It is time for those who do not know Jesus Christ to accept HIM as your Lord and Savior time is getting short.

 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9-11 NKJV

For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk uprightly. He guards the paths of justice, And preserves the way of His saints. Proverbs 2:6 - 8 NKJV

 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be know of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.   
-Romans 1:18-19

 

That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.

—Philippians 3:10 KJV

 

But be doers of the word, and not merely hearers who deceive themselves. - James 1:22

 

“Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth.”

 

Matthew 5:5

  

 

On Eagles' Wings, is how God delivers the Jewish people. This is so educational and true. Genesis 12:3 - I will bless those who bless Israel . I am not asking you to give to them, that is up to you. I loved the article.

 

 

"I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to Myself."  (Exodus 19:4)

 

 

Shalom,

 

God brought the Jewish People to Himself “on eagles’ wings.”

 

This metaphoric language is so rich and meaningful.

 

God brought the Jewish People out of Egypt in such a way that He personally watched over and carried them so they would mature into a kingdom of priests and a holy nation (Exodus 19:6).

 

And today, God is again bringing His Chosen People home “on eagles’ wings,” repopulating the modern state of Israel.

 

Let’s look at how God uses the eagle to describe His tender care of the Jewish People and His commitment to keep His promises to them.

On Eagles’ Wings: God’s Mission of Personal Deliverance

 

“You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ [nesharim] wings and brought you to Myself.”  (Exodus 19:4)

 

Like the fledgling eagle (nesher in Hebrew) who is weak and vulnerable, God birthed Israel as His Chosen People hovering over them with His protection from the advancing Egyptian army.

 

In a pillar of fire at night, He guided their path.  In a cloud by day, He shielded them from the scorching sun.

 

And as they wandered in the desolate wilderness, He provided a daily sustenance of heavenly manna and abundant water.

Another interpretation has been offered, however.

 

The word nesher can be translated, in some cases, as the Griffon vulture, that still populates Israel in the Golan Heights and Negev desert.

 

Though its name is not naturally poetic, this bird of prey can fly as high as a commercial airliner at 37,000 feet, much higher than the eagle at 10,000 feet, and is wonderfully graceful in the air.

 

Furthermore, "I carried you" [va'esa etchem] is sometimes translated as I elevated you.

 

This alternate translation helps us understand that God elevated the Jewish People as a nation to spiritual heights that were abundantly above anything the natural world could do for them.

 

 
Griffon vultures in Israel are seen at the Gamla nature Reserve in the Golan heights 
as well as the Sde Boker Kibbutz or Ramon Crater in the Negev Desert.

 

And if there were any doubt that God alone safely delivered Israel out of their tyrannical living conditions in Egypt, Moses tells us:

 

“He shielded him [Jacob / Israel] and cared for him; He guarded him as the apple of His eye, like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, that spreads its wings to catch them and carries them aloft, the Lord alone led; no foreign god was with Him.”  (Deuteronomy 32:10–12)

 

Sadly, the sin of the Israelites cut them off from God’s tender protection many times after they left Egypt, beginning with worshiping the golden calf and culminating in their rejection of Yeshua (Jesus).

 

As a result, many Christians believe that all the evil that has befallen the Jewish People is a sign that God has permanently cursed them for rejecting Yeshua.

 

 

 
Yeshua Wept, by James Tissot

 

On the contrary, Yeshua wept when His Jewish brethren rejected Him, saying:

 

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.”  (Matthew 23:37)

 

Yeshua is longing to be reconciled with His Jewish people and to have an intimate relationship with them.

 

That is why He said, “All those the Father gives Me will come to Me, and whoever comes to Me I will never drive away.”  (John 6:37)

This reconciliation happens every time a Jewish Person accepts Yeshua; but today, 99% of the Jewish people do not accept Him as their Messiah.

 

However, we believe we are in the last days, and the prophecy of Zechariah 12:10 is soon to take place when the Jewish people on a national scale will see Yeshua — the one they pierced.  And they will mourn for Him.

 

On that day, they will say, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.”  (Matthew 23:39)

 

For this national reconciliation to happen, the Jewish People everywhere must be regathered from their worldwide exile and return to Israel, their Biblical homeland.

 

 
Jewish youth proudly display the Israeli flag as they make aliyah (immigrate to Israel).

 

While many believe that the modern state of Israel is a completely man-made phenomenon, others understand that it is a move of God.  As Jewish scholar Dr. Michael Brown often says, “What God has cursed, no man can bless.”

 

God also answered that argument by saying:

 

“Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done.” (Jeremiah 31:37)

 

“For I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.’” (Jeremiah 33:25–26)

 

Yes, it is God alone who is restoring the Jewish People to their promised land.  He set that plan in motion through two major historical events, both taking place in the month of November:

• The Balfour Declaration of November 2, 1917 — a British commitment to establish a Jewish homeland in land of Biblical Israel.
• That commitment would ultimately be fulfilled by the United Nations’ Partition Plan on November 29, 1947 — a UN resolution to divide Palestine into two states: one Jewish and one Arab.

On Eagles’ Wings:   Israel’s Secret Deliverance Mission

 

“Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”  (Isaiah 40:31)

 

On the heels of the Holocaust, Jews emigrated from Europe to the safety of Israel.

 

Following the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan, however, the situation for Jews living in the Arab world became progressively more dangerous.

 

 
A Yemenite Jewish family walks through the desert to a reception camp in Aden, 
where they were flown to their Jewish homeland of Israel.

 

In Yemen and Syria, Arab pogroms (violent riots of looting, killing and raping) were launched against the Jewish People.

 

In 1948, when Israel declared itself a nation, the situation grew even worse as the violence escalated.

 

The steady trickle of Jews fleeing Arab countries like a stream, became a river.

 

By the early 1970s, approximately a million Jews left, fled, or were expelled from their homes in Arab countries.

 

In response to an increasingly perilous situation for the Yemenite Jewish community, Israel organized an airlift, officially code-named On Wings of Eagles after Exodus 19:4:  “I carried you on eagles’ wings.”

 

 
A full plane of Yemenite Jewish immigrants en route to Israel.

 

This rescue occurred in secret between June 1949 and September 1950 and didn’t become public until several months after its successful completion.

 

Most of these Yemenite Jews had never seen such a thing as an airplane or even an automobile, so they were afraid to board the planes.

 

Instead of panicking, they sat calmly after their rabbi explained how God had delivered the Jewish People out of Egypt on the wings of eagles.

 

In total, almost 50,000 Jews were flown from Yemen to Israel.  By September 1950, very few Jews remained in Yemen.

 

In honor of this daring secret operation, a street in Jerusalem and another in Herzliya has been named Kanfei Nesharim — Wings of Eagles.

Genesis 12:3 - I will bless those who bless Israel

 

Remember D Day. President Franklin Roosevelt's D-Day Prayer June 6, 1944

 

President Franklin Roosevelt's D-Day Prayer June 6, 1944

My fellow Americans: Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far.

And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:

Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.

Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.

They will need Thy blessings. Their road will be long and hard. For the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces. Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again; and we know that by Thy grace, and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest-until the victory is won. The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war.

For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and good will among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.

Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.

And for us at home -- fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas -- whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them--help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.

Many people have urged that I call the Nation into a single day of special prayer. But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in a continuance of prayer. As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking Thy help to our efforts.

Give us strength, too -- strength in our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces.

And let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.

And, O Lord, give us Faith. Give us Faith in Thee; Faith in our sons; Faith in each other; Faith in our united crusade. Let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events, of temporal matters of but fleeting moment let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.

With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy. Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogancies. Lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister Nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men. And a peace that will let all of men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.

Thy will be done, Almighty God.

Amen.

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts. See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. - Psalm 139: 23-24

 

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. —Hebrews 4:16 NKJV

 

 

Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.

Isaiah 55:6 NKJV

 

In God is my salvation and my glory; The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. Psalm 62:7 NKJV

 

 

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

Revelation 3:20 NKJV

 

“My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord: in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.” - Psalms 5:3

 

Psalms 91

 Psalms 91

1 He _a who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide _b under the shadow of the Almighty. ² _c I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust."

³ Surely _d He shall deliver you from the snare of the ₁ fowler
And from the perilous pestilence. ⁴ _e He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and ₂ buckler. ⁵ _f You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day, ⁶ Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

⁷ A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you. ⁸ Only _g with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.

⁹ Because you have made the LORD, who is _h my refuge,
Even the Most High, _i your dwelling place, ¹⁰ _j No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

¹¹ _k For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways. ¹² In their hands they shall ₃ bear you up,
_l Lest you ₄ dash your foot against a stone. ¹³ You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

¹⁴ "Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will ₅ set him on high, because he has _m known My name. ¹⁵ He shall _n call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be _o with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him. ¹⁶ With ₆ long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation."

Amen!
