Israel (12) - Heart Exposed

The house of Israel is still desolate. Sympathy with their suffering has caused most Christians have given Israel the benefit of the doubt, so the heart of the house had remained hidden from them. But, those days are coming to an end. In the next few years, the true heart of the desolate house will be revealed. Many good people live in Israel, without blessing of the Holy Spirit and the protection of the blood of Jesus, an insidious flood of evil spirits is slowly penetrating their culture.

During the Time of Distress, this host of evil spirits will break out and cause and the political leadership of Israel to go ugly. Violent and angry leaders will take rash actions in an attempt to force things to happen. The spirit of violence and war will be revealed.
Daniel warned of what will happen.

In those times many ….. The violent men among your own people will rebel in fulfilment of the vision, but without success (Dan 11:14).

During a time when the nations are distracted by a disturbance somewhere else in the Middle East, violent people in Israel will attempt to take advantage of the situation to use violence and force to try and establish their vision for the dominance of Israel. Daniel says that they will fail to establish their vision, because they are rushing ahead of God’s agenda. However the truth heart of the house will be exposed for all the world to see.

The result will be a disaster for Israel, as the nations of the world will turn against Israel. Unfortunately, the United States will turn more than most nations. American politicians have consistently bowed to the Jewish lobby and supported Israel through thick and thin. When the rotten heart of Israel is exposed, they will feel betrayed. People who are taken for granted and then betrayed can quickly turn nasty. To misquote Shakespeare, “Hell hath no fury like a politician scorned”. American politicians will be outraged by the way their trust has been abused and will want revenge.

The invader will do as he pleases; no one will be able to stand against him. He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land and will have the power to destroy it (Dan 11:16).

An American army that has already invaded the Middle East, will also invade Israel. The expression "power to destroy" literally means "destruction in his hand". The invading army will have weapons of mass destruction.

Although armed with mighty weapons of war, their spiritual weapons be weak. They will pick up many terrible spirits, which will harm the leaders of their nation.
