Read: Zechariah 12:1-13:9; Revelation 19:1-21; Psalm 147:1-20; Proverbs 31:1-7
God has always protected Jerusalem. It is a testimony of God’s faithfulness and will continue to be. We are seeing prophecy come to pass as Jerusalem is being named the capital of Israel and America is moving our embassy from Tel-Aviv to Jerusalem. Jerusalem is divided into four parts owned by the Palestinians, Armenians, Israelis and Christians. This move by our president is a bold statement that is sparking controversy all over the world.
In today’s reading, God promises to save the dwellings of Judah and shield those who live in Jerusalem that that the feeblest among them will be like David. God will destroy all nations that attack Jerusalem. God will give the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication and they will turn to Jesus and accept him as their Messiah.
In Revelation we have the celebration in heaven and on earth of Christ’s wedding. Jesus makes his triumphant entry in his splendor and glory. He is no longer the suffering servant but the conquering king. He gathers his army to fight Satan’s trinity. The beast and the false prophet are thrown into the lake of fire and his followers were killed and eaten by the birds. This is the feast of Leviathan. The bride will go to the Marriage feast of the Lamb.
Lord, thank you that you are the loving father who heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds. May we be your instrument of peace today.
