God's Unbending LOVE for ISRAEL

 

Deuteronomy 7:7

King James Version

7 The Lord did not set his love upon you, 

nor choose you, 

because ye were more in number than any people; 

for ye were the fewest of all people:

Unless you are guided, and taught, by the Holy Spirit of God, you won't understand the mystery, of why God loves Israel so much, even as His chosen people continue to defy Him.

But if you are a believer of Jesus, born again, living by the WORD of GOD, you will see the beauty of God's plan.

Do we really doubt the wisdom of God?

Even as most Jews don't believe in Jesus?

Even as this recent Jewish celebration, which turned tragic, sought God, but didn't honor Jesus?

Even as Jerusalem was recently attacked by militants.

Perhaps, GOD allows all to happen -- sin, doubt, and disobedience -- for His particular purpose.

God's purpose for Israel can be understood from these verses:

Isaiah 43:21

King James Version

21 This people have I formed for myself; 

they shall shew forth my praise.

Jeremiah 31:1

King James Version

31 At the same time, 

saith the Lord, 

will I be the God of all the families of Israel, 

and they shall be my people.

God so loved Israel, He sent them His Son, Jesus.

Romans 11:26-27

King James Version

26 And so all Israel shall be saved: 

as it is written, 

There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, 

and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

27 For this is my covenant unto them, 

when I shall take away their sins.

Yes, temporary sleep is upon Israel.

Romans 11:8

King James Version

8 (According as it is written, 

God hath given them the spirit of slumber, 

eyes that they should not see, 

and ears that they should not hear;) 

unto this day.

But God has a plan.

Romans 11:11

King James Version

11 I say then, 

Have they stumbled that they should fall? 

God forbid: 

but rather through their fall 

salvation is come unto the Gentiles, 

for to provoke them to jealousy.

Israel will wake up when this occurs:

Romans 11:25

King James Version

25 For I would not, brethren, 

that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, 

lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; 

that blindness in part is happened to Israel, 

until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

Even as, in the heart of Jesus, we are all one in Him.

Galatians 3:28

King James Version

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, 

there is neither bond nor free, 

there is neither male nor female: 

for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Let us not be so quick to criticize Israel.

It is still God's chosen nation, the apple of His eye.

Zechariah 2:8

King James Version

8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; 

After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations 

which spoiled you: 

for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.

Let the fullness of God's plan come through.

Only God knows best.

And knows all.
