PM Netanyahu is Israel’s 21st Century Judah Macabee as Hamas is to Syrian’s Antiochus Epiphanes IV.
Shalom to you brothers and sisters in Yeshua. From the depth of my heart, I wish you a blessed Chag Sameach – Hanukah is a biblical Memorial Day of significant importance even though very little was mentioned about it. Even Yeshuah observed it, as mentioned in John 10:22 in the New Testament. It is called the Feast of Dedication (The same as Hanukah in Hebrew), and it was winter in Jerusalem. John 10:22–23 in the New Testament says, "Then came the Festival of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was in the temple courts walking in Solomon's Colonnade." Think of it this way: only God knew better; if there was no Hanukah, Jesus wouldn't have been born as several Old Testament prophets prophesized that he would be born in Bethlehem of Judah. The fate of Miriam and Josef, the earthly Parents of Jesus under the Greek -Syrian paganism rule over Israel and the Jewish people would have been unknown

Hanukah
The celebration of the Hanukah ( Dedication) Festival of Lights in 2023 is a sobering event because it brings us closer to understanding the unity of recurring events that had happened to the Jews in the land of Israel in 168 BC under the invasion and defilement by Syrian's Antiochus Epiphanes IV and the October 7, 2023 infiltration of Israel by Hamas Islamic Terrorists with blatant attack and infiltration of Israel on that fateful day unprovoked. In each event, there was a calculated, deliberate, heinous plot to invade the land of Israel to inflict horrific, unfathomable, and colossal destruction on the Jewish women, men, boys, and girls and to defile sacred places of Worship the Jewish Temple.
Hamas Islamic terrorists
Hamas Islamic terrorists declared barbaric war on Israel, where they carried out colossal infiltration of southern Israel. There, in all the neighbouring kibbutz Communities, they conducted the most horrific, unfathomable act of defilement of Israeli women, girls, babies, men, and boys. One thousand two hundred women, men, boys and girls, babies, and the elderly were killed. Women and girls were raped, tortured, burned alive to death. Over 4300 people were injured, and over 240 Israelis were taken to Gaza as captives.
Syrian kingdom, Antiochus Epiphanes IV,
In 168 BC, the ruler of the Syrian kingdom, Antiochus Epiphanes IV, stepped up his campaign to quash Judaism so that all subjects in his vast empire — which included the Land of Israel — would share the same culture and worship the same false gods. They worship Creation as opposed to the Creator, who is Elohim, the OMNI presence.
He marched into Jerusalem, vandalized the Temple, erected an idol on the altar, and desecrated its holiness with the blood of swine. Decreeing that studying the Torah, observing the Sabbath, and circumcising Jewish boys were punishable by death, he sent Syrian overseers and soldiers to villages throughout Judea to enforce the edicts and force Jews to engage in idol worship.
When the Syrian soldiers reached Modin (about 12 miles northwest of the capital), they demanded that the local leader, Mattathias the Kohen (a member of the priestly class), be an example to his people by sacrificing a pig on a portable pagan altar. The elder refused and killed not only the Jew who stepped forward to do the Syrian's bidding but also the kings.
Antiochus's actions provoked a large-scale revolt. Mattathias (Mattityahu), a Jewish priest, and his five sons Jochanan, Simeon, Eleazar, Jonathan, and Judah led a rebellion against Antiochus. In each of these Horrific attacks against Israel, Israel is not without help. God is always with her, setting a standard against her arch-adversary. Like Judah Macabee, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has taken a resolute stand against Hamas Islamic terrorists in Gaza until Hamas is defeated as we pray for the people of Gaza to come to repentance and accept the God of Israel, the only True God in Yeshua. As we speak, Israel is winning that war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza after Hamas' Terrorist Massacre of Israelis on October 7.
In 168 BC, it started with Mattathias dealing a blow to a fellow Jew spying for the enemy who wanted to comply with Antiochus's order to sacrifice to Zeus and then a Greek official who was to enforce the government's behest (1 Mac. 2, 24–25. Judah became known as Yehuda HaMakabi ("Judah the Hammer"). By 166 BC, Mattathias had died, and Judah became leader. By 164 BC, the Jewish revolt against the Seleucid monarchy was successful. The Temple was liberated and rededicated. The festival of Hanukkah was instituted to celebrate this event. [51] Judah ordered the Temple to be cleansed, a new altar to be built in place of the polluted one, and new holy vessels to be made.
Therefore, this is our prayer that Israel will prevail against Hamas under the leadership of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
South Sudan- at the end of 2023. Food security remains a daunting challenge for ONMI

Testimonies as much as many people still rely on food imported from Uganda, majority of South Sudanese truly appreciate the vision of Operation nehemiah Missions to move the community to a measurable sustainable living with resources generated within South Sudan.
Well-done Bishop. Our land is fertile and I'm still wondering why we are importing food from Uganda. Last year I ate grains from your farm, so delicious. May the Lord continue to multiply the works of your hands. Pricilla
Surely Agriculture is the key thing , food insecurity need to be stopped so that school , staffs, families ,and communities have enough to eat. That was initial plans for students to participates in farm , so that they can also learn how to develop Agric Skills and have enough for in store for sell and eat balance diet in school Joseph Levi .
Truly that's a great idea let me hope it's gonna work out as planned so that we also benefit from our own struggles rather than always spending a lot of money buying from the market. That's real it's now our own responsibility to now meet the demands that suit our target because this time round we need to be more serious on whatever we are pushing for not each time talking much with no action which makes it impossible for us to account for what we have spent
Hallelujah God is so great thank you God. Thank you for your hard work Brother William for the love of God will continue to pray for you. Wow, Brother William. Heaven’s love on Earth. Thank you for sharing. Very inspiring!! Praying for you mornings!
