Why does Israel have a right to exist?

The world at times appears united against the little nation of Israel. Why is that the case? Why does a nation that is about the size of New Jersey draw so much attention? After all the Arab nations that surround her have plenty of territory and oil to boot. The reason Israel is such a magnet for the rest of the world to wonder after is because of her relationship to the God of the Bible.

When Abraham accepted the call of God on his life to separate himself from the world and pursue what God had for him, which was to found the nation of Israel, he was not aware of his destiny and how the choices he was to make would impact the world from his time to the one we are living in now. For God promised Abraham a son, which in the natural world would seem impossible because when the promise came Abraham was nearly 80 years of age and Sarah his wife was close to 70. They waited nearly twenty years for the promise to be filled and along the way they tried to help God out. Sarah encouraged Abraham to take one of her servants and conceive with her. Obviously this was not God's plan. The result produced Ishmael, who became the father of the Arabs. The fight between the Jews and Arabs starts here.

But despite the failings of those who were following the God of Israel, the Lord granted the land that the Jews now inherit to be their land. The Canaanites were a sinful bunch that worshiped false gods and the Lord gave the land to Abraham and his descendants. Joshua and the generation he led were the ones who took possession and according to the promise made to Abraham, the Jews are the rightful owners.

So when you hear the president trying to give land to the Muslims and hoping to make peace between the Arabs and the Jews through this action realize that this is not in accordance to what the God of the Bible will is for the Jewish people. God laid out the boundaries of the land for His people from the Bible. Giving land for peace is not a part of the agreement. The Bible also states that once God puts His people back into their land that He will not allow them to be moved out of it again.

In 1948 the land of Israel was reestablished. The Jews are here to stay. Israel will not be removed from the land it now has possession of. No terrorists, Iranian threat or action will force them out. Because the Lord God is there defender and He will see them through any and all threats to their existence. Do you I believe that Israel should be able to defend herself? Absolutely! I truly believe that as the end of the world continues to draw closer and closer that the battle over Israel will only grow greater. Because the land she is on is the place where Satan and his minions were defeated. The cross trumped the power of sin, God redeemed mankind from this place. That is why the devil fights so hard to take this ground. He wants revenge and a hope to redeem himself from the defeat that was enforced there by Christ's sacrifice.

When all is said and done the final battle will be fought in Israel at the battle of Armageddon. And once again the enemy of mankind will taste defeat, as God, through Christ, will triumph. Keep trying devil. But no matter what you do or say, Israel is here to stay.
