AWAITING!! Watching & Praying
The Just shall live by Faith
Ge. 35:10-12 And God said unto him, Your name is Jacob: your name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be your name: and He called his name Israel; And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of you, and kings shall come out of your loins; And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to you will I give it, and to your seed after you will I give the Land. ( In the coming Kingdom Age, Israel will possess all that God has promised! )
Deuteronomy 4:1-2 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the Statutes and unto the Judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that you my live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers gives you. You shall not add unto the Word which I command you, neither shall you diminish ought from it, that you may keep the Commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. ( Israel messed up by adding over 600 oral laws to the original law of Moses. )
De. 4:5-7 Behold, I have taught you Statutes and Judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that you should do so in the land where you go to possess it. Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these Statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. For what nation is there so great, who has God so near unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon Him for?
De. 7:6-9 For you are an holy people unto the LORD your God: the LORD your God has chosen you to be a special people unto Himself, above all people who are upon the face of the Earth. The LORD did not set His love upon you, nor choose you because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all people: But because the LORD loved you, and because He would keep the oath which He had sworn unto your fathers, has the LORD brought you with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know therefore that the LORD you God, the faithful God, which keeps covenant and mercy with them who love Him and keep His Commandments to a thousand generations;
THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO NATHAN!
2 Samuel 7:10-13 Moreover I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime, and as since the time that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel, and have caused you to rest from all your enemies. Also the LORD tells you that He will make you and house. And when your days be fulfilled, and you shall sleep with your fathers, I will set up your seed after you, which shall proceed out of your bowels, and I will establish His Kingdom. ( The LORD Jesus Christ ) He shall build an house for My Name, and I will stablish the Throne of His Kingdom for ever. vs. 16-17 And your house and your kingdom shall be established for ever before you: your throne shall be established for ever. According to all these words, and according to all this Vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
KING DAVID'S PRAYER
2 Samuel 7:22-29 Wherefore You are great, O LORD God: for there is none like You, neither is there any God beside You, according to all that we have heard with our ears. And what one nation in the Earth is like Your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to Himself, and to make Him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for Your land, before Your people, which you redeemed to Yourself from Egypt, from the nations and their gods? For You have confirmed to Yourself Your people Israel to be a people unto You for ever: and You, LORD, are become their God. And now O LORD God, the Word that You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, establish it forever, and do as You have said. And let Your Name be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of Hosts is the God over Israel: and let the house of Your servant David be established before You. For You, O LORD of Hosts, God of Israel, have revealed to Your servant, saying, I will build you an house; therefore has Your servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto You. And now O LORD God, You are that God, and Your Words be true, and You have promised this goodness unto Your servant: Therefore now let it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue for ever before You: for You, O LORD God, have spoken it: and with Your blessing let the house of Your servant be blessed forever.
Psalms 135:4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His peculiar treasure.
Isaiah 43:1-7 But now thus saith the LORD Who created you, O Jacob, and He Who formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you by name; you are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you ; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Saviour: I gave Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for you. Since you were precious in My sight, you have been honourable, and I have loved you: therefore will I give men for you, and people for your life. Fear not: for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east, and gather you from the west; I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the Earth; (this will take place after the Second Coming, because Israel will have made Christ her Saviour) Even every one who is called by My name: for I have created him for My glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
GOD'S SPIRIT TO BE UPON ISRAEL
Isaiah 44:1-5 Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen: Thus saith the LORD Who made you, and formed you from the womb, which will help you; Fear not, O Jacob, My servant; and you, Jesurun, whom I have chosen. For I will pour water upon him who is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour My Spirit upon your seed, and My blessing upon your offspring: And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses. ( Israel rejected Pentecost 2000 years ago, but when Christ returns the Holy Spirit will pour Himself out upon Israel and they will blossom as the willows!) One shall say, I am the LORD'S and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
AN EVERLASTING SALVATION FOR ISRAEL
Isaiah 45:14-17 Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto you, and they shall be yours: they shall come after you; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto you, they shall make supplication unto you, saying, Surely God is in you; and there is none else, there is no God. ( In the future, they will come up to Jerusalem with love and repentance, bringing their wealth with them, confessing that their is only One, True God!) Verily You are a God who hides Yourself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together who are makers of idols. ( in the Kingdom Age, all religions will be ashamed for not believing in Jesus Christ) But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting Salvation: you shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end. (PRAISE THE LORD!!!)
vs. 25 IN THE LORD SHALL ALL THE SEED OF ISRAEL BE JUSTIFIED, AND SHALL GLORY.
The world in general may hate you O Israel, but I declare my love for you. God chose you long ago as a nation unto Himself. I have a love and a respect for Jews all over the world, because before Jehovah was my God, He was yours! Only because of your unbelief and rejection of the Messiah, the LORD Jesus Christ, can I testify and say I'm on my way to Heaven. I was wild by nature, grafted in from a wild olive tree. Now by the great inward work of the Holy Ghost, I am a woman who loves the LORD Jesus Christ more than anything on this Earth. I owe my every breath to Him and Him alone!
As the Prophet Samuel said in 1 Sam. 12:22-24, so I say unto you Israel. For the Lord will not forsake His people for His great name's sake: because it has pleased the LORD to make you His people. Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way: Only fear the LORD, and serve Him with all your heart: for consider how great things He has done for you.
Jesus Christ is the King of kings and LORD of lords and He will reign as King over the whole Earth one Glorious Day from the New Jerusalem. That Great City, the Holy Jerusalem, will descend out of Heaven from God.
And on that note, I will close with....
Psalms 122
I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the House of the LORD. Our feet shall stand within your gates, O Jerusalem. Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together: Whither the tribes go up, the Tribes of the LORD, unto the Testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the Name of the LORD. For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the House of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within you. Because of the House of the LORD will I seek your good.
