Tears stream down Jesus' face as He mourns the loss of Israel failure to recognize the Prince of Peace, the King of Heaven had visited their very home. Now, hemmed in on every side, Israel does not know peace. Yet, we are commanded to pray for the peace of Israel. <br /><br />I have so many questions. Why do we pray for something we know will not be until the End of Time? Why wasn't Jonathan the man after God's own heart that followed Saul as king? The Sovereign One knows and will make all things right. Knowing the Day of His return will be a terrifying thing for any who are here in that time, we still pray, "Come quickly Lord, Jesus." Despite the gruesome horror of that hour, we long for Justice, His Justice that is based on pure holiness. Our souls long for Him to be set rightly upon His Throne over heaven and earth. Even rocks cry out. Blessed is He Who Comes! Hosanna! Save us!annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12993065518117027383noreply@blogger.com
