Church’s Calling to Minister Israel Why Israel? God so has loved all people on the earth that to rescue them, He had His own plan. He chose a man, which was obedient to Him and followed by Him, pursuing to His instructions – there was Abraham. From Abraham He made a nation, which have been named by gentiles “Jews”. With that nation /Jews/ God made an everlasting covenant in which stays faithful. Rom /11:2/: “God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew” These people fulfilled mission, that God meant for them in the Old Testament: this nation prepared ground where after He planted the Church.
Mission that Israel fulfilled in the Old Testament: 1. gave knowledge about God 2. gave scriptures 3. gave promises 4. gave covenants 5. gave prophets 6. gave apostles 7. gave Messiah Jesus Christ
Thus the ground for Church acceptance has been completely prepared. Then Jesus has come. He revealed the Heavenly Father to this world, has died for us on a cross and has resurrected for our justification. When He has told: “It is finished” also the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom – it was executed promise of Genesis /12:3/ “…all people on earth will be blessed through you”. That promise is for Church and today it is safely executed. Thank God. Church has come on enriched, ploughed, fructifying land. Praise the Lord. “Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious.” Romans /11:11/ As we see in this verse the Lord says to us that it is still the church has to make Israel envious to the Lord. Israel now is in such condition that it is impossible for him will return to the Lord. And into plans of the Lord enters, that the Church has made it. Church’s Calling to Minister Israel - it is Church’s mission. We think of much, we dream of much. Our Mister wishes, that we had His heart and knew His pain. For this time and for this purpose He raises up great Army - His Bride, Church, which “…will bring all your brothers, from all the nations, to my holy mountain in Jerusalem as an offering to the LORD -on horses, in chariots and wagons, and on mules and camels” Isaiah /66:20/. Isaiah says in /42:23/: “Which of you will listen to this or pay close attention in time to come?”It also is mystery of last time into which the Church for the future should penetrate. Despite of a lot of gifts and revelations in Church, it might pass by it’s calling because it didn’t “pay close attention in time to come”. God urges The Church to open today heart for Israel, to turn to Israel all heart, to be identified with Israel as Jesus was identified with us. It has not finished with Israel as some of us think. He wants to unite in one His Church and His people-Israel! This time today has come. Its powerful appeal for you as is an alarm - Divine shofar proclaims new in your destiny!
