🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(8/16/25)[Prayer]





Water, Rivers, and Streams in the Bible
Ezekiel 47:1-12

The River From the Temple

47 The man brought me back to the entrance to the temple, and I saw water coming out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar. 2 He then brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and the water was trickling from the south side.

3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits[a] and then led me through water that was ankle-deep. 4 He measured off another thousand cubits and led me through water that was knee-deep. He measured off another thousand and led me through water that was up to the waist. 5 He measured off another thousand, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—a river that no one could cross. 6 He asked me, “Son of man, do you see this?”

Then he led me back to the bank of the river. 7 When I arrived there, I saw a great number of trees on each side of the river. 8 He said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah,[b] where it enters the Dead Sea. When it empties into the sea, the salty water there becomes fresh. 9 Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live. 10 Fishermen will stand along the shore; from En Gedi to En Eglaim there will be places for spreading nets. The fish will be of many kinds—like the fish of the Mediterranean Sea. 11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt. 12 Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.”

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem







Oh LORD,
Our God!
Sanctified and Holy is Your Most hallowed Name.
How Excellent, How Wonderful,
How Perfect You Are!
My heart is Overwhelmed With Your Glory,
Your Magnificence,
and Your Power!
When I think of how Awesome You Are,
Of How You Transcend Time and Space,
Of How You Created Everything That Is and Ever Was,
Of How You Tell History From the Beginning to The End
and the End to The Beginning,
Of How You Give us a Glimpse into Your Infinite Mind
through Your Holy and Unchanging Word,
How You Are Faithful To Your Promises Even When We Fall Away,
And How You Fulfill Every Jot and Tittle of Your Precepts,
When we ourselves fall so short of the target,
I just have to stop everything,
And say, "How Great and AWESOME YOU ARE!"

Let all that has been Concealed
Be Revealed.

Father, We Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Pray That You Will Forgive The Sins
of Our Own Nation,
and Lead us all to Godly Repentance.
Create in Us Clean Hearts, Oh LORD,
and Renew a Right Spirit Within Us.

This we Pray Together,
As We Await Your Messiah,
Blessed Be He,
To Set Up His Kingdom,
And Make All Things Right.



”The Greatest Of these Is Love.”

Two nights ago, I was washing my face to get ready for bed, and I reached for the moisturizer. I pumped the dispenser vigorously, and nothing came out. I searched all the drawers in the vanity, and I was completely out of facial moisturizer. The next day I rode the bike to the discount store to get some more, as regular stores charge an arm and a leg for the stuff I like.

My favorite face cream comes from Israel and contains minerals from the Dead Sea. These minerals seem to have all the ingredients necessary to keeping me looking not a DAY over 70! LOL. I found what I wanted at a reasonable price.

This wonderful windfall from a body of water thought to be "Dead" is yet another Twentieth Century Miracle from that part of the world. For centuries, people thought that the only thing one could get from the Dead Sea was Salt...and Too Much of that.

There is a reason the Dead Sea is "dead". Fresh water flows in from the Jordan River fin the North End, but there's no outlet on the South End. So the water just sits there, evaporating in the hot sun, leaving salt and minerals behind. The water system of The Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River, and the Dead Sea are a Parable in Nature that teaches an important lesson.

If a body of water, like the Dead Sea, only RECEIVES and doesn't GIVE, it stagnates. The same can be said of people.

Today's Passage from Ezekiel tells of a future Fresh Water River gushing forth from Jerusalem, connecting all the water systems in the area. From Jerusalem (which doesn't have any river right now) the river will flow west towards the Mediterranean and East towards the Dead Sea. Presumably, the water will keep flowing and find an outlet, thus making the Dead Sea Fresh. Fish will swim and the land will flourish.

This is a Reminder of the garden of Eden, with its Four Rivers, that we discussed at the beginning of this series.

Even if the "Dead Sea Minerals" business fades away, it won't matter because all things will become NEW.

Including my face. 😁

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

”Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” (Hosea 6:3 NIV)

Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America.

** If a body of water, like the Dead Sea, only RECEIVES and doesn’t GIVE, it stagnates. **

And Jesus said, it’s more blessed to give than to receive.

Amen !!! <><

Psalm 2

1 Why do the nations conspire,
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and his anointed, saying,
3 ‘Let us burst their bonds asunder,
and cast their cords from us.’

4 He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord has them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6 ‘I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.’

7 I will tell of the decree of the Lord:
He said to me, ‘You are my son;
today I have begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron,
and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.’

10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
with trembling 12kiss his feet,*
or he will be angry, and you will perish in the way;
for his wrath is quickly kindled.

Happy are all who take refuge in him.

This is a Prayer Thread.

Please abide by the FR rules.

There are plenty of other threads to post your venom. Stay away from this one.
