John 10:4 “And when HE brings out HIS own sheep, HE goes before them; and the sheep follow HIM, for they know HIS voice.”
Two “States”, ONE King!
Watching Scripture unfold as Israel is stumbling, accepting a two state division from Hell…
…so also reminded are we of positions. Two sides with one — “Well!” and evil — the other.
But the dice have been thrown and the die has been cast. Their choice bringing Pain — self inflicted.
Yet through such HE comes, reconciling HIS people, back onto HIS side — ne’er again to depart.
So through tribulation shall Israel rejoin JESUS CHRIST WHOM they crucified — siding with satan.
But GOD — ever faithful — shall surely retrieve them! Two folds — Jew and CHRISTian — HE shall make as one!
Thus we honor our brothers and sisters though separate we are at this moment…though HE’s not yet come!
So run to the altar and bow with Surrender for Faithful; is HE WHO — the Battle — has won!
As HIServant bent on serving and watching with the utmost excitement — awaiting our CREATOR with you,

Devotional: John 10:14-16 “I AM the good SHEPHERD; and I know MY sheep, and am known by MY own.
15 As the FATHER knows ME, even so I know the FATHER; and I lay down MY life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear MY voice; and there will be one flock and one SHEPHERD.”
John Piper: “John 10:16 is the foundation for our confidence that we will make it to heaven, and it is the foundation for our confidence that GOD’s worldwide purpose will succeed in bringing HIS sheep from every race, every tribe, every language, every people group into one flock with one Great SHEPHERD.”
I do not wish any CHRISTian minimize, consciously or otherwise, this extreme and eternal privilege of being “grafted in”!
The LORD chose Israel as a nation and made a way for Gentiles to hear HIS voice and come home as well.
What Joy beyond Comprehension and how gracious is HE WHO called us before Time!
So let us with Reverence approach HIS throne boldly…well knowing HIS chosen we all are — combined!
Amen and amen!
