Psalm 87:1–3: His foundation is in the holy mountains. The Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. Glorious things are spoken of you, O city of God!


Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms

That is where the government of the world will one day be. Isaiah 2:2 tells us, “And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.” Zechariah 2:10–11 says, “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord. And many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto thee.” 1

Living the Transformed Life

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised In the city of our God, In His holy mountain. Beautiful in elevation, The joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion on the sides of the north, The city of the great King. Psalm 48:1–2

  • Do you ever wonder why Israel is in the news everyday? It is His future destination!
  • Do you ever wonder why there is so much turmoil in Jerusalem? Satan hates that God will be worshipped and praised in the city of our Great King!
  • Do you ever wonder why anti-semitism is a world-wide movement today? Because we are so close to the Lord’s return. So stop messing around, start living for Him!

His promises have been fulfilled, and His encore can be at anytime.

Praise and Prayer

Thank You, Father, for communicating all we need to know about Your soon return. Dear Jesus, please awaken Your church from its lukewarm coma.
