well church grab your bibles tonight and
turn to the book of isaiah chapter 11
tonight isaiah chapter 11
and
we will begin to get into 11. it's an
awesome chapter in fact the first nine
verses are off the charts you're going
to love this i say you're going to love
this we're we're going to get to verse 1
tonight chapter 11 verse 1. we'll get to
verse 1 tonight we'll see how far we get
but um you are going to be excited i
think in the weeks to come because
there's a very very wonderful
new testament answer for
a question that comes up in isaiah
chapter 11
and we're going to be looking into it
now
if you're there go ahead and and park
your finger there in the bible right
there isaiah chapter 11 and from this
point we're going to be launching out
into other areas tonight but it's very
very um important for you to understand
as we've been sharing that the book of
isaiah isaiah's ministry will deal with
the nation's sins and the coming
judgment and discipline of god
and then it's almost
as though isaiah is transported
meaning
what has already been such a cycle of
this book in the 10th chapter you saw
and heard isaiah
speaking about the judgment coming from
the assyrian empire
against god's people yes god engineers
pagan
godless
nations to punish his nations or his
people who call him by name but refuse
him by action when they're in
disobedience the bible says god sends
the enemy of his nation israel to come
and judge them it's it's as though god
uses and he does use them as a rod of
punishment
and so the assyrian empire you remember
last time was in fact that tool to come
but we saw also the prophetic warning
isaiah says but
the king of assyria will go too far
in his
destruction of israel
and he'll cross the line and god will
then deal with him
as a disciplinary tool
god uses him even though god uses the
tool
the tool was wicked in the heart
so the sovereignty of god is intact
and yet the rebellion or the will of man
is responsible
for their actions
and so we looked last time at a message
entitled god to the rescue and we need
to look at the last two verses to set up
where we're going actually look at
chapter 10 verse 20 for a second it says
and it shall come to pass in that day
chapter 10 that the remnant of israel
you ought to circle that
and such as have escaped of the house of
jacob will never again depend on him who
defeated them
they will never be subject to captivity
again but will depend on the lord the
holy one of israel
and man i'm looking at that name in the
bible today with more appreciation than
ever
circle it in your bibles 3 000 year old
book opened on your lap
and god says i'm the holy one of israel
in truth the remnant will return the
remnant of jacob to the mighty god this
is verse 21 is an announcement in
chapter 10 that there's going to be a
day coming when god's people will come
back to him in faith just though it's a
small number a remnant they're going to
come back someday for though your people
o israel
be as the sand of the sea a remnant of
them will return the destruction decreed
shall overflow with righteousness for
the lord god of hosts the god of armies
the lord god of hosts is the lord god of
armies heaven's armies
will make a determined end in the midst
of all the land look at chapter 10 verse
33
behold
the lord the lord of hosts will lop off
the bow with terror
those of high stature will be hewn down
he's talking about the assyrian
leader and the assyria nation and the
haughty will be humbled god hates pride
people
he hates it we'll not tolerate it verse
34
he will cut down the thickets of the
forest with iron and lebanon will fall
by the mighty one
now this is amazing
god is saying as we ended that chapter
in israel's rebellion there's a remnant
of people that i'll bring back
and i'll preserve
i wonder if god is saying that to
america today the nation's going to be
disciplined it's going to be judged for
its godliness godlessness but in the
midst of it all don't lose heart
there'll be a remnant of people that
i'll preserve i want you know god could
say that to us if he wanted to
maybe he is saying it i don't know
but this is a wonderful promise because
now we go from verse 34 to this little
glimmer of hope to this explosion
that
the the prophet in chapter 11 announces
that there's a time where the messiah
will come
and that long haul that
far away prophecy will be fulfilled
and he says this look at verse 1 there
shall come forth a rod from the stem of
jesse and a branch shall grow out of his
roots and we need to stop right there
because this is vitally important in
your notes in the margins of your bible
write down verse 1 the promise of the
coming messiah
the promise of the coming of jesus
christ you can write that down
right there in your bible
god says i'm going to bring back a
remnant
you know
you should know right that there are
several symbols of the nation of israel
in the bible
uh there are some several symbols of the
nation of israel uh recognized in the
world one of them by the way you don't
have to go very far is in the foyer
there is a seven
lampstand menorah in the foyer
here at the church
where does that come from well being
christians we would immediately say from
the book of revelation and that's good
you're right but that's not its origin
the origin of the seven lamp stands is
mentioned with moses
in the
making of the the worship implements and
god said make this seven lampstand
so it appears in
the old testament and it's answered in
the new
it's a place of fellowship and if you go
to israel today it's the symbol of the
nation of israel at the knesset at its
seat of government the menorah in fact
that's an exact replica made by the
actual
man who engineered the one at the
knesset
very unique
but what else comes to your mind
um
how about uh grapevine perhaps right
grapevine perhaps most most famous
though is what
yeah that's right
fig tree
a fig tree
now we live in southern california do
you guys have this problem uh at my
house uh i have to pull up little fig
trees that are growing have you noticed
that they blow in the wind the seed
lands and you have a fig tree if you
don't know what you're looking for then
you don't know what you're looking for
but if you know what a fig tree looks
like it starts out with a couple of
leaves like the size of your thumbnail
and i got to pull them up because if you
don't pull them up they'll take over and
we have we had a fig tree in our
backyard years ago and i cut it down
i cut it down
and here's what i did i cut it down
right i
i mean i didn't tear it out i just cut
it down
i cut it down at the ground and guess
what happens about every two months
it comes back
so you know what i did i poisoned it
oh stop it you tree hugger
i i cut it down cut it locked it off and
poisoned it guess what happened
came back
got a drill drilled down into it put
gasoline on it
guess what happened
it's great it's growing right now still
growing
and god says my nation is like a fig
tree jesus said keep your eye on the fig
in the last days
it never never goes away it looks like
it's gone it comes back
israel's like that
israel is like that it gets lopped off
it keeps coming back oh it drives it
drives the arab world crazy
you cut it off comes back you attack it
comes back
you drive the people out to the ends of
the world they come back
as we look at this it's a promise that
god says why does israel keep coming
back how is it they keep surviving
because god has a plan
and in isaiah chapter 11 god is
announcing this is one of the great
reasons why he's going to make sure his
plan
is executed because the messiah must
come back to the nation of israel listen
ayatollah khomeini
iran
hezbollah hamas
boko haram
al-qaeda
isis
uh help me out here
turkey
you name it
they're going to fail
they're just wasting bullets they're
wasting money
seriously
the bible says that no nation is going
to abolish the nation of israel and
especially amos chapter 9 says once
israel becomes a nation for the last and
final time its second time as a nation
this is significant once it's a nation a
second time it will never be again
rooted up out of its land
there'll always be a remnant ever since
may 14th 1948. listen i know in the news
and you'll see some news here in a
moment that the threat of iran nuking
israel is a very real thing it ain't
going to happen
it's not going to happen they may
attempt it but it's not going to work
there'll always be a remnant
left
and god says now that they're back
they're never going anywhere
and i don't know how that sits with you
but i i hope that you just choose to be
on god's side i was in an event
yesterday and there was a song saying
about god being on our side and i have
an issue with that song by the way it's
a very famous song you probably love it
you probably have it on your itunes or
something but it's a great christian
song but it's about you know god honor
god's on our side
no he's not
you better read your bible carefully god
is nev god's on no one's side
god's on no one's side listen he says
you better be on my side
there's only one one
unique
variation to that fact
it's israel
god says
i'm on their side
has he been on their side even when they
were not on his side yep even when they
got disciplined even when they were cut
down at the ground
god said of them they'll keep growing
back
why because he says i have a plan
you see listen god is not on israel's
side because they're sweet
god is on israel's side because god
first had a plan
and that's significant
write this down in your notes if you
would how sure we can be about this
because you might yes that's that's
ridiculous
well romans chapter 12 verse 4 says for
whatever things were written before were
written for our learning that's paul
talking about the old testament
whatever things were written beforehand
they were written for us to learn from
how come why that we through the
patience and comfort of the what
scriptures might have hope when you read
the bible christian this should build
hope
that's what paul said to the church at
rome
in 1st chronicles 12 32 the bible says
this regarding the sons of ishikar one
of the tribes of israel listen to this i
want to be like this by the way i
believe that i'm supposed to be like
this i believe as a christian i'm
supposed to live like this and
especially as a pastor i believe it's
mandated upon me to be like this in
first chronicles 12 32 it says the sons
of ishakar who had understanding of the
times knew what israel what to do
isn't that awesome statement
that that verse is announcing
the sons of ishikar they had a pulse on
their culture
they knew what was going on and by
knowing what was happening they knew how
to lead their tribe in israel that's a
good word ladies and gentlemen
we have a tendency to put our head in
the sand and we want to get run over
that way
god wants us to be knowing and seeing
everything in this world biblically
through the eyes of the bible through
the lens of the bible
which brings us to this as a christian
you and i are to be thinking biblically
at all times while we're living in a
secular world
i'm going somewhere with this hang on
and what that means is as a christian is
that you and i
because we live in this fallen world we
are able through this bible church to
see things differently than anybody else
and i want you to hear this the more you
and i know this book the more we'll know
the times in which we live in
you say jack are you crazy how can you
read an ancient ancient book and know
about the future because this book is
alive
this book is not just a book this book
is the word of god and listen it has
been can i say it this way i mean this
reverently
this whole show as it were
has been rigged to this book
in other words
there ain't nothing going to happen
without god knowing about it good bad or
ugly god knows
it's all written down
and as we read and study the bible the
bible allows us to have supernatural
viewing into the culture in which you
and i live in
so this is an amazing thing listen
now there may be exceptions i know that
this is a
a very sharp group of people i'm not
saying that to be funny it's true we
have rocket scientists in this place we
have uh people from incredible walks of
backgrounds we've got harvard grads
we've got stanford university grads here
we got
doctors and we've got we've got
bozos here with pink shirts on
um
having said that listen it doesn't
matter what kind of uh
you know
alphabets or
labels you have behind your name that
makes you wise
now you may have done a lot of time in
school and you may be really bright
but that's knowledge and i'm not
knocking knowledge
but there's a lot of people today that
put a lot of stress and knowledge
and they know not god
they know a lot of stuff but they don't
know the one who made all that stuff
and to know him
is to have wisdom
uh just because you have knowledge
doesn't mean you have wisdom you can be
as smart as einstein and walk through a
plate glass door because you weren't
looking around
you need to open up your eyes be wise
and unlock the door before you try to
walk through it
wisdom is the application of knowledge
it's the execution of knowing what you
know for good
and as christians you and i in this
world god's prophetic word like the book
of isaiah is giving us a window in the
world in which you and i live in that's
why it's amazing we cannot pick up this
book
and not
expect it to deal with our lives today
i was impressed two times today it came
to my mind two times today after lisa
and i read our one year bible together
today uh two situations that i had no
idea that i would be inserted into today
um
i was able to use that that daily bible
reading for today's challenge
isn't that a wonderful new and one one
pastor because it was a it was a
conference meeting over some issue and
i was it's so funny because they they
called and asked for my advice
really lisa hey listen there are some
people calling
asking for my i'm kidding i'm kidding
i'm joking
i'm kidding
and
i i was able to use this morning's daily
bible reading
and the funny thing was oh that's a good
idea the guy said
it wasn't my idea
do you see what i'm saying
as a christian we know listen we see the
world through the bible so we see what's
happening in the world around us
how can we be so sure
because god's word will never fail and
as we get into chapter 11 it's about the
coming of the messiah listen he is
coming
and the bible lays out prerequisites to
his coming
that we look in our culture and we begin
to see
that certain things are in alignment
or setting up
so look with me in verse one
the message is entitled the spirit of
god at work and we're gonna be looking
at this for the next several weeks the
spirit of god
at work
the holy spirit i'm speaking of course
but we're looking at verse 1 and this is
the restoration of our god our
restoration god it's what he does
there shall come forth mark that down
underline it in your bibles church right
now there shall come forth that's a
prophetic statement by god god is saying
open your eyes pay attention this is my
word i'm speaking it this is what's
going to happen so if you're listen if
you're a doubter if you're a skeptic in
the house you ought to write that down
god's word says that he knows the future
god is saying this is going to happen so
let's say you don't believe in god but
just write that down consider this
that he says this shall come forth this
is going to happen
absolutely guaranteed it's a bold clear
certain prophecy that this is going to
happen no doubt about it
and i love the boldness of the bible do
you
the boldness this will be
how sure can we
rest on god's word god says this and
it's going to happen christians listen
carefully please
the days in the age in which we live in
you better make sure as i've been
hounding and hounding on you to make
sure that you understand
doctrines of the bible
last wednesday night after a service
someone said to me pastor i take issue a
little bit with what you're saying you
were saying that if america doesn't
repent that that our nation could be
judged and i said absolutely true he
goes oh that's not going to happen
i go why is that well because we're a
christian nation he said
i said listen let's let's assume for a
moment let's assume for a moment you're
correct according to the bible if we are
a christian nation
then it's guaranteed that we'll be
judged by the lord
dr leonard ravenhill said years ago and
i think billy graham echoed it he said
that
if god doesn't if god does not judge
america for its sin he's gonna have to
apologize to sodom and gomorrah
and dr ravenhill wrote in one of his
books just he said just remember this
sodom had no bible and they were judged
they didn't know what was going on
god disciplined them what i'm saying is
this
a christian nation does not escape the
national judgment in that country for
which it lives in
christians have to suffer under
national judgments
and that should not surprise you
have you ever heard of a guy by the name
of daniel for example have you ever
heard of jeremiah
have you ever heard of these have you
ever heard of isaiah the book we're in
listen these prophets were destroyed or
imprisoned or brutalized
by
the nation that captured them
now listen that that shouldn't scare you
it should make you pray for your nation
it should make you turn out to prayer
meetings ladies and gentlemen
we should be praying for this nation
listen i got i'm thinking i'm going to
do this some
sunday but to far in advance say for
example
on sunday the 19th we are going to have
a sunday morning prayer service no bible
study no worship just on our face prayer
meeting you know who's gonna you know
who's gonna show up
about five people like who just clapped
right now
listen we're gonna i have to do this
someday i've got to do it just to take
just to take a health exam of the body
because you know what charles spurgeon
said your church is only as healthy as
its prayer meetings
it's time to pray it's time to start
fasting it's time to see god
but you know what far too many people
are not they don't think it's bad enough
yet
and we need to pray
we need to see god
why because number one if our god was a
fatalistic doomsday god then why pray
but he's not
he's a god who restores
and i pray the rapture happens tonight
wouldn't that be nice but what if it
doesn't well if it doesn't you better
get ready
you better get ready
he says there shall come forth and
notice what he says a rod circle that in
your bibles everybody a rod that word is
a
little humble twig
a little thing
will come forth
from the stem the word stem means that
which has been lopped off at the dirt
the fig tree being cut off at the dirt
here's a prophecy a little tiny
sign of life is gonna come out of the
stump
sound familiar if you have a fig tree
and you're trying to kill it
a rod capital r in your bible
reference to deity
deity will arise from the stem of jesse
who's jesse
king david's dad
from the dna from the bloodline of jesse
of david
so listen skeptic in the house
three thousand year old prophecy says
someone really famous some i should say
someone's gonna be very famous
who is not yet in the prophecy who's
going to come from the line of david a
son of jesse
these are real bonafide historical
figures in history
david jesse
from them will come someone who is not
only very or will be very famous
but what else he's prophetically
announced
there shall come forth
secondly
and a branch
shall grow out of his roots the word
branch here means a fresh shoot the word
technically means very
green very very new
life alive it will be seen
it will be green it will be fresh this
branch again capital b speaking of deity
shall grow out of his roots the word
root here is source or ancient source of
beginnings
so from god's ancient promise
someone will come who's related to jesse
who was the father of david the dna of
the rod will have david's blood in him
and i'm asking the skeptic in the house
or if you're watching right now online
who in the world could this possibly fit
in all of humanity
only one person if you like it or not no
one else fits
and from him this branch shall grow out
of his roots the fact of the matter that
whoever he is he has ancient ancient
origins
now write in the margins of your bible
write it down you're not going to see it
on the screen because it just popped
into my head
micah chapter 5 verse 2
o bethlehem epaphretha though thou be
little among all the other little
villages of judah yet out of you
shall come forth to me
the one whose goings forth have been
from of old from everlasting whoever is
born in bethlehem comes from god and
goes back to god and that one will be
eternal never having a beginning never
having an ending
hmm bethlehem
was anyone ever born in bethlehem
who had a a scandalous entrance into the
world
and
was rumored about to be eternal
jesus
in romans chapter 1 verse 3 and 4 romans
1 3 and 4.
today i heard on the news that
senator ted cruz has got dual
citizenship and
canadian and americans so now he has to
renounce his canadian citizenship to run
for president it's no big deal
he has an american
documentation to to run for president
cuban-born father
american-born mother
he was born in canada but he's an
american dual citizenship
uh
but he has to but he had to renounce his
canadian citizenship so i mean that's i
guess that's fine if you want to run for
president
um you ever think about this when i when
i heard that today i thought you know
what isn't that amazing aren't you
grateful to god that jesus christ the
son of god has dual citizenship
see what do you mean
he's eternal from heaven
but he but he put himself in the body of
a human being
for us he associated with us
listen to romans 1 3
concerning his son jesus christ our lord
who number one was born of the seed of
david according to the flesh
isn't that neat
if you draw blood if you're a
phlebotomist
and you draw blood
and you take the blood and you put it
into a
blood analyzing machine and it begins to
break down the blood based upon what you
want to know of it can you imagine
putting the blood of jesus you put some
bring some blood out of his veins and
you put it in the machine and it begins
to spit out you know his his plasma
level is hemoglobin his his white cell
count his
hematocrit and all this stuff and then
all of a sudden
[Applause]
it's got this god factor on it
it's
it spits out lord
our lord who was born of the seed of
david according to the flesh verse 4 and
declared to be the son of god with power
according to the spirit that's the holy
spirit the spirit of holiness
by here's the qualifier the resurrection
from the dead
jesus christ
the very verse here that announces in
chapter 11 verse 1 is speaking about one
who will come from the line of david
he's eternal and the bible tells us that
this very eternal one is going to die
on the cross and be resurrected from the
dead what an awesome statement that is
and just
so you don't think we're making this up
revelation 5 5 says but one of the
elders said to me remember john's crying
he's all messed up because he sees the
world sold under satan's power he's
weeping he's crying but one of the
elders said to me this is john's vision
in heaven do not weep for behold the
lion of the tribe of
judah the root of who
david has prevailed to open the scroll
and to loose its seven seals jesus
christ is the promised messiah in the
bible and
isaiah 11 1 is write it down in your
margins speaking about jesus christ
clearly
god's spirit at work now i want to pause
for a moment and take a rather unique
turn
and we'll just stay on this for the rest
of the evening
you might say to me or ask me
why are you such a big fan
and supporter of israel
is it political politics has nothing to
do with it i don't agree with israel's
politics
i don't even like their form of
government
i could care less
the reason why i
am a supporter of israel is because god
said in genesis chapter 12
you better be good to the descendants of
abraham
so there you go
jesus
thought enough of the nation of israel
to have been born there
number two
isn't it bizarro
isn't it amazing that the messiah of the
universe the creator of the world
god himself came to this world
as a jew why did why that why did he do
that
he could have picked any other ethnic
group
that's important to me
look if he would have come as a peruvian
then i would have been all you know all
right my listen i'm not jewish i'm a
gentile through and through but my god's
jewish my god's a jew
think of that isn't that funny
he's the lord jesus christ
born in bethlehem from the line of david
but here's the deal
the the main reason in my time zone
where i live is the fact that god's
promises his word will never fail and i
am not about i am not about to pick the
losing side and be on that losing side
i think you would you'd agree with me if
you knew a winning side in advance
wouldn't you pick the winning side well
kind of a person who knows the outcome
of the horse race puts all their money
on the horse that loses if you already
know the outcome what are you crazy
god says i am going to revisit israel in
the last days they're going to be hated
by the nations of the world they're
going to be outcast by the world but i'm
going to set it up because i'm coming
back to the world and i'm going to land
in israel that's my that's my runway
israel
no i'm not asking you to agree with me i
could care less
i'm asking you though to read the bible
and believe it
because there's such a big moving
uh
judgment these days by people coercing
other people to despise israel
you better watch out
you better watch out because listen god
says don't you mess with the apple of my
eye
you mess with israel he says you're
poking me in the eye can you imagine
poking god in the eye
and there's going to come a time when
god says that's enough poking me in the
eye
how sure can we be about this now turn
in your bibles to ezekiel 37 if you
would
ezekiel 37
and lord i'm going to ask you to stop
the clock right now worked for joshua
i'm asking you to stop the clock right
ezekiel 37
just follow along with me
no i don't need you guys to really stop
the clock
because we'll never get out of here so
just make sure it's still
i appreciate the help but that was
i wanted it more of the lord thing you
know but
ezekiel 37 1 this is god's word prophet
ezekiel written
2006
100 years ago
2600 years ago
the hand of the lord came upon me says
ezekiel and brought me out in the spirit
of the lord and set me down in the midst
of the valley
so ezekiel now is supernaturally
in a
prophetic revelation this is a
trance or a vision
and it was full of bones verse two then
he caused me to pass by them all around
and behold there were very many in the
open valley and indeed they were very
dry
and he said to me son of man
can these bones live
so i answered
oh lord god you know
and again he said to me prophesy to
these bones and say to them o dry bones
hear the word of the lord
for thus so imagine a valley full of
skeletons all disjointed
thus says the lord god to these bones
surely i will cause breath to enter into
you
and you shall live okay that's a
prophetic statement i will put sin you
on you and bring flesh upon you and
cover you with skin and put breath in
you and you shall live
then you shall know that i am the lord
circle that then you shall know that i
am the lord whatever god's going to do
the outcome is going to be that whoever
he's talking about the bones
will assemble with skin and soon you're
going to hear about it standing up
and why here's the point people
whoever we're talking about whatever
we're talking about
it's going to know the lord
who says bible says
verse 7
so i prophesied as i was commanded and
as i prophesied there was a noise
and suddenly a rattling
yikes
and the bones came together bone to bone
indeed as i looked the sinews and the
flesh came upon them and the skin
covered them over and there was no
breath in them
also he said to me prophesy to the
breath prophesy son of man and say to
the breath thus says the lord god come
from the four winds
listen any marines in here any marines
in here the marines are called upon to
respond from the four
corners of the earth
prophesy to the four winds
o breath and breathe on the slain that
they may live
so i prophesied as he commanded me and
breath came into them and they lived and
stood up on their feet an exceedingly
great army then he said to me son of man
these bones are the whole house of who
say it again what
who says god says bible says 2600 year
old prophecy you're reading it right now
god says
they're dead i'm going to reassemble
them i'm going to put breath into them
they're going to they're going to be
standing there breathing who is this he
says it's the house of israel they
indeed say our bones are dry our hope is
lost we are ourselves cut off that's the
word at the base ground ground down to
the ground nothing left
my people i will open your graves and
cause you to come up from your graves
and bring you into the land of
israel tell that to your friends
tell that to the next person that
denounces israel
verse 3 13 then you shall know that i am
the
lord wow think of it church before i
keep reading anymore is israel back in
their land
they've got skin on them they've got
muscle
they're in their borders
they're back
here's the thing there's no breath in
them yet
they don't believe you go to israel
right now they don't believe
they'll call themselves jews and then
they'll tell you they don't believe in
god
it's the strangest thing you've ever
seen
then
you shall know that i am the lord when i
open up your graves o my people and
brought you up from your graves i will
put my spirit in you and you shall live
that's not happened yet and i will place
you in your own land that has happened
and it's happening now then you shall
know that i am the lord i have spoken it
and performed it says the lord and again
the word of the lord came to me saying
verse 16 as for you son of man take a
stick for yourself and write on it
for judah and the children of israel and
his companions then take another stick
on it and write on it for joseph the
sick of ephraim and for all the house of
israel in other words the kingdoms the
two are not going to be divided in that
day his companions then join them one to
another
for yourself into one stick that's
awesome you guys because the book of
isaiah is written at a time when the
kingdom is divided into two nations
there's israel in the north and judah to
the south god says there's a time coming
but i'm going to bring them back they're
going to be one nation and there will
not be two separate sticks there won't
be two nations there'll be one and
listen tonight there's one
verse 20 and the sticks on which you
write will be your
uh hand before their eyes and then say
to them thus says the lord god surely i
will take the children of israel from
among the nations ask yourself skeptic
have the jews been driven out among the
nations wherever they have gone i will
make them one nation in the land
may 14 1948
on the mountains of israel and one king
shall be over them all they shall no
longer be two nations nor shall they
ever be divided into two kingdoms again
they shall not defile themselves anymore
with their idols nor with their
detestable things nor with of their
transgressions but i will deliver them
from all their dwelling places in which
they have sinned and i will cleanse them
that part's not happened yet we're just
in the opening throes of that the nation
is there the people are there but
they're faithless
something's gonna have to happen for to
get their eyes to be open to trust in
the lord
then they shall be one people and i will
be their god david my servant now he's
talking about the millennium that's way
ahead david my servant shall be king
over them and they shall all have one
shepherd they shall all walk in my
judgments and observe my statutes and do
them then they shall dwell in the land
that i have given
to jacob my servant where your fathers
dwelt and they shall dwell there
they
their children and their children's
children forever and my servant david
shall be their prince forever moreover i
will make a covenant of peace with them
watch this and it shall be an
everlasting covenant church how long is
an everlasting covenant
it's a long time
you guys want to stand
let's all stand everybody
father we just ask you lord that as we
go tonight that you would just be with
us as we go may the joy of the lord
father be our strength tonight and
father i pray that this evening
lord god that
the fact of your word being so awesome
wonderfully true
that here we are at a time living in an
age when israel's front and center on
the news
and god that all that's going on in the
world around us
your bible has been anticipated
