"Pray for the PEACE of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee." (Ps 122:6)
The Peace of Jerusalem.
This might sound weird to you, but the verse doesn't say for this peace to come every enemy of Israel/Jerusalem will suddenly stop fighting, or they will just in a twinkle of an eye fall in love with Israel. Nope!
What this verse is saying is that the LORD of hosts and of war should move suddenly descend upon the enemies of Israel. Those that will resist Him will be consumed, while those that fear Him will be spared. There is no war without bloodshed. PRAY WITH THIS UNDERSTANDING.
Emotional Christians.
Reasoning and ideologies contrary to the scriptures won't help us a bit. The LORD that we serve is The Prince of Peace Himself. ONLY Him can bring peace. He is the LORD of Hosts of heaven. His vest is dipped in Blood...
"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and MAKE WAR. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was CLOTHED WITH A VESTURE DIPPED IN BLOOD: and his name is called The Word of God." (Rev 19:11-13)
... and MANY DO NOT KNOW HIM WHO IS "THE WORD OF GOD". Many DO NOT yet know the WORD OF GOD. HE is the coming Christ, The Righteous Judge that make war, wearing a vest dipped in Blood (the blood of His enemies)! Our LORD is forever justified to judge and make war, and still be justified before God. Right now as we speak, He is covering over Israel-Jerusalem, and it's blood, blood, blood!!! He ALONE can bring peace, and not that kind of peace emotional Christians are expecting.
ISRAEL is the name of the LORD given to Jacob. Names are given when babies are born into this world, or to new things. Jacob became Born-again to receive THIS name ISRAEL. Every born-again Christian bears the same family name= ISRAEL.
...and it's up to the enemies to either accept The Prince of Peace or be judged. Christians MUST pray for peace, it's our declaration of war! As the nation of Israel continues to defend herself, let Christians all over the world begin to declare Peace! Peace!! Peace!!! with this understanding... for this is our primary weapon. When the Prince of peace move, DO NOT BE DRIVEN EMOTIONALLY. Those that will be saved are being saved, and those that won't repent will be lost.
