>> I wonder what he is calling Israel today..house of Israel or house of Jacob. <<

that depends on whom you're referring to. Christ's Church the true Israel, or Satan's counterfeit kingdom, Israel after the flesh. every good name reserved for Christ and his bride, or if you prefer, Christ and his children, the adversary tries to usurp for himself and his beast kingdom. Israel is one such name.

the Lord is our shield. Satan wants to be a shield for his children. there is a true Shield just as there is a true Israel and a true Tabernacle. if there is a true Shield, there must needs be a false one as well.

But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. --Psalms 3:3

For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. --Psalms 5:12

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. --Psalms 28:7

Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield. --Psalms 33:20

Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield. --Psalms 59:11

For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. --Psalms 84:11

O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: he is their help and their shield. O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield. Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield. --Psalms 115:9-11
