ARC Israel Updates

Chaim begins with a description of the IDF entering Gaza with heavy machinery and his own work checking houses and bodies which were targeted by Hamas for booby traps and other hazards. He mentions that he hasn’t seen his wife and children in almost a month, and acknowledges that he’s tired, like so many others.

He says that when he’s on a mission he sometimes puts earbuds in and listens to praise and worship music to lift his mood amidst all the devastation he’s seeing. The “sheep” of the House of Israel are afraid, but he’s one of the shepherds with a rod and staff meant to comfort them.

He references the story of David and his men restoring the hostages that were taken by their enemies in 1 Samuel Chapter 30, and he also references the song of praise from Psalm 27:1-7;

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell. Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war may rise against me, in this I will be confident. One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple.

For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.

He concludes by encouraging his viewers to “take the Lord strategy” forward and follow it to victory, just as David did when he recovered the hostages and defeated the enemies who had come against him at Ziklag.

(Day 698) Swords of Iron – “Times Up H*mas”

Chaim starts out by talking about the threat to Israel of ballistic missiles fired by the Houthis in Yemen. He then moves on to talk about the terrorist who kidnapped Emily Damari and her friends, Ziv and Gali Berman, who was recently eliminated by the IDF in Gaza. He also talk about the necessity of continuing to hit Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, otherwise they’ll regroup, rearm and threaten northern Israel once again.

(Day 696) Swords of Iron – “Accidents or Miracles?”

Chaim starts by mentioning a Houthi ballistic missile that was fired at Israel in the middle of the night, but it broke apart in mid-flight and most Israelis didn’t even know about it because the defense systems and sirens didn’t even need to be activated.

(Day 695) Swords of Iron – “Honorable Burial”

Chaim starts by talking about the elimination of Abu Obeidah, the spokesman for Hamas who spewed hatred and contempt against Israel and the Jewish people for over two decades. At the same time, we’re mourning the 900th IDF soldier killed in action during this war, and many more who have been wounded.
