Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 19 December 2012, from Cindi, a Daughter of the King of kings and Lord of lords."
Today's Blog Title: "God Judges the Nations"
Today's Scripture Reading: Joel 3:1-21
Today's Blog Key Verse: Joel 3:17 "So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion my holy mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be holy, And no aliens shall ever pass through her again."
The Book and prophecy of Joel concludes with a description of God's future program. First God will provide for individuals by pouring out His Spirit on all people, in response to their cry to Him for salvation.
As for the people whom God considers His inheritance, Israel, the Lord will restore their fortunes, and judge the nations who have oppressed her. He will arouse the latent hostility of the nations against the Jews and cause them to advance against His people.
The military weapons of the Gentile nations will not be sufficient enough to protect them against the Judgment of Almighty God. Therefore they are exhorted to beat their "plowshares into swords" and their pruning hooks into spears."
Then, as the enemy armies deploy against the Holy Land, God will miraculously intervene on their behalf. After that day of God's judgment of pagan nations, Judah and Jerusalem, the sins of her people pardoned, will enter an ear of lasting prosperity.
The Book of Joel in Chapter 1, began with the locust plague. In Chapter 2:18-27, there is a promised renewal of agriculture with the return of God's blessing on His repentant people. Then the Book of Joel closes in Chapter 3:18-21, there is a final renewal of agriculture because of the blessing of the resident King. The Lord's presence in Jerusalem is the key to the blessing of the whole land.

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord our God with Gladness. Love God More Today. Always remember that when you have a spiritual, emotional, relational, physical, or financial dilemma in your life, and you yell out, "I CAN'T," GOD Whispers to you "BUT I CAN."
Your Sister in Christ,
Cindi
