The Old Testament is the history of how God's chosen people are lifted up and unbeatable when they follow the commands of God. When the chosen turn their backs on God he (eventually) turns them over to their enemies.
You have to wonder if what we're seeing from Israel is the result of God cleansing His chosen.
Proverbs 24 - Saying 28 17Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice, 18or the Lord will see and disapprove and turn his wrath away from them.
Edit: Just saying...ya done good.
There's a lot that cannot be explained outright. I was in a prayer the other day and out of the blue a close friend that died early in the covid scare (was vented) came to mind. He was a Christian mentor and a dear friend. Out of the blue I asked God to say hello to him for me.
I kid you not, I caught out of the corner of my eye my monitor for security cams. There are six cameras and they all have motion detection. The instant I made the request to God all six cameras detected motion and began recording. The hair stood up on the back of my neck.
I watched but there was nothing that should of set off the motion detection.
