I lost weight instead cz of constant fastings.
Not sure if that is the promised blessing.
But I stopped the Israel keshas after one episode left me traumatised.
By 3am which to me is the most trying moment,I was worn out,so I stepped outside to warm myself next to a bonfire the watchman had made.It was very chilly.
I started dozing unaware that my hair was touching the flames! It was a funny smell that woke me up only to see my hair smoking! I quickly put it off, covered my head and went back inside to quickly repent for sneaking out when people were praying for Israel!
I had to trim my hair after that.
Only God knows about the incident and now wazua.
@essyk, Pole sana for your loss [even though i think by now your hair has grown back].
All the same, i think i understand you better now.
About Israel and its blessings, i think there is a section in the Bible [ don't ask me which book coz i don't rem and i'm not a preacher], it's a parable sort of and a farm or something.
It talks of God having sent messengers to the farm[Israel], they[Israelis] killed them. He sent them prophets,they killed them, He then sent His only son, they killed Him.
It's then asked in the parable,to the masses, 'What would you do as the landlord?" And the crowd responded, "I would give the farm to someone else".The promise to Abraham i think stands though.Israel is still blessed.
Israel is no longer the chosen state. There has been several since then,USA was the new Israel from late 19th century until after the end of the cold war. They lost that after they became satanic.
