Yes, I am preaching this week in a Revival Meeting. Psalm 83, verse by verse. And today’s “Millennium Text” will become part of this evening’s Sermon, the Lord willing.

Specifically: “Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name. If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.” Verses 35-37 of Jeremiah 31.

This is a powerful Statement!

God just guaranteed the longevity of Israel as a Nation! Perpetually so, looks like!

As long as the sun shines and the moon waxes and wanes!

As long as the stars twinkle and the sea roars!

Israel will never cease from being a nation!

Then comes the same truth worded a different way …

If every square inch of the earth (all the way to the core, to the molten fire there) could be examined thoroughly (searched out) … then Israel might be in danger! (A feat that will never happen, not by mortal man! Too deep, too dark, too hot, too far!)

Or if the heavens above (not just could be mapped) could somehow be distributed/rearranged (one valid meaning of the verb “measured”) by any human being … then Israel might be in jeopardy! (Another impossibility, we have not even seen all the universe out there! And now it is believed that it is expanding so rapidly we shall never see it all!)

So I conclude, deduce … “the seed of Israel” … is eternally part of God’s Plan, as a Nation! (Much as the Church is too, as the Bride of Christ Jesus our Lord!)

One amazing Lesson today!

Thank you Jeremiah.
