It has been far too long since I have had an entry on the blog hear and to the tens of you that follow me I apologize. I have been getting into the groove of being a father. My free time sure isn't what it used to be. Truth be told, my son is setting on my lap as I type this. I'm starting him out young.
Today I read an article that finally prompted me to resume the blog. It seems that in regard to Biblical end time prophecy we go through seasons where it seems there is great activity and seasons of lulls. It appears we may be on the cusp of a season of activity.

According to the above article from Foxnews.com, talks will resume in Washington D.C. tomorrow between the Israelis and the Palestinians. The speculated end game of these talks is the creation of a Palestinian state. The resumption of the talks is due to the work of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Tomorrow's talks come on the heals of last week's report that Ze'ev Elkin, Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister, claimed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be willing to give up 86% of the West Bank in a peace deal with the Palestinians.
Joel chapter 3 tells us God will bring his judgment on those nations that divide his land. This will take place at we refer to as the Battle of Armageddon. However we have seen the pattern of the U.S. suffering catastrophic consequences on the heels taking major stands against Israel and pushing for the division of her land.
While the finality of God's judgment on those who divide Israel will take place at Armageddon, I fear we may once again face immediate consequences from pressuring Israel to give up land to make peace.
It's time for those who love God, love Israel, and love the U.S. to stand in prayer for wisdom for our leaders.
