For Zion's Sake...
I will not keep silent,
for Jerusalem’s sake,
I will not remain quiet,
till her righteousness
shines out like the dawn,
her salvation like a blazing torch.
The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name
that the mouth of the LORD will bestow...
Can a nation be born in a day? Has a nation ever been "re-born" after not existing for nearly 2000 years? The state of Israel is a reality, ever present in the world's news, and an ongoing fulfillment of their Lord's prophecies and love. It is not a question of when anymore; the scattered peoples are being regathered and the nations watch in disbelief.
Even many people who call themselves Christians or Jews do not believe that God is actively showing the world proof of His existence, and of His promises for His chosen people. According to the doubters and unbelievers, this nation nonexistent for nealy two millennia that today calls itself Israel, is not the Israel foretold to be reestablished and prepared for the King's arrival. They would say Israel is an accident of politics, that happens to perfectly fulfill statistically impossible prophecies about it's own renewal. To deny Israel it's place in prophecy and the Lord's plan currently unfolding, in nothing less than to deny reality. The nations will see, and for Jerusalem's sake believers should not remail silent.
