PSALM 2:9 – Thou shalt break them with A ROD OF IRON; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
“THOU SHALT BREAK THEM WITH A ROD OF IRON”
The Son of God and of man was sent to rule and reign over all the earth, but he was rejected and cut off by both Jew and Gentile Romans.
Micah 5:2 – But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
Revelation 12:3-6 – And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. [4] And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it
was born. [5] And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with A ROD OF IRON: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. [6] And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
The woman who rejected her Messiah has paid a terrible price for her rejection for the last 1940 years.
Israel will flee into the Negev Wilderness
in the next major Middle East war, and remain there for some three and one-half years, after which she will be delivered ty her Messiah at His second Advent. (See Archive Prophecy Updates 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, and 69 plus Archive Birth Pangs 36 to 43)
Revelation 19:14-16 – And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with A ROD OF IRON: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and
on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
NOT ONLY WILL JESUS BREAK THEM WITH A ROD OF IRON AT HIS 2ND ADVENT, HE WILL ALSO RULE THOSE LEFT IN FLESH AFTER THE 7 VIALS OF WRATH WITH RODS OF IRON FOR A THOUSAND YEARS. THE ONES WHO WERE FAITHFUL OVERCOMERS WILL BE HIS RODS OF IRON ON THIS EARTH DURING HIS REIGN.
Revelation 2:26-29 – And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: [27] And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. [28] And I will give him the morning star. [29] He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
AND THEY WILL RECEIVE THE REWARD OF FELLOWSHIP FOR THEIR FAITHFULNESS WITH THE MORNING STAR IN THE NEW JERUSALEM.
Revelation 22:16 – I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and
the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
“AND THOU SHALT DASH THEM IN PIECES LIKE A POTTER’S VESSEL”
Because the leaders of the nation of Israel rejected Jesus as the cornerstone of the Kingdom of God, the very stone they rejected has become the stone Gentile nations received, but those who reject Christ as King will be broken by him or ground to powder.
Matthew 21:33-45 – Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: [34] And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. [35] And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. [36] Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
[37] But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
[38] But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
[39] And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. [40] When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen
? [41] They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. [42] Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? [43] Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. [44] And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
[45] And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
