Please pray for the Jews
Not only is Antisemitism increasing in the world, but also in Western & European countries.
There has been a rise in verbal harassment & vi*lent attacks.
This is a very serious issue.
And the reasons for this is an extremist attitude against the innocent Jews,
A split being caused on purpose, between the Christians & Jews,
& purposely denying, 
knowing fully well, that the holocaust took place.
Whereas the holocause was one of the saddest times when the innocent Jews were persecuted.
Satan has been busy trying to create a distance between the Jews & the Christians,
Knowing fully well, that God has chosen them as the apple of His eyes.
Please pray for the safety, protection & peace for the Jews in the world.
They are genuinely good people who are just being harassed & blamed falsely.
But God can see the truth.
May God keep helping His beloved chosen people.
Lord have mercy,
Amen.

I join in praying for peace and safety for all people. Yet it seems we are returning to a kind of Babel, where words lose their biblical meaning and confusion increases.

Christ, the Husband, gave His bride previously called her Israel a new and fitting name—Christian—a people gathered from every nation named after her husband and founder of the eternal city Christ. Christian a befitting name to name the bride of all nations 
 
When God's Word is set aside, confusion grows, even within households. Patience gives way to anger, forgiveness to division, and truth to misunderstanding hiding becomes a defense  .

There will likely continue to be conflict between nations until the Lord's purposes are fulfilled.

We should pray for temporal peace while remembering that God's everlasting covenant is ultimately fulfilled through His redemptive plan.
The foundation of that testimony begins in Genesis. God promised Sarah a son:

Genesis 17:19 — "Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him."

The names themselves remind us of God's work: Isaac ("he laughs") and Ishmael ("God hears"). The gospel calls all people to hear God's voice and receive the spiritual understanding that comes by faith.

When Jesus spoke with Nicodemus, a respected teacher of Israel, He pointed back to truths that had their foundation in Genesis:

"Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again... Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?" (John 3:7-10)

The preaching of the gospel gives life to those who are spiritually dead. Christ's parables enrich the historical record without changing history, revealing the unseen realities of God's kingdom to those who believe.

Genesis also establishes the pattern of faith. Cain, the firstborn, represents confidence in what man possesses. Abel, the second-born, vanity trusted by faith and became the first martyr. After Abel's death, God appointed another seed through Seth, and then Enos:

Genesis 4:25-26 — "For God... hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel... And to Seth... there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD."

From that promised seed, generation after generation, God preserved His testimony until the coming of Jesus Christ.

Scripture also uses names such as Israel and Jew in more than one sense. Paul writes that true identity before God is not merely outward, but inward—a work of the Spirit. The promise of new birth is offered to people from every nation who hear the gospel and believe.

May God grant us ears to hear His living Word, hearts to receive His truth, and the grace to be born again through faith in Christ.
