Diese schnell voranschreitenden, bedeutsamen Tage bringen Stunde um Stunde Veränderung. Es gibt nur einen sicheren Weg, welchen wir wählen können. Das ist der Weg des HERRN Jesus: das lebendige WORT. Es liegt an uns, uns in den Grundsätzen seines lebendigen WORTES zu erfrischen. Wählt gut, denn dies sind die Tage, welche uns in die Ewigkeit führen!
«Die Nationen sind in die Grube gefallen, die sie gegraben haben; ihr Fuß hat sich gefangen in dem Netz, das sie heimlich stellten. Der HERR hat sich zu erkennen gegeben, hat Gericht gehalten; der Gottlose ist verstrickt in dem Werk seiner Hände! Der Wehrlose überlässt es dir, der du der Helfer der Waisen bist! Zerbrich den Arm des Gottlosen und des Bösen». Psalm 9,15-16 Psalm 10,14b-15
Das Hören auf die Stille Kleine Stimme ist heute lebensnotwendiger als je zuvor. Seid Ihr bei all den negativen Überlastungen aus dem Gleichgewicht geraten oder habt Ihr Euch auf den Felsen gestellt? Für uns ist es eine Zeit der Besinnung und der Stille. Jesus allein hat das Wort des Lebens. Wir kommen zur Ruhe, schauen auf Ihn und sind erleuchtet!
Angesichts der vielen Stimmen, welche nach Aufmerksamkeit schreien, ist das alles, was ich jetzt schreibe. Das zehnminütige Video über das Leben des kleinen Propheten Zacharias ist lehrreich und tröstlich. Sein Name bedeutet: «Jawhe hört».
These swiftly moving momentous days, bring change hour by hour. There is only one sure course for us to choose. That is the way of the LORD Jesus; the Living WORD. It is up to us to refresh ourselves in the precepts of His living WORD. Choose well, for these are the days leading us into Eternity!
“The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden. The LORD is known by his justice; the wicked are enslaved by the works of their hands. The victim commits himself to you. You are the helper of the fatherless. Break of the arm of the wicked and evil man.”Psalm 9:15,16. Psalm 10:14b,15.
Listening for the Still Small Voice is more vital today perhaps than every before. Are you off balance with all of the negative overload or have you planted yourself on the Rock? For us it is a time of reflection and quietness. Jesus alone has the Word of life. We quieten ourselves, look to Him and are lightened!
With so many voices screaming for attention, this is all I will write at this time. The ten minute video on the life of the Minor Prophet Zechariah, is instructive and comforting. His name means, “Yahweh hears!”

Gesegnete Weihnachten für Euch alle!
Als ich heute aufwachte, ging mir ein altes Kirchenlied durch den Kopf: „Friede, Friede, wunderbarer Friede, welcher vom Vater herabkommt. Schwebe für immer über meinen Geist, ich bete, dass er für immer in unermesslichen Wogen der Liebe fließt …“
Israel bleibt zentral in unseren Gebeten, Abba Vater hat uns aus Israel herausgenommen, er hat aber Israel nicht aus uns herausgenommen! Es ist eine Familienangelegenheit. Ich glaube, dass wir heute alle in „Alarmbereitschaft“ für unsere Nationen sind. Die Welt wird von den Winden des Krieges, des Lärms und der Unruhe heimgesucht. Wir beten für die Regierenden, die Guten, die Schlechten und die Hässlichen. Ich bringe sie zu den Höfen des Himmels und lasse sie dort. Gottes Wille geschehe im Himmel wie auf Erden.

Wie man betet:
„Er ist unser Friede, er hat alle Mauern niedergerissen.“
„Betet für den Frieden Jerusalems, diejenigen werden gedeihen, welche Israel lieben…“
Möge sich dieser Friede auch auf unsere Familie, unsere Freunde und ja, sogar unsere Feinde erstrecken, sowie auf die vielen Menschen, für welche wir beten, Nation für Nation. Bevor das Jahr 2024 zu Ende geht, hoffe ich, dass sich jeder von uns Zeit nimmt, um mit Jesus allein zu sein, dem Geber des Friedens, der alles Verstehen übersteigt. Möge unser angestrebtes Geburtsrecht Gottes Königreich des Friedens sein, welches in unserem täglichen Leben und unseren Gebeten wirksam ist. Sein ewiges Werk in uns macht das Krumme gerade, löst alle Knechtschaft und Fesseln und ermutigt uns, den hartnäckigen, angeborenen Eigenwillen aufzugeben. Der Heilige Geist liebt es zu trösten. Was braucht jemand mehr als inneren Frieden? Erst dann wird das Unmögliche möglich.
Die unendliche Geschichte:
Als Jesus in Bethlehem geboren wurde, zitterten die einfachen Hirten vor Angst vor der Botschaft des Engels. Versucht es Euch vorzustellen? „Heute ist euch in der Stadt Davids ein Retter geboren, Er ist der Messias, der HERR. Und plötzlich war bei dem Engel die Menge der Himmlischen Heerscharen, die lobten Gott und sprachen: ‘Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe, und Friede auf Erden den Menschen, auf welchen sein Wohlgefallen ruht.’“ Lukas 2:9-14.
Das Königreich Gottes kam, als wir den Messias Jesus einluden, in unseren Herzen zu wohnen. Ja, denn er allein hat den Kaufpreis für unsere Seelen mit seinem Blut bezahlt: „Denn er empfing Ehre und Herrlichkeit vom Vater, als die Stimme aus der majestätischen Herrlichkeit zu ihm kam und sprach: «Dies ist mein Sohn, welchen ich liebhabe; an ihm habe ich Wohlgefallen». 2. Petrus 1,17
Der Messias kam und wird auf Anweisung von Vater Gott wiederkommen. Je länger ich lebe, desto mehr verstehe ich, was Sein FRIEDE für mich persönlich bedeutet. Er IST Friede. Ein Friede, der ein allumfassender Schalom ist, welcher uns für alle Umstände ausrüstet, denen wir heute und morgen begegnen werden. Was für eine harte Arbeit ist es, in seiner Liebe zu ruhen. Er wirkt nur, wenn ich ihm erlaube, mich bis zum Äußersten zu erlösen. Vielleicht seid Ihr auch an diesem Punkt. Lasst los und lasst Gott machen!
„ … wenn du diese Dinge tust, wirst du niemals VERSAGEN. Darum bemüht euch, in euren Glauben das Gute hinzuzufügen, und im Guten die Erkenntnis, und in der Erkenntnis die Selbstbeherrschung, und in der Selbstbeherrschung die Beharrlichkeit, und in der Beharrlichkeit die Gottesfurcht, und in der Gottesfurcht die Bruderliebe, in der Bruderliebe aber die Liebe.“
2. Petrus 1,5 – 7.
Überraschung in Syrien ?:
Der israelische Premierminister erklärte: «Der Zusammenbruch der Tyrannei des Assad-Regimes in Damaskus (nach 50 Jahren) bietet eine große Chance, ist aber auch mit Gefahren verbunden. Es ist das unmittelbare Ergebnis unseres energischen Vorgehens gegen Hisbollah und den Iran. Wir senden eine Handvoll Frieden an alle, welche jenseits unserer Grenze in Syrien leben: an die Drusen, die Kurden, die Christen, und die Muslime, welche in Frieden mit Israel leben wollen».
Ein syrischer Rebell übermittelte über den israelischen Kanal 11 eine Botschaft des Friedens und der Zusammenarbeit: „Liebe Nachbarn und Freunde aus dem befreundeten Staat Israel, es wird keinen Extremismus geben; wir teilen unsere Leidenschaft. Wir laden Israel ein, nach Syrien zu kommen und zu investieren.“
Also Freunde, lasst uns beten, dass diese guten Absichten und Worte NICHT auf den Boden fallen.
Familie:
Unsere kanadischen Besucher haben dieses Jahr viele Geschenke mitgebracht. Keevin und Nancy (meine jüngste Schwester) kamen mit zwei Weihnachtskrippen an. Eine davon, benutzerfreundlich, ist für unsere kleinen Enkel zum Aufstellen und Spielen gedacht. Jays Cousin Rob und seine Frau Lara brachten viele Kinderbücher mit; eines davon über die Geburt Christi. Vielen Dank dafür! Hier ist nichts in Englisch erhältlich. Von April bis Dezember erfreuten wir uns an unseren Familien und unseren israelischen Nachbarn, welche bei uns weilten, und alle haben das idyllische Tal und die Meereslandschaft genossen. Unseren Söhnen und ihren Familien geht es allen gut. Zunächst David in Jerusalem, Israel (David und Adi, Amitai und Liyah), danke an Chris in Helsinki, Finnland (Chris und Terhi, Noam, Heidi, Jouni und Liam.) Dank Chris erhaltet Ihr diesen Brief auf Englisch und Deutsch. Myrtha ist meine treue Übersetzerin in Zürich. Unser Sohn Joshua hat einen neuen Beruf in Griechenland gefunden. Joshs Töchter, Maya in Kopenhagen, Sophia in Australien und Cecilie in London. Daniel und Shelly, die Eltern von Ryan (3 Jahre), Gabriel (1,5 Jahre) und Emanuel (5 Monate). Sie sind alle sehr motiviert und beschäftig!
Thanksgiving:
Jay und ich verbrachten am Thanksgiving Tag Zeit damit, uns an alte Freunde zu erinnern. Viele von ihnen kennen wir schon über 50 Jahre. Wir riefen ihre Namen aus während wir uns uns an ihre Taten der Freundlichkeit und ihre treuen Gebete erinnerten. Jay endete mit Rufen der Dankbarkeit, ich … mit dankbaren Tränen. Wir waren sicherlich von einer großen Wolke von Zeugen umgeben. Einer unserer besten Gebetskrieger seit über 40 Jahren war James Rawlings, ein Bruder von Jay. Er ist in die Herrlichkeit eingegangen. Wir vermissen ihn. Nur eine Woche später flogen wir nach Finnland zur Hochzeit unseres ältesten Enkels. Noam heiratete Heidi in einem historischen Dorf. Es war ein Anlass von großen Feierlichkeiten und Freude.
Weihnachten mit neuen Augen:
Dieses Jahr habe ich Anna gelesen, ein historisches Buch über die Mutter Marias. Im Vorwort schrieb die Autorin, wie sie ihrer vierjährigen Enkelin, die Weihnachtsgeschichte erzählte. Als sie zu der Stelle kam: „ …und die müde kleine Heilige Familie kam endlich in einem kleinen Dorf namens Bethlehem an. Es gab jedoch keinen Platz, wo sie bleiben konnten. Man bot ihnen eine Unterkunft in einem Stall an, welcher warm und geschützt war. Sie teilten die mit den Eseln, Schafen und Hühnern…“ Das kleine Kind sprang vom Sofa auf und rief entrüstet: „Aber WARUM sind sie nicht zu ihrer Großmutter gegangen?“ (Historisch gesehen war die Großmutter Jesu, Anna, gestorben.)
Diejenigen unter Euch, welche einige reizvolle historische Einblicke in das Leben von Miriam – Maria, der Mutter von Jeschua – Jesus – zu schätzen wissen, werden den beigefügten Podcast nicht nur reizend, sondern auch historisch und informativ finden. Die Moderatorin ist Dr. Claire Pfann, welche zusammen mit ihrem Mann Steve die Jerusalem Universität mitgegründet hat. Viel Spaß und in der Tat mögen wir Weihnachten mit neuen Augen sehen!
Ich hoffe, dass wir uns alle in der momentanen Eile Zeit nehmen, um über die unvorstellbare Güte von Vater Gott nachzudenken, ja sogar in schweren Zeiten. Ich danke Euch für Eure liebevolle Hilfe, Eure Notizen, Eure Anrufe, aber vor allem für Eure Gebete. Ein gesegnetes Weihnachtsfest wünsche ich allen Lesern und ihren Lieben.
Möge Friede in Euren Herzen und in Eurem Haus wohnen, von jetzt an bis unser Friedensfürst wiederkommt. Danke, dass Ihr uns Rawlings im Jahr 2024 wunderbare Freunde wart.
Today, when I awoke, the old hymn playing in my mind was: “Peace peace, wonderful peace, coming down from the Father above. Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray, in fathomless billows of love …”
PHOTO: of Jesus painted by Joy Caros
Israel remains central in our prayers, Abba Father took us out of Israel, He did not take Israel out of us! It’s a family matter. I believe today, we all are on ‘alert’ for our nations. The world is battered by the winds of war, noise and trouble. We pray for those in leadership, the good, the bad and the ugly. I bring them to the Courts of Heaven and leave them there. God’s will be done in heaven as it is on earth.
How to Pray:
“He is our peace, He has broken down every wall.”
“Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem, they shall prosper who love her…” May that Peace, be extended to our family, friends and yes enemies, plus the multitudes that we pray for, nation by nation. Before 2024 closes, I hope each one of us will make time to be alone with Jesus, the Giver of Peace who passes all understanding. May out desired birthright be God’s Kingdom of Peace, effective in our daily lives and prayers. His eternal workmanship in us makes the crooked straight, undoes all bondages and shackles, encouraging us to surrender that stubborn inbred self-will. The Holy Spirit loves to Comfort. What does anyone need more than inner-Peace? Only then the impossible becomes possible.
The Never Ending Story:
When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, lowly shepherds, trembled in fear at the Angel’s message. Try to imagine it. “Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you, He is Messiah the LORD. Suddenly the heavenly host appeared with the angel praising God and saying: ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom His favour rests.’”Luke 2:11,14.
The Kingdom of God came when we invited Messiah Jesus to live in our hearts. Yes, because He alone paid the purchase price for our souls through His blood.“For He received honour and glory from the Father when the voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory, saying, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with Him, I am well pleased.”2 Peter 1:17
Messiah came and will return under Father God’s instruction. The longer I live, the more I understand what His PEACE means to me personally. He IS Peace. Peace is an all-encompassing Shalom equipping us for every circumstance that we may face today and tomorrow. What hard work it is to rest in His love. He only works as I allow Him to redeem me to the uttermost. Maybe you are in this place too. Let go and let God!
“ … if you do these things, you will never FAIL. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness, and to goodness knowledge, and to knowledge, self-control, and to self-control, perseverance, and to perseverance, godliness, and to godliness, brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness, love.”
1 Peter 10b, 2.
Surprise in Syria ?:
Israeli PM stated: “The collapse of the Assad Regime’s tyranny in Damascus (of 50 years) offers great opportunity but is fraught with danger. It is the direct result of our forceful action against Hezbulloh and Iran, We send a hand of peace to all those beyond our border in Syria: to the Druze, the Kurds, the Christians, and Muslims who want to live in peace with Israel.”
A Syrian rebel extended a message of peace and cooperation via Israel’s Channel 11 saying, “Dear beloved neighbours and friends from the friendly State of Israel, there will be no extremism; we share passion. We invite Israel to come to Syria and invest.”
So friends, let us pray, these good intentions and words do Not fall to the ground.
Family:
Our Canadian guests this year brought many gifts. Keevin and Nancy (my youngest sister) arrived with two nativity scenes. One is ‘user friendly’ for our little grandsons to set up and play with. Jay’s cousin Rob and his wife Lara brought many children’s books; one on the Nativity. Thank you! Here nothing is available in English. We enjoyed family and Israeli neighbors from April through Dec. Everyone enjoyed the pastoral valley and seascapes.
Our sons and their families are all doing well. First, David in Jerusalem Israel (David and Adi, Amitai and Liyah), and Chris in Helsinki Finland (Chris and Terhi, Noam, Heidi, Jouni and Liam.) Thanks to Chris you receive this letter In English and German. Myrtha is my faithful translator in Zurich. Son Joshua has found a new profession in Greece. Josh’s daughters, Maya Copenhagen, Sophia Australia and Cecilie London. Daniel, and Shelly, parents of Ryan 3 yrs, Gabriel 1.5 yrs and Emanuel. 5 mos. They are all very motivated and busy!
Thanksgiving:
Jay and I spent time on Thanksgiving Day, remembering old friends. Many go back the past 50 years. We called out their names as we remembered their deeds of kindness and faithful prayers. Jay ended up with shouts of thankfulness, me … grateful tears. We have surely been surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. One of our finest prayer warriors of over 40 years was James Rawlings, a brother to Jay. He has left for Glory. We miss him. Just a week later we flew to Finland for our oldest Grandson’s wedding. Noam married Heidi in a historical village. It was an occasion of tremendous celebration and joy,
Christmas With New Eyes:
This year, I read Anna, a historical work on the mother of Mary. In the forward, the author wrote about telling her granddaughter of 4 years, the Christmas Story. When she came to “ … and the tired little Holy Family finally arrived, in a small village called Bethlehem. There was no place for them to stay. They were offered privacy in a stable which was warm and sheltered. They shared it with the donkeys, sheep and chickens…” The little child jumped off of the sofa, indignation filling her voice, she exclaimed “But WHY didn’t they go to Grandma’s house?” (Historically, Jesus’ Grandma, Anna had died.)
For those of you who would appreciate some delightful historical insights into the life of Miriam – Mary the mother of Yeshua – Jesus, you will find the enclosed podcast not only delightful but historical and informative. The presenter is Dr. Claire Pfann, who with her husband Steve co-founded the Jerusalem University. Enjoy, and truly, may we see Christmas with new eyes!
I hope we will all take time in the rush to ponder Father God’s unimaginable kindness, yes even in the hard times. Thank you for your loving help, notes, calls but most of all your prayers. A very blessed Christmas to each reader and to your loved ones.
May Peace be resident in your hearts and home from now until our Prince of Peace returns! Thank you for being wonderful friends to us Rawlings during 2024.
With love and peace from our home to yours.
Jay and Meridel Rawlings.

„Und es soll geschehen an jenem Tag, dass ich Jerusalem zum Laststein für alle Völker machen werde; alle, die ihn heben wollen, werden sich gewisslich daran wund reissen; und alle Heidenvölker der Erde werden sich gegen es versammeln.“ Sacharja 12:3
Das ist die Richtung, in welche wir gehen…
„Wer will gegen die Auserwählten Gottes Anklage erheben??“ Römer 8:33
Tage des Schicksals:
Wusstet Ihr, dass die Muslime den November zum Monat der Anti-Islamophobie erklärt haben?!
Ja, ich höre den Lärm und die Aufregung, welche die Nationen überfluten und sich im Internet verbreiten. Es gibt KEINE Ruhe, KEINEN Frieden, nur Spekulationen und Drohungen. Mit dem erdrutschartigen Wahlsieg des ehemaligen Präsidenten Trump ist der Wandel ausgebrochen. Das Volk hat gesprochen, und die einzigen, welche sich davon irritieren lassen, sind die Linken. Was für ein Weckruf. Lasst Euch nicht täuschen. Wir befinden uns in einer Zeit großer geistlicher und politischer Turbulenzen, welche durch Medienlügen angeheizt werden. Unerwartete Angriffe werden in den nächsten zwei Monaten vor dem Amtsantritt von Herrn Trump geplant. Bleibt wachsam!Sie werden aus unerwarteten Quellen kommen. Die Finsternis wütet überall. Die Amtseinführung von Trump ist am 20./25. Januar. Bitte bleibt diese nächsten zwei Monate im Gebet für alle Regierungen.
Lasst Gott Gott sein und alle Menschen Lügner. Unser Gott regiert und hört auf unsere Schreie nach Freiheit. Mein Herz fliesst über, denn ich sehe die mächtige Hand des HERRN in unserer Mitte. Er RUFT uns auf, gemeinsam mit anderen dafür zu beten, dass Erlösung und Gerechtigkeit in Millionen und Milliarden von Herzen einziehen. Zuerst beten wir für alle Führer. Seid Ihr verärgert über den Leiter Eures Landes? Wie betet Ihr? Weigert Euch zu hassen. Bringt sie vor den himmlischen Gerichtshof und lasst sie dort. Benutzt Euren Schlüssel zum Königreich Gottes, um das Böse zu binden und das Gute zu lösen. „Ich sage euch: Was ihr auf Erden bindet, wird im Himmel gebunden sein, und was ihr auf Erden löst, wird im Himmel gelöst sein. Matthäus 18:18-20.
Veränderung:
Die linksgerichteten Regierungen in den USA, Kanada und Europa haben Millionen radikaler Muslime einwandern lassen, weil sie dachten, sie würden sich integrieren. Diese Gäste hassen ihre Gastgeber und alles, was sie repräsentieren, und schaffen Chaos. Wisst Ihr, was in Amsterdam nach dem Fußballspiel zwischen Ajax und Israel passiert ist? Der Angriff auf Israelis durch 100 junge Muslime war koordiniert. Die Muslime prahlten in den sozialen Medien damit, dass dieses Pogrom nach Plan verlief. Zwei Tage später in Schweden, am Jahrestag der Kristallnacht vom 9. November 1938, wurden Juden in Schweden und Antwerpen, Belgien angegriffen. Andere Twitter-Konten fordern französische Marokkaner auf, Juden zu lynchen, welche ein bevorstehendes Fußballspiel besuchen werden. 1938 wurde Deutschland vom Antisemitismus überrollt. Dieses Leiden beunruhigt ganz Europa und den Westen. Die Palästinenser sind in jedem fremden Land, welches sie betreten haben, auf dem Vormarsch. Heute haben sie es auf Juden abgesehen, morgen werden es die Christen sein. Wir haben die Tage miterlebt, als die Palästinenser anfingen, ihren Slogan an unsere Wände in Israel zu skandieren und zu kritzeln: „Zuerst das Samstagsvolk, dann das Sonntagsvolk…“
Beobachtet einfach einen Verbrecher, welcher versucht, einem Vater sein Kind zu stehlen.
Maskierter Angreifer versucht, jüdischen Jungen dem Vater in Brooklyn zu entreißen
SCHOCKIEREND! Eine für den 26. November geplante Mahnwache zu Ehren von Yahya Sinwar, dem Hauptverantwortlichen für die Massaker vom 7. Oktober 2023, übertrifft sich selbst. Die Stadtverwaltung sagte, sie werde sich nicht einmischen. Letzte Woche wurden Flugblätter entdeckt, welche für die Veranstaltung werben und das Symbol der Mohnblume verwenden, welches von der Royal Canadian Legion eingeführt wurde, um die kanadischen Veteranen zu ehren. Es wurde neben einem Foto des verstorbenen Hamas-Führers Yahya Sinwar mit den Worten „Vergessen wir unsere Helden nicht: Mahnwache für die Führer des Widerstands“. In einer Anzeige hieß es, dass die Veranstaltung „40 Tage nach dem Märtyrertod der für die palästinensische Freiheit kämpfenden Führer des Widerstands“ stattfinden würde. Was denkt Ihr über diese Kanadier? Kampf für Eure Freiheit?
Irland:
Irland kämpft gegen die Realität mit Anti-Israel-Entscheidungen. Im April haben sie beschlossen, den palästinensischen Staat anzuerkennen. Wer hat sie gefragt? Ihr Schulbuch lehrt, dass Auschwitz ein Kriegsgefangenenlager war, und sie lehren auch, dass Jesus in Palästina und nicht in Judäa geboren wurde?
Israel:
Israel befindet sich seit 13 Monaten im Krieg mit der Hamas und hat die Kontrolle über 30 % des Gazastreifens übernommen. 80 % der Moscheen in Gaza wurden zerstört. Sie wurden als Kommandozentralen und Waffendepots der Hamas genutzt. Die Regierung Biden setzt Israel unter Druck, die Übernahme des Gazastreifens zu verlangsamen und betont die Notwendigkeit humanitärer Hilfe. Das sind Fake News… am 13. November sagte das US-Außenministerium: „Israel hat sich geirrt.“ Die Menschen in Gaza hungern nicht. Hungernden Menschen werden keine Menthols, Nutella und Zigaretten geschickt,
Iran:
Netanjahu hat gerade diese Botschaft an das iranische Volk geschickt. „Es gibt eine Sache, welche Khomeinis Regime mehr fürchtet als Israel: Das seid ihr, das iranische Volk. Deshalb verwenden sie so viel Zeit und Geld darauf, eure Hoffnungen zu zerstören und eure Träume zu unterdrücken. Nun, ich sage euch Folgendes: Lasst eure Träume nicht sterben. … Verliert nicht die Hoffnung und wisst, dass Israel und andere in der freien Welt mit euch sind.“
Sie wollen uns zerstören. Wir sollten nie vergessen, dass der Iran Israel, eine souveräne Nation, im April mit 200 ballistischen Raketen und im Oktober dieses Jahres mit 181 Raketen angegriffen hat. Das ist ein Novum in der Geschichte des Krieges. Was wäre, wenn es Euer Land wäre? Wie würde das Eure Haltung ändern?
Libanon:
Israel kontrolliert jetzt die Dörfer an der Frontlinie im Libanon. Sie haben tonnenweise unterirdisch gelagerte Waffen zerstört, innerhalb und außerhalb von Häusern … 10 Mal mehr als in Gaza. Israel zerstört die gesamte unterirdische Infrastruktur zur Lagerung von Grabungsgeräten, riesigen Lastwagen, Panzern und Raketen. In dieser Woche wird die 2. Verteidigungslinie von Hisbollah, welche sich nach Norden in Richtung des Letani-Flusses bewegt, ausgeschaltet. Von einem Waffenstillstand kann keine Rede sein, solange dieses Ziel nicht erreicht ist.
Syrien:
In dieser Woche schaltete Israel den militärischen Führer der Hisbollah (Daduk) in Damaskus und 10 iranische Kommandeure mit ihm aus. Auch Salim Ayyash wurde ausgeschaltet, der Terrorist welcher 2005 in Beirut 1.000 Kilogramm TNT zur Explosion brachte. Dabei wurde der christliche Ministerpräsident des Libanon, Rafik Hariri, und 21 weitere Personen getötet, wodurch der Weg für die Übernahme des Libanon durch Hisbollah frei wurde. Betet bitte weiter für alle Seelen in vom Krieg heimgesuchten Ländern.
Jemen und Irak:
Beide Länder schicken Drohnen in viele Städte und sensible militärische Einrichtungen in Israel. Die Nation wird buchstäblich von allen Grenzen aus „belagert“.
Warum an den 11. November erinnern?
… damit wir nicht vergessen, welcher Preis dafür gezahlt wurde, und warum er gezahlt wurde und weiterhin gezahlt wird! Bevor Ihr Euch dieses Video anseht, möchte ich Euch sagen, dass die muslimische Welt unseren 11. November als Gedenktag für die gefallenen Soldaten des Ersten und Zweiten Weltkriegs erzwungen hat. Sie haben erklärt, dass dies nun der „Schahid-Tag“ ist, zu Ehren des Gedenkens an ihre heiligen Märtyrer, die ihr Leben für das Abschlachten der Juden gaben. Was für eine Verdrehung! Findet Ihr das beleidigend?
„Es sei dir gesagt, o Mensch, was gut ist: und was der Herr von dir fordert: Was anders als Recht tun, Liebe üben und demütig zu wandeln mit deinem Gott.“ Micha 6,8
„Die Furcht des HERRN ist der Anfang der Weisheit.“ Sprüche 9,10:
Mögt Ihr Euch dadurch ermutigt und herausgefordert genug fühlen, um für Veränderungen zu beten.

“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all peoples: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.” Zechariah 12:3
This is where we are going…
“Who will bring any charge to God’s against those whom God has chosen (elected)?” Romans 8:33
Days of Destiny:
Did you know Muslims have declared November to be anti-islamophobia month?!
Yes, I hear the noise and foment flooding the nations and spilling out over the internet. There is NO rest, NO peace, only speculation and threats. Change has burst forth with the landslide electoral victory of former President Trump. The people have spoken, and the only people who seem bewildered by it are the Left. What a wake-up call. Do not be deceived. We are in a period of great spiritual and political turbulence, fueled by media lies. Unexpected attacks are being planned over the next two months before Mr Trump takes office. Stay alert! They will come from unexpected sources. The darkness is raging everywhere. The Trump Inauguration is on January 20/25. Please bathe these next 2 months In prayer for all governments.
Let God be God an all men liars. Our God reigns, listening to our cries for liberty. My heart is brimming over for I see the mighty Hand of the LORD in our midst. He CALLS us to join others in praying for Salvation and Righteousness to spring forth into millions and billions of hearts. First, we pray for all leaders. Are you upset with the leader of your nation? How do you pray? Refuse to hate. Bring them before the Heavenly Court and leave them there. Use your keys to the Kingdom of God to bind the evil and lose the good. “I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 18:18-20.
Change: The leftist governments in the USA, Canada, and Europe have allowed millions of radical Muslims to immigrate, thinking they will assimilate. These guests hate their hosts and hate everything they represent and are creating kayos. You know what happened in Amsterdam after the soccer game between, Ajax and Israel. The attack on Israelis by 100 young Muslims was all coordinated. Muslims bragged on social media that this pogrom* went according to plan. Two days later in Sweden on the anniversary of Nov 9th 1938, Kristallnacht, (‘night of the broken glass’) Jews were attacked in Sweden and Antwerp Belgium. Other Twitter accounts are demanding French Moroccans to lynch Jews who attend an upcoming football game. Anti-Semitism overtook Germany in 1938. This disease troubles all of Europe and the West. Palestinians are on the move in every foreign land they have entered. Today they target Jews and tomorrow it will be the Christians. We lived through the days when the Palestinians, began chanting and scribbling their slogan on our walls in Israel; “first the Saturday people then the Sunday people…” Just watch a thug trying to steal a child from his father.
SHOCKING! A planned vigil set for Nov 26th to honour Yahya Sinwar, chief mastermind of the October 7th massacres is all ‘go’. Municipal officials said they would not interfere. Flyers advertising the event were spotted last week, using the poppy flower symbol, established by the Royal Canadian Legion as a way to pay tribute to Canadian veterans. It has been placed next to a photograph of the late Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar with the words “Lest We Forget Our Heroes: Vigil For Resistance Leaders.” One advertisement said the event would commemorate “40 days after the Martyrdom of the leaders of Resistance fighting for Palestinian freedom.” What do you think about that Canadians? Fight for your freedom?
Ireland:
Ireland fights reality in anti-Israel choices. In April they decided to recognize Palestinian statehood. Who asked them? Their school textbook teaches Auschwitz was a POW camp and they also teach, that Jesus was born in Palestine not Judea?
Israel:
Israel has been at war with Hamas for 13 months now and has taken control of 30% of Gaza. 80% of Gaza’s mosques were destroyed. They were used as command centres and weapons depots for Hamas. The Biden Admin. is pressuring Israel to slow down their take over of Gaza, stressing the need for humanitarian aid. This is fake news … on 13th Nov. the US State Dept. said, “Israel did err.” People are not hungry in Gaza. Starving people are not sent menthols, Nutella and cigarettes,
Iran:
Netanyahu just sent this message to the Iranian people. “There is one thing that Khomeini’s regime fears more than Israel; It’s you, the people of Iran. That’s why they spend so much time and money trying to crush your hopes and curb your dreams. Well, I say to you this: Don’t let your dreams die. … Don’t lose hope, and know that Israel and others in the free world are with you.”
They want to destroy us. Let us never forget, that Iran attacked Israel, a sovereign nation in April with 200 ballistic missiles and in Oct with 181 this year. This is a first in the history of war. What if it was your nation? How would it change your attitude?
Lebanon:
Israel now controls the front-line villages in Lebanon. They have destroyed tonnes of stockpiled weapons underground, inside and outside of houses … 10’s more than in Gaza. Israel is destroying all infrastructure built underground for storing digging equipment, huge trucks, tanks and missiles. This week they are eliminating the 2nd line of Hezbulloh’s line of defence moving north toward the Letani river. There can be no talk of a cease-fire until this objective is reached.
Syria:
This week, Israel took out Hezbulloh’s military leader (Daduk) in Damascus and 10 Iranian commanders with him. They also eliminated Salim Ayyash, the terrorist who detonated 1,000 kilograms of TNT in Beirut in 2005. It killed the Christian Prime Minister of Lebanon, Rafik Hariri and 21 others, opening the way for Hezbulloh’s takeover of Lebanon. Keep praying for all souls in the war-torn lands.
Yemen and Iraq:
Both are sending drones into many cities and sensitive military sites in Israel. The nation is literally ‘under siege’ from all borders.
Why Remember November 11th?
… lest we forget the price that was paid, and why it was paid and continues to be paid! Before you watch this video, I want you to know that the Muslim world has coerced our Nov 11th of Remembrance Day for the fallen soldiers of WWI and WWII. They declared that it is now ‘Shahid’s Day’ in honour of the memory of their holy martyrs who gave their lives slaughtering Jews. What a twist! Do you find this offensive?

“Rejoice, O nations with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His servants, and will render vengeance on His adversaries, and will atone for His land and His people.” Deuteronomy 42:43
Since my last Still Small Voice, Gaza, Lebanon and Iran have been impacted by Israel standing strong against the aggression. Change is everywhere. Regional analysts believe up to half of Israel’s air force completed their operation over Iran a week ago this Shabbat at 2 am local time. All pilots returned home safe and sound.
First, Israel struck radar systems stationed in Syria, leaving Tehran blind for Israeli planes to advance over more than 1,000 miles into Iranian airspace.
Large swaths of the Islamic Republic’s air defences, including Russian-made missile systems, were left vulnerable. A former White House National Security Council member said: “We should understand that Tehran is naked right now, the Ayatollah has no clothes. Israel destroyed Iran’s strategic air defence capabilities and set back its missile and drone production extensively.” Satellite imagery revealed extensive damage to sensitive military sites, including some linked to Tehran’s illicit nuclear weapons program.

Thoughts of The HOLY One of Israel:
“God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong, the base things and the despised, God has chosen, the things that are not, that He might nullify the things that are, that no man should boast before Him. 1 Corinthians. 1:27-29.
Please hide this truth in your heart. Can you find yourself written here?
How the Enemy of our souls thinks!
One Muslim explains how Israel won the wars of 1948,1967,1973, and also this present war with Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran and the Houti’s? “They [the Jews] have had access to genies and cosmic science since the time of David and Solomon. Their documents and traditions proved that. They have used genies and demons for warfare and intelligence operations throughout history.” Rashid Karami, former Prime Minister of Lebanon.
“The International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem was formed many years ago, in 1980, when most countries chose to move their Embassies out of Jerusalem to Tel Aviv. Our friends Tim King and Dr. Jay Rawlings were among those brave people who stood by Israel and both live here and their children served in the IDF. Each year the ICEJ creates a Tabernacles Festival here in Jerusalem and this year was no different. To see and hear the unconditional support in every moment of the Festival warms our hearts and we give thanks to the leaders for persevering in bringing participants from the world over.” https://youtu.be/sszgMGyh-n0?si=naPOfPCYyPlJNMYd
God’s Perspective on Israel:
ISRAEL is a country that, since its founding, has one basic principle encapsulated in the tenet “To be a light among nations”, We work to protect Israelis irrespective of faith, to ensure that we will never again be subject to attempted genocide, or ethnic cleansing. Consequently, we build safe rooms, shelters, sirens, and the iron dome defence system. Our economy thrives; despite huge defence spending.
We have never built tunnels and our biggest issue is that we still believe in the unique God-given nobility of human nature.
Tamir Grinberg is anointed and sings, “Broken Hearts”, the unspoken cry of Israel’s soul. I am praying that young Israelis like Tamir will be instruments for Revival.

“Now at that time Michael the great prince who stands guard over the children of your people, will arise. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; but at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the “Book of Life” will be rescued.”Daniel 12:1
Iranian missiles rained down upon Israel as the New Year was being ushered in. We were on the phone with our son David, during the barrage of over 185 ballistic missiles this week. It takes just 12 minutes for them to travel the 1,000 miles from Iran to Israel. We heard the incessant explosions. It is just unbelievable and we must not get used to this insane behavior. Iran’s second missile attack since April leaves them vulnerable now, to Israel’s retaliation. A senior IDF person, Dr. Gold created ‘the iron dome’ system of defence. He said, “This latest attack and the protection granted to Israel is equal to the miracle of the splitting of the Red Sea.” The LORD God of Israel protects his own. Meanwhile, Israel has done what no other nation has. In one week they decapitated the head of the snake – Hezbulloh. The ground offensive into Lebanon is a gruelling undertaking to ensure a safe return to 100,000 Israelis back to their home in the Northern border areas.
“And after the earthquake a fire and after the fire a sound of a gentle stillness … ; and behold a voice came to him and said, ‘What are you doing here Elijah?” 1 Kings 19:12
The Still Small Voice:
Have you wondered how one person seems to ‘wear’ the ‘will of the LORD’ more easily than another or even yourself? It’s a good question and worthy of an answer.
Perhaps the reason that we do not know or better understand Him is, we do not pay attention to His gentle checks, those delicate restraints and constraints. His is a Still Small Voice! This voice can hardly be heard, it must be felt. I liken it to the steady, gentle pressure upon one’s mind and heart, like a soft morning breeze. It is indeed a small voice, just the whisper of a thought at times, so easily missed. If it is heeded it grows noiselessly clearer to your inner ear. His voice is heard by the ear of love, waiting for His whispers.
There can come a time when love ceases to speak, if not responded to or believed in. His is love, and if you would know Him, and His voice, give constant attention to His touches. He will keep you and I, only IF we hand over the control and give up ‘my’ rulership, listen and constantly obey. To obey often demands we take the lesser place, remain silent when we have answers, or know that we are ‘right’, or want ’to set the record straight’. It takes being led, by our Shepherd, who charters our course, knowing the end from the beginning.
Waiting on God is for the strong of heart, the patient, the hungry soul. “For you LORD alone have the words of eternal LIFE!” John 6:68
So, beloved, in closing; if you would know His voice, this new year, 5785, a year of judgment and blessing, never consider results or possible effects. OBEY even when He asks you to move in the dark. There will spring up in your heart a fellowship with your LORD, to hold you both together even in severest testings and under most terrible pressures. Guaranteed! That is my personal testimony.
We close in love, sending you heaven’s blessings which satisfy;
Jay and Meridel Rawlings.
The shofar is an instrument of war. We are at war friends, and we will win.
Here is Jay blowing the shofar on Rosh ha Shannah, the Day of Blowing!
We are living in supernatural times, hearkening back to Biblical days. Strange and unusual things are happening. We expect the supernatural to continue to unfold throughout Israel and in our own lives. This is why, it is well worth our time and future to always “give a cup of cold water” to anyone in the Name of the LORD. Commune daily. Listen, Hear and Obey the Still Small Voice.
These are in the ‘Days of Repentance’ leading to the Jewish New Year, 5785. These number letters in Hebrew spell, “a year of grace and judgment.” Shillot prayers ask for forgiveness, first from the people who fill our lives and then from the LORD for our offences. Jesus rehearsed this principle. “Leave your gift there before the altar and go. First, be reconciled with your brother and then go and offer your gift.” Matthew 5:24
“LORD Jesus, encourage me to live in such a way today that my life will influence those I meet for tomorrow. Teach me how to pray. Let my prayers for Israel make all the difference. Help us to rejoice in hope and weep with Israel and rejoice with her. We do not despise her enemies, we pity and pray for the lost. “This will be written for the later LAST generation, and a people who have not yet been created will praise the LORD.” Psalm 102:18
Pray that the wrath of the LORD’s enemies will praise Him. Friends, I believe that all things point to the fact that you and I are the last generation. We have been called for such a time as this. Israel is the first of all nations, she is being prepared for rulership. Understanding this principle sheds some light on the most difficult path she must endure and triumph over. Likewise, we must also grit our teeth at times to endure, for neither shall we rule unless we pay the price of fighting for truth and love. This program of struggle, ‘endurance’ is set to shadow all nations.
“And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces …” Zechariah 12:3
Sept 19th 2024. Jerusalem News Service:
Only 14 countries, including the United States, joined Israel in opposing the resolution.
In a resolution yesterday, passed by a 124-14 margin, with 43 abstentions fronted by the Palestinians echoing the July advice of the International Court of Justice saying that the Israeli presence is illegal in the Old City of Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria. It demands that the Israeli army and Jewish residents evacuate the pre-1949 line. The Palestinian-fronted resolution passed by wide margin, demands that the Israeli army and Jewish residents evacuate to pre-1949 line within a year.
Lebanon was the only Christian Nation in the Middle East
I visited Lebanon in the fall of 1965. Then it was known as the Paris of the Middle East. I was treated to a 70-course lunch, in a restaurant under a waterfall. Then I worked on a kibbutz in Galilee and visited Egypt. How the world has changed.
I am not sure if you remember but Lebanon was intended as a Christian country, a Christian haven among the Islamic nations that surround them, abutting the proposed Jewish State. Life in Lebanon was good until two things happened. In order to make the two states contiguous, the two borders were joined with a Moslem area in between, then, Yassir Arafat arrived on the scene and the Christian dream was lost. I still remember, visiting the border which was nothing more than a car park-type barrier and we all had photos taken with the open fields of Lebanon behind us. Lebanon is in chaos today. Everyone knows about the mysterious explosions on pagers and walkie-talkies experienced by Hezbollah.

ISRAEL:
Friends keep your prayers up. The major ongoing war remains in Gaza, to date, 17,000 terrorists have been eliminated. At present it is an ongoing underground gorilla war. Deadly and cruel!
Preemptive Attack:
At dawn yesterday, 15 minutes before one of our worst attacks, Israel preempted Hezbulloh, with 100 planes taking out 170 targets, and 6,000 launch pads destroyed. This action thwarted Hezbulloh’s plan to take out the main military intelligence base in central Israel. It was a brilliant tactical victory for Israel. Drawing the entire Middle East into this war has not happened. Below: UN-Half Truths:
Hostages:
“…others were tortured, and refused to be released … facing jeers and flogging … chained, stoned, destitute, persecuted and Ill-treated. The world was (IS) not worthy of them. They wandered in caves and holes in the ground.” (tunnels) Hebrews 11:35b-38.
Monday, August 27th, Kaith Firhan Al Quadi, an Israeli Bedouin hostage, 52 years oldwas rescued out of a Hamas tunnel this morning. His 90 year old mother lives in the West Bank, his wife and 11 children are from Rahat. “Life from the dead” is how one ofhis brothers described the rescue. Firhan is a great source of information for Israel. Heis presently undergoing debriefing and examinations in hospital. Hope has been released in Israel!The IDF Spokesman said: “He was delivered home to Israel today by a highly secret complex
intelligence operation in Gaza. A ‘flower’ has been rescued from a tunnel on his 326th day of captivity. We are determined to see the remaining 108 hostages brought home.”
We still have up to 108 lost hostages in Gaza; aged 1 to 82 years. Those previously released were starving, having subsisted on a little rice and white bread. The women were gang raped, beaten and taunted. All suffered from muscle and joint pain due to lack of nutrition and being forced to stay in one position. All had up to 3 kinds of fevers, including tick and from dust. This week the bodies of 6 Israeli men were found in a tunnel, starved, beaten and riddled with bullets. They have been returned to families for descent burials.
Human Sacrifice:
One of the sad aspects of this war is that none, not one of the Moslem countries, indeed any country, despite their verbal or political sympathies, has taken in any refugees from Gaza, except for Canada, and the country is in an uproar over it.
Yahya Sinwar, Hamas leader, masterminded October 7th who surrounds himself with Israeli hostages demanded in the latest hostages-for-ceasefire-and-prisoners deala personal safety guarantee as a new condition. He demands his own personal safety, all the while sending thousands of civilian Gazans to their deaths. Egyptian source. Aug 21,2024 World Israel News
This terrorist mastermind current leader of Gaza, is nowdisguised as a woman hiding in plain sight. He no longer uses electronic devices, but depends upon couriers for information. Pray that he is brought to justice swiftly. i24News Aug. 27th 2024.
War Begins with Media:
The Emmy nominee this month for film in the News & Documentary category is a woman named ‘Bisan Atef Owda’. She claims “Israel occupies every corner of the world.” She documented the Palestinian activist’s experience during the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. The film is nominated alongside its publisher AJ+, an offshoot of the Qatari-owned media conglomerate Al Jazeera, which broadcasts rabidly anti Israel propaganda across the globe. Of course they funded this film. 150 actors and Hollywood leaders are pressing the National Academy of Television Arts to pull this nomination because of the ‘documented ties’ of this woman with the PFLP terror group. (On the terror list of nations in the USA) The nomination may violate the Emmy Awards’ own code of conduct, which says the nominating organization has a “zero tolerance for discrimination, harassment or illegal, dishonest, unethical or otherwise harmful conduct,”
An Israeli documentarist has just released his film covering the aftermath of the Nova Dance festival on the Gaza Border, Oct 6th and 7th. 3,500 youths were present from all ethnic groups of Israeli society. He was on site two days after the disaster and interviews survivors and used footage from their phones. He also used Go-Pro shots taken by the terrorists themselves. (Blurred) Pray that it will SHOUT to the youth of the world, nation by nation to rethink their prejudices.
Crying for Forgiveness:
Major Gen. Aharon Haliva, served in the IDF for 38 years. He is the departing head of the Military Intelligence Directorate.“I take full responsibility for the intelligence failures that led to the October 7th Hamas invasion. I will carry it on my conscience until my last days.” He asked the public for forgiveness.
Israel’s Borders:
Please pray over ALL of Israel’s borders. Druze on the Northern border of the Golan where stuck a deadly blow recently and lost many youths when their soccer field was stuck by a missile from Hezbulloh. Katzrin, a large city in the Golan had 180 missiles lobbed at them this week. Tel Aviv and Nahariah on the sea are also targets of nonstop aggression. East on the border with Jordan, Hamas squads have infiltrated local Arab villages. Tons of arms’ are flooding in from Jordan. There are reports of Iranian militias concentrating on this border.
Canada:
Drastic changes have swept over Canada. Since 2021,100 churches have been torched, several burned to the ground. The latest was in the little town of Grande-Anse, New Brunswick. Mainline media made NO mention of it. If this and the other churches had been mosques, Politicians and the media would be ringing the hate crimes alarm. But no one cares when it’s just Christian churches … And as Gerald Butts, Justin Trudeau’s best fiend and advisor said, “burning churches is understandable.” David Menies. Tuesday Aug. 14th 24 Rebel News, Canada.
I am showing this clip on Canada, so that when victory comes to not only Israel, America and Canada; we who have prayed for those who persecute us will rejoice! “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has lost its taste (purpose) how can it be made salty? It is no longer good for anything, but to be thrown out and walked-on by people [when the walkways are wet and slippery}!
Matthew 5:13-15
A Drink of Cold Water:
“The Lord Jesus spoke recently; “Will you still resist My love for you. There is no reason to try and hide from Me. Allow Me to remove every false belief system you have within you. Allow Me to renew your mind, soul and spirit with the truth of My love for you. By doing so, you will soar higher in faith than you ever saw possible.”
Barry Wunsch, Red Deer Alberta Canada, Aug. 3rd, 2024.
Miracles Among the Nations:
“Kindly allow me to give you an inside look at what it means to be ‘called out’. We have written a pattern of the light and shade which accompanies the way of faith through our very human lives. What we experienced was remarkable! Why? Because it is the very hard and narrow places in which we find ourselves through being willing to trust our lives into God’s extraordinary responses all along the way. God’s calling does not lift us out of the the pathway of commonsense. Trials can perfect our faith. “ Meridel
Quotes: “I bought your book and gave it to several friends. One reported she enjoyed it and is now encouraged to believe God for her miracles. She was sad when the book ended. This beautiful friend is praying for her daughter to get out of a bad relationship.” P.S. Canada
“In Miracles Among the Nations, I read about your time in a local market where a deaf and dumb Filipino porter carrying sacks of charcoal was marvelously healed. It’s so well-written and is it ever anointed! THANK YOU. Yes sir, that book will sail to the top of the charts in Yeshua’s name!” B. Krachmal, Jerusalem, USA.
