"For Zion's Sake"

One of the theme verses for this ministry and its messages each week is Isaiah 62:1,7 that says, "For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem's sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch. Give Him no rest till He establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth." These verses from God's Word encourage us to speak out and pray for Israel until our Lord God makes Jerusalem "A Praise In The Earth." It is believed this will occur when Jesus comes back to earth and establishes His eternal kingdom in the rebuilt temple of Jerusalem.

On January 15th representatives of 72 nations gathered in Paris to once again condemn Israel. These 72 nations gathered to propose that the borders of Israel should revert back to the borders prior to 1967 which would mean that Judea, Samaria and East Jerusalem would be part of a future Palestinian State. This would also mean the Temple Mount and the Western Wall would not be part of Israel anymore. However, in response to God's people not remaining silent, the only proposal agreed upon at the conference was to encourage Israel and the Palestinians to start peace negotiations again.  

Hallelujah! Our Lord God responded to the prayers and intercessions of His people. I believe there were multiplied millions of God's people, who love Israel, obeying His word prior to and during the Paris Conference. Indeed, they obeyed Isiah 62:1,7 and "Did Not Remain Silent."

I also believe what transpired in Paris was an enactment of Psalm 83. Notice verses 1-4 saying, "O God, do not keep silent; be not quiet, O God, be not still. See how your enemies are astir, how your foes rear their heads. With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those You cherish. Come, they say, let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more." Notice also verses 16-18 which are a prayer asking our Lord God to "Put To Shame" those who "Consult Together" against His people Israel. Reports from Paris indicated division among the attendees and even fear of making too strong a statement against Israel. 

Our God Still Reigns!

As a result, let me encourage all of God's people to live out Isaiah 62;1,7 each day. Be bold and "Do Not Remain Silent." 

May The Lord Bless You This Day And Each Day,
