Day 413 Swords of Iron – “What is right and what is wrong”

Chaim starts out the video by warning about a “ring of fire” that could surround Israel if the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan falls to either Iran or Jihadist forces. But he then sings a few chords from an old song about victory in the Lord and he says that it’s not only by being “fearful” or even alert that one stays safe. Victory comes through being part of a team of warriors that advance bravely and resolutely on all fronts.

He says that this even includes showing courage in the face of rockets being fired at the homes where our families live, and he asks rhetorically if that’s okay for rockets to be fired at civilian homes.

Chaim says that the proof of what happens when the shepherds don’t stand in the gap on behalf of the sheep is all around us. The Hamas attacks against Israel on October 7th 2023 were supposed to be accompanied by similar attacks from Hezbollah in the north. But by the grace of God, the IDF was able to confront these attacks and drive the enemy back.

Now the International Criminal Court is issuing warrants for the arrest of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Chaim says that’s not right.

In this context, he quotes Isaiah 54:17; No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me,” says the Lord.

Chaim asks his viewers to share the videos and otherwise speak up for truth in righteousness. He says that the IDF, and Israel in general, are trying to defend the defenseless and be a refuge for those who need safety. He says that in particular, the Aliyah Return Center is seeking to be a light in the darkness and a refuge for new immigrants in Galilee. This is in obedience to the Lord and in fulfillment of His prophecies.

In this context, Chaim quotes Isaiah 49:22; Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations, and set up My standard for the peoples; They shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;

Chaim says that over 1 million Jewish immigrants are on their way to the Holy Land and the ARC is just getting ready to do our part to care for them. He also says that as this war winds down, the IDF is looking for ways that it can patrol Gaza and southern Lebanon to see the best way to protect Israel from Hamas and Hezbollah and to keep the border areas safe, but also to keep the civilians of Gaza and Lebanon safe.

The efforts to return Israel’s hostages also continue, alongside efforts to pursue a cease-fire in Lebanon that would see the war end on terms favorable to Israel.

Chaim asks his viewers to do their part by helping the Aliyah Return Center purchase thermal drones for IDF units who need them in order to do their jobs better and in a more safe way. He thanks his viewers for whatever other kind of help they can send at this time.

He concludes by quoting some of his favorite Bible verses starting with Isaiah 41:10; Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Also Psalms 46:1-4; God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
