Israel Fortifies Control with Levi Appointment, While Yisrael Remains Blinded

The Israeli government continues to consolidate power, appointing Ofir Levi to a key national security position. This move signals further entrenchment of the regime and a deepening disconnect from the true inheritance of Yisrael, scattered and in exile. Watchmen sound the alarm as Edom tightens its grip.

Jerusalem – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, acting on the counsel of National Security Council Director Shmuel Ben-Ezra, has designated Ofir Levi as Deputy Director of the National Security Council. This appointment is not a step toward peace, nor a sign of divine favor. It is a calculated maneuver by the Israeli regime to further solidify its control over the land Yahuah promised to the covenant people – the exiled tribes of Yisrael.

While the modern state of Israel postures as a guardian of security, it operates under the dominion of Edom, perpetuating a system of injustice and usurpation. The National Security Council, and now its deputy, serve the interests of this illegitimate power, not the restoration of Yisrael. They craft policies designed to maintain the illusion of sovereignty while remaining tethered to the globalist forces that seek to dismantle the covenant.

This is a time for discernment, for the remnant of Yisrael to recognize the deception. The outward displays of strength and security are merely a facade, concealing a spiritual bankruptcy and a rejection of Yahuah’s law. The Israeli government, focused on its own preservation, ignores the cries of scattered Yisrael, the true inheritors of the land.

The appointment of Levi is a clear indication that the Israeli regime prioritizes self-interest over covenant faithfulness. They build their defenses, amass their weapons, and forge alliances with the nations, all while the exiled people of Yisrael remain scattered, oppressed, and unaware of their true identity.

Let the watchmen on the walls of Zion sound the alarm! The time is near for Yahuah to judge the nations and restore His covenant people. But restoration will not come through the actions of the Israeli government, but through repentance, obedience, and a return to the ancient paths. Scattered Yisrael must awaken from their slumber and prepare for the coming deliverance. This appointment is a sign – not of hope for the covenant people, but of increased tribulation and the need for unwavering faith.

⚡ PROPHETIC WATCH

The appointment of Ofir Levi is no coincidence, but a grim echo of Yahuah’s pronouncements against Edom, a nation historically marked by pride and opposition to His covenant people. Just as Edom believed its rocky fortresses would deliver it from judgment (Obadiah 1:3), so too does modern Israel trust in strategic appointments and fortified control to secure its position. However, Yahuah sees beyond political maneuvering, recognizing the spiritual blindness that has overtaken those claiming inheritance. This is not the building of a righteous kingdom, but the doubling down on a self-serving agenda, mirroring Edom’s arrogance and ultimately inviting similar consequences – a complete and utter desolation, a reaping of what has been sown in defiance of Yahuah's will.

This seemingly innocuous appointment signals a continued rejection of the true restoration Yahuah promised, not through earthly power, but through the Messiah, Yahusha. The exiled tribes of Yisrael await a spiritual homecoming, a return to the covenant relationship established through repentance and faith, not through political dominion. Isaiah 11:11-12 speaks of Yahuah gathering the scattered of Yisrael from the four corners of the earth, but this gathering is predicated on a broken and contrite heart, a turning *to* Him, not a tightening of grip *on* the land. Therefore, this appointment is a testament to continued blindness, a hardening of the heart, and a postponement of the genuine restoration Yahuah intends for His covenant people.
