On Thursday, May 16th 2013, Mike Bickle preached a great message during the “Israel And The Church In The End Times” conference about the glory of Jerusalem.
He used Zechariah 8:2-3 as his primary text to preach about the glory of this city that Jesus referred to as the City Of The Great King (Matthew 5:35), the city of Jerusalem. Through this passage the Lord Himself declares that He has great zeal, even great fervor that this city (Jerusalem) be not only a praise in all the earth (Isaiah 62:7) but also His eternal dwelling place with His redeemed creation.
Here are a few quotes from Mike’s message;
“We don’t blindly want for Jerusalem what Jews without Jesus want for Jerusalem. We love Jerusalem for the truth of Jesus and His plans for her.”
“Israel doesn’t need America, America needs Israel. Jerusalem has Gabriel and the King of Kings watching over her, who’s watching over America? They will be fine in the long run, though they have great trouble in the present.”
“The Great Tribulation isn’t about a glorified Antichrist and a defeated Church. It’s about a glorified/victorious Church and a defeated Antichrist.”
“Before it’s over, every person, in every place will be brought into a decision related to who’s side they stand on regarding the Nation of Israel, the city of Jerusalem and Jew’s in general.”
