Netanyahu Hopes Obama Won't Screw Israel One Last Time
Thursday, October 13, 2016 | Israel Today Staff
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hopes US President Barack Obama won’t use his final months in office to help the Palestinians unilaterally declare an independent state.
Something similar happened during the final “lame duck” months of Bill Clinton’s presidency, when he oversaw the Taba Summit that attempted to harness Israel with fresh obligations and concessions.
“I can only hope that the US’s consistent policy will continue to the end of his [Obama’s] tenure,” Netanyahu said in an interview with Channel 2 News. “I want an agreement whereby the Palestinians will recognize our state, just as we will recognize theirs. … Their refusal to recognize [Israel] as the national home of the Jewish people, in any borders, remains the heart of the conflict.”
There has been some speculation that the Palestinian leadership in the coming months could petition the United Nations to recognize an independent “Palestine,” and that Obama would decine to veto the resolution.
Israeli government minister Tzachi Hanegbi warned in remarks to Army Radio that Obama is “naive and messianic,” making him dangerous up until his last day in office.
“Obama is not acting like the most powerful man in the world,” said Hanegbi. “Instead he is behaving like someone working in Hillary Clinton’s campaign office.”

Violent antisemitism and hatred did not end with the defeat of Nazi Germany and is very much on the rise in Europe and the Middle East. This film explains how this rising antisemitic violence is a threat to all of our freedom, not just the Jews.

What Do the 'Catholic Emails' Say About the Clinton Campaign's View on Evangelicals?
By now, everyone has heard about the emails between Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, John Podesta, and a liberal advocacy group that was bent on launching a "Catholic Spring" uprising.
The goal: to get the Roman Catholic Church to "soften" its positions on key social issues, such as abortion and same-sex "marriage." And not surprisingly—according to a batch of "Podesta emails" released by WikiLeaks—the Clinton camp thought that would be a splendid idea.
The "Catholic Emails" weren't just an attack on Catholics, but rather an attack on Christians in general.
One particular email included mockery and bigotry that would have been deemed unbearable if they had been uttered by someone with an "R" behind his or her name. In it, John Halpin, a "senior fellow" at the Center for American Progress, asserted:
Friggin' Murdoch baptized his kids in Jordan where John the Baptist baptized Jesus. Many of the most powerful elements of the conservative movement are all Catholic (many converts) from the SC and think tanks to the media and social groups. It's an amazing bastardization of the faith. They must be attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy.
The email was sent to Podesta and Clinton Campaign Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri. Palmieri—who at the time the email was sent was also working for the Center for American Progress—was the first to respond:
I imagine they think it is the most socially acceptable politically conservative religion. Their rich friends wouldn't understand if they became evangelicals.
Podesta then chimed in:
Excellent point. They can throw around "Thomistic" thought and "subsidiarity" and sound sophisticated because no one knows what the [expletive] they're talking about.
Donald Trump's campaign convened a meeting of its Catholic Advisory Group on Wednesday to address the issue. And several members of the group released the following statement:
For 30 years, Hillary Clinton has harbored open and extreme hostility to issues of importance to Catholics. She is for partial-birth abortion and thinks taxpayers should pay for it. She also supports denying full and free exercise of the Catholic faith of the Little Sisters of the Poor, who have taken care of the elderly poor since 1839, through Obamacare's HHS mandate, recently struck down by the Supreme Court. The mandate would have forced these Catholic sisters to pay for contraceptives and abortion pills in their health care plan or else face crippling government fines that would have shut their doors and ended their charitable work if they refused to abide by this onerous and unconstitutional rule.
The emails published by WikiLeaks reveal the depths of the hostility of Hillary Clinton and her campaign toward Catholics, and the open anti-Catholic bigotry of her senior advisors, who attack the deeply held beliefs and theology of Catholics.
These Clinton advisers, viciously mocking Catholics as they have, turn the clock back to the days of the 20th century "No Catholics Need Apply" type of discrimination.
Hillary Clinton and her campaign should be ashamed of themselves and should immediately apologize to all Catholics and people of good will in the United States.
The same could apply to evangelicals too.

Hashem thy God is in the midst of thee a Mighty One who will save; He will rejoice over thee with joy He will be silent in His love He will joy over thee with singing.’
Zephania describes in triumphant terms the result of God’s judgement. Having removed evil from the world, He will allow the remnant of Israel to live safely in its land, knowing that God dwells among the People of Israel in the Land of Israel. God Himself will rejoice and sing when He sees His people dwell without fear of evil in the land. Those that merit to live in the Holy Land today know that God appointed a very special group to fulfill His mission of purging Israel of any evil within. Since 1948 when the state was established, the Israel Defense Forces have worked tirelessly to defend Israel's borders and save her people within. Even amid the most horrific battle during the holiest day of the year, the Yom Kippur War, thousands of soldiers left their spot in synagogue to protect the land they love. Today we remember those special men who gave their lives so we could live.
The cantor and incredible choir of the Israeli Defense Forces sing U’netaneh Tokef, the highlight of Yom Kippur liturgy, which concerns God determining who will die and who will live in the coming year. The moving video is intercut with scenes from the 1973 Yom Kippur War reminding us just how fragile life truly is.
In the most difficult days of the Yom Kippur War, when the fate of Israel was hanging in the balance, Yanush and his brave soldiers defended the northern borders with their bodies. Yanush was a gifted military leader with extraordinary inspiration and outstanding courage.
Pictured is an Israeli Defense Forces tank in the Golan Heights during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. The war broken out on October 6 when the Egyptian-Syrian coalition launched a surprise attack on the Jewish state. A short 19 days later, the war mercifully ended. Though the IDF won the war, they lost thousands of men who sacrificed their lives for the sake of Israel.

Scriptures
Matthew 25:1-13 MEV “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be like ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.Five of them were wise and five were foolish.Those who were foolish took their lamps, but took no oil with them.But the wise took jars of oil with their lamps.While the bridegroom delayed, they all rested and slept. “But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Look, the bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’ “Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.But the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.’ “The wise answered, ‘No, lest there not be enough for us and you. Go rather to those who sell it, and buy some for yourselves.’ “But while they went to buy some, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut. “Afterward, the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open the door for us.’ “But he answered, ‘Truly I say to you, I do not know you.’ “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
Matthew 24:7 NIV Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
Isaiah 9:10 KJV The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.
Isaiah 5:20 KJV Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
When the Lord spoke to me in August 2016 about the things that will begin to take place in October 2016, He said, "There is an October Surprise." I didn't know whether it would be good or bad.
What we have to remember about a surprise is that it is always a disclosure of things that have been hidden. The October surprise is just beginning. As it turns out it's not just one surprise but many surprises.
Below are bullet points on some good things He said would begin at Rosh Hashanah, Oct. 2, 2016:
Realignment of Relationships
The winds of apostolic change are blowing across the land and realigning you. The Lord is ready to re-position you for His kingdom harvest. Some who have been with you in the past can't go to the place God is taking you. Be willing to cut unhealthy soul ties and move forward into an ordained destiny. At Rosh Hashanah (begins Oct. 2), the Lord will unlock brand-new doors of destiny for you. Let go of your baggage. It can't go to the new place the Lord has for your destiny.
Realignment of Assignment
Jesus said, if it's not bearing fruit cut it off. There is a realignment of assignment that is coming to you. Take inventory of what your ministry is doing. Is it bearing fruit? If it's not bearing fruit, it's time to move on. Leave it. As we come into Rosh Hashanah (Oct. 2) the Lord is going to impart new assignments. With these new assignments will come another level of authority to accomplish His plan in the earth. Make sure that you discard old baggage and get out of baggage claim. Stop rehearsing your trauma and drama. A new, unusual and exciting assignment is coming your way.
Realignment of Vision
The Holy Spirit continues to send apostolic winds realigning your vision. How do you see? Do you see God bring a greater awakening (National Revival) into the earth or do you see it having no hope? Do you see the way heaven sees? Heaven sees in seven dimensions, and heaven responds to what it sees (Zech. 4:10; Rev. 5:6). Align your vision with heaven and you will begin to receive heavenly results.
Doomsday preachers offer little to no hope. It's because man is reacting to what he sees in the earth rather than responding to the vision of heaven. There is hope if you begin seeing the way heaven sees. At Rosh Hashanah, the Lord will impart new vision. His vision will release heaven into Earth. Will you respond or react? Prune your negative mindset that has no faith and begin responding in faith to Christ's vision. A new vision awaits you!
Realignment of Identity
Holy Spirit continues to send you apostolic winds to realign you for His kingdom purpose. These winds are here to challenge your identity. Some today have a false identity and can't find their way. Those in LGBTQ community struggle with having a true identification. Some within the church have found their identity in pastors, programs, function and ministry. The co-dependency between ministers and sheep has created identification dysfunction. You're so busy with things you haven't found the "One Thing" (Ps. 27:4).
Your distinction can only be found in Christ. Realignment of your identity is essential in order for you to fulfill His destiny in your life. At Rosh Hashanah, a huge reset began to take place. Be ready, forsake your former identity and go after Him, and you will be found in Him (Phil. 3:9). As you go after Him, you will take on His character. In Him I live and move, and have my being (Acts 17:28).
Realignment of Paradigms
The winds of apostolic change continue to blow in your life. These winds are blowing against the paradigms that keep you from moving forward into your God inheritance. Think differently! When John the Baptist and Jesus said, "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand," they were saying, "Think differently because the kingdom of heaven is here." Beginning at Rosh Hashanah, watch as paradigm shifts begin to take place. Think differently—heaven will open up over you and your inheritance will begin to come in.("Repent," Greek word metanoia, means to think differently.)
Ken Maloneis being used by God to mobilize the body of Christ throughout Florida and the nation. After being a pastor for 24 years, Ken has recently stepped down from a pastoral position. This has allowed God to launch Ken into his apostolic role within Florida and the nation. He is an ordained minister and serves as the founder of Forerunner Ministries and serves on the board of Dutch Sheets Ministries. Ken also serves as one of the leaders of Network Ekklesia International, an Apostolic Network founded by Dutch Sheets. Ken walks in a governmental apostolic mantle that releases the body of Christ into their destiny. He also ministers with a prophetic, seer anointing which enables him to identify activate and release redemptive gifts in individuals, churches and cities.
