God created the Six-Day War Miracle.
God promised Abraham that he would be the father of a great
and prosperous nation with millions of people.
But Israel had its people living in
slavery in Egypt for generations, had its people wandering in wilderness for
years, had its people with Jewish identification decimated and dispersed by the
Roman Empire, and had its 6 million Jews killed in the Holocaust by the
Nazis during World War II.
But God had not forgotten His chosen people, as evidenced by His many modern miracles,
including the Six-Day War Miracle.
On June 5, 1967,
a war broke out between Israel and Egypt and other Arab countries in the Middle
East. The Egyptians had two times more soldiers, four times more aircrafts, and
five times more tanks than the Israelites. The objective of the war was annihilation
of the Jews—the “Second Holocaust.”
Given that there
was no involvement and no support from Great Britain and the United States,
while Egypt was backed up by the Soviet Union, the anticipated annihilation of
Israel was certain and imminent.
But a miracle
happened. The war lasted only six days. By the end of
the day on June 5, Israeli pilots had won full control of the skies over the
Middle East. Israel had destroyed 450 planes of Egypt while Israel lost only19
of its 100 planes.
Due
to many mistakes and false reports of victories reported by the Egyptians and
their allies, the war ended in lightning speed of victory for Israel within six
days.
The miracle of the “Six-Day War” continued
like the fig tree: Israel not only survived but also thrived, and eventually it
was recognized as an independent nation by the United Nation.
Living by faith: God is timeless. Humans must have patience and perseverance with faith, trust, and obedience in God. Human expectations only distance themselves from God.
