We have reached Critical Mass, you cannot remain on the Sidelines; Stand Vocally, Publically, and Prayerfully for Israel

As we look across the landscape of the world, there are beautiful areas in every area of the world; mountains, beaches, rolling hills, islands and so much more! In this creation, there are more than 7 billion people that reside on the Earth. Why is it, with all of these people, of all the different areas of land, Israel is repeatedly in the news? To look even deeper; why is Jerusalem such a point of interest for the nations of the world? Why does this matter? This is God’s land and the Jewish people are God’s people. The Bible says in Joel 3:2 “I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.” As we read these words, we get a stark reality of the times that we are in when we look at the decisions that this current administration has done toward the State of Israel and the Jewish people.

Before this current administration even began, the platform at the Democratic National Convention did not recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. When former White House spokesman Jay Carney was directly asked what the administration recognizes as the capital of Israel, he effectively avoided giving an answer, twice. We cannot forget the perspective that Susan Rice, United States National Security Advisor, shared regarding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s upcoming visit to Congress while speaking with Charlie Rose, “it’s destructive of the fabric of the relationship”. When Israeli journalist, Caroline Glick, was interviewed by Glenn Beck, he asked her what the Israeli people’s perspective was on America. Her response highlights the sobering reality that we’re walking through right now.

On March 3rd, Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu will be travelling to

the United States to speak to Congress. This is a critical juncture. Church, we have a responsibility to stand with the Jewish people, to stand with Benjamin Netanyahu and to stand with Israel. What will we do? To refuse to make a choice is to make a choice. The time for silence cannot endure any longer. It is time for us to be bold in our allegiance for Israel and for God. Hear the beacon call of what is taking place and so much more. Also shared in this segment: Jerusalem, DNC, Charlie Rose, Susan Rice, missiles, Iran, Glenn Beck, Caroline Glick, Valerie Jarrett, ABC, Tripoli, Radical Islam, ISIS, France, Brigitte Gabriel, Sid Roth, prophetic words, Presidential Elections, Hurricane Sandy, World War III, repentance, and prayer. Greg and John shared in this segment.

Did National Security Adviser, Susan Rice, Really say that P.M. Netanyahu speaking to Congress is “Destructive of the Fabric” of U.S. and Israel’s Relationship?

Since the birth of the State of Israel in 1948, America has always been the strongest ally of Israel. Presently, a vastly different approach to how America responds to Israel is being played out. According to Susan Rice and recent Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, the usurping of the American Embassy in Libya and the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens was not because of terrorism, but because of a video that was made. In an interview with Charlie Rose, regarding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to speak at the U.S. Congress, Susan Rice stated, “it’s destructive of the fabric of the relationship”. No, that is not correct. There was a day when the leadership of America was as bold to protect their nation as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is as bold to protect the peace and safety of Israel. By not understanding our history, we will disconnect from the importance and imperativeness of our allegiance with Israel. Hear the full story, why we must stand with Israel, and so much more.

We Didn’t Just Get Here. Is America’s Colonization of the Philippines Responsible for the Abject Poverty and the Sexual Victimization of Filipino Children in the Philippines?

While on a global trip to view the 100 wonders of the world, one man shares his stories as to what he encountered when he visited the nation of the Philippines. While walking through the streets and markets, he came across a little lonesome girl walking with a jug of filthy water. After asking the locals around her where her parents were, he learned that her mother was killed while in prostitution, the father was nowhere to be found, ultimately leaving this small child to fend for herself. From a distant nation, one may react with shock and surprise wondering how such poverty could exist amidst all that is available in today’s world. When we take a deeper look, a revealing story of our history comes into light.

One of America’s previous President’s, Teddy Roosevelt, was in leadership when America played a major role in the cause and effects of the Philippines future. During the late 1800’s Spain ruled over the Philippines and fighting broke out in the Philippines against American forces. America viewed this as rebellion. Within the Spanish- American War, during the Battle of Manila Bay, America surmised to colonize the Philippines for fear that if America didn’t, Germany or Spain would. Should America have messed with their government? The mindset of one bullying their way into another in order for decisions to be made, may be a mindset of the world, but it is not to be a mindset of the Church. But, how do we respond to this little girl with the filthy jug of war today matters. It matters to this little girl and it matters to God. In Matthew 25:45, Jesus said “whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.” As the church, we can respond today, not as the nations of the world would do, but as we are called to do for the Kingdom of God. Allow your faith to be stirred as you see how you can empowered, not only where you are, but in the entire world, and so much more.

Is Net Neutrality, the gateway drug to the beast economy spoken of in Revelations Chapter 13:11-18 by tracking everyone, everything and the world’s economy?

When people begin a new product, install new software, or download a new app, often times there is a product agreement or license to read first before permission is granted for us. Often times, we don’t read through these. Only after a few clicks we can begin use. The decisions that we make matter. The words that are being used today, ex: “Net Neutrality”, some might not be aware of what that entails. It’s important to rewind the history a few decades prior and look closely at the Holocaust. Under the tyrannical oppression of Adolf Hitler, more than 6 million Jews were exterminated, strictly for their faith. Before these massacres were carried out, Hitler demised a way to track every individual he intended to murder: tattoos.

With today’s technology, it’s quite easier to track every individual. With each and every item having a specific URL address assigned, everything can be monitored. In a Blaze interview with Mark Cuban, Cuban shares a business perspective of what the outcome of Net Neutrality could result in. As the church, our mindset cannot be a business mindset. Our decisions cannot be motivated by comfort and convenience. Find out what the Word of God says about the days that we are living in, what we should be looking out for, and so much more.

Is the Answer to Radical Islam – Jobs and Employment as the State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf suggest? Is it about Organizing a Global Workforce?

Seeing the actions of the ISIS and Radical Islam in the world’s headlines is nothing new. But, when we consider the possible resolutions that are being discussed about such evil, the need for jobs would not necessarily be on top of the list of eradicating evil terrorism from spreading in the world. According to Inquisitor.com, Marie Harf, Spokesperson to the White House, in an MSNBC discussion stated, “But we cannot win this war by killing them. We cannot kill our way out of this war. We need in the medium to longer term to go after the root causes that leads people to join these groups, whether it’s lack of opportunity for jobs. We can work with countries around the world to help improve their governance. We can help them build their economies so they can have job opportunities for these people.” Does that mean if jobs were present, possibly the beheading of 21 Christians on the shores of Tripoli would not have happened? This appears to be exactly opposite of the reality when we look at one particular man, Alton Nolen. It’s important to connect the dots. According to Fox News, Alton Nolen was an employee at Vaughan Foods and was later fired because of an argument that erupted with a coworker after discussions of trying to get other coworkers to convert to Islam. These events resulted in two women being attacked and ultimately one of them being beheaded. We see the same actions when we look at the shooting that took place in Fort Hood.

If we turn our back on God, He will lift His hand from us. We cannot turn from the acknowledgement of God and think that we will not experience repercussions in our nation. The answer is not employment, it is not more jobs, it is not an economical answer; it has always been Jesus Christ. In major metropolitan areas, some people can live their entire lives within a few blocks, never encountering the people outside of specific areas. If we were to focus on only one nation, then we would be limiting our view to just the blocks within that one nation. We cannot become focused on the culture or the economy of one nation. We are called to advance God’s Kingdom into all nations. Find out the significance of how our lives can effectively impact the world by changing how we view the world, and so much more.

The Four Blood Moons: Third of the Fourth Blood Moon is upon us. What does it mean for Israel and the Nations that come against her?

In this present moment, we are in the middle of 4 Blood Moons, with the 3rd coming April 4th. To come before this 3rd blood moon is a solar eclipse that will take place March 20th, 2015. These are fragile days and we must understand what is taking place to know how to respond. This is not the first time 4 Blood Moons shouted from the skies. In the past 500 years it has happened 3 times: in 1492, in 1948 and again in 1967. What some may not realize is the common denominator that is threaded throughout each of these monumental events. It even connects to what the world is presently witnessing today: Israel.

In 1492, a Jewish explorer was given the funding to find a new land because of the oppression the Jewish people were experiencing at the time. The explorer was Christopher Columbus and the land that he found was America. The Jews were being oppressed, but they found a home. In 1948, Israel’s Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion, made a declaration making known the State of Israel and its birth. Eleven minutes later as these words echoed throughout Israel, President of the United States Harry Truman contacted Israel expressing that the full backing of America supports Israel. Again, 4 blood moons were stretched across the skies during this powerful moment. In 1967, Israel fought the Yom Kippur war. A war that provided victory after victory for Israel, revealed to the surrounding nations and the world that God was defending Israel.

This brings credible insight as to the significance of when President Obama stated that Israel needed to go back to the 1967 lines. These were indefensible borders. When Secretary of State, John Kerry warns Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of a third Intifada, this is not good. We cannot threaten or poke Israel, the apple of God’s eye, and expect their not to be repercussions. At the beginning of our current presidency at the Democratic National Convention, the platform was originally established to not recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. God is speaking to us. God is warning us. What will we do with this warning? What will we do with Israel? How will we respond? Hear the intricate details of how Israel is woven into these events, into what is taking place, how we must respond, and so much more. Also shared in this segment: John Paul Jackson, John Hagee, Swastikas, racism, anti-Semitism, CBN, France, Iran, nuclear enrichment, Secretary of State John Kerry, ISIS, ABC News, Rudy Giuliani, Kamal Saleem, NASA, Intifada, and dreams. Greg and John shared in this segment.

Prophetic Warning: Has it begun? Civil Unrest, Terrorist Attacks, and an American Uprising? It’s time to prepare and turn our hearts to God.

The symphony of prophetic words that have been shared throughout the Body of Christ and those shared here on VFNtv are coming to a crescendo. Job 33:15-18 highlights the truth that God does speak, “in a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, as they slumber in their beds, he may speak in their ears, and terrify them with warnings, to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride, to preserve his soul from the pit, his life from perishing from the sword.” Pat Robertson shares about a letter that he received from a pastor highlighting the threats that could happen in America in the upcoming days.

When Utah’s Representative Jason Chaffetz pressed about the details of possible apprehensions by those crossing America’s borders, United States Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson expressed his lack of awareness of the accuracy of reports and the credence to give them. Yet, when discussing later about the same issue, Johnson shares that we are in a new season regarding our borders and his concern. What is going on? The prophetic warning shared by Rick Joyner and Morningstar Ministries rings a louder, resounding beacon of warning as we see the events of America’s borders unfolding.

When we see these types of events unfolding in America, it is important for the church to pay attention and turn their ears to the prophetic warnings that are speaking in details of what is coming, lest we turn back to God. The next 30-60 days are integrally important. What will we do? Will we continue living as though tomorrow will be just like today, or will we heed the voice of the Lord and respond? Hear the details of these warnings and what is being said, and so much more. Also shared in this segment: CBN, MSNBC, dreams, Rick Joyner, The Mall of America, borders, diabolical cruelty, Jordanian Pilot burned, Caliphate, Kamal Saleem, al shabaab, Constitution, 2nd Amendment, militias, and Radical Jihadists. Greg and John shared in this segment.

It All Makes Sense if he Credits Islam for his Presidency?

America is a land of laws and throughout its history, there have been leaders who have led this land. Presidents of our past, from the beginning of George Washington, have each stood for something. Past presidents have stood for the values of Christianity. This makes sense considering America is a Judeo-Christian nation. The values of America is built upon the values of the Jewish and Christian faiths. According to President Obama, he has stated that America is no longer a Christian nation.

Each President has had their particular beliefs and values they have embraced. Varying groups will support particular nominees in hopes they will become the next President. What values does President Obama stand for? Who has helped him into the office of the Presidency? Has President Obama embraced Islam? This can be a possibility when we look at just a few events on the timeline since he began running for President: stating that America is no longer a Christian Nation, beginning the Democratic platform at the Democratic National Convention by not recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, repeatedly speaking to Muslim audiences during the Apology Tour, and a senior advisor, Valerie Jarret, who according to Charisma News, has stated, "I am an Iranian by birth and of my Islamic faith. I am also an American citizen and I seek to help change America to be a more Islamic country. My faith guides me and I feel like it is going well in the transition of seeing freedom of religion in America against itself."

During one of his first Presidential speeches, President Obama stated at Cairo University, “I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.” We have to be honest; past Presidents have embraced certain groups. This is the first President that appears to be openly promoting Islam. God is in control. In a Fox News interview, Franklin Graham shines the light of truth about the perspective that the White House appears to be missing. “It seems as though they want to believe a lie, that everything is OK when it’s not OK.”

We cannot embrace both Islam and Christianity. We cannot embrace both Mohammed and Jesus Christ. To acknowledge Mohammed is to deny Jesus Christ. To acknowledge Jesus Christ is to deny Mohammed. It is as simple as that. We cannot serve both. What choice are we going to make? Hear more of the details of what is taking place and what Jesus said about these times, and so much more.
