Many know to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Most do not know for what they are praying.
Jerusalem on edge over Temple Mount – No “peace commission” or “peace conference” or “peace plan” of man will secure the peace of Jerusalem.
Still, believers are to pray for the peace of Jerusalem as this is, in effect, praying for the return of Jesus (which is when Jerusalem shall know peace).
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.”
—Psalm 122:6
Still, the Bible tells us that men will scheme for Jerusalem’s peace and that the world will applaud their machinations. The reader will see Jerusalem figure in many end times schemes of man.
DOES the reader wonder why this is?
Jerusalem will figure into the last conflicts on earth as we know it.
“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”
—Zechariah 12:2
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Praying for the peace of Jerusalem is the same as praying “Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”
By doing so, one is praying for the return of Jesus Christ.
DOES the reader pray for the peace of Jerusalem?
IS the reader looking for the soon return of Jesus Christ?
THERE is still yet time to change direction (repent).

THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3
