This solution may seem naive, but not to those of us who see miracles through prayer and understanding the spirit realm is far greater than the physical. I was reading some of the book of Isaiah this morning and found this scripture:
“The Lord has made bare His Holy Arm before the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.” 52:10 It says all nations…..’His Holy Arm’ is Jesus….the ends of all the earth include….whoa…..all the earth! So salvation is for all the earth….duh….we knew that, right!
We who do know the Savior must lead the fight for Israel, for all in the middle east in prayer. We are told to pray for the peace of Israel. There is more, much more. Jesus said, “If any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.”
Just how did he do that? First He paid for our sins, then declared, “Forgive them Father, they know not what they do!” He set ‘forgiveness’ in motion, not as a ‘humanaterian’ act but as a law unto God, to be used in the world to bring love, joy and peace with mercy and grace to all mankind…..as many as follow Jesus can use this spiritual weapon of warfare. Love and forgiveness are so sonorous it is hard to tell the difference at times as both work miracles.
As long as we take sides (spiritually) and judge Humas, or any other terrorist group, we have grounded our prayers in judgment, and the loving affect is gone. In the physical world we must fight to preserve in what ever way is possible, hoping to use mercy and grace in doing so…..we can leave that to the world and those who are in charge and care for their own people (Presidents, Generals, Dictators, etc.).
But, we who want to win the eternal war will heed the words of Paul to the Romans, “And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.” Rom 16:20
In prayer we have the privilege to forgive (John 20:23), to rid ourselves of judgment (Matt 7:12) and demand the enemy loose the captives (Isaiah 61), declaring peace over them and the Spirit of Prophecy–Jesus (Revelation 19:10) be released over them, and they are blessed with all the gifts of the Holy Spirit–love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith. (Gal 5:22).
It is mind-boggling to think we have this awesome power–however–we do! The power of the tongue is life or death, condemnation or liberation!
Years ago friends from Israel told us of many Jewish people who were actually getting a ‘visitation’ from Jesus calling them into faith. All things are possible with God!
We must Pray prayers that bring Life; pray for protection for all the people from the results of the on-going war; bind the spirits of death, violence and mayhem over both countries (Matt 16:18,19), and pray spiritual protection over ourselves that there will be no retaliation for our intercession! No matter what the country or nationality Jesus is the answer to world peace, prosperity and well being!
Pressing in and pressing on….
