I know that this is not all that we would want to see right now but 33 are coming out of captivity and Netanyahu knows more than we do about this. We will see how God evens the playing field soon. All things are possible with God. He is in control and we will see something better than the phase 2 and 3 if we will pray and believe that God has control. Do not just rely on what you see and hear. There is a spiritual war happening at present and all power is ours according to scripture if we believe. Watch what God does! Look what He has already done!
Amen Sue.... I pray the Bibas boys and their mother are first off the bus! This has been an atrocity and like you said the players Bibi and Trump know more behind the scenes! Let's keep praying fervently
Amen! Thank u for the encouragement, Sue! Stages 3 and 3 look precarious and iffy. Although the exchange of 1 hostage for 50 - 60 dangerous terrorists sounds unreasonable beyond tolerance to me, there is great value in that one life. Israel places life at the top of their priority list, I can’t argue with that.
May God’s hand of protection and blessings be upon Israel in this negotiation with Hamas, their enemy.🍒
Israel always gets the short end of the stick. It's not right that 2000 terrorists would be released in exchange for 33 prisoners of Israel. When Trump said that all hell would break loose if they are not released before he takes office, we know that is the only reason they have agreed at all. I am just thinking though that Trump isn't stupid and just maybe, he has another plan in place to counter those terrorists being released. We will see. I pray that every one of those hostages are released but I fear that many are already dead. Hamas is playing them for time. Whether people like Trump or not, he is certainly a man who means what he says. I believe that our foreign adversaries know this as well. I am praying for the best outcome to this situation. God has control and knows all. We can only guess at what may take place, but God Almighty already knows.
Yes Rhonda, but we also have to look at the families perspectives. Their grief over this whole situation enduring from the beginning of the war has to be wearing on them
I don't know Jimmy about this deal . It makes me ill. This deal sounds one sided. Israel may be getting the short end of the stick.
Maybe there are more provisions that help end Hamass. Joining forces with Biden is troublesome.
A two state solution cannot work. Israel has to be the reining authority. They should not leave anyone behind. Giving Biden something to crow about is
Shameful when he's the one who has been funding and protecting Iran. Are we cursing Israel with this deal. Love Trump but this is one deal that makes me wonder who is running the middle east show. I am praying for Gods will. How can one have a peace deal with the devil. These people hate Israel and the US and want all Jews dead. Peace is not in their vocabulary. Lying is part of their
You’re right, David. I think we are all peeved by it. I want to believe there’s something better we don’t know behind the scenes, but it’s a really hard pill to swallow.
That's what I keep praying and hoping.... so much more behind the scenes we don't know or understand yet. Jan 20th is almost here! It's been very stressful watching all of this unfold the past 24 hours. Appreciate Pastor Jimmy keeping us informed
God's got this Pastor Jimmy. Thousands of terrorists traded for one Israeli life is a win. God will not allow the terrorists that are released to prosper.
I can't believe that the US government... Including President Trump, how much pressure they have put on PM Netanyahu. How much pressure can one man take?
However, it does allow Israel time to regroup, rearm, and get ready to bomb the crap out of Hamas again once they stop following the ceasefire agreement.
I just don't understand. But its not up to us. God knows the beginning from the end and He is in charge.
Scott, Netanyahu is God’s man for this time. That can be the only answer for his strength and stamina. He has endured so much guff from the enemy, including the U.S. May God continue to bless and strengthen him throughout this time that he is so desperately needed❣️🍒
Does it seem strange to anyone else what is being reported? So, we're told there is one, or two, or multiple areas where these hostages have been kept for months now by some very bad guys. Gaza isn't that large an area and from all the videos and news being reported, one can conclude that every building, every underground tunnel, and every inch of Gaza has been turned upside down for the past 15 month. So, Hamas has been weakened significantly, the IDF is everywhere ....... Where are the hostages being hidden and how have they been sustained for so long if the IDF is fully aware of anyone entering or leaving the Gaza?
Maybe each released terrorist will have a tracker put on their bodies.... released but not lost. I think there is so much more happening behind the scenes and we will know soon. Stand by Israel!!
It drives me crazy that people are spinning this as a Trump victory. Hamas didn't take this deal because they're scared of Trump. Hamas is THRILLED to get 1000 of their terrorist brethren back in exchange for just 33 people. It's Bibi who Trump forced to take this horrible deal. This is a betrayal of Israel. Trump was willing to sacrifice the lives of the people these terrorists will eventually kill so that he could pretend he resolved this issue. It's a bad joke.
And this is nothing like what happened with Reagan. The Iranian hostages were released based on fear of Reagan and what he would do. Trump talked a big game, acting like he would make Hamas do the same...and then he weakly gave Hamas what they wanted to have a brief PR victory.
I really hope he at LEAST gave Israel the green light to bomb Iran's nuclear sites.
Hi Rick, There's so much happening behind the scenes. There's another view too .... Biden applied unprecedented pressure on Netanyahu to take this deal. He threatened him that if he doesn’t, the current administration would immediately withhold all weapons and money including Iron Dome. Netanyahu agreed to the deal after speaking to Trump and agreeing that when, not if, but when Hamas violates the terms, Israel does what it needs to do with zero restrictions and with total US support. We get our initial group of hostages back, Hamas violates the agreement, Israel goes in with a level of force Biden did not allow, and we finish the job, obliterate Hamas and retrieve the rest of the hostages..... Oh, and we track the prisoners we release and eliminate them one by one. Hillel Fuld
I hear you. But in exchange for a THOUSAND terrorists? There is no question that far more than 33 people will suffer and die at the hands of those monsters. The "master deal maker" couldn't exchange - oh, I don't know - 33 terrorists for 33 hostages? If he is really such a great deal maker, he could have traded 10 terrorists for 33 hostages. Or, like Reagan essentially did, he could have said "Release all the hostages or I will kill every one of you."
If Trump knows that Hamas will break the deal and THEN Israel can do what it wants to them and rescue the hostages, why not just skip to that part now? It's not like the world is going to cheer Israel on because the waited. 🤷♂️ This was about one thing and one thing only: a headline saying "Trump Brokers Peace Deal Already." The "peace deal" is just a requirement that Israel sow seeds that will bloom into a lot of dead Jews in the future. For a headline...

What an absolutely horrible deal. If I were a hostage, I'd rather lose my life than let another animal free to stalk my people again.

This is horrible!!!
Yes. Terrible deal. Maybe they thought it was the only option to get the hostages free. But that’s a very high cost.
I agree!!!
It’s a terrible deal for Israel however those first 33 hostages will be a start and again maybe there is more going on behind the scenes than we know.
Remember, God is in control.
Amen Andrew and these are HIS people and His land... He won't abandon the Jews ever!
Amen Andrew
God's got this Pastor Jimmy. Thousands of terrorists traded for one Israeli life is a win. God will not allow the terrorists that are released to prosper.
Beautiful said
Amen Christine
Right, Christine❣️🍒
Thank you very much for the update, for helping us understand the real situation to pray accordingly!
This is an excellent summery Jimmy! Thankyou!! 🆕

Lord willing, they give back the prisoners. It is not a good thing to release 2000 terrorists, though. Praying!!!!
Maybe each released terrorist will have a tracker put on their bodies.... released but not lost. I think there is so much more happening behind the scenes and we will know soon. Stand by Israel!!
Good old fashioned beepers for terrorists would be better
YES!!!!
Yes, yes Kari! Thank u for always being so encouraging to help us look on the best side of a situation❣️🍒
