Tom says we are seeing a world raging, especially with hatred for Israel. Hatred for God’s people orchestrated by satan. Because they are God’s people, God’s nation. There are churches that believe God has abandoned the Jews and given the promises to the Gentiles, no, that is false. Seeing the love of many growing cold. Many say in the darkness it is a hard time to love. 

Gives verses about love.

1 John 4:18 “There is no fear in love but perfect love casts out fear. Because fear involves torment, but he who fears has not been made perfect in love.”

1 John 4: 12 “ No one has seen God at anytime. If we love one another God abides in us and His love has been perfected in us.” 

1 John 4: 7 “ Beloved, let us love one another for love is of God and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.” 

John 13: 34 “ A new commandment I give to you that you love one another as I have loved you, that you also love one another.”

1 Corinthians 16: 14 “ Let all that you do be done with love.’ 

We need to do that and be salt and light to the world. We need to look different than the world, show God’s love. We can hate the sin of October 7 but pray for the people as we wait for the rapture. For God to change hearts. Hating within the heart causes love to grow cold.

Comments: 

Prayed for his dad for 40 years and just before he passed away his dad trusted in Jesus. Tom says none of those prayers were waisted.

Praying for 45 years for God to send someone special to her husband to talk about salvation. Said he got sick 4 months prior to his death of cancer. God sent that special person to the hospital and he accepted Christ one week before he died. Almost been married for 45 years. Says now she has something to look forward to. 

Story of her unsaved grandma. Says she is 58 and remembers when she was 6 and her dad and grandpa and everyone in the church prayed for her unsaved grandma. One night at a revival in a quiet Wesleyan church says she saw her grandmother head to the altar like a woman on a mission. She hit to her knees at the altar and the lights went out that in an instant they flickered back on. There was her grandmother sprawled on the floor and the entire church was sobbing for joy. She received Jesus that night in a mighty way. Just a short time later she  unexpectedly passed away walking into her drs appointment. Not yet 60 years old. Says He is an on time God. 

Says always has a heavy heart for her Jewish family and always feeing hatred toward Hamas. Says as you comment Tom, she prayed to our Lord to help her love everyone. Says the 2 testimonies of the 2 Hamas fellows that gave their testimony to their transition to our Lord completely changed her heart and the Lord answered her prayer. Needed that so much. Says the Lord has answered many of her prayers through this channel and the wonderful brothers and sisters who pray for each other. Says God bless each and every one. 

Tom says thankful for all of you.

Tom says many say they sometimes feel they aren’t  good enough. Tom says we aren’t. If we were Jesus wouldn’t need to die. 

Tells about Jesus life, came to die, shed blood to rescue each person. Trust in what He did  for us and all we need to do to be saved and rapture ready is belong to Him. Reject Jesus and what He did will be lost for eternity.

Time is short, be saved today.
