It definitely has morphed into
a War; by all intents and by all definitions---regardless of how many days it
will take. There is thus a War that has exploded. It has caught the attention
of the entire World. The World has been and continues to be in the midst of a
Global Pandemic (The Coronavirus). But then the attention of the World has
suddenly shifted to the events currently happening in Israel.
It is very important to note
that Israel is the Time Clock of The LORD God Almighty, Anything happening
therein is and should be a pointer to very significant dispensational shift and
alignment in God’s Prophetic Calendar.
The LORD God Almighty gave
Jacob (Israel), through Abraham and Isaac the Promised Land of Israel. The LORD
did also Speak Prophetic declaration upon the descendants of Jacob (Israel), in
His Holy Book (The Bible). Some of these are as follows:
1-God
sent them to exile due to their disobedience (sinfulness and Rebellion against
The LORD their God), but promised to return them out of the nations upon which
they had been scattered, back to the holy land of Israel, to possess
(re-possess) it.
God also Promised to return
them back to the Palace (The City of Jerusalem; the seat of King David---which
will also be the seat of The KING of Kings: Jesus Christ The Messiah).
That upon their return to the Holy
land of Israel, they will rebuild the City of Jerusalem; upon its foundations.
2-God
Warned them of attacks from their enemies (particularly their neighbours and
even nations from afar: Gog-he of the land of Magog, Persia-Iran etc.), even as
they dwelled upon the land; having returned upon the land.
God Promised to deal severely
against those who oppress them. God thus promised to fight for them; against
their enemies, oppressors and those who terrorize them.
3-God
Warned them of tough times coming upon the land; particularly Jerusalem, but
also the entire land of Israel.
God thus Warned them of a
coming desolation, distress and wailing upon the land; in the latter days of
their return upon the land.
The Time of Jacob’s Trouble.
4-God
Warned them of their hearts being hardened, due to their disobedience. But that
their eyes and their hearts will be opened, and they will be Saved from this
state of stupor (callousness of the heart); in the latter days.
God thus Promised to Heal the
descendants of Jacob (the children of Israel). Meaning, to Revive them, to
Restore them, to Renew them, to Save them. To bring to them the True Message of
Salvation of Christ Jesus The Messiah (Yeshua Ha Mashiach).
5-God
Promised to send them Elijah; the messenger of the Covenant---to return
(lead/direct/guide/point) them and restore them to The LORD, in Preparing the
way for the Coming of The Messiah (their KING) to Jerusalem; to establish His
Throne therein.
6-God
Warned and Promised them that, He will correct them in Justice, and will not
let them go altogether unpunished; for their disobedience in the past and in
the present.
Hence, The Time of Jacob’s
Trouble; a time of purging, purification and refining of the Children of
Israel. For The LORD will be seeking an offering of Repentance, an offering of
Righteousness, an offering of Holiness.
SHALOM!!!
NOTE: The
above should give us a contextual understanding of events currently happening
in the land of Israel, events that have already happened in Israel and events
that are soon to happen in Israel: The Holy Land of God; Promised to Jacob
(Israel) through Abraham.
Israel is very Ripe for The
Time of Jacob's Trouble.
SHALOM!!!
Jeremiah
30:1-3 ‘“The word that
came to Jeremiah from The LORD, saying, “Thus speaks The LORD God of Israel,
saying: ‘Write in a book for yourself all the words that I have spoken to you. For
behold, the days are coming,’ says The LORD, ‘that I will bring back from
captivity My people Israel and Judah,’ says The LORD. ‘And I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their
fathers, and they shall possess it.”’
Jeremiah
30: 4-7 ‘“Now
these are the words that The LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah. “For thus
says The LORD: ‘We have heard a voice of trembling, Of fear, and not of peace. Ask
now, and see, Whether a man is ever in labor with child? So why do I see every
man with his hands on his loins Like a woman in labor, And all faces turned pale? Alas! For that day is great, So that none is
like it; And it is the time of Jacob’s trouble, But he shall be saved out of it.”’
Jeremiah
30: 10-11 ‘“Therefore
do not fear, O My servant Jacob,’ says The LORD, ‘Nor be dismayed, O Israel; For
behold, I will save you from afar, And your seed from the land of their
captivity. Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet, And no one shall make
him afraid. For I am with you,’ says The LORD, ‘to save you; Though I make a
full end of all nations where I have scattered you, Yet I will not make a complete end of you. But I will correct you in
justice, And will not let you go altogether unpunished.”’
Jeremiah
30: 16-17 ‘“Therefore
all those who devour you shall be devoured; And all your adversaries, every one
of them, shall go into captivity; Those
who plunder you shall become plunder, And all who prey upon you I will make a
prey. For I will restore health to you And heal you of your wounds,’ says The
LORD, ‘Because they called you an outcast saying: “This is Zion; No one seeks
her.”’
Jeremiah
30: 18-22 ‘“Thus
says The LORD: ‘Behold, I will bring back the captivity of Jacob’s tents, And
have mercy on his dwelling places; The
city shall be built upon its own mound, And the palace shall remain according
to its own plan. Then out of them shall proceed thanksgiving And the voice
of those who make merry; I will multiply them, and they shall not diminish; I
will also glorify them, and they shall not be small. Their children also shall be as before, And their congregation shall be
established before Me; And I will punish all who oppress them. Their nobles
shall be from among them, And their governor shall come from their midst; Then
I will cause him to draw near, And he shall approach Me; For who is this who
pledged his heart to approach Me?’ says The LORD. ‘You shall be My people, And
I will be your God.”’
Jeremiah
31:15-20 ‘“Thus
says The LORD: “A voice was heard in Ramah, Lamentation and bitter weeping,
Rachel weeping for her children, Refusing to be comforted for her children,
Because they are no more.” Thus says The
LORD: “Refrain your voice from weeping, And your eyes from tears; For your work
shall be rewarded, says The LORD, And they shall come back from the land of the
enemy. There is hope in your future, says The LORD, That your children shall
come back to their own border. “I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning
himself: ‘You have chastised me, and I was chastised, Like an untrained bull;
Restore me, and I will return, For You are The LORD my God. Surely, after my
turning, I repented; And after I was instructed, I struck myself on the thigh;
I was ashamed, yes, even humiliated, Because I bore the reproach of my youth.’
Is Ephraim My dear son? Is he a pleasant child? For though I spoke against him,
I earnestly remember him still; Therefore
My heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy on him, says The LORD.”’
Isaiah
6: 9-10 ‘“And
He said, “Go, and tell this people: ‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand; Keep
on seeing, but do not perceive.’ “Make the heart of this people dull, And their
ears heavy, And shut their eyes; Lest they see with their eyes, And hear with
their ears, And understand with their heart, And return and be healed.”’
Ezekiel
38: 1-12 ‘“Now
the word of The LORD came to me, saying, “Son of man, set your face against
Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy
against him, and say, ‘Thus says The LORD God: “Behold, I am against you, O
Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out,
with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great
company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. Persia,
Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer
and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its
troops—many people are with you. “Prepare yourself and be ready, you and all
your companies that are gathered about you; and be a guard for them. After many days you will be visited. In the
latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword
and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been
desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell
safely. You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud,
you and all your troops and many peoples with you.” ‘Thus says The LORD
God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind,
and you will make an evil plan: You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of
unwalled villages; I will go to a
peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having
neither bars nor gates’—to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your
hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a
people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who
dwell in the midst of the land.”’
Ezekiel
38: 18-23 ‘“And
it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel,”
says The LORD God, “that My fury will show in My face. For in My jealousy and
in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: ‘Surely in that day there shall be a
great earthquake in the land of Israel, so that the fish of the sea, the birds
of the heavens, the beasts of the field, all creeping things that creep on the
earth, and all men who are on the face of the earth shall shake at My presence.
The mountains shall be thrown down, the steep places shall fall, and every wall
shall fall to the ground.’ I will call for a sword against Gog throughout all
My mountains,” says The LORD God. “Every man’s sword will be against his
brother. And I will bring him to judgment with pestilence and bloodshed; I will
rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him,
flooding rain, great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. Thus I will magnify
Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations.
Then they shall know that I am The LORD.”’
Malachi
3: 1-3 ‘“Behold, I send
My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And The LORD, whom you
seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, In
whom you delight. Behold, He is coming,” Says The LORD of hosts. “But who can
endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire And like
launderers’ soap. He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will
purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer
to The LORD An offering in righteousness.”’
Malachi
4: 5-6 ‘“Behold, I will
send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of The
LORD. And he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the
hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with
a curse.”’
Mathew
23: 37-39 ‘“O
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are
sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen
gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! See! Your house is left to you desolate;
for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, ‘Blessed is He who
comes in the name of The LORD!”’
PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD. JESUS CHRIST (THE
MESSIAH) IS COMING TO PICK HIS REPENTANT, HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, WISE AND FAITHFUL
SONS AND DAUGHTERS (THE BRIDE OF CHRIST).
