Welcome friends to the line of fire broadcasts Michael Brown thanks for taking time to listen to watch

We are here on the front lines during our best to infuse you with faith and truth and courage to help you stand strong.

Right now, Israel is under assault, missiles pouring in from Iran, the nation basically

bunkering down, shutting down, bomb shelters, getting out of harm's way.

What will Israel's response be?

Is this a time when we should pray prayers,

imprecatory prayers, prayers of cursing, prayers of judgment on the enemies of Israel, on a nation

like Iran, which is the chief sponsor of terrorism worldwide and this radical Islamic fundamentalist?

Is that a good time is this a

righteous time to be doing it is it ever right to pray these Psalms well we'll

talk about that and then a little later in the broadcast I'll do my best to

give you further update on what is happening in Israel if you'd like to weigh in on

the subject of using the imprecatory Psalms, the Psalms of cursing one's enemies,

you can call 86634 Truth, 866-34 Truth.

I'm going to read Psalm 109 to you.

This is one of the best known, if not the best known imprecatory psalms.

Some Psalms have just a verse or two that is speaking curses on one's enemies or praying for vengeance against one's enemies.
