We sat down at the Sea of Galilee with an Israeli special forces commander just hours after he returned from the front lines in Gaza. What followed wasn't just a conversation - it was a collision of war, faith, and the kingdom of God. In this powerful and emotional episode, we talk about everything from blowing up terror tunnels and rescuing hostages to the unseen spiritual battle raging behind the headlines. Our guest, a Jewish believer and elite IDF soldier, shares how he's been sustained through nearly 600 days of combat, what the Bible says about Gaza, and why the real hope for peace isn't political - it's prophetic. You won't hear this anywhere else. Key Takeaways: Gaza holds ancient, prophetic significance - and the war there today is deeply spiritual. Ceasefires often backfire, giving terror groups time to rearm. Political deals and military action can't fix what only the return of the Messiah can. True peace comes when hearts are transformed - not just borders. Chapter Markers: 00:01 – Sea of Galilee intro with the IDF Sergeant Major 00:21 – On-the-ground details from Gaza tunnel operations 04:11 – What it really takes for a military mission to succeed 07:33 – The illusion of ceasefires and international pressure 12:56 – How a Jewish believer in the army sees God's hand in the chaos 17:49 – Pulling back the mask: the theo-political battle behind the war 24:17 – Why only the Kingdom of God can bring lasting peace 26:48 – A former radical Muslim's transformation and the future hope Stay connected as we continue to unpack the prophetic story unfolding in real-time.
