"Though you build high like the eagle, though you set your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down," declares the LORD.
The war we are waging with the Nations, including America, is taking place on the mountains of Israel. Clearly the prophets Zechariah & Joel speak about the Nations dividing the land and tossing lots for Jerusalem. Ninety-nine percent of Christians in America and around the world don't have a clue of what is going on. You're told by your worthless shepherds to run to Maryland and beg these dictators not to divide God's land and His holy city Jerusalem.
Another protest, another rally, just to feel good about your self righteousness! This is a disgrace to God! Read the Bible - when the siege is against Jerusalem - it's also against Judah. Judah says in his heart; "What a great support for us, are the inhabitants of Jerusalem." Zech 12
It's time to get out of your pews and your pagan shrines and stand with the mighty men of David in the land of Israel. Building Zion rather than appeasing the sons of darkness.
The state of Israel was formed because of men of valor- Men with a vision, who feared God and loved their fellow brother more than the dictators of this world.
They came from all different ethnic backgrounds; Europe, Morocco, Yemen, Egypt, Africa, Ethiopia, India, and America. They were Jews and foreigners who joined themselves to the Lord, compelled by the Holy Spirit to fulfill the word of God. They are living examples- modern day living characters of the Bible.
THE EXISTING CONFLICT
The existing conflict that we are dealing with is between Esau and Jacob.
"Two nations are in your womb; And two peoples will be separated from your body; And one people shall be stronger than the other; And the older shall serve the younger." Gen 25
Jacob was the stronger people and the prophecy is about to be fulfilled. It's our responsibility as Believers to encourage Jacob, give him the tools and support to build the Kingdom of God on the mountains of Zion.
As the Edomite government of Olmert continues to dispise his birthright, this is the reality, "Esau will be ransacked, and his hidden treasures searched out! All the men allied with him will send him forth to the border, and the men at peace with him will deceive him and overpower him."
The book of Obadiah is full of Esau's judgment as well as the judgment of the nations that stand against Jacob:
"Though you build high like the eagle, though you set your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down," declares the LORD.
For the day of the LORD draws near on all the nations as you have done, it will be done to you, your dealings will return on your own head.
"Because just as you drank on My holy mountain, All the nations will drink continually. They will drink and swallow and become as if they had never existed."
Jacob received the blessing from Isaac in Genesis 27:
"Now may God give you of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and an abundance of grain and new wine;
May peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you; be master of your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down to you cursed be those who curse you, and blessed be those who bless you."
Read all of Obadiah for the full prophecies regarding Esau.

THE CHURCH IN ISRAEL
The Western and European Church that has shown up here in the land of Israel, still lives in exile. Not because they are persecuted for righteousness, but because they still represent the idols they keep as they cross into the promised land.
The Church in Israel today that receives all your love and financial support hides behind their 4 walls of tradition, religion and philosophy. They are not building the land of Israel. They're not in Hebron, they're not in Shechem, they're not in Bet El, but instead they hide from reality. When the Jews are being evicted from their homes, like during the expulsion of Gush Katif, or when they're being beaten in Amona, or when they're being expelled from their stores and homes in Hebron, the local churches here call for a prayer conference.
They pray and pray and pray. Because they are so fearful to obey what the word of God says, which is not up in Heaven or down in Sheol, but right on the pages of the Bible, right on the lips of their mouth Deuteronomy 30:12-16.
They pray and pray and pray only to do NOTHING except co-exist.
Hollywood Christianity has come to Jerusalem with Cathedrals, prayer towers, shrines- but yet the Lion of the Tribe of Judah can be found outside the camp in the hills of Judea and Samaria in the hearts and minds of all of those who hear and obey His holy Word. These are servants fulfilling His covenants by living the Word of God and preparing to truly welcome Him home. With a sword in one hand they're fighting the enemy without and the enemy within- with the other hand they're laying the bricks, building the roads, and building Zion.
These are people who you never hear about and who stand in the gap for the entire Believing world. These are the mighty men of David.
