Good morning! How are we faithing? A hiatus to gather thoughts and inflections. It has been interesting and thought provoking. Just about the time I needed to start writing again, October 7th happened in Israel and prophetic study resumed with fervor. I know we have talked before many times about end times and the times we live in and even though we had no idea of God's time table we were sure we needed to pay attention but when the war erupted in Israel our collective heads should stand up and take notice. here is something very interesting;

חָמָס

châmâs

khaw-mawce'

From H2554; violence; by implication wrong; by metonymy unjust gain: - cruel (-ty), damage, false, injustice, X oppressor, unrighteous, violence (against, done), violent (dealing), wrong.

Total KJV occurrences: 60

That is the Strong's concordance with the definition of what we see happening in Israel and isn't it interesting the perpetrators are named Hamas. look at these verses;

Gen 6:13  And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 

Gen 49:5  Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations

Psa 25:19  Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. 

Psa 55:9  Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city. 

Psa 74:20  Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.

Isa 53:9  And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. 

Those are just a few verses that use the word in the definition  above. Hamas is cruel, violent, false, unrighteous. I urge you to look up because our redemption draws nigh.\

Heavenly Father, We lift all the innocent people involved with the middle east who are and will suffer in this war. We lift the innocent in Ukraine and Russia for the same reason. Lord, we ask for wisdom and protection from those that would harm America. Lord we praise you. In Jesus name, amen
