The pattern continues

As I have shown repeatedly here in the blog, there is a pattern throughout history of catastrophic events befalling nations who in their foreign policy or rhetoric take a stand against Israel. This is in line with God's promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3 to bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel.

Recently we have seen the pattern continue in Great Britain. On April 9, Britain's Advertising Standards Authority cancelled an Israeli ad promoting tourism citing as its reason that some lands claimed rightfully by Israel, as they were given to her by God, were actually disputed and not a part of Israel. Disputing Israel's right to this land advising against travel there has proved a mistake.

Days later a volcano in Iceland erupted that shut down air travel in Great Britain and cost the nation $200 million a day according to one report by Fox News Chanel. I find it ironic that a statement discouraging travel to Israel led to a disruption in travel in Britain.

Some would say this is just a coincidence, but the historical pattern is too great to deny God is acting in accordance with His word to bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse her.
