May 10th, 2024 | Messianic World Update | Examining Middle East Conflicts and U.S. Involvement

Shalom, everyone. I’m Monte Judah with another edition of Messianic World Update. Today's date is Friday, May 10th, of the year 2024. This week, I want to share my thoughts on the escalating conflicts in the Middle East and our responsibilities as believers.

There's a growing concern over the stand that the United States, under President Joe Biden, is taking. He seems neither to support Israel nor Hamas, but his actions, especially those encouraging anti-Israel protests, speak louder. This perceived support for Hamas is causing unease among both Republicans and Democrats, who fear that it's making it harder for Israel to defend itself.

Biden's actions, in my opinion, are a mix of incompetence and senility. His decisions, beginning with the evacuation of troops from Afghanistan, have led to numerous disasters. Now, his actions are causing harm to Israel.

There's an increasing call for impeachment from the GOP in Congress. They argue that Biden is doing the same thing they accused Trump of—a quid pro quo. He's withholding support from Israel, just like they claimed Trump did from Ukraine. Both Democrats and Republicans are attempting to form a bipartisan group to persuade Biden to reverse his stance and support our ally, Israel.

Despite the trials, Netanyahu remains steadfast. He has made it clear that Israel will move forward, even if it stands alone. However, I believe, and I hope Netanyahu agrees, that Israel is not alone, for the God of Israel stands with them.

Luke Hilton and Ryan Cabrera, from the Israel Guys podcast, stopped by Messianic World Update today to share about their upcoming conference in Nashville and the work they are doing to bring the beauty and truth of Israel to America. Their efforts to unify those who support Israel are admirable, and I encourage you to consider attending their conference.

Hilton and Cabrera also discussed their ministry, HaYovel, which is based in Israel, helping with the growing season and the vineyards. They shared how they've been able to provide protective vests, helmets, drones, flashlights, binoculars, and much more to the Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria to equip their civilian security teams through a special donation program called “Operation Ittai.”

In closing, I urge you to pray for Israel and the Jewish people. We are living in times of great upheaval, but we trust in the promises of God. If you want to support the work being done to protect Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, consider donating to HaYovel's ministry at www.serveisrael.com.

Remember, the God of Israel stands with us. Let's continue to trust Him and pray for peace in Israel and around the world.

Shabbat Shalom to all of you.
