A Message about Philistia

47This is the Lord’s message to the prophet Jeremiah concerning the Philistines of Gaza, before it was captured by the Egyptian army.H1697H3068H3414H5030H6430H6547H5221H58042This is what the Lord says. “A flood is coming from the north to overflow the land. It will destroy the land and everything in it—cities and people alike. People will scream in terror, and everyone in the land will wail.H559H3068H4325H5927H6828H7857H5158H7857H776H4393H5892H3427H120H2199H3427H776H32133Hear the clatter of stallions’ hooves and the rumble of wheels as the chariots rush by. Terrified fathers run madly, without a backward glance at their helpless children.H6963H8161H6541H47H7494H7393H1995H1534H1H6437H1121H7510H30274“The time has come for the Philistines to be destroyed, along with their allies from Tyre and Sidon. Yes, the Lord is destroying the remnant of the Philistines, those colonists from the island of Crete

.H3117H935H7703H6430H3772H6865H6721H5826H8300H3068H7703H6430H7611H339H37315Gaza will be humiliated, its head shaved bald; Ashkelon will lie silent. You remnant from the Mediterranean coast

, how long will you lament and mourn?H7144H935H5804H831H1820H7611H6010H14136“Now, O sword of the Lord, when will you be at rest again? Go back into your sheath; rest and be still.H1945H2719H3068H3808H8252H622H8593H7280H18267“But how can it be still when the Lord has sent it on a mission? For the city of Ashkelon and the people living along the sea must be destroyed.”H8252H3068H6680H831H3220H2348H3259

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
