There is a great restoration that is unfolding before our very eyes, and God will do exactly the way He wants it to be according to his purpose and will. He will restore whatever we have lost in following him, he will restore Israel, he will restore the beauty and serenity of the earth which man have destroyed against his environment, and he will continuously restore the relationship between man and God. Mark 10:29-30, Isaiah 65 and 66, Zechariah 12, 13 and 14
In Job 42:10-17 declares the restoration of God to job over the things which he had lost during his great trials. God has restores twice more than what he had before. We know that this trial could be his downfall if Job didn’t remain faithful to his God in the face of these severe testing. It has been said that his pain and agony over his trials and overwhelming misfortunes is extremely beyond what ordinary person could bear. His testimony as being told, goes beyond what our physical being could stand, it is said that Job even take the maggots back in those opened boils over his body. He even anoints himself with ashes and sits on a pot to find some comfort or lessen the pain cause by the boils on his buttocks.
The book of Genesis records the fall of man in chapter 3 and the great flood in chapter 6, in which God made a promised of restoration in all these events. In the book of Exodus Israel during their Egyptian bondage was promised of their liberty and freedom and the restoration of the Promised Land given by God to the descendant of Abraham. God restored the land to his people and even stretched forth the boundaries far and wider more than the former. Many historical events during the time of the kings and prophets declares the wonderful works of God and the great restorations He is doing whenever His people humble themselves and turn to God in prayer as they were promised during the time of Solomon. (1 Kings 8)
Beyond the material, physical and political restoration, the spiritual restoration is so much overlook that when God send His Begotten Son his people fail to understand the purpose and of his plan, and blindness in part has happen to Israel and have cause the death of their awaited Messiah. Because of this Israel were put in judgment and were found guilty of the blood of their messiah, leaving themselves without the protection of God, therefore Israel were destroyed as prophesied and those that have survived the siege were taken as slaves and have been scattered to the four corners of the earth. But this blindness will be taken away from Israel in due time (Romans 11) and they will finally acknowledge that Jesus or Yeshua is their long awaited messiah whom they had put to death and they will mourn with a great mourning as prophesied. (Zechariah 12:10)
I certainly believed that this is happening at this very time I am writing this article. In 2006 a well respected Jewish Rabbi have testify before his death that he had met the Messiah and have talked to him about the Messiah’s apparent return or coming to Israel. And every Jew that lived were shocked when Rabbi Yitzhact Saduri wrote the acronyms of the name of the Messiah in a note he has personally written before his death and have to be read a year after his death. And the acronym spelled the name of YEHOSHUA or YESHUA which is Jesus in English. According to the article reported by two Jewish scholars and journalist, Rabbi Saduri told his followers that the return of the Messiah in Israel will be after the death of Israel former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon who suffered a serious stroke back in 2006 and remain in a state of coma up to this point of time, and that is a staggering 5 years. In due time we will see how God will do the great restoration for his people Israel and He will show his faithfulness to his covenant to his people Israel. I certainly believed that numbers of Jew are beginning to see who really the Messiah they are waiting for because these Jew will be the people in whom God will be protecting for against the invading Gentile armies in the battle of Armageddon. (Zechariah 14, Ezekiel 38, Revelation 7)
The church had started well in the time of the apostles, but as warn by Apostle Paul about the coming apostasy creeping within the church, Acts 20:29-30, Galatians 1, 2thessalonians 2: 3, Matthew 24, Revelation 2 and 3, and that antichrist and the mystery of iniquity have fought and brought many to martyrdom and some to apostasy, making the true church stripped of its glory and rightful place and push down to the very base make believe the true Christians stripped of their true power and spiritual gifts necessary for the growth of the church. Apparently this is the mission of Satan and his cohorts who is to destroy at all cost the church and the church. The well known church redeemed and purchased by the precious blood of the Lamb was replaced by a counterfeit apostate church in which all his doctrine is all abominable and a direct transgression of the word of God. (Revelation 17 and 18) Many doctrines in the bible were changes and the One God belief of the scripture was change to the doctrine of the Trinity making the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit as separate and distinct Person in the Godhead, Marian worship, idolatry in which graven image were given prominent name like of the name of the apostles and crosses bearing the image of a man nailed on the cross is revered and set on church altars, purgatory, priesthood or clergy and papal authority which eventually received by Christendom or otherwise face the gravest penalty of being a Heretic and be put to death. Many other strange doctrines were instituted and implemented by forced. Today, no Jew with knowledge of the Torah could say that trinity and these strange church doctrines of our time are based on the original teachings of the Bible. But I know and I believe the original teachings is being restored by God and it begins right in the reformation age of John Calvin and of the Wesley brothers and of Martin Luther, but the grandest is the in the early 1900 in which the baptism of the holy ghost happens to the group of believers in Azusa St, L.A California in which great revelation about the original doctrine of the early church has been taught and preached. God is restoring the glory of the Church before the day of His coming and the taking away of the true church. All these apostasy which made a great falling away within the church will be preceded by the appearing of the man of sin, the antichrist which will govern this world for seven years period, 2 Thessalonians 2:3 and he will lead the armies of the world in the great battle of Armageddon in Israel, surely Jesus will return to protect his people and the thousands and thousands of his saints will be with him to fight and restore everything which he has purpose for his people. (Revelation 16)
As a Christian we are being robbed by the enemy of our rights and blessings like Job, we are being cast down, and even we all strived and do our best to keep and have a decent living we are often fallen short of our finances and we don’t know the reasons why. Know this my friend, Satan will do everything in his power to make the true believers destitute with financial and material blessings specially if he knows that you will use it in the ministry. But do not be dismayed, but like Paul we have to fight the good fight of faith, rather than focusing yourself on problems focus on serving God more, yes we can be destitute of the things apparently belong and rightful to us, but I know in due time God will restore everything the enemy is taking from us. The time is at hand and everything is now ready and any moment, when the trumpet will sound then at the twinkling of an eye we will all fly away and meet the Lord in the air. Then and only then shall we know certainly the good things God has prepared for us and whatever you have lost in following Jesus will be restored more than what you have in the beginning. Like Job he will restore everything twice or hundredfold.
Isa_64:4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
1Co_2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
Rom 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Mar 10:28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.
Mar 10:29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
Mar 10:30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
