Iron Dome Operator: God Moved Missile We Couldn't Hit


Iron Dome Operator: God Moved Missile We Couldn't Hit

Sunday, August 03, 2014 |  Israel Today Staff
Israel’s Iron Dome anti-missile system has been wildly successful during the current Gaza war, but on occasion it can and does miss incoming terrorist rockets.
One would think that the 10 percent or so of Hamas rockets predicted by Iron Dome’s radars to hit populated areas that are not intercepted would still cause significant Israeli casualties. But somehow, they don’t.
An earlier, unconfirmed report floating around the Internet had a Gaza resident attributing the lack of Hamas accuracy to Israel’s God moving the rockets off-course to protect His people.
“We do aim [our rockets], but their God changes their path in mid-air,” a Hamas commander was said to have told someone who wondered why Gaza-based militants can’t seem to hit their targets.
Whether or not that report is accurate, an Iron Dome operator whose battery failed three times to down an incoming missile headed toward Tel Aviv last week said the overall assessment is.
In remarks relayed to an Israeli news site (Hebrew), the Iron Dome battery commander recalled:
"A missile was fired from Gaza. Iron Dome precisely calculated [its trajectory]. We know where these missiles are going to land down to a radius of 200 meters. This particular missile was going to hit either the Azrieli Towers, the Kirya (Israel’s equivalent of the Pentagon) or [a central Tel Aviv railway station]. Hundreds could have died.
"We fired the first [interceptor]. It missed. Second [interceptor]. It missed. This is very rare. I was in shock. At this point we had just four seconds until the missile lands. We had already notified emergency services to converge on the target location and had warned of a mass-casualty incident.
"Suddenly, Iron Dome (which calculates wind speeds, among other things) shows a major wind coming from the east, a strong wind that…sends the missile into the sea. We were all stunned. I stood up and shouted, ‘There is a God!’
“I witnessed this miracle with my own eyes. It was not told or reported to me. I saw the hand of God send that missile into the sea.”
Also last week, Col. Ofer Winter, commander of the Givati Infantry Brigade, described a mysterious fog that favorably covered he and his troops as they advanced on an enemy position in morning light, after their nighttime raid was postponed.
Col. Winter labeled the covering as “clouds of glory.”
Earlier in the Gaza war, Col. Winter sparked heated national debate when he encouraged his troops to lead the charge against an enemy that “curses, defames and abuses the God of Israel.” Col. Winter concluded his letter by praying that the “Lord your God go with you, to fight for you against your enemies and to save you.”

    1. Since we are disciples of Jesus and continue in His Word, we want to be careful and make sure we have the proper scriptural doctrine in all matters. One of those, is how God views Israel and Judah that are not believers in Jesus Christ.

      For sure we know God loves all people and that every tribe, nation and tongue will have people that believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. Rev. 5:9

      Romans 11 http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=Rom&c=11&t=KJV
      May I suggest re-reading this chapter?

      It does show that there is a remnant of believers in Israel. It also speaks of election by grace and not works. Note verses 17-20, 23.
      It speaks of their unbelief, yet if they remain not in unbelief, God is able to graft them back in the 'olive tree'.

      Secondly, let's note what Jesus said about the Jews.
      Mat 23:37
      O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
      Mat 23:38
      Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
      Mat 23:39
      For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord

      B. Zechariah 12:10 confirms at the end, when Jesus returns as lightning visible from East to West,
      Zec 12:10
      And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

      C. At that moment, Jerusalem is surrounded by the world's armies. This is when a remnant will have faith and call upon the name of Jesus and they shall be saved and delivered by Him.

      Luk 21:20
      And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
      Luk 21:21
      Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
      Luk 21:22
      For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

      Third, read Isaiah 66.
      God is not looking for a temple other than the 'man that is broken, contrite and trembles at His Word'. I believe that is Jesus. All those that are in Him are the "temple" of God dwelt by the Spirit, made without hands.
      That is the only dwelling place of God.
      Note that Isaiah 66 speaks of sacrifices and offerings that are abominable and leave the state "DESOLATE".

      Again, we are making sure we view all things from a scripture perspective and that being the Lord's perspective, and not man's or religions, or other distortions that have come as tradition.

      We want to bless all people and all nations and promote the gospel of Jesus.

      We desire to see natural Israel repent and have faith in Jesus to enter the body of Christ. But, outside of this, the flesh profits nothing. There are many texts that prove this.

      We have to be careful that the Ezekiel 8 described Pharisaical religion of the Kabalah Jews, that also created Freemasonry, Mormonism perhaps even Catholicism, we have to make sure that they are not sending propaganda to sway simple minds.

      Rom 16:18
      For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

      I do believe that there is a remnant of natural Jews and Israelites that are believers by God's sovereignty and election of grace. And, I do believe that there will be some that repent at the 2nd Coming of Jesus and behold His wounds which they had done. Praise the Lord.

      Meantime, they of natural Israel and Judah that despise Jesus are in for turmoil, tribulation and trouble as the Word of God says until they turn to the Lord who is the Prince of Peace.
