God's Eternal Capital & Covenant with Israel.
"..More are the children of the bond woman (Hagar) than the children of her who is married (Sarah) says the LORD."
(Isaiah 54:1)
There are 22 Arab states, 52 Muslim nations and the global population of Islam is 1.9 billion since 2020. On the other hand, as of March 2023, Israel's population stands at approximately 9.73 million and there is only one Jewish state.
Archeological discoveries of multiple ancient artifacts proves the Jews were living on the land thousands of years before the Romans named the place Palestine.
Whenever the Jews are home the land prospers. Whenever they are away in captivity the land becomes barren.
Nehemiah 1:8-9
"Remember the word which You commanded Your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful I will scatter you among the peoples; but if you return to Me and keep My commandments and do them, though those of you who have been scattered were in the most remote part of the earth, I will gather them from there and will bring them to the place where I have chosen to cause My name to dwell."
Prior to the jews return from exile in 1867, Mark Twain visited Palestine. He was disappointed with the emptiness and ruin of the land, as he stated that, "the further we went the hotter the sun got, and the more rocky and bare, repulsive and dreary the landscape became…There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere." (Mark Twain)
Since 1948, with the return of the jews, they have thrived by taking this barren wasteland from a barren desert to prosperity.
Many are condemning Israel and her very existence, saying that the land that the jews now occupy, belongs to the Palestinians.
Jerusalem doesn't belong to Christians, Jews, aliens, demons or Muslims.
"And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it." (Zachariah 12:3).
Any nation or global superpower, any religious sect or organization that tries to control the nation of Israel or its capital Jerusalem.
Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people roundabout, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. (Zachariah 12:2)
Let us remember that God's covenant with Abraham, Issac and Jacob is everlasting.
"If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth..."(Psalms 137:5-6)
Obviously, the destruction of Israel will never happen.
This Nation will be the central focus in these end times, straight into Armageddon. No!, Not Washington D.C., Not Beijing and not Moscow but Jerusalem.
JERUSALEM! JERUSALEM! the eternal capital of God, where the Messiah's millennium reign will proceed into eternity.
At that time they will call Jerusalem ‘The Throne of the Lord,’ and all the nations will be gathered to it, to Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord; nor will they walk anymore after the stubbornness of their evil heart (Jeremiah 3:17)
God never claimed anywhere else as his own, only one piece of real-estate "JERUSALEM."
We are told to Continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
