I thought it could happen last summer. It now seems this summer may be the time. If either the EU or Iran use military force to aid “aid” ships to Gaza, there will be war. Bible students know what this war could mean.
Reports state that both Iran and EU reps are saying that the “flotilla” event will not happen the same way again.
Israel is saying that it will defend itself.
It appears that many are pushing the little land that God gave the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, into war.
How much verbiage is rhetoric and how much gets acted upon remains.
I have a Christian friend who knows of a believer who is living and ministering in Israel. The ministry is called “Love Without Boarders” and was started by one lady. She is on the ground in Israel, so I would consider this information a primary source. It is true that she is getting her information locally so one has to view it accordingly. The information is dated June 6th. I have put the intro at the end because a rearrangement puts material relating to my headline at the top.

Here is the Latest new “flotilla” info:
A great post by Gary Stearman of Prophecy in the News:
Beginning of Gog and Magog? – Concerning the incident this week which is
trying to give Israel bad publicity the Rabbinical Council issued an unusual
statement “We are at the beginning of Gog and Magog process where the world
is against us at first, but which ends with the third and final redemption.”
Gaza Tunnels – An estimated 1,000 tunnels are in use to smuggle various
black market goods as well as drugs and weapons. Several thousand young men
and boys are employed in the tunnels. Workers are paid $20 a day, according
to Arab media. Some tunnel operators say children are more likely than
adults to work hard even for the lower wage.
Israeli Sub deployed – Israel has allegedly deployed a permanent submarine
presence in the Persian Gulf to keep an eye on Iran, according to media
reports published Sunday. The three German-built submarines are reportedly
equipped with nuclear cruise missiles.
Syria Supports Hizbulla – Hizbullah terrorists are running weapons to
Lebanon from secret arms depots in Syria where the terrorists have been
accorded their own living quarters, arms storage site and a fleet of trucks,
Palestinians Boycott Israel – The Israel boycott by the Palestinian
Authority took on wider dimensions when Arabs burned two Arab stores for
allegedly doing business with Jews.
Hamas Refuses Flotilla Humanitarian Aid – Hamas continues to prevent the
transfer of the humanitarian aid which has been unloaded at the Kerem Shalom
crossing. The Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories
(COGAT) will continue to work closely with international bodies and the
Palestinian Authority in order to organize the transfer of the goods into
the Gaza Strip.
More Gas and Possibly Oil found in Israel – According to the Globes
financial journal, the field has been discovered to be even larger than
previously thought. The field’s estimated size has grown several times as
more surveys are conducted. Last year Teshuva, originally said the gas
reserves could allow Israel to be self-sufficient in energy for two decades,
but now it seems that was a conservative estimate. “The results indicate
that in addition to the gas, there are signs of oil at a greater depth. We
have turned Israel into a great energy power. Today is a holiday for every
citizen of Israel. It’s a day of joy,” The offshore platform will be imported from the gulf of Mexico.

Shalom!
Thanks for your prayers, the Lord answered and one of my co-workers returned to Israel to continue helping with the work.
I met with the Ministry of Tourism this week to share some information and thoughts so that Christians who are wanting to come to Israel can learn more, meet the people and serve during their tour. It was a productive meeting and he invited me to take a desk at the Ministry of Tourism and work from their office. It would not be practical for me, but it was an honor to be invited. I will continue to work with him and others on staff so that we can build a better understanding between Israel and Christians from abroad.
Israel is certainly a land of opportunity, but it is also a land of opposition. I guess that’s why we are told in 2 Timothy 2:3 You therefore endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. We are in a battle, wherever we are, but soldiers don’t quit in the middle of a battle. (I learned that from my dad who fought in both Korea and Viet Nam.) I believe the Lord wants us to be doers of the Word, pray for one anther and continue to move forward following and serving Him.
