David is crowned king: Jesus Christ is crowned King.

 “When the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were the ones who buried Saul.” 2 Samuel 2:4

David was anointed king in the Judean valley of Hebron, where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were dead and buried. Their wives Sarah, Rebecca, and Leah were buried there with them. That was a sacred place and an act of nobility to be crowned king in the resting place of the sacred Patriarchs of the Israelites. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob gave birth to the Twelve Tribes of Israel and to Christianity. Jesus Christ is from the Tribe of Judah and born of a virgin birth by the Spirit of God.

Why would the Lord Jesus Christ want to be crowned King of kings in a place representing the death of Israel and the demise of Christianity? Because that represents the resurrection of all the faithful of the Tribes of Israel and all those born into the family of God through Jesus Christ. God is the God of the living not the dead, and Jesus Christ is the resurrection and life, as quoted, “But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” Matthew 22:31-32

The men of Jabesh Gilead gave Saul an honorable burial. They would not allow Saul’s body to be made a mockery of by being left hanging on the wall of the Philistines (their enemies) for all to see. Today, that would be like those who fear God and give honor to Israel in their death as Israel succumbs to the domination of the global government of the beast. “So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, “You are blessed of the Lord, for you have shown this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him. And now may the Lord show kindness and truth to you. I also will repay you this kindness, because you have done this thing.” 2 Samuel 2:5-6 For all of us who honor Israel, the Lord Jesus will show us kindness in the life to come.

“Now therefore, let your hands be strengthened, and be valiant; for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them.” 2 Samuel 2:7 As followers of Jesus Christ, we keep a watch on Israel to sense where we are in Bible prophecy. The word of God is telling us Israel is severely wounded, even to the point of death. That is a sure sign of Bible prophecy progressing forward and that Jesus Christ is coming back as the anointed and crowned King of kings. During this time, the Holy Spirit says to let our hands be strengthened and to be valiant. With the death of Israel, the intensity of global tribulation is on the horizon, global warming (Fourth Plague, Revelation 16:8-9) will play a role in the destruction of the power center of the beast (Fifth Plague Revelation 16:10), then the Battle of Armageddon happens (Sixth Plague Revelation 16) just before the return of the Lord Jesus (Seventh Trumpet and Seventh Plague).

The death of Israel is seen as the Israeli citizens riot and protest for their “democratic” rights as defined by the global culture. Those rights include the killing of the unborn, promotion and normalization of the LGBQT+ lifestyle, the elimination of the belief in God etc. They rebel against the “right wing” government of the State of Israel. They are living by the thing which forms what they think, feel, do, and say as it enables the image of the beast to live and speak through them. By what they say and do, they give power and authority to the goals of the global government of the beast (United Nations). They are being conformed to their place in the global culture as they are groomed to the mark of the beast.
