Isaiah Chapter 62
This is great, is it not? God will not rest until He brings salvation and righteousness to Jerusalem. For some reason Zion and the area of Jerusalem is the place where the very heart of God longs to make holy and righteousness. Someday we will know why and will understand. Salvation is to go forth as a burning lamp and righteousness as brightness.
Jerusalem shall have a new name given to them by God himself. Gentiles shall see the righteousness and glory that comes to Jerusalem. The whole world will be effected by this remarkable change in the Middle East.
Jerusalem will be where the throne of the Messiah resides. Christ will rule and reign from Jerusalem and shall rule the whole world. He will come back literally to rule, from the clouds of heaven. He will not be a person already here but as lightning shines out of heaven, He will return bringing with Him those He previously had taken by way of the rapture. If any arises from an earthly person and says He is Christ, it is a false one. Christ already came the 1st time as a person born of a woman. God became a man to make an offering for sin. The second time He comes will be to set up His kingdom after He first takes out of the earth His faithful believers, then pours out His wrath upon those that harmed His people.
An unmarried lady used to be considered desolate. If she was childless she was also considered desolate. The land of Jerusalem will be as a married woman, very well taken care of and blessed.
The Lord watches over Jerusalem. People might fight over Jerusalem and war continually but in the end those to whom the Lord chooses will possess it. Those who love the Lord and follow His ways will possess it. The saints of God will inhabit Jerusalem. (Saints being those who have received Jesus Christ as Lord and savior) These will be believing Jews as well as Gentiles who became adopted into Israel by faith in Christ.
No longer will the armies of the earth tread down Jerusalem. Enemies of Israel will not trample under foot the holy city when Christ comes to rule and reign.
Jesus Christ returns to establish his throne in Jerusalem set up His righteous kingdom and give rewards to those whom are faithful.
This is a time when Israel is brought back to God. They discover who their true Messiah is. (This is Jesus Christ, the one who was rejected by their forefathers). They will be saved and redeemed from the earth. They will become a blessed city. This is the beginning of the true and only peace on the earth.
