The ancient prophet Zechariah wrote a prophecy from the Lord: "I will make Jerusalem a cup that will stagger the surrounding peoples...When that day comes, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who try to lift it will hurt themselves, and all the earth's nations will be massed against her." This prophecy taken directly from the Hebrew translation speaks of the Day of the Lord, but a type and shadow of this prophecy is playing out before our very eyes in Jerusalem as Islamic forces from the Arab world amass today on Israel's borders in conjunction with "Land Day." Facebook pages of the Global March to Jerusalem are showing minute to minute updates of thousands gathering on Israel's borders.

The organizers of the Global March on Jerusalem said it would be peaceful. They knew full well, however, that Israel would not let them cross the borders. It is reported that tens of thousands of Islamists were flown in from Iran and Indonesia and were trained by Hezbollah and other terrorist groups for this "peaceful" March. Already, the Facebook page for the march shows images of anti-Israel and anti-American protesters throwing and burning things to protest what Islam believes is an occupation of Arab land. One photo caption on Facebook reads "Within the events of the World March towards Jerusalem. Thousands of Indians participated in the walk and burn the Zionist flag."

Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, India, Iran, Indonesia, Egypt, and more are participating in the event that coincides with the annual protest of what the terrorists believe to be Israeli "occupation." Debkafile reports that "special flights carrying thousands of pro-Palestinian activists from Tehran touched down in Damascus Tuesday, March 27 for the international Global March to Jerusalem Friday, March 30. Before taking off, they were split into small groups and tutored by Iranian Al Qods Brigades officers in tactics for breaching Israeli border barriers, bursting through and challenging the Israeli military forces defending the border." Debkafile said that upon arrival Hezbollah officers stood by to lead them to villages close to Israel's border.

At the time of this post, Debkafile is reporting Israel forces opened fire to halt Palestinian demonstrators marching on the Gaza-Israeli border and crossings...There were also violent clashes between Jerusalem security forces and disorderly Palestinian demonstrators in North Jerusalem, after riots were thwarted on the Temple Mount and Damascus Gate. Troops are on orders to block West Bank demonstrators from storming into Israel. Around 20,000 Palestinians are reported marching in Jordan toward the Israel border. In Lebanon, demonstrators clashed with army units." While this is not the fulfillment of the Zechariah prophecy, it is a very real demonstration of how it can quickly play out.

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
