Malachi 3:17 “And they shall be Mine,” saith the Lord of hosts, “in that day when I make up My jewels; and I will spare them as a man spareth his own son who serveth him’.

DAILY READING – Luke 16; Genesis 27:46-28:22; Psalm 21

The Phoenician city of Tyre, on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea, was one of the most ancient and wealthiest cities in history. During the reigns of King David and King Solomon, Hiram, king of Tyre, supplied building materials and skilled labor for important structures in Israel.
However due to its transgressions against God, Ezekiel prophesied that many nations would come against Tyre and that Nebuchadnezzar would besiege the city. He also said that Tyre would be broken down and the stones, timber, and soil would be thrown in “the midst of the water;” and the city would become a “place for spreading nets;” and would never be rebuilt.
All these prophecies came to pass. The siege of Nebuchadnezzar took place within a few months of Ezekiel’s prophecy as Nebuchadnezzar besieged Tyre for thirteen years and destroyed the mainland city, leaving only the island city.
Also as Ezekiel had prophesied, history records that many nations attacked Tyre including Babylon, Syria, Egypt, Rome, Greece, Armenia, and Persia.
Ezekiel’s prophecy that Tyre would be destroyed and its building material cast into the midst of the waters was fulfilled when the army of Alexander the great carried the stones from mainland city of Tyre into the seas to form a bridge that enabled them to reach the island city of Tyre, which they utterly destroyed and burned.
Again Ezekiel prophesied that the city of Tyre would “never be rebuilt” and “be no more forever”. This was fulfilled by the fact that the location of the ancient mainland city of Tyre, is believed today to be buried under the Mediterranean Sea and its location, over the course of the last 2,500 years, has become lost to modern knowledge.
Ezekiel’s acutely accurate prediction of the destruction of the city of Tyre is found in Ezekiel Chapter 26 and was written in 597 B.C. It remains an outstanding and amazing proof of Biblical fulfillment of prophecy

Predictive prophecy stands as one of the most viable proofs of the Bible’s accuracy. Truly, the Word of God stands sure forever. Whatever God has said, will eventually come to pass. And just as past prophesies have come to pass, so also end-time prophesies are coming to pass in our times.
Today we are living in the last part of the last days. However, in the struggle to live our daily lives, it sometimes seems farfetched to think that the end is really close. But that is the enemy’s plan; to keep men distracted and focused on running after earthly things while their eternal destiny hangs in the balance.
Jesus said in Luke 21 that the end of the world would come upon people as a snare. That means many will be taken by surprise, because they were not really expecting it. Jesus also said that it will be like the days of Noah, where many people were eating, drinking, building and marrying until the flood came.
We truly need to live ready. We need to live in spiritual preparation by constantly studying the scriptures and drawing closer to God through intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit. We also need to be discerning so as to understand the signs unfolding around us.
The key to exemption from the perils of the end-times is to serve God in spirit and truth. In Malachi 3:17 God says “And they shall be Mine,” saith the Lord of hosts, “in that day when I make up My jewels; and I will spare them as a man spareth his own son who serveth him.’
As sons of God in these last days, let our focus be on going after the Fathers business, which is winning souls and promoting His kingdom. By pursuing God’s will and purpose, He will spare us from the plagues of the end-times and bless us exceedingly, because He is indeed a rewarder of those that diligently seek and serve Him.

PRAYER; Father thank You for the grace not be derailed in these end-times by the many distractions on earth, but rather I shall focus in this endtime on seeking and serving You more than ever before in Jesus Name.
