Even before Israel began taking the radical steps now in full effect, three passages were independently impressed upon various team members: Psalm 91, Isaiah 41:10 and 2 Chronicles 20.\u00a0<br \/><br \/>Psalm 91 reminded us of our position in the Lord. We meditated on how we are in the shelter of\u00a0<strong>The Most High.\u00a0<\/strong>He offers\u00a0<em>Himself<\/em>\u00a0as our refuge and fortress. His protection is not only a hiding place, but a place of intimacy where He draws us close under His sheltering wings. This reminds me of my experience here as a small child living through the 6 Day War, hiding in the bomb shelter away from the \u201carrow that flies by day\u201d.\u00a0 While the air raid sirens wailed I\u00a0found comfort in my parents\u2019 arms, a place of peace away from the \u201cterror of the night\u201d.<br \/><br \/>\u201cDo not fear for\u00a0<strong>I AM\u00a0<\/strong>with you\u201d.\u00a0Isaiah 41:10 puts the focus fully on\u00a0<em>who<\/em>\u00a0it is that is with us. The Creator and Sustainer of the entire universe is present and our shelter. The verse goes on to declare the promise that the One who is with us will strengthen, help, and support us.<br \/><br \/>Today, as Israel has gone into lockdown\u2014 closing its borders, shutting all non-essential operations and restricting citizens to their homes, our school is facing some big challenges. The students and staff alike are restricted to their residences. This means that now classes are conducted online, extra safety measures are being implemented, and emergency provisions put in place.<br \/><br \/>We are all dedicated to maintaining a posture of faith and worship as we respond to these difficulties. In 2 Chronicles 20 when King Jehoshaphat and the people heard the promise of the Lord, they responded with worship and praise even in the face of imminent battle against overwhelming odds.<br \/><br \/>Wherever you may be, our prayer is that the Lord will shelter you under His wings. Thank you for standing with us in prayer for all the students and staff of Whole Word Institute \u2013 Whole Word Institute.<br \/><br \/><em>Shalom Aleichem<\/em>\u00a0(Peace be with you),<br \/>David<br \/><br \/>David Swarr PhD\u00a0<br \/><br \/>President\/CEO<br \/><strong>Institute for Biblical Languages &amp; Translation<\/strong><br \/><strong>A program of\u00a0Whole Word Institute<\/strong><br \/><strong><em>The Whole Word for the Whole World<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"et_pb_button\" href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/4220foundation\">Vimeo Page<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"et_pb_button\" href=\"https:\/\/iblt.ac\/catalog2019-20\/\">View Our New Whole Word Institute Catalogue<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"et_pb_button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/4220foundation\/?eid=ARAcKQW-k-dW0c9PaNit8fq1CBHOBDikL3wCSChZsdORr3LX66esNPO1QAQOCl3gI87IUEoxPLObu-XN\">JOIN OUR FACEBOOK PAGE\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"et_pb_button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/4220foundation\/\">FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear friends of the Whole Word Institute-Institute for Biblical Languages &amp; Translation, During the life-changing events of the past weeks our team has taken time to wait upon the Lord and hear what He is saying to us.
