Ezekiel 37:15-28
God will unite Judah and Israel into one nation in the hand, on the mountains of Israel.
David God's servant will be king over them, and they will all have one shepherd.
God makes a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant.
They will no longer defile themselves with their idols and vile images or with any of their offenses.
Israel will be remade and live again. The two warring kingdoms will become one nation under one king - a new David.
Why?
The promise to the exiles merges into the full blessing of the future golden age.
The return is only a foretaste of all God has in store for his people.
Hold two sticks end to end in your hand so that they look like one stick.
David, the ideal, messianic king, who will rule for ever in peace and righteousness.
Jesus Christ built a new everlasting nation with everlasting covenant- repent from your sin and turn to Jesus, believe Jesus is the son of God, accept Jesus as your king, then this covenant will be built in your heart. This is the everlasting covenant God made for us.
God hopes us unite into one in present of Him, with love and peace.
How?
Unite us with the Lord through Jesus Christ, this is the gift of the Lord to us when we celebrate the season of Christmas.
