We should wonder if the Six Day War was not a miracle in our life time that showed the bare arm of the Lord in changing world history and protecting his chosen people. The war returned Jerusaleum to Israeli hands for the first time in nearly two thousand years,
The armed forces of Egypt, Syria and Jordan rattled their sabres, threatening not just to attack Israel, but to wipe it entirely away. The three countries with their armies virtually surrounded Israel, making their victory all the more seemingly assured.
But, Israel prepared a pre-emptive attack, striking before the Egyptian, Syrian and Jordanian war machinery could even get started. The Israelis outmaneuvered the massively more equipped Egyptians, Syrians and Jordanians.
Was ancient Old Testament scripture fulfilled? Wherein it says: "Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall in siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people; all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it." (Zechariah 12:2-3)
So, he prophecy is in the Old Testament, documented. And, then in our day, it was fulfilled. What the Old Testament said would happen, happened. It is hard to argue against facts. This should stand to each of us as a witness there is a God.
