LIONS of ISRAEL

 

Numbers 24:8-9

King James Version

8 God brought him forth out of Egypt; 

he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: 

he shall eat up the nations his enemies, 

and shall break their bones, 

and pierce them through with his arrows.

9 He couched, 

he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: 

who shall stir him up? 

Blessed is he that blesseth thee, 

and cursed is he that curseth thee.

When will Israel's enemies realize it's futile trying to destroy her?

Perhaps, when GOD makes them born again.

They will have a respect for Israel, GOD's chosen nation.

His SPIRIT will help them understand Scripture, and prophecy.

Only then will they understand Israel cannot be destroyed.

Despite Israel's hard-heartedness, and idolatry, GOD continues to love her.

He's got plans for her.

His covenants are with her.

Isaiah 43:21 

King James Version

21 This people have I formed for myself; 

they shall shew forth my praise.

The recent events of 13 June 2025 showed Israel in charge of her fate.

Apart from GOD having anointed her, of course.

She knows she's got to be on the defense.

When most countries are on the offense.

But this time, she needed to get ahead of Iran.

For the latter wasn't about to let up on its uranium enrichment program.

So Israel launched her "Operation Rising Lion".

In the process, Iran's missile, early warning systems, nuclear facilities, top military officials, and scientists were hit, with precision.

By no measure was it an overnight plan.

Just like with the "beeper" operation against Hezbollah on 17 September 2024, this "lion" operation took years to plan.

Israel is a long-term strategist.

She is decisive. 

Zineb Riboua, Research Fellow, Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East, says it best:

"Israel has proven willing and able to act when others are not."

-- How Israel’s Operation Rising Lion Dismantled Iran from Within: A Case Study in the Art of Deception

That has been this born again watchman's observation, too.

No matter how others try to tie one of Israel's hands, she continues to fight bravely, and strategically.

She always finds a way around setbacks others throw her way.

This David will never surrender to Goliath bullies.

No matter how many try to trip prime minister Netanyahu, he continues on as well.

We've often said, Israel doesn't just fight on seven fronts.

She also fights an eight battle within the Knesset.

Other countries have not been in Israel's place.

They are not ambushed night and day, fighting for her survival.

They are not hated wherever they go.

Only by the GRACE of GOD does Israel continue to exist.

The Gentiles' future is tied with the Jews.

They will never be rid of the Jews.

They can never deny her people.

Nor her existence.

The LION of JUDAH was sent for her.

Jacob, at his deathbed, prophesied the future of the tribe of Judah, from which JESUS, the high priest from Juda, came from:

Genesis 49:8-12

King James Version

8 Judah, thou art he 

whom thy brethren shall praise: 

thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; 

thy father's children shall bow down before thee.

9 Judah is a lion's whelp: 

from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: 

he stooped down, he couched as a lion, 

and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?

Genesis 49:10-12

King James Version

10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, 

nor a lawgiver from between his feet, 

until Shiloh come; and unto him 

shall the gathering of the people be.

11 Binding his foal unto the vine, 

and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; 

he washed his garments in wine, 

and his clothes in the blood of grapes:

12 His eyes shall be red with wine, 

and his teeth white with milk.

Only JESUS, the "Lion of Judah", will be able to open the seven seals of judgment.

Revelation 5:1-5

King James Version

5 And I saw in the right hand 

of him that sat on the throne 

a book written within and on the backside, 

sealed with seven seals.

2 And I saw a strong angel 

proclaiming with a loud voice, 

Who is worthy to open the book, 

and to loose the seals thereof?

3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, 

neither under the earth, 

was able to open the book, 

neither to look thereon.

4 And I wept much, because no man 

was found worthy to open and to read the book, 

neither to look thereon.

5 And one of the elders saith unto me, 

Weep not: 

behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, 

the Root of David, 

hath prevailed to open the book, 

and to loose the seven seals thereof.

Another wonderful account of GOD's favor over His people can be found through prophet Daniel and the lions story.

Israel, indeed, is worthy of launching a "Rising Lion" operation.

She's got the Hand of GOD to back her up.

With her meager size, she has MIGHTY help.

Woe to anyone who tries to decimate this tiny nation GOD chose for Himself.

The lions are for her.

On being REASONABLE

 

Exodus 16:2-3

King James Version

2 And the whole congregation 

of the children of Israel murmured against Moses 

and Aaron in the wilderness:

3 And the children of Israel said unto them, 

Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord 

in the land of Egypt, 

when we sat by the flesh pots, 

and when we did eat bread to the full; 

for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, 

to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

Just four days into office, Trump hears the complaint about "eggs".

Today, eggs are priced 87% lower.

Starting with the basic eggs, president Trump has done so much more.

Look at his first 100 days in office.

All that he promised, he's doing his best to achieve.

Of course, people have to give him more time to do so.

Clinton has had two terms, or eight years (1993-2001).

The younger Bush has had two terms, or eight years (2001-2009).

Obama has had two terms, or eight years (2009-2017).

Biden has had one term, or four years (2021-2025).

That's FOUR different presidents, totaling 28 years.

With every new party, and president, follows different policies.

President Trump needs to clean up after all of them.

We didn't include Trump's first presidency of four years (2017-2021), for he's merely continuing today where he left off.

He has remarked on how the "Ukraine war would not have happened if he was president".

President Trump has to undo 20 years of Democrat woke left policies, especially in the DEI and WEF arenas.

The Biden administration made sure it would resist all Trump reforms.

As he swore in Tulsi Gabbard, as director of national intelligence, president Trump couldn't help but remark, "It's not easy, is it?"

Referring to her 2020 presidential campaign.

She was a Democrat then.

Trump's been president twice, and knows the travails of campaigns, and actual administration.

He's under no illusion the task will be easy this second time around.

As he warned the people at his rallies regarding his reforms, 

"There will be pain."

For those itching to "lynch" the president, for his massive reforms, their imagined failure of his administration, and just pure hatred for the man, we have to say it won't be a "cinch".

He's got GOD's protection.

"Love him, or hate him, GOD chose him"

You can create stumbling blocks before president Trump, but he was appointed by GOD to be president.

America needed help, and Trump was it.

Israel needed help, and Trump was it.

Only he had love for Israel.

True enough, his first visitor at the White House was Israel's prime minister Netanyahu.

This event was repeated a second time.

Looking at the disrespect Dems afforded him, Trump sadly noted at his first joint address in Congress, that no matter what he does, he won't be able to please the DEFIANT dino Dems.

Nevertheless, he and his team work hard to accomplish their reforms.

It will take a while.

DOGE*, alone, has uncovered many federal anomalies.

That's like letting loose a Pandora's box of corruption.

Can you see how "central" DOGE is?

Each appointed cabinet member had to reform their departments.

And with each new finding from DOGE, you can imagine the havoc created.

But at least, they know where to start from.

As they barely got on board, they already got their "baptism of fire" -- a test to their leadership.

It's unreasonable to expect miracles.

Only GOD can perform miracles.

Trump is a president appointed by GOD.

He is getting the divine help he needs.

This, we say, considering 95% media attack him.

Not counting the attacks among Congress, Senate, and Trump haters.

You have to have the stomach of Donald J. Trump, to endure such.

Today, DOGE's Elon Musk invited Jesse Watters of Fox News, to sit in at their board meeting.

Take 14 minutes to listen to their findings:

'FRAUD AT SCALE': Elon Musk exposes shocking waste that makes people 'numb'

 

And another 12-minute video shows what the DOGE team has to go through as they sift through waste, fraud, and abuse:

Elon Musk introduces DOGE team's 'Big Balls'

It's possible Trump, Musk, DOGE, DOJ, DOD, Treasury, Commerce, Homeland Security, and Education, are the most maligned officials, and offices, today.

And yet, they've made the greatest gains.

Now you see where the pulse of their critics are.

And it's surely NOT of the HOLY SPIRIT.

We just pray for president Trump, and team.

They work real hard to fix what's broken.

A lot are actually "shattered".

Thus, needing "replacement".

And massive reforms.

They're all practical folks.

They're adept departments.

They won't fix what's not broken.

Trump and Musk are businessmen.

They know what to do.

They're saving America as much dollars as they can.

They want America safe, secure, healthy, prosperous, and respected again.

Although America's debt is US$36 trillion, DOGE has already saved American taxpayers US$160 billion in 160 days.

So that's like a billion dollars a day savings.

We only hear protests; no thanks, no appreciation.

They have no idea the material Musk and team have to sift through.

There's much panic, and resentment, from their critics.

You know how no one wants to be "found out".

So, they stop Elon all they can.

If Trump had his way, he'd have a MASSIVE sweep to get reforms done, in the FASTEST time possible.

America has hemorrhaged, financially.

Her population has been infiltrated.

He has to work with Congress.

Woke left courts, and judges, try to hinder him.

Mainstream media continue to lambast him.

Still, when it's GOD's will, it shall be done.

It was GOD's will Trump become president.

GOD created Trump for this moment.

No one can take that away from him.

As you saw from that failed assassination attempt.

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick noted, in the National Prayer event yesterday, that it's only president Trump who's mentioned JESUS a lot of times in his administration.

Trump and his team must endure to the end.

They have sound policies.

Their critics have unrealistic expectations.

They just want to be a thorn on Trump's side.

Instead of blessing him, they curse him.

Instead of helping him, they sabotage his efforts.

Instead of thanking him, they ignore his achievements.

What does that make of such people?

To my born again mind, I'd call their ways "heartless".

They have no respect for the new president.

They have no joy in his victory.

They remain bitter, sour, and belligerent.

They prefer to remain "wicked", and rebellious.

Scripture tells us what happens to the wicked.

But Trump was elected president by over 77 million Americans.

And I say:

"Just let the man do his job, will ya!" 

Because if we could do a better job, then GOD would have appointed us.

But He didn't, so president Trump needs our support.

He only has America's best interests at heart.

He was clear about that in his campaign.

DYNAMIC, not deluded

 

JESUS scolded His fearful disciples:

Matthew 8:26

King James Version

26 And he saith unto them, 

Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? 

Then he arose, 

and rebuked the winds and the sea; 

and there was a great calm.

Don't panic so much, if you hear president Trump spout seemingly-strange ideas.

Like taking over Gaza.

Or Panama Canal.

Or Canada.

Or Greenland.

Had enough yet?

More often than not, the idea's got "meat".

It wasn't born in a vacuum.

While the rest of the world sleeps five, eight, or even ten hours, Trump sleeps "three".

His brain's busy whirrin'.

It would also help to have a look at his past.

His father, Fred Trump, was in home construction.

He continued his own father's real estate business, which eventually became The Trump Organization.

That makes president Trump a third-generation real estate builder.

He joined that organization in 1968.

That means, president Trump is no newcomer in real estate.

What I also remember from past readings was that Trump had always been a "flashy" guy.

His authoritarian father was more toned down.

He built homes in Queens, New York.

But young Trump set his eyes on Manhattan.

When I still used to read fashion magazines in the mid-80s, most of the society pages showed him and his first wife, Ivana, schmoozing with other elites.

He cannot be faulted with thinking big.

He's lived the big life, worked hard, built a real estate empire, spoke wherever he got interviewed.

He wasn't shy about putting his "TRUMP" name boldly on everything.

Well, if you can, why not, right?

He's his own BEST brand anyway.

He was also destined to become American president TWICE.

Now, others can be faulted for envying that.

But that's how it is with "predestination".

GOD cut him out for something.

And I know it's to help America, and Israel.

And maybe other nations as well.

To show others what's possible.

To take out rusty brains from cages.

To stretch your thinking, and stretch that dollar.

Possibly, even to reveal the presence of hatred, or envy, in your heart -- for all things GOD, and all things Trump.

For he does trigger that in you, doesn't he?

He obviously loves ideas.

So when he throws ideas like taking back Panama Canal, or having a "Trump Gaza", or inviting Greenland to be an American state, or even having the compunction to declare Canada can be America's 51st state, you can imagine the furor.

That's why the woke left likens him to the "Führer".

Well Trump is constructive.

Hitler was destructive.

Business is brutal.

Entrepreneurship is creative.

Building is expansive, and expensive.

Politics is worse than brutal.

Only a Donald Trump can be biz-prez.

Only he can say he's "been there; done that".

His ways, as 47th president, may seem ruthless to some.

But for a nation that almost died, GOD put this president in.

America needed a Trump.

You don't need more of a Biden, through Kamala.

You don't need more of dino Dems, when they've messed up big time, too many times, for too long a period already.

Dying America needed a Trump.

She needed that "spunky", pioneering spirit.

"Love him, or hate him, GOD chose him"

When he spouts ideas, I smile.

For there could be some gem of truth in there.

Don't be so quick to shoot down his ideas.

And if he really believes in something, he may just see it through.

Never underestimate this GOD-appointed president.

His enemies have called him all the names in the book.

But he just does his thing.

At his first joint address to Congress, he appointed secretary of state, Marco Rubio, to deal with the Panama thing.

I looked at Rubio's face, and saw his reserved smile.

Did I detect some weariness, too?

And then again, Rubio speaks that nation's language.

By GOD's GRACE, this devout Catholic may just accomplish it.

But Trump has already planted the "seeds".

Usually, the seeds that bring on anger, panic, shock, disdain, disbelief, discomfort, and even envy in people.

He's "disturbed" the soil, that his "plant" may see light.

Like "periscopes" peeking above the ground, doing a "recon".

By now, you know Trump has a vast seed "bank".

The dynamic dude will NEVER run out of ideas.

Change can't come from lame ideas.

You've got to have a bold spirit.

You have to be a "maverick".

You've got to believe in your ideas.

You've got to push creativity past the norms.

You've got to act upon your ideas, or they're dead.

But, as a decent person, you don't get ahead of GOD.

Only GOD has no limits.

Don't do a "Lucifer".

Isaiah 14:13-14

King James Version

13 For thou hast said in thine heart, 

I will ascend into heaven, 

I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: 

I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, 

in the sides of the north:

14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; 

I will be like the most High.

Neither do a "tower of Babel".

Genesis 11:4

King James Version

4 And they said, 

Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, 

whose top may reach unto heaven; 

and let us make us a name, 

lest we be scattered abroad 

upon the face of the whole earth.

Trump has many towers.

He's also got a name.

Emblazoned almost in everything he owns.

But GOD allowed all that.

Probably because Trump hasn't thought of "unseating" GOD.

Which no one could, anyway.

But I do mind that AI-generated thing showing a golden Trump statue in Gaza.

And him and Netanyahu lounging, having drinks.

Uh-oh.

I don't like it when I get "uh-oh" moments.

Please scrap the "statue" idea.

A born again would pray.

That's how we get our ideas.

We pray to JESUS.

We wait for SPIRIT to activate us.

And we give ALL GLORY to GOD alone.

We live, and breathe Scripture, and GOD's will.

But don't hate Trump.

He's just fulfilling his destiny.

I thank GOD for revealing more about this man.

The LORD gave me TWO verses, tailor-made for president Trump.

The "win" (written on 4 November 2024, Philippine time):

Ecclesiastes 3:15

King James Version

15 That which hath been is now; 

and that which is to be hath already been; 

and God requireth that which is past.

A potential "fall" (written on 12 November 2024):

Daniel 5:20

King James Version

20 But when his heart was lifted up, 

and his mind hardened in pride, 

he was deposed from his kingly throne, 

and they took his glory from him:

That's the danger president Trump may fall in.

Because he often gets what he wants.

By the GRACE of GOD, he'll keep looking to GOD.

It actually applies to everyone.

Forget that GOD gave you success, and that's it.

We're to remember ALL GLORY belongs to GOD alone.

Best we can do is PRAY for his success.

GOD didn't put him there for nothing.

GOD wants His glory, through this man.

We must not even think of depriving GOD His GLORY.

Only a deluded demon would do that.

That's why I'm here writing about president Trump each day.

As the HOLY SPIRIT guides me.

Because we're looking after this embattled president.

Many want to see him fail, and fall.

Many want him destroyed.

I don't.

He's going to help Israel.

That's one of his many tasks.

Obviously, if you want Israel destroyed, you'll destroy Trump.

Or at least try to.

But you won't succeed.

Trump has received that "anointing"

Especially for these dark, difficult days.

You would not want to be in Trump's position.

Apart from prime Minister Netanyahu, he's got the toughest job, too.

As he swore in director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, he joked her that it's not easy running for president, as she found out for herself in 2020.

And she had to acknowledge that with a smile.

Only a Trump can bear all the "hits".

Surely, GOD's protecting this man.

Otherwise, that bullet could have gotten him on 13 July 2024 in Pennsylvania.

He's got a solid mission.

We've got to help him.

I am.

MIRACLE in Tel Aviv

 

Romans 11:33-36

King James Version

33 O the depth of the riches 

both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! 

how unsearchable are his judgments, 

and his ways past finding out!

34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? 

or who hath been his counsellor?

Surprisingly, news media doesn't seem to talk about it.

But a miracle just happened in Tel Aviv yesterday.

What could have been a MEGA-terror attack upon an unsuspecting population was "averted".

Only through GOD's will, and hand, was this possible.

Apparently, Iran had smuggled through Iraq, Syria, Jordan, and northern Samaria explosives and devices, through a bunch of Israeli-dressed terrorists.

They then headed for southern Tel Aviv, and boarded buses and light trains.

The "hitch" happened because of "timing".

The Hamas terrorists had used an analog watch, set to detonate the explosives for 9am Friday.

Thing is, they've mixed up the AM/PM settings.

It set off at 9pm Thursday.

The explosives in bags were planted in 15 buses.

Five suicide bombers were also riding light trains.

As GOD would have it, one bus driver noticed a bag left in his bus.

He drove his bus into an empty parking lot, where he left it to explode.

Job 34:25

King James Version

25 Therefore he knoweth their works, 

and he overturneth them in the night, 

so that they are destroyed.

From that, the authorities were alerted, and all public transportation was halted.

Again, as GOD would have it, some CULPRITS were captured.

And that's how Israel got hold of their nefarious plan.

Job 34:26

King James Version

26 He striketh them as wicked men 

in the open sight of others;

Turned out, it was going to be a "distraction", and "pre-invasion" of Israel.

As the people were grieving over the bodies of the four dead hostages, Iran and Hamas were at it again.

Amir Tsarfati, who reported on this, said it was going to be an "October 7 on steroids".

That means it will have been worse than October 7.

Tsarfati, an Israeli major, and born again pastor, says it best:

"A mega terror attack was thwarted by the GRACE of GOD, and not thanks to anyone in Israel."

-- Breaking News: Hamas' Game Continues, Terror Averted 

(watch from the 11:58th minute of the video)

THANK GOD Israel was saved!

She's still reeling, and grieving, from the hostage situation.

Now, another wicked plan had been put in place.

There's really no let-up from Satan's end, for he knows his end is near.

Revelation 12:12

King James Version

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, 

and ye that dwell in them. 

Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! 

for the devil is come down unto you, 

having great wrath, because he knoweth 

that he hath but a short time.

As if GOD would allow another atrocity committed upon His people.

Know this -- Iran, Hamas, and ALL who seek Israel's destruction:

Numbers 32:23

King James Version

23 But if ye will not do so, 

behold, 

ye have sinned against the Lord: 

and be sure your sin will find you out.

Job 34:21-24

King James Version

21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, 

and he seeth all his goings.

22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, 

where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; 

that he should enter into judgment with God.

24 He shall break in pieces mighty men 

without number, and set others in their stead.

Israel will not be destroyed.

She cannot be destroyed.

She is GOD's holy nation.

Deuteronomy 14:2 

King James Version

2 For thou art an holy people 

unto the Lord thy God, 

and the Lord hath chosen thee 

to be a peculiar people unto himself, 

above all the nations 

that are upon the earth.
