The Father’s Glory Plan
This is the Father’s glory plan to show Himself through Israel’s spiritual awakening to the nations (Ezekiel 36:22-28), but also through the church to work through them with His mercy; our intercession and evangelism (Ezekiel 37:9-11). Does this help you to understand this better? Can we please try to consider that as we enter this time of transition into the fullness of the Gentiles that perhaps there are adjustments that we will need to make concerning Israel and this spiritual awakening, which must take place? Looking at time as a whole may help us to better understand this. For hasn’t God now spent equal time on His Jewish and Gentile family throughout history? Two thousand years on His firstborn children since Abraham’s call and two thousand years on His children from the nations. However, as we come down to the end, we know that Israel must be spiritually restored. So the Holy Spirit is beginning to move us into this direction so that Israel can be awakened and the bride prepared for His coming. As a result, this time we are coming into is different from the past, as the family must be reconnected spiritually and become one.
However, what we may not have seen properly up until this time is that we are intricately linked together to bring about God’s glory upon the earth. I believe this to be God’s design to finally unite His family between Jew and Gentile. For if Israel’s spiritual awakening will bring this glory (Ezekiel 36:22-28), who is it that will breathe life back into them? Will it just be between them and God, or does God always work through humankind to bring about His plans? Didn’t God work through Israel to bring the gospel to the nations through His Jewish apostles? Now, in turn, to complete the family circle, He desires to work through us in His church to help breathe that life back into them. It makes perfect sense when you think of it in this family light. What a plan!
I always say that if we truly knew the significance and consequences of this transaction in us, we would actually run to it with all of our heart, with all our might and with all our strength!
