THE DELEGITIMIZATION OF ISRAEL Part 1
THE UNIQUENESS OF ISRAEL –THE PEOPLE
Israel is a tiny strip of land no larger than New Jersey in America, no larger than Wales and smaller than the Kruger National Park, a wild game park in South Africa; yet Israel is always in the news.
So many people like America, the U.N., the E.U., Arab nations, other nations – even the Vatican – want to tell the Israelis what to do with Israel – and their focus is mostly on the delegitimizing of Israel. WHY?
You see, Israel is not only fighting a military war against its enemies but a political war fought on the battlefield of world public opinion as well as a spiritual war.
Throughout the ages there has been a fascination with Jewish history. People have questioned the "miracle of the continual existence of the Jewish people" - this despite the almost consistent world delight in their persecution and ridicule.
It has been said that the history of almost all of the Jewish holidays can be summed up in one sentence: "They wanted to kill us; we won. Let's eat."
Why has anti-Semitism been so pervasive in so many countries, in so many time periods and for so many reasons?
I begin to wonder; perhaps there is something wrong with us Jews. After all, there is an old Yiddish saying -- "If one person calls you a donkey, ignore him; if two people call you a donkey, buy a saddle."
Yet G-D declares in Isaiah 65:17-19: “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing, and her people a joy. I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in My people;”
G-D rejoices in His people, Israel; but the world would rather delegitimize them.
This is part one of a series of teachings on the delegitimization of Israel; I begin this series with ‘The uniqueness of Israel –the people’.

PROCLAMATIONS
“So shall My word be that goes forth from My Mouth; it shall not return to Me
void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for
which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11)
One of the best forms of prayer is to proclaim G-d’s word back to Him.
Whenever I proclaim G-d’s word back to Him, I make it personal and substitute ‘me’ for ‘you’.
We will be sharing proclamations with you each week, so that you in turn can proclaim them for your situation. These proclamations have been personalized to make it easier for you.
Remember, no matter what your situation, if you believe in your heart and have faith, you will be able to proclaim your way out of those situations.
We will also be sharing proclamations for Israel which we encourage you to proclaim.
STRENGTH FROM WORRY AND ANXIETY
Based on: Matthew 11:28-30: “I, who labour and who am heavy laden, come to You, and You will give me rest. I take Your yoke upon myself and learn from You, for You are gentle and lowly in heart, and I will find rest for my soul. For Your yoke is easy and Your burden is light."
PRESERVATION AND PROTECTION
Based on: Psalm 91:14-16: “Because I have set my love upon Him, therefore He will deliver me; He will set me on high, because I have known His name. I shall call upon Him, and He will answer me; He will be with me in trouble; He will deliver me and honour me. With long life He will satisfy me, and show me His salvation."
Psalm 91:9-13: “Because I have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most
High, my dwelling place, no evil shall befall me, nor shall any plague come near
my dwelling; for He shall give His angels charge over me, to keep me in all my
ways. In their hands shall they bear me up, lest I dash my foot against a stone. I
shall trample upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent I shall
trample underfoot.”
Psalm 91:4-7: “He shall cover me with His feathers, and under His wings I shall
take refuge; His truth shall be my shield and buckler. I shall not be afraid of the
terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks
in darkness; nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may
fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it shall not come near me.”
Based on: Exodus 23:20: “See, the Lord is sending an angel ahead of me to guard
me along the way and to bring me to the place He has prepared.”
Psalm 91:5-7: “The Lord shall cover me with His feathers, and under His wings I
shall take refuge; His truth shall be my shield and buckler. I shall not be afraid
of the terror by night’ nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence
that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A
thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it shall not
come near me.”
Based on: Psalm 91:1-3: “I who dwell in the secret place of the most High
abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge
and my fortress; my God, in Him will I trust. Surely He shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.”
Based on: Proverbs 3:5-6: “I trust in You, Lord, with all my heart and lean not
on my own understanding. In all my ways I acknowledge You, and You shall
direct my paths.”
Psalm 121:7-8: “The Lord shall preserve me from all evil; He shall preserve my
soul. The Lord shall preserve my going out and my coming in from this time forth,
and even for evermore.”
Psalm 27:1-6: “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The
Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came
against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell.
Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war may
rise against me, in this will I be confident.
One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the
house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to
enquire in His temple.
For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; in the secret place of
His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my
head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; therefore I will offer
sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.”
HEALTH AND STRENGTH
Based on: Proverbs 3:7-8: “I will not be wise in my own eyes; I will fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to my flesh, and strength to my bones.”
Based on: Exodus 23:25-26: “So I shall serve the Lord my God, and He will bless my bread and my water. And He will take sickness away from my midst. I shall not suffer miscarriage or be barren; He will fulfill the number of my days.”
Psalm 103:1-5: “Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His
holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives
all my iniquities, who heals all my diseases, who redeems my life from
destruction, who crowns me with loving-kindness and tender mercies, who
satisfies my mouth with good things, so that my youth is renewed like the eagle’s.”
Psalm 71:14-18: “But I will hope continually, and will praise You yet more and
more. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness and Your salvation all the day, for
I do not know their limits. I will go in the strength of the Lord God; I will make
mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only. O God, You have taught me from my
youth; and to this day I declare Your wondrous works. Now also, even if I become
old and greyheaded, O God, do not forsake me, until I declare Your strength to this
generation, Your power to everyone who is to come.”
Proverbs 3:21-26: “Let them not depart from my eyes – let me keep sound wisdom
and discretion; so they will be life to my soul, and grace to my neck. Then I will
walk safely in my way. And my foot will not stumble. When I lie down, I will not
be afraid; yes, I will lie down, and my sleep shall be sweet. I will not be afraid of
sudden terror, nor of trouble from the wicked, when it comes; for the Lord will be
my confidence, and will keep my foot from being caught.”
Philippians 4:13: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Based on:Psalm 92:12-15 (NIV): “I, who am righteous, will flourish like a
palm tree, I will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the Lord, I
will flourish in the courts of our God. I will still bear fruit in old age; I will stay
fresh and green, proclaiming, ‘The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no
unrighteousness in him.”
Based on:2 Corinthians 12:9-10: “God’s grace is sufficient for me; God’s
strength is made perfect in my weakness, so when I am weak, then I am
strong.”
Based on:Proverbs 4:20: “I Give attention your words; I incline my ear to your
sayings. I will not let them depart from my eyes; I will keep them in the midst of
my heart. For they are life to me who has found them, and health to all my flesh.”
Isaiah 40:28-31: “Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God,
the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. There is
no searching of his understanding.
He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases
strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but
Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with
wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”
RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24: “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify me
completely; and may my whole spirit, soul and body be preserved blameless at the
coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls us is faithful, who also will do it.”
Colossians 1:9-14: “This is my prayer: ‘that I may be filled with the knowledge of
His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that I may have a walk worthy
of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in
the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious
power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father, who
has qualified me to be a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He
has delivered me from the domain of darkness and translated me into the kingdom
of the Son of His love, in whom I have redemption through His blood, the
forgiveness of sins.’”
Psalm 19:12-14: “Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults.
Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion
over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgression.
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your
sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.”
Philippians 1:9-11: “And this I pray, that my love may abound still more and
more in knowledge and all discernment, that I may approve the things that are
excellent, that I may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ, being
filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and
praise of God.”
ISRAEL
Romans 1:16: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.”
Exodus 23:20-28: "Behold, I send an Angel before you (Israel) to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. Beware of Him and obey His voice; do not provoke Him, for He will not pardon your transgressions; for My name is in Him. But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries. "I will send My fear before you, I will cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. And I will send hornets before you, which shall drive out the nations from before you."
Romans 10:1: “My heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved.”
Jeremiah 31:33-34: ”But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
Ezekiel 36:24-28: “For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of
all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water
on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from
all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will
take the heart of stone out of your flesh, and give you a heart of flesh. I will put
My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My
judgments and do them. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your
fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.”
Based on: ZECHARIAH 12:10: “And the Lord will pour on the house of David and on
the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will
look on Him whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for
his only son”
Romans 11:26-27: “And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer
will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; for this is My
covenant with them, when I take away their sins.””
Psalm 17:7-9: “Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You
who save those who trust in You from those who rise up against them. Keep Israel
as the apple of Your eye; hide them under the shadow of Your wings, from the
wicked who oppress them, from their deadly enemies who surround them.”
Psalm 33:8-12: “Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world
stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood
fast. The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of
the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His
heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the
people whom he has chosen for His own inheritance.”

as a shepherd keeps his flock.”

them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up.”
1 Samuel 12:22: “For the Lord will not forsake His people for His great name's
sake, because it has pleased the Lord to make Israel His people.”
GUIDANCE
Based on: John 14:26:"But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in His name, He will teach me all things, and bring to my remembrance all things that You said to us.”
Based on: Psalm 27:8-11: “When You said, "Seek My face," My heart said to You, "Your face, Lord, I will seek." Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then You, Lord will take care of me. Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.”
Based on: Proverbs 3:5-6: “I will trust in the Lord with all my heart, and lean not
on my own understanding; in all my ways I acknowledge Him, and He shall direct
my paths.”
PROVISION
Based on: Deuteronomy 28:2-8, 11-12: “And all these blessings shall come upon me and overtake me, because I obey the voice of the Lord my God: Blessed shall I be in the city, and blessed shall I be in the country. Blessed shall be the fruit of my body, the produce of my ground and the increase of my herds, the increase of my cattle and the offspring of my flocks. Blessed shall be my basket and my kneading bowl. Blessed shall I be when I come in, and blessed shall I be when I go out. "The Lord will cause my enemies who rise against me to be defeated before my face; they shall come out against me one way and flee before me seven ways. The Lord will command the blessing on me in my storehouses and in all to which I set my hand…if I keep the commandments of the Lord my God and walk in His ways. And the Lord will grant me plenty of goods, in the fruit of my body, in the increase of my livestock, and in the produce of my ground. The Lord will open to me His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to my land in its season, and to bless all the work of my hand. I shall lend to many, but I shall not borrow.“
2 Corinthians 9:10-11: “Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed I have sown and increase the fruits of my righteousness, while I am enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.”
Based on: Proverbs 3:9-10: “I will honour the Lord with my possessions, and with
the firstfruits of all my increase; so my barns will be filled with plenty, and my
vats will overflow with new wine.”
Based on: Matthew 6:31-34: “Therefore I will not worry, saying, ‘What shall we
eat?, or ‘What shall we drink?’ or What shall we wear?’ For after all these things
the Gentiles seek. For my heavenly Father knows that I need all these things. But
I will seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things
shall be added to me. Therefore I will not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow
will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”
2 Corinthians 9:8: “And God is able to make all grace abound toward me, that I,
always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”
Philippians 4:19: “And my God shall supply all my need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
TESTING AND TRIAL
1 Peter 1:3-9: ”Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this I greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, I have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of my faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honour, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen I love. Though now I do not see Him, yet believing, I rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of my faith--the salvation of my soul.”
BASED ON: James 1:2-4: “I count it all joy when I fall into various trials, knowing
that the testing of my faith produces patience. But I let patience have its perfect
work, that I may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.”
2 Timothy 2:11-12: “If we died with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we
endure, we shall also reign with Him.”
James 4:7: “Therefore I submit to God. I resist the devil, and he will flee from
me.”
1Corinthians 15:57-58: “But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, we are steadfast,
immoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that our labour
is not in vain in the Lord.”

Sermon notes
5 February 2010
FULFILLING G-D’S WILL
Genesis 12:1-4: “Now the Lord had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, from your family and from your father's house, to a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed." So Abram departed as the Lord had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.”
1) G-D HAS A WILL IN HEAVEN THAT HE WANTS FULFILLED ON EARTH
- The Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:9-10 says: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
2) G-D HAS AN EXPECTATION OF US TO OBEY HIS WILL
- We see this in Deuteronomy 27:9-10: “Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, spoke to all Israel, saying, "Take heed and listen, O Israel: This day you have become the people of the Lord your God. 10 Therefore you shall obey the voice of the Lord your God”
The example of Abraham
- Abraham always obeyed G-D without hesitation - We see this in Genesis 12:1-4; Abraham obeyed G-D even though his future was uncertain
- Hebrews 11:8-9: “By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country”
- Let’s look at G-D’S testing of Abraham to sacrifice Isaac - In Genesis 22:1-3 we read: “God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am." Then He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering"” So Abraham rose early in the morning and took Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.
- Abraham understood that his line of descendants would go through Isaac
- He believed that G-D would fulfill His word regarding Isaac, even if it required that G-D would need to raise Isaac from the dead – Abraham believed G-D’S covenant promise
- Hebrews 11:17-19 - “By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, of whom it was said, “In Isaac your seed shall be called,” concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead, from which he also received him in a figurative sense.”
Because of Abraham’s obedience, G-D promised him that in his seed all the nations of the Earth would be blessed - Genesis 22:15-18: “Then the Angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, and said: "By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son -- blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice."”
The example of Saul
- Acts 9:3-6: “As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?" And he said, "Who are You, Lord?" Then the Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads." So he, trembling and astonished, said, "Lord, what do You want me to do?"”
- Like Abraham, Paul walked in obedience to his calling without hesitation
The example of Yeshua
- John 4:34: “Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.”
- Matthew 26:39: “He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."”
3) YESHUA’S WILL FOR US IS THAT WE DO THE FATHER’S WILL
- Matthew 12:50: “For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother."
- Matthew 7:21: “Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.”
4) WE HAVE BEEN CALLED TO DO G-D’S WILL
- John 15:16 - Yeshua Himself declared: “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit”
- We clearly see from this scripture that not only did Yeshua choose us, He appointed us to go and bear much fruit for His Father’s Kingdom
5) WHAT IS THE FATHER’S WILL FOR US?
- ISAIAH 61:1-3: "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion. To give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified."
- G-D’S will is that we:
- Preach good tidings to the poor
- Heal the broken hearted
- Proclaim liberty to the captives (those who are captive to sin and who need salvation)
- Open the prison to those who are bound by the Devil
- Proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our G-D
- G-D’S will for you is for you to allow Him to build His Kingdom through you, show His love through you, bring hope to a world in darkness through you, and, most importantly, spread the Gospel through you; which is why Yeshua charged the church with the ‘Great Commission’
6) THE EXAMPLE OF THE TWO GREATEST JEWISH BIBLICAL FIGURES WHO DID G-D’S WILL
- Moses and David.
- Each one of them, at the time they were called, was an ‘ordinary’ person doing ‘ordinary’ work. Both Moses and David were shepherds
- As each one responded to G-D’S calling, he was given a mandate from G-D for His will to be done and was then anointed for this; they then went in obedience to G-D and His will
- G-D’S will was to use Moses to bring the children of Israel from slavery to freedom
- G-D’S will was to use David, a man after His own heart, to be king of Israel
- G-D’S will was to use the disciples to spread the gospel; some of them even wrote the bible
7) WHAT IF ABRAHAM, DAVID, PAUL AND THE DISCIPLES HAD NOT FULFILLED G-D’S WILL?
- Perhaps there would be: No covenants? No Torah? No spreading of the Gospel? No bible? No salvation? No nation of Israel? No Messiah? Would we be here?
In Matthew 26:39 we read Yeshua saying: “"O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."”
- WHAT IF YESHUA WOULD HAVE SAID: ‘I would love to do your will but it’s too hard for me; there are too many obstacles; it’s just too much of a sacrifice. In any case do I really care about the eternal future of mankind; are they really worth it?’ – ARE WE?
- Do you really care about the eternal future of your family and friends?
- Do you really care about the eternal future of your neighbour and the petrol attendant?
- Do you really care about the salvation of the Jewish people?
War in Israel is imminent – it will happen. We know that, with the arsenal the Arab nations have amassed, not only can they inflict serious damage on Israel – and we know that Israel will probably win out in the end - but injuries, even deaths will occur
The bottom line is that if Israelis (or anyone for that matter) dies without Yeshua, it will be a tragedyI want to read a statement made by Malcolm Hedding of the ICEJ: “We (the ICEJ) continue to defend Israel all over the world even as the international community is turning more and more against them. Israel is now moving into a period of isolation with a cold wind blowing from the USA and anti-Semitism rising everywhere in Europe. All this will leave Israel against the wall and with only one option left; Jesus of Nazereth!”
- Are you praying for the salvation of Jewish people – especially those in Israel?
- Are YOU provoking Jewish people you know to jealousy?
Only you know how far you are prepared to go to fulfill G-D’S will for you; no matter the cost
- Matthew 18:12-14: “"What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying? And if he should find it, assuredly, I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.””
- G-D’S will is that no one should perish but that all should have everlasting life; which is why we read in John 3:16-17: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
Isaiah 61:1-2: "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God
- Sometimes preachers use this scripture and then ask the congregation to repeat it after them with the emphasis on: “TheSpirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me…”
- Are you:
- Preaching good tidings to the poor?
- Healing the broken hearted?
- Proclaiming liberty to the captives? (those who are captive to sin)
- Opening the prison to those who are bound by the Devil?
- Proclaiming the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our G-D?
- Praying for Israel and the ‘Peace of Jerusalem’?
I END WITH THIS
- In Matthew 7:21-23, Yeshua says: "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'
- Why did Yeshua say that He would declare to them “'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'”
- They never fulfilled the will of the Father
ARE YOU FULFILLING THE FATHER’S WILL?
