On 28th Iyyar, 5764, 19th May 2004, The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement marched from Ammunition Hill in Northern Jerusalem to the heart of the Jewish people and all the world, the Temple Mount, the hill of the G–d of Israel, the location of the First, Second and Third Temples, the most holy place in the world.Jerusalem Day commemorates the liberation of the Temple Mount and Biblical Jerusalem, the city of David, in 1967. In the Torah, G–d gave very holy and exciting holy days and festivals to the Jewish people. These are connected to the redemption of Israel from Egypt and their regathering to the holy land of Israel which G–d gave to and promised them in an eternal covenant. They are also deeply connected to the land of Israel itself, to its agriculture and the seasons of the year. As with the covenant with Israel, these holy days express and commemorate the deep link that can never be broken between the G–d of Israel, the people of Israel and the land of Israel. Jerusalem Day is one of the most holy, important, exciting and godly holidays. The liberation of the Temple Mount, the hill of G–d, and the eternal capital of the G–d and people of Israel, Jerusalem, is one of the most important events in the history of Israel and the relationship between the G–d of Israel and His people. From the first moment that G–d sent Abraham and his seed to the land of Israel, He sent them to Jerusalem and to Mt. Moriah in its midst. From the moment that G–d created the Universe, He created first the Temple Mount and Jerusalem and made them to be His holy mountain, His holy city and the eternal holy capital of Himself and His people. Jerusalem became so holy because the holy hill of G–d is in its midst. For the more than 4000 years after Abraham was sent to this city and to Mt. Moriah with his son, Isaac, this place became the most important place in the life of the people of Israel. For thousands of years the people of Israel placed this city and the land which G–d gave them at the centre of their lives. The Jewish people always knew that a Jewish Israeli nation cannot exist without Jerusalem and the Temple Mount. The reason for this is so clear. The beloved G–d of Israel, the Creator of this nation, dwells at the centre of this city on the Temple Mount. Without Him the nation of Israel cannot exist for even one moment. At least three times a year at the festivals that G–d commanded, the Jewish people came on pilgrimage from all the corners of the promised land to meet their Beloved G–d, to see Him and to be seen by Him as He promised. These days were the most exciting days in the year. They met their Father and the husband of the people of Israel as He called Himself. Before the destruction of the Temple and afterwards until today and forever, when the Jews pray, their prayers, hearts and eyes were directed and lifted to one place - the Temple Mount at the centre of Jerusalem. Even their dead bodies were laid in their graves facing Jerusalem. When they built the Temple to the honor of G–d , they glorified it and made it the most beautiful building in the world, both physically and spiritually. The spirit of G–d dwelt their and covered the whole mountain and even all of Jerusalem. There is no example of such love, faithfulness and deep desire of a nation to a city and capital like the love, faithfulness and desire of the Israeli nation to Jerusalem. This is for one reason only, that their Beloved Father dwells there. Tens of millions of Jews gave their lives for Jerusalem and the Temple Mount to protect them from enemies which attacked Jerusalem and Israel in Biblical times and even after the destruction. Jerusalem, which the Jewish people took with them into the exile after the destruction of the city and the Israeli kingdom by the Roman in 70CE, and after it was occupied by the Arabs in 638CE, was their great hope prayer and symbolized their desire to be regathered to the land and to continue to worship their Beloved G–d from the land that He gave them. Jerusalem symbolized all their hopes when they were taken to their deaths by anti-godly and cruel nations in the Inquisition, the pogroms and in the Holocaust. All of them, including the 6 million murdered, burned and gassed in the Holocaust which included 1½ million children and babies, were murdered and Jerusalem was on their lips together with the Shma - Hear o Israel, the Lord our G–d, the Lord is One. In 1967, 1900 years after the revolt of the Israeli nation against the Roman occupation of the land of Israel, the G–d of Israel led His Israeli armed forces to liberate His holy hill, the Temple Mount, and His holy capital from a long foreign and Arab occupation and control of the heart, soul and  eternal focus of Himself and His people. In a miraculous war, after the Arab countries attacked Israel with the intention of destroying it and its people, G–d defeated them together with His brave Israeli soldiers who were again ready to sacrifice their lives for their return to their eternal capital and the hill of their Beloved G–d. In this war G–d appeared exactly as He had appeared in all the other wars since 1948 and exactly as He promised - "And it shall come to pass on that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. ... Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle." (Zecariah12:9, 14:3)Hundreds of brave Israel soldiers fell in the heavy battles on their way to liberate the Temple Mount and Jerusalem and to again make them the house of the G–d of Israel and the eternal capital of the G–d and people of Israel. It was G–d Who in a miraculous way as with Pharaoh in Egypt hardened the heart of the Arabs and caused them to attack Israel all over the land and in Jerusalem. It was G–d’s end-time timing to fulfill His end-time prophecies and to start a new godly age in the life of Israel and all the world, to rebuild His house on the Temple Mount in the midst of Jerusalem after almost 2000 years of destruction and desecration by foreigners. I had the privilege of being together with the forces on this great day after G–d had saved my life for this purpose in a very heavy battle before the Six-Day War. I will never forget this moment which opened a new stage in my life when I stood on the Temple Mount in front of the location of the Holy of Holies on which the Arab foreigners had built the Dome of the Rock and for such a long time had made it a political Islamic centre of pagan worship. We stood there with an excitement that cannot be expressed. We felt as if we were in heaven together with the G–d of Israel. We felt His presence so strongly and deeply on this most holy place in the world. With tears in our eyes and with the holy book, the Torah of G–d, in one hand and in the other hand a gun, and the Shma on our lips, we said to G–d that We promised Him and swore as our forefathers had done 25860 years previously - "If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy." (Psalm137:5,6) We never forgot Jerusalem. We never forgot our G–d and the city and hill where He dwells. The great day for which we had prayed, hoped for, desired and fought for had, thanks to His miracles, become a reality. When the Israelis and every Jew all over the world heard the commander of the liberating forces state - "the Temple Mount is again in our hands", life stopped and they wept in the houses, streets and on the battlefield. This was the greatest day in the life of Israel - a great dream and hope had become a reality and a new age opened in the life of Israel and all the world. When I stood in this exciting place at this exciting moment I new that a new stage had commenced in my life as in the life of the people of Israel and for this purpose - the rebuilding of the house of G–d. G–d had created me in my mother’s womb and dedicated and anointed me on the battlefield and saved me for this purpose. This was the feeling of all of us but unfortunately this great moment, the greatest in the long history of Israel, was missed in one moment of weakness of the then Defense Minister of Israel, Moshe Dayan, who gave the Temple Mount back to the Arab enemies of the G–d and people of Israel to continue their foreign pagan worship with their face toward Mecca and their backs to the holy hill of the G–d and people of Israel. He did this because of fear of the reaction of more than a billion Moslems if he were to remove the mosque and rebuild the Temple as G–d expected of him and Israel to do. He did not trust the prophetic promises of the G–d of Israel to defeat every enemy that came to attack them or to stop the redemption process that He had led since 1948 and especially in the Six Day War of 1967 of which the climax was the desire of the G–d of Israel to see His holy Temple being rebuilt by His people Israel. Despite the fact that immediately after the war Israel renewed its sovereignty over the Temple Mount and Jerusalem, Moshe Dayan allowed the Moslems to continue their pagan worship on the Temple Mount. The day after the war, the G–d of Israel led me to found The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement, His holy vessel to fulfill His end-time plans with Israel and all the world and especially the rebuilding of the Temple which will open the climax of all the end-time events and the coming of Mashiach ben David. We started the godly campaign and struggle to bring about this godly cause, not as a vision for the far future but, as a reality in our lifetime and to establish the end-time kingdom of G–d in Israel and all over the world. We are now 37 years beyond this great day and after a long struggle to rebuild the house of G–d on the Temple Mount on the same location as that of the First and Second Temples, we know that G–d led and is leading us in al of our activities to a great progress in this major historic campaign. We know that time is short and that G–d will no longer wait. He is acting intensively in these exciting and critical days in Israel to complete all his end-time plans with Israel and we know that soon the Temple Mount will be purified, the pagan Moslem foreigners removed and the great day of the rebuilding of the Temple that we have dreamed of, expected acted and sacrificed for for almost 2000 years and again in our time will come to pass in the near future in our lifetime. 
The march of The Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement on Jerusalem Day this year was another important stage in the campaign for this prophetic cause. The march started at 10:00AM on Ammunition Hill where the main battle for the liberation of the Temple Mount and Jerusalem took place and where so many Israeli soldiers gave their lives. We started our march in this place with thanks to the G–d of Israel and His soldiers who gave their lives in an heroic battle for Him, his holy mountain and city."A Song of Ascents. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, we were like men who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then they said among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them. The Lord has done great things for us; we are glad. Bring back our captivity, O Lord, like the streams in the Negev. Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who goes forth weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come back with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him." (Psalm126) Our prayers were also for the soldiers and Israelis who fell and were murdered by the Arab Islamic terror against Israel over the past year. We prayed and remembered them saying that we shall never forget their greatest sacrifice that someone can make for the G–d and people of Israel and for the redemption of the people and land of Israel and all the world. From Ammunition we marched past the monuments commemorating the soldiers who fell on their way to the Temple Mount and Jerusalem. At midday we arrived at the old Biblical city of Jerusalem at Jaffa Gate. On the Jaffa Gate plaza we demonstrated and called on the Israeli Government to remove the Islamic enemies of Israel and all the world from the holy hill of G–d , to purify it and to build the house of G–d as he expects of Israel to do. We also demonstrated against all the anti-godly and sinful plans which come from the nations to again divide the land of Israel which G–d will never allow and He will judge all of them who pressure Israel and its government to dived the land and to establish a foreign "Palestinian’ Islamic land which will desecrate and continue the terror against the G–d and people of Israel. We warned all those nations that they will be judged by G–d because of the revolt of the leaders against G–d and the decision to dived the land of Israel against as G–d warned through His prophets - "I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will enter into judgment with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and have divided my land." (Joel4:2) It was such an exciting moment when in the gates of Jerusalem was heard through our prayers: the prayer of King David - "A Song of Ascents of David. I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. Our feet shall stand inside your gates, O Jerusalem. Jerusalem is built as a city which is bound firmly together; There the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. For thrones of judgment were set there, the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; those who love you shall prosper. Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. For my brothers and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within you. Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good." (Psalm122) 
Then we shall continued to march through the streets of the old City to the climax of the march, the Temple Mount. There we swore faithfulness to the G–d of Israel, His holy mountain, Jerusalem and to the complete land of Israel which will never again be divided. We prayed for the soon rebuilding of the Temple and the coming of Mashiach ben David. We commit ourselves again before G–d to serve Him with all dedication and devotion for the soon
fulfillment of this prophetic end-time cause which will be the key to a new godly prophetic end-time in Israel and all the world according to His prophetic Word and the vision of the prophets of Israel.On the Temple Mount the prayer of the beloved king of the G–d and people of Israel, King David, was again heard through our prayers - "Of David. I will praise you with my whole heart; before princes I will sing praise to you. I will worship toward your holy temple, and praise your name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have magnified your word above all your name. In the day when I cried you answered me, and strengthened me with strength in my soul. All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord, when they hear the words of your mouth. And they shall sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord. Though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly; but the arrogant he knows from far away. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me; you shall stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand shall save me. May the Lord fulfill his purpose for me! Your loving kindness, O Lord, endures for ever; do not forsake the works of your own hands." (Psalm 138) This was an exciting day in the history of the campaign of the Faithful Movement for the building for the house of G–d. Our godly activities will continue intensively in the near future. The great day of the rebuilding is soon to come. In G–d we trust.
