Isaiah 25:1-5 ESV
O Lord, you are my God;
I will exalt you; I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,
plans formed of old, faithful and sure.
For you have made the city a heap,
the fortified city a ruin;
the foreigners' palace is a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.
Therefore strong peoples will glorify you;
cities of ruthless nations will fear you.
For you have been a stronghold to the poor,
a stronghold to the needy in his distress,
a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat;
for the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall,
like heat in a dry place.
You subdue the noise of the foreigners;
as heat by the shade of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless is put down.
This reminds me much of Revelation 18 and the fall of
Babylon. And what or who is Babylon? That is a subject of much debate and
disagreement, but I believe it is clear that Babylon represents the world’s system
which has also infiltrated the church in these last days, at least here in America,
and I am certain in other nations, too. And I believe America is a perfect
location for this Babylon, for no one else is like her in having such global
influence.
And this is why Christians are being urged to come out of
Babylon lest we take part in her sins and in her punishment, for her sins are
heaped high as heaven and God has remembered her sins. So, she includes the
institutional and worldly market-driven false church which has abandoned the
Lord and the Holy Spirit and the gospel as Jesus taught it and has created her
own gospel which allows sin to still reign supreme in the life of the “believer.”
This here in Isaiah 25 and also in Revelation 18 also bring
to mind the attacks on the Twin Towers in New York, USA, on September 11, 2001.
There are many beliefs on what actually happened that day. The picture that the
Lord gave me, which has been solidified many times over, is not the official
narrative, but that of an inside job involving the US government and their
political allies so they could go to war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Yet, I believe the Lord allowed the events of that day to
take place as a judgment on the USA and as a judgment on God’s wayward people,
in order to bring them back to him. But it doesn’t appear that many have truly
repented, for the same stuff has continued in our nation and in the institutional
church, and things have been going from bad to worse. And the judgments are
continuing, still for the purpose to revive God’s people.
I can’t speak on the present situation between Russia and
Ukraine, but if history repeats itself, which it usually does, and then knowing
the plans that the US government and their NATO allies have for us, the people
of the world, I suspect that this is all not going to turn out for the good of
the people of Russia or Ukraine or the USA or the rest of the world. For they
are plotting the takeover of the world to bring us under the rule of the beast.
But the Scriptures prophesied such events as what we are
seeing take place in our daily news, although I would caution you against
believing your MSM news sources and even some not mainstream media news
sources, for so much today is under the control of this New World Order of the
beast of Revelation, and deception and manipulation of human minds abounds. So,
please test everything you are hearing with the Lord in prayer.
But it is in God’s plans to judge “Babylon,” to bring her
down, which I believe is already in process. And it is in God’s plans to revive
his people, otherwise why have the 7 letters beginning the book of Revelation
where Jesus is calling 5 of the 7 churches to repent of their sins or to face
some type of divine correction, discipline, and judgment. And why encourage the
repentant of a change of status with God because she overcame?
Isaiah 25:6-9 ESV
“On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
And he will swallow up on this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
the veil that is spread over all nations.
He will swallow up death forever;
and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces,
and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
for the Lord has spoken.
It will be said on that day,
‘Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us.
This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.’”
Going along with what has already been said, I believe the
Lord uses his judgments on the people of this world, and on nations, in order
to revive his people and to bring people to genuine faith in Jesus Christ, for
there will be people believing in Jesus even during the Tribulation. And the
Lord’s Bride will be purifying herself and making herself ready to meet her
husband. For, it was granted to her to clothe herself with righteous deeds (Rev
19:6-8).
And the Lord will swallow up the covering of deception that
is cast over all the peoples, for right now many are being deceived, not just
about Jesus Christ and his gospel of salvation, which is huge, but about what
is going on with our governments and in the various nations in the world. We can’t
just believe our politicians or government heads or even pastors of “churches”
right now, for deception abounds. We have to TEST EVERYTHING!
Through judgment the Lord does open blinded eyes to the
truth. And I believe that many people are going to have that veil lifted and
they will repent of their sins as things get worse, which they will, because
the Bible says they will, and because I know the evil that is being plotted
against us by evil people in high up positions within governments, and the
media, and the banking industry, and the technological industry, and Big Pharma,
etc.
And at the end of it all, the Lord is going to swallow up
death forever, and the Lord will wipe away tears from all faces of those who
trusted in him as Lord and Savior of their lives, who walked in his ways and in
his truth, and who did not make sin their practice, or who at the last minute
turned their lives over to Jesus Christ and repented of their evil ways and
were cleansed of their sins and made righteous before God. I believe some have
done that.
And “It will be said on that day,
‘Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us.
This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.’” Hallelujah! Amen!
For
Our Nation
An
Original Work / September 11, 2012
Bombs are bursting. Night is falling.
Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.
Trust Him with your life today.
Make Him your Lord and your Savior.
Turn from your sin. Follow Jesus.
He will forgive you of your sin;
Cleanse your heart, made new within.
Men betraying: Our trust fraying.
On our knees to God we’re praying,
Seeking God to give us answers
That are only found in Him.
God is sovereign over all things.
Nothing from His mind escaping.
He has all things under His command,
And will work all for good.
Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.
Men deceiving: we’re believing
In our Lord, and interceding
For our nation and its people
To obey their God today.
He is our hope for our future.
For our wounds He offers suture.
He is all we need for this life.
Trust Him with your life today.
