Happy Birthday Israel, 66 years ago today the 14th day of May 1948, she was born as a nation for the first time in 2000 years. Prophesy was fulfilled one more time that day just as God said it would. A nation was born in one day then.
Isaiah 66:8 ""Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Can a land be born in one day? Can a nation be brought forth all at once? As soon as Zion travailed, she also brought forth her sons."

Children Shall Rule Them
Children Shall Rule Them
Has anyone noticed that children seem to rule this nation and their families, in various ways?
How many families have we met in which the children call all the shots. When they don't get their way they have a tantrum and the parents immediately give them what they want to stop the tantrum, instead of disciplining them to teach them respect rather than self indulgence.
We see the consequences of this mentality of lack of training in our culture every day. We see young children slapping their own parents in the face while the parent giggles in embarrassment.
We see children who are never content with what they have, they lack gratefulness, manners and kindness, nothing seems to satisfy them except temporarily while they are getting a new present or toy.
The parents of these children are frustrated all the time, using yelling as their method in an attempt to get their children to obey, but it doesn't work. The parents of these children do not enjoy their children, they are wanting to leave them with baby sitters and Grandmas often to escape the little monsters.
God spoke of this in His Word. These children grow to be the leaders of companies and nations. They love themselves with little regard for others, this is the plight of our nation and many families right now.
Isaiah 3:11-13
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
"11 Woe to the wicked! It will go badly with him, For what he deserves will be done to him.
12 O My people! Their oppressors are children, And women rule over them.
O My people! Those who guide you lead you astray And confuse the direction of your paths. God Will Judge
13 The Lord arises to contend, And stands to judge the people."
