If it were not for the LORD’s love, grace, and mercy, we would have been crushed like bugs long ago.
Psalms 30:10 KJV Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem? Many Christians today conflate the peace of Jerusalem with the security of an antichrist State. Jerusalem is a toponym for Salem, the dwelling place of Zion. The King of Salem (Jerusalem and Zion) is the King of the Order of Melchisedec, the King of Righteousness and Peace. This King is Jesus Christ. Therefore, Jerusalem and Zion will have no peace until Christ becomes her physical King.
Hebrews 7:1 KJV For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
Psalms 76:2 KJV In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
Hebrews 7:2 KJV To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
Hebrews 7:3 KJV Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
Hebrews 7:11 KJV If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Jesus Christ, our Lord, was born a Jew from the tribe of Judah. He was born among the worst to save the worst. The Jews have no excuse if they refuse so great a salvation.
Hebrews 7:14 KJV For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
The only way to God is through Jesus Christ. There is no other mediator or intercessor.
Hebrews 7:24 KJV But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
Hebrews 7:25 KJV Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
There is none like Jesus!
Hebrews 7:26 KJV For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
We see two orders of priesthood in the Bible, one that saves and the other that shows us that we need to be saved: the Order of Melchizedek and the Order of Aaron the Levite. The Order of Melchizedek is the Order of Hope, and the Order of Aaron the Levite is the Order of Law. The Order of Melchizedek was perfect and revealed to our father of faith, Abraham. Because of Abraham’s faith, Melchizedek gave him bread and wine.
Genesis 14:18 KJV And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
Matthew 26:26-28 KJV And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
The Order of Aaron was imperfect and could only show us that we fall short of the Law. The Law made nothing perfect. The Order of Hope did.
Hebrews 7:19 KJV For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
The Order of Hope has always been the hope of the faith seed of Abraham—the Elect—the Chosen People—the Church—the Israel of God, by the word of the oath.
Hebrews 7:28 KJV For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
Jeremiah 17:13 KJV O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
Romans 8:24 KJV For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
The Order of Melchizedek bridges the sinful gap identified by the Order of Aaron through the faith of Abraham. Within the Order of Melchizedek, we find the King of Righteousness, the King of Peace, a King who received tithes from Abraham. This order was seeded through the tribe of Judah and not the tribe of the Levites.
Hebrews 7:14 KJV For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
Genesis 14:20 KJV And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
Hebrews 7:2 KJV To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
The Order of Melchizedek brought perfection through hope. The Order of Aaron brought imperfection through sin and failure. The Son of God, the Son of Man, is our perfection and hope. For He alone is the only Begotten.
Hebrews 7:3 KJV Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
A King and Priest who came from an order of salvation, an order the sinful Levite priests could not fulfill, beginning with Aaron. The Order of Aaron was judged; the Order of Melchizedek will never be judged, for He is the Judge.
Psalms 110:4 KJV The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
This is the unchangeable priesthood, the Order of Hope.
If Jesus is merely a bobblehead on your car dashboard, you are not serving the LORD with sincerity and truth.
Joshua 24:14 KJV Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.
True faith will always choose the LORD.
Joshua 24:15 KJV And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

The works of the LORD save us. Our works condemn us.
Joshua 24:31 KJV And Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that overlived Joshua, and which had known all the works of the LORD, that he had done for Israel.
You are a fool if nationalism supersedes the word of the LORD in your life. Every nation resembling Babylon has been judged and destroyed. I am certain that each of these nations believed itself invincible, much as America falsely believes today.
Jeremiah 50:1 KJV The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
The perpetual covenant is the everlasting covenant of Christ through faith. Many Jews have chosen Jesus Christ and will live, while those who remain with their false Talmudic shepherds will perish.
Jeremiah 50:5 KJV They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
Jeremiah 50:6 KJV My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
The hiss of God's judgment upon any nation is only a doorknock away.
Jeremiah 50:13 KJV Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
Not all of national Israel or the Jewish people are saved. Only those who have been forgiven and pardoned through faith in Jesus Christ are saved. These are the ones whom God has reserved. No one will be saved apart from the mercy and grace of God Almighty through Jesus Christ.
Jeremiah 50:20 KJV In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
I believe America will be destroyed when she least expects it.
Jeremiah 50:24 KJV I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.
Something makes me shudder a little when thinking about the LORD’s armory.
Jeremiah 50:25 KJV The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
All antichrists, both Jews and Gentiles, who have pridefully defied the LORD Jesus Christ will be utterly judged and destroyed. Jesus Christ is the Holy One of Israel. For now, the devils show greater fear and awareness of this truth than most people today.
Jeremiah 50:29 KJV Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
Luke 4:34 KJV Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.
The Day of the LORD will come.
Jeremiah 50:31 KJV Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee.
I wouldn’t count on many more Pride months in the future.
Jeremiah 50:32 KJV And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
The Redeemer has always been the LORD Jesus Christ, and He has been gathering His Remnant Elect (Church) since the beginning.
Jeremiah 50:34 KJV Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
I thought I knew a lot about the Bible until I began to read the Bible a lot.
The thrice sword of the LORD will come. It seems for the West many have jumped ahead on becoming the women part.
Jeremiah 50:35 KJV A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
Jeremiah 50:36 KJV A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
Jeremiah 50:37 KJV A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
Party up your Pride days while you can, I guess, but they are always numbered and few.
Jeremiah 50:40 KJV As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
Jeremiah 50:46 KJV At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.
Father, thank You for Your redemption. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
