As thankful as we are for the hostage release, let’s not forget what triggered the need for the release.

Before the flurry of activity associated with the release of hostages, the Israeli Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism released a trove of never-before-seen documents and evidence that reveal the well-planned and expertly engineered terror that led to the massacre of over 1200 Israelis and 250 hostages on October 7, 2023. If put into perspective, it would equal the loss of 30,000-40,000 American lives, and most of the Israeli lives were brutally maimed and tortured prior to death or while in captivity.

The atrocities are nothing short of pure satanic evil. No sane human would behave as those demonic figures did on October 7. Linked below is the website, October 7 Files: Organized Evil. Even a quick perusal will turn your stomach and begin to illustrate just how traumatizing the events of the day were. It was planned, it was intentional, and it was beyond human expression. Those monsters will stand before God one day, then will receive their just reward: eternity in hell.

Please pray for victims, their families, soldiers, and Israeli first responders who had to go through the trauma that day. Only God’s unimaginable mercy and lovingkindness enables survivors to carry on. His supply is not short, so let’s join in prayer that those in need receive an abundance.
