Meditation of the week: Psalms 121:1-8

Main scripture: Psalms 122:1-9

Subject: Look forward the day when the feet of the remnant of Israel and of us shall stand within the gates of Israel

           This is a song when King David praised the Lord on the way up to the temple of God; he praised God, and he prophesied with the anointment of the Holy Ghost of the days of the Millennium kingdom of the Lord Jesus when he shall going up the temple of God that shall be built by the Lord(EZ 40-46).

              King David saw the things in the Holy Ghost that shall be happening in the future, and testified of it. When the day comes, all the Jews that have been scattered to the face of the earth shall return to Jerusalem not leaving any one of them (Amos 9:15).; and they shall rejoice of the Lord God with the shouting of praising him on the way up to the temple of God that shall no more be destroyed forever. He prophesied saying, “Our feet shall stand within the gates of Jerusalem.”

               In the year of AD 70, the city of Jerusalem including the temple of God was destroyed by Titus, the general of Roman Empire not leaving a stone on a stone. Since then, the people of Israel lost their nation, and scattered to all the earth to wander. They cried out saying, “the blood (of Jesus) be on us, and on our children!”(Matt. 27″25) asking Jesus to be crucified. The God of righteousness couldn’t help judging them forty years later. Titus crucified five hundreds of the Jew out side of Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified.

            But the LORD God had king David prophesy of the day when the feet of the remnant of Israel shall stand in the gates of Jerusalem after the day of the Lord come. To fulfill the word of God, God allowed Israel to be declared as a independent nation again on May 14, 1948, after 1900 hundred years have passed by. God had planed to use America, and he allowed hundreds of the Jew to be with Christopher Columbus when he was going to make second voyage to the land of America in 1493; they had been persecuted and tortured by the Queen, Isabella in Spain. God used Columbus (he was a Jew) and some other Jews supported them financially so that they might be able to travel to America. Actually, they landed in the new continent of America ahead of the Protestants from England.

            Not only this, later God used the Jews to support Gorge Washington in the midst of the war of Revolution in the brink of being defeated by the Southern army because of no money, no food, no weapon and no clothes left at all. Haym Solomon, a Jew donated millions of Dollars unto George Washington so that he could lead his army unto victory.

              God also used America to declare the independence of Israel through United Nation in 1948. Truman, the president of United States of America at that time was willing to vote for the independence of Israel; bur he came across the threats from his cabinet member saying they will resign if the President votes for Israel. Then, Truman asked the cabinet to give him three days for him think about it. For three days, Truman searched the scriptures to find out for the will of God. The Holy Ghost led him to read of Cyrus, the king of Persia; he was anointed by the Holy Ghost, and the LORD God wanted to use him to fulfill the prophesy spoken through Jeremiah of the restoration of Israel. And king Cyrus proclaimed for the people of Israel to return to their home land to build their temple of God. The Holy Ghost anointed Truman very strongly so that he became to have very strong confidence to be the second king Cyrus for Israel. Finally, he signed on the paper to vote for Israel surrounded by his cabinet members.

                Almost prophets in the books of Old Testament had prophesied of the people of Israel that shall return to the land of Promise given to Abraham some day, after they repent their sins of Idolatry after they are chastened by the LORD God. As the LORD God gave the word of promise, saying, “I will bless them that bless thee; and curse him that curseth thee.”(Gen. 12:3), the kingdoms of Babylon, Assyria, Egypt, Media, Persia, Greece, and Roman Empire and all other nations had been cursed because they cursed Israel as the history proves. Even in the future, all the nations including America shall have the same destiny, if they curse Israel. When Jesus Christ divides the nation of the goat from of the lamb(matt. 25:31-46) when he return at the end of the Great Tribulation. Then he is going to fulfill the covenant given unto Abraham four thousand years ago.

            There is an important example that God was with Israel to protect her to fulfill his will historically. It was at the time of the war 1967 against the nations of Arab. All the Arabic nations were totally against the independence of Israel even though Israel was recognized as an independent nation by the United Nation. All the Arabic nations intruded Israel. At that time, Israel was so poor in her defending power against the war. Israel had even a bombing fighter at all without any Air Force. Israel was going to be destroyed by the bomber of the Arabic nations. In the midst of such kind of environment, Israel won not only a great victory against the Arabic nations, but also they became to occupy the eastern part of Jerusalem for the first time.

              There many examples that God was with Israel for them win the war in the midst of Six Day War in 1967.

Just before the Arabic fighters destroyed Israel with their bomb, God inspired several pilots in America: They became urgency to prepare their war plains to bomb the fighters of Arabic nations. They tried to assemble the parts left over from the second World War. With the help of God, they could hit all the war plains of Arabic nation to destroy them all not leaving any one of the,

              As an another example, two Jewish soldiers was going to join with their company in the midst of retreat; all of sudden Egyptian armies began to attack them with their tanks as well as rifles. They had no chance at all to survive; and they had to attack them unto death. What a miracle happened before them! All the Egyptian soldiers surrendered to them all of sudden making their hands up to be prisoners giving them up. What happen to them was that God malfunctioned all their weapons right away. The defeated soldiers became heroes all of sudden to join with their company proudly.

              One day, Syrian armies was attacking Israelis army as roaring waves; there was no chance at all for the army of Israel to survive but to death. Israelis army went forth to fight with them without any other choice. All of sudden, all the Syrian armies threw away all their weapons, and fell down to the ground to surrender. They were so much surprised at seeing the heavenly angels of the LORD of the Host sent by the Lord.

              As an another example, many civilians had to hide themselves from the air raids of Arabic air force as storms. Unfortunately a bomb was dropped in the house where Israelis hided. But thank God! The bomb was not exploded but only was dig into the ground. There are so many examples of God’s hand protection Israelis for them to win the victory.

              God has allowed Israel to wander in the earth for 1900 years; and he will give them the final chance for repentance through the Great Tribulation of seven years as prophesied as one week by Daniel to restore the nation of Israel. All the nations shall attack Israel; then, the Lord Jesus Christ will come down from heaven to deliver Israel judging all nations (Zech 14:1-3, Rev. 19:11-21), And he will marching into the city of Jerusalem. Then all the tribes of Israel shall give thanks unto the Lord, and shall go up to the temple of God with joy. God is still working for the people of Israel so that they return the land of promise using his servants. As the examples, a Jewish Rabbi testified, the black Jews returned from the land of Ethiopia are of the tribe of Dan; and another black Jews from India are of the tribe of Manasseh.

                When the Lord Jesus Christ come down to the Mount Olive, not only the remnant of Israel, but also the church of God that was raptured that is the bride of Christ shall come with him, and go up to the temple of God together with the Jews to praise the Lord together. Prophet Zechariah prophesied saying, “And the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.'(Zech 14:5). Even Jude also prophesied saying, “And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints.'(Jude 1:14)

              Then, in Israel there shall be set thrones of judgment. The Lord Jesus Christ shall be the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords; and king David shall be the prince of Israel (EZ. 34:23,24). And twelve apostles shall sit in the thrones to judge the twelve tribes (Matt. 19:25) Then, Jerusalem shall be city of peace forever more.

            Yeah! This is the reason why we should pray for the peace of Jerusalem, We shall be blessed by God as God promised to Abraham. Not only for Israel, but also we have to pray for the politicians of America where we are dwelling knowing that America has been falling down spiritually since the first Catholic president, John Kennedy was elected. America has supported Israel, but nowadays, against Israel to touch the apple of the eye of God (Zech 2:8). God has paid back to America as done to Israel, blessing or curses. Recently, innocent citizens of America have been passing through famine, diseases, earthquakes, and tornados and so on, because of ignorant politicians spiritually including the president. Apostle Paul testified of the reason why we have to pray for the politicians saying,

“ exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.1Tim. 2:1,2)

         it is the real time when we have faith in God that will help us in whatsoever situation as he has done to Israel. Even in the days of trouble believing his love and mercy only asking us to be purified in our heart before we see the Lord sooner of later. Amen! Hallelujah!
