A Word from the Lord for YOU

Dear Friend,

Beloved, I woke a little after three this morning with a burden from the Lord and a word from the Lord for you. I have been in prayer since that time. It’s now ten minutes past five, and I’ve been instructed by the Holy Spirit to share the word of the Lord and the burden of the Lord with you.

Recently, 143 nations at the U.N. voted in favor of a Palestinian State, 25 nations abstained, and only nine nations voted in support of Israel. 

There have been not dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of terrorist attacks by Palestinians killing Jews in the last few decades, and the unspeakable massacre that took place on October 7, the worst the Jewish people have ever seen since the Holocaust with babies burned alive, people beheaded, tortured, and raped. 

In my spirit, I can hear the words of the prophet Isaiah:
“For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication shines out like the dawn,
her salvation like a blazing torch…
I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem;
they will never be silent day or night” (Is. 62:1, 6).

Since I was 11 years old when my father strangled me and left me for dead because I attempted to defend my Jewish mother from his abuse, I have been combating Jew-hatred.

That’s what gave birth to the ten Boom Holocaust Museum, the Friends of Zion Center, and the Jerusalem Prayer Team. I’ve been pastoring the nation of Israel for decades.

I was chosen by God to prophesy over Benjamin Netanyahu more than 40 years ago when he was grieving his brother’s death that he’d be the prime minister of Israel. And I was chosen by God to tell Prime Minister Menachem Begin the prophecy and asked him to give Benjamin a job in the government. He did, and the rest is history.

The ninth President of Israel, the late His Excellency Shimon Peres, was the international chairman of Friends of Zion. His grandfather, a cantor, rabbi and Talmud teacher, and his hero, along with my great-grandfather, the chief rabbi of the same synagogue, were burned to death with 2,000 Jews in a wooden synagogue. Virtually every Jew in that town was forced into the synagogue, as they lit it on fire, and the people outside screamed, “Christ killers!”

Shimon Peres told me in the 1990s that the new wars of the 21st century would be ideological wars, media wars, economic wars, and proxy wars. Those are the wars that are being fought right now.

On the university campuses in America, 51% of the students believe that Israel should not exist and Hamas, the terrorist organization, should be given the state of Israel.

I can’t even comprehend such evil and folly.

In those same universities, tens of billions of dollars have been poured in by Muslim countries to buy chairs to influence those students to believe such lies. 

Virtually every nation on earth has turned against the nation of Israel. It’s hard to understand when there are two billion Muslims in the world, and only seven million Jews.

More than 50% of the rioters on the university campus were not university students. They were organized by the Muslim Brotherhood, the same organization that supported Hitler and the Nazi Party and supported Osama bin Laden. Hamas has taught every child for 17 years in Gaza that Jews have horns and tails, that they are the seed of Satan, and that every Jew in the world must die.

The battle that Israel is fighting in Rafah is so vitally important because Rafah is on the border of Egypt. It’s where all the terrorists come and go. They have tunnels in Rafah so they can escape in and out of Gaza and they can also bring money and arms into Gaza through Rafah. They also run drugs and sex workers through the Sinai through Rafah, trading arms to kill Jews.

Of the 132 hostages that have suffered unspeakable hell, and the precious families that have been grieving them for over 225 days, it is believed that only around 33 of them are alive. It’s increasingly likely that all the women hostages are dead. They were being raped four times a day.

To think that the Biden administration would freeze shipping arms to Israel because Israel wants to defeat Hamas, rescue the surviving hostages, and then end the war. It is beyond my comprehension to understand.

1982, I was hosting Prime Minister Menachem Begin of Israel on his trip to America. Right afterward, he met with a young senator on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee who had threatened Israel. The senator said they would cut off military aid for Israel if Israel didn’t get out of Lebanon. That senator was Joe Biden.

Begin told Biden that day, “Don’t threaten me or the nation of Israel. I’m not a Jew with trembling knees. Nobody came to our aid when we were in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying, fighting to birth this nation. We will stand by our principles with God’s help, and we will defend them, and when necessary we will die for them again with or without your aid.”

Every day I receive reports from Israel of more young people who have been killed, young soldiers mostly in their 20s. The number now is 642 since October 7. The only thing they’re trying to do is defend the Jewish state against demon-possessed terrorists who want them all destroyed.

The battle you and I are fighting is a battle between darkness and light. Demons don’t clear customs. The demons that birthed the Holocaust in the 1930s began spreading their evil lies on university campuses in Germany, similar to how they’ve happened in America.

I wept as I heard the students screaming on the campuses, “Make us proud. Kill another soldier now. October 7 will not happen one more time or five more times or 10 more times but 10,000 more times. Never let up, never let down, until Zionism is destroyed and the Zionists start to hide like Nazis. Say it loud, say it clear, we don’t want Zionists here. From the river to the sea, Palestine is all you see. Jews go back to Poland.”

The entire world is focusing on around two million Muslims living in Gaza. But they never talk about the almost two million Muslims who live in Israel who get free health care and have the best life of any Muslims in the world. They are doctors, attorneys, politicians, bankers, shop owners and yes, they can protest in Israel, and they do. But if they did that in Saudi Arabia, they would be in prison or beheaded.

All of this is happening because Iran is within 120 days of having enough enriched uranium to build an atomic bomb. If Hitler had an atomic bomb, we’d all be speaking German. If Osama bin Laden had one, New York City and Washington, D.C., would have new names reminiscent of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

This is all being driven by Iran and their obsession to usher in the twelfth descendant of Muhammad, the Mahdi, the Islamic Messiah, and they believe they can do it through an apocalypse.

Every nation that has lifted its hand against the Jewish people throughout history is in the dustpan of history. The prophet Zechariah declares, “On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves” (Zechariah 12:3).

That’s precisely what’s going on right now.

The terrorists in Gaza are trying to kill the bodies of Jews. And the godless leftists in America are trying to kill their souls. It’s a marriage made in hell. Their belief is that a perfect world is a weak, anemic America that embraces the perpetrator and castigates the victims.

I recently met with my beloved friend Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel and asked him, “What is the most important thing we can do to help the nation of Israel?” He said to me, “Reach the next generation.”

A recent survey showed that 51% of 18 to 24-year-olds in America think Israel should be ended and the land given to Hamas. They get the news and information that shapes their worldview from their iPhones and social networks, and most of it is lies. I told the Prime Minister that we would do it, and I’m writing to unburden my soul to you right now.

To answer that challenge, we are launching Operation Bright Star under the leadership of the Holy Spirit. 

The Lord gave me the Scripture from Daniel 12:3: “Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.” 

This is the theme of Operation Bright Star.

The enemies of Israel are making enormous sacrifices on behalf of their cause. The enemies of Israel are collecting offerings from all over the world on behalf of their cause. We’ve got to rally behind our cause.

This is a battle for the soul of the nation of Israel, and for that matter, the soul of America. God says, “I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee” (Genesis 12:3).

The battle that we’re waging was not fought in Germany in 1933 when the universities were doing the same thing as they’re doing in America. Because it was not fought, ultimately, the churches in Germany supported Hitler and the Nazi Party and put swastikas on their altars.

My beloved friend and partner, the nation of Israel considers us the top social network organization in the world combating anti-Semitism. But we must do more. I told you that half of the country is getting their news on social media, and they are being fed a stream of lies designed to shape their opinions…and to turn them against Israel.

To fight against that we must produce and share massive amounts of videos that combat lies with the truth. We must purchase advertisements to draw people’s attention. And we can’t do it without you. 

To do what God has laid on our hearts, we must raise $500,000 immediately to launch the next phase of this effort. Just as Jew-haters are sponsoring the attacks on Israel, you can sponsor the defense of Israel through your support.

Today I’m asking you to prayerfully consider becoming a Founder of Operation Bright Star with your gift of $1,000 or more. On our Friends of Zion Center campus in Jerusalem, there will be a tree for Operation Bright Star Founders. On that tree will be leaves, and each leaf will include the name of a person who has given or someone they wish to honor. That tree will be in Jerusalem not for one year, five years, 10 years, 20 years, or 50 years, but for 100 years.

I’m asking you, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit as I unburden my soul in my prayer room, to put your name on that tree and seriously consider putting the name of every one of your children.

In 10 years or 25 years or 50 years from now when you’re gone, nothing you have had will be remembered more than your legacy in Jerusalem. That’s what one of my partners said to me when I shared with him this vision.

He asked me the question, “Why does the world hate the Jews?” And I said to him, “Just imagine what the world would be like without the Jews. If there had never been Jews, there would be no Ten Commandments, there would be no monotheism or even Christianity. And all of the scientific and medical miracles that have happened throughout the world, thanks to the Jews that have saved more than a billion lives, would have never happened. Satan hates the Jews because he knows what his ultimate end will be.”

The Operation Bright Star Founders tree that will be in Jerusalem, is much like the one described in the book Revelation — its leaves will be for the healing of the nation.  

I want to ask you right now to prayerfully consider having your name in Jerusalem as one of the leaves on the tree.

You might say, “I can’t give such a gift at this moment.” But maybe you can over the next year or more. People talk about leaving a legacy. But I can’t think of a greater legacy than coming to the aid of the Jewish people in their time of greatest crisis.

Corrie ten Boom did, and she has not been forgotten. Please be as generous as you can. I would be so thrilled if every one of our partners added a leaf to the tree, even if it meant doing it through a $50 monthly pledge for the next 20 months.

Since the age of 11 when my father strangled me and left me for dead, I have not feared death. I’ve already faced it. The only thing I fear is not doing something great for God, and I am stepping up by faith to do something great for God right now. And God honors that faith.

I am asking you to join me, in the magnificent name of Jesus. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. No gift is too small or too great. You are God’s hands of love. Thank you for caring enough to make a difference. May the Holy Spirit confirm to you right now the significance of these words and may the Lord receive all the glory.

P.S. We must not fail to answer God’s call to stand in the gap for His Chosen People by reaching the next generation through Operation Bright Star. And we must not fail to bring help and comfort to the suffering souls in Israel. We urgently need your help right now to meet the financial challenges of these vital outreaches. Thank you in advance for your generous response.
