May 9, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – Israel does not need the US!

This is the day the Lord has made.  We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Tom  says I have a lot to cover today, don’t have time to make a snack suggestion but if I did would say pasta with Alfredo sauce, cold glass of ice water with lemon!

Scriptures about listening –

Swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath!  What good words to put into practice.

Luke 11:28. Blessed are those who hear the Word of God and keep it.   James 1:22 be doers of the Word and not hearers only.   Matthew 7:24 Jesus is the rock the wise man builds on that hears what Jesus says and does them.

Romans 10:17 “So faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.”

News –

Tom is seeing this administration turning their back on God’s nation, God’s people.

Biden in an interview with CNN says US will not supply Israel with aid to invade Rafah if its military goes through a full invasion of Rafah.  It was said just after  Austin said the shipment was paused.

Beginning of Sorrows telegram – Biden said it is working with Arab countries that are ready to transition to 2 state solution and ready to rehabilitate the Gaza Strip regarding Rafah.  Said Israel has not yet crossed the red line. Comments Iran, who is running the war behind the scenes, perceives Israel strength mainly around the relations with the US.  Said what Biden did was an event that will be very difficult to correct.

Breitbart – Biden says US is walking away from Israel’s ability to wage war in areas they don’t cross the line.  In interview with CNN Biden said promises of transfers of bombs and artillery shells to Israel if they go into Rafah population centers is not walking away from Israel’s security but walking away from Israel’s ability to wage war in those areas.  They withheld the weapons  even though Israel has not entered those areas yet.

Jack Hibbs says this may prove to be an unnecessary self inflicted wound.  A tragic moral decision made by this administration against the nation of Israel and her right to exist and protect itself.  The message this sends to the world is this: America has no stomach for self-defense which leaves us terribly vulnerable as a nation.  Regarding Israel God will not take this lightly.  

Israel Today –  senior Israeli official’s response to Biden’s threat to withhold ammunition. Says  we have enough means to enter Rafah and occupy it without American assistance.  Rafah will be occupied in any case.  The main problem is the message it sends to Hezbollah and Iran.  That Israel will apparently come without weapons to the conflict in the north.  Biden made a grave mistake both morally and physically.

From Amir. President said to CNN,  if Israel invades Rafah we will not supply it with bombs for the airplanes, artillery shells and other offensive weapons.  Amir said Biden is more dedicated to the preservation of Hamas than the survival of Israel.

Tom says IDF hasn’t gone into Rafah but small operations.  Probably looking for Sinwar and hostages.

IDF is dismantling terror infra-structure in Rafah to eliminate Hamas and dismantle the infr-structure in East Rafah.

Western Journal – Israel officials say they “got played” by Biden Administration in Hamas ceasefire talks.  Said they were tricked by Biden administration not letting them know the details of the ceasefire Hamas agreed to on Monday. Biden administration denies the claim.    Biden also discusses with the King of Jordan about a path to a Palestinian State and a secure Israel.

Amir says the obsession of this administration for Palestinian state is rather the best way not to give Israel security.  

Tom  says God will see to it Israel will not be divided, no 2 state solution.

Syrian report says Israel Air Force is firing from the direction of Golan heights at several targets in Damascus.

Jerusalem Post – Iran wants a perfect storm to threaten Israel with proxies which hasn’t happen like it wants.   The Houthis are used to attack ships, Iraq tries drones but usually fail before they get to Israel.

Times of Israel – Galant warns of trouble in the north coming as Hezbollah attacks IDF post.  

Jerusalem Post – UN General assembly is expected to upgrade Palestinian Statehood status Friday.  While the UN can’t formally grant membership the vote can grant Palestinians similar rights.  UN expected to upgrade the Palestinian status granting it almost all statehood rights short of allowing it to vote.  UAE is expected to submit a resolution calling on UN Security Council to grant Palestinian full membership status in UN even though they are not a nation. Unbelievable.

Insider Paper – Death count from flooding in Brazil reached 100.  Pray.

Newsweek – tornado threats continue today.  For Thursday, watches are over Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia – Pray.

Last 24 hour earthquakes 24 over 4.0, 5 over 5.0.

Daily Mail – Videos of a never seen before craft flying over California, Utah, Nevada and Arizona.  They report a glowing hazy orb that disappeared into thin air.

Clown World – 

CNBC – generative AI will be designing new drugs all on its own in the near future.  Eli Lilly Company says in a few years it may even come up with new drugs humans could not create.

Another – Russia reveals it has begun to build a nuclear power plant that could be put on the moon, a joint project with China.  

Tom says we are ready to go Home. 

Testimony and comments – 

After watching for so many years feels like He’s waiting in the clouds.  So many feeling it but we have to do the hard thing now, be patient. Tom agrees.

Praying for protection on IDF soldiers and all fighting this war and release of remain hostages.

Says she’s Polish, Jewish, a child of God and knows He will be sending Jesus to call us home.  Until then says she knows God will continue to protect.  Need to be alert though as satan is prowling around much more in these last days. The attacks more intense and frequent.

Find peace in chaos, eyes up, Jesus is at the door.

Gospel – 

He is close.  Important now to get serious about Jesus.  2,000 years ago the greatest event that ever happened.  God sent His only begotten Son Jesus, 100% God, 100% man, healing people, miracles, perfect.  To come to pay for all the sins of mankind with His blood.  Without the shedding of blood, no remission of sin, no forgiveness.  Because of His love for us, He wants to spend eternity with us.  It’s an unearned gift, all by Him, for us. 

All required is to believe in what He did and will have sins removed,  Isaiah 40:25 – He remembers them no more. Died, buried, rose the 3rd day.  If reject, don’t receive this payment will go to hell, sins not forgiven.  Pay attention!

Believe, be saved, rapture ready, receive His Holy Spirit.  Be saved today.
