Today I was watching the news, and a congressman was being interviewed; he is trying to introduce an amendment to the constitution to protect a parents right to discipline their children, and to protect their right to take them to church.
He is doing this because the UN is wanting the authority over us in this country, and the world, to control parents ....The UN wants the right to step in if they think a parent is not raising their kids they way they see fit... We are in trouble folks and yet we do not turn to God, we look to man for our help!
Tea party's to protest the government are going on across the United States today. Few people realise that they are exposing themselves to be monitored and marked by their government. These people are trusting in the arm of their own flesh.
We are acting out Isaiah 30 in our time.
Saints this is the hour that we need to be able to hear the voice of The Lord...there are so many voices out there today...saying "This is the way", yet others saying "No this is the way"...Saints there is but one way...and that is God's Way!
If you read Isaiah chapter 30 you will see the picture for Israel and you will see the picture for any people who do not seek the Lord, but who rather look to the governing bodies for their help. You will see the picture of the day and hour in which we're living!
Isaiah 30:1-3
1. Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2. That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3. Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
This is the scourge that is in our land today, no one wants to hear the voice of the Lord, nor do they want to walk in His ways, we, like Israel, are a rebellious people
Isaiah 30: 9-11
9. That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
10. Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11. Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
What does God do with those who refuse to heed His council who cast His will aside to do their own?
Isaiah 30:12-17
12. Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13. Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
14. And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
15. For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not. 16. But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
17. One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on an hill.
God will have a remnant that is left after all the tribulation that is to come in the land there will be those who awake to the hour, and awake to their need of God's intervention...and they shall cry out....
The promise to those who will listen to the voice of The Lord
Isaiah 30:18-20
18. And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19. For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
20. And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
If only we would wait upon the Lord instead of trusing in the arm of the flesh, instead of looking to the government to save us...
God promises His direction by His Holy Spirit for His childrenIsaiah 30:21
And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
In that time saints, the children of God will cast aside those who they thought to be their covering, and they shall cast aside their idols, they shall forsake their graven images, those that they set in God's place in their temple.
Isaiah 30:22
22. Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.
The following verses place the time of all these things that shall come to pass.
Isaiah 30:26-30
26. Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
27. Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire: 28. And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29. Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
30. And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
Isaiah 30:33
33. For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
Those who dig a pit for others, shall turn and fall into that pit themselves. If only we would rely on the vengance of the Lord and trust in His Word instead of taking matters into our hands.
It is God that gives us Liberty, it is God that brings us Justice, it is God....how long will it take for this to get into the hearts of those who call themselves by His name. How long will it be before there is national repentance and the acknowledging of the Soveringty of The Most High God!
It is He who brings judgment that we may seek Him and He may show His Mercy!
