Hello, John and Doves,When I read that a terrorist native to Norway attacked his own country, I immediately suspected that another nation--Norway--was jumping on the wagon called, "Let's stick it to Israel and her God."It is written,"Be not deceived; God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap."Galatians 6:7 KJVMore specifically, Isaiah records God's thoughts on the matter in Isaiah, chapter 43."When you go through the waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown.
When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.
"For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom; I gave Ethiopia and Seba in your place. Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours, because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you." Isaiah 43:2-4 NLT
God also says," 'I, yes, I am the LORD, and there is no other Savior.
" 'First I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are witnesses that I am the only God,' says the LORD.
" 'From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.' " Isaiah 43:11-13 NLTAfter all, Israel is the apple of God's eye. If you don't mess with Texas, how much less should any nation provoke the Captain of the Hosts of Israel, The LORD of Sabbaoth, The King of Glory?"Who is the King of glory?The LORD, strong and mighty;the LORD, invincible in battle."Open up, ancient gates!Open up, ancient doors,and let the King of glory enter."Who is the King of glory?The LORD of Heaven's Armies--He is the King of glory." Psalm 24:8-10Baruch HaShem Adonai,Mike C.
