well I want to welcome you to a very

special edition of Kingdom connection we

are in a very special place recently the

Lord blessed us with a new campus and we

are in the process of getting that open

and one of the is in the area of

Alpharetta by the way if you’re in that

area we’d love for you to check it out

and this is the first time that we have

ever been on this campus preaching the

Gospel of Jesus Christ and it’s pretty

pretty remarkable pretty moving and

you’re going to get a personal message

normally I’m preaching in front of our

church and you know to our campuses but

I invited some special friends and and

uh folks that are part of our ministry

to come and as I watch the news as

you’ve watched the news my heart has

been so heavy for the nation of Israel

and for the war that is taking place for

the Palestinian people in Harm’s Way the

women the children the Christian

brothers that I know and have over there

and have people that I have done

business with as I’ve gone over there in

the shops and everything else and taken

literally thousands of people to to

visit the nation of Israel I’ve

developed longtime relationships with

people Palestinian people Arab people

who I know today need our prayers we

stand with Israel but we pray for the

light of the gospel and the love of God

to shine to all men and I even pray for

the terrorist that they would see Jesus

real fast and go to heaven amen if

they’re not ready and I do believe that

that he who guards Israel will not

Slumber or

sleep I want to talk to you again today

about why we stand with Israel

and why we believe that you need to

understand a Biblical worldview

concerning the nation of Israel

Deuteronomy 7 and verse 6 remember again

what God says about natural Israel he

says about spiritual Israel his church

every one of these words are love words

toward this is under the old Covenant

but we’re under according to Hebrews a

new and better Covenant by the blood of

Jesus Christ we have we are now part of

that blessing and in Deuteronomy 7 and

verse 6 for you are listen to this he’s

speaking to the nation of Israel and to

the Jewish people for you are a holy

people to the Lord your God the Lord

your God listen to these words has

chosen you to be a part for himself a

special

treasure that’s what God says over you

too he says it over the nation of Israel

and you better hear it you better hear

it Iran you better hear it Hamas you

better hear it Hezbollah you better hear

it haters of

Israel God says that nation and that

people are a special treasure above all

the people of the earth verse 7 he said

the Lord did not set his love on them

nor choose them because they were more

in number than any other people for you

were the least of all the

people now that’s our testimony that’s

my testimony I don’t feel like I have a

right to be preaching to you I don’t

know why God has given me the pull pit

that he has because I am the least and

probably the least qualified the least

in every way except God

chose and he chose you and he chose you

and he chose you and he chose you that’s

why you’re watching this

program God doesn’t love us because

we’re

valuable we’re valuable because God

loves us and if God be for us who can

stand against

us Israel is a special

people and God commands us to not only

love the land of Israel the Holy Land

Jerusalem and Capernaum and the Sea of

Galilee and and and all of the Bethlehem

and all of the

beautiful places of history and biblical

fulfillment but he commands us not and

he talked about in those verses not just

the land of Israel but the people of

Israel the Jewish people God has

sovereignly chosen

Israel as his people

Israel is a nation that is God created

it is God decreed it is God loved it is

God called Israel is God elected and

Israel is God

protected they are a special special

people and as for natural Israel the

same as for you the same is for me

praise the Lord he chose me I didn’t

choose him and when you understand that

you it ought to make you pray maybe

everything’s not going like you wish it

was was going in your life but you’re

still Chosen and everybody God ever

chose in the Bible went through Seasons

of Loneliness and pain and went through

seasons of crisis in their families and

went through in incredible times of of

Challenge and didn’t know what they were

going to do or where they were going to

turn that doesn’t mean you’re not chosen

because you go through tribulation and

you go through hard times matter of fact

fact if I were the devil I’d fight you

more than I fought the average person

because you are

chosen Israel secondly is not just a

special people but they have a very

special purpose listen to this Isaiah 43

and: 7 God has chosen Israel for his

glory they are a special people with a

very special purpose to glorify God to

show the world that he chooses the least

and he takes the

most likely to

fail the odds are stacked against you

the person in the back of the line the

person that other people Overlook the

the person that other people say is

trash God says there’re special treasure

and I will raise them and I will bless

them and I will use them and the secret

the secret sauce to their life will be

Jesus

is the center of my life and he gets all

the

glory god made a covenant with one Jew

named Abram changed his name to

Abraham I want to tell you thirdly that

Israel is not only a special people and

they have a special purpose but they are

under special

protection and I don’t care what MSNBC

says I don’t care what ABC says and I

don’t care what CNN says or anybody on

Fox news says or anybody out there in a

university or some Professor or some

crazy politician who berates and is

anti-Semitic I tell you God protects the

nation of Israel you better hear it

United Nations and you better hear it

Iran and you better hear it Hamas and

you better hear it hos God himself has

an

angel the most powerful Waring angel

named

Michael and he said I assign this is in

Daniel 8 this is in Daniel The Book of

Daniel chapter n he says I assigned that

angel to defend that Nation I don’t want

to fight against an angel because one of

them in the Old Testament slew

185,000 Assyrians in one night when they

came against the nation of

Israel that’s the only way you explain

why Israel is still in existence today

because they have been threatened many

many times but they’re under special

protection God actually says this in

Jeremiah 31 and verse

35 he says and I’m going to just sum it

up but he says in order to destroy the

Jews you would have to destroy the power

that regulates the Sun the moon and the

stars and when you can do that when you

can destroy the universe itself then you

can destroy Israel because God said he

who watches and keeps Israel Psalms 121

will not Slumber and will not sleep and

I tell you that ought to make you

rejoice because I don’t know what you’re

going through but God has not forgotten

about you he’s watching over you over

your family you may be walking through

the valley of the shadow of death but

God says I am with you and no weapon

formed against you Israel natural Israel

and spiritual Israel give me a big amen

that’s you no weapon formed against you

shall prosper every tongue that rises

up sometimes the greatest weapon that

will come against you is people’s

tongues but he said it will not Prosper

he didn’t say it wouldn’t be formed he

didn’t say you wouldn’t be attacked but

he said it will not ultimately Prosper

cuz I’ve got Divine special protection

over my

own you cannot destroy God’s people and

their purpose they are protected

fourthly Israel is a very special place

I’ve been there many many

times so many times I don’t know how

many I was there this

year something’s happening in the world

folks something’s happening in the

church something’s happening among young

people something there’s a stirring

going on this is no time for church as

usual this is no time for Christian TV

as usual I’m I’m telling you you better

be ready Jesus is coming again you

better get right backslider they’re

preachers kids that are watching me

right now and you don’t know why you’re

watching somebody’s sitting there with a

bottle of liquor in your house and

you’re drunk but you’re watching

me by the grace of God it could be me

but by the grace of

God and I’m telling you Now’s the Time

to come back home this thing we we need

to be ready we need to be living at high

alert I believe in life I believe you

ought to plan like you got a

hundred-year vision go to school get

your education get married have babies

live it up have a wonderful time enjoy

life but keep an urgency keep a passion

keep a fire down in you in the parable

of the 10 virgins that Jesus taught

about his

return all of them knew he was the

bridegroom was coming all of them knew

it but they all fell

asleep a lot of people in the body of

Christ have fallen to

sleep many have not returned since

Co thank God that’s not true at our

church but I hear it from my other

friends and in that Parable what is so

astounding is Jesus said Jesus had just

told in Matthew 24 one two will be

working in the field one will be taken

one will be left behind Jesus himself

preached the Rapture I don’t understand

why preachers can just see the news and

see all that is happening and never get

up and go right on with her little

outline as though about how to have a

better this and that when we really need

to turn our hearts to God there are

seasons When God Says Rend your hearts

and not your garments I I want you to I

want you to get brutally honest and

search your heart and and know where you

stand with me that’s what God is saying

saying repent and he’s saying come home

and get right these are not normal

days and in that Parable that Jesus he

did a whole chapter chapter 24 is

nothing but Jesus sermon on end time

prophecy the whole chapter every

word and then immediately in verse one

of chapter 25 he goes into the parable

of the 10 virgins and how they all fell

asleep and 10 of them had oil in their

lamps or or had five of them had oil in

their lamps lamps and five of them did

not and the only reason that I can find

why Jesus told that Parable he said when

the bridegroom came in the Midnight Hour

when they weren’t looking for

him five of them were ready and five of

them were not ready

and the only reason that Jesus told that

Parable was he was saying it is possible

when I return for my bride that there

will be people who would who will think

they are ready but in reality

50% in Jesus own end time sermon he said

50% are not there they know I’m coming

they know who I

am but they are not ready for my soon

return not only is Israel a special

people and a special purpose under

special

protection but it is a special

place God put his people in a special

place I would encourage you if you I

don’t know if we’ll ever get to go back

to the Holy Land ain’t that

something I don’t know I don’t know if

I’ve been over there for the last

time but if you ever get a chance to go

and you get out on the Sea of Galilee

and it hits you this is where he walked

on the

water you go to cai’s house and you

realize he was here the steps date back

to the very time when Jesus would have

been wounded and beaten and slapped and

the beard plucked from his face and the

crown of thorn shoved on his

skull the whipping

post and you stand there and you you go

to those sites you go to the upper room

and you realize I’m in

Jerusalem and I think it’s so

significant that the word Jerusalem is

spelled j r and right in the middle of

it is u a

Lim

LM God help America USA to always stand

with Jerusalem and Israel and it’s a

special place and God said in Genesis 12

and

verse3 I will bless those that bless

Israel and I will curse those that curse

Israel and I pray to God that all of the

church the body of Christ and all of

you will never fail to defend the land

of

Israel if you’re going to become School

teachers if you’re going to become

politicians if you’re going to become

leaders in the world that God puts you

in always stand with Israel and stand

for the people of Israel and pray for

the people of Israel does that mean we

don’t love Palestinian we don’t love

Arabs no no no we love them we pray for

them we send support we’re working on

something even now to help but we know

biblically we are to stand firm with the

nation of Israel why because it’s a

special place think about this in

closing God took out of the whole

earth he found one land and he called it

my holy

land and then out of that Nation he

found one

city and it was nothing but a

mountain the same place where Abraham

raised a knife in willing

obedience and was going to stab his

son

Isaac and he heard a voice say stay your

hand guess where was it was on that

hill and God said in that same place

where he started the Covenant with God

said now I

know I can trust you now I know and you

know during that time biblically I don’t

know if you have ever realized this the

way the way that they worshiped in that

area the heathens is they would offer

their firstborn in

Fire and he went up there put the wood

on his boy’s back the Bible said the lad

carried the

wood he’s climbing up Mount Calvary of

tight the Bible said that as he goes it

took him three days to get to the top to

climb the mountain three days three days

three days in the father’s mind the son

was dead he knew why he was going up

there and when he raised the hand

and was about to stab Isaac a picture of

Jesus Christ on Calvary a voice said

stay your hand but the next time the

Fulfillment of that happened in a city

that that same

Hill would be called Calvary now in the

same

vicinity the father did not

say I’m going to let the cup

pass but this time you’re the Lamb of

God

and by the way he told Abraham the

reason I want you not to kill that son

is I have a ram caught in the

thicket I’ve got the

sacrifice the Bible say I have

prepared himself

myself that’s what it says in the text

if you read in the King James he said I

prepared myself

around that’s that’s in the Old

Testament But Here Comes Jesus God in

skin and he dies on the cross in a place

called Jerusalem on a hill and God says

that’s my Hill that’s my city that’s my

land that’s my

nation now I want to conclude

this there is

coming I believe very

soon a call from

heaven for the church to be raptured and

taken to be with the Lord and while we

are raptured and called away and I know

there’s a lot of people these you know

they debate we’ll be raptured mid Trio

which would be you know three and a half

years after the Great Tribulation in

order for that to happen the Antichrist

has to reveal himself I personally am a

preacher of

preacher I I believe believe and I like

what uh old Bishop Tenny used to say he

said I’m a pan Trio I said what is that

he said it’ll all pan out just like God

wants it

too but you know what I I’ll put it like

this if you don’t have enough to take

you up you don’t have enough to take you

through so you better be ready we better

be prayerful people you go to Israel

natural Israel you go to the Wailing

Wall the eastern wall and they are

praying people you will see those rabbis

praying you will see them bring their

children down you they pray one of my

favorite things is to be in Jerusalem

and I’ll go down sometimes with always

go with someone or go go with people and

we’ll we’ll go down sometimes at 1:00 at

night to the Wailing Wall and it’ll be

filled 24 hours a day it never stops

prayers and just like natural Israel we

are to be a prayerful

people they’re prepared

too even the young teenagers at the age

of 18 all of them go into the military

male female and all of them

go and you will see beautiful uh Israeli

girls and handsome young men who look

just like our teenagers look except

they’re in uniforms and they’re carrying

M16s and ar9s and they they have their

weap all day long they’re

prepared everybody is a soldier in

Israel nobody is on vacation right now

they’re calling up all ages right now

and this is your wakeup

call are you

sounds in Australia in South Africa in

India in South America in Europe

moment in the twinkling of an eye we

a fire station for the esal region in

southern Israel near

Gaza last year Pastor Jensen visited

with the kabut of kareim Shalom to

dedicate one of our shelters with the

community there

this Village could not be any closer to

the border with Gaza the head of esal

security Keith isacon showed us the

proximity of the wall and even allowed

us to peer through to the other side on

Saturday October 7th at this exact

location Hamas broke through the border

and entered Israel what you’re seeing

now is footage Israeli Defense Forces

recovered from the body of a Hamas

terrorist we built these shelters with

the intention of shielding the Israelis

from rocket attacks we could never

imagine how God would use them

shelters protected some families long

enough for the Israeli Defense Forces to

regain control of the area and rescue
