My Experience With The Peace That Only Jesus Can Give

Because I have experience with some not so good situations, I feel there is a need to help those people who might desperately need some mental and/or emotional rescue. I am passing along the peace that only Jesus can give because I know what it"s like to suffer. The peace that only Jesus can give is priceless.

"I was glad when they said to me: 'Come to the house of God.' Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact. Where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, to the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of GOD. For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David. PRAY FOR PEACE OF JERUSALEM; prosper that love thee.
Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. BECAUSE OF MY BROTHERS AND FRIENDS, say: PEACE IS IN IT. BECAUSE OF THE HOUSE OF GOD, seek thy good "(Psalm 122. 1-9).

We would like to share our love for Israel, a love that seems ever born and raised with us. The Lord has prospered us so much ,as he says He would, he granted us. For the grace we visit in 2001 to the Holy Land. Recalling that prosperity is not material wealth, but the abundance of spiritual grace that grants us the mercy to be happy in any circumstance. Watching the film on the story of King David and seeing how he conquered the area that would become the future city of Jerusalem, our love was awakened again because it was asleep. Our churches, mostly lacks the observance of this biblical commandment, because they think it is things from "old testament"! Jesus, as He Himself says did not come to abolish the Law but fulfill there! Then we must pray for Jerusalem as the Old Testament says!

"Stand on and worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth!”

Ezekiel is the third prophet of God in order of importance. The first is Isaiah, Jeremiah the second and fourth Daniel. Ezekiel means God is strength. In chapter 2 of Ezekiel he makes an overview of what Israel was in its time; shows us that God has to be our strength, as we have greater teaching the consequences of idolatry, which are unpredictable. Ezekiel was also taken to Babylon. God hates idolatry, because we cut relations with God by placing an image in His place. When we are 100% united with God we are strengthened. When the Jews were inclined to idolatry God departs from them. It happened with the Israeli people at that time, when Nebuchadnezzar captured all talented Jews and brought them to Babylon and from there came the slag to Israel. Ezekiel also was taken because he was talented.

Originally God chose Israel to be His chosen people, but His people rebelled against Him time and again. The door to salvation was open to the Gentiles. Throughout the history of 6,000 years, God kept His promise and never completely rejected the Israelites. 70 years after Jesus' death, Israel did not exist at all and the nation became a nation once again in 1948 after the Second World War. History shows that the great empires that once flourished were lost for ever, never to revive again, the Babylonian, Persian, Greek and Islamic empires were history. The chosen people of Israel existed for 6000 years, and 4000 years of existence later, they were scattered around the world, and Israel did not exist for nearly 2000 years. Now Israel is slowly getting together again in this century.
God blessed Abraham, the ancestor of David, His chosen king. In Abraham, all who believe in the God of Abraham would be chosen and saved. Jesus Christ came from the line of David.

ISRAEL: SEVEN SPECIES HONEY

 

Honey from dates

Before the Israelites entered the Promised Land of Israel, God told Moses to warn the Israelites to keep the commandments of the Lord God for He was bringing them into a good land with food ready to sustain them during the drought. Seven species were mentioned and they were wheat, barley, vines, figs, pomegranates, olive and honey. If they disobeyed God and worshiped other gods, they would surely perish.

Deuteronomy 8:6-11:

• Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
• For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills.
• A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive and honey;
• A land where thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; ..
• When thou has eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
• Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day.

From the land of Egypt where the Israelies were in servitude, God brought them to a land of seven species of food which would make them survive in drought. However, they must not forget to keep the commandments of the Lord, or they perish.
