Day 209 Swords of Iron – “Isaiah 19”

Chaim starts the video by reminding his viewers that he’s deployed in the south of Israel, that there’s a lot going on near the border with Gaza, as well as the border with Egypt.

But then he switches track and says that when he saw the Egyptian border, it made him think about the prophecy from Isaiah 19, that there will be a highway from Egypt, through Israel to Assyria. Chaim says he wonders when that prophecy will be fulfilled.

He says that people have to make a choice if they want a fascist terror regime like Hamas to be standing in the way of this prophecy, or if they want a shepherd to take his stick and remove this danger. Chaim says the IDF is poised to take that shepherd stick and remove the threat, and at the same time, they’ll be removing an obstacle to peace.

He invites his viewers to form a prayer group to pray for a miracle to happen in this war.

He encourages the viewers to also pray for themselves and pray for the heroes of Israel.

He gives an example of a blessing he’s praying over himself, Psalms 84:5-7; Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a spring; The rain also covers it with pools. They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion.

He says he believes in these promises and that God is redeeming Israel, and he concludes by counting the 9th day of the Omer.
