Israel's Plea for Support 00:04:13
We're in deep trouble, people.
That's right.
This is like King David would come to our country and ask us to help them.
And this is the leader of Israel.
And he came and addressed our country.
And part of our people turned their back on him.
And the last time we snubbed him, one of the terrible tragedies, and they keep happening.
Every time we do something to tell Israel to divide their land or get whose land is it?
God says, It's my land.
It's his land.
Yes.
And he said, you don't give it up.
And every single time that we have come against Israel within 24 hours, we have experienced the most costliest disasters that America has ever experienced.
For example, Katrina, 9-11.
There are just so many different events.
I mean, the Word of God talks about how the Jewish people are the apple of God's eye.
And every time we do something to Israel, just get a visual of us literally poking God in his eye.
You can't poke the God of the universe in his eye and not expect anything in return.
But the craziness, too, Persia is where Esther was exactly.
Iran is now, this is the modern Persia nowadays.
And so if you look back, that's the same group of people that were trying to take out the Jews back then, and that's happening again today.
That's what the Prime Minister came here to warn us and ask for our help in this.
The Prime Minister said many powerful things.
I just want to share this one portion from the speech.
I just want to take a couple minutes because this thing is so important.
It's everything we've been discussing right now.
And he says this.
My friends, I've come here today because as Prime Minister of Israel, I feel a profound obligation to speak to you about an issue that could well threaten the survival of my country and the future of my people, Iran's quest for nuclear weapons.
We're an ancient people.
In our nearly 4,000 years of history, many have tried repeatedly to destroy the Jewish people.
Tomorrow night, on the Jewish holiday of Purim, we'll read the book of Esther.
We'll read of a powerful Persian viceroy named Amman who plotted to destroy the Jewish people some 2,500 years ago.
But a courageous Jewish woman, Queen Esther, exposed the plot and gained for the Jewish people the right to defend themselves against their enemies.
The plot was foiled.
Our people were saved.
Then he says this: Today, the Jewish people face another attempt by yet another Persian potentate to destroy us.
Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenai.
Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenai, spews the oldest hatred, the oldest hatred of anti-Semitism with the newest technology.
He tweets that Israel must be annihilated.
He tweets.
You know, in Iran, there isn't exactly free internet, but he tweets in English that Israel must be destroyed.
For those who believe that Iran threatens a Jewish state, but not the Jewish people, listen to Hassan Asrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, Iran's chief terrorist proxy.
He said, If all the Jews gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of chasing them down around the world.
Orchestrated God's Cycles 00:00:25
And he gives this speech the day before this feast happens.
All about the story of Esther presenting their case before the king.
It's simple, like we always talk about.
It's history repeating itself.
Where it's these interesting cycles of God that nobody could have orchestrated this but God Himself.
