God is setting the stage for the return of Jesus Christ, our Messiah, with Jerusalem and Israel at the center of these unfolding events. For nearly 1900 years after the destruction of Jerusalem, following the Jewish revolt from 66-70 AD when the walls were breached on Tammuz 17 and the temple was destroyed, the city endured numerous overthrows. After the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, the British assumed control of Palestine, and on November 2, 1917, the Balfour Declaration expressed favor for establishing a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine. On May 14, 1948, against all odds, the state of Israel was born, marking a significant step in this divine timetable. The Ten Jubilee Prophecy of Jerusalem, attributed to Rabbi Judah ben Samuel from 1150-1217 AD, foretold that the Ottomans would rule Jerusalem for eight jubilees, or 400 years, from 1517 to 1917, after which Jerusalem would be a no man's land for one jubilee, until 1967. At the end of this ninth jubilee, following the Six Day War, Jerusalem returned to Jewish possession, signifying the beginning of the Messianic end time. The tenth jubilee concluded in 2017, when the United States recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and announced the relocation of its embassy there, further aligning with God's plan for the return of the Lord. Historical moments reveal God's hand in supporting Israel through various leaders. In 1948, President Harry Truman was the first to recognize Israel as an independent nation, setting a precedent for its establishment. In 1973, during the Yom Kippur War, President Richard Nixon provided crucial aid to Israel at a critical moment, ensuring their survival against surrounding enemies. These events underscore how God uses individuals and nations to fulfill His purpose for Israel. Jerusalem stands as the spiritual epicenter of the earth, the place where our Messiah came in the flesh, shed His blood, rose from the dead, ascended to heaven, and will return to rule. All these miraculous events and historical developments show that God is preparing for Christ's return, which is closer than many realize. Jerusalem will play a pivotal role in these end times, and it remains the focal point of God's unfolding plan.
