Anyone who actually studies the Word of God and gives the Word top priority in their lives are left with absolutely no doubt who the city of Jerusalem belongs to! Look at Psalm 122:1-4:
1 I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of the Lord! 2 Our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!— 3 Jerusalem, which is built as a city that is compacted together— 4 To which the tribes go up, even the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed and as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. 5 For there the thrones of judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.
This Psalm was written by David and was sung by the Jewish people as they made their way to Jerusalem to celebrate the Feasts of God. When you encounter a person who claims to be a Christian but still says that God is finished with the Jews or that anyone else has a legitimate claim to Jerusalem as their capital, then you have found a person who does NOT know the Word of God! Refuse to accept any "theory" (a supposition based on ignorance of the subject at hand) that is contrary to the Word of God. What are we supposed to do in the face of such a contradiction to the Word of God? Verses 6-9 tell us exactly what to do!
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May they prosper who love you [the Holy City]! 7 May peace be within your walls and prosperity within your palaces! 8 For my brethren and companions’ sake, I will now say, Peace be within you! 9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek, inquire for, and require your good.
Pray! Pray for the peace and prosperity of the nation of Israel and it's capital city of Jerusalem! Pray for their protection, provision and safety. Pray that the people of Israel will come to know Jesus (Yeshua) as their Messiah and Lord! YOU will be in God's perfect will and HE will reward your obedience! AMEN! You also have THIS promise from 3 John 2 in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today!
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know] your soul keeps well and prospers.
Putting the Word of God as your top priority and final authority will cause you to have a prosperous soul! Everything else falls into place! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with another new song called "In God We Trust":
Shalom in Him!
