A substantial portion of Scripture is prophetic text, disclosing God’s predetermined plan of redemption in the first and second comings of the Messiah. It is our job to study His Word and share this prophetic plan with the world around us, because too many have never heard such good news!
For decades, since the reign of King Solomon, the people of Israel had been slowly replacing worship of the One True God with pagan worship and sacrificing to false gods. They sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord. Finally, the Lord had declared disaster on the people. He was now returning their evil on their own heads.
We are placed on this earth to bring glory to God, and our highest calling is to honor Him in all areas of life. But here's the thing: we cannot glorify God if we are also trying to glorify ourselves. Humility is an essential factor in our ability to fulfill His purposes in our lives and to stay in sync with the things that matter to Him.
A cry of revival is going forth throughout America. It is the sound of God's people crying out for the Almighty to save us from the state of depravity that is drowning our nation. All around we see corruption, perversion, immorality, and even demonic activity. Some Christians long to be raptured out, but God has a high calling for our lives for such a time as this!
A home can be just another building or it can be a place of spiritual investment. Those who lay foundations in the Word of God and on Jesus Christ will be able to weather any storm and have a lasting impact. Whether you live in an apartment, a condo, or a traditional house, gather your family for a dedication ceremony. Make the commitment today to start serving the Lord from your dwelling place.
There are two conflicting belief systems in this world, God's ways and man's ways. The way of the Spirit and the way of the flesh. God's Word promises that those who sow godliness will reap bountiful blessings. However, it also says that the ungodly will reap consequences for their sins. Those who bear good fruit are those who do the will of God, and they will reap eternal life. And those who do not bear good fruit, those who reject and rebel against the ways of God, are headed for eternal death.
Like the ancient nation of Israel, America started out by dedicating itself to God. Our forefathers made a covenant with God Almighty that we would follow His commands and stand apart from other nations. Now, our nation looks much like Israel in the time of Ezekiel, when God declared He would judge the nation according to their ways and bring all their abominations upon them.
The biblical year is a pattern for the whole of human history. You have the period leading up to the springtime arrival of Jesus, then a summer of "working in the fields" to spread the Gospel, followed by His return in the fall to conclude the harvest and begin the Feast of Tabernacles — God dwelling with us. Today, we're going to look at an even earlier and more fundamental pattern of human history, which God established at the very beginning.
Find out what the Bible says about a very specific end times revival: the national salvation of Israel. This end times revival will be initiated when the Jewish people cry out, “Baruch ha-ba b’shem Adonai.” (Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.)
