Heaven forbid we should mention God is with us


Two Gaza rockets explode in Tel Aviv area. No casualties
"Israeli ground forces continue to build up on the Gaza border awaiting government orders to go in."

I've noticed how the mainstream media (even the IDF) is calling the impending ground operation in Gaza the : "pillar of defense", which makes absolutely no sense. More honest sources correctly use the Hebrew label of this upcoming operation as the 'pillar of cloud' referring directly to one of the manifestations of the presence of God to Israel, during their 40 year exodus in the desert. It's sad, but very telling, how most people go out of their way to not mention, or even hint at, the God of Israel. Understatement of the century - but are they ever going to be sadly surprised when the God of Israel intervenes directly against Israel's surrounding enemies. See verses from Ezekiel 38 that I posted yesterday. It's definitely coming!


Exodus 33:8-11

New Living Translation (NLT)
Whenever Moses went out to the Tent of Meeting, all the people would get up and stand in the entrances of their own tents. They would all watch Moses until he disappeared inside.As he went into the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and hover at its entrance while the Lord spoke with Moses. 10 When the people saw the cloud standing at the entrance of the tent, they would stand and bow down in front of their own tents. 11 Inside the Tent of Meeting, the Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. Afterward Moses would return to the camp, but the young man who assisted him, Joshua son of Nun, would remain behind in the Tent of Meeting.


Why Israel Is Calling the Operation in Gaza ‘Pillar of Defense’
