Israel at War: The Day of the Lord is Near: November 30, 2024
Obadiah 1:15
For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done (to Israel), it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.
About 30 years ago, I begin to preach about the Day of the Lord is Near as found in the Book of Obadiah. In my best selling book As America Has Done to Israel, I included a chapter about the Day of the Lord. The Day of the Lord is a reference in the Bible to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Obadiah gives a clear indicator to the immanent Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The key event is when Israel enters into an all-out battle with the Palestinians in which none of them survive.
I believe the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, and the subsequent war was the trigger for the battle described in Obadiah. This blog will keep you on the cutting edge of events leading to proving the Day of the Lord is Near and soon Second Coming of Jesus Christ. This can be proved by the Bible.
Obadiah 1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Hamas even named the attack and war they started. It was call: Operation Al Aqsa Flood! This means the Temple Mount in Jerusalem! All the wars triggered by Hamas’ attack are heading towards Jerusalem where God will bring his final judgment on Islam. Incredible events are soon about to unfold, but if you understand Bible prophecy you know how it is going to end.

Zechariah 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
ISRAEL: Latest Update (The * is for the latest postings)
*Biden spotted with book that accuses Israel of settler-colonialism, apartheid
From article:”Khalidi’s book, first published in 2020, presents a controversial perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The historian, known for his outspoken critiques of Israeli policies, describes Palestine’s modern history as “a colonial war waged against the indigenous population by various parties to force them to relinquish their homeland.” Khalidi’s framing has drawn both praise and criticism for its sharp departure from traditional narratives.
*Did the CIA know Hamas would attack Israel on Oct. 7?
From article:”There are hints U.S. intelligence was aware of a possibly imminent threat. Indeed, a few weeks after the Hamas attack, it was reported the U.S. intelligence community presented at least two assessments warning the Biden administration of an increased risk for Hamas attacks. It was also reported that several Arab sources warned the Biden administration and U.S. intelligence officials of a buildup of Hamas weapons and anger among Palestinians was set to explode. It was unclear if any of these U.S. assessments were shared with Israel.”
Amsterdam ‘Jew hunt’ triggers push for Dutch Jewish migration to Israel The Lord wants his people back in the land of Israel. The Muslims are his agents to get the Jews home for the end times prophecy.
From article:”Maaike Smole, a 48-year-old college policy worker from the central Dutch city of Amersfoort, no longer has any hope that there is a future for Jews in her country. “It’s too late. The Netherlands are schluss,” she said, using a Yiddish term for “closed,” or “over.” “Education has failed, integration [of Muslim minorities] has failed. Respect for us Jews has disappeared and will never come back. There are simply too few of us, the other side is so much larger and more aggressive. All that’s left to do is to count down to our aliyah,” Smole said, using the Hebrew term for immigration to Israel.”
Israel’s Thanksgiving Message: ‘Thank You to the United States of America’
From article:”Israeli government spokesman David Mencer wished the American people, and the U.S. government, a happy Thanksgiving, adding that the State of Israel was thankful for the enduring support of the American people. “We are very grateful for the ironclad commitment and friendship and union with the United States of America,” Mencer said. “They have stood by our side in difficult times and in good times, none more so than in the last 419 days.”
‘Palestinian’ Orthodox archbishop excoriates Huckabee, rejects ‘Christian Zionism’
From article:Huckabee stated,”“Zionism is a racist and terrorist movement responsible for the disasters and setbacks our people have faced”? Has the archbishop ever heard of Islamic jihad? Of course he has, but he doesn’t mention it at all, and is not known for calling it out. Why not? His people live among Muslims, and he knows they’ll be attacked if he says anything about jihad. He also knows that he can criticize Zionism all day long and he will not be in any danger for doing so.”
Israel Announces Ceasefire in Lebanon as a Gift to President Trump

The returning threat: How the IDF disabled Hezbollah’s ability to rearm – analysis
From article:”“We degraded Hezbollah’s launch capabilities, struck its strategic assets, eliminated its leadership, and damaged its command and control chain,” IDF Spokesperson R.-Adm. Daniel Hagari said Wednesday. “We have also targeted its ability to rearm and resupply, and we have severely disrupted its ability to carry out its planned infiltration into our territory – a plan it had meticulously prepared to carry out.”
Here’s how the US and Israel could thwart Iran’s nuclear efforts under a new Trump administration
From article:”Trump has said he does not want Iran to have nuclear weapons, but has not laid out how he would stop it from doing so. “I’m not looking to be bad to Iran, we’re going to be friendly, I hope, with Iran, maybe, but maybe not. But we’re going to be friendly, I hope, we’re going to be friendly, but they can’t have a nuclear weapon,” he said at a New Jersey press conference in August. Last month, Trump suggested Israel strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. Following the Iranian missile attacks, he suggested Israel should “hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later.”
37% of Senate Dems Voted for an Arms Embargo on Israel
From article:”Sen. Bernie Sanders, a socialist with a history of sympathizing with the USSR, Cuba and other Communist dictatorships, and of militantly opposing Israel and pandering to antisemites, introduced several resolutions to implement a partial arms embargo on Israel. Only 31 Senate Democrats voted against it. 19 voted for some of them. Sen. Tammy Baldwin did not vote. 37% of Senate Dems, more than a third, voted for an arms embargo on Israel. This is where the party is at.”
From article:”
- [A]fter 13 months of futile ceasefire negotiations, many Israelis appear to have trouble realizing that if Hamas and its backers, Iran and Qatar, so wished, the hostages would be home by now.
- If the priority of Israeli progressives were to rescue the hostages, they would demand that Hamas release them. “The slogan for freeing the hostages,” wrote British journalist Douglas Murray, “… should never have been ‘Being them home.’ It should be ‘Give them back.’ Now.”
- Murray has also noted that for years, the Biden administration has put all its efforts into trying to oust Netanyahu when it would probably have been better off putting all its efforts into ousting the Iranian regime.”
Turkey hosting Hamas signals resurgence of Muslim Brotherhood ideology
From article:”According to Israel’s Kan public broadcasting corporation, senior members of Hamas’s leadership relocated to Turkey following their recent expulsion from Doha. This report was confirmed by a senior Arab diplomat. These reports came after American sources confirmed that Qatar had expelled Hamas leadership, which had been hosted in the country since 2012. On Tuesday, Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari confirmed these reports at a press conference, stating, “The leaders of Hamas that are within the negotiating team are now not in Doha. What I can tell you very clearly is that the office of Hamas in Doha was created for the sake of the negotiating process. When there is no mediation process, the office itself doesn’t have any function.”
Haaretz publisher calls Palestinian terrorists ‘freedom fighters’ in newly revealed speech
From article:”In his October 8 speech, Schocken stated: “The Netanyahu government wants to continue and intensify illegal settlement in the territories that were meant for a Palestinian state. It doesn’t care about imposing a cruel apartheid regime on the Palestinian population. It dismisses the costs of both sides for defending the settlements while fighting the Palestinian freedom fighters that Israel calls terrorists.” “A Palestinian state must be established, and the only way to achieve this is by applying sanctions against Israel’s leaders and settlers in the occupied territories.”
Trump Team Already Preparing Steps to Challenge ICC
From article:”Actions have consequences. President-elect Donald Trump’s team is acting on that ethos and preparing to challenge the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague with sanctions after it initiated arrest warrants against Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.”
Hamas Must Be Defeated, Not Legitimized
From article:”The Biden administration chose to turn a blind eye to Abbas’s efforts to legitimize Hamas. The US offered it a lifeline. A terror group committed to the elimination of Israel should have no role in any Palestinian government — not in the West Bank and certainly not in the Gaza Strip. Such a group should be completely destroyed militarily and politically, and not invited to join any Palestinian government. As long as Iran’s regime remains in place, torturing both its own people and others… there regrettably will be no peace. That is the only way to secure a truly peaceful future, not only for Israelis but for Palestinians and the Free World.”
