The Trump Test - Jeremy Gimpel: The Land of Israel Fellowship

president Donald Trump has been elected by the American people to be the leader of the Free World I don't know anyone in Israel that isn't happy hasn't celebrated made a but the truth is everything that happens to Israel happens for Israel and this is just another test what do I mean by that October 7th however painful it might be um has turned us into the people that God created us to be we weren't able to be the people we were created to be before October 7th we were fighting there was the judicial reform there were battles in the streets of Tel Aviv about Yom Kipper prayers all of a sudden October 7th happened we became united we became powerful we became more independent we understood that we had a mission as a people in our land and it molded us much closer into becoming the people that Hashem chose us to be and right now there is a new test are we still going to remain independent are we going to make all of our arms in America because now our friend president Donald Trump is the president of America are we going to be who we were created to be or not are the choosing America are you going to now be comfortable and stay in America for another four years or are you already going to make your plans to move to Israel an comes exactly at the right time when we learn about about the N note the tests of Abraham everyone says Abraham had 10 tests but there is one person that I know of that says the 10th test wasn't just the biding of Isaac that n was the ninth test first we need to understand though what is a nisson nisson comes from the Hebrew word n which means to raise up a flag or a banner and so when you pass a test what you've done is you've lifted up a banner and said here I am this is who I am now because until you are pushed to the limits and Beyond you don't know how strong you are you don't know how faithful you are when you pass a test you've raised a banner and said yes this is who I am and this is where I stand and then the other word is of course a miracle nce literally means Miracle because who gave you the strength to pass that test to begin with and so when we have Aion we have a test we need to realize that we're about to raise a banner and lift ourselves up with the help of Hashem and so now what was Abraham's test he already did the AA but there is a marvelous Rashi on this week's Torah portion that reads like this Sarah's death is written immediately following The Binding of Isaac because through her hearing about The Binding that her son had been designated to be Slaughter Ed and was almost indeed sacrificed but not her soul departed from her and she died so imagine now the test of Abraham he had passed all of the tests he had moved to the land of Israel he had fought Kings he had lived through God knows what finally he sacrificed his only son only to then say Abraham stop you've passed the test and then what happens his beloved wife hears about The Binding of Isaac and her Soul leaves the world and now he has to live with this final test of what on Earth is God doing to him and I think that that is the most powerful message for all of us to take with us today life is a test everything that happens to us happens for us it's only for our good but no matter who's the president and who's not the president the test Remains the Same will we live out our destiny will we become the people that God chose us to be will you become the person that Hashem created you to be everything that happens is a is and that's why Abraham is the father of many nations because his spiritual life wasn't easy it doesn't mean that oh if you follow God you'll be blessed materially you'll be best in your family no you may have many many challenges but Abraham is Paving a path for us to realize that whatever the challenge the challenge is a test and it's time for us to raise the banner theetu raise the banner to in gather the Exiles because it's time for us to be in gathered to Israel in gathered to ourselves and be the people that Hashem created us to be hey this is Jeremy gimpel if you enjoyed that content then you will enjoy all the content on the landof Israel Network at www.the landof israel.com and if you want to take get up a level you can join our Global community of people that learn together that work together that are all a part of a global movement of over 1,000 families all over the world and you can join the land of Israel Fellowship check it out on the landof israel.com [Music]
