Jerusalem: Throne of Thrones for the King of Kings | Ariel Blumenthal

The LORD says, “I will set My throne in Elam” (Jeremiah 49:38) — modern-day Iran. But the same prophet said in chapter 3:17 that Jerusalem will be called the throne of the LORD. If the King of kings is returning to rule and reign from His throne in Jerusalem, why does He say that He will also set His throne in Elam”? How can He have more than one throne, and what does this mean for us today? What is the significance of Elam being connected to Persia, and to Cyrus, the only Gentile king uniquely called the LORD’s anointed? Listen in as Ariel Blumenthal breaks down Jeremiah 49:38-39 and connects it to our role as one new man in prayer, worship, and intercession, leaving us asking: Is this the time of the restoration of Elam/Persia/Iran? ____ 00:00 Introduction: Jeremiah 4:38-39 and the Throne in Elam 01:32 Thrones, Dominions, Rulers, and Authorities in Colossians 1:16 02:58 Spiritual Warfare and the One New Man 05:02 God’s Created Order and the Cleansing of Nations 07:01 Interpreting scripture in Context - Thrones Used to Rule 09:37 The Throne of David and God’s Covenant Promise 11:22 God’s Plan to Move His Capital to Earth.
