Psa 83:1-2, …DO NOT KEEP SILENT, O GOD! DO NOT HOLD YOUR PEACE, AND DO NOT BE STILL, O GOD! For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head.
IF GOD kept silent or held HIS peace or stood still Israel would perish! Truth be told, Israel has been the target of satan for thousands of years! BUT, by the grace of GOD, HE has preserved them in spite of persecution! GOD has also brought them back to their homeland!
Eze 37:14, I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I WILL PLACE YOU IN YOUR OWN LAND. Then you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken it and performed it,” says the LORD.’ “
Psa 83:4, They have said, “COME, AND LET US CUT THEM OFF FROM BEING A NATION, THAT THE NAME OF ISRAEL MAY BE REMEMBERED NO MORE.”
Even up to present times, Israel remains a target of the world. Until the ‘TIMES OF THE GENTILES ARE FULFILLED”!
Luk 21:24, And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles UNTIL THE TIMES OF THE GENTILES ARE FULFILLED.
There are many schools of thought regarding this passage, but for me, it’s a time the LORD gave to build HIS church! There is a blindness in the truth of CHRIST JESUS, but one day the blinders shall be lifted. And, they shall see JESUS AS THEIR LONG-AWAITED MESSIAH!
Psa 83:13-14, O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind! As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
GOD is faithful to Israel in spite of their unfaithfulness to HIM! HE will always have HIS faithful remnant in Israel!
Psa 9:20, Put them in fear, O LORD, THAT THE NATIONS MAY KNOW THEMSELVES TO BE BUT MEN.
Psa 83:18, THAT THEY MAY KNOW THAT YOU, WHOSE NAME ALONE IS THE LORD, ARE THE MOST HIGH OVER ALL THE EARTH.
They world maybe blinded for now, but the day is coming Where every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that HE IS LORD!
