We are told in Luke 22:3 how a man, a disciple and close friend of Jesus who after being filled with the spirit of Satan betrayed Jesus. Specifically that man, Judas Iscariot, went to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard (enemies of Jesus) to contrive the best way to betray Jesus.
We are further told this betrayal resulted in Jesus being abandoned by those he trusted and left alone to defend Himself through a series of carefully controlled hearings and procedures designed by Satan for the purpose of thwarting God’s plan of redemption.
As bad as this looked for believers in Jesus at that time, little did they know God had used this satanic evil plan to fulfill His (God’s) ultimate plan for the salvation of all past and future believers. Praise be to God for He is in control of every event.
This December 28th, I submit, a man representing a nation that is a close friend to Israel, who after being filled with the spirit of Satan betrayed Israel. Specifically that man, the secretary of state representing the United States of America, John Kerry, went to the leaders priest and captains of the enemy’s of Israel to contrive the best way to betray, the very Apple of God’s Eye.
This betrayal has resulting in Israel being abandoned by those they trusted and left alone to defend themselves through what appear to be a series of carefully controlled hearings and procedures designed by Satan for the purpose of thwarting God’s plan of completed redemption of both His land (Israel), His completed saints and His promises to Abraham.
As bad as this looks for Israel and all believers in Jesus at this time, know this: God is using this satanic evil plan to not only bless Israel but also to fulfill His ultimate plan for not just the salvation of all past and future believers but His return to establish both His kingdom and His 1000-year millennial reign.
Rejoice when we see these things for God has told us in advance, “when we see these things look up for our redemption drawth neigh.”
Praise be to God for He is in control of every event.
