Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Lambs, Sheep, and Shepherds

.

14 Like a hunted gazelle,
    like sheep without a shepherd,
they will all return to their own people,
    they will flee to their native land.

Your Peace Passes Understanding!

Our Fear of You, Father is That of Reverence and Awe
Overwhelmed by Your Glory,
Overcome With Gratitude For Your Great Mercy and Love!
You Are Holy, Righteous and Just,
Yet Full of Mercy, Compassion, Forgiveness, and Love.
How Wonderful and Awesome You Are!

LORD, We Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Beseech You on Behalf of Our Captive Brethren,
Christians and Jews,
In Bondage in Hostile lands.

To do the Right Thing.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Yesterday, we discussed ruined cities of Nineveh, Pripyat, and Detroit becoming ruined and a haunt for wild animals. The Prophets also described these ruins as a place to graze sheep. Perhaps this is because, in the wake of destruction, there is a lot of NEW vegetation growing where there once was a city.

Tomorrow we will see Isaiah predicting the same fate for the city of Babylon. The Passages in Zephaniah and Isaiah are very similar, but describe two entirely different cities. The cities has something in common, though. Both were used by God to chastise Israel.

There is no question that these were pagan cities, who worshiped idols and were hostile to The One True God. For centuries, scholars have puzzled over why God would use countries that were even more wicked than His Own People to punish them.

We have seen such parallels even in our own century and historians still argue over who was worse...Stalin or Hitler, Batista or Castro, the Shah or the Ayatollah? Sometimes we can only sigh and side with whoever was our ally at the time, but it is a very old and familiar dilemma.

Which is worse, ignorant people who are wicked because they don't know any better, or people who have the Revelation of God and rebel against it?

Truly, an entire civilization can be like "Sheep Without a Shepherd" and stray in every direction. The straying sheep are the first ones to get picked off by the predator, who, has no compunction about "doing what comes naturally".

Jesus saw His own People in a similar state. The Roman Empire (who were idolaters) had conquered Israel, and in less than 40 years would be destroying the Temple, leaving "not one stone left upon another." But with death comes new life. Fresh grass pokes its way through the tumbled stones. Unless a seed falls to the earth and dies, it can't germinate and grow into a tree.

Don't give up!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Psalm 116

1 I love the Lord, because he has heard
my voice and my supplications.
2 Because he inclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The snares of death encompassed me;
the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me;
I suffered distress and anguish.
4 Then I called on the name of the Lord:
‘O Lord, I pray, save my life!’

5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;
our God is merciful.
6 The Lord protects the simple;
when I was brought low, he saved me.
7 Return, O my soul, to your rest,
for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For you have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling.
9 I walk before the Lord
in the land of the living.
10 I kept my faith, even when I said,
‘I am greatly afflicted’;
11 I said in my consternation,
‘Everyone is a liar.’

12 What shall I return to the Lord
for all his bounty to me?
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the Lord,
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord
is the death of his faithful ones.
16 O Lord, I am your servant;
I am your servant, the child of your serving-maid.
You have loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to you a thanksgiving sacrifice
and call on the name of the Lord.
18 I will pay my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people,
19 in the courts of the house of the Lord,
in your midst, O Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord!

We need a Holy Spirit led revival in America. Churches cannot be business as usual. True Bible believers need to immediately exit those that are not Scripturally correct . . . standing up for the cause of Christ.
