Just as Lebanon’s Christian sovereignty was rejected for daring to rule Islamic land outside of Sharia, so too Israel is rejected for daring to exist as a sovereign Jewish nation on territory once claimed by Islam. Danny Burmawi

From the death of Muhammad in 632 CE until the abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate in 1924,the *ummah * lived under a continuous political structure that asserted not merely a religious identity but legal authority, territorial governance, military expansion, and socio-political hierarchy. This unbroken lineage is the spine of Islamic history. The Islamic state was not an intermittent experiment; it was a continuous, institutionalised reality. Danny Burmawi

The result is a theological structure where Allah is distant, unknowable, terrifying, and abstract, while Muhammad is proximate, emotional, imitable, and ever-present. Devotion cenrres not on the divine, but on the man who claimed to reveal it. His will becomes law. His person becomes the lens of revelation. Danny Burmawi

Islam is a total system of laws and expectations so expansive and demanding that failure is inevitable. Guilt becomes constant. But Islam offers a way to offset that failure :pledge allegiance to the faith, stand with the ummah, and oppose its enemies. And nothing signals that allegiance more loudly than standing against Israel. Danny Burmawi

Spirit-led reasoning can be defined as allowing flowing pictures and words from the Holy Spirit to guide our reasoning process. We can ask for this and seek it out by properly posturing our hearts before the Holy Spirit (see John 7:37-39; Ps. 73—David reasoned in the sanctuary of God). Mark Virkler

Obviously, hearing God’s voice, believing it, and obeying it must rank at the top of anyone’s list who wants to possess their Promised Land. Mark Virkler

Along with a God-given ministry comes God-given revelation to wisely fulfill the ministry. Therefore, look for revelation in the areas in which God has given you accountability. Mark Virkler

Journaling allows you to write in faith believing the flow of thoughts and pictures is from the Lord, knowing that you will be able to test them later. Mark Virkler

Two-way journaling, or simply journaling, as I use the term, is basically recording your prayers and what you sense to be God’s answers. The Psalms are an example of this process, as well as the books of the prophets and Revelation. Clearly, this is a common biblical experience. Mark Virkler
