When there is peace in Jerusalem, there is peace in the world. Right now, the world is searching for peace in all the wrong ways, looking in all the wrong places. The winds of war are blowing through our cities and our homes. America has become a lawless nation, living in a state of chaos because we have rejected the Prince of Peace. Now the Prince of Darkness is taking over. We have forgotten to have “no other gods before Him.” Peace is the gift of God that cannot be obtained without first surrendering our lives to Him. Why pray for the peace of Jerusalem? The Bible commands it. To pray for the peace of Jerusalem is to pray for the arrival of Messiah. When He returns, we will have peace like never before.
