ZECHARIAH 8 - GOD'S RESTORATION OF JERUSALEM & HIS PEOPLE

Father, Son & Holy Spirit led me with eyes closed to Zechariah 8 ( 8 = NEW BEGINNINGS) for the 11th time (11 = TRANSITION, 11TH HOUR) on Dec 31 (31= OFFSPRING, NEXT GENERATION, LEGACY, HERITAGE OF GOD'S PEOPLE). 

"Very old people with walking sticks will once again sit around in Jerusalem, while boys and girls play in the streets. This may seem impossible for my people who are left, but it isn't impossible for me, the Lord All-Powerful. I will save those who were taken to lands in the east and the west, and I will bring them to live in Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be their God, faithful to bring about justice. I am the Lord All-Powerful! So don't give up. Think about the message my prophets spoke when the foundation of my temple was laid. Before that time, neither people nor animals were rewarded for their work, and no one was safe anywhere, because I had turned them against each other. My people, only a few of you are left, and I promise not to punish you as I did before. Instead, I will make sure that your crops are planted in peace and your vineyards are fruitful, that your fields are fertile, and the dew falls from the sky. People of Judah and Israel, you have been a curse to the nations, but I will save you and make you a blessing to them. So don't be afraid or lose courage. When your ancestors made me angry, I decided to punish you with disasters, and I didn't hold back. Now you no longer need to be afraid. I have decided to treat Jerusalem and Judah with kindness. But you must be truthful with each other, and in court you must give fair decisions that lead to peace. Don't ever plan evil things against others or tell lies under oath. I, the Lord, hate such things. The Lord All-Powerful told me to say: People of Judah, I, the Lord, demand that whenever you go without food as a way of worshiping me, it should become a time of celebration. No matter if it's the fourth month, the fifth month, the seventh month, or the tenth month, you should have a joyful festival. So love truth and live at peace. I tell you that people will come here from cities everywhere. Those of one town will go to another and say, “We're going to ask the Lord All-Powerful to treat us with kindness. Come and join us.” Many people from strong nations will come to Jerusalem to worship me and to ask me to treat them with kindness. When this happens, ten people from nations with different languages will grab a Jew by his clothes and say, “Let us go with you. We've heard that God is on your side.” I, the Lord All-Powerful, have spoken!”

‭‭Zechariah‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬-‭23‬ ‭CEV‬‬

ZECHARIAH PROPHESIED THE RESTORATION OF JERUSALEM.

THE LORD OF HOSTS IS ZEALOUS (deeply concerned) FOR HIS PEOPLE IN ISRAEL. THEREFORE, HE WILL FIGHT FOR THEM & RETURN IN VICTORY TO DWELL AMONG THEM & THEY WILL BE TRANSFORMED BY HIS GLORIOUS PRESENCE ✨ JERUSALEM SHALL BE CALLED THE CITY OF TRUTH, THE HOLY MOUNTAIN.

JERUSALEM WILL THRIVE & BECOME A SAFE PLACE TO LIVE. THE LORD SAYS "IT WILL SEEM AMAZING TO YOU. DO YOU THINK IT IS TOO HARD FOR ME?"

"With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26

AND HIS PEOPLE WHO WERE EXILED (the lost tribes of Israel) WILL BE GATHERED BOTH PHYSICALLY & SPIRITUALLY BACK TO THE PROMISED LAND. THE LORD PROMISED THAT CHASTISEMENT IS OVER & A NEW DAY IS DAWNING FOR HIS PEOPLE .. ONE OF BLESSING AND PROSPERITY.

THE LORD ADMONISHES HIS PEOPLE TO HONOR THE MOSAIC COVENANT.. TO LOVE TRUTH & PEACE AS HE LOVES TRUTH & PEACE. AND JERUSALEM WILL BE THE HEADQUARTERS OF GOD'S KINGDOM .. MANY NATIONS WILL COME THERE TO SEEK THE LORD'S FAVOR.

WHILE THIS PROPHECY APPLIES TO THE NATION OF ISREAL.. IT ALSO APPLIES TO ALL OF US. WHEN OTHERS SEE THAT GOD IS WITH US ✨ IT ATTRACTS THEM TO THE LORD. CHRIST IN YOU IS THE HOPE OF GLORY.

When I posted today's scripture & message on X, I received a timestamp of 12:20 .. Psalm 122 IS AMAZING CONFIRMATION!!!!!

“It made me glad when they said, “Let's go to the house of the Lord!” Jerusalem, we are standing inside your gates. Jerusalem, what a strong and beautiful city you are! Every tribe of the Lord obeys him and comes to you to praise his name. David's royal throne is here where justice rules. Jerusalem, we pray that you will have peace, and that all will go well for those who love you. May there be peace inside your city walls and in your palaces. Because of my friends and my relatives, I will pray for peace. And because of the house of the Lord our God, I will work for your good.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭122‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭CEV‬‬

This is the 5th time this week I have been led to scriptures (WITH EYES CLOSED!!!!!!!!) that speak of the 2nd coming of Jesus 👀👀👀

IF YOU DIED TONIGHT IN YOUR SLEEP, ARE YOU CONFIDENT THAT YOU WOULD SPEND ETERNITY IN HEAVEN?

Jesus is the ONLY WAY!!!

BY ACKNOWLEDGING WITH YOUR WORDS (FROM YOUR HEART) THAT JESUS IS YOUR LORD & SAVIOR, YOU ARE SAVED FOR ALL ETERNITY.

GOD DOES NOT EXPECT US TO BE PERFECT, BUT HE REQUIRES THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT HIS SON IS THE CHRIST WHO CAME TO TAKE AWAY YOUR SINS & TO MAKE A WAY FOR YOU TO SPEND ALL ETERNITY IN HEAVEN WHEN YOUR LIFE HERE ON EARTH IS FINISHED.

IF YOU HAVE NOT MADE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE, DON'T WAIT ANOTHER MINUTE SAY THIS PRAYER NOW (MUST BE SAID ALOUD):

Father God, I recognize I am a sinner. I come to you asking forgiveness of my sins. I confess in my heart and speak with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Your Son, and He died on the cross for my sins. I confess Jesus as the Lord of my heart, my soul and my life. I accept Jesus as my personal Savior and I praise You for making a way for me. I declare by the Blood of Jesus that I am saved. Jesus, I invite You into my life, and I pray You continue to reveal your LOVE to me by Your Holy Spirit. I ask You to have Your way with my life. I thank You for the new creation You have made me.
