Adar – March 2026
Shalom, Dear Friends:
“Thus says the LORD of hosts (the armies of heaven), Behold (listen carefully), I am going to break the bow of Elam. (Persia) The finest weapons of their strength.” Jeremiah 49:35
The Mystery:
Prophetic history is unfolding daily; it’s hard to keep up. The timing of the military operations of Israel’s Roaring Lion and America’s Epic Fury continues to be jaw-dropping. Why? The Biblical narrative is so much more than just a story; it is history unfolding right before our eyes, moment by moment on global news casts. It all began during the Biblical story of Purim. King Ahasuerus, his wife Queen Esther, wicked Haman, and Mordechai set the pattern 2,500 years ago!
Weapons:
At the close of my letter, you will find details of the quantity and kinds of weapons employed by all sides in this ongoing conflict. It is nothing short of horrifying. History is being made every day. Do we even realise it? If we are awake, we will KNOW the absolute necessity of your weapons and use them daily as led by the Holy Spirit.
“No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper.”
Take and incorporate this scripture for yourself, your home, community, village, city, and nation. Yes, it’s the day when we battle for the salvation of nations. We are responsible before the throne of God for our nation. So much for complaining.
We first read of a demon spirit over Persia in the Book of Daniel. The Prince of Persia withstood the archangel Michael from answering Daniel’s prayer for a time. Michael is the guardian of the nation of Israel. No wonder all hell has broken loose. All of hell is amassed against this demonic prince today. Oh, yes, this demonic power has infiltrated the IRGC (Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps) and their proxies on earth. There will be no surrender as Mr Trump is demanding. So much so that it is the LORD of the Armies of Heaven who speaks in this hour. “I will set My throne of judgment in Elam (Persia). And I will destroy from there the king and princes.” Jeremiah 49 30
Yes, and you and I join the Almighty as we battle down here on earth in the blood of Messiah; His work accomplished on Calvary is our one sure covering and defence, nothing less! Father God has issued his verdict from heaven. And we, the praisers, go out before the Armies of Israel and America. “King Jehoshaphat appointed singers to walk ahead of the army to praise God’s lovingkindness and mercy. They faced the armies of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir.”2 Chronicles 20:21-22 As they sang, God set ambushes, causing the enemy forces to turn on each other and destroy themselves. Our work is in the Holy Spirit.
For the past 47 years, this demon, the Prince of Persia, has used the IRGC to believe, chant and make their sole aim the annihilation of Israel, and America! The reversal began on Shabbat, February 28th 2026. We are witnessing the fury of the Almighty. We are the generation chosen to witness many End Time prophecies unfolding through modern warfare. Just pause and consider this, and our call to attention as watchers and warriors.
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places.” Ephesians 6:12
Prisoners:
Our immediate and extended family in Israel have been pinned down in their homes due to the severe barrage of Iranian missiles. Thank goodness they are becoming fewer each day. 12 Israelis have lost their lives, and 6 US servicemen in this current conflict. Every day and night, the siren’s scream sends our son David, wife Adi, Amitai, 25 and Liyah, 22, racing down 4 flights of stairs to their bomb shelter. They live close to the American Embassy, which is a prime target. Thankfully, the Iranians keep missing. Amazingly, they have attacked 12 other nations in their madness. But their proxy Hezbollah keeps firing down on Israel from Lebanon.
We are awed as we study the weekly Bible readings (Parasha and Prophetic portions) read in all synagogues and observant Jewish homes throughout the world. The Eternal Book, the Bible, is just that … Eternal! The prophetic portion of the weekend the war began was: “… you shall wipe out the memory of Amalek from under heaven; you must not forget.” Deuteronomy 25:17-19.
Friends, these are the days approaching Eternity! How are you spending yours? Mine are filled with awe, thankfulness, prayer, and sadness for lost souls going out into the abyss.
I pity the enemy; they have no idea what their lies are going to end up costing them.
On a lighter note:
We rejoice knowing that Christians in Iran have survived and shall continue to flourish despite everything. Here enclosed is a video of me, my perspective on the War with Iran. Hope you enjoy it.
Prayer:
Our defensive and offensive weapon is active and interactive prayer. Take time to allow the Holy Spirit to speak into your heart. Listen as much as you speak, or even more. Please allow the blessed Holy Spirit to lead and guide your thinking to pray according to His all-powerful Eternal WILL.“Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Together, let us follow the pattern: ‘And looking up to heaven he said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.”’ John 11: 41
Our Apology:
Jay is speaking here: DEAR CANADIANS: THE REALITY ON THE INTERNET IS THAT THE BEST INTERNATIONAL CURRENCY when dealing with Europe is Euros. SORRY. There has been some confusion. The Buy-me-a-Coffee donation form is only in Euros. Meridel is speaking here: the buy me a coffee button form is now CLEARLY MARKED with a Euro sign. I thank each donor. We could not continue without you!
Stranded:
We presently are hosting two stranded Israelis who came for a couple of days and are marooned here with us until Israeli airspace opens up. They were told they would have to wait one month. Our son David and wife Adi were to come to us on the 13th for a much-needed rest, and there is no assurance that it will happen. We pray. They are in desperate need of rest and quiet, as are all Israelis.
Jay and I give thanks for every day we are given. We leave you with this little song:
“The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases.
His mercies are new every day.
New every morning,
New every morning,
Great is Thy faithfulness, O LORD!
Great is Thy faithfulness.
Sing along with us and give thanks.
Love from Jay and Meridel Rawlings.
