Jeremiah 12:1 Righteous are You, Lord, when I plead my case with You;
Nevertheless I would discuss matters of justice with You:
Why does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why are all those who deal in treachery at ease?
[H7951] sala=at ease, secure, tranquil.
sala is used in Psalm 122, and is translated prosper.
Psalm 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
they shall prosper (be at ease and secure) that love thee.
The Lord has made Jerusalem a cup of trembling for the world and an ever present flash point for not only regional instability
but also global conflict. And yet, we are assured that when watchman intercessors lift up Jerusalem to the Lord, they are
sowing unto their spirit an inner tranquility by means of fervent prayer and supplications.
The calling of watchman for Jerusalem
Isaiah 62:1 For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace,
And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
And her salvation as a lamp that burns.
6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
They shall never hold their peace day or night.
You who make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
7 And give Him no rest till He establishes
And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
Prayer for Jerusalem
Daniel 9:16-19 O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us. Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and for the Lord’s sake cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary, which is desolate. O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolation, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.
Sowing and Reaping
James 3:18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
Isaiah 32:
17 The work of righteousness will be peace,
And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
18 My people will dwell in peaceful habitations,
In secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
Spiritual prosperity is found through Spirit-filled intercession.
1 John 3:10 In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest:
Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God,
nor is he who does not love his brother.
Nevertheless I would discuss matters of justice with You:
Why does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why are all those who deal in treachery at ease?
