Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem






Dear Father in Heaven,
How Hallowed and Holy is Your Name!
You Alone Are Worthy of Praise and Worship,
For You Alone Are The One True God.
Thank You For Your Faithfulness,
And providing For Us Even Before We Ask.

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.

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem







Isaiah 53:6

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

(King James Version)

______________________________________________

The next section of Handel's Messiah causes some humorous remarks from Vocal Students when we talk about Phrasing. "Where's the comma?" they ask. Alas there is no punctuation in the Hebrew Text, so the translation doesn't have any either. "We, like sheep, have gone astray" comes out as "We Like Sheep." After I let the student indulge in a bit of laughter, I patiently explain Isaiah 53, which sobers them up right away.

Here's The Link.

After singing the slow, tragic song based on Isaiah 53:5, the Chorus bursts into a whirling, overlapping chorus about sheep. It is startling, and almost foolish-sounding, as the voices swirl around and collide, much like a flock of very silly straying sheep. Just when you think it can't get any more chaotic, the chaos stops abruptly, and the mood changes drastically for the very last line...."And The LORD laid upon Him the iniquity of us all".

Although the "Hallelujah Chorus" is the most famous and beloved chorus from Handel's Messiah, this one (We, Like Sheep) is, in my opinion, a true gem of Musical Drama. Handel uses notes, rhythms, and harmonies to create the maelstrom of humanity, each going to his own way, trusting not in God, but in themselves, like a massive flock of stupid, unthinking, self-centered, straying sheep.

To this day, we use this analogy. We call the blind followers of This Present Darkness, "SHEEPLE."

It's also interesting to note that the very talented Youth Chorus singing this song about SHEEP are standing six feet apart. That's a giveaway that this video was produced sometime in the last six years. Think about it.

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)

Amen, we like sheep 6 feet apart, now if they were sitting they could be closer, because that is below the covid line.

Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem.

I LOVE the Messiah!

Sang it often throughout the years, and yes, LOVE this portion...." BUT THE LORD has LAID ON HIM".... the iniquity of us all.

Can't help but burst into the Youth for Christ chorus we sang YEARS ago....

" Thank you Lord, for saving my soul;

Thank You Lord, for making me whole;

Thank You Lord, for giving to me;

....Thy great SALVATION so rich and free."

Amen !!! <>< (NOTE:We must pray this daily from here on out)

Psalm 91

1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
16 With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.
