Not Of This World
Daniel 10 - Gabriel mentions a prince of Persia, a Prince of Greece, and that Michael is the prince over Israel. There are spiritual influences over nations.
Ephesians 6:12 - Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
“River To The Sea”
This chant can be heard throughout the world as protestors oppose the Israeli occupation of Gaza and really ALL of Israel as a country. The River is the Jordan River and the Sea is the Mediterranean. If the Jewish people were removed from this area and the Islamic Arabs took the land “from the river to the sea” then there would be no more Israel.
The Future Promise
Revelation 21 “And [the angel] carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city of Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God…The angel who spoke with me had a golden measuring rod to measure the city and its gates and walls. The city lies foursquare, with its width the same as its length. And he measured the city with the rod, and all its dimensions were equal-12,000 stadia in length and width and height. And he measured its wall to be 144 cubits, by the human measure the angel was using.”
