We are living in a time of turmoil over Jerusalem. A city soon to be divided by current Peace Talks...

Oh Jerusalem...you have had a rocky and rough past...around 767 verses speak of this city. But yet she still stands today, as a testimony for that which is promised in Revelation 3:12 & 21:2.
Give the LORD some praise!
