Happy New Year! I pray that 2017 will be your most blessed and prosperous yet.

God's mercies never fail. They are new every morning. So I believe we should expect God's greatest blessings to overtake us in this new year.

On this week's program, I am going to begin my annual two-part series that I call, "The Prophetic Year in Review," or PYIR. For those of you who are regular viewers of the program, you remember that at the beginning of each new year I look back on the previous one and highlight the developments and events that I believe hold particular prophetic significance.

For my 2016 PYIR, I have devoted Part 1 to Israel. This has been a difficult year for the nation of Israel, and, for that matter, Jews worldwide.

Not only has Israel faced its normal array of enemies, but as 2016 closed, it found itself stabbed in the back by its closest ally, the United States. On the eve of Hannukah, President Obama chose to "fundamentally transform" decades of U.S. policy and allow the world to gang up on our tiny ally at the United Nations. The UN Security Council, with America's tacit approval (some say instigation), pushed Israel into an untenable position that President-Elect Trump will not be able to undo.

To add insult to injury, Secretary of State John Kerry then displayed to the world a level of contempt for Israel that stunned many, including several of America's allies.

But, if you recall, I warned just a few weeks ago that I felt President Obama would make his true colors known and wreak as much damage to Israel as he could before leaving office. I'm sorry to say that I -- along with a few others -- was correct. I pray that God will be merciful to America despite the hatred for God's chosen people that our leaders have shown.

And continue to pray for Israel and our nation. There are still a couple of weeks left in which this Administration could further turn the knife and create crises that the incoming administration will be left to face.

And, folks, I believe the attitude of those leaving office is something rather unprecedented in modern American politics. Please continue to hold up our nation in prayer and intercession for God's protection and mercy. I firmly believe we are dealing with supernatural forces that are displaying themselves as we've never witnessed before. That's one more reason I believe that Christ's return for His true believers may be more imminent than we realize.
