Spiritual Eyes See God Guarding His land and People

By Frank Eiklor

I have been to Israel in times of danger and war. I may be there again. This time it is very different. And so much more frightening for Israel’s people.

I shared fortified rooms with the Jews—and wore a gas mask along with...

The first time, I was in Lebanon when the Israelis attacked Arafat in Beruit. Another conflict came when Saddam fired missiles into Israel. I shared fortified rooms with the Jews—and wore a gas mask along with them. I remember thinking as I peered through my mask at women and children sitting quietly in their gas masks, "Nothing has changed. Hitler gassed innocent Jews. Now Saddam Hussein wants to do the same.”

Then another thought kicked in, "Ah, but there is one difference between Hitler and now. Today there is an Israel—a country where Jews can declare ‘Never Again!’.”

Israel is not facing just rockets or even gas attacks

But now?! Israel is not facing just rockets or even gas attacks. Iran is stalling for time while her rulers hurry toward their perceived destiny—nuclear bombs to turn Israel into a wasteland. The words of the prophets sound with clarity. Israel looks terribly alone. Only spiritual eyes see God guarding His land and people while bringing "all nations” into judgment and Israel to repentance.

...these are the times Yeshuah wants to be seen and heard through His followers

Pray for my many Israeli friends and colleagues—and my many brothers and sisters in the Lord. The One who came 2000 years ago is coming again. And these are the times Yeshuah wants to be seen and heard through His followers. I have heard "Come over and help us!” in past critical times. If that call comes again, I shall be there once more.
