forever loved!

GOD will NEVER abandon you.

BEWARE all who persecute Israel.

BEST you send back her hostages now.

BEST you abandon oppressing Israel.

NEVER hurt her again.

GOD loves her.

Genesis 12:3

King James Version

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, 

and curse him that curseth thee: 

and in thee shall all families of the earth 

be blessed.


Psalm 105:15

King James Version

15 Saying, 

Touch not mine anointed, 

and do my prophets no harm.


Zechariah 2:8 

King James Version

8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; 

After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations 

which spoiled you: 

for he that toucheth you 

toucheth the apple of his eye.


Romans 11:28 

King James Version

28 As concerning the gospel, 

they are enemies for your sakes: 

but as touching the election, 

they are beloved for the father's sakes.
