Published by According to CBN, the Jews have been praying for the rebuilding of the temple for almost 2000 years. They pray everyday three times a day. It seems that Israel has been fighting for years. Why are they fighting? What are they fighting for? Americans know that the Jews are God’s chosen people, but do they know that they are God’s chosen people? If they know, why don’t they stop and think to come together, ask God for forgiveness, and then be blessed?
Israel, stop fighting and build a new way! Before God will allow the temple to be rebuilt, hearts, minds, souls, and bodies need to change. If the people of Israel change and come together, to me, that is part of the building. That is the foundation. When people are fighting and at war, there is no foundation. There is only destruction. Not only should they be praying for the temple to be rebuilt, but they should be praying for peace.
Zechariah 6:12-13,15
And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord: (13) Even he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.(15) And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God.
I believe The Branch is Christ. The Bible said that they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the Lord. I sure would like to help if I could. The things the Bible said will happen will happen, but it will not if we do not obey the voice of the Lord our God. If Israel would stop fighting in their country, I believe that God will make a way for his word to come to pass for them. I believe that God will make a way for all nations, kindreds, families, people, and tongues. We just need to turn back to God.
Good post!

Dear Gail
No one likes wars. But unfortunately the Jewish people have a long history of being at war. They will continue to do so. Why?
Because of the land God gave to them. Until all of the land promised to them by God (to Abraham) is theirs again, they will continue to fight for it. It is a holy war. Christians are in a spirital war also, as well as a war to protect their faith…many ideas and forces are against Christianiy…and Judiasm. No war is nothing anyone cares to be envolved in, but we all are.
Yea, I know that war will not stop until Jesus comes. Still, we need to be told some wisdom to open up minds, and God’s word should continue to be heard and preached. Some people will listen, and some people will not. Sometimes we think it does no good, but it helps. We just do not always see it. But no matter what, we have to strive for Jesus and do what we are told. We have to move along.
