God chose the man Abram to start his plan of reconciliation,
He believed and his descendents would be a mighty little nation.

When God first spoke to Abram, he told him to leave his relations,
Later changing his name to Abraham, as the father of many nations.

For through his seed God would bless all the nations of the earth,
Later Isaiah prophesied this seed would come through a virgin birth.

From the tribe of Judah the Lord’s Scepter shall never depart,
These were words spoken by Abraham, right from his heart.

This was Abraham’s blessing to his son Judah at his departure,
And as the Father of All Nations, Judah couldn’t be any surer.

God began to fulfill His promise with one of Judah’s very own,
For through King David He would establish an everlasting throne.

God used his son Solomon to build a temple in Jerusalem for The Lord.
Through Nathan, God told David that his Kingdom would forever endure.

Although the Kingdom grew great under Solomon, his heart turned away,
So God tore away the Kingdom, but for David’s sake Judah He let stay.

It will be The Lion of Judah, who fulfills the promise of The Lord,
It is under Christ, The Son of David, that the land will be restored.

However, many countries will be left out of God’s plan of Salvation,
For they have harbored hatred and despised this tiny little nation.

He's coming very soon, the signs are very clear,
And when that trumpet sounds, we’ll be otta here!
Waiting in Him with Great Expectation, Bob Gott

I really appreciate your sense of history. Thank you for paying the price, via your "pressing in", to bring this accurate frame of what has been. The manifold cries of Old Testament prophets undeniably point to Christ as the Messiah. I believe!

Love,

(big hugggssssssss) Yes, some peoples only want to terrorize other nations and they must be retributed, though He will reach out to those peacekeepers and together in blended blood the deed shall be done! (sigh) God Bless You, dearest friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bob, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
