I woke up Saturday morning, October 7, 2023, shocked by the news of what has been transpiring in Israel. Barbarous Hamas terrorists from the Gaza Strip infiltrated Israel and committed mass murder, killing men, women, and children. They took many others hostage, including young IDF soldiers for the purpose of trying to prevent Israel from responding to this grievous attack on its sovereignty.
Today our hearts are heavy. We pray for Israel as a nation and for the Israeli families scattered all throughout the land who wonder what has happened to their sons, their daughters, and their other loved ones.
As I reflect over this horrific attack on Israel, I am reminded of what King David wrote in Psalm 59:1-3 when he said: “Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; set me securely on high away from those who rise up against me. Deliver me from those who do iniquity and save me from men of bloodshed. For behold, they have set an ambush for my life; fierce men launch an attack against me.”
David felt the same onslaught of hatred and of bitterness that we see manifest today by satanically inspired terrorist who long to kill innocent Israelis. These killers burn with a hatred for Israel and the Jewish people just because of who they are — God’s chosen people.
We here at Lamb & Lion Ministries do indeed stand united with Israel. We stand united behind God’s chosen people knowing that He has a plan and a provision for them — to bring a great remnant of Jews to salvation. And so, we pray for Israel today. We pray for individual Israelis. And, we pray for the Jewish people, some of whom we know by name.
I often turn to read a Psalm each day of the month. On October 7th, Psalm 7 was so poignant in describing the horror that we witnessed taking place in Israel. David again writes says, “O LORD my God, in You I have taken refuge; save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me” (v.1). In verse 6, he calls out, “Arise, O LORD, in Your anger; lift up Yourself against the rage of my adversaries, and arouse Yourself for me; You have appointed judgment.” In verse 9, David asks: “O let the evil of the wicked one come to an end, but establish the righteous; for the righteous God tries the hearts and minds. My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.” And, at the very conclusion of Psalm 7, in verse 17, David writes, “I will give thanks to the LORD according to His righteousness, I will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.”
Today we pray for the deliverance of those who are being held hostage. We pray for comfort — for shalom — for all of Israel and all those families whose lives have been devastated. We stand with Israel!
Lamb & Lion Ministries will continue to pray for the Jewish people, even as we seek to bless them. In the name of our great God and Savior — the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob — and the wonderful name of our Jewish Messiah, Yeshua, may Christ come quickly. Until Jesus comes, may each of you have peace and rest in God’s eternal shalom. Godspeed!

Thanks to Lamb and Lion and now we see things are heating up in the Middle East heading toward God’s conclusion. God made the Abrahamic covenant with Israel Genesis 13:14.
The Lord said to Abraham after Lot had departed from him. Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west, all the land that you see I will give you and your offspring forever. I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if anyone could count the dust, then your offspring could be counted. Go walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you. So Abram moved his tents and went to live near the great trees of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the Lord.
The Age old battle for the land that belongs to Israel continues.
Can Word be sent to Israel to Stand Firmly on Isaiah 54:17 that no weapon formed will prevail against them. In running TO Our Lord He protects us / them.‽
Yes, Very True. God has placed watchmen on their walls. There will be wars, just like Lamb & Lion has posted for everyone to see, but the finale is the Holy One of Israel coming to destroy Israel’s enemies. Ezekiel 39. “Son of man, prophesy what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. Ezekiel 38:21. I will summon a sword. God’s sword of judgment. God intervenes directly. The coalition of Israel’s enemies will turn on itself, as did the armies that attacked Judah in the time of Jehoshaphat. 2Chronicles 20:22-23.
I just came from the comment section of your last article to review it and left an additional comment because of a viewer’s comments giving a rapture date for Nov of 2026.
1. Rapture: Monday, Nov. 9, 2026, by Ken Burkett Ph.D. in OT Interpretation.
This concurs with my idea of 2025 because of two dreams, but I could be off by a year. And 2025 to 2075 is the last Jubilee according to the Essene calendar.
Ken Johnson explained that the word violence in Hebrew means Hamas and in Amos chapter 6 along with Dead Sea Scrolls 4-Q177 that this Hamas attack was foretold.
Also, Ezekiel 7:7-11 is made reference to Israels situation right now. It is MIND BLOWING how Amos 6 and Ez. 7 lays it out.
The IDS has gotten used to the status quo and allowed their enemy to sneak up on them.
Amos 6:3 Ye that put far away the evil day and cause the seat of violence (Hamas) to come near; (Violence in Hebrew is Hamas)
Here is Ken Johnson’s 14-minute video explaining the above.

Isaiah 54:17. no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. Refute every tongue, means that no charges could be brought against the servants of the Lord. The servants are true believers, both Jews and Gentiles, who are faithful to the Lord.
True believers can see the pages of the Bible being fulfilled, just as Jesus said they would. Amazing that things that were prophesied thousands of years are coming to fruition. God is Truth!
