God: End the Arab occupation of West Bank, East Bank, and Gaza [Psalms 60 & 108]

The United Nations is mulling a Palestinian sponsored security council resolution demanding that Israel end the occupation of lands that the Arab/Palestinians claim as their own. Concurrently, the oil rich Arab League (e.g. Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Palestine, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, etc.) has voted to support this resolution.

The Palestinian resolution at the UN Security Council calls for setting a timeline for ending Israeli “occupation” and creating an Israel with indefensible borders. Ostensibly, the Arab League decision came following the recent Arab summit at Sharm e-Sheikh where the league found it an appropriate means to help the Palestinians achieve their “national rights.”

With mounting tensions between President Obama and the Nation of Israel, it is possible that a resolution like this may eventually pass the UN Security Council. However, the Israelis could never agree to abide by a resolution like this. It would greatly increase the existential threat they already face by the surrounding nations committed to their destruction by creating what they call "holocaust" borders.

In the grand scheme of things, Arab, Israeli, United Nations, and all of our opinions regarding Israel mean very little. The only opinion that matters in the end is God's. What does the God of the Bible say about Israeli borders? How does the God of the Bible view Arab grievances over "the occupation" or so called "stolen lands". In God's eyes, whose land is it, really?

Psalms 60 and 108 reveal that the land is God's, and he has given it to the children of Israel, not the Arabs. It is God himself who will "end the occupation", however it will not be Jews who are removed, but rather Arabs who are committed to Israel's destruction. Psalms 83, Isaiah 17, Jeremiah 49, and other verses in the bible reveal that a coming middle east war be fought not over the West Bank (Judea and Samaria), but over the East Bank (Jordan). The results will be devastating for the nations surrounding Israel...

Psalms 60:1 O God, thou hast cast us off , thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased ; O turn thyself to us again . 2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble ; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh . 3 Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment. 4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. 5 That thy beloved may be delivered ; save with thy right hand, and hear me. 6 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice , I will divide Shechem (West Bank), and mete out the valley of Succoth (Jordan River Valley). 7 Gilead (Northern Jordan) is mine, and Manasseh (Northern Jordan) is mine; Ephraim (West Bank) also is the strength of mine head; Judah (West Bank) is my lawgiver ; 8 Moab (Central Jordan) is my washpot * ; over Edom (Southern Jordan) will I cast out my shoe: Philistia (Gaza), triumph thou because of me. 9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom (Southern Jordan)? 10 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off ? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies? 11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. 12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

I find it fascinating to read how all those OT prophecies are being fulfilled and still so relevant today.

Once you get past the confusion of the different names and understand the geography, it’s clear how accurate and up to date all the prophecies are and watching them play out in front of us is interesting, to say the least.

Thanks for posting this.

Jesus’ analogy of “Birth Pains” is the best. The prophecies used to be few and far between (like Braxton-Hicks). Now they are many, close together, and very significant. Jesus is coming soon!

Amen and Amen.....

I’m ready.
