The Lord’s ways are pure;
the words of the Lord are refined in the furnace;
the Lord protects all who hope in him.
For what God is there, but our Lord?
What help, but in the Lord our God?

- Psalm 18

YOYO: “You’re On Your Own”

• (Everyone in Big Cities ALREADY Understands This)
• If Invaders Come to YOUR Home - WHAT Will You Do?
• “Call the POLICE?” How Long Till They Get There?
• How Long For Invaders to Break IN/Kill You?
• Will Police EVEN RESPOND?
• Will Cops Risk THEIR Lives to Save YOU?
• What Did Cops Do in Shootings? STOOD OUTSIDE!
• GET REAL: You’re On Your Own (YOYO)!!

I shall count Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me.
The Philistines, Tyrians, Ethiopians –
all have their birthplace here.
Of Zion it will be said “Here is the birthplace of all people:
the Most High himself has set it firm.”

- Psalm 87

Why Did Jesus Come to “Such a Backward Time and Such a Strange Land”?

• Judas’ Question from “Jesus Christ Superstar” Opera
• God’s Rule “Extends Over the Whole Earth” - Ps 105
• Why Did God Make ISRAEL “The Promised Land”?
• Israel is LAND BRIDGE Connecting Three Continents
• Could Reach Whole Known World From There
• TIMING? Roman EMPIRE Had Roads, Free Passage
• GOSPEL Spread Far and Wide After Resurrection
• Geopolitical Facts MATTER

He had sent a man to them, Joseph,
and he was sold as a slave.
They confined his feet in fetters and put a ring around his neck –
until the Lord’s word came, the Lord spoke and justified him.
The king sent for him and released him –
the ruler of the peoples set him free.
He set him to rule over his house.

- Psalm 105

“I Guess We’ll Just Have to Make the BEST of It!”

Faced with Tough Circumstances, We Often Say This

Time and again, God’s People Were Placed in Peril

They ASKED GOD FOR HELP - and God Made the BEST of It!

Don’t Ever Forget to Ask for Help - You’ll Have the BEST Life!

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.

- Psalm 118

But ‘Enough, enough!’ I say.
‘Woe to the traitors who betray,
to the traitors who treacherously betray!’

- Isaiah 24

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

WHEN is it the “Right” Time to ”Lower the Hammer”?

Are the Traitors STILL Trying to KILL US? (Yes.)
Are They STILL Trying to ENSLAVE Us? (Yes.)
Are They STILL Going After Our CHILDREN? (Yes.)
Have They Been Given Plenty of Chances to REPENT? (Yes.)

They’re “Enemy Combatants”! That Has Consequences.

Yes, the sluice-gates above will open,
and the foundations of the earth will rock.
The earth will split into fragments,
the earth will be riven and rent.
The earth will shiver and shake,
the earth will stagger like a drunkard,
sway like a shanty...
The moon will hide her face, the sun be ashamed,
for the Lord of Hosts will be king

- Isaiah 24

He has brought low those who lived high up
in the steep citadel;
he brings it down, brings it down to the ground,
flings it down in the dust:
the feet of the lowly, the footsteps of the poor
trample on it.

- Isaiah 25
