"Why Are The Nations So Angry?"

Much of the world says:
The Living Triune God says, "The Lord is rebuilding Jerusalem and bringing the exiles back to IsraelHe sends His orders to the world--- how swiftly His Word flies!" (Psalm 147:2, 15, NLT)

The world can flash all the signs it desires.  Yet what Father said so long ago in Psalm 2 has never before seen such a prophetic moment as now.  "Why are the nations so angryWhy do they waste their time with futile plansThe kings of the earth prepare for battle; the rulers plot together against the LORD and against His anointed One....But the One Who rules in heaven laughs....Then in anger He rebukes them, terrifying them with his fierce furyFor the LORD declares, 'I have placed My chosen on the throne in Jerusalem, on My holy mountain.'"  

Most people think that unless missionaries preach, teach, build hospitals and schools, etc., they are not valid missionaries.  Yet the same people overlook the reality that prayer was central and foundational to all the work of the most well known leaders in Church History.
"I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach." (Charles Spurgeon)
"The man who mobilizes the Christian church to pray will make the greatest contribution to world evangelization in history." (Andrew Murray)  
"We give too much attention to method and machinery and resources, and too little to the source of power." (Hudson Taylor)
"To know the will of God, we need an open Bible and an open map." (William Carey)

Our text declares, "The LORD is rebuilding Jerusalem and bringing the exiles back to Israel."  If I were offering some advice to world leaders, I would say, "He sends His orders to the world."  Just watch, "How swiftly His Word flies!"!!

Father, in Jesus' Name, almost twelve years ago You gave me the word of Deuteronomy 5:31, "But as for you, stand here by Me."  I pray that I walk in it.  Amen.
