“The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem” (Zechariah 12:2). Emphasis added by me.
2500+/- years ago, the Holy Spirit, through the prophet Zechariah, exposed God’s plans to all who would heed them through the light of the Word of God.
The Lord God’s purpose was to reveal not only His plan for Jerusalem at the end of the age but also for these Prophetic Words to ring like a dinner bell here in 2024 to anyone with ears to hear and eyes to see.
With the attack of October 7, Jerusalem is now, indeed, a cup of trembling.
In reading the whole of the Word of God, both New and Old Testaments, we should read them with the understanding that God has not changed in the slightest. He assembled His Word, and He fully intended to convey this message and His Power to all subsequent generations.
“God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?” (Numbers 23:19).
“But You remain the same, and Your years will never end” (Psalm 102:27).
Jerusalem has been at the forefront of (modern-day) world events since May 14, 1948, when the Jewish state of Israel was reborn in a single day. (See Isaiah 66:7-9.)
