"All the way around shall be eighteen thousand cubits; and the name of the city from that day shall be: THE LORD IS THERE." (Ezekiel 48:35)
These are the last Words of the Major Prophets section of the Bible. This is akin to what Jesus says in John 12:26, "Whoever serves Me must follow Me, and where I am, there also will my servant be...." (NAB)
Isn't this "what it's all about?"---- "THE LORD IS THERE"----"....and where I am...." Moreover, Revelation 22 confirms that The Living Triune God Himself is our eternal resting place. "This world is not my home, I'm just a-passing through." (Hebrews 11)
Father, in Jesus' Name, in a world filled with such hatred and violence, I thank You for providing me a home in, "THE LORD IS THERE." Amen.
