Watchman on the Wall

Texas has a friend in the state of Israel
Texans for Israel has been created in order to unite and strengthen Texans locally, nationally, abroad (and those with like-mindedness), in the unique values that we share for God’s Land, God’s People, and God’s Purpose for Israel. Israel is in fire as of June 2014, and the president of Iran has threatened to completely clear Israel from the map. He is currently gathering the nuclear technology and other devices to make this threat a reality. Christians, and others with like-mindedness, across America have a deep love for Israel and God’s chosen people. The best way to show your love for the Israeli nation, and support them in these ways would be to become a Watchman on the Wall. It is a goal of Texans for Israel for all members to feel as if they fill the role of Watchman on the Wall, to keep up with information of what is going on, and to educate themselves about common issues. Texans for Israel is looking to help protect and support the lands of Judea, Samaria, and all of Israel. One way to begin to understand why this is the organization’s chosen cause is to understand the importance of these particular areas. Jerusalem, which is the foundation of Jewish existence, serves as a hope for the Jewish people. This city is the heart of Israel, as well as the heart of conflict. Jerusalem is surrounded to the north, east, and south by Judea and Samaria. Judea and Samaria have a role to protect and defend the city it surrounds. Today it is very clear, without Judea and Samaria Jerusalem will be lost. One key advantage to having control of Judea and Samaria is the use of higher ground. Judea and Samaria are located in a mountain range over central Israel. Whoever controls Judea and Samaria has control of the land and communities below them. For most supporters around the world, the most frustrating aspect of seeing the violence in Israel is feeling an inability to help others. Some simple ways you can help Israel are to get facts about what is really going on, pray for the safety and peace of the Land, buy Israeli products and services, speak out about Israel, strive to be a better person in your own life, and last but certainly not least, register and vote in your local and national elections. There are many important reasons to support Israel but some of the most important are very simple and easy to understand. One of these reasons is the historical and biblical evidence proving Jewish people are entitled and have ownership of the Israeli lands. Another reason to support Israel is because God said so. He spoke to Abraham in Genesis 13:14-17 about giving Abraham and his descendants the land forever. There is 9 common goals for most Watchman on the Walls’ efforts to succeed in creating. The 9 goals are:
