An older blog post I once wrote, that disappeared on here. I thought it worth posting again ....

 

And the LORD said to Abram, Go out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father’s house into a land that I will show you. And I will make you a great nation. And I will bless you and make your name great. And you shall be a blessing. And I will bless those that bless you and curse the one who curses you. And in you shall all families of the earth be blessed. (Genesis 12:1-3)

The headlines speak of the war in Gaza. The world is outraged. Israel dares to defend itself against the incessant bombing from Hamas. The world is demanding that the UN call an immediate ceasefire. All Israel wants is that Hamas stops bombing them. That isn’t too much to ask for. If a group bombed your country regularly, wouldn’t you demand your leaders stop them? Why is it everyone except Israel can defend itself?

The bible says that Israel is God’s chosen people. Through whom Jesus came. Through whom the Lord chose to reveal Himself. They need Jesus to be saved, no doubt there. He still regards them as His people though. We should not forget the root of Jesse. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a sharer of the root and the fatness of the olive tree with them, do not boast against the branches. But if you boast, it is not you that bears the root, but the root bears you. (Romans 11:17-18).

I support Israel’s right to defend itself against the terrorists of Hamas. I will bless Israel. We should all pray for Israel.

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

Psalm 122 

I was glad when they said to me,
    “Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
 Our feet have been standing
    within your gates, O Jerusalem!

 Jerusalem—built as a city
    that is bound firmly together,
 to which the tribes go up,
    the tribes of the Lord,
as was decreed for Israel,
    to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
 There thrones for judgment were set,
    the thrones of the house of David.

 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
    “May they be secure who love you!
 Peace be within your walls
    and security within your towers!”
 For my brothers and companions' sake
    I will say, “Peace be within you!”
 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
    I will seek your good.

 

 

Pray  for the peace of Jerusalem!

“May they be secure who love you!
 Peace be within your walls
    and security within your towers!”
 

“Peace be within you!”
