ISRAEL THREATENED AND PRAYERS ARE NEEDED!

Iran's threat sending shockwaves through Israel

Mathew Staver Founder and Chairman Liberty Counsel Tensions are extremely high in Israel right now following an Iranian General’s threat this weekend that all of Israel’s bases are within easy reach of Iranian missiles. Please see my urgent update below – Mat. Conservatives, In a rant leaving no questions unanswered, the Lieutenant Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), declared this weekend that no enemy nation is exempt from Iran’s missile strike capabilities, including United States bases, and especially Israel, whose borders are easily within striking distance of Iran’s missile arsenal.  The Fars News Agency (FNA), Iran's independent news agency, is reporting that Brigadier General Hossein Salami said,   “Today, there is no base in the region lying outside the reach of the Iranian missiles. Wherever you imagine these bases are, they are within the reach of Iranian missiles," Salami reiterated, noting the range, power, and high precision-targeting capability of Iran's ground-to-ground, ground-to-air, and ballistic missiles.” “Iran has made giant progress in arms production, especially in area of missile technology, in the last decade.” Salami’s threats came as a United Nations contingency failed to convince Iranian leadership to cease their nuclear buildup. Iran is defiantly calling for an end to these negotiations. ++The threat to Israel has definitely intensified. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently said, “Iran wants to destroy Israel and it is developing nuclear weapons to fulfill that goal.”  Israel is now preparing itself for what many believe is inevitable – a nuclear strike by Iran if not preempted by the Israeli military.  Last week, Mr. Netanyahu again demanded that Iran cease its uranium enrichment program, while reiterating his belief that Iran’s real goal is the annihilation of the nation of Israel and is developing the nuclear weaponry to achieve that very goal.  Anita and I are in Israel right now and I can tell you firsthand that tensions here are very high – and security is significantly heightened.  This is an incredibly strategic time for the nation of Israel and its leaders – a time which will have eternal significance for the Jewish people and the people of every nation in the world.  I am calling on ALL of our Liberty Counsel friends to stand with Israel!  WE MUST STAND UNITED WITH ISRAEL! ++As I mentioned a few days ago, Anita and I are finishing our meetings in Israel after spending over a week there with a special delegation of Liberty Ambassador Counsel (LAC) members. We have been meeting with high-level Israeli cabinet members and government officials in furthering the development of LAC and cementing key relationships that will undergird its future. Quite frankly, I’m surprised that every friend of Liberty Counsel isn’t now a card-carrying member of our Liberty Ambassador Counsel program.  I have no doubt the group of LAC members who joined us in our current mission would add a resounding “Amen” to that sentiment. This mission has been incredible!  Anita and I are gathering our thoughts about how to best relate the awesome opportunities the Lord has brought to us – and therefore, to YOU – in this outreach to the nation of Israel. For now, let me say that the LAC is an exclusive opportunity to demonstrate unity with Israel and God’s chosen people – and to engage in a more direct way with the future of relations between our two nations. You will also be standing in the Lord’s affirmation and plan for the Church in these latter days! I urge you to take a minute and click here to join with tens of thousands of others who have chosen to stand with Israel by becoming a member of the Liberty Ambassador Counsel: http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=100277&CID=341&RID=35659527 ++Liberty Ambassador Counsel will soon observe its first anniversary! As I have mentioned before, last June, Anita and I had the honor of meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu and his staff for well over an hour and to spend additional time in a private meeting with the Prime Minister.   It was then that Mr. Netanyahu gave Liberty Counsel a special commission to form a group of evangelical Christians to act as ambassadors on behalf of his nation.  As you know, the Prime Minister’s suggested mission has since been organized and named Liberty Ambassador Counsel. Over the past year, the growing bond between Liberty Counsel and senior leaders in Israel is being affirmed through unique initiatives in education, public affairs, reciprocal spiritual support, and many other expressions of solidarity. Only the Lord could have orchestrated this amazing new relationship!  Now, on behalf of the Liberty Counsel family of ministries and the leadership of the nation of Israel, I am extending this special invitation…  ++We hope YOU will become an Israel Goodwill Ambassador! When you join the Liberty Ambassador Counsel, you will receive an official membership card bearing your name, receive periodic news updates along with unique educational products and even special travel opportunities.  LAC members will also participate in special prayer initiatives and have exceptional insight into the nation of Israel’s prayer needs. In fact, there will be an ongoing stream of new opportunities to support, pray with, and bless the nation of Israel for those participating in LAC! ++There is no cost to join – only great benefits! This simple act will activate both the Lord’s blessing and the other benefits to which your participation in LAC will entitle you.  Please click here to join the Liberty Ambassador Counsel program:  http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=100278&CID=341&RID=35659527 Dr. Ed Hindson, a revered Bible scholar, master teacher, and colleague, recently declared that, “The Middle East meltdown is leading to Muslim madness and the ultimate possibility of the march to Armageddon itself.” Here's an undeniable fact from Scripture:  When rulers or nations rise up against Israel, they become accursed!  The Bible clearly states that the Middle East is at the center of coming world events – and promises GREAT blessings to those who stand with Israel in those perilous times. I firmly believe that God’s favor rests on those who choose to stand with Israel.  I hope you will join the Liberty Ambassador Counsel…you will be part of a select group of people who not only proclaim support for Israel, but also directly help enhance U.S.-Israel relations.
