On the evening of Monday, August 12, 2024, which was also Tisha B’Av or the ninth of Av, intercessors joined Liberty Counsel and IFA to pray for Israel in light of the threats against the nation. Many historical atrocities have been committed against Israel on the ninth of Av. During the prayer call, intercessors prayed that God would deliver Israel in a miraculous way so that they would know that He did it and not their own strength. That night, a 5.4 magnitude earthquake hit Syria and Lebanon, thwarting a planned attack on Israel. This is a direct answer to prayer! Read more . . .
Excerpt from opinion by Duvi Honig in The Jerusalem Post. In our collective memory, Tisha B’Av has always been a solemn day, marked by the destruction of the First and Second Temples. This year, however, the day bore witness to what many of us view as a modern-day miracle—a testament to divine intervention that could not have come at a more crucial time.
Reports confirmed a 5.4-magnitude earthquake that struck Syria and Lebanon, profoundly impacting the region. This was not just any seismic event; it may have served as an unanticipated yet divine act that thwarted a grave threat against the Jewish nation. Hezbollah, an established proxy of Iran, had been preparing to launch an attack on Israel—a direct affront planned deliberately for Tisha B’Av. Many of the group’s underground tunnels, teeming with armaments, may have been reduced to rubble by an act of God to protect His children, which could effectively halt Hezbollah’s nefarious plan before it could materialize.
It is hard to perceive it as mere coincidence that the earth shook on the very day Hezbollah had intended to send Israel into mourning once more. With tunnels collapsing and their arsenals buried, what could have been a devastating assault turned into a day of bewildering relief and gratitude.
Throughout history, Jews have faced adversaries who sought to dismantle our spirit and our faith. This recent event is yet another example that, irrespective of the gathered forces against us, divine protection remains steadfast. Tisha B’Av, usually a day of sorrow and reflection, was transformed into a moment where we could see the hand of God in action, turning our potential despair into potential reassurance.

Oh that we should ever doubt that you are a mighty God, oh that we should ever doubt that you no longer orchestrate your will from Heaven, oh that we should every doubt you do not hear our prayers. Praise be to God, creator of the Universe. Mighty is his name.
Blessed be Yahweh, defender of His people. Praise Him who delivered Israel from this attack. Praise the Name above all names, Jesus!
Thanks be to Gid.

Nations will see your righteousness and all kings, your glory. You will be called by a new name that the Lord’s mouth will announce.
