Last night I was watching away on Amir Tsarfati’s Telegram, my eyes glued to the screen in the wee hours, feeling the weight of what’s happening in Israel. Their Operation Rising Lion ~ Am KeLavi, meaning “Nation Like a Lion” from Numbers 23:24 ~ has walloped Iran’s nuclear sites and IRGC bigwigs. It’s got me thinking of Psalm 83, with nations ganging up on God’s people. As folks with a heart for the Lord and Israel, let’s dive into this story, see what’s what, and pray hard, deeply.

Good evening from a windy evening in the West of Scotland, my friends in faith! As Born Again Christians with a heart for the Lord’s Word, we’re called to bless Israel and seek truth in a world so divided.

In the UK and Glasgow’s streets over the last couple of years, I have heard chants of “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” When I ask protesters about which river or sea they mean, many appear clueless, revealing ignorance behind this divisive slogan.

My heart burns for Israel and for sharing Jesus’s love through ‘Supporting Israel’ and ‘Born Again Christians’. The Bible tells us Jews are native to Israel, God’s chosen people with a 3,000-year tie to the land (Genesis 15:18).
