The Heart of God for Israel預覽

JERUSALEM WILL BE CALLED THE THRONE OF GOD

God has a glorious future for Jerusalem related to His presence in her. Jeremiah sees that she will be called the throne of the Lord, although he lamented about the abundance of her sins in his time. God has a plan to transform Jerusalem entirely through His glory. She will be known as a place where God rules. His presence will change hearts; they will reject evil. Sin will have no more power.

The Shekinah glory of the Lord will not only be in the temple but over the whole city. God will establish His government over Jerusalem. This capital, once rebuked for her rebellion by the prophets, will be an example of righteousness. God will demonstrate His zeal and transforming power in Jerusalem. She will be a trophy of grace in His hand.

God will reign from Jerusalem, and all the nations will gather to His throne, to the name of the Lord, and to Jerusalem. Is there any more explicit evidence that Jerusalem has a special place in God’s heart? All the people will see and acknowledge that God has a unique love for Jerusalem, and they will actually come to the city. The most hostile nations to Israel will not only gather to the Lord but they will gather to Jerusalem. All the peoples will submit to the government of God and align with His sovereign choice of Jerusalem. Their hearts will be set free from evil.

PRAYER

Our Father,

We bless Your holy name. We praise You for Your heart and plan for Jerusalem. She will be called The Throne of the Lord. We thank You for this demonstration of Your jealousy and its transforming power. Jerusalem will be a trophy of Your persevering love.

We pray that You will enlighten the hearts of Your children all over the earth. Let them see the glorious future of Jerusalem, the city You love so much. Let them understand how Your zealous love can transform a sinful city into a place of Your glory.

We pray that You protect Your children from the spirit of the age and from siding with those who hate Jerusalem or with those who write her off because of her current rebellion against You.

We pray for the Jewish people to encounter Jesus, their Messiah, and be transformed into His image.

In the name of Jesus. Amen.
