Make No Mistake,
Peace Will Come
By Randy Loudenslager
Peace will come to the Middle East, this is a prophetic and biblical fact. As believers in Jesus Christ as our LORD and Savior we must fix our eyes on the end of the race, Jesus Christ. He said he is the resurrection and the life and we as believers are waiting for the Son of God to be revealed and bring with him the new life of the resurrection. We must not focus at this time on what we can receive from God or flock to those who promise to unlock some mystical potential the LORD supposedly has for us, this is self-seeking and causes blindness! We are to seek the face of God! Our way of life is to be humble and repentant and our calling is to love people through the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are to preach 'The kingdom is near' as we heal the sick, raise the dead and drive out demons! We are to watch for the bridegroom with eagerness and great anticipation, not spending our oil on ourselves but on preparing all who will receive it for the new age of the kingdom of Jesus Christ.
Loved ones, you should not live in darkness, not able to discern the signs our king gave us of his coming. Look away from yourselves and press on toward the goal. Soon Israel will be at peace with all around her and it will astound the world! They will celebrate and rejoice at what man can do of his own accord, they will ignore their sinful state and rejoice in the goodness of man. This will be a time of great deception, I urge you to remember that the kingdom is near, but first remember the LORD told us that Israel's time of punishment will come. Israel will be utterly devastated by those who make peace with her! When you see these things flee the persecution that will follow and wherever you go seek God's wisdom and teach many of his imminent return. Please don't be discouraged, many will not be sincere and many of us will be imprisoned or killed, but we know that it will be only a very short time until we shine like the stars and feast like kings!
Come LORD Jesus!
