Today on October 1, 2024 Iran has launched another direct missile attack on Israel. Thankfully Israel with the help of the American military was able to successfully defend itself.
I write about Israel because America's well being depends on its relationship. I believe God blessed America greatly after World War 2, because America contributed greatly in defeating Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany was actively persecuting and killing millions of Jews. Had it not been for America, Hitler and the Nazis could have succeeded in carrying out the "Final Solution" of exterminating the Jews. After defeating the Nazis and recognizing the nation state of Israel, America became very prosperous for the next several decades after World War 2.
In Genesis 12:3, it reads "I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all families of the earth shall be blessed." This verse is a promise and a warning to gentiles in regards to how they treat the seed of Abraham. There is a blessing for those that bless Jews and a curse for antisemitism.
As of now, America has still been standing strong with Israel, despite the fact that we have a Democrat administration. Joe Biden has made a lot of bad policy choices, but one thing he is still doing well is continuing to support Israel. America should continue to send aid so that Israel can defend itself and defeat all its enemies.
I believe that as long as America continues to support Israel, America will still have God's blessing on this nation. But if America were to turn against Israel, then I would be concerned of greater judgments to come upon America.
As American Christians, we must pray for and also elect politicians that are supportive of Israel. More importantly we must pray for Jerusalem as commanded in the Bible. Psalm 122:6 "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: May they prosper who love you."
