Ishmael: Hands against everyone





And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction. Ishmael: that is, God shall hear
12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. Genesis 16:11

Situation
Ishmael has risen and the world is terrified, but yet a person who is acquainted with the Book of Genesis should not be for there in the scripture lies the prophecy of the hands of this son of Abraham. In this short study, we will find out who Ismael and his descendants are and how they are fulfilling this ancient prophecy.

Who is Ishmael? Abraham's first son with the slave woman Hagar
Sarah: Abraham's wife-she asked Abraham to take her slave because they could not have a child. Later, she realized the woman-Hagar, no longer had respect for her. So, after having her own child; Sarah asked Abraham to put the woman out of their house.
The Lord hears, The Angel of the Lord:... shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction. While Hagar and Ishmael struggle in the wilderness, the Lord heard their affliction.
Famous descendant of Ishmael: Mohammed prophet of Islam

The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmael and will not bow down to any one. They are bold, fearing no man; untamed, intractable, living at large, and impatient of service and restraint. God blessed Ishmael by making him free and he will resist any nation trying to impose its will on him.

The rise of Islam play a major part in the characteristic of his descendants. Islam rose at a time of great apostasy in the Christian world in the middle ages and is once again awaken as the former so-called "Christian" nations are diving head first into apostasy and perversions. As we are now in the last days, the children of Ishmael will be untamed as never before. (for more info on Islam in Bible prophecy, read Rise of Islam blog)

I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip') [Quran 8:12]," . "[He] also said (So when you meet those who disbelieve, strike their necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens), [Quran 47:4].

This is Ishmael, and the time has come again, he has drawn his sword and his hands will be against everyone and everyone's hands against him.
For Jesus said in the last days there will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Luke 21:25

The idolatry of marriage: a recipe for disaster

 People are suffering, loneliness is rampant in the land. Many people in the world look to marriage as a savior, an institution that will rescue them from their loneliness. They think finally i will have someone I can call mine, someone who will love me with all their hearts until death do us apart 🤗. But the increasing divorce rates tell a different story. A story of marriage being difficult, a story of many married people being miserable , lonely , bitter and see divorce as a viable option to escape the misery they find themselves in. A story of many preferring to live together instead of getting married.  Marriage has become a scary thing in the land. Marriage for many has become synonymous with losing half your wealth and your children. But why has marriage become so destructive to many ? Why has something as beautiful as marriage become such a terror to many 🤔? It is because marriage has become an idol to many. Marriage has become a god to many in the church and in the world. Sa

The difficulties of love

 Love is a beautiful thing. Love makes life worth living. Love is best thing in the universe because God is love 😍. We all want love, we all want to be loved and many of us want someone to love. Love is very precious indeed. We sing about love, we write about it and we make movies about it. And yet love is the most difficult thing to find in this earth. It is easier to find diamonds and gold than to find true love. Easier maybe to find the lost city of Atlantis than to find genuine love. Many people have simply given up on love. They see the idea of loving and having someone to love them as fables for unwise and inexperienced children. Love is rare indeed. Why is it so hard to love or find love 🤔? The easiest answer is because we are imperfect. Being imperfect means we are broken, unable to perform the function we were made to do. Come with me on a journey of the difficulties of love. Imagine you meet someone, a man, a woman, the " love of your life." The woman is beautiful

What do you bring to the table ?

 Man and woman are both made in the image of God.  Man and woman are both valuable and equal in worth but are not the same.I repeat, man and woman are not the same. There is an attempt in our culture to make man and woman the same, it's nothing but a Satanic assault to destroy the beauty of God's creation . Man and woman are different for a reason. Each reveal different qualities of the Godhead. When a man and woman come together in the way of God, real beauty will be revealed. Man and woman offer different things in a relationship. What do you bring to the table 🤔?  Is the question many are asking when it comes to choosing a spouse . According to the Bible the man is to provide for the woman and the woman is to be a help meet to the man. A help meet is a perfect match for someone. The woman is to match her husband,  completing him, making him stronger, being strong where he is weak . The man is supposed to provide financially, security,  stability. The man is to provid
